The others thought the same, and they all looked at the seven doors and pondered.
Zhou Xiaozhen bit her lip and asked, "Sister Xiao, which door do you choose?"
Yu Xiao asked back, "What about you?"
"My lucky number is 6, I want to choose the sixth door." Zhou Xiaozhen pointed to the second to last door in front.
"The attending physician's words may not be credible." After dealing with attending physicians so many times, Yu Xiao knew best that these attending physicians liked to say some ambiguous words to mislead patients. "He didn't say that we can't go through the same door."
The two sisters didn't react much after hearing this. The four people from the Third Hospital looked at Yu Xiao, and Lu Chao frowned and reminded: "I advise you newcomers to listen to the attending physician. Although the attending physician's tips may have traps,
they will never tell lies." Feng Jun glanced at him, smiled and said: "Lu Chao has a bad temper, don't take it to heart. But although his tone is bad, what he said is not wrong. It's best to listen to the attending physician."
As they were talking, Wei Ran, who was standing aside, moved. She walked straight towards the seventh door without saying a word. The remaining six people watched her open the last door and walked in.
"So cold." A trace of sympathy flashed in Zhou Xiaozhen's eyes, "Is she the only one in her ward?"
Feng Jun and the other two had a brief discussion and then chose a door. Before entering, Lu Chao turned his head, frowned and said gloomily, "If you don't want to die, be careful."
In the blink of an eye, there were only three of them left in the corridor. Zhou Xiaozhen blinked and asked, "Are we going to separate?"
Yu Xiao asked her, "Do you want to separate?"
"Of course I don't." Zhou Xiaozhen looked at the doors, "I'd be scared alone."
"Then let's go together." Zhao Lan smiled, "Xiaoxiao is right, we can't believe everything the attending physician says. Besides, he only said that everyone has his own way out, but he didn't say that the way in can't be the same."
Since no one wants to separate, then let's go together.
The three of them opened Zhou Xiaozhen's lucky door number six. After opening the door, a white light flashed before their eyes. The three of them squinted their eyes and walked in. The dazzling white light disappeared, and there was a bedroom inside.
The decoration was quite retro, with crystal lamps hanging from the ceiling and wool carpets on the floor. Furniture made of mahogany, dressing tables, large beds, stools, cabinets...
"This is... let us come in and sleep?" Zhou Xiaozhen couldn't help but wonder.
Zhao Lan took a closer look and then stated her conclusion, "This is a woman's bedroom."
Yu Xiao's mouth twitched, "Is this your conclusion, Sister Lan?"
"Didn't you say we had to find an exit?" Zhou Xiaozhen took two steps forward and looked around, "This bedroom doesn't seem to have an exit. Is there a secret door?"
Yu Xiao thought about it, turned around and opened the door they came in.
Zhao Lan was a little surprised, "Xiaoxiao, do you want to enter through another door?"
But after Yu Xiao opened the door, she stood at the door without moving. Zhao Lan noticed her change, went over to see, and then she didn't move either.
"What's wrong?" Zhou Xiaozhen came over, put her hands on the shoulders of her two sisters and looked out. But she saw a small space outside the door. Under the bleak light, the toilet mirror inside was clearly visible. This turned out to be a bathroom?
"What's going on?" Zhou Xiaozhen was a little dumbfounded, "Isn't there a corridor outside the door?"
Zhao Lan took a step back and said, "We have been trapped since the moment we entered. This door does not lead to a fixed space."
To prove this, Yu Xiao closed the door, then opened it again, and the space outside the door actually changed again. This time, the kitchen is outside the door, a kitchen that looks very ordinary.
There is a refrigerator, a stove, and a range hood in the kitchen. The weirdest thing is that the stove is still on fire, and there seems to be something stewing in the clay pot on it.
This weird scene makes people's scalps numb. Zhou Xiaozhen swallowed her saliva, "What's stewed in the pot?"
Yu Xiao looked at her in surprise, "Are you hungry?"
"I just asked casually." Zhou Xiaozhen sniffed and said, "It smells good."
"Tomato beef." Zhao Lan said.
"What?" Yu Xiao suspected that he had heard it wrong.
Zhao Lan pointed at the clay pot and said again: "It's stewed with tomato beef."
"..."
Yu Xiao was a little confused. Is this the time to care about such a problem in this situation?
"Why is there beef stew here?" Zhou Xiaozhen poked her head out and looked around. "Is there someone living here?"
"Who would live in a dungeon?" Yu Xiao frowned. "Only ghosts would live in a dungeon."
"Would a ghost stew beef?" Zhou Xiaozhen couldn't help wondering. Don't ghosts eat people?
