Horror Variety Survival Record
Chapter 1
"You can't survive the next round at your level, just wait to die."
Lu Youyi's vicious curse was played back and forth in Ke Chun's mind over and over again. He covered his ears tightly with the quilt, but his voice was amplified over and over again.
At that moment, Ke Chun felt that the person in front of him who should be very familiar was so strange.
Ke Chun participated in a comprehensive music competition variety show called "The Road to the God of Songs".
And that person was the opponent he personally eliminated in the first round of the PK match, and he was also the first close friend he made on this show, and he even had a little liking for him.
Sing the songs you like to the people you like.
This has always been Ke Chun's wish. When he got the song "Simple Love" and his opponent was Lu Youyi, he even thought it was worth the round.
Unexpectedly, there was an accident in Lu Youyi's performance, the score was immediately cleared, and Ke Chun was directly promoted.
Lu Youyi on the stage angrily pointed at the host's nose and cursed: "You go back on your promises! I will report you tomorrow! Don't think I don't know about your dirty deeds! I will ruin the show!"
Ke Chungang wanted to go forward to comfort him, but he said the curse, so he could only stand there stupidly, watching Lu Youyi leave the scene angrily.
Subsequent programs continued as usual, as if this scene had never happened.
Ke Chun turned over on the bed, thinking about it carefully, it was too unnatural.
What does Lu Youyi mean by "returning on one's promise", "acting", and "reporting"?
Meaning is there something wrong with this show?Is it an illegal recording?
But on the day of the audition, the whole city was a sensation, and all the major media came to interview it, wouldn't it be so?
To say that this castle is strange is indeed a bit strange.
From the moment they move into the castle, the contestants must turn in their mobile phones and other communication devices, and cannot go out. Eating, sleeping, rehearsals, and game recording are all carried out in this luxurious three-story castle.
There is only one staff member in the entire castle, who is the housekeeping girl who is responsible for cleaning and cooking.
No camera, no PD, no make-up, no costumes, just the 50 contestants they participated in the show.
Cameras are installed in every corner of the castle, even the door of the toilet. Every move of the contestants is under surveillance at all times, as if there are countless pairs of eyes staring at you from morning till night.
The director of the program group never showed up, and all instructions and tasks were conveyed to the contestants through the large screen hanging in the lobby on the first floor.
The most incredible thing is that, as a music competition variety show, no instructors or judges are invited, and all teaching is conducted through the TV in the rehearsal room on the second floor.The TV not only has the function of watching, but also can interact with the players, and flexibly adjust the teaching according to the players' reactions.
Although artificial intelligence is indeed developing very well now, it may cost a lot of money to reach this level.
Ke Chun majored in media at university, so when he saw such a big deal, he felt a sense of admiration and yearning in his heart.
In addition to using artificial intelligence for rehearsals, even games are scored by machines.
Take their first round of PK competition that just ended today as an example. The scoring criteria are intonation and rhythm. The program group introduced a scoring system similar to the national karaoke. In the end, those with higher scores will advance and those with lower scores will be eliminated.
Not only the scoring, but also the lighting and camera are controlled remotely. There is no lighting engineer or cameraman on site, and naturally there are no audiences.Even the host was particularly elusive, and he could hardly be found after stepping off the stage, as if he was invisible.
This series of abnormal points, combined with what Lu Youyi said today, made Ke Chun suspicious.
Fully intelligent program recording is not impossible with the current technology, but few program groups will spend such a large amount of money to do these unnecessary operations.
However, this form of recording is not considered illegal recording, so what can be reported?
Ke Chun plunged into the exploration, always feeling that he still missed something.
He tried hard to search for that forgotten thing in his brain, and when the strings in his brain were perfectly connected, he couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine.
There is a room in this castle that cannot be opened.
It was discovered when a few people in their dormitory explored together the day they first moved into the castle. It was in the corridor west of the lobby on the first floor and went all the way to the end.
There was a double iron door with a rusty ring lock on the handle.A thick layer of dust had accumulated on the lock, so it must have been untouched for a long time.
The style of this iron door is too weird, it is incompatible with the warm interior of the whole villa, it seems to be something from another dimension.
What's even more peculiar is that none of the cameras in the castle can be seen in the corridor leading to the iron gate, which means that this corridor is the only place in the castle that is not monitored. To put it in extreme terms That is, any illegal activities you do here will not be recorded.
Ke Chun wrapped the quilt tighter, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
Could it be that the program team is going to do some shameless things through this corridor and this secret room?
And Lu Youyi knew this incident unintentionally, so he said that when he was eliminated.
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that he was inseparable. He couldn't lie down anymore, and sat up from the bed. At that moment, there was a loud bang outside, which almost scared him out of his wits.
After the loud noise, everything returned to calm.
Ke Chun pressed his chest, and his beating heart was still beating his chest forcefully.
He swallowed, his stomach growling.
From night to now, he hasn't taken in a drop of water, tears are streaming down his face, and his energy is almost exhausted.
He decided to go out and find something to refresh his hunger, and calm down his panic by the way.
He got out of bed, walked to the door lightly, put his ear to the door and listened for a while, making sure that there was no sound outside, and then opened the door to go out to look for food.
Ke Chun's dormitory is on the east side of the second floor, and there are stairs on the east side when he goes out. He went downstairs along the stairs, and unconsciously glanced at the west corridor opposite. The faint yellow ceiling light was on safely, and everything was as usual.
He emboldened a little, took two steps there, looked around, and there was another protest from his stomach, so he didn't go any further, and trotted the cat into the kitchen.
He found a banana from the refrigerator, poured himself another glass of milk, turned on the microwave, and then leaned against the sink to finish eating before going upstairs.
The bright environment of the kitchen made him feel safe again, and the guessing in his mind just now became particularly dreamy, and Ke Chun couldn't help laughing.
Something was really wrong today, he must be in a bad mood to think about it, maybe Lu Youyi did know something, but it is possible for him to curse the program group in a moment of anger.After all, with such a large-scale production of a program, with hundreds of millions of eyes staring at it across the country, what outrageous things can be done?
The banana in his hand was sweet, and the milk was warm, and Ke Chun felt very satisfied when it entered his stomach.
He quickly finished the late dinner, took a tissue to wipe his hands, and prepared to go upstairs for a good night's sleep.
It's already two o'clock, and I have to get up early tomorrow to welcome the release of the new mission.
Unexpectedly, when he was about to leave, suddenly a figure flashed into the kitchen, and that person looked out like a thief.
Ke Chun couldn't hold back his surprise, and let out a short scream.
The man was also taken aback, turned his head and looked at each other.
"what."
This person is none other than Ke Chun's roommate Lang Qiu.
He was wearing black baggy pajamas, and his hair was messy and sweaty.
The pair of indifferent eyes in the sunken eye sockets stared at Ke Chun like two sharp knives.
"Are you hungry too?" Ke Chun smiled awkwardly, "I didn't wake you up, did I?"
He and this roommate have not spoken more than ten sentences in total since the first day they met, because Lang Qiu always exudes a kind of aura that strangers should not get close to. Ignore it, one person can sit there all afternoon, plus he looks foreign, with sunken eye sockets and a high nose bridge, and a very good figure, if he didn't know that this is a living person, he would really think it was a statue.
