"Brother Ma, if you have anything to say, let's go to the next room and talk. The corridor is really dangerous." Xiao Sun grabbed Ma Feng's arm and dragged him to the other side of the corridor.
"No, no, I thought about it for a long time and I think..." Ma Feng was dragged by Xiao Sun with no hope in life. He didn't even have the strength to struggle.
He felt dizzy, the world was spinning, his body ached, his eyes were sore, and he felt like crying.
"Brother Ma, please stop talking. I understand. But we have already reached the deepest part of the haunted house. This may be the last scene. Are you really willing to give up like this? Wouldn't all our previous efforts be in vain?" Xiao Sun grabbed Ma Feng's collar and said, "There is no hopeless situation in the world. There are only people who are hopeless about the situation. We may be only one step away from success."
Ma Feng tightened his mouth. He stared blankly at the darkness around him. Everything was hidden in that darkness: monsters, evil spirits, dangers, and a way out.
His fingers slowly clenched tightly, and a faint flame ignited in Ma Feng's eyes.
"People who don't believe in miracles will never be able to create miracles. The owner of the haunted house also thinks that no one can escape from here, but think about it carefully, isn't the haunted house built for people to visit? Is there really a haunted house in this world that cannot be passed or escaped?"
Xiao Sun's words were full of power and pointed out the direction for Ma Feng.
Gritting his teeth, Ma Feng felt that it would be a pity to give up now. He rubbed his dizzy head and said slowly: "Xiao Sun, let go first, I can walk by myself."
Holding onto the wall and standing up straight, Ma Feng explored the corridor bit by bit: "There is a door every three meters. We walk along the wall and hide inside the house when we hear a cat meowing. After entering the room, we close the door immediately. One person stands behind the door, holding the door with his back, while the other searches for the secret passage in the room. We divide the work and cooperate to maximize our advantages."
"Okay!" Seeing Ma Feng's hope rekindled, Xiao Sun even felt like crying.
It was so inspiring that he even saw himself who refused to give up.
Xiao Sun firmly believes that he is just an ordinary person. In order to live a normal life, he often reads some "powerful" words to encourage himself.
"All the hard work will definitely pay off, Brother Ma, we will definitely find a way out!" Xiao Sun and Ma Feng encouraged each other as they struggled forward in the corridor.
All games have ways to complete them. Ma Feng is actually a very smart and capable person. Apart from his character flaws, he has very strong abilities.
With the help of Xiao Sun, although he has not yet adapted to the darkness, he has found the pattern of ghosts' actions.
After being frightened and stunned five more times, he and Xiao Sun finally arrived at the bottom floor of the dark building.
Along the way, Ma Feng was covered in scars. In addition to the physical pain, his soul was also subjected to inhumane torture.
Whenever Ma Feng was on the verge of coma, Xiao Sun would wake him up immediately. The calls of "Brother Ma" made Ma Feng lost on the edge of nightmare and reality.
He held on with all his strength and persisted until now.
After entering the last room on the bottom floor of the dark building, Ma Feng heaved a long sigh of relief, and Xiao Sun also sighed: "It's really not easy. I guess even ghosts can't get out of this scene."
"This is the last room. The secret passage should be here. Check it carefully." Ma Feng's voice was weak. If there was light, it would be visible that his face was pale and his lips were purple. He looked like a disembodied employee of a haunted house.
The two entered the room and just touched the bedroom door when they suddenly heard a man's voice coming from inside.
"You are the ninth person I have killed. Let me think about what I should take from you? Nose? Ears? Forget it, I'll just take your eyes."
"I know you've been looking for a secret passage. In fact, the way out is hidden in my room, in the bedroom full of cat corpses."
"Is it desperate?"
"You know the way to leave, but you can no longer escape. I like to see the expression on your face now."
After the man finished speaking, the sound of a knife cutting something was heard in the bedroom again, followed by blood oozing out from under the door. Ma Feng felt as if he had stepped on something sticky under his shoes.
"The murderer is giving us a hint. The way out is hidden in the room full of cat corpses!" Ma Feng's face was distorted. The exit was in the room where he had been hiding, but he followed Xiao Sun all the way to the bottom floor of the building.
Ma Feng was so angry that he almost fainted. He took a step back and his shoes made a sound as they stepped on the blood.
"who!"
The man's voice was heard from the bedroom, followed by a cat's meow!
Knowing they were discovered, Ma Feng and Xiao Sun started running outside frantically.
"Go to the room on the first floor that's full of cat corpses!"
With the ultimate killer chasing after them, the entire dark building scene entered the most tense and terrifying moment.
