Perhaps because Ruan Mian's expression was too stunned, Bo Yan couldn't help but chuckle and put his learning into practice, "My only friend, are you okay?"
Ruan Mian thought to himself, I am such a screw-stick dick, but he still managed to manage his expression well, nodding with a stern face, "It's just... it's just that the two of them suddenly disappeared, this routine is so old-fashioned!"
"Is that so?" Bo Yan immediately pretended to be asking for advice humbly. "That's great. I was thinking that I don't come to haunted houses often. Since you are familiar with them, I'll ask Brother Ku to protect me."
Here it comes again, the same sentence.
I have to say, Ruan Mian really benefited from Bo Yan's humble expression and sincere tone.
He also wanted to protect Bo Yan and lead him to kill everyone. It seemed so cool just thinking about it, but the question was, could he protect him?
Although Ruan Mian thought so in his heart, he did not show it on his face. He even raised his hand and patted Bo Yan's shoulder in a mature manner, "Don't worry, I... I will protect you! Let's observe the surrounding environment first."
Bo Yan nodded in agreement, "Okay."
The two looked around. In fact, what they called surroundings were just two walls with a narrow passage in between. They stood in the middle of the passage.
The left wall was blank, with nothing on it.
Ruan Mian breathed a sigh of relief. He slowly turned his head to look at the wall on the right, and the next second, he was caught off guard and saw a bloody mouth with two sharp teeth exposed in it!
Ruan Mian subconsciously jumped up and took a big step back, but the moment he jumped up, he suddenly realized that there was a wall behind him. He couldn't jump away at all and would only hit the wall heavily...
Ruan Mian closed his eyes and prepared himself for a hit on the back, but the expected pain did not come. On the contrary, when he landed, the touch on his back was soft and warm.
Ruan Mian was stunned for a moment. He no longer cared about being afraid and turned around quickly to look. Only then did he discover that Bo Yan had actually put his hands behind his back at the critical moment!
Bo Yan's action was so unexpected to Ruan Mian that he leaned against the wall, or to be more precise, leaned on Bo Yan's hand, staring at Bo Yan in a daze, forgetting to speak for a moment.
"Are you scared?" Bo Yan smiled, then naturally withdrew his hand and asked, "Did it hurt?"
Ruan Mian came back to his senses instantly. He shouted in a bluffing voice: "Who... who is so scared! I was just surprised for a moment, I'm not scared at all!"
"Okay," Bo Yan knew the principle of stroking the hair, "You are so cool, of course you are not afraid, does it hurt?"
Ruan Mian felt comfortable after being stroked. He shook his head and said honestly, "It doesn't hurt."
How could it hurt with Bo Yan's hands cushioning my back?
After answering, Ruan Mian couldn't help but lower her head to look at Bo Yan's hand. Her face was still tense, and she expressed her concern awkwardly, "Does your hand hurt?"
Bo Yan wanted to shake his head, but when he saw the real worry in Ruan Mian's eyes, he frowned slightly and said seriously: "It's okay, it hurts a little."
Ruan Mian suddenly became more nervous. He reached out and grabbed Bo Yan's wrist, holding it in front of his eyes, "Where does it hurt? Let me see."
Bo Yan casually pointed to his wrist bone and said, "Here."
Ruan Mian hurriedly looked at Bo Yan's wrist bone.
Bo Yan's hands are very beautiful, with distinct bones and prominent and sharp wrist bones, like a work of art.
The light inside was not bright, and Ruan Mian could not see clearly whether Bo Yan's wrist bone was red or whether the skin was broken. He asked hesitantly, "It hurts... it hurts a lot? What should I do?"
Ruan Mian looked so serious and really well-behaved that people couldn't help but want to bully him even more.
Therefore, Bo Yan hesitated for less than a second before lowering his head without any psychological burden, looking into Ruan Mian's eyes, and said softly, "It's not that great, just blow it for me."
Ruan Mian: “…………”
He seriously suspected that this person was trying to help him again.
Seeing that Ruan Mian didn't move or say anything, Bo Yan said lightly, "Well..."
He was about to say "Forget it, I'm just kidding", but he only said one word before the rest of the words got stuck in his throat.
Because Ruan Mian suddenly came over and blew lightly three times on his wrist bone seriously.
A warm, tingling touch instantly swept across Bo Yan's wrist.
Bo Yan also vaguely heard Ruan Mian muttering something in a low voice, something like, "Fly away in pain"?
Bo Yan rarely cursed in his heart, damn, how can someone be so cute?
