Chapter 98 Zhaoyang Palace, Xiao Pei has a headache
At that moment, looking at the old sedan chair parked alone in the dark, Pei Heng's heart inexplicably skipped a beat.
It seemed as if he could see through this simple setting some memories of that wedding that he had never experienced personally.
Pei Heng subconsciously curled the corners of his lips.
The fitness coach next to him suddenly said, "Hey, buddy, the explanation only says that a destined person needs to go to the wedding, but it doesn't specify who must go!"
"You're small, and I don't think you'd be very brave. Why don't you let me do it for you? I'm experienced in this kind of exciting activity!"
As he spoke, his eyes kept glancing towards the sedan chair, and it was obvious that he was thinking about Shen Shi who was sitting alone in the sedan chair.
Pei Heng raised his eyebrows slightly and turned his head to look at the fitness coach.
"You want to steal my wife."
The fitness coach didn't notice the change in Pei Heng's tone, nor did he notice the cold looks of Ling Yue and Huo Xiao beside him, and he was still grinning.
"It's just a game, just a joke to liven things up! Don't be so stingy, buddy."
"That's really bad." Pei Heng ignored him.
At this moment, the NPCs playing the sedan bearers and bridesmaids appeared silently from somewhere and began to push the sedan chair, moving it to the corner of the mourning hall.
Pei Heng picked up the red satin prepared on the table next to him and walked straight towards the sedan chair.
The fitness coach who wanted to join in the fun was about to catch up when he was blocked by Ling Yue and Huo Xiao on the left and right.
"What do you mean..."
The fitness coach felt a little uneasy when he saw the two young men in front of him with stern expressions and imposing aura.
Huo Xiao scoffed, "Are you kidding? Do you think you can bully our young master?"
Before he finished speaking, the fitness coach didn't even see how he moved. He just felt pain in his knees and wrists, and his whole body was spinning.
Then he was thrown heavily to the ground.
Ling Yue controlled the force and did not hurt him, but the pain was enough to prevent him from getting up for a short time, and he could only groan in pain.
"Ouch!!" The fitness coach grimaced in pain, shocked and angry, but when he met Ling Yue's cold eyes, he dared not say anything.
The young couple and the female college student next to him saw this and subconsciously took a few steps away from him.
"What's wrong with this guy? He's just joining in on the fun while other couples are playing games. He deserves it."
"That's right, he has no tact." Zhou Jingming shook his head and leaned over to watch the fun.
Pei Heng ignored the interlude behind him.
He walked to the front of the sedan chair and stood still. The four NPCs who played the sedan bearers stood there woodenly according to the procedure, ready to start their scary performance after the groom kicked the sedan chair.
Faced with this kind of environment, most players would be hesitant and afraid, or even dare not step forward.
However, Pei Heng remained calm and kicked the door of the sedan chair.
"Yun Qing."
From inside the sedan came Shen Shi's response with a smile, "Yeah."
Then, a corner of the sedan chair curtain was lifted from the inside, revealing half of Shen Shi's face with a faint smile.
According to the script, the NPC should start to threaten the groom with threatening gestures, creating chaos and tension.
But Pei Heng's reaction once again exceeded the NPC's expectations.
He saw those NPCs dressed in scary costumes about to pounce on him, but instead of being frightened and grabbing the bride and running away like ordinary players, he ducked down and got into the sedan chair.
He also lowered the curtain of the sedan chair tightly.
The four NPCs carrying the sedan looked at each other and froze in place.
“???”
This process is wrong! The groom has also entered the sedan chair, how can this be performed?
The bridal sedan was very narrow inside, and light seeped in through the red curtains, casting a hazy dark red hue inside.
Pei Heng stared at Shen Shi for a long while before he seemed to be relieved. He pulled Shen Shi over and held him on his lap, holding him in his arms.
Chen Shi didn't hear the NPC outside urging him to complete the process, so he was not in a hurry. He leaned quietly in Pei Heng's arms. After noticing that Pei Heng entered the mourning hall scene, his mood became a little abnormal, and he seemed a little absent-minded at this moment.
He asked in a low voice with concern, "You've been a little... scared since you came in?"
Pei Heng shook his head, rubbing his chin lightly against the top of Shen Shi's head, his voice calm.
"I'm not afraid, but..."
Pei Heng's expression remained unchanged, and his tone remained unchanged, as if it was a trivial matter not worth mentioning. "I seem to be sick again. I saw myself."
Shen Shi was stunned, "What?"
Pei Heng's voice lowered, and he mumbled vaguely, "I saw... my previous life self, and I still have a headache."
He rubbed his temples. "It's strange."
Shen Shi's heart sank, and he gently smoothed Pei Heng's slightly frowned brows, "Maybe this place is too depressing, let's not play anymore, okay? Let's go out now."
Pei Heng was originally feeling uninterested, and coupled with his physical discomfort, he nodded and responded weakly.
Shen Shi kissed the corner of his lips soothingly, straightened his clothes, lifted the curtain of the sedan chair and walked out.
The NPCs outside are still in a daze.
Shen Shi pressed the emergency intercom distributed by the staff when entering the haunted house and said clearly: "Hello, one of our companions is unwell and wants to end the game early. Please guide us out."
Ling Yue, Huo Xiao and Zhou Jingming heard the noise on the intercom and immediately gathered around.
Ling Yue looked serious: "What's wrong?"
Shen Shi apologized to the other players, "I'm sorry, my friend felt unwell and had to end the game. The tickets for this game will be doubled for everyone."
Then he whispered to Ling Yue, "Heng feels a little unwell, let's go out first."
Zhou Jingming got anxious when he heard this, "It's my fault. You insisted on playing this. Let's get out of here!"
Chen Yu began looking for light switches and exit signs.
Except for the fitness coach who dared not speak out, the young couple and the female college student all expressed their understanding. After all, safety comes first.
You have almost experienced the horror atmosphere of this experience, and you can still get double compensation.
Soon, in order to ensure safe evacuation, the staff in the haunted house control room turned on all the lights in the entire area.
Suddenly, the house that had been eerie and dark just now became brightly lit, and the atmosphere of horror dissipated in an instant.
Clear indicator arrows also lit up.
The group walked back along the way they came. Under the bright light, the layout and details of the house were clearer.
While protecting Pei Heng, Ling Yue habitually observed the surrounding environment.
His steps became slower and slower, his brows gradually furrowed, and when he reached the spacious courtyard connecting the front yard and the atrium, Ling Yue suddenly stopped.
Under everyone's astonished gaze, Ling Yue nimbly climbed the columns and eaves, and in a few steps he lightly jumped onto the roof, standing steadily on the blue-gray tiles.
The other players and the staff in the control room who saw this scene through the surveillance were all stunned.
What's going on?! How did this tourist suddenly start climbing walls and flying over rooftops?
Ling Yue stood on the roof, looking down at the entire house, and his guess was confirmed.
He flipped over and jumped down swiftly, landing silently.
Chen Yu adjusted his glasses and asked, "What's wrong? What did you find?"
Ling Yue quickly walked up to Pei Heng and Shen Shi and lowered his voice, "The backyard of this house... was built in imitation of the backyard of Zhaoyang Palace."
"Your Highness, this is the Zhaoyang Palace where you often went to escape the summer heat in your previous life."
Huo Xiao exclaimed, glancing at Chen Shi who was also somewhat surprised, "...What a coincidence, the newly prepared wedding is also in Zhaoyang Palace."
Pei Heng looked up when he heard that, a little surprised. After a few seconds, he said nothing.
"My head hurts so much, I feel like I'm going to have a brain."
Maybe it's time to recover some memory.
