Chapter 2: The Courage Test

Courage test game is a more popular game recently, it is said to be from abroad, this kind of game is usually held in the dark night, because people are born with a sense of fear of darkness, as well as the horror of potential things, the place is generally selected in the cemetery, forest, ruins and other places that exude a terrifying atmosphere, but now the test of courage game for the sake of safety, is generally selected in a safe and terrifying cemetery and narrow mountain road.

The gameplay is very simple, choose the designated location, before the start of the test game, generally tell a ghost story related to this place, the participants in small groups, in order to go to the designated place, in order to ensure that the participants do reach the end, will put some props in the place of the turnback, let each person take one back.

On the pre-set route, prepare scary props in advance, arrange for another part of the people to try their best to scare people, the person in charge of scare, cover it with a white cloth, or pretend to be a demon, white bones, etc. to scare the participants, you can also create a variety of scary sounds, or put down the pole to touch each other and a series of methods.

This game is undoubtedly a good way to relax and study nervously for high school students who are tired of boring make-up classes, and it seems that the class president and the study committee members also have ideas, and they have been planning for a long time, and they have won the support of their classmates as soon as they were announced today.

Long Daoling heard everyone talking about tonight's activities in the classroom, and couldn't help but shake his head, and when it came to the lunch break, everyone was even more lively to discuss the location of tonight and other issues, Long Daoling had to hold the book and look at it intently, trying to distract himself, but he was still pulled by Chen Dong at the same table: "Daoling, you must participate tonight, you also know that we are about to take the college entrance examination, and we will not have the opportunity to do this kind of group game together next year, and we may not be able to meet at that time." ”

Chen Dong is Long Daoling's tablemate, and he can say a few words in the class, because Long Daoling feels that the other students are very silent and a person who doesn't talk much, but this is not what Long Daoling wants, maybe there is still a shadow of his talent in his heart, and he has seen more ghosts than people over the years, and he has unintentionally become such a character.

Because Chen Dong and him are at the same table and are relatively close people, and Chen Dong takes the initiative to chat with him, so the only person Long Daoling can talk to is him, Long Daoling heard this, put down the textbook in his hand, and whispered to Chen Dong with some embarrassment: "Why do the squad leaders want to play this kind of game, it's not good to go to those places at night!" ”

"Dao Ling, are you... scared?" Chen Dong blinked meaningfully and said with a smile.

When Long Daoling heard Chen Dong's words, he knew that he was going to tease him, but he didn't answer, and said, "Okay, I knew that you would say that, and I didn't say that I wouldn't participate, I don't know where to choose?" ”

"Hehe, I knew you wouldn't refuse, I heard that in the woods near the school, it's rumored to be haunted, and the atmosphere is the most suitable place to play a test of courage." Chen Dong said with some excitement.

Long Daoling usually goes home except for class, and he has never heard of these rumors in the town, and he has not been there, and he doesn't know if it's true or not, after all, it is the last group activity in high school, and it won't work if he doesn't go, so he just nodded suspiciously and agreed.

After a while, the class leader and some students began to discuss how to arrange the scene, how to group groups and other specific details, and finally decided to group them in the form of a lottery, put the list of some students in the class into the box in the form of white slips, and randomly selected 6 groups of people.

After the afternoon class, it was also time to announce the list of 6 groups of people who tried the game tonight, Long Daoling was lucky and was assigned to the last group, his partner was a long-haired girl, her facial features were very exquisite, in Long Daoling's impression, I remember that she seems to be added to He Xiaoice, usually everyone is not very familiar.

"You kid is really lucky, you actually partner with a girl!" Chen Dong said with a wicked smile.

Long Daoling was also teaming up with a girl for the first time, feeling a little shy, and seemed to be a little nervous, the other party also looked at her, and seemed a little embarrassed, and when the announcement was over, he also left the school in a hurry.

After dinner, Long Daoling changed into a more casual outfit, ready to leave for the meeting place, before going out, his aunt explained everything and asked him to come back early, Long Daoling nodded and agreed, and then left the house.

Tonight's night is thick, the bleak woods on the side of the road, one by one, the miserable white moonlight through the shadows of the trees, the quiet and uninhabited road, silently revealing the taste of loneliness, the street lamp seems to be a short circuit, from the yellow old lampshade from time to time flashing a faint light, a moment white, a moment yellow, it looks a little weird.

