Chapter 10: The Horror of the Castle
Almost as soon as they finished eating, the dishes and chopsticks were put down, and the electronic sound sounded in the castle again.
Yun Shu was so startled by the sudden strange sound that her wrist shook, and the dishes and chopsticks were almost knocked over to the ground.
"At the end of dinner time, please take the elevator to the basement according to the prompts to start this game."
Yun Shu's face tensed and looked around vaguely.
Someone must be staring at them, otherwise it would not have been possible to get stuck at such an accurate time.
However, there is not much furniture in this huge house, and the walls are flat and smooth, so you can see at a glance that there are no cameras like the ones I picked up before, and there are no amplification equipment such as loudspeakers.
Where are those "eyes"? Where did that sound come from?
Is it really a futuristic sci-fi world?
She kept thinking in her heart, but her face was quite calm, and she stood up with Chu Xiaoqin and Lu Mingzhu, pretending to be at a loss and looking around.
Chu Xiaoqin wanted to speak and stopped, but he didn't speak, didn't move, and looked at Yun Shu.
Lu Mingzhu asked in a low voice: "What elevator?" Where is the elevator? ”
They were like outsiders who couldn't find a toilet in the city, and the cramped feeling of fire made her voice eight degrees lower.
Yun Shu, who was asked, didn't have any expression.
"I don't know. But try to look everywhere or just ask. Hey, that sound, where's the elevator? ”
Lu Mingzhu's eyes widened, and she was about to say that she was too tiger, when she heard the electronic voice really respond.
"Please follow the prompts."
This time the sound was clearly no longer overhead, but in front of them, as if someone was standing out of sight of them calling them over.
They followed the sound closer and closer, only to notice that there was a crack in the wall next to a wooden frame where a vase was placed.
As you walk past, a downward sign suddenly lights up on the dark "wall", and then the crack opens.
Lu Mingzhu's eyes widened: "The elevator is in the wall, why did it open on its own?" ”
Yun Shu still said: "I don't know." ”
The three of them tentatively entered the elevator, the elevator door closed, and they quickly descended.
For those who have never experienced this straight-up sensation at all, the moment of activation can make the palms of your hands sweat.
Yun Shu is even more serious, she hates this kind of confined space that will fall heavily at any time if she is not controlled, and she feels that the pores all over her body are open, and she screams uncomfortable.
Fortunately, the elevator soon opened again, and they stepped into the darkness.
As footsteps sounded, the dimly lit basement lit up one by one.
From near to far, the lights are lit up regularly according to the distance, and then the path they follow is also regularly extinguished.
It's a strange feeling, as if the darkness is chasing their footsteps, making people subconsciously want to walk faster to catch up with the light ahead.
By the time they came to their senses, they had reached the middle of the basement, leaning together and looking around warily.
It was rows of wooden shelves, some with wine bottles, some with other things. Black steel wires hang from the top of the head, and several oddly shaped hollow lamps hang from them.
The rest of the place was still dim, and it was not clear what was there.
In this kind of environment, only a mouse can scare people out of the ground, and that sound should not come out at this time.
Whatever you want, the electronic voice flutters out as if deliberate: "Welcome ......"
"Ahh Lu Mingzhu was so frightened that she screamed loudly, and her hand tightly grasped the arm next to her.
The electronic voice was probably startled by her lingering scream, and she couldn't finish her words.
Yun Shu's face was wrinkled, and she pulled away the frightened hand on her arm and put it on Chu Xiaoqin's arm.
"Pinch him."
Chu Xiaoqin: "......"
Lu Mingzhu doesn't care who it is, he grabs someone's arm and grabs it tightly.
When she gasped frantically, the electronic voice spoke again: "Welcome to the third episode of the program, the theme of this issue - Castle Horror." ”
"There are five favorite value bonus cards hidden in the entire basement, and whoever finds them can increase the audience favorite value ranging from 10,000 to 100,000. When all five bonus cards are found, the elevator will automatically turn on again and take you back to the ground.
The maximum time limit of the game is one day and one night, and the guests who do not find the extra score card by the time will be eliminated by default. The countdown to the game starts in five seconds, so I'm lucky—"
The overhead light began to flicker regularly, and after five times, it went out completely.
The basement was completely plunged into darkness.
The three of them got closer, and Yun Shu could hear Chu Xiaoqin's inhalation.
"Mingzhu, don't pinch it."
Lu Mingzhu: "I'm sorry, but I'm really scared. ”
Chu Xiaoqin: "... Can you pinch it a little lighter? ”
There is also a lot of discussion, Yun Shu was a little speechless, and was just about to step away from the team, but was caught by Lu Mingzhu by surprise, and heard her voice trembling and asked:
"Yunshu, you say, why is this game called Castle Horror? Let's look for cards, shouldn't we call the castle to find cards? ”
“…… Do you hear the name for yourself? ”
But she also knew that Lu Mingzhu asked this more because of the meaning of the words "fear".
So she softened her voice again and said intimately: "Since it is called the Castle Horror, there must be a lot of terrifying things, such as hanged ghosts, water ghosts and bride ghosts, have you seen the old corpses in the mountain village?" The bride who was soaked in the sauerkraut jar......"
"Don't talk about it! Let's go! "Lu Mingzhu is about to collapse, and he doesn't raise his head when he hangs on Chu Xiaoqin.
Chu Xiaoqin wanted to pull her down, and almost tore her clothes. He could only say helplessly to Yun Shu: "Don't scare her." ”
Yun Shu shrugged: "Then I'll go first." ”
"Wait, aren't we together?"
"No, I like to act individually."
Chu Xiaoqin couldn't hold back, so he could only watch her turn into a row of wooden frames and disappear into the darkness.
It is not very convenient to walk in the dark, so you can only try to come, but when your hand touches the wooden frame, the things on it will make a noise, such as those wine bottles, and the crisp sound of touching them will stop for a while, which makes people panic.
Yun Shu pursed her lips and groped forward, with no expression on her face, when she touched the wooden frame, her hand touched it, and she didn't let go of the gap in the wine bottle, looking like she was not afraid of touching anything strange.
Chu Xiaoqin and Lu Mingzhu also moved, and the sound of Xi Xi Suo Suo was heard not far away, and the sound of their breathing was as heavy as if they were injured.
If this was in an anti-Japanese drama, it would have been found by the little ghost/sub.
She thought about something messy, and just pressed her hand on the second row of the wooden frame, and before she could touch the bottle, the wooden frame suddenly parted from the middle, and she didn't have time to retract her strength, and fell forward and fell to the ground.
There was a muffled sound, and Lu Mingzhu on the other side immediately asked loudly: "Yun Shu?" Is that you? What are you working on? ”
"It's fine."
The corners of Yun Shu's lips pursed even tighter, and she got up and squinted back slightly at the wooden frame that automatically split in two.
When I turned around, something suddenly fell from behind me, and it didn't hit the ground, as if it bounced twice in the air and was finally hung by a rope.
In the Castle of Terror, what will be tied up and fall from the top of your head?
She paused, didn't turn her head to look, and touched a bottle of wine on the wooden shelf.
Calmly took the bottle off, grabbed the bottleneck, and then slammed the bottle on the with the speed of a quick twist!
"Bang!"
The pale long-haired ghost head was directly smashed to pieces, and while swinging to the opposite side on the rope, it was scattered and fell to the ground along with the fragments of the broken wine bottle, and there were several muffled sounds.