The sounds of cats' meows could be heard everywhere, and Xiao Sun and Ma Feng were running in the corridor for their lives.
Ma Feng's heart was beating very fast. This was probably the most exciting experience in his life.
"No, I can't run anymore, I can't hold on any longer!"
"Brother Ma! Believe in yourself!"
“I really can’t run anymore!”
"Don't stop! We can win!"
Xiao Sun's voice kept coming from the front. Ma Feng had completely lost his sense of direction at this time. Xiao Sun's voices of encouragement were his way forward in the darkness.
Chasing Xiao Sun's voice, Ma Feng stimulated all the potential of his body and tried his best to keep up with Xiao Sun's pace.
The murderer was right behind him, following him like a shadow. Now the only chance of escape was to leave this scene through the secret passage.
The sense of urgency was indescribable, and there was only one thought left in Ma Feng's mind - run!
His muscles remembered the height of the steps, so even if Ma Feng didn't use his eyes to look, he would not trip over the steps every time he took a step.
"Come on! Don't be afraid of the darkness! When the sky gets dark enough, the stars will shine brightly!"
“We can do it because we believe we can!”
"If you want to be a grass, you should grow orchids. If you want to be a tree, you should grow pine trees!"
The power of belief is contained in human language. Ma Feng, who was in a trance and whose body was about to fall apart, managed to return to the top floor of the dark building with the encouragement of Xiao Sun.
He ran very fast, all distracting thoughts in his mind disappeared, and his consciousness seemed to have merged with his legs.
It seemed as if Ma Feng no longer existed in the world, only a pair of legs that kept running in search of a way out.
After breaking open the door, Ma Feng and Xiao Sun rushed into the room full of cat corpses. They searched among the cat corpses like crazy.
The cat's meowing in the corridor became more and more shrill, and the whole scene seemed to have changed in some way. The walls were cracking, the building was shaking, and it seemed that mouths appeared on the ground, as if they would swallow the tourists at any time.
Various strange noises began to appear. What frightened Ma Feng and Xiao Sun the most was that a voice very similar to Chen Ge's was heard outside.
They didn't hear clearly what the voice said, and the two of them didn't care and frantically moved the cat's body away.
In the boundless darkness, a faint light appeared, and Ma Feng's hands moved faster.
"I saw it! I think I saw it!"
The bloody and dirty cat's body was moved away, and under the carpet piled with death, there was a ray of light of life hidden!
A faint beam of light shone into the house through the gap in the secret door. Ma Feng's eyes became moist and tears welled up in his sockets.
"It's light, it's light!"
He grabbed the handle of the secret door and pulled it with all his strength.
"Fortunately, I didn't give up! All my efforts have paid off! The suffering I have endured will eventually become a gift from fate to me!" Ma Feng gritted his teeth. He had already thought about how to make things difficult for Chen Ge after he got out.
Ma Feng opened the secret door, and the faint light dispelled the darkness. He stretched out his arms, like a flower proudly blooming in the darkness.
“There is never a real desperate situation in life. No matter how much hardship one suffers, no matter how much suffering one goes through, as long as one still has a seed of faith in his heart, one day he will be able to get out of the predicament and let life bloom again.”
The gentle words in the book resounded through Ma Feng’s heart. He ran into the secret passage towards the light, sprinting at the fastest speed in his life!
After walking down the stairs, a dark iron door appeared in front of me.
After enduring countless hardships, Ma Feng dragged his "wounded" body and ran to the black iron gate.
“What is failure? Nothing, it is just one step closer to success; what is success? It is to have walked through all the roads that lead to failure, leaving only one road, that is the road to success!”
After removing the chain from the door, Ma Feng used both hands at the same time to push open the iron door in front of him!
"It's over! It's finally over!"
Tears filled with various emotions slid down the corners of his eyes. Men don't shed tears easily, but they will until they are heartbroken.
“Bang!”
The black iron door hit the wall, and Ma Feng saw the scene behind the door.
The surging black fog made it impossible for him to open his eyes, and his tears of emotion were quickly dried by the wind.
"Bang!"
His legs had lost their strength and could no longer support his body, so Ma Feng fell to the ground.
"Why?"
These three simple words are enough to express Ma Feng’s complex inner world at this moment. Hope and despair collide with each other, and all expectations turn into a black mist.
Looking at the black fog in front of him and the ghostly fire that was faintly visible in the fog, Ma Feng's sight slowly shifted away. He seemed to be out of his body, silently looking in a certain direction.