Long Daoling walked on this trail and couldn't help but feel a little chilly, fear arose, spontaneously accelerated, and after a while, he came to the gathering point of the students, at this time, some of the students also arrived, it seemed a little lively, seeing such a scene, Long Daoling felt very relieved.

Chen Dong saw Long Daoling coming, and immediately beckoned him to come over, there are only about 10 students who came here, and the other students are not here, maybe there are other arrangements, they gather in a clearing outside the woods, some lamps have been installed here, which is particularly bright, and there are tables, chairs, snacks and drinks, it seems that the class leader has prepared very carefully.

The squad leader looked at the time, then summoned everyone over and announced to them that the test of courage game was about to begin.

Next, the squad leader briefly explained the route inside, as well as the signs that have been set up, several of their class cadres in the broad daylight, they organized a group of students to come here to arrange the scene, this forest is quite big, and I don't want everyone to go too deep inside, let everyone follow the direction of the indicated route, after all, the woods are very large, or at night, it will be easy to get lost if you are not careful, and the squad leader does not want everyone to have any accidents.

Long Daoling looked ahead, they were about to enter it later, the black trees looked very quiet under the moonlight, and he couldn't see anything for the time being, but he always felt that something was not right, but he couldn't say it.

Then, the squad leader lowered his voice and told everyone a terrifying legend about this wood・・・・・・

This forest near the school, legend has it that many students have died here, and it is impossible to verify whether this thing is true or not, just like every school will have some legends, and some people will die from these legends.

But many people believe in this terrible legend, because in such a scarce land in this town, there is such a large forest near the school, which is already a very luxurious thing, and the legend has it that the school also wanted to build a staff dormitory here, after all, it is relatively close to the school, but it was forced to stop for some reason before the official start of construction, it seems to be related to the legend of ghosts and gods, according to the locals, few people dare to go to this forest, even if they go in, they never come out.

Legend has it that in the beginning, it was a beautiful wood, which became a place for many couples to date, and at night the security guards also liked to come here to catch those students who sneaked out of the dormitory without sleeping at night, although it was at school, it was still very unsafe to stay in the woods at night.

Even if you don't meet any bad people, it's not a good thing that you get bitten by some snakes, insects, rats and ants.

One night, while the security guard was on patrol, he noticed a girl hanging from the tree. The security guard was frightened, and quickly called the police, and put the girl down, the security guard wanted to save the girl, but the girl's body had become cold and stiff.

Later, after the police investigation, it was found that the girl was empathized with by her boyfriend, and after being abandoned, she went to the place where they used to date and hanged herself.

Since then, there have been supernatural incidents in this forest, and some students said that they saw a white-clothed classmate wandering inside. But when he walked up, he found only one piece of clothing hanging empty.

But the classmate obviously saw a girl passing by there, and he didn't know why a good girl turned into a dress in the blink of an eye, and then it didn't take long for the boy who abandoned the girl to hang himself in the same position, and when he died, his eyes bulged out, as if he had seen something terrible.

There are endless legends about this terrifying forest, and it has evolved to the point that as long as the girl who has been abandoned by the negative man, as long as she goes to the woods to make a wish, the girl who hanged herself will grant your wish.

At that time, there was a beautiful girl named Xiaolan, she didn't believe in this strange legend, she also had a boyfriend at that time, and she was completely immersed in the happiness of love, constantly enjoying, and constantly giving.

Maybe after getting along for a long time, the boy found more and more that her temper was not very good, and he often couldn't stand it, so he proposed to Xiaolan to break up. But Xiaolan didn't want to say anything, because she paid too much and there was no return for what she paid, and she resolutely disagreed with breaking up with the boy.

But the boy behaved very resolutely, Xiaolan was heartbroken, she didn't expect her boyfriend to be so ruthless to herself, she didn't care about her feelings at all, and she didn't care about the fact that she had paid so much for him, the more she thought about it, the more angry she became.

So she remembered the legend, came to this terrible wood, told the forest about the relationship between herself and her boyfriend, and she cursed her boyfriend to die a good death. Hoping to let her boyfriend get retribution, she just fainted for a while, and when he calmed down, he didn't really think about his boyfriend's death.

