Book House Strange Talk

Chapter 41 The Great Escape Room

is a dummy.

Liu Hua had goosebumps when he came back to his senses. Fortunately, he was a dummy. God knows what he was thinking, so he immediately had his head veiled.

This dummy was modified from a sex doll, made of silicone, and it was extraordinarily realistic in this lighting environment. Liu Hua thought it was a real person sitting there, so he took a step back in fright.

It was the first time Tai Yi saw this kind of doll, he couldn't help feeling a little curious, and tentatively touched the dummy's face.

It's soft, but it still has the toughness of silicone. He looked at Xing Yang and whispered, "Hey, come and touch it, it actually feels like this!"

Out of the corner of his eye, the dummy's eyes moved, as if casting a glance at him, Tai Yi looked over immediately but found nothing.

Tai Yi thought to himself: The first time you moved may be because my eyes were wrong, but the second time it was you who showed your tail.

A boy pointed at the dummy with a trembling voice and said, "It moved! She, she made a move!"

Tai Yi was the closest to the dummy, and heard that he pinched the dummy's face with a little strength, if this was a real person, his cheeks would have turned red with such strength.

"No, you're wrong, I didn't see her when I was so close." Tai Yi said, still staring at the dummy. He could feel something inside the dummy, and he couldn't get out of it. Angry.

The hearts of these people went up and down, and the girl named Xiaoya couldn't stand it anymore, and asked in a low voice if she wanted to talk to the clerk about adjusting the npc's sense of terror.

Tai Yi and the two have no objection, he feels that the scary ghost in this room has no malicious intentions, just like playing hide-and-seek with you.

He didn't choose this store randomly. When Liu Hua proposed to play this escape room, he just randomly searched Dianping which store had a high score, but he saw more than a dozen low scores. The comment said that after coming back, he had a serious illness and had constant nightmares every day. He felt that something was offending him, so he dared not go again.

More than a dozen player comments, based on a minimum of 6 people to open the room, will be 100 people less, which is a big deal.

Tai Yi's first reaction was that the store was not clean, and the customers were entangled, but after he came, he found that although the store was not clean, it would not make the customers sick and nightmare, there should be something else, but he didn't have it now. What clue.

"Zi la - zi la - hello - zi la -"

I don't know if the walkie-talkie is broken or the signal is not good. The shop assistant's voice came intermittently from inside. Liu Hua struggled to communicate, and I don't know if the other party heard it clearly.

Several people looked at each other in blank dismay, and the atmosphere became strange for a while.

A girl broke the deadlock and suggested: "Let's, let's look for clues first, and then open the door."

It was inconvenient for Tai Yi to say directly, "There is a ghost in this room, but you can rest assured that the other party is very friendly", so he searched for clues in silence.

The silicone dummy was a girl's body, and Tai Yi asked the two girls to come over because it was inconvenient to find clues. Tai Yi also thoughtfully covered the dummy's head.

The girl named Xiaoya closed her eyes and took out a piece of paper with blood on it and a small portrait of a man and a woman standing face to face from the dummy's chest. The young master said that she originally had a childhood sweetheart who was engaged.

There is also a dowry box in the room that needs to be opened by the player, and the password is hidden on the blood book.

The dowry box is not fastened tightly, and it can be slightly lifted by force. Unfortunately, the light in this room is too dim, and without a flashlight, I can't see anything clearly.

Xing Yang was very curious about the contents of the box, and he was too embarrassed to squeeze into a group of young people to participate in solving the puzzle, so he squatted next to the dowry box and picked at the crack.

Tai Yi knocked his shoulder with his knee, and asked in a low voice, "What are you doing? Can you see what's inside?"

Xing Yang: "I can't see it, but it smells good."

Tai Yi became interested, and squatted down to smell the smell coming from the crack of the box.

After smelling it for a while, he looked at Xing Yang with a strange expression, and took a deep breath closer as if confirming, Tai Yi covered the box to let Xing Yang stop smelling it.

