"Uncle, uncle! Did you hear me? Hurry up and get up! Stop teasing me!"
Wen Yuexin next door shouted, but there was no response.
"Damn! They must have done this on purpose. Even after taking sleeping pills, they couldn't sleep so soundly."
Tang Yun grabbed his hair and shouted in annoyance.
"No, they are indeed asleep, and they are in a deep sleep. Their facial features are closed and they can't hear your voices."
Wen Xi looked around and looked at Room 201.
"Sister Wen Xi, what exactly does this mean? No matter how deep your sleep is, you can't not wake up, right?"
"It depends on the situation. Their souls are locked and trapped. Even if they are fine, we need to find a way to wake them up."
Wen Xi walked to the wardrobe, opened the door, and a piece of paper floated out.
Gu Yuanqiao picked up the paper on the ground before her and took a look at it.
Wen Yuexin anxiously ran over and grabbed her hand, "Sister Wen Xi, what does it mean that the soul is locked and trapped? Could it be that, like last time in Honghai Village, there is also... that kind of thing here?"
Wen Xi said calmly, "Do you remember the old woman we met yesterday?"
"Remember!"
"That old woman hadn't finished her words yet, and I roughly guessed what she meant."
"What she wanted to say was, how could a living person live in this place!"
Even though it was broad daylight, everyone felt chilled by her words.
Gu Shaoyun looked flustered. "Wen Xi, are you telling us that there are ghosts in this house? Then why didn't you say so earlier? You clearly said before you came in last night that there are no ghosts here."
Wen Xi shrugged, "Not yet, but there is something wrong with this house."
"So what? Should we leave?"
Gu Shaoyun's frightened expression made Tang Ying and Tang Yun a little nervous.
"Xiao Yun, what are you panicking about?"
Gu Yuanqiao spoke, and when he saw their gazes, he waved the paper in his hand. "I finally found the program team's mission card. It says we have to find five ancient artifacts on Qingyun Mountain! Look, Uncle Xu even made a point of not letting us into this room yesterday, and what happened? The mission card is right here!"
"So, Yuan Qiao, what do you mean?"
"Yes, Senior Lu and Mr. Tao must be acting to match the program's plot. They must act like they're asleep. You know, Senior Lu's acting is always very good! As long as we find those five ancient artifacts, they will definitely wake up."
Tang Ying suddenly realized, "Yeah, that's the plot, Yuan Qiao, you're amazing. Now that you've said that, it all becomes clear to me! Hey! I was really scared to death. I almost thought that thing really existed."
[I see! I was shocked. I thought it was really haunted. Mr. Gu's analysis is spot on. This variety show by Director Wang is truly a reversal.]
Something seems off to me. These two people are pretending to be asleep, but they're too similar. Also, I was watching the livestream last night and I think I saw them coming out.
"laugh!"
Wen Xi sneered rudely.
"Wen Xi, what are you laughing at?"
Tang Ying glanced at her with a resentful look, and it was obvious that she had something against her. She was even unwilling to call her "sister" in that hypocritical way.
"Laughing at you silly cute."
Wen Xi walked to room 202, took out the key and stabbed Tao Jianzhu's arm hard. A red mark appeared immediately, but Tao Jianzhu did not react at all.
"You said Senior Lu Yijun has good acting skills, that's fine, but Sister Yuexin's uncle is a doctor, is his acting so good? You know, when a person is in pain, they will react reflexively. Even if it's just micro-expressions or body language, he didn't react. Tell me, is he acting?"
Wen Xi smiled and looked at Gu Yuanqiao, whose face was ashen, and said sarcastically, "Uncle Tao's acting skills are enough to win the title of Best Actor."
Tang Ying's face was grim, "This, this, this..."
Wen Jinyu mocked, "That's what I mean, my little sister is smart. Some people shouldn't pretend to know something they don't."
Gu Yuanqiao narrowed his eyes and stared at Wen Xi, gritted his teeth and asked, "So what you said is true? The soul is trapped, it's really nonsense."
Wen Yuexin shook her head. "No, I believe Sister Wen Xi. What should I do to make my uncle sober? Sister Wen Xi, I'm relying on you now. Please help me."
Wen Xi glanced at the paper in Gu Yuanqiao's hand. "Honestly, is this task card given to you by the production team, or was it written by someone else and deliberately placed there for us to find? Can you really tell the difference?"
This one sentence made Gu Yuanqiao's scalp tingle.
The paper in his hand grew hot. He pursed his lips, perked up, and took another look. "There's no production team logo on it, and the words are handwritten. I've never seen such handwriting before."
"Damn! Is this a crime show? Or a supernatural show? The more I listen to it, the more it sounds like a ghost story!"
Tang Yun was completely awake.
"Exactly. If this is truly a supernatural event, why on earth does the production team have to treat us like this?"
Gu Shaoyun didn't understand.
"Maybe even the director team doesn't know about this."
Wen Xi spread his hands, "The old lady said yesterday that coming to Qingyun Village at this time means that we came at the wrong time. What's more, we took the initiative to deliver ourselves to the door."
Gu Shaoyun stamped her feet and said angrily, "Wen Xi, don't you know how to tell fortunes? Then have you figured out what's going on? If there's really a problem, let's retreat quickly!"
"I didn't sense any ill will. Besides, judging from Village Chief Wu's facial features, aside from being a little odd, he doesn't seem like a particularly evil person. So, firstly, he wasn't fully aware of the situation, and secondly, it's unlikely he planned it."
Wen Xi said calmly, "How can Senior Lu and Uncle Tao leave now that they're in this state? Why not call the production team and ask what's going on? If anyone wants to leave first, they'll have to call someone to pick you up. It doesn't look like the people in this village have cars, or bicycles."
"Okay, I'll go get my phone."
Tang Ying rushed back to the room. After a while, she came back with an ugly look on her face and empty hands.
He stared at them with empty eyes and broke down, "My phone is missing!"
"What?"
Gu Yuanqiao sensed something was wrong and cursed, "Damn it, I'll go look for it too."
"I'm going too!"
After just a few minutes, everyone returned dejected. "Our phones are gone! What happened? The production team didn't confiscate them, but instead they disappeared right here?"
"Did a person or a ghost steal our phones? He doesn't want us to make calls?"
