Horror Dolls
Gu Lin, the little auspicious beast, had not yet fully integrated into human society and had only been in the nursery for one day when he was pulled into the horror game by the system.
He has never had the chance to make friends with other children in real life, let alone play games with other children.
Others play games for recording programs, but Gu Lin plays games for real, and he plays with great involvement and has a lot of fun.
Gu Lin was like a child who had never eaten candy before. After eating one, he wanted another.
If you love playing games, you want to play them again.
Gu Lin put his hands together and bowed to Chen Su, like a lucky cat: "Uncle Director, please!"
Chen Su: “…”
You also know who has the most say, so don't ask anyone else for help, just ask him for help.
The program is still being recorded, and now is not the time for Gu Lin to play.
Chen Su looked at Gu Lin's little hands clasped together, his round head and round brain. Who can resist this little cute kid acting cute?
Chen Su decided to use a roundabout tactic and looked at the other children: "There are so many children waiting..."
The other kids all shook their heads: "We don't want to play!"
Except for little brothers, who would want to play a game where you could be eliminated if you are not careful?
The little brother is too young, still a baby, so he doesn't know the danger.
Chen Su: “…” OK.
Shen Su: "Play it again."
Everyone: “…”
Just pamper him!
Who remembers what this game is about?
[Hahaha, another one who is mesmerized by our cuteness. This is the fighting power of cute creatures! [Reward points x100]]
[The cub is acting cute and coquettish. Who can bear to reject a little cub? My heart is about to break! [Dog head]]
[Chen Su, you are smart!]
[If it were me, I would have picked up the baby and held him high up. I can’t help but hold him now.]
…
Gu Lin got what he wanted and played again. He ran around the circle, and Mu Chenke chased him from behind. He then chased Mu Chenke in turn.
The other children sang "Drop the Handkerchief" even louder to add to the fun, laughing happily.
This laughter and the laughter outside the castle sounded at the same frequency, blending into one, in a strange harmony.
Seeing that he had not only failed to trick his little brother, but also helped him to have fun, Cheng Yu was so angry that his face turned black.
At this moment, Cheng Yu felt something, his body stiffened, and he turned to look out the window.
Gu Lin had also looked out the window before, but he didn’t know what Gu Lin was looking at, as he hadn’t seen anything before.
But at this moment, his eyes suddenly widened and met the gaze of a little child lying outside the window.
That little kid actually has a face exactly like his!
Cheng Yu: “…”
Cheng Yu's pupils gradually dilated, and the "he" outside the window looked straight at him, then gave him a weird and exaggerated smile.
He said, “Got you.”
“…”
Cheng Yu didn't understand what was going on. When he came to his senses, he was horrified to find that he was no longer in the castle, but outside the window.
He was standing outside the window, where the "he" had just stood.
Cheng Yu: “!!!”
Through the window, Cheng Yu saw 40 children sitting in a circle in the castle, and one child was running with a handkerchief in his hand.
Suddenly, he froze.
No, there are 40 children in total. One child is running with a handkerchief. Why are there still 40 children sitting on the ground?
He already knows how to count and can do simple addition and subtraction.
Cheng Yu's hands and feet were cold. He was shocked to find that there was also a him in the castle. He was smiling at Gu Lin who was diagonally opposite him and patting the ground with his hands.
Gu Lin, who was sitting diagonally opposite him, also imitated "him" and made the same movements.
Finally, "he" turned his head, and Gu Lin also turned his head, but he looked straight at him outside the window.
This is exactly what happened just a few minutes ago!
Cheng Yu was standing outside the window. When he saw Gu Lin turning his head to look at him, he immediately started calling his name and even knocked on the window.
Gu Lin exclaimed "Huh", his face full of surprise, and the next moment he looked away.
Cheng Yu felt like he was falling into an icy cave: “…………”
Finished.
Although he didn't know why he suddenly appeared outside the window, he vaguely felt that he could not go back.
Cheng Yu kept banging on the window and calling for help, but with so many people in the castle, no one heard his cries.
"Help, wuwuwu, save me..."
Cheng Yu burst into tears.
Soon, "he" in the castle threw the handkerchief behind Gu Lin, and Gu Lin wanted to play again.
At this time, Cheng Yu heard the singing and sad childish laughter behind him.
"Hurry up and catch it"
"Hurry up and catch it"
“Hehehehehehe…”
Cheng Yu's body stiffened and he turned back slowly.