What a nice smell, a smell of blood, Xing Yang, who was born on the battlefield, naturally has a good impression of the smell of blood.

Just when Liu Hua and the others came over to try to unlock the lock, Tai Yi said, "You guys think I'll open it."

"6249? Try it."

Tai Yi tried for a while but failed to open it, and reported a few more numbers. After trying the last number, he heard a "click", Tai Yi slowly opened the box and sighed in his heart that it must not be something bloody.

A bloody human head and a key are in the box. The key should open the door to the next room. As for the human head...

"Fake, don't look at it, try the key to see if you can open the door." Tai Yi spoke first and handed the key to Liu Hua, and quickly closed the box while talking.

Maybe it was because Tai Yi's tone was too firm or because they were afraid of the fear caused by that look just now, these people really believed what Tai Yi said, and they didn't say they wanted to come up to touch it curiously.

A hot piece of knowledge: If people are not curious, they will not kill the cat.

As for whether it is true or not, only Tai Yi and Xing Yang can know.

The portrait found on the chest of the silicone dummy in the previous step has no facial features, but a mole can be seen on the man's face.

"Oh! I see! The head in the dowry box is the bride's childhood sweetheart!" said a boy.

The person who took the key to test the door lock said that the key did not open the door, so they looked around for anything with a lock in the house.

Xing Yang asked for the key to try the door lock again. The key was inserted smoothly and could be turned, but the lock would not spring open. He squatted down and took a closer look at the lock.

Since you can hear the "click" sound of opening the lock, it means that the key is correct, unless...something is messing with it.

Liu Hua even searched under the bed, but there was nothing: "There is nowhere. The only lock that can be opened with a key in this room is the one on the door. Have you found it?"

Those students also shook their heads, discussed a few words and decided to use the walkie-talkie again, this time the signal was much better.

"Hello, are there any other locks in this room? We have really searched carefully, and we haven't found a second place that needs a key."

The staff said: "I'm really sorry, maybe the lock has been rusted for a long time, and the key in the dowry box is used to open the lock."

After getting an affirmative answer, everyone turned their eyes to Xing Yang who was holding the key. Xing Yang inserted the key again, but still couldn't open it.

Tai Yi felt that something was wrong, he was so close, he could hear the "click" sound of unlocking the lock clearly, he slammed his body hard on the door a few times trying to loosen the lock, it didn't matter these few times, the light was already dim It began to flicker and flash, and there was an eager sound of soles rubbing against the ground outside the window.

A pale face was pressed against the small window looking at them.

The two couples shrank to the corner of the wall next to the door. The coolness came from the wall through the t-shirts, but the solid feeling behind them gave them a sense of security.

Tai Yi took half a step forward and slightly raised his hand to protect Liu Hua behind him, looking into the eyes outside the window, and asked Liu Hua in a low voice: "Do you remember what clothes the NPC who chased us was wearing before entering the house?" ?”

Liu Hua nodded, he looked back several times out of curiosity so he remembered it clearly: "It's a long red dress."

Tai Yi said again: "Then look at this one outside now, what are you wearing?"

"Yes, it's a wedding dress!" Liu Hua grabbed his shoulder and shouted in a low voice. After he finished speaking, he closed his eyes and put his forehead on Tai Yi's shoulder, as if he would not be afraid.

"Ahhh-!!!"

There was a wave of unrest and another wave, and the face at the window hadn't left yet, and there was a sudden movement of the door next to them being smashed.

The girl holding the walkie-talkie immediately pressed the button and shouted: "Didn't you say there is only one NPC?!"

The tone is fear and anger.

This time the walkie-talkie didn't even give a buzzing sound, and there was no echo at all.

Xing Yang frowned and sighed: "Don't press it, there is no signal, the clerk is right, there is only one NPC."

Xing Yang's voice is deep and deep, if it is the voice of a mature man who would make people blush in normal times, but at this moment when he said it calmly, it makes the hair stand on end.

Liu Hua looked at Xing Yang and asked the question everyone present wanted to ask: "Then... which one is the NPC, which one is, what is that...?"

