Bai Ningning remained calm, pretending not to see anything, stood up, opened the door and went downstairs. She walked like a zombie and her eyes were unfocused.
The ghost didn't seem to realize that Bai Ningning could see it. It circled around Bai Ningning with a grin, as if it was looking at its food.
"I'll eat you in the dead of night. Wouldn't it taste better if you had a nightmare?"
It followed Bai Ningning downstairs. There were only two stupid humans and a disgusting peach blossom demon in the living room. There was nothing to be afraid of.
The twins have found the clue, but they can't decipher the correct code for the time being. Just as they are getting worried, they suddenly see Bai Ningning, who is almost in a zombie state, and they are both startled.
Bai Ningning seemed not to see them and walked straight towards the door.
——It can't even be called walking, she is just moving.
Cheng Annan frowned: "What's wrong with her? She came out in the middle of the night to scare people?"
There were no more little ghosts on them, and no ghost could be seen following Bai Ningning.
[I'm dying of laughter! Who else says Ningning's acting is bad?]
[It’s so real, I almost believed it]
[She deliberately lured the ghost to help her act out the drama in order to gain the Peach Blossom Evil's trust]
Geng Yiyi was really shocked when she saw the ghost behind Bai Ningning. She only knew that the two "metaphysics masters" were losers, but she didn't expect them to be so useless. A ghost actually appeared in the castle, and the two "masters" didn't react at all.
Bai Ningning was wearing pajamas, most likely because she took off the amulet when she was taking a shower - it was obvious now that she was being controlled by a ghost.
"Ningning?"
Geng Yiyi walked over, patted her shoulder, and calmly pushed the ghost away. But to those who didn't know, it seemed as if she was just leaning sideways in front of Bai Ningning, trying to catch her gaze.
Bai Ningning seemed to wake up in an instant. Her hand was about to touch the door handle, but it was raised in the air, neither moving forward nor backward. She was a little confused: "Why am I here?"
The ghost was even more confused than her - it just wanted to see where Bai Ningning was going and what she was doing, so why was it driven out by this damn Peach Blossom Evil?
And why was there a Heavenly Master waiting outside for the ghost? When did the Heavenly Master and the ghost collude to sting the law?
"Master, let me explain. I didn't do anything to that girl—"
Before this guy could finish his cunning words, Zhuo Yang smiled and took him into the wooden sign.
Others were confused: "What's wrong, Master?"
Zhuo Yang: "It's okay, remember to cut this part."
Inside the house, Geng Yiyi avoided talking about the ghost and said with a smile, "I thought you came downstairs specifically to help us decipher the code."
Bai Ningning was stunned for a moment: "Hasn't it been untied yet? I can help if you need it - I'm doing this for Sister Yiyi's sake."
Cheng Annan frowned: "Why do you care about her? We can solve it."
Geng Yiyi looked down on them both: "You've been tossing and turning all night, have you untied it yet?"
When Bai Ningning heard this, she immediately warned herself: "Then I might not..."
Geng Yiyi took the clue card from the twins and handed it to Bai Ningning: "Try it."
"What else? Don't hide it."
Geng Yiyi's attitude towards the twins was obviously much more aggressive, unlike the gentle and warm attitude towards Bai Ningning.
She took out two more clue cards from the reluctant twins and handed them to Bai Ningning: "Actually, I looked for several clue cards overnight, but the passwords were all wrong."
"So many..." Bai Ningning quickly read a clue card and pushed it aside. "This is from the basement. The answer is obviously negative."
Cheng Anbei subconsciously retorted: "Why is it a negative number? It has three answers!"
Bai Ningning: "One is 1, one has a square root, and the other is a negative number. I haven't calculated it carefully, but I think the negative number is the clue. Have you calculated it? Can the root be thorough?"
Geng Yiyi: "They just tried for a long time and thought it was the third floor, so they started from the third digit."
Bai Ningning was surprised: "There's a calculator?"
Geng Yiyi: "No, just a hard calculation."
Bai Ningning: "...That's really courageous."
Geng Yiyi complained, "And they just figured it out and tried it out, and it's not right."
Bai Ningning was curious: "Do you start counting from the third digit or the third digit after the decimal point?"
Geng Yiyi: "I tried everything, but none of them worked."
Bai Ningning: “…”
I didn’t know how to comment on it for a moment.
If you say they are smart, their thinking is completely wrong; but if you say they are not smart, they managed to calculate the square root to six decimal places.
