The scene in front of me overlapped with the first scene of the fifth episode, without a single mistake.

Once again, the comic book content became reality.

The axe embedded in the door was pulled out and chopped at the wooden door again. Sharp wooden spikes flew everywhere. The loud "bang bang" sound made the hearts of those present tighten and the veins on their foreheads throb.

Shi Xi said to Zhang Qingyu in his heart: "You hide first."

Zhang Qingyu nodded and hid himself.

The rickety wooden door was hacked open, creaked open, and leaned against the wall.

Seeing the butler dragging the axe, everyone held their breath.

Shi Xi raised the flashlight, and the cold white beam fell on the butler's face. He squinted his eyes and did not dodge. His sinister and terrifying face was completely exposed in the light. The ghostly butler had the same features as in the comics, with steel-like fangs interlaced and glowing with a cold light. This was an effect that even special effects makeup could not produce.

Standing before them was a real evil ghost.

After the evil ghost adjusted to the light, it opened its eyes, and its pupils shrank to the size of sesame seeds. Its cold gaze swept over everyone, finally stopping on Shi Xi and Lu Xiu.

Being stared at by such a pair of eyes, Lu Xiu broke out in a cold sweat: "His target is me and Xiao Shi, you two should run!"

After saying this, he widened his eyes in shock. This sentence was exactly the same as the line in the comic! He couldn't even tell whether he was being controlled by the cartoonist or was simply speaking his mind.

"I can't accept leaving you behind and running away, even if I survive!" Ji Mingxu said, picking up the stone inkstone on the table. The cold touch made him shudder. He suddenly thought: "Damn it, why did I pick up this stone inkstone!"

In the comics, his corresponding character also picked up the stone inkstone and smashed it on the butler's forehead.

"I can't control my body!" Zhang Mingxiu had a sad face and stiffly picked up the bamboo basket beside the desk, like a puppet being manipulated.

The butler sneered and dragged the axe inside. The sharp blade slid across the tiles, making a hair-raising sound.

Everyone in the room became the cartoonist's puppets. They could not control their own bodies and were forced to restore the plot of the comics, even Shi Xi was no exception.

What is more terrifying than the unknown is the known tragedy. They all know that if this continues, blood will be shed soon.

Lu Xiu looked at Shi Xi, and his pounding heart gradually calmed down. He thought, Shi Xi is always different, such a person will never be controlled by the cartoonist, maybe he can still be saved.

"Bang!" The stone inkstone thrown by Ji Mingxu hit the housekeeper on the forehead and immediately broke into several pieces and fell to the ground.

The butler rolled his eyes and stared at Ji Mingxu.

Ji Mingxu laughed awkwardly: "Brother, I didn't want to hit you, it was the cartoonist who asked me to hit you, you have to settle this account with her!"

The butler frowned, as if thinking about his words.

While the housekeeper was distracted, Shi Xi called out to Zhang Qingyu in his heart: "Junior Brother, do it!"

Zhang Qingyu, who had been lying in ambush in advance, suddenly appeared behind the butler and snatched the axe from his hand when he was not prepared!

The butler cried out in surprise and turned around to see Zhang Qingyu raising his axe, ready to chop at the butler!

Shi Xi suddenly thought of a possibility, and his heart skipped a beat: "Don't cut his body! Just entangle him!"

Zhang Qingyu responded, and the axe blade deflected, scraping the butler's shoulder and slicing down, tearing the suit jacket open, revealing a piece of pale skin.

The others couldn't see Zhang Qingyu, so they all thought that Shi Xi was controlling the axe to fight with the butler.

From this point on, the direction of reality is out of the control of the comics, the power that controls them disappears, and they regain their freedom.

Shi Xi shook her wrists, picking up the comic draft on the table. She originally wanted to burn the manuscript, but then she changed her mind and realized that the consequences of burning the manuscript would be unpredictable.

She quickly unscrewed the ink bottle, picked up a brush from the pen holder, dipped it in ink, and drew a talisman on the manuscript paper.

The talisman was completed, emitting a bright light, and Shi Xi felt an unprecedented strong sense of power from the talisman.

The eerie aura in the study was driven away by the faint light of the talisman, and the lights in the room came on again. She clearly saw that the ghost butler's body turned into gray mist and disappeared.

An antique lighter and a car key fell to the ground with a thud.

This change happened so quickly that others were unable to react.

Ji Mingxu pressed his weak knees, a little bit unbelieving: "Are we... saved?"

"We're saved for now." Shi Xi picked up the car keys and put them in his bag, then asked Zhang Qingyu to destroy the housekeeper's lighter.

After the lighter was crushed into ashes, another "butler" appeared out of thin air where the ghost butler disappeared, and they were exactly the same in terms of body shape and appearance!

Everyone's heart was about to jump out of their chest, but Shi Xi was the only one who looked calm.

Ji Mingxu felt like he was about to collapse: "Fuck, what's going on? Has the housekeeper 'resurrected' again?"

The "housekeeper" raised his head. Although his face was pale, his expression was not scary. Only his eyes were red and he looked like he was about to cry.

Lu Xiu pursed his lips and said, "He doesn't look like a ghost. If you look closely, his facial features are a little different from the disappeared ghost butler."

The "housekeeper" waved his hands in panic and cried, "I'm not a ghost, I'm an NPC!"