Although Ke Chun had no choice but to be used to his indifference, he wanted to say hello and go back to the room first, but he didn't expect Lang Qiu to ignore him this time.
"Why are you here?"
A question without temperature.
Ke Chun felt elated, and quickly lifted the banana peel in his hand: "I'm hungry."
Hearing this sentence, Lang Qiu showed a relaxed expression.
"What's wrong with you?" Ke Chun thought that this was a good opportunity to get closer to each other, so he took advantage of the situation and asked.
Lang Qiu shook his head, opened the refrigerator, opened a can of Coke, and gulped down half a cup with the mouth of the cup.
"Did you hear the loud noise just now?" Ke Chun continued to actively find topics.
Lang Qiu changed his usual indifference, put down the Coke in his hand, stared at Ke Chun seriously, with a cold light in his eyes, and said word by word: "Forget about what happened tonight, play well, and you must not be eliminated."
The word "must" was emphasized by his accent, but Ke Chun couldn't understand it.
He didn't think Lang Qiu was so optimistic about him, why did he encourage him in the middle of the night?
But no matter what, since the other party encouraged him, he had to respond politely: "Oh, you too, we all have to work hard."
Lang Qiu hooked the corners of his lips, how to say that smile, showing a sneer with a bit of disdain, and then stood beside Li Kechun.
Ke Chun was also very embarrassed when he stood up like that. Is this the first time the chat is over?Is it possible to disband and return to the house?
Then Ke Chun said hello, and walked out of the kitchen to go back to sleep.
Unexpectedly, Lang Qiu also followed closely, and followed Ke Chun closely along the way.
Although he didn't say a word, the sound of solid footsteps made Ke Chun's heart feel more at ease in the darkness.
Maybe this guy isn't that difficult to live with?Ke Chun couldn't help but comment in his heart.
Back in the dormitory, Lang Qiu's snoring sounded soon.
But Ke Chun tossed and turned on the bed, going through the whole day again.
Lu Youyi's abnormal performance, a loud noise in the middle of the night, and Lang Qiu's inexplicable encouragement, everything seems to be fake. Maybe when you open your eyes tomorrow, you will start again today?
Thinking of these things, Ke Chun's consciousness slowly sank.
At this time, he still doesn't know that everything on this day is just the opening prelude to the strange events, and even more terrifying events are waiting for him one after another.
Chapter 2
As the sun rose, warm light poured into the lobby of the castle from the high glass windows, covering the floor, walls, and cabinets with a soft halo.
In the bright lobby, a group of well-dressed young guys gathered together, chatting noisily.
"Hey, did you all hear the loud noise last night?"
"There must be a ghost in that secret room!"
"I heard that this land used to be a cemetery!"
"No, how did I hear that there was a big hole hit by a meteorite before? Do you remember the big meteor shower ten years ago? It was missed in the news. A meteor deviated from the expected track and went here with a bang. Fortunately, there was a wasteland nearby at that time, and there were no casualties."
"I don't know when I built a castle, do you know?"
"Your local people don't know, how can we outsiders know?"
"Hush, the lowest score is here."
Ke Chun came out of the cafeteria after breakfast with swollen eyes. At nine o'clock this morning, the rules for the second round of competition were announced.
Everyone in the lobby looked at him like a rare animal.
Yesterday he went straight back to the dormitory after getting off the stage, without saying hello to these brothers at all, maybe they were a little upset about it?
"Good morning, everyone." Ke Chun took the initiative to wave and greet.
Some people avoided his sight indifferently, some people smiled at him politely, and only one man approached him kindly and asked, "Did you not sleep well last night?"
This man's name is Xi Wenyao, he is a fat and reliable big boy, and Ke Chun has a good impression of him.
"Well, it's a little uncomfortable..."
Ke Chun and Lu Youyi were inseparable every day before. Everyone knew that they were very good brothers, so Xi Wenyao understood immediately when he said this, and walked over to pat him on the back to comfort him: "It's okay, there are always winners and losers in the game. We are still friends."
Ke Chun gave a soft "hmm", and heard the players around him start chatting again.
"Hey, have you heard such a story? There used to be such an old castle that would make strange noises every night, thud-dang-dang-pound-pound-pound!" This buddy imitated the onomatopoeia vividly, He also made a beating gesture with his hands, which is very deep in the play.
A circle of people around him waited intently for the next plot.
"Guess what that sound is?"
Everyone swallowed, and someone asked in a low voice, "What's that sound?"
"It's the hostess of this house who is cooking!"
"Damn!" Everyone sighed in disappointment and waved their hands one after another. Just as they were about to disperse, the buddy who told the story hurriedly stopped everyone and said in a very low and gloomy voice: "The meat she chopped belongs to her man."
The temperature in the lobby dropped suddenly, as if a gust of wind had blown through, everyone's spine felt chills, and they all shivered.
Someone asked, "Do you think the lean meat porridge this morning is particularly delicious?"
Silence spread in the air.
The buddy who told the story also panicked, and took the lead to break the merit: "Damn, I'm all lying, don't take it seriously!" When he said this, his voice was a little trembling.
At this moment, the big screen suddenly lit up, saving the increasingly weird atmosphere in time.
On the screen is a man in black clothes and a black mask, who is their director, nicknamed Hei Bang.
"Congratulations to all of you here for the promotion. You all performed very well." It was a very official sentence without any tone.
"Now I will announce the rules of the second round of the competition. The second round is the individual points competition, and you need to choose one of the next 25 songs for live singing."
"The judging criterion this time is 'feeling'. At that time, 500 audiences will watch your concert live online. They will cast a sacred vote for being moved to their stage. Each vote counts as one point, and the final statistics Score ranking, the top ten successfully advanced."
There was an uproar at the scene.
25 into 10, this is already more than half of the elimination rate.
Ke Chun's heart tightened as well. He knew his singing level. In the first round of competition, his score was the last among the advanced contestants. If he wanted to advance, the key word was "moving people with emotion", but his tone was not complete. Can the singing really move the audience?Even he himself didn't have the confidence.
"However," director Black Stick changed the subject, "the two ranked first and second have a special right, they can choose two of the 15 people who rank lower to advance."
As soon as this remark came out, everyone raised doubts, wondering why the program group would set it up like this.
But the director did not explain this, but went into the next explanation: "The rehearsal time for this round is three days, during these three days you can form teams of two freely, and all rehearsal sessions must be with two people. "
"Since the current number is 25, there must be one bye, and this person will form a group by itself. Team formation will not affect the game points. Next, I will give you an hour of free team formation and song selection time. After one hour, please Tell me your grouping and song selection through the computer device under the big screen. Now the timer starts."
After saying this, the big screen went dark.
All the contestants looked at each other, thinking about this strange group rehearsal.
Since it is an individual points competition, why should it be divided into groups?What's more, the grouping does not affect the final points.
But when everyone started teaming up, they realized what it meant.
The two players with the highest scores in the first round had already lined up in front of them, and everyone wanted to be with them. The reason was simple—the number one No.2 in this round could be directly selected to advance.
Whether it is by strength or relationship, as long as they can advance, everything will be fine.
Ke Chun looked at Lang Qiu in the middle of the crowd. His score ranked second among all the players in the first round.
