Chapter 33 Paradox Room

The loop has begun.

As the two walked out of the room, the door behind them closed with an irresistible force, blocking their way back.

The system prompt just now more or less relieved Gu Bin and his two fears. When they realized that they were still playing a virtual game, the original fear caused by extreme depression greatly weakened.

The two men held steel pipes and machetes and knocked on all the places they could knock, from the locked toilet door to the window with iron railings, without exception. However, no matter how strong they used, Xu Qing even used his skills to knock on the glass, and the result was the same. The only change was that Xu Qing shook off two drops of his health because he used too much force.

Gu Bin tinked at the toilet door and couldn't see anything like a mirror after a while. In other words, the thing could only be in the toilet. This was a key point, but after a long time of work, there was no movement, which made Gu Bin very distressed.

This is often the case for people. It is like a company employee accepting a task, but the task requirements are unclear. The boss said "get it" and never made a sound again. No matter what the employee did or how he did, he would not respond at all. Even if the employee took off all his clothes and danced breakdancing in front of him, the feeling of powerlessness and frustration was enough to make a person do even more crazy actions.

For example, Gu Bin is now holding a machete in his hand and tilting his head up, cursing loudly there.

After scolding Gu Bin for a while, he gave up. He suddenly felt that this "ghost" had a good temper and almost cursed all the words he could scold. He was not angry. His cultivation during his lifetime must be quite amazing. Of course, it is not ruled out that this ghost cannot understand Mandarin.

Xu Qing walked over and asked, "Do you want to go to the second floor to have a look?"

Gu Bin raised his head and looked at the gloomy second floor with the light. He saw only a little corridor and a protruding corner, and there was nothing else. He nodded to Xu Qing. The two of them immediately moved the cabinet next to him. After putting the position, Xu Qing handed the folded crossbow to Gu Bin. God knew whether the crossbow arrows were useful to ghosts and ghosts.

Xu Qing carefully climbed up the cabinet, trying to keep it from making any noise, and leaped gently to grab the guardrail on the second floor, and took his body up with both hands. However, before he could turn over the guardrail and enter the area on the second floor, Gu Bin's pupils shrank.

He suddenly felt a sensation of coldness, unlike the dampness in the basement, now Gu Bin felt like a gust of wind blew over from somewhere, the coldness penetrated his bone marrow, almost frozen his nerves.

An inexplicable heat came from his chest. Gu Bin subconsciously pulled out the amulet hanging on his neck and he grabbed it in his hand. At this time, a cluster of light yellow flames were burning on the yellow amulet!

"Brother Xu, come down!"

Gu Bin roared, but heard no response. Xu Qing seemed to be fixed, and just stood halfway on the guardrail on the second floor, motionless, looking scary.

Not daring to delay, Gu Bin held the amulet thread in his mouth, climbed up the cabinet with his hands and feet, jumped up, grabbed one of Xu Qing's legs vigorously, and pulled him down from the second floor.

The moment he landed, Gu Bin regretted it. He used a human mat for Xu Qing once, but when he pulled him down, he used a lot of force. He felt like he was going to smash his internal organs out, and his blood volume dropped a lot, falling from a full value of 500 to 415.

Xu Qing recovered at this moment. He only heard him cursing, rolling to the side, picking up the folding crossbow, and raising his hand and having an arrow.

In just a blink of an eye, Gu Bin's eyes captured a figure, a thin and pale figure, and he could still see it as a woman!

His hair was completely blown up. This was definitely not a living person, because Gu Bin saw that there was a large piece of blood stain on the belly of this "woman". What's even more terrifying is that Gu Bin couldn't see her feet at all!

The crossbow arrow was nailed deep into the wall, and the woman standing there was also lost.

"Where has she been?" Xu Qing's eyes turned red and she turned her head to ask.

Only then did Gu Bin realize that there were two black handprints on Xu Qing's arm, and even his skin was slightly sunken, and his slender fingers almost pinched into his muscles.

