In an escape game...

Chapter 3 Psychic Town

"Tick tock...tick tock..." The sound of water leaking followed one after another, and the water droplets seemed to be hitting the metal, becoming heavier and faster.

The vague black shadow outside the door swayed, and a bleeding hand entered through the door without warning.

"Pa-ta." A lump of meat fell into a pool of blood, splashing a drop of blood, and Yun Xubai's heart beat hard.

Even though he was far away, he felt that the blood splashed on his body, and it was bloody and tangy.

Going through the door with bare hands, the murderer is naturally not a human being.

"Tick tock...tick tock..." A head with wet and cold hair appeared above the bloody hand, and the black shadow changed from virtual to real, and the whole thing squeezed into the room.

She was wearing a scarlet cheongsam, her bare feet were hanging on the pool of blood, her head was lowered, only half of her pale face was exposed, and sticky blood dripped down her slender legs.

Knowing that there might be vengeful spirits in the dungeon and seeing them with his own eyes are completely different things, Yun Xubai was greatly shocked.

He quickly adjusted his mentality and silently recited in his heart "believe in science", "prosperity, democracy, civilization and harmony..."

He calmed down a bit, and turned his gaze back to Wraith.

After a closer look, he found that Wraith was still holding something in his hand. It was sticky and thin, very long, and lay softly on the ground, as if... It was a piece of human skin!

Just peeled off, still steaming fresh human skin.

With this image and this skin, it is not difficult to guess that she is one of the core NPCs in the dungeon of "Spiritual Town", the widow Li who was skinned and thrown into the well in the innkeeper's mouth.

Widow Li didn't move, her cold eyes stuck to Yun Xubai's body through the wet and cold black hair.

She didn't move, and Yun Xubai didn't dare to move, he was very vigilant in his heart.

One ghost and one person, one floating and one sitting, silently confronting each other.

Two drops of cold sweat oozed from Yun Xubai's forehead, flowing down his cheeks to his chin, itching slightly, he couldn't resist rubbing it.

As time passed by, Widow Li suddenly stretched out a sharp and thin hand...to slap her arm.

"Buzz..." A mosquito nimbly escaped from her palm and flew away.

Unexpectedly, they all turned into ghosts, and the instinct to beat mosquitoes has not disappeared.

This small episode eased the tense and anxious atmosphere, Yun Xubai decided to take the initiative to attack, his phoenix eyes slightly curved.A stretched and clean smile appeared on his face.

The shallow dimples on the cheeks weakened the sense of aggression brought by the deep facial features, making his own detached temperament warm and clear.

He showed the local tyrant's golden scissors in his hand, and opened his mouth with a barber's invitation: "Do you want a haircut for pretty girls? The new store opens, washing, cutting and blowing starts at 9999, and there are no discounts on all jobs."

Widow Lee blocked the exit, and he had nowhere to escape.

The instructions for use of the novice props indicate that they can earn commissions, and this "commission" may be a turning point.

Widow Li touched her wet hair when she heard the words, as if her heart was moved.

Yun Xubai took advantage of the situation to pursue and continued his efforts: "Intimate one-on-one service, creating exclusive styles, making you the prettiest ghost in town."

Widow Li clutched the cheongsam and walked slowly on tiptoe.

Every time Widow Li took a step, Yun Xubai's nerves tensed up. He kept smiling, but in his heart he was thinking about plan B - what posture should he take to run away after the deal fails.

Widow Li took a few steps, stopped at the edge of the pool of blood, and did not take another step. The bloody hand stretched forward, and the palm dissipated in the air, as if swallowed by an invisible force.

She withdrew her hand suddenly, and a new palm grew on the broken wrist.She tried to stretch out one foot again, and the sole of the foot was also swallowed.

Seeing this scene, Yun Xubai guessed that Widow Li could not go any further because she might be restricted by certain conditions.

The cooling time of novice props is 24 hours, and they must be used wisely every time. Now that their lives are not in danger, Yun Xubai hurriedly "sees off".

The smile in his eyes was even bigger, and his tone was gentle: "If the guest is inconvenient, please come back..."

Widow Li withdrew her broken leg, took a deep look at Yun Xubai, and uttered a hoarse voice: "I'll come again next time..."

Widow Li put the human skin on her body, tied a bow with her arms, turned around and passed through the door, and disappeared.

