I Became Popular After Participating In Escape Games - Chapter 48
“Okay,” the hostess said disappointedly, “then I’ll eat it myself.”
All the players secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
The hostess did not make any drastic actions, scooped herself a bowl of meat and soup, and ate with her head down.
The broth was really fragrant, Lu Tingliu coughed, stretched out his chopsticks and took a piece of potato.
Other players watched her move, and then started to symbolically eat some vegetables on the table.
The meat is not touched at all.
Not only the player, the servant Zhou Ma and the two children also did not eat meat.
Lu Tingliu looked at the little girl, she had two pigtails, she was eating slowly, and she didn’t seem to be able to eat it well, while the little boy hardly ate a bite.
Feeling Lu Tingliu’s sight, the little girl looked up at her.
The eyes of the two faced each other, and Lu Tingliu saw that she had a pair of different pupils, one eye was blue and black like the deep sea, and the other was a gentler dark brown.
Lu Tingliu smiled at her: “Hello.”
The little girl shuddered in fright, lowered her head, and said nothing.
The little boy looked at Lu Tingliu and said, “Sister, when our family is eating, we can’t speak.”
Lu Tingliu nodded: “That’s it.”
In the eerie silence, this difficult lunch was finally finished.
The hostess looked at the heavy snow outside the castle and said to the player: “The snow is too heavy, the road in the mountains is not easy to walk, you rest here for another day. The weather forecast says that the snow will be heavy tomorrow. will be smaller.”
The player is silent for a while.
They really have no choice.
Shi Li wiped his face and squeezed out a smile at the hostess: “Then I’ll bother you.”
The hostess laughed, more sincere than Shili, she said, “Don’t bother, I’m very happy, the house is lively, how wonderful.”
After lunch, Mother Zhou took her two children to the third floor to take a nap.
Players come together to communicate.
Wei Miaomiao said: “What should I do, I’m so hungry, I didn’t dare to eat just now, and the mall doesn’t sell food.”
Cheng Ziqing looked around nervously to confirm that there were no NPCs around, and then said, “I think there is something wrong with that little girl. Have you seen her eyes?”
Shi Li and Zhao Sha said: “I see.”
Cheng Ziqing’s eyes fell on Lu Tingliu and said, “I, I have a suggestion.”
Lu Tingliu: “You said.”
Cheng Ziqing pleaded: “Go and kill that little girl, so that we can spend the next two days safely.”
Lu Tingliu: ?
Barrage: “What a big face?”
“Silent, do you have any brains? Look at the record that Cheng Ziqing has played dungeons three times before, why is he still mentally retarded.”
“Help… The reason why I haven’t read the elementary book for 800 years is that there are too many wonderful things, and Sister Lu can’t save them, so I withdraw.”
Lu Tingliu said: “First of all, we are not sure that the little girl is the key to this copy, secondly, the copy builds a ‘family’, the hostess seems to love her children, kill With her child, who can guarantee that the mistress will not become something more terrible?”
Cheng Ziqing said: “Okay.”
Shi Li suddenly said: “My spirit is down, ten points.”
Zhao Sha said: “Ah, me too, this seems to be called…”
“Delayed pollution,” Lu Tingliu thought of these four words, looked up at the deep stairs of the ancient castle, “At least one of those two children is a ghost.”
At four o’clock in the afternoon, the two children went downstairs, and Zhou’s mother showed them a picture book.
The hostess is busy in the kitchen again, preparing dinner.
Wei Miaomiao was too hungry to bear, so she could only fill her hunger with water.
Mother Zhou made coffee for them, and everyone just wanted to take a sip.
Shi Li stood by the window, watching the snow falling outside. Cheng Ziqing leaned over to talk to him – there were only two boys left – “Shi Li, you are the third evolutionary right?”
“Hmm.”
“Are you a battle card?”
Cheng Ziqing said: “Wei Miaomiao said that she will sleep with Lu Tingliu in the same room tonight. I wonder if we should live together? Two people are always safer than one.”