He was very annoyed that the trick of approaching the water tower could not be used, and then looked around him, there was no one, standing alone like a small tree, miserable and miserable.
Also, who would want to be with the last one?
After Lang Qiu chatted with each team volunteer, he finally chose a boy with fashionable clothes and good looks.
That person, Ke Chun, remembered that his name was Kuai Anhe, and he was very gentle in his dealings with others, with the elegance of a little prince in his gestures.
He sighed silently again, thinking in his heart, and didn't expect Lang Qiu to be willing to be with him.
It's just that Ke Chun couldn't help being anxious when he saw that all the little friends around him had found their partners.
Every time he took the initiative to attack, he was ruthlessly rejected. After five, six, seven or eight times, he was also discouraged and wanted to listen to the fate. Anyway, it depends on the individual in the end. No no.
In the end, there were three people left on the scene who were not in a group.
Ke Chun, Xi Wenyao, and a cool man—Bo Yiran.
Ke Chun belonged to no one wanted, Xi Wenyao took the initiative to give in, and Bo Yiran did not participate in the whole process.
At this time, Ke Chun and Xi Wenyao still stared and expressed embarrassment, but Bo Yiran voluntarily withdrew: "I'll be alone. In the end, it depends on my personal performance. On the contrary, I can seriously prepare by myself."
So, Ke Chun and Xi Wenyao formed a team.
Although he felt a little guilty towards Bo Yiran, Ke Chun was more at ease. After choosing the song, he couldn't wait to take Xi Wenyao to lunch.
Now that a partner has been formed, it is natural to understand each other.
In the process of eating and chatting with Xi Wenyao, Ke Chun found that Xi Wenyao is really a very good person.He came to the show this time to satisfy his girlfriend's wish.
"Me, my only specialty is singing. My girlfriend saw the recruitment advertisement for this show, amateurs can also go, so she got a brainstorm and helped me sign up. Before I came, he also told me that if I saw a star To get her an autograph. You see, I still have this copy with me."
Xi Wenyao took out a palm-sized booklet from his pocket. The cover was all pink and full of flowers, full of girlishness.
Ke Chun sighed: "I can understand. My mother also chases stars, and she took special care of me before I came. It's a pity that our show doesn't seem to have any big stars."
"That Kuai Anhe, do you know?" Xi Wenyao asked.
"Ah, the one with Lang Qiu? What's the matter?"
Xi Wenyao introduced him in a decent manner: "He should be regarded as relatively well-known among us."
"Huh? Actor? Singer?" Ke Chun leaned forward and became interested.
"Let's count it as a singer. I heard one of his albums a few years ago, and he sang very well, but I haven't listened to his other works since that album. I thought he stopped singing. I saw him here. His kind of professional singer came here to crush us." Xi Wenyao sighed as he spoke.
Ke Chun tried to comfort him: "Don't say that, your first round results are not far behind him, you have to be confident."
Xi Wenyao smiled: "I would like to be eliminated and go home early. You know that a nine-to-five worker really can't adapt to this environment of being monitored 24 hours a day."
"What about your job? Resigned?"
Xi Wenyao shook his hand in panic: "How can I? Work is my life. I will explain the situation to the leader. Anyway, I have to leave in a few rounds. I just asked for two weeks off."
"Oh..." Ke Chun took a sip of the meal, thinking about himself, reckoning it was only this round, his interest sank again, and the meal became dull.
Xi Wenyao was calm, he put a piece of braised pork in his mouth and chewed it with relish.
"Has our chef changed? The taste of this meat is indeed much better than the previous two days." He praised sincerely.
Ke Chun also discovered that all the meat products in the cafeteria today are particularly tasty, and the meat is tender and tender, which makes people want to stop.
But there should only be Hongyu—the housekeeping girl invited by the program group—as the chef. This skill has improved by leaps and bounds, which is surprising.
The two ate the dinner plate upside down, wiped their mouths, and were about to leave when a buddy walked up next door, patted Xi Wenyao on the shoulder and asked, "Brother, I want to have some excitement tonight, do you want to go together?"
This guy has two canine teeth, and his mouth looks like Bugs Bunny. Everyone usually calls him Bugs Bunny jokingly.
"What's exciting?" Xi Wenyao asked.
Brother Rabbit narrowed his eyes, and laughed slyly: "We plan to visit the secret room at night, how about it? Is it exciting?"
"Ah, just the locked room on the west side?" Ke Chun asked in surprise.
"Yeah, don't you all wonder what happened to the loud noise last night? There are only 25 of us in this castle, and no one admits that the loud noise is caused by ourselves. It must not be made by that girl Hongyu, right? ? I think there must be some ulterior secret hidden in that secret room, and the loud noise must come from there. Don’t you want to go and see what’s going on?”
Brother Tu's words were very provocative, so provocative that Ke Chun almost believed it. He said tremblingly, "There won't be any terrible monsters locked there, right?"
With a snap, Brother Rabbit clapped his hands vigorously in front of Ke Chun, frightening the easily startled little animal and almost knocking over the chair backwards.
"Are you going?" He asked again.
Ke Chun and Xi Wenyao looked at each other, Xi Wenyao still flinched a bit, but Ke Chun was very concerned about the incredible noise last night and the series of anomalies he encountered, so he summoned up his courage and responded, "Go!"
Xi Wenyao, with an expression of risking his life to accompany his brother, slapped the table and yelled: "Let's go!"
At midnight, a group of people gathered in front of the big iron gate and counted their heads.
A total of seven people participated in the expedition. In addition to Ke Chun, Xi Wenyao, and Brother Tu, there were also Brother Tu's roommate Kuai Anhe, Brother Tu's partner Ran Xiaoxin, Ran Xiaoxin's roommate Mingming, and Bo Yiran who surprised everyone.
The seven people huddled together in front of the iron gate, staring at the lock, discussing with each other how to unlock it.
At this time, Ke Chun asked solemnly: "Has this lock been tampered with?"
Everyone was startled, no one said anything, and all focused their eyes on the lock.
The ring lock, which was still dusty when I saw it before, was so clean that it reflected the moonlight outside the window!
Someone weakly asked, "Should we continue?"
Chapter 3
The person who spoke was named Ran Xiaoxin, a thin boy with fair skin, who looked like a child who grew up in a wealthy family.
He tightly held a gentleman wearing glasses next to him, that was his roommate Mingming.Ran Xiaoxin's reluctance seemed to be pulled over by force.
Being beaten back by him like this, Brother Tu, the initiator of the expedition, was not happy, and said with a stern face: "It's all here, is it a man to escape now?"
As he said that, Brother Tu took out a slender wire from his pocket and began to pick the lock. It seemed that he had been prepared for a long time.
"Hee hee, brother has practiced a lot for this day." While speaking, he had already unlocked the door neatly, and seven people lined up and walked in cautiously.
"Wow……"
Behind the door was not the secret room they thought, but a wide staircase leading underground.
The staircase was divided into two sections like the old-style public housing, with a bend at the middle compartment and continued down.
After the iron gate was closed, the corridor was pitch black. Brother Tu turned on the flashlight to take pictures up, down, left, and right, and said reassuringly, "Don't worry, there are no cameras here."
Seven people lined up and went down.
