I am fighting in the escape game

Chapter 56 The Third World 3

Following Shuxin, they left Chen's house and embarked on a secret mountain path.

The small road leads to the top of the mountain behind Chen's house, which is usually covered by Shuxin's blindfold, but no one has noticed it.

Walking up this road, Shen Changqing and the others slowly climbed to the top of the mountain, and saw a simple, old tombstone——

Chen Mingshi's tomb.

The handwriting on the tombstone is somewhat blurred, but because people often clean it up, there are no weeds around, but there is still a plate of fresh fruit.

"You should have heard a little about my story from your parents, right?"

Just when Shen Changqing was thinking of this, Shu Xin walked over, gently put her palm on the tombstone in front of her, stroked it, and asked in a gentle tone.

Cheng Haiyan nodded lightly: "Chen Ming is, he should be my elder who became a monk."

The corner of Shuxin's mouth curled up: "Yes, that's him."

It turned out that the owner of this tombstone was one of the monks Shuxin met in the temple.

Immediately afterwards, Shu Xin sighed and withdrew her hand: "I'll explain things to you here that you don't understand."

Looking at the silent Cheng Haiyan, she took a few steps back and recounted her experience.

"Thirty years ago, I was bullied by ghosts entrenched in the temple, and I was ordered to do many evil things. Later, they found the temple. Except for the ghost there, logically speaking, I should also be removed. "

Driven by the big demon to commit multiple murders, her hands have already been stained with blood. No matter what the situation is, she needs to be uprooted to avoid future troubles.

At that time, it was the little monk from the Chen family who interceded for her, and told the big monk that she was forced to be helpless, not by nature, and that instead of getting rid of her, it would be better to let her live and give her a chance.

In this way, Shu Xin escaped death successfully, and forged an indissoluble bond with that little monk Chen.

"After being let go, I felt grateful to them, and I didn't want to hurt others anymore, so I lived near the temple and practiced with them on weekdays. After more than ten years, it was not until 20 years ago that an accident occurred. Accident."

Somehow she thought of something, Shu Xin's face darkened slightly, and she showed a somewhat helpless smile: "At first, the big monster feigned death and escaped, but after more than ten years, he finished his cultivation and came back with his accomplices. "

At that time, Shuxin escaped a catastrophe because she went out, but when she returned, the temple was in a mess, all the monks she had known were almost dead, only Chen Ming was holding his breath.

Heartbroken, Shuxin wanted to use her cultivation to take revenge, but was stopped by Chen Mingshi at the last moment.

He didn't want Shuxin to be blinded by hatred, and he didn't want her to die tragically at the hands of the big monster. In the end, he could only concoct a lie for her in order to appease Shuxin when he was dying——

"He told me that his family, the Chen family, is now in decline. There is only a little girl who was born not long ago. I am the only person he knows. Without my protection, the little girl is likely to be heard by others. He wants me to protect that child until she gets married." Shuxin said.

This is why Shuxin stayed in Chen's house, not because she wanted to harm others, but because she wanted to protect Cheng Haiyan.

Chen Ming said this before he died, but in fact, it was just to divert Shuxin's attention from revenge. He became a monk when he was young, and he had long forgotten everything about the Chen family. The little girl was actually made up by him on the spur of the moment.

He thought that after so many years, no one would remember him. Even if Shuxin went to find the Chen family, it would take a lot of time.

And when she finds out that all these are lies, perhaps after long-term thinking, she will gradually become calm and come out of the hatred.

However, what he never expected was that something really happened to the Chen family.

When Cheng Haiyan heard this, a look of sadness appeared on his face uncontrollably.Based on his and Shu Xin's reactions, Shen Changqing confirmed his guess.

Just like what he said to Kang Le before, the problem in Chen's house is not the house of Chen's house, but the people inside.

Through these days, the lifeless feeling shown by those servants and their unwavering reaction to death, Shen Changqing made an extremely bold guess——

If there were no accidents, the people in Chen's house should have died long ago.

As expected, Shu Xin's next words just confirmed this point.

"It took me several years to get to know the 'Master' and receive his advice before I found Chen's house, but when I came here, I found that all the people in Chen's house had died, they had become Ghost, you can only move around in Chen's house, and you are the only one left alive among these people."

The Li family had previously told Shen Changqing that the Chen family used to go out often and were happy to socialize, but all of them closed their doors overnight.

A big family like the Chen family would suddenly come to this remote place with their whole family, probably to avoid the enemy.

That day happened to be Cheng Haiyan's first birthday party, and there was a mixed crowd of people who came to Chen's house, and there might be some people with malicious intentions.

On the same day, an accident happened in Chen's house. Except for the one-year-old Cheng Haiyan who escaped, everyone else died, and Chen's house was completely turned into a haunted house.

With nostalgia for life and concern for Cheng Haiyan, coupled with the exuberant aura of this mountain, their souls did not dissipate, but lingered in the Chen family, continuing to operate everything.

Ghosts are different from demons, they are not powerful evil spirits, and it is very difficult for them to leave the Chen residence.

Whether it was giving the outside facade to the Li family, or trying to maintain a normal situation in front of Shen Changqing and the others, it was all to cover up in front of Cheng Haiyan and outsiders.

It's just that the dead and the living are different after all, and many details can be reflected. For example, the eldest and second young masters of the Chen family are still unmarried. For example, after obtaining someone else's human skin, which should be for the happiness of ordinary people, they can use it to continue living. down.

If a normal person has been skinned, how can he continue to live in the skin of another opposite sex, and even his voice and body have changed?

Unless, there is something abnormal about him.

"They learned about my reason for coming, and mistakenly thought that Monk Chen had a daughter outside. They were afraid that Cheng Haiyan would lose my protection, so they chose to dress him up as a girl," Shu Xin said with a smile on her face. With a wry smile, "It's all my fault. I wish I had made things clear."