She wasn't sure if this legend was true, she didn't know if it would work, so she began to be a little worried, and when she was in class, she secretly ran to her boyfriend's class to check, but found that her boyfriend was not in the classroom, and felt strange.

However, the next day, her boyfriend died in the woods, the death was strange, she was stunned when she learned the news, she didn't expect the curse to be such a miracle, she cursed him yesterday, and he died today.

At this time, she couldn't tell what it was like in her heart, she hated her boyfriend for abandoning her, but she also loved him equally. She was very reluctant, unwilling to let her boyfriend die, Xiaolan regretted a little, regretting that she was too impulsive.

Back in the dormitory, everyone knew about her boyfriend, everyone came up to comfort her, she looked at the classmates in the dormitory blankly, the classmates knew that she needed a quiet environment, so they went to other dormitories to spend the night, leaving her alone.

Late at night, she came alone to the woods to mourn her dead boyfriend, when she was crying secretly, she saw a white figure appear in the woods, she was stunned by the person in front of her, this person in front of her was not a person at all, her skin became purple and black and ulcerated, her eyes were deeply sunken in the sockets, she had a long nylon rope hanging around her neck, there was a bruise on her neck, her tongue spit out, crooked to the side, it looked terrifying.

Xiaolan stepped back and said in horror: "You are the girl who hanged here, you killed my boyfriend!" The female ghost smiled weirdly, "This curse is real, you cursed your boyfriend, he betrayed you and you should die, but the person who initiated the curse must also die!"

After speaking, the female ghost stretched out the hand of the field leader and stuck it on Xiaolan's neck, Xiaolan felt that her breathing was becoming more and more difficult, she instinctively wanted to break the female ghost's hand, but the female ghost's hand was like two steel tongs, strangling her neck, Xiaolan felt that her eyes were getting more and more dilated, life was getting farther and farther away from herself, and in her remaining consciousness, she could still hear the female ghost's sinister laughter・・・・・

"The legend of the woods, it's true!" The squad leader said in a deep voice.

This story really scared the others, and everyone present got goosebumps from the squad leader's words.

"Squad leader, don't talk about it, this story you said doesn't seem to be very beneficial to us boys?" Chen Dong interjected.

The squad leader smiled and said: "Okay, I've just heard of this legend, and it doesn't seem to be here, but it just happens to set off the atmosphere of the environment, so let's start now!" ”

Then, they were divided into 6 groups, each with a flashlight, and began to enter in order, they only needed to reach their destination in the woods, and bring out a rope called "female ghost" to be completed, one group entered the second group 10 minutes after entering, and so on, and after a while, the fifth group also entered, leaving Long Daoling and He Xiaoice as the last group.

After another 10 minutes, Long Daoling and He Xiaoice walked into the woods one after the other, the woods were so quiet as if everything was sleeping in the fear of death, thick and towering strange plants, in the dark, everything looked so unusual. It's like entering a dark world.

However, the squad leader also installed some emergency light sources on the signs inside, and there will still be some light in the designated route, not too dark, Long Daoling and He Xiaoice two people one after the other, there is nothing to say along the way, it seems too quiet.

In the dark, only two beams of light shot by the flashlight were shaking, in order to break this dull atmosphere, Long Daoling was thinking about taking the initiative to open the topic, but when the words came to his mouth, he didn't know what to say, and he had a headache.

The two of them followed the direction of the sign, and from time to time they heard some creepy screams, which gave people the illusion of entering the underworld, in fact, it was just the screams of other students in front of them, and it seemed that they were frightened, just when they were about to turn the corner, a white figure suddenly appeared in the darkness, which immediately startled them.

"Ahh He Xiaoice screamed in fear and approached Long Daoling's side, but Long Daoling seemed very calm, just as the white shadow approached, he grabbed it casually, and the white shadow also screamed, and the white cloth on his body fell, revealing his true face.

They immediately looked at it, it turned out to be a ghost pretended to be a member of the study committee in the class, seeing that it was recognized, the boy smiled helplessly, ready to say something, suddenly, his expression became very scared, ~ah~ A quick escape was made.