Shi Li made a “hmm”: “I’ll think about it.”
Cheng Ziqing was anxious: “What is there to consider! Two people are definitely better than one person when facing a ghost, I am a move card, and I can fight!”
Shi Li was still hesitating when Lu Tingliu came over and said, “Let’s let it go, the heating is too stuffy, let’s open the window and let’s breathe.”
She spoke in a loud voice, Zhou Ma heard it and ran over in small steps: “I’ll come!”
After Zhou’s mother opened the window, Lu Tingliu squeezed the two boys apart and put her head out to blow the air.
The wind was strong outside, the temperature was very low, and both Shili and Cheng Ziqing shivered.
Lu Tingliu ruffled her hair that was blown by the wind, and suddenly made an “Oops”, she grabbed her hand in the air, only the broken light flickered in the stone, Lu Tingliu said anxiously: ” My earring fell off!”
She turned and rushed to the door, her footsteps suddenly stopped, and said, “Mother Zhou, is the down jacket we wore last night still there? I’m going out to pick up my earrings, it’s too cold to go out. “
Mother Zhou’s face was still numb, she said in a hoarse voice: “Your clothes are not dry yet, I will bring you a coat of Mrs.
Lu Tingliu went out in a thick cashmere coat and went to the snow under the window to look for her earrings.
When she entered the castle yesterday, Lu Tingliu noticed that there was less snow in one part of the courtyard than in other places. When she woke up this morning, she also saw obvious signs of movement there . She pretended to find the earring and rubbed it over there, her fingers dipped into the snow, and she felt the iron sheet of the cold man and a lock.
“Xiaolu,” the hostess walked towards her with a spatula in her hand, “I heard from Mother Zhou that your earrings fell off? Are they very valuable?”
“My good friend gave it to me.” Lu Tingliu calmly said.
“That must be very precious,” said the hostess, “but the earrings you threw in the window, the wind didn’t blow in this direction, how did you come here?”
“Hey,” Lu Tingliu looked around the courtyard and said suddenly, “He lowered his head and couldn’t figure out the direction, so he came here unknowingly. I’ll go back and look for it.”
She walked back to the window, and after a while, smiled at the hostess: “I found it.”
The hostess’ pale face also showed a smile: “Just find it.”
…
After dinner, the hostess handed over the kitchen work to Zhou Ma. She took a fairy tale book and told stories to the two children in the living room.
These are very ordinary stories.
Both children did not listen very carefully, and after two stories were told, they became sleepy.
“Okay,” the hostess closed the book and said to her child, “it’s getting late, it’s time for bed.”
She picked up her son and walked up the stairs.
The little girl said, “Mom, I want to hug too.”
The hostess said: “My brother is not in good health, and my mother is holding you.”
The little girl pouted: “No, I want to hug—”
Lu Tingliu stood up and said, “Let me hug, how about it?”
The hostess apologized: “Lulu has a bad temper and doesn’t like to be touched by others. I’ll just hold her.”
However, unexpectedly, Lu Tingliu squatted down and spread her arms, the little girl did not hesitate for a second, and jumped into her arms happily.
Hostess: ?
The stairs of the ancient castle are twisty and have an old smell.
Lu Tingliu hugged the little girl and followed the hostess to the third floor.
The little girl put her arms around Lu Tingliu’s neck and softly pressed it against Lu Tingliu’s head. She said softly, “Sister, those people dare not approach you.”
Lu Tingliu: “Who?”
The little girl said: “Many, uncle driver, auntie nanny, guests who used to live here, and father.”
“Your dad is here?”
“Um…” The little girl suddenly said nervously, “Dad ‘shush’ me, he won’t let me say…”
There are not many rooms on the third floor, so each room is large.
The little girl and the little boy live in a room with two beds. Lu Tingliu put the little **** the pink bed, and the little girl grabbed her hand, as if nostalgic for her.
The hostess came over and pulled her hand away and helped her cover the quilt: “Go to sleep.”