Behind him stood an innumerable number of children, densely packed together, one next to the other, all staring at him intently with strange smiles on their faces.
Countless pale-faced children stretched out countless little hands and pulled him in...
"ah--"
A shrill scream suddenly stopped.
*
In the castle, the game continues.
Gu Lin seemed to hear some sound and turned to look out the window again, but saw nothing.
But his little ears were sensitive and he could vaguely hear the singing and laughter outside the castle.
Gu Lin turned his head to look out the window because he heard the singing. He exclaimed "Huh" because he saw the window glass being hit by an invisible force, but he did not see Cheng Yu outside the window.
Gu Lin looked at Qi Yuan beside him: "Brother Yuan, why are you still singing outside?"
The reason why there are 40 children sitting on the ground is because of the addition of Qi Yuan.
But Qi Yuan cannot be seen with the naked eye.
Qi Yuan also looked out the window and said, "Baby, don't look out the window."
Gu Lin frowned in confusion.
Qi Yuan: "The real rule of this game is not to be caught by "yourself" outside the castle, otherwise you will be replaced."
"Once you make eye contact, you'll be caught."
Gu Lin immediately closed his eyes, turned his head left and right, and even turned towards the window, and said: "Baby, close your eyes, and you won't look at me."
Qi Yuan: “…” is also fine.
*
The game of "Drop the Handkerchief" is over, and 20 of the 40 children have been replaced without anyone noticing.
Qi Yuan pointed them out to Gu Lin one by one.
Seeing that Xia Yao, Qin Lumu, and Chen Ke were all fine, Gu Lin breathed a sigh of relief like a little adult.
The game is over and it's time for lunch.
Chen Su said: "After lunch, I will take you 20 kids to meet the investors."
The 40 children looked at each other in bewilderment.
20 children
But there are obviously 40 children here!
Although they were puzzled, no one dared to ask.
After going through so many things, the children all vaguely felt that something was wrong with this kid.
Gu Lin was brave enough to speak, but he would automatically filter out questions that he was not interested in.
After playing games for a whole morning, his stomach was already growling with hunger.
When he heard Chen Su say that he wanted to have lunch, his eyes lit up and he stood up obediently, waiting for the meal to start.
There are still 20 children left, and only two tables are prepared for lunch, with ten people at each table.
Chen Su took out a list and the 20 children whose names were called could sit at the dining table.
The 20 children whose names were not called stood there blankly, looking pitiful and confused.
All the children were very confused. Why were these 20 children eliminated?
The people were clearly right in front of him, but Chen Su and the other staff members seemed to be unable to see them, as if they no longer existed.
Gu Lin sat together with Mu Chenke, Qin Lu and Xia Yao.
Mu Chenke whispered: "Why can't they sit down?"
Those children who were standing stood there at a loss as there were only so many seats and there was no place left for them.
Xia Yao and Qin Lu didn't know what was going on and couldn't answer Mu Chenke's questions.
Gu Lin had just heard from Qi Yuan that these 20 children were the ones who were replaced.
He said in a crisp voice: "These kids are all fake."
Hearing Gu Lin's words, Xia Yao and the other two were a little surprised and confused. What did it mean to be fake?
Gu Lin told them about the songs he heard outside the castle and what Qi Yuan said to him.
Qin Lu said: "Why can you hear the songs outside but I can't hear them?"
Xia Yao and Mu Chenke nodded in unison, indicating that they didn't hear it either.
Gu Lin thought for a while, and then he became confused and scratched his head: "I don't know."
Three people: "..."
*
After lunch, Chen Su took 20 children to meet ten investors.
20 children lined up and stood in order, still according to their height, from tallest to shortest.
Gu Lin, carrying an Ultraman backpack and wearing a teddy bear hat, was still standing at the end, with Mu Chenke and Xia Yao in front of him.
This time, only Chen Su led the way, with no other staff. The ten investors were powerful and had mysterious identities, and not people that ordinary people could see.
To meet investors, you need to go through a maze.
With Chen Su leading the way, they passed through the maze very easily this time. They didn't encounter any small corpses or see any black cats.
What is unexpected is that there is a villa behind the maze.
This villa is hidden behind green plants, and its walls are almost entirely made up of green plants. If you don’t look carefully, it would be hard to tell that this is a villa.
Previously, Gu Lin and his companions used flying robes to fly out of the maze, but they did not see the villa behind the maze, probably because the villa was too hidden.
The door was also covered with ferns, which were lush and dense, covering the door panel completely.
