Thriller Paradise Chapter 38: Shanchi Haunted House (5)
Feng Bujue continued to walk down the tunnel. The horrible scene had no effect on him. He went forward normally without any pressure.
After a short while, he came to the end of the tunnel, in a small, damp cellar.
There is a cell door in the cellar. This is not surprising. In more distant times, the cellar under the big house was basically used as a cell for some evil purpose. Now it has become a stop. The place of spirit. The floor and the walls of the corridor were carefully covered with copper. The heavy iron prison door was so heavy that once it was pushed open, the hinges would make an unusually harsh creak. A coffin was parked in the middle of the cell. When I illuminate the light with a flashlight a few steps away, I know that the lid of the coffin was not nailed down at all, and it was not even properly covered...
Feng Bujue opened the iron door and walked in, but he did not rush to lift the coffin lid. Instead, he searched the surrounding walls with a flashlight. As expected, there was something to be gained. On one of the walls. , He found another paragraph in "Ghost Palace", this time it was written by the blood:
[But the demon in the robe of grief,
killed the noble king;
(Ah! Let us mourn, the dawn will no longer fall on him, it is extremely sad!)
The glory that enveloped his old house,
used to bloom like flowers,
has become a bleak past,
I want to be buried by the years. 】
"Hmm... is it the fifth paragraph." Feng Bujue said in a low voice after reading it.
The system prompt sounded: [Update on the progress of the branch mission]
The information in the taskbar has also become: [Find all six "Ghost Palace", current progress 3/6]
Feng Bujue walked to the coffin, raised a flashlight in one hand, clenched a fist in the other, like knocking on the door, knocking on the coffin board three times: "Hey, Miss Madeleine, you are still there Is it?" He didn't know how he knew the name.
…………
With the passage of time, the shock value of Brave Invincible has gradually increased to about 15%, and has stabilized at this value. He will panic not because of encountering a substantial monster, but because he has searched for a while After time, there is no way to leave the second floor...
Every corridor, every room, as well as the paintings, sconces, and decorations on the walls, look strange, yet familiar.
This building exhibits an obvious spatial anomaly, and its interior is much larger than it looks from the outside. The length of the corridor seems to be changing all the time. If you count the doors on both sides of the corridor, you will get a different number each time. And so far, Brave Invincible has also failed to reach the end of any corridor. As long as he reaches the end of a certain section, he will see a new corner or T-shaped intersection.
Performing general walking actions, the consumption of physical energy is minimal, and only "long time" walking will there be a significant decline in physical fitness. This is similar to the reality. If you let a person walk on foot for more than 20 minutes, he will feel a little tired, and his legs will feel sore for more than 40 minutes. If it is more than an hour, you must stop and adjust. Of course, the examples cited here are ordinary people, not professional athletes.
This kind of exhaustion accumulates gradually, and the more obvious it gets over time. Under the erosion of fear, Brave Invincible’s reaction accelerated. When he saw that his stamina began to decline at a visible rate, he did not calmly choose to rest, but chose to speed up the progress...
He is not exploring, but running away.
He got a strong psychological suggestion that if he doesn’t do something as soon as possible, it’s not just being trapped. When his stamina drops to a certain level, there may be something to find him in the dark. ...
"Ha...Ha..." The brave's breath became heavy. He looked at the game menu, and he clearly had a physical fitness value of about 1,000, and he was not running, just walking quickly. It's just going, it shouldn't be this way.
He stopped, resting his hands on his knees, breathing well, and swallowed. At this moment, he suddenly noticed something strange in his abdomen, but he couldn't tell exactly what it was like.
"What's going on..." Brave Invincible whispered, talking to himself can offset some of the effects of fear and help him concentrate.
Suddenly, his gaze caught a glimpse of something, he turned his face away, and found that there was a mirror beside him, a rectangular mirror about two meters high, embedded in the wall of the corridor, surrounded by wooden frames. , The carvings are simple but exquisite.
"Weird...Is there this just now?" He couldn't help asking, with a look of confusion on his face.
At this time, the Brave Invincible has long been numbly looking ahead, looking at the end of the corridor in the distance, heading forward, no longer paying attention to the number of doors on both sides of the corridor, let alone observing the portraits, wall lamps, and sculptures. Such accessories. But this corridor was not particularly wide. It was the first time that something like a mirror appeared, and it was such a big mirror. There was no reason why he could not notice.
