Chapter 967: Moving Forward



Standing in front of the secret room, Chen Ge listened attentively. The woman's singing was very strange. It seemed that she was singing a certain almost lost local music in Hanjiang.

I could only hear the woman's voice through the wall covered with talisman paper. When I closed my eyes, I seemed to see the blue bricks and tiles, and colorful curtains, as if I had returned to the past. I took a deep breath, and the lungs were filled with the melancholy scent of powder.

"It sounds unexpectedly good. This red dress is a bit special." Chen Ge perked up: "There is no employee in my haunted house who can sing ancient music. If she is willing, I can help her."

The woman's voice was mesmerizing. She spoke in dialect, and Chen Ge could only understand a small part of it. He didn't know whether she was singing about an opera or herself.

"Which room would you choose? The secret room covered with talismans is the most dangerous. Will you come here?" Chen Ge clenched his fists tightly. At this moment, he heard the sound of the door being pulled. The bedroom door outside the secret room was opened!

At the same time as the door opened, the long-haired woman who was sitting alone in the bedroom outside the secret room let out a scream.

"Xu Yin!"

Chen Ge decisively opened the door of the secret room. He saw a thin woman in a blood-red costume standing at the door of the bedroom.

She pressed her fingers against the door, there was an unresolved hatred in her scarlet eyes, her body was leaning against the wall, scars could be seen on the skin exposed outside her costume.

"Be careful!" Chen Ge shouted at the woman with long black hair in the house, grabbed the woman's arm, and used his back to block her.

While protecting her from danger, it also blocked her sight.

While she was still terrified and hadn't come to her senses, Xu Yin walked out of the secret room covered with talismans and rushed towards the man in red wearing a theatrical costume at the door.

"The red high-heeled shoes are guarding the shrine, blocking the front, and Xu Yin is chasing behind. Where are you running?" Chen Ge glanced behind him with the corner of his eye, and only stood up after Xu Yin and the red-dressed girl in costume left.

He was about to go out when his clothes were suddenly grabbed.

"You, don't go over there, that woman in costume is not an employee of the haunted house!" The woman struggled to utter a complete sentence, her messy long hair stuck to her face. This woman who had always disliked Chen Ge now had a big change of heart towards Chen Ge.

When the danger happened just now, this man stood in front of him regardless of everything.

Putting aside the business competition relationship, there is no flaw in this person's morality.

"How do you know she's not an employee of the haunted house?"

"I……"

"Don't worry, maybe she's just a projection. After all, this place is a fusion of forty hell-level scenes, so it's understandable that there are any strange projections." Chen Ge ran out of the bedroom as if he didn't notice the change in the woman's tone of voice.

All the other tourists who heard the noise also came out, but the female ghost in red was no longer in the corridor.

"Where did they go?" Chen Ge was not worried about the safety of Xu Yin and the bloody high heels. The two of them could delay the top-level Red Clothes for a long time even if they met one. "Now we can confirm that there is indeed a Red Clothes in the haunted house, but the other party's state is very strange, which is very different from the Red Clothes I have seen before."

Chen Ge couldn't tell exactly what was different. All he could do now was to try his best to control the man in red.

"The ghost is hiding in the shrine!" the policeman shouted, attracting everyone's attention: "The shrine door is open! The red high-heeled shoes are gone!"

With the help of the police, a wonderful misunderstanding occurred. All the tourists thought that the red high heels were the ghost in this cursed scene. They never thought of another possibility.

"Look here! The exit!" Xiaoling pointed to the back of the shrine, which was originally sealed with wooden boards. Just when the female ghost appeared, the wooden boards were removed by someone.

A cold wind blew across the crowd, and a dark road appeared behind the shrine.

"There is no door in the Cursed House. The exit should be hidden behind the shrine." The youngest boy stroked his chin and pulled at his scattered beard. "We didn't solve the puzzle, but the exit appeared by itself. Could this be a trap?"

"The last time I came here to visit, the exit was also here, but I tried it this time. The wooden board behind the shrine can't be opened at all. It seems that some conditions are not met." The policeman was afraid that the crowd would not believe him, so he was the first to run to the shrine: "Look, there is a pattern on these wooden boards, corresponding to the instructions on the fragments. If you arrange them in a fixed order, you can rearrange these wooden boards and then open this hidden door. But I tried it before, and I couldn't open it even if I arranged them correctly!"

"You know how to leave, why don't you share it with everyone?" Chen Ge stared at the police. He found that these people were still not honest and always wanted to play some tricks: "It seems that you are not desperate enough, but it doesn't matter."

When everyone realizes that this is not a game, but is truly linked to their own life and death, they will listen to Chen Ge and become his helpers.

If Chen Ge didn't come, they would be at risk of death at any time while working in the scene with the red clothes.

Now Chen Ge helps them solve this problem, but in return, they also have to pay something.

"Let's go. It's good to find a way out. Let's go to the next scene now." Chen Ge carried his backpack and ran into the bedroom next door. He secretly put another black and white photo into his pocket. "There's still a wind chime missing. Forget it. I'll look for it next time I come."

What Chen Ge wanted was not the items, but the obsessions on them. He had a comic book, and as long as he was given time, he could take away the obsessions through the comic book, and the items would remain.

After getting the things, Chen Ge avoided the shrine and entered the dark passage.

"The mystery of this scene has not been solved yet, and the exit was opened inexplicably. Is it really okay for us to go in like this?" The man with glasses looked at the police, and frankly speaking, they didn't want to continue exploring.

"It's a good thing to find a way out. What? Are you scared?" Chen Ge walked in front alone, and the others had to follow him in as "playmates".

Seeing everyone entering the new scene, Chen Ge smiled with satisfaction. These tourists could provide him with clues, serve as free labor, and help him verify certain speculations. The most important thing was that these tourists were witnesses, and their eyes could help Chen Ge clear all suspicion.

"Although Xu Yin and the red high-heeled shoes are not here, I still have the stench and the headless female ghost. My personal safety can be fully guaranteed."

Outside the cursed house is a dark corridor without any light. Using a mobile phone to illuminate the corridor, you can see several tombstones without any words on them, as if this is a mass grave.

At the end of the corridor there was a sign for a public hotel. Pushing open the shabby door, there was a large space inside.

"Is this the new scene?" Chen Ge was the first person to enter the scene, but he stood at the door and did not go inside.

After everyone entered, Chen Ge reached into his backpack and flipped through the comic book, quietly summoning the stench and asking him to put the wooden door of the Cursed House back together.

As the stench left, Chen Ge closed the door of the Mass Hotel. From now on, all tourists had no way out.