[Ningning's expression is exactly the same as our math teacher's]
"You're the worst class I've ever taught!" (Pointing)
[For a time problem like this, most people wouldn't react that quickly...]
[But in terms of college entrance examination scores and academic qualifications, the twins and Ningning are of the same standard (although the twins are a bit of a cheater)]
[You don’t understand, there is a gap between perfect scores, and there is a huge gap between a top student and a genius student.]
The topic of discussion in the barrage now was the second clue card that Bai Ningning had seen, which contained all the time nodes written on it.
"9:30-9:30-9:48"
3:30-9:00
…
Before Bai Ningning finished reading, she was sure it was this one and said, "That's it. Isn't the answer obvious?"
【"obvious"】
Redefine Obvious
[Vision Math Teacher: The answer is clearly written on the surface, why can't you see it? ]
Geng Yiyi leaned over to take a look. "Is this it? They said they couldn't understand it. They tried following the numbers for a long time but to no avail."
The twins were angry but dared not say anything about Geng Yiyi's exposure of her shortcomings, and sat quietly aside.
Bai Ningning: "Look, 9:30-9:30 is very unreasonable, so there must be something wrong. If you look closely, you will find that this is a graph problem. There are four rows in total, and each row corresponds to a number."
Geng Yiyi was still confused: "Explain it more clearly."
Bai Ningning patiently explained: "This time point corresponds to the clock. The minute hand and second hand at that time can be spelled out into a pixel number. For example, the first row is spelled into 3, and the second row is 0... Anyway, it's very simple if you know the method. The password is 3094. Go ahead."
Geng Yiyi urged the twins: "Hurry up and try the password."
She turned to Bai Ningning and whispered softly, "Where's the other card?"
Bai Ningning put the two undeciphered cards together and said, "I don't know. Let's look at it together tomorrow morning. Let's put it aside today and go to bed early."
Geng Yiyi smiled sweetly: "Okay, good night, thank you, baby."
After Bai Ningning climbed a few steps, she suddenly remembered that the refrigerator was locked and asked, "Have you eaten dinner?"
Geng Yiyi waved her hand: "No more eating, they've already made me angry enough."
Just as Bai Ningning was about to speak up, Geng Yiyi interrupted her and said, "Wear the amulet that the master gave you. Keep it with you even when you take a shower next time. Keep it out of reach of water and keep it within your sight so you can reach it at any time."
"Okay, got it."
Bai Ningning nodded confusedly.
She didn't take off the amulet because she was taking a bath, but because she was going to see the ghost mother and daughter, so she put the amulet farther away.
At eight o'clock the next morning, Gu Bozhi went downstairs yawning. Seeing that there was no one in the living room, he counted the ingredients in the refrigerator again.
There wasn't much food, and the seven of them would have to make do for three days.
Although these ingredients are more than enough if Geng Yiyi and the twins are not counted, he is too soft-hearted to leave them alone.
He found a pen and a notebook and designed a recipe to pair these dishes together.
After writing for a while, Bai Ningning came up from the basement and greeted him casually: "Are you awake?"
She had no makeup on and her hair was casually tied into a ponytail, looking very fresh.
She got up very early and was already in the living room around seven o'clock.
Gu Bozhi was startled: "I thought I was the first one to wake up! When did you wake up? Where did you come from..."
Bai Ningning: "Six thirty, I'm used to that schedule."
She took a sip of water before continuing to explain, "I helped to decipher the clues that Sister Yiyi and the others found last night. There was a card in the basement, and I woke up early so I went down to take a look."
Gu Bozhi asked, "What's down there?"
Bai Ningning: "I don't know. There was no light. I was timid and I stood at the door for a long time but didn't dare to go down."
Gu Bozhi: “?”
He glanced at the time: "It's almost nine o'clock!"
Bai Ningning sighed: "Yeah, it's almost nine o'clock, why haven't they gotten up yet?"
Gu Bozhi waved his hands repeatedly: "No, I mean it's almost nine o'clock. How long have you been standing at the basement door?"
Bai Ningning: "Oh, that's not bad. There's also a clue card in the storage room. I took a look and inside... emmm..."
Bai Ningning thought for a long time, but couldn't think of a suitable adjective, so she simply said, "I'll take you there and you'll know. It's a bit weird and eerie, so be prepared."