Brother Tu was the leader, followed behind obviously, with Ran Xiaoxin stuck behind him, followed by Ke Chun and Xi Wenyao, and Kuai Anhe and Bo Yiran in the rear.
The stairs in the dark are not easy to walk, Xi Wenyao turned his head and told Ke Chun softly: "Put my shoulders and be careful of the steps."
Instantly made Ke Chun's heart warm. He also found that Xi Wenyao's steps were very steady and slow, as if he was taking care of the people behind him, and he would give thoughtful reminders when he reached the bottom step so that the people behind him would not step on the air. .
Such a boy must also be very gentle to his girlfriend, Ke Chun couldn't help thinking that, feeling inexplicably lost in his heart.
After the long stairway, seven people stood in the corridor of the corridor.
It was a narrow, strip-shaped space with an ordinary apartment door directly in front of it.
The door was half-open, and when they entered, they found that it was an old warehouse, a rectangular space of about six square meters, with iron storage shelves standing on three sides, the walls and ceiling were mottled, and the paint was seriously peeled off.
The warehouse is very crowded. The floor and iron shelves are full of cardboard boxes, which contain all kinds of daily necessities, ranging from paper towels to vacuum cleaners.
Ke Chun slapped the iron shelf with his index finger, removing a thick layer of ash.
At the same time, several other people also scattered to dig up the box. In an instant, the whole room was filled with dust and coughing sounded one after another.
"Ahem," Brother Rabbit covered his mouth and frowned, complaining resentfully, "It's just a broken warehouse, it's a loss."
"Since there is nothing abnormal, let's go back." Xi Wenyao said, "It's not good to rummage through other people's things."
Someone responded immediately: "Yes, yes, let's go."
The person who responded, Ran Xiaoxin, covered his nose with one hand, while retreating towards the door.After taking a few steps back, he suddenly staggered and fell to the ground.
He yelled out in shock, attracting everyone's attention.
I saw him sitting on the ground, with an old bicycle upside down beside him, and the chain was already dangling loosely on the ground.
"Is this the bicycle that made the noise last night?" Ran Xiaoxin asked angrily, glaring at the little broken bicycle that embarrassed him.
Bo Yiran glanced at the little broken car and calmly analyzed: "This warehouse is full of dust, it seems that no one has been here for a long time, this car can't fall down by itself."
But at this time, Ke Chun raised an objection: "Someone has been here."
When he first entered this warehouse, he felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell the specific problem until just now when everyone turned over things and stirred up dust all over the room, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he suddenly realized what the problem was.
"The floor is clean."
Ke Chun turned on the small flashlight he carried with him, and shined it on the floor.
The wooden floors are spotless and shiny and if not swept or constantly walked around.
In a room full of dust, this was odd.
"Who could it be?" Brother Tu asked in surprise after verifying that Ke Chun's words were correct.
Everyone was silent, and there was an answer in Ke Chun's heart. The answer was so obvious that he couldn't believe it.
Wait, did Lang Qiu's appearance last night have anything to do with this place?He didn't look like he got up to find something to eat or go to the bathroom last night.
Before thinking about this line, another voice sounded.
"Hey, come here and take a look!"
The voice was obviously coming out, and he had already run to a corner deep in the warehouse by himself.
Because it was too dark, everyone didn't pay attention to it. It turns out that the warehouse is not a regular rectangle. There is an area protruding in the upper left corner. It is obvious that this area and a layer of curtain behind this area were discovered.
Several people gathered in front of the curtain, and it was obvious that there was still a space behind the curtain.
"Let's go back." Ran Xiaoxin, who was walking at the end, held Kuai Anhe in front, begging bitterly, his eyes no longer dared to wander around, he only dared to stare at them.
Yet again his voice was ignored.
Mingming opened the curtain excitedly as if discovering a new continent.
The space revealed behind the curtain made everyone gasp.
This is a terrible "torture room".
Ke Chun raised the flashlight to shine into the room, which was twice as large as the warehouse outside.
There is a cold operating table in the middle. Different from the general operating table, there are four iron rings around the four corners of the bed, which seem to be used to fix people's limbs.
Professional medical supplies such as surgical knives, scissors, pliers, test tubes, gloves, etc. are neatly placed on the trolley next to the operating table, and solvents with English labels are displayed on the next shelf.
"Human experiment?" Brother Rabbit blurted out, and his tone was strangely distorted.
No one responded, and they all held their breath and followed the light of the flashlight to observe this mysterious space.
The halo of light slowly moved to the walls on all sides, and the things hidden in the darkness revealed their faces one by one.
Axes, saws, knives, long whips, thin needles... and many other unnamed things of various shapes exude a ghastly aura under the cold light of the flashlight.
Ke Chun's hands couldn't help shaking, and he didn't dare to continue taking pictures.
At this time, Xi Wenyao gently held his hand and said to him, "Let me do it."
Ke Chun finally took a breath, and handed the flashlight to Xi Wenyao.
But I didn't want to, I grabbed the flashlight and ran into the room excitedly, shining east and west, exhilarating, like a mouse falling into a rice vat.
"Hey! Be careful!"
Xi Wenyao reminded him loudly at the door, but the excited Mingming couldn't hear him.
He circled around the wall, illuminating the "instruments of torture" on the wall one by one, as if worshiping cultural relics in a museum, and chanted: "This is a brain hoop! It was invented by Suo Yuanli, a cruel official in Wu Zetian's era. Oh, it turns out that the gap left for the wooden wedge is so small, if you really hit someone's head with a hammer... Ah, this! I'll go, there are all of them? "Shovel head club"! That's what I used in those days The one who executed the monk! This thing is... oh, it's from the Zhazi Cave...the collection is too complete!"
There was a lot of chatter in the other room, and his roommate's face was livid, and he weakly pulled the curtain and called him in a trembling voice: "Obviously, let's go, this place is not normal..."
"What's the matter with your classmate?" Brother Tu was also very frightened, and asked Ran Xiaoxin tremblingly.
Ran Xiaoxin hid behind the curtain and shivered: "Obviously I like this kind of ancient things, and I often pull us to watch horror movies together in the middle of the night... I, these, are all fake?"
"I don't know." Bo Yiran said calmly, "But what is certain is that, no matter whether it is true or not, the owner or former owner of this castle has such a habit. He purposely created such a space in the basement to not let others know."
"This room is so clean, someone must have cleaned it." Kuai Anhe agreed lightly.
Bo Yiran's voice sank: "This is the trouble. We should have seen something we shouldn't have seen."
"That, that, that, what should we do now?" Ran Xiaoxin was trembling all over, he tied Kuai Anhe's arm tightly, wishing he could become that person's pendant, looking left and right at Kuai Anhe with restless little eyes And, I almost cried while holding my mouth.
"What are you afraid of? There are no cameras here, up, down, left, and right. As long as we don't tell, who will know that we have been here?" Brother Tu suddenly shouted, and the voice spread and echoed in the huge space, but a deeper silence was ushered in .
In the dark, Xi Wenyao took Ke Chun's hand and patted it lightly twice.
The warmth of his palm gave Ke Chun a great sense of security, and made him muster up the courage to break the terrible silence: "Let's leave here early."
This proposal was unanimously agreed by everyone, especially the initiator, Brother Tu, who has turned around and can't wait to go for a walk.
But what should I do?