Shen Su opened the door and led the 20 children into the villa.
The light in the villa was dim, and what was surprising was that not only was there plants crawling outside the villa, but there were also plants crawling inside the villa.
The air was filled with a damp, fishy smell that made people feel nauseous.
Gu Lin covered his nose: "It stinks!"
The other kids also used their hands to fan the stench in front of their faces. It was so stinky that it was enough to make people faint.
After walking a distance, Chen Su stopped.
The children behind him also stood still.
I saw a staircase in front of me, with ten chairs neatly arranged on the staircase. Sitting on each chair was an old grandfather with a haggard face and old skin.
These old grandfathers are so old that they can hardly move. Their faces are covered with age spots and there is a strong smell of old age mixed with the fishy smell of plants. The smell is simply amazing.
Seeing these 20 lively young children, the 10 investors' dull eyes lit up and flashed with a strange light.
The children stepped back unconsciously.
Looking at the ten old men in front of them, they felt inexplicably scared.
The looks in these old men's eyes are so strange that it makes people feel extremely uncomfortable.
And they sat there like dead objects, like cold tombstones.
Gu Lin stood at the end, tilted his head, and looked at the investor.
He looked at this, then that, and finally, his sights fell on the old man in the middle.
Hey, why does it look familiar?
The little boy tilted his head left and right, trying to identify it for a while, then said "Oh", and pointed with his little finger: "Grandpa Gourd King!"
Investor: “…”
The investor sitting in the middle, the Skeleton King, had a bloated and pale face.
When he saw Gu Lin, he looked the little baby up and down, seeming to be incredulous.
Gu Lin was wearing summer clothes before, but now he is wearing a small cotton jacket and a little bear hat on his head, but this tiger-like appearance is definitely the little sacrifice!
The Skeleton King's eyes, which were only a slit left, widened a little, and he couldn't help but say excitedly: "What do you know, little kid? Stop talking nonsense!"
Previously, the Skeleton Kingdom copy was permanently closed, and the copy NPCs were randomly assigned to other copies. The Skeleton King was assigned to this new copy that had just been opened.
The Skeleton King had a variety of expressions on his face, his deathly pale face flushed red and blue.
I didn't expect to see this little national treasure in this copy.
Last time, it was this little national treasure that ruined his plans, not only causing his plan for immortality to fail, but also causing him to be exiled to other copies.
Gu Lin said: "I'm not talking nonsense. You are the Gourd King. I just met you yesterday."
The yesterday he mentioned was actually last time, but the kid didn’t have the concept of year, month and day yet.
Xia Yao: "Little brother, what is Gourd King?"
Mu Chenke and Qin Lu also looked at Gu Lin.
The other children's eyes all fell on Gu Lin.
The little brother actually knows the investor. What is the little brother's background?
Next, Gu Lin started talking about the previous Skeleton Kingdom copy, where the Skeleton King used skeletons to extend his life.
Although this kid is young, he speaks clearly, has good logic and good expressive ability.
There were some things that Gu Lin could not fully understand, but fortunately he had a strong ability to repeat things, and he said them exactly as they were.
After listening to Gu Lin’s story, everyone was stunned.
Chen Su lowered his head, as if thinking about something.
He has been silent since entering the villa.
What Skull Island, what rose with a heart, it's simply a fairy tale.
But when I think about some of the bizarre things I've encountered since participating in this kids variety show, it doesn't seem that difficult to accept this setting.
The Skeleton King looked at Gu Lin with his eyelids twitching.
If he wasn't too old, he would even want to stand up and catch the little baby himself.
The Skeleton King pointed at Gu Lin with his trembling old hands and said, "It's you. I'm going to pick you, a little kid."
Gu Lin said: "Why are you picking on the cubs?"
Skeleton King: "..."
The Skeleton King was too bloated to stand up. He pointed at Gu Lin and said to Shen Su: "Catch this little national treasure for me."
Shen Su: ""
Little national treasure!
Chen Su looked at the little ball with a round head and paused for a moment, then walked towards him.
When Gu Lin saw Chen Su coming to catch him, he turned around and ran away with his short legs.
But before he could run two steps, a hand grabbed the Ultraman backpack.
Gu Lin stretched out his short hands, but he couldn't move.
Gu Lin said in a baby voice: "Help, help."
Chen Su: “…”
Chen Su hooked a finger around Gu Lin's small schoolbag, fixing the little ball in place.