When he found the mirror, Brave Invincible was facing the mirror side, in a posture of bending over, supporting his knees with both hands, but after turning his attention to the mirror, he straightened up instinctively and turned the front face. past. This turn around scared him almost back.
The image in the mirror looks no different from the deity, but in that mirror, his entire abdominal cavity is exposed, and there is no clothing or skin on the abdomen. At first glance, he can directly see a ball of intestines.
Brave Invincible gasped in an instant, his face turned pale, he stepped back and leaned his back against the other wall in the corridor. He stared, his breathing stopped for nearly ten seconds.
"Illusion...This is an illusion..." After he recovered a little bit of calmness, he walked to the mirror with a cruel face, "Scare anyone... Isn't it just seeing his own internal organs?" In this way, the shock value is not deceiving, he is still very scared, but people will have various reactions when they are extremely scared, and being angry and being ruthless is one of them.
The invincible gaze of the brave fell on his abdomen in the mirror involuntarily, and it can be seen that the intestines inside seem to be still squirming. Look more carefully, you can see some weird details...
The cross-section of the intestines gets more and more weird... it looks like... like a corridor!
He felt that his back spine was cold, and his neck was so stiff that he couldn't move. Two seconds later, he shouted angrily, kicked the mirror, smashed it, and then turned to leave.
Who knows, as soon as he turned around, he noticed that there were many such mirrors on both sides of the corridor in front of him. The original door of the room was gone, but the mirrors were almost everywhere.
"Ah!!!" Brother Invincible roared, and rushed forward without squinting. He didn't know whether this situation was an illusion or the actual change in the big house, but he felt fear and danger. , He didn't want to stay in these corridors for a second.
screamed, a figure broke the glass window and emerged from the broken window on the second floor of the big house.
The moment fell from the air, the Brave was unprepared. The first second he was in front of him was in the corridor. He was running in the middle of the corridor. There was clearly a road ahead. The next second, the glass cuts the skin and hits. The pain came suddenly, he seemed to hit something, and his body immediately lost his center of gravity and began to fall.
A short while before he died, he saw the scene outside the house.
The moldy stone wall, the dead trees surrounding it, and the twisted and huge black reflection in the backwater of the mountain pool. The gloomy and terrifying breath constantly seeps from the pool water, gables, and the depths of the big house, and darkness tilts on the material and spiritual world at the same time.
In the invisible zen silence, the brave invincible fell into the mountain pool outside the house, and the ghostly pool swallowed it. There was not even a sound from his throat, and the huge house in front of him was like an indifferent The magical shadow, looking down at the decline of another life.
The last thing reflected in the eyes of this professional player... is a **** moon sinking in the sky.

[Team members: the brave is invincible, dead, a plot item was transferred]
The system prompt sounded, which surprised Wang Tanzhi and Long Aomin.
"No! The fifteenth-level professional players just died!" Wang Tanzhi said in surprise~IndoMTL.com~ He specially opened the game menu and looked at the team column to confirm. Sure enough, the player's name displayed there turned gray, and the three words "surviving" next to it turned "dead".
At this moment, Long Aomin and him have searched quite a lot of rooms, but they have not found anything substantial. Except for the traps where the floor suddenly collapsed several times and the ground was covered with spikes, it was No clues, no rewards.
"If the two of us are also acting separately, then the few dangers we have just encountered may be fatal." Long Aomin replied, and then said again: "I don't know if the crazy brother acting alone will also be dangerous. "
"Brother Jue... don't worry about it. Since he proposed to act separately, he must have considered the risk." Wang Tanzhi said, "By the way, I just watched it when I was idle in the landing space. A little bit of game description, if a player dies with plot items on his body, the items will be randomly brushed near a certain teammate after his death."
Long Aomin has experienced more team scripts, and has more experience than him, he replied: "Well, I know, we will look for it now."
The two immediately rummaged around, but they didn’t find the letter, but they found another verse from the ghost palace on the floor under a pile of debris:
[Visitors are in the joyous valley,
can be seen through two bright windows:
elves dance with music,
and the rhythm of Shiqincong,
surround the king’s throne,
"Sense" Your Majesty,
is luxurious and solemn,
The king of a country is extraordinary. 】