"Brother Ma..." Xiao Sun gently pressed Ma Feng's shoulder. In order for an evil ghost to condense into a physical body, it needs to constantly consume negative emotions and accumulated resentment, so most of the time the evil ghost is in a state that living people cannot touch. But Xiao Sun feels that Brother Ma is worthy of his own physical body to comfort him.
This powerful CEO has encountered a hurdle in his life and now needs help and encouragement.
"The secret passage leads to a hidden scene. We found the source of the black fog, which means we are very close to clearing the level!" Xiao Sun grabbed Ma Feng's shoulders and shook him hard: "Cheer up!"
"I'm fine, I'm fine." There was no more gloom and calculation in Ma Feng's eyes, and his gaze seemed a little dull.
"Brother Ma, didn't something happen to you?" Xiao Sun felt that Ma Feng was in a trance state at this time. He also hoped to change the Virtual Future Park's prejudice against the horror house through Ma Feng, but now the prejudice has not been changed, and the acting helmsman is almost going crazy.
"Brother, we have gone through so much hardship and finally left the scene just now. It is a pity for you to give up now. I was also expecting that there was an exit behind the door. The owner of the haunted house may have thought of this. He may have deliberately designed the last scene to make people collapse in front of the exit." Xiao Sun didn't know what he was saying. He wanted Ma Feng to cheer up now: "No matter what, we can't stop now."
It seemed that Ma Feng drank too much chicken soup and was now allergic to it. He still sat on the ground with a dull expression.
He wanted to faint but couldn't, he wanted to move but he didn't have the strength, and going out was even more of a luxury. He could only sit where he was.
"Brother Ma! Do you think there is anything more terrifying than deprivation of vision? We just escaped from a completely dark scene. This building is at the deepest part of the town. It is obviously the most terrifying scene. We may be just one step away from passing the level." Xiao Sun began to convince people with reason.
Ma Feng slowly lowered his head. He instinctively wanted to cover his ears. His hands were about to rise, but he suddenly felt that it was stupid of him to do so. "The only person who is helping me now is Xiao Sun. Maybe he also sees me as someone to rely on. If I fall, he probably won't be able to hold on for long. This is the power of a team."
With his arm being grabbed by someone, Ma Feng looked up subconsciously, and Xiao Sun's simple face came into his eyes.
"What's wrong with me? I don't even dare to touch the helping hand extended to me by others?" Ma Feng hated himself very much. He summoned up the last bit of stubbornness in his heart, grabbed Xiao Sun's hand, and slowly stood up.
"The junction of the two scenes is the most dangerous. We will be attacked by evil spirits from both scenes at the same time. Let's leave quickly." Xiao Sun didn't know where the way out was. The exit of this scene might not have been designed yet. "It's impossible to pass the level. Let's find a place to hide first and endure the 60-minute experience time."
"Sixty, sixty minutes?" Ma Feng staggered and almost fell again.
"We have been visiting for forty minutes. We just need to hold on for a little longer." Xiao Sun looked around and made a judgment based on his memory: "There are man-eating monsters hiding in the black fog. The only safe place in this world is the residential building. As long as we hide in the residential building, we will have a chance to survive the rest of the time."
"I'll listen to you."
Ma Feng was in a trance, as if his soul had been scared away and had not been found yet. He just let Xiao Sun drag him and run wildly in the black fog.
Cursed faces emerged in the black fog. Ma Feng's facial muscles twitched and he occasionally laughed uncontrollably. He looked at the horrible monsters around him and slowly forgot where he was and who he was.
At this moment, the only thing in his eyes was Xiao Sun who was still running. He admired Xiao Sun very much. In his not-so-happy life, Xiao Sun was the first person who made him feel reliable.
It was a life-and-death journey, but Xiao Sun finally brought Ma Feng through the black fog and into the residential building.
Pushing open the door of Building A in Jinhua Community, Xiao Sun led Ma Feng into the corridor.
"I know a room that is definitely ghost-free. We can rest there."
Xiao Sun led Ma Feng into the house where he used to live. As soon as he opened the door, he heard strange noises coming from the corridor.
"Other neighbors are coming! You mustn't say anything."
Xiao Sun pushed Ma Feng into the house. He hid at the door and paid attention to the situation outside.
The room looked clean and ordinary. Ma Feng finally breathed a sigh of relief. He sat on the floor and looked at the posters of singers on the wall.
Turning his eyes, Ma Feng suddenly saw a photo frame with a young man holding a guitar in it.
He vaguely felt that the person in the photo looked familiar. He struggled to crawl to the table, and when he took the photo, a death certificate fell out from under the photo frame.
"Sun Xiaojun?"
An indescribable feeling of fear instantly engulfed Ma Feng, and his whole body was shaking.