Then the amulet was picked up again, and the flames on it had been extinguished. What was strange was that the amulet did not get damaged because of this, but the color became much dimmed, and the strange patterns on it became a little blurry.

Gu Bin breathed a sigh of relief and stood up with the wall. The amulet stopped burning, indicating that the unclean thing had temporarily left and there was no danger now.

Shaking the amulet in Xu Qing's hand, Gu Bin panted and walked to the family photo, wiped the dust on it, and looked carefully.

In the family photo, the wife standing on the far right had a happy smile on her face, but for some reason, Gu Bin always felt a gloomy breath on her face now.

"The one who just appeared probably was the mistress of this room."

Gu Bin judged: "The cause of death should be that she was hit in the abdomen by a lukewarm gun. I saw a large piece of blood stain in her belly. It seems that the murder case mentioned on the radio just happened here."

Xu Qing rubbed the black green on his arm with his hands. He felt a little weak. At this time, even if he put a Vajra in front of him or even a more terrifying Transformers, he would feel better, because this kind of thing is physical and can be attacked, but supernatural existences like ghosts are powerless. When he was caught by that inexplicable force, Xu Qing, a bold veteran, was almost scared to pee.

"It's just this ghost?" Xu Qing asked, afraid that he would come out in one breath.

Gu Bin did not keep his thoughts at all, and said in a confident tone: "It must be more than that. I think there are at least two. Look, there are four people who died in this room and its vicinity. The male owner of this family, his wife, the female ghost just now, and then a 6-year-old daughter, and the child in the female ghost's belly, there are no more or less four."

After saying that, he seemed a little unsatisfied and added: "If we were here, we might add two more. At that time, we can consider trying to win over the male ghost and kill the three hostile three, and then we will beat him together."

Xu Qing looked at Gu Bin in a daze. He had never noticed that this guy's nerves would be so irritated before. What is the solution? He still has to die, right?

Seeing Xu Qing as if he was planning to beat him to death first and let him negotiate with the ghosts, Gu Bin smiled awkwardly and said, "Brother Xu, let's put it this way, we are in a game now. Whether it is the overall 'edge' or this ghost house as a small area, they are all part of the game. Since as a game, there must be rules of the game. As long as we follow the rules, we will not cause any problems."

"The task requirement is only two words, that is exploration." Gu Bin showed the task information he just received, pointed to the exploration degree that had jumped from 0% to 12%, and said: "This progress was calculated after we left the basement. When we searched for this position, the progress increased by only 2% but when we tried to enter the second floor, the progress suddenly increased by 10%!"

"This exploration is not about searching and finding clues in the actual sense, because I dare say that this room does not exist at all in terms of physical sense!"

Gu Bin found a temporary drawing board from the system tool, called it out, drew a few lines on it with his hands, and explained: "First of all, this room has a second floor, but there are no stairs. I don't believe that this family will rely on flying to the stairs to fly. Then, a house must at least have a kitchen, right? Don't tell me that they cook on the second floor or simply cook in the toilet!"

As he said that, he pointed to the entrance of the basement a few meters away and said, "These steps lead to the basement, and then the other exit of the basement is in the corridor parallel to us. Is this reasonable? There are only stairs down, but there are no stairs up. We should be walking down all the time, which is completely impossible unless we are walking towards hell."

Xu Qing was a little puzzled and asked, "What do you mean is that we have to find a way to figure out what this place is now, instead of continuing to search? But the house is so big that we have turned over the places we should turn over. Should we go to the second floor again?"

Gu Bin shook his head and said, "This house is a paradox. We cannot use common sense to understand and analyze it. The only thing that can create an unscientific house is the ghost here. Brother Xu, I suspect that your previous experience of entering here does not exist. It is an illusion. The ghost here does not want us to die, but wants us to find something."

"We cannot go up the second floor. This is a place outside the rules. Since the master does not allow us to go up, then we will continue to walk and pay attention to the changes around us. Our amulets cannot last for too long, so we cannot act rashly anymore."

After saying that, Gu Bin picked up his machete, weighed it in his hand twice, and walked towards the basement door.