After leaving the children’s room, Lu Tingliu and the hostess went downstairs together.
The hostess said, “Don’t take what the child says.”
“Tong’s words have no taboo.” Lu Tingliu smiled.
The living conditions here are one day. At present, there is no danger during the day, and what will be encountered at night is still unknown. It could be the ghost of a person, it could be a mistress who turns people into livestock, it could be a little girl who can see ghosts.
After night fell, Zhou’s mother urged them to wash and sleep.
Wei Miaomiao went straight to Lu Tingliu’s room after taking a bath, Zhou Ma, like a ghost, appeared out of nowhere and stopped her: “One guest in one room, don’t run around. “
“…We are good sisters,” Wei Miaomiao said, holding on, “Can’t you just talk at night?”
Mother Zhou shook her head: “Miss is sensitive and can’t hear voices.”
After finishing speaking, Zhou Ma started directly and pushed Wei Miaomiao into her own room. Wei Miaomiao gave a short cry, and she was horrified to find that Zhou Ma’s strength was actually quite strong.
After being pushed into the room, Zhou Ma closed her door.
Several other players saw her determination and understood that they could not be forced to be together.
Cheng Ziqing added deep fear in addition to depression.
After returning to his room, he turned on all the lights and sat on the bed in a daze.
For some people, it is not that the more copies they experience, the more calm they are. On the contrary, the more they experience, the more afraid they become. After a few copies, he saw too many terrible deaths. However, when he thought that he only got to this day by good luck, if he was a little bit unlucky, those dead signs would fall on him, Cheng Ziqing had trouble sleeping and eating, and he didn’t even want to stay in the copy for a moment. go down.
He regrets it.
Why choose to enter the game? What was he thinking at the time? Oh…Because in front of the girl I like, I bet with others for face, and even boasted that I want to become a “game” star…
How stupid he was.
Cheng Ziqing huddled at the angle between the bed and the wall, holding her head angrily, not knowing how to spend this long night.
“呲呲”.
One more time.
Cheng Ziqing heard the sound of his door being opened.
Lu Tingliu had a dream.
“In the realm of Inhare, after death, souls live and become evil spirits,” a woman said to her, “but souls are not visible, they come Going away without a trace has caused great harm to ordinary people, and after people die, they become new ghosts, causing the situation to enter a vicious circle. To deal with them, you must first see them.”
Lu Tingliu in the dream said: “I see.”
Suddenly, she stood beside a river. The river was full of corpses. on the eyes.
When she opened it again, her eyes were reflected in the red river, one blue and black, the other dark brown.
In front of her eyes are countless dead souls suspended on the river, and in her ears are the screams and resentments like a tsunami.
It is dawn.
Cheng Ziqing, who didn’t go out today.
Although Wei Miaomiao came out early in the morning, her state was very different from yesterday. Yesterday she would cry and scream, but today she seems to be a walking dead.
The breakfast prepared by the hostess today is boiled eggs and fried buns.
Zhao Sha whispered to Lu Tingliu, “Will something happen to Cheng Ziqing?”
Lu Tingliu said: “Most likely.”
Two people will be killed, if you are lucky, you can survive this copy, right?”
Lu Tingliu: “Maybe.”
Shi Li took a deep breath: “Let’s go to Cheng Ziqing’s house.”
The four of them go up, or ask Mother Zhou to open the door for them.
Different from Cui Weihui’s room, Cheng Ziqing’s room was clean, he didn’t seem to struggle much, except for a little blood on the bed, there was nothing else.
No clues left.
At noon, the hostess brought out a roast duck.
Finally, Zhao Sha and Shi Li couldn’t hold back, they ran upstairs under the pretext and vomited in the bathroom.
“Don’t you eat roast duck?” asked the hostess.
The little girl was frightened and cried, “Mom! You keep doing these disgusting things!”
The hostess glanced at her, her face was full of sadness, she sat down silently and ate by herself.
Lu Tingliu looked at the little girl.