They didn't notice this, and He Xiaoice wasn't so scared at this time, looking at Long Daoling and asking, "Aren't you scared at all?" ”

"Actually, I'm a little scared, but they don't look like them, so I'm not afraid!" Long Daoling touched the back of his head and replied.

"Don't look like it? What do you mean, could it be that you've really seen ghosts, hehe? He Xiaoice said to Long Daoling with a smile.

When Long Daoling heard her ask, he felt that he almost missed his mouth, so he shook his head embarrassedly, didn't say anything, and smirked.

Maybe because of this, the atmosphere eased a lot, they continued to walk forward, it seemed to be quiet along the way, Long Daoling didn't see anything abnormal, after a while, they soon came to the designated place, there was a small stone table, there were some electronic candles on it, emitting a dim light, they took a closer look, the rope was placed there, Long Daoling picked up the rope, and thought: It's done so easily!

"It looks like the mission is done, we can go back, I feel very uncomfortable here!" He Xiaoice said to him.

"yes, we can go out!" Long Daoling also replied happily.

The two turned around and left, walking and walking, He Xiaoice seemed to feel a little wrong, and said to Long Daoling: "Daoling, do you think it's strange, we have been in for so long, except for the study committee member who just saw the ghost, it seems that we haven't seen other students!" ”

"I also feel strange when you say this, they are ahead of us, logically speaking, they should encounter it, is it possible that it is not the same way to turn back, there is another way to go back!" Long Daoling also made some analysis to answer.

He Xiaoice looked at the dark woods around her, she was reluctant to take other ways to go back, and said to Long Daoling: "It's better for us to go back by the road!" ”

Long Daoling also supported her statement, and the two of them also went back the same way, they passed by the place where they had just been frightened by the study committee, and the white cloth on the ground where he had just pretended to be a ghost was still placed, and it seemed that it should not be far from the exit.

However, strange things happened, they walked for a long time and did not return to the outside, all the time back to this place, it was like getting lost, the white cloth on the ground is the best proof, proof that they are going around in circles here, they began to panic a little, overwhelmed, even looking at the white cloth on the ground felt very terrifying.

At this time, the students all gathered outside the woods, they all successfully completed the task and came out, now only Long Daoling and He Xiaoice are left in the group, they have been in for a long time, and everyone is beginning to feel that something is wrong.

"Have you seen Long Daoling and He Xiaoice and the two of them, both of them have been in for so long and haven't come out!" The squad leader asked to everyone.

The other team members all shook their heads, saying that they hadn't seen them, and Chen Dong was also a little anxious and said, "Squad leader, there shouldn't be any accidents, right?" Is there really something in there? ”

"Don't talk nonsense, I heard that legend from other places, it has nothing to do with here, it's just to create a terrifying atmosphere, I'm worried about whether they will go the wrong way, after all, this place is not small, wait a while, if it doesn't come out, we will go in and search for them!" The squad leader said solemnly, after all, the activities organized by the squad do not allow accidents, otherwise the consequences will be very serious.

"Actually, I've seen them inside!" At this time, one of the boys among them did not look very good, this boy was the study committee member who pretended to be a ghost to scare them, and he told everyone about the whereabouts of Long Daoling and He Xiaoice.

After hearing this, the squad leader asked, "Have you seen it, why didn't you say it just now?" ”

"I was hiding in the shadows at that time, and when I saw them appear, I pretended to be a ghost to scare them, who ・・・・・・knows," the boy swallowed his saliva and showed a panicked expression as he said this.

"Don't spit out, say it quickly!" Chen Dong also asked impatiently.

"After I was recognized by them, I was about to come forward to say hello, but at this time I saw a terrible black shadow appear behind them, this black shadow has no eyes and nose, but shows a mouth full of fangs, and is smiling strangely at me, I was frightened, so I couldn't help but run, the boy was still frightened when he thought of this, he didn't tell everyone the real reason for fear, because this black shadow was exactly the same as the ghost he had seen when he had nightmares.

"How can you run away on your own, and what do you let them do if it's really dangerous?" Chen Dong blamed the boy a little angrily.

The squad leader patted Chen Dong on the shoulder and said to him: "Forget it, he is also afraid of it, don't blame him, they shouldn't be okay inside, maybe they are just lost, let's go in and have a look!" ”