That guy was still jumping up and down in the "torture room", showing no intention of leaving.
"I'll call him."
The two voices overlapped.
Ke Chun and Xi Wenyao looked at each other unexpectedly, and Xi Wenyao preempted the next sentence: "I'll go, you go first, I'll take him to follow later."
Brother Tu had already rushed out of the warehouse. Hearing what Xi Wenyao said, the rest of the people also fled out one after another. Only Ke Chun was still standing there.
He looked at Xi Wenyao worriedly, and suggested: "I'll be with you
Lu Youyi's vicious curse was played back and forth in Ke Chun's mind over and over again. He covered his ears tightly with the quilt, but his voice was amplified over and over again.
At that moment, Ke Chun felt that the person in front of him who should be very familiar was so strange.
Ke Chun participated in a comprehensive music competition variety show called "The Road to the God of Songs".
And that person was the opponent he personally eliminated in the first round of the PK match, and he was also the first close friend he made on this show, and he even had a little liking for him.
Sing the songs you like to the people you like.
This has always been Ke Chun's wish. When he got the song "Simple Love" and his opponent was Lu Youyi, he even thought it was worth the round.
Unexpectedly, there was an accident in Lu Youyi's performance, the score was immediately cleared, and Ke Chun was directly promoted.
Lu Youyi on the stage angrily pointed at the host's nose and cursed: "You go back on your promises! I will report you tomorrow! Don't think I don't know about your dirty deeds! I will ruin the show!"
Ke Chungang wanted to go forward to comfort him, but he said the curse, so he could only stand there stupidly, watching Lu Youyi leave the scene angrily.
Subsequent programs continued as usual, as if this scene had never happened.
Ke Chun turned over on the bed, thinking about it carefully, it was too unnatural.
What does Lu Youyi mean by "returning on one's promise", "acting", and "reporting"?
Meaning is there something wrong with this show?Is it an illegal recording?
But on the day of the audition, the whole city was a sensation, and all the major media came to interview it, wouldn't it be so?
To say that this castle is strange is indeed a bit strange.
From the moment they move into the castle, the contestants must turn in their mobile phones and other communication devices, and cannot go out. Eating, sleeping, rehearsals, and game recording are all carried out in this luxurious three-story castle.
There is only one staff member in the entire castle, who is the housekeeping girl who is responsible for cleaning and cooking.
No camera, no PD, no make-up, no costumes, just the 50 contestants they participated in the show.
Cameras are installed in every corner of the castle, even the door of the toilet. Every move of the contestants is under surveillance at all times, as if there are countless pairs of eyes staring at you from morning till night.
The director of the program group never showed up, and all instructions and tasks were conveyed to the contestants through the large screen hanging in the lobby on the first floor.
The most incredible thing is that, as a music competition variety show, no instructors or judges are invited, and all teaching is conducted through the TV in the rehearsal room on the second floor.The TV not only has the function of watching, but also can interact with the players, and flexibly adjust the teaching according to the players' reactions.
Although artificial intelligence is indeed developing very well now, it may cost a lot of money to reach this level.
Ke Chun majored in media at university, so when he saw such a big deal, he felt a sense of admiration and yearning in his heart.
In addition to using artificial intelligence for rehearsals, even games are scored by machines.
Take their first round of PK competition that just ended today as an example. The scoring criteria are intonation and rhythm. The program group introduced a scoring system similar to the national karaoke. In the end, those with higher scores will advance and those with lower scores will be eliminated.
Not only the scoring, but also the lighting and camera are controlled remotely. There is no lighting engineer or cameraman on site, and naturally there are no audiences.Even the host was particularly elusive, and he could hardly be found after stepping off the stage, as if he was invisible.
This series of abnormal points, combined with what Lu Youyi said today, made Ke Chun suspicious.
Fully intelligent program recording is not impossible with the current technology, but few program groups will spend such a large amount of money to do these unnecessary operations.
However, this form of recording is not considered illegal recording, so what can be reported?
Ke Chun plunged into the exploration, always feeling that he still missed something.
He tried hard to search for that forgotten thing in his brain, and when the strings in his brain were perfectly connected, he couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine.
There is a room in this castle that cannot be opened.
It was discovered when a few people in their dormitory explored together the day they first moved into the castle. It was in the corridor west of the lobby on the first floor and went all the way to the end.
There was a double iron door with a rusty ring lock on the handle.A thick layer of dust had accumulated on the lock, so it must have been untouched for a long time.
The style of this iron door is too weird, it is incompatible with the warm interior of the whole villa, it seems to be something from another dimension.
What's even more peculiar is that none of the cameras in the castle can be seen in the corridor leading to the iron gate, which means that this corridor is the only place in the castle that is not monitored. To put it in extreme terms That is, any illegal activities you do here will not be recorded.
Ke Chun wrapped the quilt tighter, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
Could it be that the program team is going to do some shameless things through this corridor and this secret room?
And Lu Youyi knew this incident unintentionally, so he said that when he was eliminated.
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that he was inseparable. He couldn't lie down anymore, and sat up from the bed. At that moment, there was a loud bang outside, which almost scared him out of his wits.
After the loud noise, everything returned to calm.
Ke Chun pressed his chest, and his beating heart was still beating his chest forcefully.
He swallowed, his stomach growling.
From night to now, he hasn't taken in a drop of water, tears are streaming down his face, and his energy is almost exhausted.
He decided to go out and find something to refresh his hunger, and calm down his panic by the way.
He got out of bed, walked to the door lightly, put his ear to the door and listened for a while, making sure that there was no sound outside, and then opened the door to go out to look for food.
Ke Chun's dormitory is on the east side of the second floor, and there are stairs on the east side when he goes out. He went downstairs along the stairs, and unconsciously glanced at the west corridor opposite. The faint yellow ceiling light was on safely, and everything was as usual.
He emboldened a little, took two steps there, looked around, and there was another protest from his stomach, so he didn't go any further, and trotted the cat into the kitchen.
He found a banana from the refrigerator, poured himself another glass of milk, turned on the microwave, and then leaned against the sink to finish eating before going upstairs.
The bright environment of the kitchen made him feel safe again, and the guessing in his mind just now became particularly dreamy, and Ke Chun couldn't help laughing.
Something was really wrong today, he must be in a bad mood to think about it, maybe Lu Youyi did know something, but it is possible for him to curse the program group in a moment of anger.After all, with such a large-scale production of a program, with hundreds of millions of eyes staring at it across the country, what outrageous things can be done?
The banana in his hand was sweet, and the milk was warm, and Ke Chun felt very satisfied when it entered his stomach.
He quickly finished the late dinner, took a tissue to wipe his hands, and prepared to go upstairs for a good night's sleep.
It's already two o'clock, and I have to get up early tomorrow to welcome the release of the new mission.
Unexpectedly, when he was about to leave, suddenly a figure flashed into the kitchen, and that person looked out like a thief.
Ke Chun couldn't hold back his surprise, and let out a short scream.
The man was also taken aback, turned his head and looked at each other.
"what."
This person is none other than Ke Chun's roommate Lang Qiu.
He was wearing black baggy pajamas, and his hair was messy and sweaty.
The pair of indifferent eyes in the sunken eye sockets stared at Ke Chun like two sharp knives.
