Being cheated again

This five hundred thousand was a huge sum of money in 1996. In order to get this bonus, and to make up for the debt she and her brother had spent together over the years, Wen Xiaorou brought her younger brother, Wen Baizhe, who was still in college, with her.

Let’s go to Huaixian Town together.

After traveling all the way through mountains and rivers, they finally arrived at Huaixian Town today. In order to take care of "Wen Xiaorou" who fainted, they discussed it with the team members and decided to stay in a hotel.

Huaixian Town is an economically backward ancient town. The cracks in the tile walls are covered with traces of historical erosion. Looking down from the hotel window, an ancient stone path winds through, and leafy locust trees can be seen everywhere with the breeze.

Make a rustling sound.

Seeing this scene that could only be seen in TV dramas, documentaries and historical attractions so realistically presented in front of him, Lin Jiu couldn't help but sigh that the production of this game really spared the cost and energy, and was able to restore history so vividly.

reality.

With these scenery in front of you, no matter how bad the game is, there will still be many people coming in. After all, being so close to the past is a rare experience.

In the next few days, Lin Jiu and his team searched for clues left by the company in Huaixian Town. Although the plot was quite exhausting and interesting, Lin Jiu gradually lost interest.

These days, he has been constantly looking for clues to the mission, but the hospitable people of Huaixian Town are like followers and never give him a chance to be alone.

Even if he finally escapes, nothing suspicious can be found.

Not to mention the fourth task. He asked everyone in the town and everyone said that there was no such person in the town. Lin Jiu even wondered if it was a game bug.

The cover scene that he had longed for has not appeared for a long time, and the game content so far is all decryption that has nothing to do with the game label, which makes Lin Jiu feel dissatisfied and disappointed that he has been deceived.

He played this game first because of its cover, and secondly because of the horror elements marked on it, but he had been playing it for a while, and except for the occasional sense of voyeurism, he couldn't feel any horror labels at all.

Content.

He felt that he had been cheated again.

However, he accepted the money. Out of the most basic professional ethics, Lin Jiu endured boredom and continued to play.

After the efforts of the five people, and with Lin Jiu's gradually losing patience, they finally found the burial place of the treasure and won the 500,000 bonus of this event in one fell swoop.

Just as they were discussing leaving, "Wen Xiaorou", who usually showed no abnormality, suddenly fainted.

Because the company had confirmed that they were the first team to discover where the treasure was buried, and the day after the news came back to the company, the bonuses were evenly credited to their cards. And because the Wen family had the most input in the search process, they were not in a hurry.

The three team members who returned simply stayed to take care of "Wen Xiaorou".

It was summer, and the most popular TV series of 1996 was playing on the color TV. The fan on the ceiling was spinning, and with the non-stop chirping of cicadas outside the window, Lin Jiu felt that her mood was becoming more and more irritable.

stand up.

Lin Jiu found that whenever he controlled Wen Xiaorou's body to leave Huaixian Town, he would always faint uncontrollably, as if there was a force preventing Wen Xiaorou from leaving.

As the time spent in Huaixian Town gradually lengthened, he could clearly feel that Wen Xiaorou's body was getting weaker and weaker. Occasionally when he got up in the middle of the night to go to the toilet, he seemed to be able to see something hiding in the darkness.

The feeling of being spied on became stronger and stronger, but when he looked for the source of the prying eyes, he always came back in vain.

Because "she" had not improved for a long time, his younger brother wanted to take "her" to the county hospital for a checkup several times, but he put it on hold because of the remote location of Huaixian Town and the inconvenient transportation.

On the night when Wen Baizhe went to seek help from the mayor again and wanted to leave Huaixian Town quickly but was blocked with various excuses, Lin Jiu vaguely heard someone calling the body's name, and the voice calling Wen Xiaorou was very loud.

Familiar, so familiar that Lin Jiu had no defense at all.

As if she was sleepwalking, "Wen Xiaorou" got up from the bed and left the room barefoot. Even if she stepped on gravel, "she" did not react and continued walking forward.

Under the pale moonlight, the town of Huaixian without any lights was completely silent. Not a single sound of chickens or dogs could be heard, and even the most common insect sounds had completely disappeared.

The main road, which didn't seem to have anything wrong during the day, suddenly became gloomy at night. The tall locust trees cast shadows on the ground with their claws and claws, and the wind kept whistling, as if calling someone's name.

Halfway through the journey, Lin Jiu, who had been sleeping in a daze, finally woke up. Looking at the strange and strange environment around him and his uncontrollable body, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

The faint calling continued. Lin Jiu tried to regain control of Wen Xiaorou's body, but no matter how hard he tried, it was to no avail.

Her consciousness is absolutely awake, but her body is not at all under control. To outsiders, "Wen Xiaorou" seems to be suffering from sleepwalking, but only Lin Jiu knows that her current situation is definitely not sleepwalking.

As the surrounding environment becomes more and more remote, "Wen Xiaorou's" feet have become dripping with blood, leaving bloody footprints every step of the way.

The mountain wind was blowing loudly, and the owl's shrill call sounded in the forest. Seeing that "Wen Xiaorou" had entered the area behind the mountain, looking at the figure hidden in the darkness, it seemed that it would swallow people up in the next second.

In the back of her belly, Lin Jiu's ominous premonition grew stronger.

Weird human voices came from a distance, accompanied by the sad and sad sound of musical instruments. Lin Jiu discovered that "Wen Xiaorou" gradually changed from walking to trotting, and the direction she was heading was exactly the source of the sound.

While running, because the surrounding light was too dim, "Wen Xiaorou" accidentally bumped into something with her knee. She jumped forward, and a layer of skin was instantly scraped off her white and tender palms.

Lin Jiu could feel the burning pain in her palms, but "Wen Xiaorou" got up and continued running forward like a puppet that couldn't feel anything.

There was a faint firelight in the distance, and the hoarse and unpleasant sound of crows was mixed in, as if they were afraid of something.

Just when "Wen Xiaorou" was running towards the fire with all her strength, and Lin Jiuwan was extremely anxious, a big ice-like hand suddenly grabbed "Wen Xiaorou" from behind, stopping her from moving forward.

The visitor held Wen Xiaorou's waist tightly with one hand and covered her mouth with the other hand to prevent her from making any sound.

This stimulation did not make "Wen Xiaorou" wake up. She struggled hard to move forward, and her waving hands hit the person hugging her hard again and again.
