Chapter 201
The total time allowed for thinking about this critical multiple-choice question was five minutes, and only half a minute had passed when Xu Heng finished reviewing the question.
Although this question leaves the player with a lot of time to make a judgment, Xu Heng, who lacks any clues at this moment, has no way of judging the correct answer based on the surface of the question.
The title suggests to the player that there is an extra person in the ear chamber, but in fact, in addition to the three game players, there is only one guiding NPC, Lao Chen, in this house.
Old Chen had already entered the master bedroom before he and Huasan returned to their respective rooms.
In particular, after entering the ear chamber, Xu Heng also carefully checked the room to confirm and affirm that there could be no other person in the room except him.
Therefore, the extra breathing sounds in the room at this moment are most likely the resentful soul of the child who was burned to death in the ear chamber.
Before entering the multiple-choice questions, Xu Heng looked around the room and did not see any ghosts.
In other words, the little ghost is hiding somewhere that guests can't see, such as in the closet or under the bed.
And the breathing sound was so close, as if it was ringing next to his ear. Thinking of this, Xu Heng already had a vague answer in his heart.
Since options A and B are not possible, the only two options left are C and D, which both seem to work.
Option C is especially consistent with Xu Heng's style of doing things. After all, choosing to continue staying in a closed room where one knows there are ghosts is undoubtedly an act of seeking death.
So option C, leaving the room quickly, seems reasonable, but it has a fatal problem.
That is, no one knows whether the male owner of the house will be waiting for him in the lobby after opening the room.
You should know that the seemingly weak heroine in the ghost story was deliberately manipulated by the evil ghost and hacked the hero to death.
Then, as the male owner of this house, will Old Chen also be controlled by evil spirits at night and kill innocent guests staying there?
After careful consideration, the only option left is option D, which seems dangerous but may not actually happen.
Seeing time passing by little by little, Xu Heng gritted his teeth and decided to choose D.
After he made his choice, the red text in front of him quickly disappeared, and the scene returned to the dark and silent ear room.
However, the breathing sound in his ears did not disappear, but became clearer and clearer.
Xu Heng lay on the cold bed, not daring to move, his eyes fixed on the three rag dolls placed on the wardrobe, the corners of their mouths were raised, as if they would burst at any time.
However, the closet door did not suddenly open and the little ghost did not crawl out as he imagined, and it was quiet outside the door.
Nothing unusual happened in the room except for the terrifying breathing sound that continued in my ears.
Just when Xu Heng thought that he could escape danger by pretending to be asleep, he suddenly realized a problem that he had ignored from beginning to end.
Ghosts, do they make the breathing sounds that normal people do?
When he realized this, his face changed immediately. Without thinking, he sat up from the bed and quickly got out of bed.
However, when his feet touched the ground, it was too late.
Old Chen, who was hiding under the bed, grabbed Xu Heng's feet at an unexpected speed and pulled her under the bed with incredible strength.
Xu Heng grabbed the edge of the bed with both hands and tried his best to struggle. Even at this moment, he still did not choose to use props.
It was simply because on the way before entering the house, the three of them unanimously agreed that the right to use the props was more important than the right to use the resurrection card.
If they use up the right to use the props at the beginning, then when they face increasingly difficult levels, they will have to wait for death once the only resurrection cards left are used up.
If that moment really comes, there will be no need to talk big about killing the Night King. They will probably be in a difficult situation and unable to save themselves.
So when Xu Heng realized that he had chosen the wrong option, he forced himself to suppress the urge to move the props to survive.
After struggling until the last second, Xu Heng was dragged under the bed by Lao Chen and saw the horrible smiling face with the corners of the mouth almost split to the back of the ears.
Old Chen leaned over and smiled in his ear and said:
"I got you."
As soon as he finished speaking, the knife in his hand quickly stabbed into Xu Heng's chest.
The pain flashed by and did not last long before Xu Heng's vision went completely dark.
[System prompt: You have died. The resurrection card will be activated in 6 hours. The number of resurrection cards remaining is 2]
[Note: When your teammates successfully pass the password point and enter the next password point, you will be automatically resurrected;
If all your teammates die at this password point, all players will be resurrected immediately.
The next second after Xu Heng died, prompts popped up on Huasan and Yitu’s game panels at the same time.
