In just a moment, Lu Shijing had already bought the ticket. Yun Shu didn't say anything else and planned to go into the secret room to see what was going on.
"Let's go."
Lu Shijing walked towards the entrance of the secret room and reached out to hold Yun Shu's hand.
Yun Shu felt a little uncomfortable and wanted to take her hand back, but Lu Shijing suddenly stopped, turned around and stared at her for a while.
He said, "Let me hold it for a minute."
"But……"
Before Yun Shu could finish her words, Lu Shijing's voice came again, "I'm scared."
Yunshu:?
What are you afraid of?
Last time you met a real ghost, you didn’t seem scared. You even scared the female ghost!
Seeing her dazed expression, Lu Shijing curled the corners of his lips, then continued to hold Yun Shu's hand and led her into the secret room.
After entering the secret room, Yun Shu felt that the yin energy inside was even stronger. She no longer cared about Lu Shijing holding her hand, and began to follow the yin energy in the secret room to find the source of the ghost handprint.
There were other people who went into the escape room with them, and they were also couples.
In addition to puzzles and levels, this secret room also has real people disguised as NPCs who deliberately appear to scare people, and screams can be heard from inside the secret room continuously.
Lu Shijing held Yunshu's hand tightly throughout the whole process. Wherever Yunshu went, he followed her.
"Time is almost up. Why don't you go over there and take a look? I'll break the mechanism here."
Yun Shu said to him.
Lu Shijing first glanced in the direction of Yun Shu's finger, then with that cold and handsome face, he said seriously, "It's too dark there, I'm scared, I don't want to go alone."
Yun Shu: “…”
Okay, okay, as long as you are happy!
Yun Shu was speechless for a while, but did not ask him to leave. Instead, he squatted down and groped in the cabinet to see if there was a key to pass the level.
"It's not here. Let's go over there and have a look."
Yun Shu stood up and prepared to leave.
As soon as she stood up, the decorative window next to the cabinet suddenly opened, and an NPC with long hair climbed in from the other side of the window.
Just on the other side of the secret room where Yun Shu and the others were, there was another couple looking for the key. They immediately let out a scream of fear and huddled together in the corner.
“Ghost!!”
Lu Shijing looked at the couple for a while, then reached out and hugged Yun Shu.
Yun Shu: “…”
Are you addicted to acting, kid?
Yun Shu's mouth twitched, and she said to him, "That's a human in disguise, what are you afraid of?"
“He’s so ugly.”
Yun Shu thought for a moment after hearing this, then she pulled away Lu Shijing's hand that was tightly holding her and walked in front of the NPC.
The NPC was a boy. He didn't expect Yun Shu to dare to come over, so he looked down at her, then lifted his long hair that was blocking his eyes, revealing a hideous mask, trying to scare Yun Shu away.
In the end, Yun Shu's expression didn't change at all.
The next second, the NPC felt his legs hanging in the air, as if he was being carried by the thin and weak girl in front of him!
Yun Shu directly picked up the NPC, stuffed it back into the window, and quickly closed the window.
NPC:?
The couple watching nearby: ???
Yun Shu came back to find Lu Shijing and said nonchalantly, "Okay, you don't have to be afraid now."
Lu Shijing: “…”
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Yun Shu turned around and went to look for the key somewhere else, and didn't let him hold her hand anymore.
When she came to the next room, she saw that it was decorated like an ancient worship hall, with red silk hangings and red candles lit.
There are two armchairs in the center of the room, and on the table between the armchairs lies a red veil.
"My friend has played this secret room before, and she said the key to this level is hidden inside that chair. As long as someone sits on it and puts on a red veil, the key will fall out.
But I don't dare sit on it. My friend said that after she sat on it, an NPC secretly touched her shoulders and ankles, deliberately scaring her. "Why don't you go sit on it?"
"Okay, I'll take the chair then."
The voices of the couple from before came from the door.
The girl pointed at the armchair and said the room was right inside the chair, but she didn't dare to sit on it, so she asked her boyfriend to sit on it.
Her boyfriend walked straight to the armchair, sat down, and was about to cover himself with the red veil.
Just when he was about to put on the red veil, Yun Shu walked over and took the red veil away.
Yun Shu said solemnly, "You can't cover this, or you'll be dead."
The couple were both stunned.
Then the girl said to Yun Shu, "But the key will only fall out if we cover it with the red veil. Otherwise, we won't be able to get the key."
The boy also said, "Isn't it just a piece of red cloth? Covering it up won't do any harm. At most, the hidden NPC will touch it a few times. I'm a rough guy, so it doesn't matter."
He reached out to take back the red veil.
Yun Shu looked at him steadily and said, "You will die."
The boy's heart skipped a beat when he heard this. "Why are you scaring me? This is just a locked room game, not some..."
Before he could finish his words, Yun Shu pointed at his shoulder and said, "Look, there's a ghost handprint on your shoulder. There's something wrong with this chair and this veil. They're not ordinary props at all. Someone was touched while sitting here before, and maybe it wasn't an NPC."
