Chapter 19



◎Dog Program Team◎

With a "creak", Lin Chaojin only heard the sound of someone pushing open the wooden door, and then she was led inside for a while. The man in black who was supporting her withdrew his hand, and there was another "creak", which was the sound of the door closing.

"What's that sound?" Lu Ge felt the man in black who was supporting him withdrew his hand, and soon the room became quiet. This kind of silence was very creepy in the atmosphere of this haunted house.

He couldn't help but swallow his saliva and took a step closer to Lin Chaojin, "Sister, are you still there?"

Lin Chaojin reached out and took off the blindfold. She glanced at him and said, "You can take it off now."

"Oh," Lu Ge took off the blindfold and saw the scene in front of him, "Oh my god." He was so scared that he threw the blindfold to the ground.

Lin Chaojin looked around calmly and walked towards the tall wooden table in the middle of the living room.

"Wait for me." Seeing his sister walking over without any panic, Lu Ge quickly reached out and grabbed her sleeve. The 1.85 meter tall guy now wanted to shrink tightly behind her.

"Is it really that serious?" Lin Chaojin looked back at the person huddled together and curled his lips.

"Very much so." Lu Ge nodded without hesitation, his voice lowered a lot, "What a horrible place this is, it's too creepy."

This was a living room full of ancient style. In the middle stood a high platform with two large red candles lit on it. On the front wall was a large "囍" character with white characters on a red background. Next to it was a couplet that read, "The mandarin ducks in the underworld are blessed with good fortune and luck, and the dragons and phoenixes in the underworld are also auspicious."

The red candle flame flickered, casting a floating black shadow on the couplet.

When Lu Ge saw the couplet, he read the first half silently and then hurriedly moved his eyes downwards without even finishing the second half.

He didn't look closely at the pair of male and female puppets placed on the table. He only remembered that the male puppet had a blood-red smiling face, while the female puppet's mouth was closed, as if it was sewn shut.

Looking around, I saw two wooden tables and chairs placed opposite each other. The table was covered with a thick layer of dust. Red hydrangeas were tied to the chairs. The color was as red as blood, but there were spider webs on them, like the accumulation of time.

Pieces of red silk cloth were hanging down all around, swaying in the windless air.

The room was eerily quiet at this moment. Except for Lin Chaojin and Lu Ge, even the photographer had left. Only the camera with a flashing red light in the corner of the wall was showing.

The camera was turned on only when Lin Chaojin and the others came in and took off their blindfolds. When the screen went black, the audience was still laughing and posting comments on it.

[Hahaha, Director Zhang, is he going to make it so mysterious? What's so scary about a haunted house besides being chased by ghosts?]

[Hurry up, turn on the camera, I want to see the famous scene where Ge Songsong is scared and cries.]

Then, unexpectedly, the camera was turned on, and the scene in the room was completely captured by the camera and shown to the audience.

The originally dense barrage of comments disappeared in an instant, and the screen was so clean that the audience in front of the camera could face the scene more directly.

"Damn you, production crew," Li Yuan was one of the audience. She was originally sitting leisurely on a chair like other audiences, drinking milk tea and watching the variety show with barrage of comments.

Then suddenly I saw the darkness with only candlelight, revealing a strange scene.

With a "bang", the milk tea in her hand fell to the ground in shock. Li Yuan didn't care about her milk tea and put the tablet on the table with a "bang", cursing the program crew.

As if shocked by the scene, she glanced at the bedroom suspiciously, feeling a chill on her back. She quickly picked up the tablet, ran out of the bedroom, and shouted "Mom." She decided to stay next to her mother and watch.

Obviously, the other viewers were also frightened, and the barrage was full of insults.

[I have a mother tongue to give to the production team. My heart was about to burst out, and I even screamed and scared my dog.]

[You are such dogs, the production team! You came out here to die without even giving us any notice. Are you still human? I beg you, please be a human being.]

[Seeing Ge Suangsong like that, I stopped laughing at him. Even a grown man like me was scared to death. I’m most afraid of this kind of Chinese terror.]

