The doorbell kept ringing, which was particularly piercing.
"Who's here?" Glasses lowered his voice, as if speaking in a whisper: "It's broad daylight, it can't be a vengeful spirit, right?"
"Probably not." Another voice responded in a low voice.
Glasses turned his head and saw the property ghost's pale face, and suddenly had a heart attack.
“……”Shut up.
"Brother Yue, can I go take a look?" Glasses said as he stood up.
"Go ahead."
Yueya responded and followed. Feifei licked his paws for the last time, pounced on Yueya using the coffee table, and climbed onto his shoulders by grabbing his clothes.
Glasses looked out through the peephole, turned around and said to Yueya, "Brother, these are the two players who live on the third floor. They may be here to ask about what happened last night."
The people standing outside were players, and Glasses' expressions were much more relaxed.
"How are they doing?" Yue Ya asked.
"Very good, it seems that he slept better than me last night." Glasses turned the door lock but did not open it immediately: "Should we let them in or talk here?"
Suddenly a gust of wind blew in from outside the door, and the door opened a crack.
Feifei sniffed the air, suddenly his fur stood up and he started barking.
The ominous premonition came to mind again, and Yue Ya's eyes turned cold: "Lock the door quickly!"
Glasses closed the door immediately, but it was blocked by something.
"It's stuck!" Glasses looked down and saw an unusually pale hand reaching out from outside the door, trying hard to squeeze in!
Glasses' heart instantly jumped to his throat, and before he could react, his wrist was scratched by the strange hand!
Yue Ya had a cold face. He took over Yan Jing's grip on the door handle and slammed the door hard.
The pale and slender wrist was pinched almost to the point of being deformed and shrank back.
"Why are you pinching my hand?" A complaining voice came from outside the door.
After a while, the player outside the door said again: "You borrowed tableware from the restaurant yesterday. I am here to pick up the tableware. If you don't return it, we will all be in trouble. Open the door quickly."
Her tone was normal, as if she was giving some kind of advice.
Yueya ignored her, and she began to yell: "Open the door quickly, let me in... let me in... let me in!!"
By the end of her speech, it was close to a roar, a sound that didn't sound human.
“Brother Yue, is this player a human or a ghost? It’s so scary… uh…” Glasses suddenly lost his voice, twitched all over, and fell to the ground.
Yueya was quick to grab his collar and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
Glasses was speechless. His head tilted back as if boneless, he foamed at the mouth, and his eyes kept rolling up.
Yue Ya frowned and checked Yan Jing's wrist that was scratched. The wound was not deep, and there was a black ghost face totem on it.
Starting from the ghost face, the skin of the glasses is turning into bluish white.
"What's going on?" The royal sister hurried over to help.
Yue Ya gestured for her to look at Glasses' arm and explained simply: "The player outside the door has become a puppet of the vengeful spirit, and Glasses has been indirectly marked by the vengeful spirit."
"Ah!!" Glasses screamed and opened his mouth to bite Yueya's arm.
Yueya pinched his cheek and pursed his lips: "Find a rope."
Glasses has lost consciousness and self-control. In order to prevent everyone from getting hurt, we can only control him first.
This was the second time that Glasses was marked by the vengeful spirit, but in this situation, no teammate wanted to abandon him. It was not known whether this was good luck or bad luck.
"Brother Yue, rope." The girl with the ball head took out a whole bundle of hemp rope and handed it to Yue.
Yueya moved quickly and tied up the struggling glasses like a dumpling.
The royal sister took out a handkerchief and stuffed it into Glasses' mouth: "Because he might bite his tongue off."
After a lot of hard work, Glasses was controlled and could only roll slightly on the ground. He broke out in cold sweat, his veins were throbbing, and he looked very painful.
Glasses' skin deteriorated very quickly, and Yue Ya knew that if he didn't get rid of the vengeful spirit that marked Glasses as soon as possible, he would soon become the next puppet.
"Brother Yueya..." Lulu came over at some point. She stood by the entrance door, her eyes as panicked as a deer.
Yue Ya comforted her: "It's okay, go into the house."
Lulu shook her head: "I want to be with you."
The player puppet outside the door was still roaring. Yujie put her arm around Lulu's shoulders and asked Yueya, "Is there only one player puppet outside?"
Yue Ya looked towards the cat's eye. The two standing in the front were player puppets. Behind them stood a large crowd of people, all with numb expressions. They were probably unconscious puppets.
Some of these puppet NPCs have severely corrupted skin, and it is obvious that they have been dead for a long time.
Yue Ya retracted his gaze: "Two player puppets and a bunch of corpse puppets."
The guy with the ball head didn't even need to count: "We are surrounded."
Yueya's cell phone vibrated at an inopportune time. He took it out and saw that the property ghost's phone had received a new message.
Without looking at Yueya, I can guess the content of the message. It must be sent by the "boss".
I clicked on it and saw that it was true.
Boss: [You can't escape. Give up resistance and give me the Gu Ghost Card. I will extend an olive branch to you again. This is your last chance.]
"Bang bang!" The puppet outside the door began to bang on the door, as if conveying the threat from his boss.
Since these puppets are not complete vengeful spirits, this door is likely to be destroyed by violence and will no longer be a protective umbrella for the player.
The royal sister asked: "Whose information?"
"Boss," Yue Ya said slowly, "boss and housekeeper should be Li Yu's vests. Li Yu uses these two identities to control the surveillance system of the entire community. The housekeeper is responsible for monitoring and contacting players, and the boss is responsible for controlling the Gu ghosts."
