"Being scared is better than losing your life. It's not wrong for young people to want to take risks, but sometimes it's not good to lose your life because of taking risks."
The old man's words were a bit cryptic, but his gaze remained fixed on Sister Bai's right. And on Sister Bai's right was Xiao Zhen!
At that moment, Xiao Zhen also noticed the old man's gaze and couldn't help but move closer to Sister Bai and say, "Brother Bai, this old man seems to have noticed me."
Sister Bai frowned, her gaze deep as she looked at the old man. But the moment their eyes met, the old man grinned and said, "Young man, it seems I've misjudged you. You brought a claw to this place? This old man is really getting senile!"
It seems this old man really did see Xiao Zhen!
Although Sister Bai appeared calm on the surface, she was inwardly shocked. Could this old man be one of them? Only Qian Xiaohao stared at Sister Bai in astonishment and asked, "What does he mean?"
Sister Bai smiled and said, "It's nothing, the old man was just joking with us. Alright, it's getting late, you should get some rest. We'll go for a walk ahead and then head back."
The old man immediately sighed and said, "Fine, since I can't persuade you, then let you go! But the people inside need to be careful!"
This old man gave Sister Bai a very mysterious feeling, especially what did he mean by "be careful of the people inside"? Shouldn't he have told her to be careful of the claws inside?
Sister Bai didn't understand what the old man was saying, so she continued walking. After walking less than a hundred meters, they stopped.
Sister Bai turned her phone camera around again, pointing it at herself, and said, "Friends, now we're getting serious. Let's talk about this haunted house, 2442! You probably all sensed something was off here. Before we arrived, all the other buildings were dark. But this building had one light on. I don't know what's inside. Maybe it holds what we want to see, maybe it holds something we... want to see even more. Now I'm opening the door and going in!"
His voice, as if enhanced, seemed to captivate the listener. Sister Bai pushed open the door. The inside wasn't pitch black; two candles were lit at the front. In front of the candles stood a statue of a deity. But the statue had a ferocious face and exuded an evil aura. Sister Bai couldn't recognize which god or Buddha it was from legend!
Xiao Zhen clung tightly to Sister Bai's arm, her eyes filled with fear as she said, "Sister Bai, I'm so scared! The evil energy in here is so strong!"
Sister Bai naturally noticed it too; didn't she see that Qian Xiaohao's face had turned rather pale?
He gently hugged Xiao Zhen and comforted her with a smile, "Don't be afraid, I'm here." Xiao Zhen nodded, while Qian Xiaohao was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said, "Thank you."
Sister Bai didn't feel embarrassed at all and obediently hummed in agreement. Even Xiao Zhen, who was very scared, couldn't help but laugh and then tugged Sister Bai's ear.
However, Sister Bai didn't keep joking around. After giving the statue a close-up, she took out the Divine Compass.
The compass needle began to spin wildly, and for several seconds it didn't stop. When it finally stopped and pointed at the stairs, it suddenly pointed at a storage room on the first floor! Then, the compass needle pointed back at the stairs, and then repeatedly pointed at the storage room.
Qian Xiaohao had also filmed documentaries before, so he naturally knew the function of a compass. When he saw the compass in Sister Bai's hand spinning so strangely, he couldn't help but swallow hard and ask, "Sister Bai, is something wrong?"
Sister Bai glanced upstairs, then at the storage room, and said with a smile, "It's nothing. Let's go see what's in that storage room first. Xiao Hao, you'd better stick close to me. Oh, and by the way, stick this talisman on your head!"
As she spoke, Sister Bai handed Qian Xiaohao a Soul-Splitting Talisman. Qian Xiaohao was an atheist, but things were constantly challenging his mental fortitude. Regardless of whether the talisman was useful or not, at least it would give him some peace of mind.
After affixing the talisman, the two of them walked slowly towards the storage room, which was about ten meters away. They walked very slowly, but just then, the sound of footsteps could be heard coming from the stairs.
"Thump...thump...thump...!"

"Thump...thump...thump!"
The sound of each footstep is like the fingers plucking the strings of a musical instrument; with each pluck, one's heart trembles.
Qian Xiaohao stopped, Xiao Zhen stopped, and Sister Bai's gaze went straight to the stairs!
Instinctively, Sister Bai pulled Qian Xiaohao and Xiao Zhen behind her. Qian Xiaohao had only just started working for her, and Xiao Zhen was just a woman. Even with ten years of experience, Sister Bai was still worried.
The footsteps came from the second floor downstairs, and soon a long shadow appeared on the wall. When Sister Bai saw the shadow, she was stunned.
Only the living can have shadows, right?
"It has claws...it has claws!"
Upon hearing this voice, both Sister Bai and Qian Xiaohao rolled their eyes. The voice was all too familiar; wasn't it the same crazy woman they had just encountered?
Bai Jie felt like a million alpacas were stampeding through her mind. She couldn't understand how this crazy woman, who was clearly behind them, had managed to get into the building faster than them. Perhaps she had some shortcut that they didn't know about.
After the madwoman came down, Sister Bai stepped forward and said, "Big sister, you should leave this place immediately. This is not a place for you!"