[Wow, isn't the young lady afraid?! This woman is so brave! I bow down to you.]

Lin Chaojin walked to the main table and took a look at the pair of puppets. She saw that their birth dates were embroidered on their clothes. The girl's birth date was April 4, the 30th year of the Guangxu reign, at yin hour, and the boy's birth date was August 8, the 21st year of the Guangxu reign of the Qing Dynasty, at yin hour.

There was also a small plate of red lacquer on the table, and underneath the plate was a half-burned piece of yellow paper with something written on it in a flamboyant manner.

Lin Chaojin didn't move the things on the table rashly, and turned around to walk towards the door.

With a "bang", Lu Ge turned around and followed her, but accidentally bumped into the table, and the female puppet doll began to shake because of the table.

[No, oh, no…]

[God, the most taboo thing is to touch things randomly.]

Then the girl doll shook for a while, and with a "bang", its head fell off and rolled on the table. Its eyes looked directly at Lu Ge.

Lu Ge was caught off guard when his eyes met its gaze. He suddenly closed his eyes, hugged his sister's arm, and babbled incoherently, "Namo Amitabha, I didn't mean it, prosperity, democracy, civilization, harmony..."

"Shut up," Lin Chaojin covered his mouth rudely. Outside, voices could be heard faintly from far away, approaching them. Obviously, Lu Ge also heard it and nodded hurriedly.

Lin Chaojin let him go. Lu Ge pointed at the puppet and whispered, "What should we do then?"

Lin Chaojin walked forward, took a piece of red cloth from the chair, rolled up the two dolls, and took the half piece of yellow paper with her, then stuffed it into Lu Ge's arms, "It's already moving, take it."

"No, I don't," Lu Geming shook his head, but he didn't dare to throw away the things in his arms.

"This may be something that can save your life." Lin Chaojin looked at him and said.

"Really." Lu Ge felt scared holding the package and was a little suspicious.

"Yeah." Lin Chaojin responded casually, walked to the door, pulled it hard, only to find that the door was locked from the outside.

But the sounds outside the door were getting closer and closer, obviously coming towards them. "Come here." Lin Chaojin pulled him over to the hanging red cloths. "Shh, don't talk."

"Hmm." Lu Ge nodded.

[Family members, did you hear the sound? I'm scared.]

[Oh my god, there's nowhere to hide. Something's coming. It's coming.]

The voice became clearer and clearer. "Hey, be careful, don't touch it. Come, put it here."

The door creaked open, and a middle-aged woman walked in first. She had a large red flower on her head, her face painted pale, her eyes glazed over, making her lips look even more red. In her right hand was a red handkerchief. "Carry it in."

Four men wearing black gowns embroidered with a big "囍" character, melon-shaped hats, and long braids carried a wooden coffin in and placed it steadily in the middle of the hall.

Then, people came in one after another, carrying red baskets and placing them next to the coffin.

[!!! Director, seriously, this isn't a big deal!]

[Family, I saw something, it was cracked, I was scared, it was getting weirder and weirder, wow, I don’t dare to look anymore.]

[This is a family variety show, right? Right?! Director Zhang, where's the warm and slow variety show you promised me? You're fooling me.]

Then an elderly couple dressed in festive red clothes came in and said to the woman wearing the red flower, "Matchmaker Zhang, have you finished your work? Please don't miss my son's auspicious time."

"Oh, the Li family, I know. I, Matchmaker Zhang, will not ruin my own job. The Liu family has already been arranged." Matchmaker Zhang held a handkerchief and smiled like a flower.

After they finished speaking, they left the room one after another.

"Burp." At this time, Lu Ge suddenly burped.

The voice was so loud in the quiet room that matchmaker Zhang, who was walking behind, suddenly stopped and slowly turned around.

[! ! !]

Lu Ge panicked and covered his mouth with his hands, eyes wide open. He really didn't mean it, and his hands were tightly holding onto Lin Chaojin.

Lin Chaojin frowned and touched something in the corner.
