Chapter 281: Midnight Haunted House 69
"Su Qingyun, you open it." Xu Xinghe said to Su Qingyun.
Su Qingyun sighed, walked over and opened the wardrobe door.
A long object fell out of the closet, scaring Su Qingyun.
Ye Jian and Xu Xinghe hurried over to see if they had won their bet.
What fell down was a human-shaped puppet.
Ye Jian and Xu Xinghe were both a little disappointed.
Su Qingyun became interested. She went over and kicked the human-shaped puppet with her foot, and said to Xu Xinghe, "Don't be discouraged. There might be a ghost inside this human-shaped puppet."
As she spoke, she pulled out a dagger from her waist and stabbed the humanoid puppet's chest with a clean and neat move.
Ye Jian was amazed at the side, "Captain Su is indeed a heroine. With this method, she can kill someone with one strike."
As he spoke, Su Qingyun used both hands to rip the belly of the humanoid doll open.
A large amount of cotton wool was vomited out from the stomach, without any trace of ghosts.
Su Qingyun drew out the dagger and shrugged at Ye Jian and Xu Xinghe, "Nothing. You neither lost nor won."
"Wait a minute." Ye Jian bent down, reached into the belly of the cut open human-shaped doll, and took something out.
It's a human rib.
Ye Jian brought the ribs in front of Su Qingyun and Xu Xinghe, and said proudly, "It seems like I won."
"But this is a bone, not a corpse. If you win, you only win by 0.1."
Ye Jian knocked Su Qingyun's head with his ribs, "Su Qingyun, you are too protective of Xu Xinghe. They are all your teammates. There is no need to favor one over the other."
"Because you made the bet, I will naturally stand on Xu Xinghe's side when dealing with a gambler like you. This way, you can quit this bad habit."
"So it's for my own good." Ye Jian was instantly elated. "I was saying, what's our relationship? We're a perfect couple, and we're both Chun Yuan."
Pure Yuan?
Still CP?
Maybe because the haunted house was of a low level and there was no pressure, Ye Jian started to do nothing.
Su Qingyun pushed Ye Jian's hand away from his ribs, "Don't wave this around in front of me, it's creepy."
Just as Su Qingyun pushed Ye Jian away with his ribs, a man's long sigh came from the closet.
This long sigh was filled with some pain, like someone's groan before death.
The three of them quickly turned around and looked at the wardrobe.
The closet door closed again at some point.
Su Qingyun walked over and opened the wardrobe door again. This time she pulled it very gently, and the hinges made a creaking sound, which was particularly harsh in the quiet night.
After the wardrobe door was opened, there should have been nothing inside, because although a human-shaped doll fell out when Su Qingyun opened the door just now, she also saw that there was nothing else in the wardrobe.
But this time, the closet was full of clothes. Su Qingyun looked back through the gaps between the clothes. Her heart suddenly sank and she took a step back.
There was a shadow behind the clothes, curled up in the corner, not belonging to any fold of fabric at all.
Ye Jian and Xu Xinghe hurried over to stop Su Qingyun behind them, and their eyes also looked through the gaps in her clothes towards the shadow behind her.
The shadow has an outline, like a paper figure that has been soaked in water, with gray and rough edges.
Could this be the original appearance of the wooden puppet that just fell out?
Su Qingyun told Ye Jian and Xu Xinghe about her thoughts.
"You mean like Qingshui Hutong, time goes back?"
Su Qingyun nodded. She pointed at the humanoid shadow behind the two men and said, "Although it has no facial features, the two black holes on its face seem to be looking at us. It's very similar to the humanoid puppet on the ground."
Ye Jian looked at the shadow in the closet and then at the human-shaped doll on the ground. Finally, he stepped forward and took out all the clothes in the closet.
The man's voice sounded again, this time it sounded like a howl.
Then the three people saw the shadow in the corner of the closet slowly turn into a human shape, a corpse.
A skinny corpse, half sitting in the closet, head tilted.
It was wearing an extremely loose robe, which was stained with blood and its original color could no longer be seen.
The man's skinny arms hung down from his faded long sleeves, his fingertips almost touching the floor, and dark brown stains were embedded in the cracks of his nails, which were dried blood.
Ye Jian was about to go over again, but Su Qingyun held him tightly. She held her breath and didn't even dare to move her eyes, for fear of disturbing it, because she saw the corpse moving.
Sure enough, a moment later, the corpse made of shadows slowly raised its head, and cold air seeped out of its black hole-like "eyes". It slowly crawled out through the gap in the wardrobe.
The air was filled with a damp, moldy smell, as well as the smell of blood emanating from it. Su Qingyun suddenly felt her breathing become difficult, and she began to gasp for breath.
"Help! Help! Me!" The corpse stretched out its hand towards Su Qingyun, then bent its five fingers and slowly dropped them down.
"Save you?" Ye Jian said cynically. He suddenly squatted down and looked at the corpse at eye level. "Why should I save you? Who are you?"
"Shang~Qiu~Ping." The corpse spoke very clearly.
"So you're the owner of this nightclub." Ye Jian's voice became more lively, and he even leaned over to glance at the other person, which made both Su Qingyun and Xu Xinghe worry for him.
This person never plays by the rules.
But no matter what, this is a haunted house, and the three of them are in a strange world.
"Ye Jian." Su Qingyun went to pull him again. She wanted him to be serious.
Xu Xinghe, however, heard the question in Ye Jian's words and asked, "How do you know he is the owner of this dance hall?"
"Because there's a sign at the gate that says Boss Shangqiu Ping."
ah?
Su Qingyun and Xu Xinghe looked at each other. They didn't notice the sign next to them when they came in.
Ye Jian is indeed Ye Jian. He looks rough, but he is actually very delicate.
Ye Jian continued to talk to the corpse. He called out, "Boss Shang, I have something to ask you."
The corpse looked at him, as if waiting for him to speak.
"Where are the drinks usually stored in your dance hall?"
Su Qingyun and Xu Xinghe, "..."
The corpse did not answer Ye Jian.
Ye Jian seemed a little angry. He reached out and grabbed the corpse's neck, then dragged it out of the closet very easily.
This shocking action frightened Xu Xinghe so much that he quickly protected Su Qingyun and dodged.
But what was unexpected was that after the corpse was dragged out, it turned into a human-shaped puppet.
Ye Jian threw it together with the previous one, and then called Xu Xinghe to collect it in a garbage bag.
"What's going on?" Su Qingyun asked.
"We have found the mission. We need to find Shangqiu Ping in this dance hall."
Su Qingyun suddenly realized.
Shangqiu Ping is the vengeful spirit that this nightclub wants to clear out.