Xing Yang grinned at Liu Hua and said, "Surprise, neither of the two are NPCs."

Tai Yi: "..."

He gave Xing Yang a look, which is too straightforward, what if something frightens someone.

Xing Yang raised his eyebrows and walked up to the four people and raised his hand. The four people kept their postures motionless as if they were frozen. Xing Yang looked at Liu Hua again: "Do you want to be with us? Or stay with them this?"

Liu Hua looked at Tai Yi in a panic, and then at the four people: "I, I, I, stay here too! Wait for me to find a position!"

Xing Yang nodded, he also felt that Liu Hua was safer here, after Liu Hua squatted close to those four people, he raised his hand and Liu Hua was the same as those four people.

Tai Yi went to the small window and squatted down slightly to meet the grimace. He said to Xing Yang, "Do you think they have no malicious intentions, but more like stopping us from going out."

Xing Yang took out the small mirror that he saw in the first room from his pocket. The open-closed round mirror can be grasped with only one hand, and the carved pattern on the cover contains the dirt and dust accumulated over time.

Tai Yi took it over and opened the mirror, a delicate woman's face appeared in the mirror, frowning a little sullenly.

This face was exactly the same as the one outside the small window.

Tai Yi didn't intend to let her in, knocked on the glass and asked her what she was going to do, the female ghost outside the window opened her mouth to show Tai Yi, her tongue was gone, she couldn't speak, and she looked at him sadly .

"Oh, come in then." Tai Yi had no choice but to open the door to let her in, and the knocking on the other door stopped as soon as the ghost came in.

"Do you know sign language?" Tai Yi asked.

The female ghost shook her head.

"Coincidentally, neither will I."

Xing Yang: "..."

"Then I'll ask you a few questions, nod if yes, shake your head if no."

The female ghost sat on the wooden bed and brushed her temples and nodded towards Tai Yi, seeing Xing Yang who was standing on the other side moved aside in fear.

Tai Yi asked her: "Did you bring it from this mirror?"

Seeing her nodding, she asked, "You're not the only ghost here, right?"

The female ghost nodded and showed him two fingers.

"There are two including you..." Tai Yi said, "You don't want us to go out, right? Is that male or female?"

The female ghost wrote the word "female" on the palm of her hand, turned her head and looked in the direction of the other door worriedly, as if she was afraid of another ghost coming.

"What happened to those who came before?"

The female ghost opened her mouth to say something, but remembering that she had lost her tongue, she stretched out her hand towards them, motioning for them to put their hands on hers.

Xing Yang and Tai Yi looked at each other, and both stretched out a hand to put on her hand, fragmentary and unclear pictures rushed into their minds.

She is the owner of this small mirror, she forgot why she was attached to the mirror and refused to leave, and stayed in the world in a daze until she was picked up by the owner of this shop.

When the boss saw this dusty mirror in his hometown in the country, he just thought it matched his shop very well, so he put it here as a prop without thinking much about it.

In order for the boss to have more atmosphere, he found many items in this store from second-hand dealers, or collected them from the countryside, so there must be some unclean things.

This is the case with the second ghost besides the mirror ghost.

Tai Yi asked her: "What is she attached to?"

The mirror ghost gesticulated with them for a long time, you drew and I guessed it was a screen, and after confirming that the screen happened to be in the theme of the secret room, Tai Yi put a scale in each of the four pockets, and no one dared to come if the dragon scale was protecting it look for a job.

Xing Yang pulled out the Dragon Scale Sword and broke open the door lock. A gust of wind came straight towards the door of the two of them. Like a prank or a provocation, they stepped out of the door carefully and entered the third room.

The third room was very small, to the extent that it would be full if all six players came in. There was only a coffin placed against the wall, and the coffin was covered with a gap half a palm wide.

Tai Yi took out a few beans from his pocket and sprinkled them on the ground. The soybeans fell to the ground and turned into rats and ran to the four corners of the room. After there was nothing abnormal, he directed them to get into the coffin again.