Lu Xiu noticed that the sleeve of the housekeeper NPC was torn, which was the same as the place where the ghost housekeeper was cut by the axe! A chill climbed up the back of his head, and he didn't dare to think about what would happen to the housekeeper NPC if Shi Xi didn't call a stop at that time.

In such an emergency situation, Shi Xi could actually foresee this.

Shi Xi was about to ask about the NPC's experience when a burst of electrical noise came from her earphones. She heard the chief director's anxious voice: "Can you hear me? Are you all right? Is anyone injured?"

"I'm Xiaoshi, I can hear you." This short-lived safety didn't know how long it would last, so Shi Xi quickly asked him, "Director, where did you see the comic "Cliff Banquet"? Is the story of the cartoonist Chu Die true or false? How much do you know?"

"The planner accidentally discovered this comic on a comic platform. Chu Die's creation story is true, but she died of illness during the serialization of the comic, so the comic has no ending." The chief director said quickly: "In fact, Chu Die and her comics are not famous, but the planner thinks that she draws very well and should be seen by more people...so we have this variety show."

After saying that, the chief director took a deep breath and said, "Xiaoxiao, are the strange events happening now related to the cartoonist? Is she, is she really in the villa?"

Shi Xi sneered: "She is here, and she is not satisfied with the ending you planned. The ending she wants is for all six of us to die here."

The director's voice was shaking. "We really didn't expect things to turn out like this... In fact, I don't even know what's going on right now... After you went up to the rooftop, our connection with you suddenly went down, and the images on the surveillance screen were intermittent. There's no signal at all."

"If I'm not mistaken, the production team recreated the plot at the comics location, so there was a special intersection between the real world and the comics world. The three evil spirits in the comics and the NPCs who played them in the real world exchanged worlds."

Shi Xi said: "In the comics, the soul of the evil ghost is attached to the lighter. As long as the lighter is destroyed, the evil ghost can be 'killed'. I destroyed the ghost butler's lighter and replaced the NPC who played the butler."

"So," Director Song pondered for a moment, "the ghost brother and sister are still hiding in the villa, and they may not realize that this is the real world."

"Cartoonists can control everyone who has anything to do with the comics, including the characters and the people who play them, by revising the manuscripts," Lu Xiu analyzed. "The behind-the-scenes staff of the program group has nothing to do with the comics, so they are safe."

"That's right, so you have to stay calm now. The connection between us could be severed at any time."

After Shi Xi finished saying this, there was no sound in the headset and the light above his head started flashing again.

"You're so quick." Shi Xi scoffed, patted the butler NPC's arm, and said softly, "The cartoonist is already taking action. I have a plan, and I'm going to put you in a difficult position."

The butler NPC didn't know what she was going to do, but his intuition told him that only by listening to her could he leave this damn place, so he nodded.

Shi Xi raised his chin towards Zhang Qingyu and asked him to possess the NPC.

Zhang Qingyu got into the NPC's body, his uncontrolled body shook, and soon stood firm again. The "housekeeper" raised his eyes, and his dark pupils turned into a clear emerald color.

Seeing his eyes, the others were startled.

Lu Xiu asked: "Xiao Shi, what did you do?"

"I let my friend possess the body of an NPC. You don't have to be afraid. He's a good ghost," Shi Xi explained, and reminded Zhang Qingyu: "Eyes."

Zhang Qingyu closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, they had returned to their normal black color: "Junior Sister, what do you want me to do?"

"I'll let you guest star as the ghost butler," Shi Xi curled his lips, "If the cartoonist wants to control the direction of the story, he must draw the comics first. I guess she has already revised the sixth chapter. The plot is nothing more than letting the other two ghosts come to hunt me down. The ghost siblings and the cartoonist have information gaps. They don't know that the ghost butler has disappeared. You will play the butler later."

Ji Mingxu noticed that the phone in his pocket was lighting up. He took it out and looked at it, his face changed: "Hour, the new sixth chapter has appeared."

He turned the screen to face Shi Xi. On it were four hideous characters with messy lines like a bunch of weeds - Kill the heroine!

"You're right," Director Song said, "As long as we can get out of control, it will be beneficial for us to know the plot in advance."

Lu Xiu said: "Could it be that cartoonists switch to electronic drawing because they are worried that Xiao will find the original manuscript and use talismans to break the situation?"

"Is that so?" Shi Xi slid the screen and browsed the plot above.

Perhaps due to the rush of time, this chapter is even more sloppy than the previous one, with only rough lines outlining the plot, but the drawings are a bit weird.

At the beginning of the new chapter, a group of dark, indescribable lines crawled into the study, and then many messy lines appeared on the wall. Several passengers were surrounded by these lines, with terrified expressions.

Looking further down, the heroine corresponding to Shi Xi was entangled with dense and tangled threads. At this time, Yun Fan appeared at the door leisurely with a crazy smile on her pretty face.

In the last frame, the heroine was strangled by tangled wires, her eyes wide open in fear.

This scene was even more bizarre than the scene of Lu Xiu’s death. Everyone felt panicked and looked at Shi Xi worriedly.

"You want to kill me like this? That's too hasty," Shi Xi sneered and called Zhang Qingyu, "Pick up the axe and start the show."