"Okay," Bo Yan closed his eyes, silently repeated "be a human being" three times in his mind, and said in a hoarse voice, "It doesn't hurt anymore."
Ruan Mian paused, and finally let go of Bo Yan's wrist. He then asked him anxiously, "Does it really not hurt?"
Bo Yan lowered his eyes and said "hmm" faintly, "Hurry up and continue looking for clues."
Ruan Mian then remembered the important matter and clapped his hands, "Yes, yes, yes, let's find clues!"
Seeing that his attention was diverted, Bo Yan let out a light breath, and where Ruan Mian couldn't see, he gently stroked the wrist bone of his right hand with his left thumb.
There seemed to be a hint of Ruan Mian's aura still lingering there.
Ruan Mian turned his head towards the right wall again. The bloody mouth was indeed scary, but after seeing it so many times, he became immune to it.
This time, Ruan Mian didn't jump up in fright. He even looked at the wall carefully, and then he found that there was a door embedded in the wall below the bloody mouth.
It's just that the door was deliberately painted completely white, and its bloody mouth was too eye-catching, making the door very inconspicuous.
There were no other clues around. Ruan Mian hesitated for a moment and concluded: "We should go in from here."
"Well," Bo Yan also saw the door. He didn't find any combination lock on it, so he raised his hand and grabbed the door handle. "Let me try to see if I can open it."
As he spoke, he pressed down his wrist, and with two "beeps", the door opened.
Bo Yan tilted his head to look at Ruan Mian, "Can I go in first?"
Ruan Mian wanted to nod, but Ku Ge’s face was important, so he shook his head and took a step forward, “I…I’ll go in first!”
Bo Yan did not argue with him, but walked half a step behind him, with his arms slightly outstretched, almost holding him in his arms, a gesture full of protection.
However, Ruan Mian's entire mind was occupied by the environment in front of him at this moment, and he did not notice Bo Yan's posture.
When they entered the door, they were both stunned.
The space inside is much more open and harmonious than expected...
Inside, there was an empty auditorium with a large stage on the right. The curtains of the stage were drawn to the sides, and everything on the stage was clearly visible.
Therefore, Ruan Mian and Bo Yan clearly saw that the stage was empty and there was nothing on it.
On the left is the auditorium, which is also empty.
There were no ghosts jumping out to scare people, and not even any weird props.
But this so-called "normal" may actually mean "abnormal" in a haunted house.
Ruan Mian took another step forward, not daring to let his guard down. He tilted his head to look at the audience and asked Bo Yan softly, "Should we..."
Ruan Mian suddenly stopped talking halfway and turned his head abruptly to look at the stage on the right.
But the stage was still the same as when I first came in, with nothing on it.
"What's wrong?" Bo Yan also turned his head and looked at the stage.
"You just..." Ruan Mian's eyes were fixed on the stage, without blinking. He subconsciously clenched the hem of his clothes, and his voice was trembling slightly, "Did you feel something on the stage just now?"
He had just caught a glimpse of it out of the corner of his eye when he was talking to Bo Yan, but it was too fast and he couldn't see clearly what it was. When he turned around to look again, it was gone.
"It seems like there is something," Bo Yan thought for a moment and asked, "It's white, right?"
"Yes, yes, yes!" Ruan Mian nodded hurriedly, "It seems I was right!"
"Then let's wait here for a while?" Bo Yan suggested.
Ruan Mian nodded and said "OK", without taking his eyes off the stage from beginning to end.
But after standing there for two seconds, he couldn't help but secretly turn his head and quickly glanced at Bo Yan.
Seeing that Bo Yan was also staring at the stage intently, Ruan Mian hardened his heart and quietly took a small step towards Bo Yan, getting closer to him. He could even feel his body temperature. Ruan Mian breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look at the stage again.
Bo Yan lowered his gaze for a moment, which fell on the two people's arms that were almost touching each other, and the corners of his lips raised slightly.
However, the two stood there for a full two minutes. Not only the stage, but even the entire room was silent, without any movement.
Ruan Mian's eyes were tired from staring. He blinked and was about to speak when Bo Yan spoke first: "Is this... specially set up? If we stare at it, it won't appear."
"It's possible," Ruan Mian cursed crazily in his mind. What kind of rubbish setting is this that specifically manipulates people's mentality? But what he said was, "A haunted house, it's just... it will take advantage of people's unpreparedness and play tricks like this!"
Ruan Mian himself might not know how cute he looked when he had a tense face and a trembling voice but still wanted to say such words.
Bo Yan quickly tilted his head, his Adam's apple slid briefly, and he suppressed his laughter before he agreed with him and said, "Well, you are right."