The little girl’s big eyes flickered and she buried herself in eating.
After lunch, the hostess was busy in the kitchen, and could hear faint crying, as if she was hurt by what her daughter said was disgusting. Zhou’s mother was cleaning the windows and the floor, two Child playing with blocks in the living room.
Lu Tingliu whispered to Shili and Zhao Sha: “Yesterday I found an underground secret door in the courtyard, you go check it out, pay attention to safety, if it is found, pretend it is not intentional, Get over it.”
Shi Li was a little hesitant. In fact, his thoughts were a bit like Wei Miaomiao. If only one person died in a night, he had a good chance of surviving, and there was no need to take risks.
Zhao Sha did not worry so much and agreed.
Shi Li thought about it and decided to go with Zhao Sha.
After they left, Lu Tingliu said to the two children, “I’ll tell you a story, do you want to hear it?”
The little girl was very close to her, nodding her thoughts.
The little boy looked indifferent.
Luting Liuka took two seconds and decided to tell the storyline of the dog-blooded youth drama “First Love Emotions” in which she played the role of a terminally ill girl with harmonica.
After Zhou Ma went to the second floor to clean up, Lu Tingliu smiled and opened her hand to the little girl and said, “Want to sit on my lap and listen?”
The little girl climbed up happily.
Lu Tingliu took her hand.
Shallow rays of light converge on the clasped hands of the two.
Xianyu Taoist was stunned for a moment: “This is…”
A card appeared in the light, this time, someone could see the words on it clearly.
The barrage said excitedly: “[Lulu-Yin Yang Eye]!! Is this a temporary card?”
[Current split personality: 7/147]
[Name: Lulu]
[Abilities: Yin Yang Eyes]
[Side Effects: Dizziness]
【Split Lulu】
[Duration of this personality: 10 minutes. 】
[Personality switching cooldown: 3 hours. 】
Lu Tingliu opened her eyes, just like the little girl, her left eye was blue and black, and her right eye was dark brown.
The audience in her personal live room were all taken aback.
From her perspective, the living room of this castle is no longer an empty and warm living room, the fireplace is crackling, and many translucent human souls are standing.
Lu Tingliu saw Cui Weihui and Cheng Ziqing.
Cui Weihui’s hands are much lighter than other parts of the soul, and Cheng Ziqing has many burn marks on his body.
They’re screaming: “Run! Run! Run—”
…
Shi Li and Zhao Sha found the secret door that Lu Tingliu said in the heavy snow and the thick snow in the courtyard.
Because they sneaked out, so they didn’t have a coat, the two were shivering with cold, Shili looked at the heavy iron lock and chain, and glanced at Zhao Sha: “You have Is there a way to open it?”
Zhao Sha hesitated: “I…try.”
She stretched out her palm, feeling the cyclone condensed in her palm, and slammed it down suddenly, causing a gust of snow.
The chain is cracked.
Zhao Sha patted the second palm, and the chain broke.
Shi Li looked up and saw Zhou Ma quietly looking out of the window, he picked up Zhao Sha and ran away.
“What are you doing?” Zhao Sha said dissatisfied, “I almost opened it!”
Shi Li gasped and said, “That mother Zhou saw us.”
Zhao Sha said: “Then what to do… We have to go back. The copy request is to stay in the castle for three days, and the snow is so heavy outside, we will freeze to death if we don’t go back. “
Shi Li squatted down and said, “I think about it.”
In the end, the two of them didn’t come up with any good tricks, so they could only bite the bullet and go back to the castle.
They were numb from the cold. After returning, Lu Tingliu quickly gave them a cup of hot water.
Mother Zhou glanced at them, took clean clothes from the laundry room, and said nothing.
It was dinner time.
After dinner, the hostess looked out the window and said happily: “Oh, why does the snow keep on coming, you stay here for a longer time, I will treat you well.”
Lu Tingliu said: “I’m a little tired and want to go back to the room to rest early.”
The hostess said with concern: “Are you okay? Don’t get sick.”