"Are you hungry too?" Ke Chun smiled awkwardly, "I didn't wake you up, did I?"
He and this roommate have not spoken more than ten sentences in total since the first day they met, because Lang Qiu always exudes a kind of aura that strangers should not get close to. Ignore it, one person can sit there all afternoon, plus he looks foreign, with sunken eye sockets and a high nose bridge, and a very good figure, if he didn't know that this is a living person, he would really think it was a statue.
Although Ke Chun had no choice but to be used to his indifference, he wanted to say hello and go back to the room first, but he didn't expect Lang Qiu to ignore him this time.
"Why are you here?"
A question without temperature.
Ke Chun felt elated, and quickly lifted the banana peel in his hand: "I'm hungry."
Hearing this sentence, Lang Qiu showed a relaxed expression.
"What's wrong with you?" Ke Chun thought that this was a good opportunity to get closer to each other, so he took advantage of the situation and asked.
Lang Qiu shook his head, opened the refrigerator, opened a can of Coke, and gulped down half a cup with the mouth of the cup.
"Did you hear the loud noise just now?" Ke Chun continued to actively find topics.
Lang Qiu changed his usual indifference, put down the Coke in his hand, stared at Ke Chun seriously, with a cold light in his eyes, and said word by word: "Forget about what happened tonight, play well, and you must not be eliminated."
The word "must" was emphasized by his accent, but Ke Chun couldn't understand it.
He didn't think Lang Qiu was so optimistic about him, why did he encourage him in the middle of the night?
But no matter what, since the other party encouraged him, he had to respond politely: "Oh, you too, we all have to work hard."
Lang Qiu hooked the corners of his lips, how to say that smile, showing a sneer with a bit of disdain, and then stood beside Li Kechun.
Ke Chun was also very embarrassed when he stood up like that. Is this the first time the chat is over?Is it possible to disband and return to the house?
Then Ke Chun said hello, and walked out of the kitchen to go back to sleep.
Unexpectedly, Lang Qiu also followed closely, and followed Ke Chun closely along the way.
Although he didn't say a word, the sound of solid footsteps made Ke Chun's heart feel more at ease in the darkness.
Maybe this guy isn't that difficult to live with?Ke Chun couldn't help but comment in his heart.
Back in the dormitory, Lang Qiu's snoring sounded soon.
But Ke Chun tossed and turned on the bed, going through the whole day again.
Lu Youyi's abnormal performance, a loud noise in the middle of the night, and Lang Qiu's inexplicable encouragement, everything seems to be fake. Maybe when you open your eyes tomorrow, you will start again today?
Thinking of these things, Ke Chun's consciousness slowly sank.
At this time, he still doesn't know that everything on this day is just the opening prelude to the strange events, and even more terrifying events are waiting for him one after another.
Chapter 2
As the sun rose, warm light poured into the lobby of the castle from the high glass windows, covering the floor, walls, and cabinets with a soft halo.
In the bright lobby, a group of well-dressed young guys gathered together, chatting noisily.
"Hey, did you all hear the loud noise last night?"
"There must be a ghost in that secret room!"
"I heard that this land used to be a cemetery!"
"No, how did I hear that there was a big hole hit by a meteorite before? Do you remember the big meteor shower ten years ago? It was missed in the news. A meteor deviated from the expected track and went here with a bang. Fortunately, there was a wasteland nearby at that time, and there were no casualties."
"I don't know when I built a castle, do you know?"
"Your local people don't know, how can we outsiders know?"
"Hush, the lowest score is here."
Ke Chun came out of the cafeteria after breakfast with swollen eyes. At nine o'clock this morning, the rules for the second round of competition were announced.
Everyone in the lobby looked at him like a rare animal.
Yesterday he went straight back to the dormitory after getting off the stage, without saying hello to these brothers at all, maybe they were a little upset about it?
"Good morning, everyone." Ke Chun took the initiative to wave and greet.
Some people avoided his sight indifferently, some people smiled at him politely, and only one man approached him kindly and asked, "Did you not sleep well last night?"
This man's name is Xi Wenyao, he is a fat and reliable big boy, and Ke Chun has a good impression of him.
"Well, it's a little uncomfortable..."
Ke Chun and Lu Youyi were inseparable every day before. Everyone knew that they were very good brothers, so Xi Wenyao understood immediately when he said this, and walked over to pat him on the back to comfort him: "It's okay, there are always winners and losers in the game. We are still friends."
Ke Chun gave a soft "hmm", and heard the players around him start chatting again.
"Hey, have you heard such a story? There used to be such an old castle that would make strange noises every night, thud-dang-dang-pound-pound-pound!" This buddy imitated the onomatopoeia vividly, He also made a beating gesture with his hands, which is very deep in the play.
A circle of people around him waited intently for the next plot.
"Guess what that sound is?"
Everyone swallowed, and someone asked in a low voice, "What's that sound?"
"It's the hostess of this house who is cooking!"
"Damn!" Everyone sighed in disappointment and waved their hands one after another. Just as they were about to disperse, the buddy who told the story hurriedly stopped everyone and said in a very low and gloomy voice: "The meat she chopped belongs to her man."
The temperature in the lobby dropped suddenly, as if a gust of wind had blown through, everyone's spine felt chills, and they all shivered.
Someone asked, "Do you think the lean meat porridge this morning is particularly delicious?"
Silence spread in the air.
The buddy who told the story also panicked, and took the lead to break the merit: "Damn, I'm all lying, don't take it seriously!" When he said this, his voice was a little trembling.
At this moment, the big screen suddenly lit up, saving the increasingly weird atmosphere in time.
On the screen is a man in black clothes and a black mask, who is their director, nicknamed Hei Bang.
"Congratulations to all of you here for the promotion. You all performed very well." It was a very official sentence without any tone.
"Now I will announce the rules of the second round of the competition. The second round is the individual points competition, and you need to choose one of the next 25 songs for live singing."
"The judging criterion this time is 'feeling'. At that time, 500 audiences will watch your concert live online. They will cast a sacred vote for being moved to their stage. Each vote counts as one point, and the final statistics Score ranking, the top ten successfully advanced."
There was an uproar at the scene.
25 into 10, this is already more than half of the elimination rate.
Ke Chun's heart tightened as well. He knew his singing level. In the first round of competition, his score was the last among the advanced contestants. If he wanted to advance, the key word was "moving people with emotion", but his tone was not complete. Can the singing really move the audience?Even he himself didn't have the confidence.
"However," director Black Stick changed the subject, "the two ranked first and second have a special right, they can choose two of the 15 people who rank lower to advance."
As soon as this remark came out, everyone raised doubts, wondering why the program group would set it up like this.
But the director did not explain this, but went into the next explanation: "The rehearsal time for this round is three days, during these three days you can form teams of two freely, and all rehearsal sessions must be with two people. "
"Since the current number is 25, there must be one bye, and this person will form a group by itself. Team formation will not affect the game points. Next, I will give you an hour of free team formation and song selection time. After one hour, please Tell me your grouping and song selection through the computer device under the big screen. Now the timer starts."
After saying this, the big screen went dark.
All the contestants looked at each other, thinking about this strange group rehearsal.
Since it is an individual points competition, why should it be divided into groups?What's more, the grouping does not affect the final points.
But when everyone started teaming up, they realized what it meant.