The lady nodded: "What did he say?"
"Let's return the Gugui card," Yueya thought for a moment, "I'll trick him first."
Yue Ya did not reply to her "boss", but used her own mobile phone to send a message to her "housekeeper": [Please set a time and place, and I will personally deliver the card to your door.]
The housekeeper replied immediately: [You finally woke up. The puppet will take you to 701. I will wait for you.]
Yueya replied: [OK, Boss Li Yu.]
After a long time, the housekeeper replied: [You are very smart. I am indeed using both accounts. Since we are going to cooperate, there is no need to hide it from you.]
Yueya handed the phone to Yujie and asked her and Wanzitou to look at the chat records: "These two accounts are indeed controlled by Li Yu."
The royal sister took a breath and said, "He really is everywhere."
The ball-head pointed at the gate and said, "Listen, the puppets are no longer making trouble."
The knocking sound died down, and then the doorbell rang.
Yue Ya agreed to meet, and the message conveyed by the puppet changed from a threat to an invitation.
Yue Ya looked through the peephole again and saw that the puppets were lined up on both sides of the door, welcoming him to open it.
Yueya was a little speechless.
To be honest, Li Yu was serious about recruiting him.
Even though he kept inciting evil spirits to rebel and almost destroyed the feng shui plan, Li Yu did not give up recruiting him.
Yueya said, "Someone needs to look after the glasses. I'm going to 701. At least one of you needs to stay here."
Yujie frowned: "Are you really going?"
The man with the ball head made a fortune, and the copper coin broke again: "...Oh, this copper coin is really ignorant."
Yue Ya thought clearly: "If I want to pass the level and save people, I must go to 701 and get the old man's Gu Ghost Card."
Agreeing to return the card and cooperate was just to lower Li Yu's defense. Yue Ya deliberately concealed the existence of the ghost in the wall in preparation for getting the last card.
Lulu rushed over and hugged Yueya's legs, her eyes red: "Brother Yueya, don't go."
Lulu also knew it was dangerous.
Yue Ya looked down at her and said, "Only when my brother goes there can we save Brother Glasses."
Lulu looked at Yan Jing. Only the whites of his eyes were left, and his entire arm had turned a strange bluish-white color.
Lulu pursed her lips: "Will Brother Glasses disappear? Just like Mom..."
"I won't let him die." Yue Ya took off the amulet and hung it around the neck of Yan Jing.
The function of the amulet is to resist harm from evil spirits, and it cannot dispel the curse of Glasses. However, at this time, it has a strange calming effect. Glasses no longer twitches and his expression has eased a lot.
Lulu also wanted to take off her amulet, but Yueya held her hand and said, "Keep it for yourself."
Lulu clutched the amulet and suddenly looked towards the door: "I don't want you to get hurt, I don't want you to die, and I don't want you to disappear..."
Yueya felt that something was not right with Lulu. He remembered that Yujie said last night that Lulu felt a little uncomfortable, so he thought Lulu was frightened.
"Believe me, brother. Go back and rest. You'll be fine when you wake up."
"I don't want to sleep. I'm afraid you'll all be gone when I wake up." Lulu walked forward, pressed one hand on the door, and said solemnly, "Brother Yueya, I will make the monsters obey me. Can you stay?"
At this moment, she didn't act like a child at all.
As soon as she finished speaking, an invisible aura spread out from the door.
The shrill doorbell sound was completely silenced.
Silence fell.
Yue Ya looked at Lu Lu, his dark eyes revealing surprise. Even he was surprised, not to mention others.
The royal sister was so shocked that her jaw dropped: "Lulu, what did you do?"
No one thought the doorbell stopping was just a coincidence.
Yue Ya didn't look through the peephole and directly opened the door. All the puppets lined up by the door lowered their heads in a posture of complete submission.
Lulu looked up at Yueya, looking at him sadly: "Brother Yueya, you see, they will listen to me. I can even hear Uncle Li assigning homework to them."
Yueya squatted in front of Lulu, looked into her eyes, and asked softly, "Lulu, are you feeling unwell?"
Feifei also poked his head out and looked at Lulu with his round eyes: "Meow?"
Lulu blinked and tears fell: "My eyes are uncomfortable. Sometimes I see your bodies turn into a bunch of numbers."
Lulu did say last night that her eyes were uncomfortable, but I didn’t expect this to be the case.
"You often talk about 'players', 'clearing levels', and 'props', and I also think along the way. I find that we seem to be different, and Feifei is not an ordinary cat," Lulu said in a low voice: "Today, when I woke up, I suddenly felt that this world was fake."
"And..." Lulu stretched out her hand: "I seem to be able to control some things."
Yueya was shocked, Lulu seemed to have awakened!
The NPC awakening actually has such powerful power.
The people in the live broadcast room were even more shocked than Yue Ya.
[Someone said that the anchor was too idle to pick up cats and rescue children... Damn, the cats he picked up were soul-devouring beasts, and the ones he rescued were awakened NPCs!]
[I was shocked. This was the first time I saw an NPC awaken after watching the live broadcast for so long]
[What kind of incredible luck does the anchor have! I'm so envious, tears are flowing from the corners of my mouth]
[Soul questioning, is this really a beginner's book?]
[I apologize for my recklessness. I once said that the anchor was a rookie. The anchor repeatedly used his strength to tell me that I am the rookie!]
