Ever since he stepped into the gate of the Yun Mansion, Xiao Tangqiu felt uncomfortable all over, as if every cell in his body was warning him - "Get out of here!"
If he hadn't known the "theorem that if you fall behind in horror movies/horror games you will die (unless you are the protagonist)", he really wanted to turn around and run away immediately. However, since Lu Dadong had already proved the "theorem that the doors of buildings in horror movies/horror games cannot be opened after entering" with practical actions, he didn't have to waste his efforts.
After witnessing the butler's terrifying resurrection, everyone stood frozen in place for a long time, not daring to move. Lu Dadong had already collapsed to the ground in fear, staring at the butler's calm expression in fear, as if he had seen a ghost... and wasn't he? WwWx520xs.
In the end, Luo Mansu calmed down first: "Then please take us to the main hall."
The butler turned and left with his head down, and everyone followed him in fear.
Xiao Tangqiu surveyed the terrain as he walked. This was a habit he'd developed after years of playing horror games. Once entering a new map, he had to memorize the terrain and plan his escape route. He just didn't know if the ghosts in the Cloud Mansion would follow the rules of a horror game chase and honestly circumvent obstacles. After all, ghosts don't have physical form, so they can just pass through walls. He'd been able to successfully shake off the paper figure outside probably because it had physical form, but the ghosts in the Cloud Mansion...probably had never played a horror game before! How could they follow the "horror game chase rules" with him? There was no way to save the game here, and it would be impossible to reload the game after triggering the death ending!
However, it must be said that the Yun Mansion looks particularly grand from the outside. Once you go inside, you will see that it is even more magnificent and splendid, with gorgeous furnishings. It is obvious that this is a wealthy family with fine clothes and delicious food.
"We're here, everyone, please come in."
Before they knew it, they had arrived in front of the main hall. After entering the main hall, they found that a banquet had indeed been set up inside. Many people were sitting at the table. Sitting in the main seat was an old woman with an old face and luxurious clothes. She was obviously the old lady mentioned by the housekeeper.
"Everyone, please take a seat," the old lady exuded the pressure of a superior. No matter what she said, it sounded like she was giving orders. "Welcome everyone to my son Jizhou's wedding banquet tomorrow. Please start eating."
Sitting on the left of the old lady was a young woman who was also dressed luxuriously, but the seat on the right was empty. But strangely, there was a set of bowls and chopsticks in front of the empty seat... But soon, Xiao Tangqiu's attention shifted to the other guests.
In addition to them, there were several other guests in the Yun Mansion, and these guests were none other than the Silent Trio who had parted ways with them at the beginning. When they saw Xiao Tangqiu and the others, there was no surprise on their faces, as if they had expected it.
The newcomers sat down with different thoughts. After they sat down, Xiao Tangqiu found that the number of bowls and chopsticks already placed on the table to entertain them was just right. Although he was no longer surprised by this, it made him even more puzzled by the empty bowls and chopsticks next to the old lady.
However, apart from him, no one else seemed to notice the extra set of bowls and chopsticks beside the old lady, and the people in the Yun Mansion were naturally even more accustomed to it.
The dishes on the table were very rich, with fish and meat, which looked quite tempting, but the newcomers couldn't help but look hesitant. Who knew what these dishes were made of?
Seeing the trio picking up their chopsticks and starting to eat, Xiao Tangqiu couldn't help but look at Luo Mansu. Luo Mansu didn't hesitate for long, and soon picked up his chopsticks and started eating with relish.
Xiao Tangqiu had been working hard all day and was already hungry. He soon couldn't control himself and picked up the chopsticks, bowing to the delicious food. Seeing Xiao Tangqiu pick up the chopsticks, Tang Mianmian hesitated for a moment and started eating too. After all, if they were going to die, they would die together!
However, after Xiao Tangqiu took a few bites, he found that this feast only looked good. In fact, it had no taste at all and tasted like chewing wax. But it was still better than the fish meat yesterday.
After the meal, the old lady sent them away in an arrogant tone, and the housekeeper took them to stay in the villa.
"What did you find in Yun Mansion?" Luo Mansu asked the three people who were traveling with them without any hesitation.
The woman leading the trio glanced at him and said calmly, "Why should we tell you?"
Luo Mansu said: "Of course we can cooperate. We can exchange intelligence."
The woman sneered, "I don't need your intelligence, let alone your cooperation."