[Your teammate Xu Heng has died. Please continue the game and get the death code, or successfully escape from the Chen family residence! ]
[Note: When all players at this password point die, everyone will immediately have a chance to revive.]
When Yi Tu saw this hint, he immediately understood the rules of the game in this card game.
The resurrection card cannot revive the dead player immediately, but there is a time effect.
As long as all players are not killed, the remaining players must continue the game.
However, the disadvantage of this rule is that after Xu Heng's death, the difficulty of the game will increase significantly as only he and Hua San are left.
In this way, it is very easy for all members to be killed in the first round, thus being forced to start the second round.
Yitu sat quietly on the edge of the bed and thought for a while. The game separated the three players into different game arrangements and choices.
It is inevitable that the clues and plots obtained by the three of them are different, and now that Xu Heng is dead, it means that he and Hua San have lost some information.
Although he is not sure whether this information is important so far, it is very likely related to the death code.
At the same time, Huasan, who had been sitting at the table and staring at every move in the yard, also realized the problem.
Especially since he and Xu Heng were both in a room inside the lobby, that was to say, one of them must have the clue to the death code.
But the guest room where he was did not appear, so the clue is most likely in Xu Heng's room.
However, after realizing this, Huasan did not feel relieved at all.
On the contrary, his mood became even heavier.
Unable to communicate with Yitu, Huasan could only sit quietly on the stool, waiting for the next death-choice question.
I don’t know how much time has passed. It seemed like an hour of agony, but it also seemed like only a few minutes had passed.
Seeing that the sky outside began to turn slightly blue and white, Huasan knew that dawn was about to come.
In the ghost story, both the hostess and the guests' children died in the fading night.
It seemed to be foreshadowing the same ending they were about to face.
Just when Huasan's patience was about to be exhausted, a faint sobbing sound of a child suddenly sounded in the lobby, very close to the lobby door.
Huasan's body stiffened immediately, his nerves tense to the extreme.
Soon, a burst of light footsteps was heard in the lobby again. By listening to how long the footsteps lasted, one could roughly judge the distance the person had walked.
It was not just three steps from the master bedroom to the door. Lao Chen walked out from the ear room.
Thinking of this, Huasan's heart sank.
Xu Heng was not killed by the resentful child, but by a real evil ghost.
He heard Lao Chen's footsteps gradually approaching, and after a while the sound became a little farther away.
The evil ghost even pretended to make sounds of coaxing a child at the door, and I don't know if it wanted to lure the player out.
At this time, the half-human, half-dog monster male owner of the house also heard the child's sobbing, and struggled to stand up, clearly ready to take action.
On the other side, in the woodshed where Yitu was, the sound of dripping water was heard again from the water tank.
But this time Yitu saw clearly a pair of pale and slender hands reaching in through the small window, followed by a wet head with messy black hair.
He immediately stood up and subconsciously moved closer to the door of the woodshed so that he could quickly escape when the ghost crawled in.
However, the game is not so simple as to just put him in a dangerous place. After a while, an inexplicable sound of metal dragging was heard in the yard.
Yi Tu's heart trembled. Although he guessed that it was most likely the human-like dog, he didn't know the specific situation.
Because the only small window that allowed one to see the courtyard without opening the door was occupied by the tragically dead hostess.
Just as he was thinking about how to deal with the situation, several rows of scarlet fonts appeared in front of him again, and it was another death-choice question.
[That night, after experiencing all kinds of strange phenomena, you realized that this house was not as simple as you imagined, and even realized that Lao Chen was not the male owner of this house.
Not long ago, you learned the tragic news of your companion's death. In addition to being grief-stricken and shocked, you were even more eager to leave this horrible house, but you couldn't find an opportunity.
As the day is about to break, the owners of the house can't wait to show up and say goodbye to the guests. At this time, you decide:
A. Stay in the woodshed temporarily to avoid the monsters outside, and make a decision later.
B. In order to avoid the female ghost, he quickly left the woodshed and rushed to the door to escape.
C. Realizing that his friend was still in the lobby, he decided to rush in.
[Friendly reminder: The options in this death multiple-choice question contain ways to obtain the death code.
Choosing the wrong option will result in the player's death! The number of resurrection cards you have left is: 3.
At the same time, a death choice question also appeared in front of Huasan.