Lu Tingliu said: “It’s not a big problem.”
She went upstairs, returned to her room, opened Lulu’s personality, and looked around, but found no trace of ghosts.
Lu Tingliu looked at the countdown of the personality, opened the door and shouted downstairs: “Zhao Sha! Come on!”
Zhao Sha ran up, and Lu Tingliu asked her to open her room.
After entering Zhao Sha’s room, Lu Tingliu saw the female ghost hanging from the ceiling.
She said to Zhao Sha with a natural face: “You go out first.”
Zhao Sha nodded, went out and closed the door for her.
Lu Tingliu reached out and shook it in front of the female ghost: “Can you see me?”
The female ghost looked dull: “You can see me???”
“Well,” Lu Tingliu sat cross-legged on the floor and patted the ground, “Come down, I don’t have much time, pick up important things and say.”
The female ghost: “…?”
Lu Tingliu said: “Most of the ghosts in the living room are the original servants of this ancient castle. It is not convenient for them to say what happened in this ancient castle, but the cook said that ten days The blizzard on the front mountain trapped a group of tourists, who lived on the second floor and disappeared one by one. Is that just you?”
The female ghost couldn’t help: “Why should I—”
, and then find the next one.”
The female ghost did not pretend to be a hanged ghost, fell to the ground, and said respectfully: “Yes, we were tourists ten days ago, six people, living on the second floor.”
“How did you die?”
“When I was sleeping, I woke up in the middle of the night and saw the hostess and her son standing beside my bed with a knife in their hands. I wanted to resist, but found my body limp, probably because of being Get the medicine, then the little boy climbed onto the bed with a knife, slit my throat, and drank my blood from the wound in my neck. Then I died.”
Lu Tingliu thought for a while: “When you came to stay here, did the servant prepare you with animal patterns on the clothes?”
“Yes,” said the female ghost, “I live in this room, it’s a little quail.”
“You didn’t go downstairs after you became a ghost?”
“No, we can’t go down, only—” The description of the female ghost suddenly became ferocious, she pounced on Lu Tingliu, and shouted at the same time, “Only by possessing a living person can— “
Lu Tingliu raised his hand, the sword light flashed, and the body of the female ghost was separated. She can still speak, giggling: “I have already died once and turned into a ghost, how can I die again…die…die…once…no, impossible…impossible…”
She dissipated.
Lu Tingliu answered seriously to the air: “Because the lightsaber is SR level and has a source.”
…
Downstairs in the living room, the hostess is reading fairy tales to the two children.
When Lu Tingliu went downstairs, the hostess interrupted her study and asked her, “Have you rested?”
“Well, it’s too early, I still can’t sleep.”
The hostess smiled: “Then come down and listen.”
After the fairy tale part is over, the two children go upstairs to sleep.
Lu Tingliu gathered Shi Li, Zhao Sha and Wei Miaomiao together and said, “There is a high probability that the little boy is the contamination of this copy.”
She repeated what the female ghost said, and said: “In addition to the hostess and the little boy, there are ghosts in this castle, be careful of them.”
Zhao Sha said in a low voice: “My God.”
Shiri also felt a little chill.
Only Wei Miaomiao looked very strange.
Lu Tingliu said: “This copy was not given to the mobile phone, and Cui Weihui and Cheng Ziqing died too quietly at night, or we were drugged and so slept too dead, Either the soundproofing of the room is too good, in short, it is dangerous to face them alone.”
Zhao Sha said: “Then we… As we said to Cheng Ziqing, it’s better to strike first?”
Several people were silent.
After a while, Shi Li said: “I’m still a little afraid that if I start first, it will trigger more terrifying changes.”
“In this way,” Lu Tingliu said, “Tonight we will try to play cards in the living room all night. Everyone gathers together, whether it’s Zhou’s mother or the hostess, don’t worry about it, just play Make up your mind to play here. They can’t force us to go upstairs to sleep as long as there is a reasonable reason?”