The two players with the highest scores in the first round had already lined up in front of them, and everyone wanted to be with them. The reason was simple—the number one No.2 in this round could be directly selected to advance.
Whether it is by strength or relationship, as long as they can advance, everything will be fine.
Ke Chun looked at Lang Qiu in the middle of the crowd. His score ranked second among all the players in the first round.
He was very annoyed that the trick of approaching the water tower could not be used, and then looked around him, there was no one, standing alone like a small tree, miserable and miserable.
Also, who would want to be with the last one?
After Lang Qiu chatted with each team volunteer, he finally chose a boy with fashionable clothes and good looks.
That person, Ke Chun, remembered that his name was Kuai Anhe, and he was very gentle in his dealings with others, with the elegance of a little prince in his gestures.
He sighed silently again, thinking in his heart, and didn't expect Lang Qiu to be willing to be with him.
It's just that Ke Chun couldn't help being anxious when he saw that all the little friends around him had found their partners.
Every time he took the initiative to attack, he was ruthlessly rejected. After five, six, seven or eight times, he was also discouraged and wanted to listen to the fate. Anyway, it depends on the individual in the end. No no.
In the end, there were three people left on the scene who were not in a group.
Ke Chun, Xi Wenyao, and a cool man—Bo Yiran.
Ke Chun belonged to no one wanted, Xi Wenyao took the initiative to give in, and Bo Yiran did not participate in the whole process.
At this time, Ke Chun and Xi Wenyao still stared and expressed embarrassment, but Bo Yiran voluntarily withdrew: "I'll be alone. In the end, it depends on my personal performance. On the contrary, I can seriously prepare by myself."
So, Ke Chun and Xi Wenyao formed a team.
Although he felt a little guilty towards Bo Yiran, Ke Chun was more at ease. After choosing the song, he couldn't wait to take Xi Wenyao to lunch.
Now that a partner has been formed, it is natural to understand each other.
In the process of eating and chatting with Xi Wenyao, Ke Chun found that Xi Wenyao is really a very good person.He came to the show this time to satisfy his girlfriend's wish.
"Me, my only specialty is singing. My girlfriend saw the recruitment advertisement for this show, amateurs can also go, so she got a brainstorm and helped me sign up. Before I came, he also told me that if I saw a star To get her an autograph. You see, I still have this copy with me."
Xi Wenyao took out a palm-sized booklet from his pocket. The cover was all pink and full of flowers, full of girlishness.
Ke Chun sighed: "I can understand. My mother also chases stars, and she took special care of me before I came. It's a pity that our show doesn't seem to have any big stars."
"That Kuai Anhe, do you know?" Xi Wenyao asked.
"Ah, the one with Lang Qiu? What's the matter?"
Xi Wenyao introduced him in a decent manner: "He should be regarded as relatively well-known among us."
"Huh? Actor? Singer?" Ke Chun leaned forward and became interested.
"Let's count it as a singer. I heard one of his albums a few years ago, and he sang very well, but I haven't listened to his other works since that album. I thought he stopped singing. I saw him here. His kind of professional singer came here to crush us." Xi Wenyao sighed as he spoke.
Ke Chun tried to comfort him: "Don't say that, your first round results are not far behind him, you have to be confident."
Xi Wenyao smiled: "I would like to be eliminated and go home early. You know that a nine-to-five worker really can't adapt to this environment of being monitored 24 hours a day."
"What about your job? Resigned?"
Xi Wenyao shook his hand in panic: "How can I? Work is my life. I will explain the situation to the leader. Anyway, I have to leave in a few rounds. I just asked for two weeks off."
"Oh..." Ke Chun took a sip of the meal, thinking about himself, reckoning it was only this round, his interest sank again, and the meal became dull.
Xi Wenyao was calm, he put a piece of braised pork in his mouth and chewed it with relish.
"Has our chef changed? The taste of this meat is indeed much better than the previous two days." He praised sincerely.
Ke Chun also discovered that all the meat products in the cafeteria today are particularly tasty, and the meat is tender and tender, which makes people want to stop.
But there should only be Hongyu—the housekeeping girl invited by the program group—as the chef. This skill has improved by leaps and bounds, which is surprising.
The two ate the dinner plate upside down, wiped their mouths, and were about to leave when a buddy walked up next door, patted Xi Wenyao on the shoulder and asked, "Brother, I want to have some excitement tonight, do you want to go together?"
This guy has two canine teeth, and his mouth looks like Bugs Bunny. Everyone usually calls him Bugs Bunny jokingly.
"What's exciting?" Xi Wenyao asked.
Brother Rabbit narrowed his eyes, and laughed slyly: "We plan to visit the secret room at night, how about it? Is it exciting?"
"Ah, just the locked room on the west side?" Ke Chun asked in surprise.
"Yeah, don't you all wonder what happened to the loud noise last night? There are only 25 of us in this castle, and no one admits that the loud noise is caused by ourselves. It must not be made by that girl Hongyu, right? ? I think there must be some ulterior secret hidden in that secret room, and the loud noise must come from there. Don’t you want to go and see what’s going on?”
Brother Tu's words were very provocative, so provocative that Ke Chun almost believed it. He said tremblingly, "There won't be any terrible monsters locked there, right?"
With a snap, Brother Rabbit clapped his hands vigorously in front of Ke Chun, frightening the easily startled little animal and almost knocking over the chair backwards.
"Are you going?" He asked again.
Ke Chun and Xi Wenyao looked at each other, Xi Wenyao still flinched a bit, but Ke Chun was very concerned about the incredible noise last night and the series of anomalies he encountered, so he summoned up his courage and responded, "Go!"
Xi Wenyao, with an expression of risking his life to accompany his brother, slapped the table and yelled: "Let's go!"
At midnight, a group of people gathered in front of the big iron gate and counted their heads.
A total of seven people participated in the expedition. In addition to Ke Chun, Xi Wenyao, and Brother Tu, there were also Brother Tu's roommate Kuai Anhe, Brother Tu's partner Ran Xiaoxin, Ran Xiaoxin's roommate Mingming, and Bo Yiran who surprised everyone.
The seven people huddled together in front of the iron gate, staring at the lock, discussing with each other how to unlock it.
At this time, Ke Chun asked solemnly: "Has this lock been tampered with?"
Everyone was startled, no one said anything, and all focused their eyes on the lock.
The ring lock, which was still dusty when I saw it before, was so clean that it reflected the moonlight outside the window!
Someone weakly asked, "Should we continue?"
Chapter 3
The person who spoke was named Ran Xiaoxin, a thin boy with fair skin, who looked like a child who grew up in a wealthy family.
He tightly held a gentleman wearing glasses next to him, that was his roommate Mingming.Ran Xiaoxin's reluctance seemed to be pulled over by force.
Being beaten back by him like this, Brother Tu, the initiator of the expedition, was not happy, and said with a stern face: "It's all here, is it a man to escape now?"
As he said that, Brother Tu took out a slender wire from his pocket and began to pick the lock. It seemed that he had been prepared for a long time.
"Hee hee, brother has practiced a lot for this day." While speaking, he had already unlocked the door neatly, and seven people lined up and walked in cautiously.
"Wow……"
Behind the door was not the secret room they thought, but a wide staircase leading underground.