The mice went in and came out again, crawling back to Tai Yi's palm one by one, and turned into soybeans again.

Xing Yang pushed the lid of the coffin away to understand why it was placed close to the wall—the coffin was empty, and the coffin board on the side of the wall was cut into a square hole to connect to the next room. You have to get into the coffin and squat down to move into the fourth room.

Xing Yang complained: "Don't you deserve to recruit dirty things? This boss has something wrong with his mind, let a living person get into a coffin?"

Tai Yi was also very speechless, this is really not going to die if you don't die, suddenly a little depressed, he really can't be bothered to take care of this kind of trouble caused by himself.

Xing Yang squeezed his face and stepped into the coffin, saying: "Okay, let's move on, we will be in the same coffin once."

Tai Yi broke down as a puppy and criticized his face: "You don't want to be romantic in this kind of place, okay?"

Tai Yi held Xing Yang's hand and stood up, feeling that his trouser legs were being caught and looked down to see Liu Hua.

"My god, this is too scary! Brother Tai, please help me!" Liu Hua cried and mourned, as if his legs were so weak that he couldn't stand up.

Tai Yi raised his eyebrows and looked at him playfully, and pulled Liu Hua's clothes up for him, and the four students who followed Liu Hua also crawled out of the cave one by one, looking stunned.

Tai Yi and Xing Yang whispered: "You said those people who came to play before, are they people or ghosts who team up with them in the end?"

Xing Yang pouted: "Who knows."

After the two whispered, Xing Yang walked towards the five of them. Liu Hua took a few steps back when he saw him: "Mr. Xing, what are you doing...you are so scary!"

Xing Yang patted Liu Hua's head affectionately: "It's quite a pretense, they don't have any brains."

After all, one sword and one sword, the five people who were alive one second turned into five deflated skins piled on the ground in the next second.

"It's kind of disgusting." Tai Yi concluded.

The fourth room was decorated like a living room, with a four-panel screen placed in the innermost part of the room, Tai Yi thought, this should be the screen that the mirror ghost said.

The paintings on the screen are weird and strange, the patterns of the fans are different but the content is connected, the first one is a strange red peach blossom; the second one is a white bone standing on a stone table under the peach blossom, and the white bone is drawing eyebrows on human skin; The third one is a few beauties put on a side, all of them are extremely beautiful; the fourth one is a lot of beauties tied together and standing together, all of them crying with hideous faces.

Xing Yang: "Painted Skin Ghost, Aunt Ping's family."

Tai Yi shook his head, and retorted: "It's not a painted skin ghost, it's a painting that has been mastered."

Tai Yi clicked on the real body of Jingmei, and saw the skeleton on the screen put the human skin on the stone table on his body, threw the paintbrush, and many little ghosts ran out from nowhere in the painting and threw themselves on the group of beauties, wanting to take the human skin Pulling it off, the screams of those beauties really came from the screen, blood seeped out from the silk cloth continuously, Xing Yang cut the screen fan with a sword, and the painted skin ghost on the painting Shi Shi ran off from the painting Fight with the two of them.

The spirits in the painting are different from ordinary ghosts. Their figures are as ethereal as mist and wind, and they are full of temptation like mermaids in the sea, luring poor prey into their mouths.

Although Xing Yang and Tai Yi would not be confused, they still struggled to fight.

The five slumped human skins behind him also stood up, their soft but stiff joints broke into the battle and made trouble.

Tai Yi handed the screen ghost to Xing Yang and turned around to solve the five. The weakness of the painted skin ghost is the heart, which is hollow inside and only the heart has a spirit. Tai Yi stretched out his long sword and stabbed at one of the hearts, and it really changed as expected. The empty skins were spread out on the ground.

Xing Yang also attacked at the heart of the screen ghost at first, and the three swords stabbed at the same position, but there was no change in it. Tai Yi reminded him: "Xing Yang! Try the dantian!"