Gu Bozhi's heart was pounding, and he was mentally prepared to see a very horrifying scene, but the moment the door of the storage room opened, he was still speechless.
It seems that the owner of this castle might have been a shaman in the past. There are all kinds of religious items displayed here, which looks creepy at first glance.
But what is outrageous is that there is a Western magic circle with a hexagram as the basis painted on the ground, and there are colorful graffiti of English letters on the wall.
Gu Bozhi breathed a sigh of relief: "I thought there was something terrifying."
Bai Ningning touched her chin and silently took a half step back: "Let me think, if you go in and touch that pillar, it should trigger the mechanism."
Hearing how knowledgeable she seemed, Gu Bozhi thought she had triggered the mechanism. He bravely stepped forward and touched the pillar. Sure enough, the mechanism was triggered, and a wall slowly turned to the side - and a figure vaguely emerged.
Bai Ningning and Gu Bozhi were both terrified. They screamed in terror and turned around and ran away.
The five people sleeping upstairs were all awakened.
Chu Xisen was stunned on the bed for two seconds, then remembered that he was participating in a variety show and brought a coward who was suspected to be his own sister.
He didn't even bother to change his clothes or manage his image. He jumped out of bed with one hand and rushed downstairs to see what was going on.
But the door of the storage room happened to face the stairs, and he was caught off guard by seeing a zombie man wearing Qing Dynasty official uniform with an axe on his head - it looked like the axe had gone deep into his head, and his head was probably almost split in half.
Chu Xisen had just woken up and was in a daze. When he suddenly saw this, his feet slipped and he slid down the stairs towards the zombie.
Chu Xisen felt a burning pain on his butt from the fall, but he didn't dare to move, for fear that the zombie would suddenly move.
I have to say that Chinese horror is the scariest.
Bai Ningning heard the noise and hurried over to see what was going on.
Gu Bozhi was terrified, but he didn't dare stay alone and was worried that something might happen to Ningning. His lips trembled with fear, but he still insisted on following her.
Bai Ningning saw Chu Xisen staring at the zombie on the ground and asked, "Are you okay?"
"It hurts so much when I fall, hurry up and pull me up."
Chu Xisen glanced at her, then quickly continued to stare at the zombie, fearing that it would suddenly jump.
Bai Ningning heard that his voice was quite energetic, and knew that he was fine, so she ran towards the living room and said, "Wait a minute, just stay still, I'll get a camera to take some pictures."
Chu Xisen: “?”
Bai Ningning was ready to take pictures of him from all angles, but the moment Chu Xisen saw the SLR camera, his muscle memory was triggered. He immediately started posing, and even his expression became handsome.
"...Forget it, let's get up."
Bai Ningning couldn't take any interesting photos, so she and Gu Bozhi worked together to pull him up.
Bai Ningning asked: "What's in there?"
When she was taking pictures, she didn't dare to look inside the storage room. Whenever she wanted to take pictures of the interior of the storage room, she would close her eyes.
Gu Bozhi was surprised: "I thought you knew! Didn't you tell me the mechanism?"
Bai Ningning: "The mechanism is actually quite obvious. I knew it was there, but I didn't dare to move it."
Chu Xisen waved his hand: "Chinese horror, don't watch it, you will definitely have nightmares when you go back."
He was wearing thin summer pajamas, and his exposed calves were scratched and had a large red patch.
Bai Ningning found disinfectant and plaster from the medicine box and gave them to Gu Bozhi: "Go to the bathroom and help him apply the medicine. The injury on his leg is pretty serious."
Chu Xisen glanced back at the miserable state of his hind legs, then realized his injustice and cried out louder, "I'm injured like this, and your first reaction is to take a picture?!"
Bai Ningning showed him the camera: "Actually, the results are pretty good."
Chu Xisen was fooled at once: "It's really okay, I forgive you."
Gu Bozhi: “?”
Are these two people really not siblings?
The program crew thought this segment was suitable as a warm-up clip, so they edited it in advance and blurred the content in the storage room, leaving only the content of Bai Ningning screaming, Chu Xisen immediately running downstairs to find his sister but slipping and falling, and then the brother and sister quarreling with each other.
This segment was named "Me and My Unfair Brother" by a talented employee who wishes to remain anonymous.
Chu Xisen's fans felt a little distressed for half a second, and then burst into inhumane laughter.
One fan even said: "As long as the face is not hit, it's no big deal. My idol is of good quality and can withstand falls."