The staircase was divided into two sections like the old-style public housing, with a bend at the middle compartment and continued down.
After the iron gate was closed, the corridor was pitch black. Brother Tu turned on the flashlight to take pictures up, down, left, and right, and said reassuringly, "Don't worry, there are no cameras here."
Seven people lined up and went down.
Brother Tu was the leader, followed behind obviously, with Ran Xiaoxin stuck behind him, followed by Ke Chun and Xi Wenyao, and Kuai Anhe and Bo Yiran in the rear.
The stairs in the dark are not easy to walk, Xi Wenyao turned his head and told Ke Chun softly: "Put my shoulders and be careful of the steps."
Instantly made Ke Chun's heart warm. He also found that Xi Wenyao's steps were very steady and slow, as if he was taking care of the people behind him, and he would give thoughtful reminders when he reached the bottom step so that the people behind him would not step on the air. .
Such a boy must also be very gentle to his girlfriend, Ke Chun couldn't help thinking that, feeling inexplicably lost in his heart.
After the long stairway, seven people stood in the corridor of the corridor.
It was a narrow, strip-shaped space with an ordinary apartment door directly in front of it.
The door was half-open, and when they entered, they found that it was an old warehouse, a rectangular space of about six square meters, with iron storage shelves standing on three sides, the walls and ceiling were mottled, and the paint was seriously peeled off.
The warehouse is very crowded. The floor and iron shelves are full of cardboard boxes, which contain all kinds of daily necessities, ranging from paper towels to vacuum cleaners.
Ke Chun slapped the iron shelf with his index finger, removing a thick layer of ash.
At the same time, several other people also scattered to dig up the box. In an instant, the whole room was filled with dust and coughing sounded one after another.
"Ahem," Brother Rabbit covered his mouth and frowned, complaining resentfully, "It's just a broken warehouse, it's a loss."
"Since there is nothing abnormal, let's go back." Xi Wenyao said, "It's not good to rummage through other people's things."
Someone responded immediately: "Yes, yes, let's go."
The person who responded, Ran Xiaoxin, covered his nose with one hand, while retreating towards the door.After taking a few steps back, he suddenly staggered and fell to the ground.
He yelled out in shock, attracting everyone's attention.
I saw him sitting on the ground, with an old bicycle upside down beside him, and the chain was already dangling loosely on the ground.
"Is this the bicycle that made the noise last night?" Ran Xiaoxin asked angrily, glaring at the little broken bicycle that embarrassed him.
Bo Yiran glanced at the little broken car and calmly analyzed: "This warehouse is full of dust, it seems that no one has been here for a long time, this car can't fall down by itself."
But at this time, Ke Chun raised an objection: "Someone has been here."
When he first entered this warehouse, he felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell the specific problem until just now when everyone turned over things and stirred up dust all over the room, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he suddenly realized what the problem was.
"The floor is clean."
Ke Chun turned on the small flashlight he carried with him, and shined it on the floor.
The wooden floors are spotless and shiny and if not swept or constantly walked around.
In a room full of dust, this was odd.
"Who could it be?" Brother Tu asked in surprise after verifying that Ke Chun's words were correct.
Everyone was silent, and there was an answer in Ke Chun's heart. The answer was so obvious that he couldn't believe it.
Wait, did Lang Qiu's appearance last night have anything to do with this place?He didn't look like he got up to find something to eat or go to the bathroom last night.
Before thinking about this line, another voice sounded.
"Hey, come here and take a look!"
The voice was obviously coming out, and he had already run to a corner deep in the warehouse by himself.
Because it was too dark, everyone didn't pay attention to it. It turns out that the warehouse is not a regular rectangle. There is an area protruding in the upper left corner. It is obvious that this area and a layer of curtain behind this area were discovered.
Several people gathered in front of the curtain, and it was obvious that there was still a space behind the curtain.
"Let's go back." Ran Xiaoxin, who was walking at the end, held Kuai Anhe in front, begging bitterly, his eyes no longer dared to wander around, he only dared to stare at them.
Yet again his voice was ignored.
Mingming opened the curtain excitedly as if discovering a new continent.
The space revealed behind the curtain made everyone gasp.
This is a terrible "torture room".
Ke Chun raised the flashlight to shine into the room, which was twice as large as the warehouse outside.
There is a cold operating table in the middle. Different from the general operating table, there are four iron rings around the four corners of the bed, which seem to be used to fix people's limbs.
Professional medical supplies such as surgical knives, scissors, pliers, test tubes, gloves, etc. are neatly placed on the trolley next to the operating table, and solvents with English labels are displayed on the next shelf.
"Human experiment?" Brother Rabbit blurted out, and his tone was strangely distorted.
No one responded, and they all held their breath and followed the light of the flashlight to observe this mysterious space.
The halo of light slowly moved to the walls on all sides, and the things hidden in the darkness revealed their faces one by one.
Axes, saws, knives, long whips, thin needles... and many other unnamed things of various shapes exude a ghastly aura under the cold light of the flashlight.
Ke Chun's hands couldn't help shaking, and he didn't dare to continue taking pictures.
At this time, Xi Wenyao gently held his hand and said to him, "Let me do it."
Ke Chun finally took a breath, and handed the flashlight to Xi Wenyao.
But I didn't want to, I grabbed the flashlight and ran into the room excitedly, shining east and west, exhilarating, like a mouse falling into a rice vat.
"Hey! Be careful!"
Xi Wenyao reminded him loudly at the door, but the excited Mingming couldn't hear him.
He circled around the wall, illuminating the "instruments of torture" on the wall one by one, as if worshiping cultural relics in a museum, and chanted: "This is a brain hoop! It was invented by Suo Yuanli, a cruel official in Wu Zetian's era. Oh, it turns out that the gap left for the wooden wedge is so small, if you really hit someone's head with a hammer... Ah, this! I'll go, there are all of them? "Shovel head club"! That's what I used in those days The one who executed the monk! This thing is... oh, it's from the Zhazi Cave...the collection is too complete!"
There was a lot of chatter in the other room, and his roommate's face was livid, and he weakly pulled the curtain and called him in a trembling voice: "Obviously, let's go, this place is not normal..."
"What's the matter with your classmate?" Brother Tu was also very frightened, and asked Ran Xiaoxin tremblingly.
Ran Xiaoxin hid behind the curtain and shivered: "Obviously I like this kind of ancient things, and I often pull us to watch horror movies together in the middle of the night... I, these, are all fake?"
"I don't know." Bo Yiran said calmly, "But what is certain is that, no matter whether it is true or not, the owner or former owner of this castle has such a habit. He purposely created such a space in the basement to not let others know."
"This room is so clean, someone must have cleaned it." Kuai Anhe agreed lightly.
Bo Yiran's voice sank: "This is the trouble. We should have seen something we shouldn't have seen."
"That, that, that, what should we do now?" Ran Xiaoxin was trembling all over, he tied Kuai Anhe's arm tightly, wishing he could become that person's pendant, looking left and right at Kuai Anhe with restless little eyes And, I almost cried while holding my mouth.
"What are you afraid of? There are no cameras here, up, down, left, and right. As long as we don't tell, who will know that we have been here?" Brother Tu suddenly shouted, and the voice spread and echoed in the huge space, but a deeper silence was ushered in .