"Then let's not watch it for now!" Ruan Mian immediately retracted his gaze and looked at Bo Yan, "Let's go to the audience seats first..."
But before the word "席" was completely pronounced, Ruan Mian and Bo Yan quickly turned their heads at the same time and looked at the stage again.
Just now, something definitely flashed by again!
"It's white, for sure!" Ruan Mian saw it a little more clearly this time and couldn't help but exclaim, "It seems to be tall and thin!"
After saying this, Ruan Mian shuddered.
White, thin and tall, isn’t this a fucking ghost?
Bo Yan frowned slightly and added, "It doesn't seem to be pure white, there should be some red."
Red, in this situation, easily reminds people of blood...
Ruan Mian's face turned pale. He opened his mouth and wanted to say something else, but Bo Yan took another step closer and put his hands on his shoulders. His tone was still as calm as before, but at this moment, it sounded inexplicably soothing: "Okay, it's okay. Turn around and look at me. Let's test it again."
Listening to Bo Yan's cold but firm voice, Ruan Mian seemed to be hypnotized. She listened to his words involuntarily, turned around and looked at him.
The moment they looked at each other, something flashed across the stage in their peripheral vision!
Ruan Mian and Bo Yan turned around to look again, but still found nothing.
They turned back and continued testing.
After repeating this three times, they basically confirmed that this was the setting and that it would only appear when they looked to the side. They also roughly confirmed that what appeared was a "female ghost" wearing white clothes stained with blood.
But the appearance of this "female ghost" is not just to scare them.
Choosing to go to the audience or to the stage may trigger something new.
After hesitating for two seconds, Ruan Mian decided to follow his inner curiosity and suggested, "Let's go take a look at the stage first?"
Bo Yan nodded, "I'll listen to you."
The two of them walked side by side to the edge of the stage. With every step, Ruan Mian felt his heartbeat quicken. Suddenly, the words that the big boss had said last night floated into his mind at an inopportune time - if you really meet someone scary, it's okay to hold a friend's hand.
Ruan Mian's brain almost short-circuited at this moment. He couldn't help but lower his head to look at Bo Yan's hand hanging by his side.
His hand was so close that he could touch it with just a slight stretch.
So... do you want to pull it...?
"What are you thinking about?" Bo Yan suddenly reached out and pulled his arm, "You're about to hit the stage."
Ruan Mian suddenly came to his senses and slapped his forehead in annoyance.
I was so shocked! He actually wanted to hold Bo Yan's hand just now!
"nothing!"
Ruan Mian shook his head like a little rattle, and when he looked up he realized that they had unknowingly walked to the edge of the stage.
"According to what we just tested," Bo Yan raised his hand and gently pressed Ruan Mian's shoulder, a soothing gesture, "that... that NPC should always come out from behind this curtain. Can I lift it up and take a look?"
He deliberately used the word NPC to make Ruan Mian clearly realize that they were just playing games and there was nothing to be afraid of.
Ruan Mian calmed down after hearing this. The cool guy mentality that wanted to protect Bo Yan came back. He stepped forward and said, "I'll lift it up!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he opened the curtain on the right side with a "swish".
But there was still nothing behind the curtain. Ruan Mian breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Bo Yan, and walked towards the other side of the curtain together.
This time it was Bo Yan who reached out and lifted the curtain, but there was still nothing behind the curtain.
"It seems that this is not the trigger condition," Bo Yan said his inference, "Then the trigger condition should only be the audience seats."
Ruan Mian said "hmm" in a very arrogant manner, raised his eyebrows, and said to himself as if to encourage himself: "Then go to the audience seats, and trigger it if you want. This cool guy is not afraid of it!"
Bo Yan raised the corner of his lips again and replied, "Okay."
After saying that, the two of them turned around again and slowly walked towards the audience seats.
But after taking only two steps, an extremely sharp female voice suddenly sounded behind him!
Although he was prepared for something to happen if he turned around, when he suddenly heard the voice, Ruan Mian couldn't help but jumped up on the spot.
But this time he didn't even have the chance to regret losing face for the cool guy, because when he jumped into the air, someone grabbed his clothes from behind and pulled him down!
Ruan Mian's scalp felt numb and he wanted to break free but couldn't.
He tilted his head with great effort to look, and saw a pair of skinny hands. At this moment, one of the hands was grabbing his clothes, and the other was grabbing Bo Yan's clothes.
"Since you're here—" the "female ghost" continued to speak in her shrill voice, "don't leave! Dance, look at me dancing! I want to dance!"
