Judging from the contents of the diary and stationery left behind by Chen Ping, it turns out that Chen Ping failed the entrance examination and was conspired with her father by her stepmother to trick her into this remote mountain and marry an older fool.
It takes nearly a day just to get to this deep mountain and old forest by car. There are only a few families here, and they are all close relatives. It is difficult to leave secretly, let alone communicate with the outside world.
.
This place is like a natural cage. Once you get in, it is difficult to get out, trapping the people inside alive.
Maybe the life Chen Ping wanted was not like this, but she could no longer escape at that time.
But if she got married at that time, why would a wedding invitation be sent to their "players" many years later? Could this have something to do with them clearing the secret room? But that invitation was taken by that man
After leaving, he never came back. Now I don’t know if he returned to the lounge or was captured by the monster.
There seemed to be a hidden compartment at the bottom of the wooden box, because when Jian Yao knocked it, the bottom of the box did not make a sound of solid wood, but made an "empty" sound. Apparently there was a mechanism underneath.
Jian Yao groped around on the board and found that the board was not flat. One corner was slightly raised, and her fingernails could just pass through the gap to pry the board open.
There is only a shallow layer of hidden cells, and apart from a small key, it is a flat map of the mansion.
In addition to the layout of the rooms drawn on the map, there is also a back door to leave the house. However, they need to go back to the small courtyard and then bypass the living room to reach the backyard. This means that they must solve the problem that is constantly bumping into each other.
Only the red ball on the goal line will do.
Just as they were thinking about how to get rid of the ball without touching their skin, there was a sudden sound of fingernails scratching the wood in the master bedroom closet.
In fact, when they first came in, they also noticed the large wardrobe in the master bedroom. The wardrobe was big enough to fit two adults. They also opened it and checked it. There were a few dirty clothes hanging inside.
There is nothing else.
So is the person scratching at the wooden board in the closet now a human or a ghost?
Jian Yao held the Thunder Sword tightly in her hand, opened a crack in the wardrobe and looked inside, only to see a long-haired woman in white stretching out her hands to scratch on the wooden board.
A passage was opened deep in the closet, and dense hair protruded from the passage. A circle of long black hair was tied around the woman's neck, strangling her tightly. Her face was already flushed, and she seemed to have died.
I was out of breath, and my strength to scratch the wooden board was getting weaker and weaker.
Jian Yao suddenly opened the closet door, and the thunder sword directly cut off the hair sticking out from the depth of the closet.
The moment she cut off her hair, Jian Yao seemed to hear a wailing sound coming from the depths of the secret passage, and at the same time, the dense hair quickly retracted from the secret passage.
The part of hair that lost control was loosened from the woman's neck, and then fell on her body with gravity.
The woman was breathing heavily, trying desperately to absorb the oxygen she had lost during this period, and her face looked better than before. However, there was still a purple bruise on her neck, proving that she had just escaped from the hands of death.
The white dress was stained with the liquid in the blood bag, and the black hair was stuck together with the cold sweat on her face. The woman looked in a daze, as if she had not yet recovered from the danger just now.
Jian Yao wanted to reach out and help her out, but the woman was like a frightened bird. She let out a rapid scream and huddled in the corner of the closet.
"Um, are you okay?" Jian Yao withdrew her hand, not daring to provoke the woman any more.
The woman carefully cast her gaze over. After seeing the bright room and a few familiar people, her whole body relaxed. However, her body was still soft. When she was about to come out of the closet, she almost fell down.
She fell to the ground. Fortunately, Jian Yao caught her in time and didn't really fall.
"What happened?" My elder brother came over and asked anxiously.
The woman leaned on Jian Yao's body, as if she had some breathing space, but her face was still pale, and her voice revealed fear.
"I originally arranged to wait in the master bedroom to scare you NPCs. While I was waiting for instructions in the lounge, I suddenly heard a loud noise from the control room. It was like... someone was smashing things over there."
“I originally wanted to go see him, but my colleague ran into the break room covered in blood and said there was a madman with an ax outside, and... I don’t know why the mobile phone had no signal, and I couldn’t even make emergency calls.
"
"The lunatic in the back used an ax to chop down the door of the lounge, so my colleagues and I ran into the secret passage. He followed me, and a lot of hair appeared out of nowhere, and we captured him."
"I was very scared, so I kept running forward, but when I ran into the closet, those hairs strangled my neck... So are my colleagues... will we be like them?"
As the woman spoke, the tears that were suppressed in her eyes could not be held back at this moment, and flowed out directly from her eyes. She never thought that she had encountered a strange incident. Even if she was temporarily out of danger, who would
Knowing when the next danger will come, can she really leave here alive?
"Since you are a staff member here, you must know how to leave this secret room."
The woman shook her head violently and said incoherently: "You can't go out! The madman with the ax is still outside, he will chop us all to death!"
Jian Yao patted her back and comforted her: "There are seven of us here now, and it's actually not safe here."
The woman's trembling body froze after hearing this, and her eyes looked at Jian Yao, as if hoping that what she said was a joke, but the constant banging sounds from the door and their expressions that did not seem to be fake proved that
What they told was not a lie.
"Then... what is that sound? I don't remember that there is such a link in this secret room?" The woman subconsciously grasped Jian Yao's clothes, leaving wrinkles on them with her fingers, her eyes fixed on them.
The direction of the door.
Jian Yao responded casually: "Well, there is a ball hitting the door outside. If it touches your skin, it will suck you dry."
The woman's face was full of shock. Maybe she didn't expect that she had finally escaped from a dangerous place. She thought she was safe for the time being, but she didn't expect that the current situation is like "a tiger in front and a snake in the back". No matter how you go,