"Yes." Yu Xiao was very sure. "Iron cattle can cook food for people."
"Okay." Zhou Xiaozhen shook her head. "That means there is a ghost living here who can cook food for people."
"Not necessarily." Zhao Lan shook her head.
Yu Xiao thought she had discovered something, so she asked, "Why do you say that?"
Zhao Lan said seriously, "There may be more than one ghost living here."
"...You're right." Yu Xiao was silent.
Zhou Xiaozhen felt her scalp tingling when she had to think. She asked, "What should we do now? Should we stay in the bedroom and open the door, or go to the kitchen?"
Yu Xiao thought for a moment and said to the two of them, "Keep the door open. Don't let it close."
She stepped into the kitchen and Zhou Xiaozhen looked at her with wide eyes. Yu Xiao walked around the kitchen, opened the cabinets and looked around, but found nothing wrong. So she took three pairs of chopsticks, picked up the clay pot, and returned to the bedroom.
Zhou Xiaozhen was amazed, "You stole the ghost's meal?!"
"Close the door." Yu Xiao said.
Zhao Lan immediately closed the door, and Yu Xiao placed the clay pot on the dressing table and opened the lid. A strong aroma spread in the room. Zhou Xiaozhen sniffed and said, "What a nice smell! I haven't had breakfast yet."
Yu Xiao stirred the pot with chopsticks and asked, "Is this really beef?"
"It is beef." Zhao Lan, who has rich cooking experience, said, "I'm sure."
So Yu Xiao divided the three pairs of chopsticks, pulled over a stool and sat down, saying, "Let's have breakfast first."
The three of them had breakfast like this.
The tomato beef is very well stewed, soft and fragrant, showing that the ghost chef's cooking skills are very good. Yu Xiao and Zhao Lan analyzed the situation while eating, "The current situation is that every time the door is opened, the space outside the door will change. Maybe if we keep opening the door like this, we can find a way out?" "
It shouldn't be that simple." Zhao Lan waved the hand holding the chopsticks, "Even the attending doctors think this copy is dangerous, which shows that we haven't encountered the real danger of this copy yet."
"Maybe the way out is not behind the door?" Zhou Xiaozhen looked around the bedroom, "Could the way out be hidden somewhere else? For example, in the floor, in the cupboard, behind the wall?"
This is not impossible, but who can guarantee that the way out is definitely in the bedroom? Maybe in the kitchen, maybe in the bathroom. Do they have to tear down a space every time they open a door?
Zhao Lan ate a piece of tomato and said thoughtfully, "I once watched a movie."
Knowing that she had something to say, Yu Xiao and Zhou Xiaozhen immediately put down their chopsticks. Zhao Lan said, "The protagonists in the movie woke up and found themselves in a small space with doors on all sides. In order to leave that space, they kept opening the doors and moving forward, and many people died. In the end, they found that the way out was actually in the space they were in at the beginning."
Yu Xiao licked the corner of his mouth, "So you think we shouldn't leave here?"
Zhao Lan shook his head, "I'm just providing an idea. After all, there are no ghosts in that movie, and there are no supernatural events. It is fundamentally different from our situation here."
Yu Xiao thought about it. Time only said that they had to find a way out, and did not set a time limit, so they could stay here as long as they wanted. After making the decision, Yu Xiao said, "We won't leave here today."
She looked around and said, "Sister Lan and I will check the bedroom to see if there are any hidden passages in this bedroom. Xiaozhen, you are responsible for opening the door. If you find any special space outside the door, remember to tell us."
"Okay." Zhou Xiaozhen nodded.
The three of them quickly finished a clay pot of beef. After eating, it felt a bit salty. Zhou Xiaozhen smacked her lips regretfully, "It's a pity that there is no rice."
"Okay, let's get started." Yu Xiao stood up and clapped her hands, and then she and Zhao Lan checked the bedroom bit by bit.
Zhou Xiaozhen moved the stool to the door and sat there to open the door.
The first time she opened the door, there was another bedroom behind the door. The decoration was very modern, and there was a basketball on the floor of the room. It looked like a man's bedroom. She turned her head and looked back, and saw Sister Xiao and Sister Lan were lying on the ground carefully checking the floor.
This bedroom didn't look anything special, so Zhou Xiaozhen closed the door. She opened it again, and there was a living room outside the door, with a sofa, TV, and air conditioning. Zhou Xiaozhen turned her head again, and Sister Lan and Sister Xiao were still very serious.
She carefully observed the living room for a while, and there didn't seem to be anything special. This living room didn't even have a balcony. Zhou Xiaozhen thought about it and closed the door again.
