Gu Siye picked up the mask beside him and examined it. He noticed that the mask in his hand was half black and half white. "What's the significance of this one?"
Li Zhiyi examined it and said, "Your mask is the Netherworld Ghost Mask. It has a special kind of rune engraved on it. The person who wears this mask can communicate between the Yin and Yang realms and summon the dead."
"Sister-in-law, do you mean that wearing this mask allows us to go to the underworld for a visit?"
"The underworld is not a place to play around; you'll have nightmares when you come back."
Just then, everyone heard a bloodcurdling scream! "Ouch! It hurts! What happened to my face?"
The people standing next to the girl were all talking amongst themselves: "What's wrong with her?"
"I don't know! Look at her face, it's all rotten! It's terrifying!"
A girl was frantically scratching her face, until it was covered in blood, but she still wouldn't stop! It was as if there was something terrifying on her face.
"Sister-in-law, is this girl crazy?"
"The mask she's wearing is an insect egg mask. It's called an insect egg mask because countless tiny insects were sealed inside the mask using magic. But for some reason, the magic has loosened, so these tiny insects are gnawing at her face, which is why she can't help but keep scratching."
At this moment, the person in charge arrived and immediately ordered his men to take the girl away.
The manager turned around and apologized to everyone, saying, "Dear guests, I'm really sorry, but this girl has a mental illness. Please continue having fun."
However, a shadow fell over everyone's hearts, and some people silently put down their masks.
"Mr. Chen, please have your wife send over the photo of your daughter wearing a mask." She wanted to confirm.
Chen Zhihe immediately called his wife and soon received a photo. Li Zhi looked at the photo, compared it with the mask in front of him, and finally smiled slightly and said, "That's right, it's this one."
"Sister-in-law, these two masks are different!"
"Yes, because after Chen Ketian wore this fox demon mask, she was targeted by the fox demon on it, so the fox demon temporarily left the mask, making it a mask without any spiritual energy. However, the person who made the mask then infused it with a new soul, and this new soul is a wild wolf."
Gu Nianzhi couldn't understand either, so she simply stopped asking.
Li Zhiyi watched as those who had chosen their masks walked outside and said, "Come on, let's follow them and have some fun. Have you all chosen your masks?" As he spoke, Li Zhiyi put the wolf mask on his head.
They all shook their heads. "Miss Li, these masks you're talking about are so scary, we dare not wear them!"
“Yes, Miss Li, what if we wear the wrong mask?” Chen Zhihe was also afraid that he had picked up the wrong mask and would attract some unclean things.
Li Zhi casually pointed to a few, "You can wear these, it's fine."
Gu Siye refused to listen to her orders. He casually picked up the mask in front of him, which was the Netherworld Ghost Mask she had just mentioned. Although he believed in Li Zhiyi's abilities, he was still skeptical that a mask could communicate with spirits. He wanted to see what strange things would happen if he wore it.
Li Zhi didn't care about him. The man was a person of great merit, and even if he wore it, the underworld officials wouldn't dare to accept it.
Everyone put on masks and followed the waiters out the door to a room with about twenty or thirty people inside.
One of the managers said, "Now that everyone has chosen their masks, I hereby officially announce that the game begins."
In an instant, all the lights in the venue went out. Someone cursed in fright, followed by a scream.
Because everyone wears a different mask and experiences different things, but most people face bad things.
Looking at the pitch blackness before her, Gu Nianzhi tightly gripped Li Zhiyi's sleeve and asked, "Sister-in-law, what exactly do these people want? Didn't you say these masks are all very eerie?"
"Yes, but we won't get into any trouble here. We'll just experience some scary things, but when we get home, we'll be haunted by evil spirits. If we die, it won't be the amusement park's fault, but our souls will be controlled by the person who made the mask." This is practically killing two birds with one stone.
Gu Nianzhi was wearing a kitten mask. She hadn't experienced anything frightening, but she didn't dare to relax at all and didn't dare to leave Li Zhiyi's side for even a moment.
At this moment, Gu Siye found that there was no one in front of him. The once noisy room was now empty except for him.
The window was blown open by the cold wind, letting in dim light and shadows, and an ominous atmosphere filled the air.
He pushed open the door and walked out, but strangely, he didn't encounter anyone along the way. He felt something was wrong and called out the names of Li Zhiyi, Gu Nianzhi, and Fu Yanche, but no one answered him.
He tried to take out his phone to call them, but realized his phone was gone too. He wondered if they'd been arrested or if something had happened. He frantically searched the amusement park, but the once bustling place was deserted; only he and the wind whistling past his ears remained…
Then he saw a man in black ahead, acting suspiciously and doing something he didn't know. But when he saw him, the man acted as if he hadn't seen him and walked away. He couldn't find anyone to ask for directions, so he decided to leave first and then go to the police station to find the men.
He rowed away from the small island, but once on board, he found that he couldn't control the boat. The boat kept drifting westward, and finally a strong wind blew up on the sea. A wave crashed over him, and he fell into the sea.
After falling into the sea, he tried his best to swim upwards, but he swam deeper and deeper until he reached the seabed. The seabed was different from what he had imagined. He floated in it and looked at the seabed. It was so beautiful. There were strange fish and strangely shaped seaweed.
Some unidentified creatures were playing happily in the water, and he wondered why he wasn't lacking oxygen. He felt completely at ease swimming in the water.
At that moment, he saw a huge white shark swimming towards him with its jaws wide open. Gu Siye was so frightened that he quickly dodged to the side, barely avoiding the shark. However, the shark was not giving up and was determined to come back and devour him.
Just then, he heard a familiar voice say in his ear, "Gu Siye, wake up."