But this can't be all her fault. After all, the Chen family at that time would not trust her rashly, and it was reasonable to suspect that she had other plans.

And Shuxin's arrival relieved the urgent need of the Chen family.She peeled off their human skin for these ghosts to disguise as ordinary people, so that they can appear in the sun and have shadows under their feet.

It's just that those human skins are difficult to maintain, and there will always be a day when they will fail.As a result, those servants gradually disappeared, reincarnated and never returned.

When Kang Le entered the game, he was terrified when he saw Shu Xin peeling off her human skin, and subconsciously thought that Shu Xin was harming the original owner, which could be regarded as a misleading game to the players.

Not only that, but in fact the entire background of this game is extremely misleading. There are so many plots of intrigue and revenge, which makes it hard for them to imagine that the seemingly cruel and ruthless monsters originally value love and righteousness, but in the weird and gloomy Chen Zhai, But she was guarded by those Chen family members with incomparable warmth.

Under the fear of death and elimination, few players have the rationality to think about whether the NPC's position is good or bad. Even Shen Changqing, an outsider, has no objection to Kang Le's judgment before he is enlightened.

When Shuxin did this at the beginning, maybe she just saw that the soul of the original owner was about to dissipate, so she decided to peel it off for him so that she could send him to reincarnation.

Fortunately, the old Taoist priest who appeared later discovered that he was already a new soul, so he couldn't bear it, so he saved him and taught him how to put on other people's human skin.

However, the old Taoist also knew that Shu Xin did not harm anyone in Chen Zhai, so he didn't want to take care of Chen Zhai's affairs, and left after saying "there is another secret".

Based on the existing situation, Shen Changqing guessed that the Chen family members who will change their skins are almost all people whose time has come and they really can't stay any longer.

This was the case with the original owner of the human skin on Kang Le's body, and after Kang Le changed into her skin, even with the help of the old Taoist priest, it could only support him for four days at most.

"Your parents, as well as those servants, are already hard to sustain," Shuxin said softly at the end, "I got the secret method from the 'master' to keep them in the world, but my mana It can't last for a long time... They have been worrying about your illness, and hope that you can have someone they can rely on..."

She paused, and said, "Just now, after they saw you entering the bridal chamber, they left."

This morning, Shen Changqing can still recall the pale face of Mrs. Chen and Mrs. Chen.

In the past few days, after they found out that he could heal Haiyan, they showed great enthusiasm for him, and after hastily preparing for the wedding and worshiping, they found excuses to leave in a hurry.

Seeing that their only concern was finally not to worry about their future life, they let go of their obsessions and happily reincarnated.

Shuxin was also planning to leave at first, but she found the Buddhist beads in Shen Changqing's hand, and felt something was wrong, only later did she discover that Cheng Haiyan was actually a man.

It turned out that all of this was a huge misunderstanding, and the marriage between two men was so deviant in ancient times.With no choice, Shuxin had no choice but to take them out of the wedding room at last, and finally confessed everything about Chen's house, about the love and protection of those ghosts.

This can be regarded as a different kind of test, if Shen Changqing cannot accept this fact, she will take Cheng Haiyan away.

Fortunately, after hearing all this, Shen Changqing didn't show much strange expression.

Shuxin smiled at them, and then turned into a cloud of white mist, and quickly drifted away.

After fulfilling Chen Mingshi's commission and telling all the truth clearly, she should also leave.

Now it seems that this little Taoist priest Shen and Cheng Haiyan are in love with each other, there is no barrier between them, and she doesn't need to stop her.

Under the eyes of the two, she flew to other places quickly, and finally disappeared in a vast forest.

On the other hand, Cheng Haiyan gradually accepted the truth after going through the initial grief.

In the days and nights spent with the Chen family, it is impossible for him not to find clues.

It's just that he chose to ignore it.

Shen Changqing remembers that at the very beginning, he discovered that Cheng Haiyan was actually pretending to be sick. He didn't know why at the time, but now that he thinks about it, maybe Cheng Haiyan did this partly because he was affected by the ghost's Yin energy and his body was really weak. And the other part is to hope that they can stay for a few more days.

He knew they were going to leave sooner or later, and he didn't want them to go that fast.

[Congratulations to the host, the background cracking rate of this game has reached 100%, do you want to leave the game immediately? 】

Following Cheng Haiyan's gaze, Shen Changqing looked in the direction of Chen's house, and found that it was far away. Looking again, the outside of Chen's house was always covered by a layer of black fog.

But now, the white sunlight pierced through the hazy fog and gradually dispersed them.The dense branches that once made people feel uncomfortable moved with the wind, and the dark green leaves reflected vibrant colors in the sun.

This is the place where Cheng Haiyan once lived.

Here, although he has limited mobility and status, he is not depressed.

According to the setting of this A-level game, their players should have a headache, but Cheng Haiyan has taken a fancy to Shen Changqing and wants to marry him.

Taking advantage of this momentum, Shen Changqing got in touch with more situations, and thus was able to learn a lot of inside information from Shuxin, and successfully cleared the game.

"Get out."

Taking a last look at Cheng Haiyan, Shen Changqing sighed and said to the system.

Even though Shen Changqing still has a little regret for not being able to successfully enter the bridal chamber, but in the game, they can actually be regarded as a complete marriage.

In order to get a chance to be with Cheng Haiyan in real life, he can't stay longer in the game.

After saying those two words, Cheng Haiyan felt everything and glanced at him.

Shen Changqing is like this... is she going to leave?

Although he was reluctant, he smiled quite relieved.

Cheng Haiyan had a premonition that they would meet again in the future.