The screen ghost sideways dodged Xing Yang's sword, quickly looked back at Tai Yi who was standing in front of the screen, and beckoned the remaining painted skin ghosts out of the screen.

The originally small room was in a mess. At first Tai Yi was worried about losing money if he damaged the props in the room, but now he doesn't care about that much anymore. If he loses money, he will lose money. Anyway, Xing Yang has money.

He and Xing Yang confronted the screen ghost one after the other, and at the moment it disappeared, the painted skin ghosts also disappeared.

Looking at the mess in the room, Tai Yi looked at Xing Yang with big innocent eyes, and said, "Pay the money."

Xing Yang put away the sword, sighed, and the two returned to the room where Liu Hua and the others were. The mirror ghost was relieved to see that they were safe and sound, Tai Yi shook the mirror at her and said, "I have to take it away for you, you You can’t stay here all the time, it’s not good if you hurt someone, okay?”

The mirror ghost nodded, and obediently got into the mirror.Xing Yang released the restraint for those five, Liu Hua got up and rushed towards Tai Yi, but his legs became numb after squatting for too long and he fell to the ground. Long.

"Let's all go, don't solve the puzzle, I can't solve it." Tai Yi urged everyone to go out, and the five of them followed the mother duck (Tai Yi) closely like ducklings as they walked forward without daring to breathe. They reached the last room That is to say, the screen house didn't know what to say when they saw this miserable state, most of the props were destroyed, and they didn't know where to find the clues to open the door.

Xing Yang pressed the pager and asked the clerk to open the door. The clerk was a little confused when he saw the mess from the monitor that finally returned to normal. He didn't know how to deal with it. Xing Yang asked the clerk to call the boss to discuss compensation.

The four students kept thanking Tai Yi, and Tai Yi grabbed a candy from the front desk and gave them one by one, and then sent the four of them to the store and said: "Eat a candy slowly, don't go out and go straight Come home, do you hear me?"

The four of them nodded and ate the candy obediently, and within a few seconds they looked at each other in blank dismay.

"What are we going to do?"

"I forgot too, how did I get here."

"What did we do just now? Why can't I remember, where did we go after lunch?"

"I don't know...but I'm so tired, why don't I go home."

Listening to the four people talking and leaving, Liu Hua opened his eyes wide in shock, glanced at them, then at Tai Yi, Tai Yi hooked Liu Hua's neck and smiled and handed him a piece of candy.

"Eat it? Eat a piece of candy slowly?"

Liu Hua looked at Tai Yi with a complex expression and opened his mouth to speak. After a long time, his face turned red, and then he could hold back a few words: "You just... and you and Teacher Xing, you two..."

Tai Yi quickly tore off the candy wrapper for him and stuffed it into his mouth, lovingly touching his head. After a few seconds, Liu Hua looked at him blankly and asked, "Tai Yi? What are you doing here? What am I doing?" Well, why am I here...? Hey? Why is Teacher Xing here too?"

Tai Yi said: "Are you stupid? Didn't you just tell me that you were going to stroll home? It's almost dinner time. If you don't go back, your mother should blame you."

Liu Hua slapped his forehead, as if he really remembered: "Oh, yes, yes, my brain, then I'll go first!"

Xing Yang came over and pinched Tai Yi's face, Tai Yi asked him: "It's all over? So fast!"

"No, the boss is out of town. I left my contact information and waited for the boss to come back to talk about compensation. Let's go have dinner and think about what to eat."

Tai Yi patted him on the arm, and said: "Don't just pay him stupidly, you've done him a great favor. He doesn't know how much it will cost to hire someone to solve it. Besides, it's you who do it, you hear me?"

"Yeah, I heard, do you want to eat stir-fried vegetables or western food?"

"Eat western food, eat something Aunt Ping can't cook..."

The commercial street is crowded with people, because there are a lot of young people on the street during the holidays, Tai Yi and Xing Yang squeezed into the crowd and held hands, just like those male and female couples talking about funny things, the summer night in the north comes late, shopping malls The fountain in front of us has just been lit up, and this dull day is about to pass.