Ruan Mian: “?”
He roared in his heart, who the hell wants to see a ghost like you dance!
But my throat seemed to be blocked and I couldn't utter a single word.
It was Bo Yan who reacted first and grasped the only piece of information in this sentence, "Dancing? You want to dance?"
"Yes!" The "ghost girl"'s voice suddenly rose an octave, "Let me dance, I want to dance!"
Bo Yan's eyes quickly swept around, and suddenly, his eyes lit up and his gaze fixed on the left corner.
There, there is a record player.
He ignored the "female ghost" behind him still pulling at his clothes, raised his hand and stretched it over there, and with his excellent arm span, he successfully touched the switch of the record player.
As soon as the record player was turned on, music instantly filled the entire room, and it turned out to be a very beautiful dance song.
At the moment the music sounded, Ruan Mian suddenly felt a force behind him. He hurriedly turned around to look, and sure enough, it was the "female ghost" who let them go.
The "female ghost" had already started dancing to the rhythm of the music, and was spinning as she jumped towards the stage.
To be fair, the "female ghost" danced really well, and her movements could even be called graceful.
But……
But her black hair was disheveled, there was an obvious and horrible scar on the top of her head, two lines of blood and tears hung from under her eyes, her mouth was extremely blood red, just like the bloody mouth outside the door, her white clothes were stained with blood, and she was wearing a pair of red dancing shoes on her feet!
It’s really so thin and scary!
Ruan Mian unconsciously leaned closer to Bo Yan again.
Bo Yan comforted him softly: "Don't be afraid, they are all pretending to be human."
This kind of words had a miraculous effect on Ruan Mian, who immediately got angry and said, "Who... who is scared! How could our cool brother be scared!"
As he was speaking, the "ghost girl" had already jumped onto the stage, and a spotlight was projected down, following her figure.
Ruan Mian had a vague feeling that something was going to happen again.
Sure enough, the next second, the light above the "female ghost's" head suddenly flickered twice, and then suddenly fell down and hit the "female ghost" directly on the head, and the female ghost fell down immediately!
Although he knew it must be a prop, Ruan Mian's body instinctively couldn't help but take a step forward.
Bo Yan reached out and patted him on the back, whispering, "Go and take a look."
Ruan Mian nodded, and walked back to the stage with Bo Yan.
On the stage, the "female ghost" was lying quietly in a "pool of blood", next to her was a lamp stained with blood.
Looks extremely realistic.
Ruan Mian took a deep breath, pursed his lips, and suddenly stretched out a finger and gently poked the lamp.
The tentacles were very soft, and after confirming that this was really just a prop lamp, Ruan Mian let out a long sigh of relief.
Bo Yan saw all his little movements and couldn't help but feel weak in his heart.
Ruan Mian is such a person.
Even though she was extremely scared, with her fingers trembling with fear, she still reached out to test whether the lamp was soft and whether it would really hurt anyone and whether it would hurt in order to confirm one thing, the safety of the NPC, or the "female ghost" in front of her.
As soon as the two men squatted down beside the "ghost girl", she suddenly opened her eyes again, looking extremely ferocious. She screamed in a sharp voice: "Avenge me! You must avenge me, it was Xu Qin who did it! Avenge me, otherwise I will keep you all here to dance with me!"
A new piece of information appeared - revenge, Xu Qin.
Bo Yan immediately asked: "Where is she? How can we help you?"
"She's hiding among the audience who are watching me dance!" the "female ghost" continued to scream, "Go, pull her out for me, pull her out quickly and bring her to me!"
Ruan Mian and Bo Yan looked at each other again, stood up together, turned around and walked towards the audience seats.
The audience seats still seemed extremely quiet, without a single person in sight.
But Ruan Mian and Bo Yan both knew that new things might pop up here at any time!
They walked slowly, looking carefully at every corner of the audience.
Just as they were about to reach the first row of seats, countless "ghosts" suddenly emerged from below the originally empty auditorium!
The “ghosts” were all wearing different clothes, all very ordinary and normal clothes, but each of them had two lines of blood and tears on their faces, the corners of their mouths were strangely crooked to one side, and their eyes were stiff and empty.
Each one of them said exactly the same thing: "I am innocent, I am innocent--"
The voice was extremely hoarse and unpleasant.
As they talked, they all slowly walked down from the audience seats, and walked towards Ruan Mian and Bo Yan step by step like Tetris pieces.
"Quickly retreat!" The sharp voice of the "female ghost" suddenly sounded behind him, "Don't let them touch you, quickly find Xu Qin!"
