Haunted House Survival System

Chapter 22 The Cellar
cellar.

When Jin Jiu came to the cellar, he saw that the door had been opened.

Sure enough, the little girl had already come here first.

In front of him was a downward step leading straight into the darkness.

Jin Jiu went deeper along the steps, getting more and more frightened as he walked.

From time to time, some black shadows appeared on both sides of the narrow steps and printed on the wall. These were all the traces of the wraith being sealed by the vajra.

It seems that the heroine has really grown a lot. Leaving aside those puzzle-solving levels, she should be able to deal with the ghosts in the second act alone.

But, what is going on with this weird arrangement of tables and chairs?

Jin Jiu walked to the first room under the steps, which was also the fork of the three roads in the cellar.

There used to be a wooden table, two chairs and a cabinet.Now these things all fit neatly together like Lego bricks.

The cabinet is placed horizontally at the bottom, and two armchairs are placed parallel in the middle, with a wooden table on top.

The radiating black wraith marks on the surrounding walls indicate that a great war has been experienced here.

The corner of Jin Jiu's mouth twitched. He could already imagine the scene of Yan Ling standing on the highest wooden table and fanning out to cast spells.

Isn't this posture the same as when he dealt with the four hanged female ghosts in Yin Yun'er's bedroom?

It's just that the heroine seems to have a certain degree of obsessive-compulsive disorder, and even the angle of stacking is square.

Jin Jiu glanced at the three forked roads, one of which obviously had many traces of resentful spirits.Even with some blood.

Jin Jiu's heart tightened and he asked: "System, what is Yan Ling's current health value? Where is she?"

【Yan Ling's life value is 40%, now... 5 meters away from you】

As soon as the system finished speaking, Jin Jiu saw a petite figure appearing at the corner of the forked road in front of him. A palm-sized tear on his chest was still bleeding, and his pink-blue tight dress was stained red.

He waved to Yan Ling happily, and said, "Elder Sister, I'm here."

Seeing him, Yan Ling ran over in surprise and joy.

When passing by his side, the footsteps did not stop, but just said one word: "Run!"

Turned around and ran to another fork in the road.

Jin Jiu was taken aback, and saw a dozen or so wraiths behind her, like an aunt rushing into a shopping mall during a limited-time discount, rushing in from the corner with red eyes.

MD, dare to touch my heroine?swallow me...

Before he could devour it, Jin Jiu's killing intent moved, and the Wraith Demon Lord behind him went up to meet him.

A long-handled sickle appeared in his hand, and the heads of resentful spirits flew up.

In a moment, the space was filled with black mist, and all the wraiths were killed.

[Kill 17 resentful spirits, increase resentment by 34%, current resentment is 44%]

The system prompt sounded, it seems that the grievances were not counted in the personal dungeon just now, only in this main chapter.

This TM is actually mine?

This setting is unscientific!
Jin Jiu glanced at the Wraith Demon Lord with resentment on his face, you'd better kiss the wall.

Looking at the forked road that Yanling ran into, she was nowhere to be seen.

Jin Jiu had no choice but to follow, shouting as he ran, "Don't run, the monsters are all gone."

As soon as the words fell, Yan Ling appeared in front of him with a blood bottle in her hand, and Jin Jiu took a step back in fright, saying, "Why are you invisible? What kind of skill is this?"

Yan Ling took a sip of the blood bottle, took out a talisman, shook it, and said, "The talisman of escape, I just picked it up."

Jin Jiu leaned over to take a look, and asked, "Where did you pick it up? Why didn't you use it just now? Why didn't I know there was such a thing?"

Yanling smiled triumphantly, and said, "The Taoist ghost dropped it. This one has a cooldown time. The Taoist ghost always drops this. I still have a dozen."

Yes, my heroine, it seems that she has experienced many battles.

Jin Jiu suddenly remembered something and asked: "Taoist ghost? No, why don't I remember that there is a Taoist priest in this scene?"

Yan Ling shrugged her shoulders and said, "In the room led by the road just now, I put the jade pot and spring vase on the altar and opened a secret door. There are all Taoist ghosts inside."

After hearing her finish, Jin Jiu blinked at her and said, "And then? What props did you take?"

Yan Ling looked blank: "No more, nothing. When I came out, a bunch of resentful spirits suddenly appeared chasing me, just the ones you saw."

A hidden door with no props?
It can't just be those evasion symbols, right?

Based on Jin Jiu's years of smelling...his intuition told him that if there is a secret door, there must be a prop.

"Let's go, let's go back and have a look." Jin Jiu immediately turned around and pulled Yan Ling to walk the same way she came just now.

The room at the end of the cellar is much simpler than the ground floor, with only two ordinary wooden chairs and a dilapidated desk, on which there is the jade pot spring bottle that Yan Ling mentioned.A hidden door beside the candlestick was open, revealing a faint red light inside.

Jin Jiu pushed open the secret door, and the scene inside was really weird.There is a huge birdcage in the middle, and the floor in the center seems to be mottled with dark red blood.

Behind the birdcage are layers of spiritual tablet cabinets.There are at least hundreds of tablets densely packed inside.

Looking at these tablets, I don't know why Jin Jiu felt a little apprehensive.

These tablets are all stuck with some spells in disorder.

Who would put a spell on their ancestral tablet?
Jin Jiu took a closer look and saw that these tablets read: "Five Thunder Order", "Fire Dragon Pan Sword Order", "Jade Emperor Order"...

It doesn't look like an ancestral tablet.Most of the charms pasted on them are also worn out.

"These charms, if you tear one, a Taoist ghost will appear. I have torn it up a lot." Yan Ling said, tearing off a spell.

A wraith with the appearance of a Taoist priest rushed out of the tablet from which the spell had been torn off.

Before Yan Ling raised the vajra, the Demon Master of the Wraith Spirit had already slapped the Taoist ghost lightly with his hand, and his soul flew away.

[Kill the Taoist Wraith, increase the resentment by 3%, and the current resentment is 47%]

[Trigger the plot of the branch line: Guixiu Yingui.Do you want to receive it? 】

Hey, there really is a plot!
Yan Ling rushed to the place where the Taoist ghost disappeared, searched the ground carefully, and asked, "Why didn't it fall?"

He glanced at the Wraith Lord in surprise again: "This is your baby? Can you fight monsters when you grow up?"

Baby...adult?Jin Jiu's face darkened, what game were you playing before?
But to a certain extent, the Wraith Lord is indeed his pet baby.

Jin Jiu showed a smile of caring for mentally handicapped children, nodded and said, "Yes, I was caught before entering the cellar. How long have you been in Chapter 2?"

Yan Ling said: "It's been a long time, I'm here just after Chapter 1, about ten minutes."

Jin Jiu was stunned, ten minutes is a long time?He spent a lot of time in "Chapter 2. Part [-]".

Without worrying about time, Jin Jiu turned his gaze to the huge birdcage in the middle and said, "Have you ever been in this?"

Yan Ling shook her head and said, "It's empty at first glance, so why go in?"

Jin Jiu frowned and thought carefully. It is absolutely impossible for such a contradictory device to be placed here just for decoration.But if he walked in like this, wouldn't he become the protagonist of the death horror movie that he hates the most?
Forget it, aren’t horror games just death-seeking games?
Jin Jiudao: "You wait for me outside, I'll go and have a look first, come in if you have nothing to worry about."

After all, he opened the door of the birdcage and walked in.