The first customer turned around and left, and the first transaction ended in failure, but Yun Xubai heaved a sigh of relief.

The smile on her lips disappeared, and her phoenix eyes turned cold again.

He sat quietly and listened to the movement for a while, and after confirming that there was nothing abnormal, he turned on the backlight of the phone to shine on the wooden door.

There are two blood-red handprints printed on the frosted glass, and the zigzag traces are full of blood. Looking down, there is a bloody heart lying in a pool of blood on the floor.

The lingering smell of blood filled the entire space.

A trace of disgust flashed in his eyes, Yun Xubai turned off the backlight of the phone, wiped off the thin sweat on his forehead, ignored the annoying smell of blood and the corpse outside the door, and went back to sleep.

When it was daylight, Yun Xubai got up.

Opening the door, it was no surprise to see a skinless male corpse with its stomach ripped apart.

In the second half of the night, the rain became heavier and heavier, and the corridor was seriously leaking. There was a shallow layer of water, which was stained red by blood.Broken clothes were piled on one side in a mess.

Yun Xubai frowned, avoided the corpse and blood, and walked to the pile of broken clothes.

He got up so early to clarify a problem - if the deceased is also a player, there should be novice props, he wants to know what will happen to the props after the player dies.

Using scissors to pick up the clothes for inspection, Yun Xubai found a round black stone in his shirt pocket.

Holding the stone in his hand, a calm reminder sounded in his mind:

[The first-timer "Baba" got the ownerless prop "Rock Paper Scissors", which can only be used in novice tasks. ]

[Instructions for use: Bind this item, you can play a "rock, paper, scissors" game with the wraith. If you win, you can make a request within the range that the wraith can achieve. If you lose, the item will become invalid. ]

[Instructions for use: 1. You can only play with one wraith at a time. 2. The cooling time is 48 hours. ]

[Beginner "Baba", is the prop "rock-paper-scissors" bound? ]

In other words, after the player dies, the bound props will become unowned props and can be re-bound by other players.

Yun Xubai replied: "Yes."

[The binding is successful, the remaining cooling time of the prop "Rock Paper Scissors": 42 hours. ]

[It is detected that the number of "Baba" props of the beginner > 1, unlock the backpack function, the number of backpack positions: 5. ]

After unlocking the new function, Yun Xubai was a little happy, and immediately tried to access the item.As long as he gives an order in his mind, the props will automatically appear in his hand, which is very convenient.

"The new props are still in the cool-down period, which means that the deceased played a game with Widow Li last night." Yun Xubai thought to himself: "But he lost, so he didn't escape the catastrophe."

He got the heart out of the room, put the clothes back to their original state, and went back to the room lightly, pretending that he hadn't gotten up yet.

Since props can be rebound, they can also be snatched.There are other unknown players in the dungeon, so he has to be more cautious.

After about an hour, people got up one after another, and the door opened one after another.

A new day kicked off with short screams, and then ushered in a small climax amidst everyone's discussions.

"It's dead!!"

"Isn't this a terrible death?"

"Yesterday I heard a knock on the door, but I didn't wake up."

"I didn't hear anything..."

"Someone died in front of the door, and the occupants of this room are really unlucky."

"Isn't the one who died more unlucky? I don't know what will happen if I die here."

Yun Xubai listened to the corner for a while, reckoning it was time to go out and meet these unknown players.She hid the scissors and stone in her sleeves, wiped off the water on the soles of her shoes, combed her hair, and slowly opened the door.

There were a few people standing in the corridor, discussing around the corpse on the ground from a distance. The corridor was spacious, but it didn't seem crowded.

As soon as the door opened, their attention quickly turned to Yun Xubai.

Yun Xubai glanced at the corpse, rolled his eyes, showing a very natural look of fear, and couldn't bear to look away: "What's going on?"

His eyes were downcast, his handsome face showed a bit of pity, and his words and deeds were like a gentle scholar, making people let down their guard unconsciously.

Several players were a little surprised when they saw Yun Xubai's face.

A beautiful young woman smiled at him and asked softly, "Are you a player too?"

The young woman asked again: "You are the closest to the scene of the incident, did you hear anything last night?"

Yun Xubai shook his head: "I fell asleep very early last night and didn't hear anything."