Ruan Mian and Bo Yan retreated together. His face was already pale, but he couldn't help cursing: "Fuck! How the hell do I know which one is Xu Qin?!"
The final "ah" sound sounds like a turn.
The "ghosts" probably didn't expect him to suddenly curse at them, and they all paused for a moment.
"I'm telling you!" The "female ghost" screamed behind him, "Find, find a girl with brown curly hair, wearing a pink T-shirt and denim overalls!"
This condition was indeed accurate, but the problem was that not only were there so many "ghosts" in front of him, but Ruan Mian was also so scared that his brain crashed. He couldn't calm down at all, let alone think or make any judgments.
The words of the big boss reappeared in his mind -
If you really encounter someone scary, you can just hold your friend's hand...
Hold...a friend's hand...
In the chaos, Ruan Mian subconsciously lowered his head to look at Bo Yan's hand.
Pull... ?
His fingers seemed to have their own consciousness, trembling slightly, but he couldn't help but move closer to Bo Yan's hand.
Just before her fingers were about to touch Bo Yan's, Bo Yan seemed to sense something and suddenly moved faster than Ruan Mian. Without hesitation, he grasped Ruan Mian's trembling, cold little hand and held it tightly in his palm.
Bo Yan's palm was unexpectedly warm, and Ruan Mian was startled. At that moment, he even forgot to be afraid and couldn't help but turn his head to look at Bo Yan.
"I'm scared," Bo Yan sensed his gaze, turned around and raised his lips, saying frankly and naturally, "I want to hold hands with Ku Ge, okay?"
Ruan Mian moved his lips but didn't say anything in the end. He just snorted and turned his head away, but didn't break away from Bo Yan's hand. He even secretly held it back.
The "ghost shadows" were getting closer and closer. The female ghost behind kept urging them, and the "ghost shadows" in front of them kept repeating the same sentence one after another, like a devil's sound piercing their ears.
But Ruan Mian miraculously calmed down. His gaze flashed quickly over each "ghost" like a searchlight, and he kept reciting the conditions in his mind.
Brown curly hair, pink T-shirt and overalls...
Found it!
Ruan Mian suddenly raised his free hand and pointed, "It's Xu Qin, she's there!"
Before he finished speaking, Bo Yan had already stretched out his free hand, grabbed one of the straps of Xu Qin's overalls, and pulled her to the edge of the stage.
The other "ghosts" retreated in an instant, leaving only Xu Qin still shouting, "It's not me, it's not me! Someone ordered me to do this! It's Qian Lin!"
As Qian Lin left the room, the door on the other side of the auditorium suddenly opened.
Ruan Mian subconsciously turned his head to look at Bo Yan, who nodded at him, "It should be the next level."
As he spoke, he took Ruan Mian's hand and walked towards the door.
Ruan Mian was probably still confused, so she just followed Bo Yan obediently and didn't even shake off his hand.
The two of them walked through the door together, and the moment they entered another room, the door behind them suddenly closed, isolating them from everything that had just happened.
Ruan Mian immediately looked around and found that this was a place similar to a laboratory.
A large and long laboratory table was cluttered with various experimental tools.
Standing at the door, there was no way to find any useful clues. Although Ruan Mian was afraid, he still said, "Let's... let's go forward and take a look!"
Bo Yan said "hmm", still did not let go of Ruan Mian's hand, but took him to the side of the experimental table.
As soon as he stood still, Ruan Mian realized something was wrong. Why were he and Bo Yan still holding hands? !
The awkward feeling came back, Ruan Mian quickly shook off Bo Yan's hand, but without looking into his eyes, she said with a stern face: "Okay, now... now it's not so scary!"
No need to hold hands!
Bo Yan was almost laughing at this little guy who refused to admit his mistake. Just when he was about to say something to tease him, something suddenly grabbed his ankle!
What's even more amazing is that before he could react, Ruan Mian, who had just shaken off his hand and said "not too scary", screamed and jumped three feet high, and then very accurately and technically hung on him...
That’s right, it’s cheating.
She wrapped her arms around his neck, clamped her legs around his waist, and buried her little head in the crook of his neck, like a koala.
Bo Yan should have been delighted by such a sudden and intimate physical contact, but in this situation, he really couldn't be happy.
He was even a little worried. He was worried that after Ruan Mian got off him and recovered, she would feel that Ku Ge had lost all face and would kill him directly in the haunted house.
The author has something to say: Xiaobo: I held hands and hugged him, even if I was silenced, it was worth it! [bushi]