She frowned and wondered why I was responsible for opening the door? My observation ability and IQ are not good enough. She would rather go and scratch the floor than open the door here. If she missed something, she would feel guilty.
Thinking of this, she opened the door again. This time, there was another bedroom behind the door. But the decoration style was different from the previous one. It was very retro. If you look closely, it was quite similar to the bedroom they were in now. But the bedroom outside the door was older, oh no, it was much more shabby. The placement of the furniture was also different. The mahogany furniture had lost its paint. The floor was very dirty, and there were dirty clothes thrown on the floor.
Zhou Xiaozhen couldn't help frowning, thinking, is there a ghost living in this room? That ghost must be very sloppy.
Just when she was about to close the door, there was a sound outside the door. With a thud, it sounded like something fell on the floor. She leaned her head to look inside, and then she heard another sound, that sound was clearly... footsteps!
Zhou Xiaozhen's eyes widened. Was it a ghost? A ghost living here?
She sat motionless, maintaining the posture of opening the door. The footsteps were a little slow, one deep and one shallow, coming from the right corner. Zhou Xiaozhen held her breath and watched without blinking.
She saw a foot, a foot without shoes. The foot was very black, not the color of sunburn, but the color of dirt that had not been washed for a long time. The toenails were very long, and there was black dirt inside.
Then she saw white, it was a skirt.
As she watched, an old lady wearing a dirty white nightgown, with messy white hair and wrinkled skin came out from the corner. She saw Zhou Xiaozhen sitting behind the door at a glance. Her eyes, which originally looked small because of her old age, suddenly widened, and her whole face was distorted, looking extremely ferocious. The old lady
opened her mouth and made a strange "ho ho" sound in her throat. Then she suddenly accelerated and rushed towards Zhou Xiaozhen.
At that moment, Zhou Xiaozhen's hair stood on end, and she slammed the door shut.
Yu Xiao and Zhao Lan, who were lying on the ground checking the floor, raised their heads and asked, "What's wrong?"
"There's a ghost!" Zhou Xiaozhen jumped up, "I saw a ghost!"
Yu Xiao and Zhao Lan stood up immediately, but saw Zhou Xiaozhen suddenly slap her head in frustration, "Oh! I really lost my mind."
"What's wrong?" Zhao Lan came over and rubbed Zhou Xiaozhen's head. After rubbing, she looked at the black marks on Zhou Xiaozhen's head and remembered that she had just touched the floor with a hand full of dust. She put down her hand calmly and said, "Why are you hitting yourself?"
"I shouldn't have closed the door." Zhou Xiaozhen was very upset. "I should have let the ghost in, and then we could try to understand the situation here from the ghost's mouth."
Yu Xiao blinked and said, "You are right, but it doesn't matter if we missed it. Now tell us carefully what happened just now."
Zhou Xiaozhen repeated the situation just now, and then she said, "She suddenly rushed towards me. Come over, I panicked and closed the door. "
Zhao Lan and Yu Xiao looked at each other, Zhao Lan asked: "Xiao Xiao, what do you want to say?"
Yu Xiao pursed her lips and said: "That old female ghost is so unhygienic. If the tomato beef was made by her, then I really shouldn't eat it."
Zhao Lan and Zhou Xiaozhen's faces twisted at the same time, Zhou Xiaozhen's face turned green, "Sister Xiao, can you stop talking about this?"
"Okay." Yu smiled and said, "Now it's confirmed that there is a ghost here. Our plan will not change. Xiaozhen, you are responsible for opening the door. If you see a ghost again this time, remember not to close the door and shout for us."
"Okay!" Zhou Xiaozhen nodded heavily, "I will definitely not close the door this time."
Then the three of them continued. Zhou Xiaozhen opened the door, and it turned out that it was not the bedroom, but a very dirty bathroom. It was extremely dirty, with thick dust everywhere, and there was dried dirt on the toilet. I don't know what it was.
She suppressed her nausea and looked around carefully. When she found nothing, she closed the door and then opened it immediately. Behind the door was a living room. The living room was very old and dusty, and the color of the sofa had changed. Zhou Xiaozhen looked carefully and found that she couldn't see some blind spots, so she tried to shout, "Hey! Is anyone there?"
No one answered her. Just when she was thinking about whether to ask again if there was a ghost, she heard footsteps again.
Zhou Xiaozhen's heartbeat began to accelerate and she held her breath. Then she saw a woman in her twenties wearing a denim jacket and a ponytail. The woman walked around the corner and looked at Zhou Xiaozhen in surprise.
Zhou Xiaozhen immediately shouted: "Come quickly! I saw a ghost again!!"
