Normal people don't procrastinate when they knock on the door. In contrast, the knock on the door was lifeless and a little weird.

The faces of the three of them became very subtle.Yu Ling added: "No attack ability."

Accompanied by the sound of the dead body knocking on the door, Shu Shi imagined the scene, and instantly got goosebumps all over his body.

"It's not good for him to knock outside all the time, the sound is so uncomfortable to hear." Li Hao said.

He felt that what the dead body knocked on was not the door, but the drumbeat of death.

Yu Ling glanced at him and said, “I don’t mind if you have the ability to drive him away.”

Li Hao thought for a while, then changed his words with flickering eyes: "This is not very good, everyone has rested in peace, and I will not let his body go."

Yu Ling: "..."

Li Hao cleared his throat and changed the subject: "About the next three days, do you have any solutions?"

Yu Ling was too lazy to speak. When he glanced at Shu, Li Hao followed suit.

Regarding the task, Shu Shi can't act too naive, and now is the right time to talk about it occasionally.

"I haven't considered other methods for the time being. We plan to go to the housekeeper to make wood carvings instead of real people."

Luo Zhan answered: "It takes too long for a wood carving to be completed, and it may be too late to carve it as meticulously as the housekeeper."

"Yes." Shu Shi said, "So we are going to do it ourselves. It doesn't require exquisiteness, as long as the shape is similar. It treats us as a toy, and we will make the 'toy' a real toy."

Li Hao was not sure: "Is it possible to hide it like this?"

Yu Ling said: "The instruction given by the task system is to chase toys, not to kill lives."

Shu Shi continued to explain, but the rhythm of knocking on the door outside suddenly became faster and heavier, making it impossible to ignore.

"Why don't I go and solve it, it's too noisy." Li Hao stood up and wanted to open the door.

Before he took a few steps, Yu Ling stopped him: "Don't go, it's here."

Li Hao was taken aback for a moment, and quickly realized who "it" refers to.He stopped where he was, holding his breath, but didn't hear anything.

Seeing the obvious confusion on his friend's face, Shu Shi said, "We can't stay here anymore, let's go downstairs."

Shu Shi and the three of them left the bed, and Li Hao also temporarily changed his route and followed the main force.Li Hao doesn't trust Yu Ling easily, but he definitely trusts Shu Shi.

Dead corpses beckon ghosts, and the rapid knocking on the door urges them to move faster.

When they came to the pillar, Li Hao and Luo Li grabbed the thick rope and jumped directly, but Yu Ling didn't move much.

"You first, pay attention." Yu Ling's voice still had a miraculous effect of calming people's hearts. He took the rope and wrapped it around Shu Shi's arm a few times, "Be careful of the pillars, close your eyes and jump, it only takes a few seconds." Then he took the rope and wrapped it around himself.

Shu Shi stepped on the edge of the wall, feeling his body was going weak, he moved his lips: "I..."

He hasn't said it yet, and he can't say it.

On the surface, Shu Shi's fear was hidden without any trace, but as long as he held his hand, he could feel him trembling.

He didn't take the initiative, so Yu Ling started first.

He clasped his hands together, one palm was warm and the other was cold.

Yu Ling warmed him up for a while before letting go, and said when he withdrew, "Be obedient."

Shu Shi looked at the sky again, did his mental work, and was ready to close his eyes and do it.

"Jump." Yu Ling's voice rang in his ears, just as he stepped out.

"call out--"

The feeling of weightlessness invaded the brain in an instant, and if it wasn't for the support of a rope, Shu Shi felt that he could directly crash.

Yu Ling jumped up, swung into the room, let go of the rope decisively, and landed firmly on the ground.

Shu Shi hasn't come down yet.

"boom!"

There was a shock upstairs, and ghosts came.

Yu Ling faced the wall and shouted upwards: "Jump!"

Shu Shi was still hanging in the air, pulling the rope with one hand and supporting the pillar with the other.He also heard the sound of the wooden door smashing to the ground, and knew that if he didn't jump, he would be discovered by ghosts.

At the critical moment of life and death, guts can no longer control his actions.

Shu Shi closed his eyes desperately, thinking that the worst would be a fall, which would be better than death.

The moment he let go and jumped in, Yu Ling took a step forward, caught him impartially, and staggered due to the impact.

Li Hao and Luo Yan looked at the posture of the two of them from behind, holding back their words and unable to speak.

This is a really good dance.

If they hadn't watched Shu Shi jump down with their own eyes, they would have thought that they were hugging and hugging very tightly.

Yu Ling put his left arm around Shu Shi's waist, and his right hand hugged Shu Shi's back, and their heads were just staggered.Ignoring the surrounding environment, the scene of the two handsome guys embracing is actually quite eye-catching.

Shu Shi carefully opened his eyes, and what he saw was Li Hao's strange expression.

With a soft sigh in his ear, he was put down, and the owner of the sigh said, "You are so heavy."

"Are you okay?" Shu Shi asked after looking him up and down.He felt like they almost fell off just now.

"No." Yu Ling squeezed his shoulders, "You can't kill me with your weight. What about you?"

Shu Shi paused for a few seconds before realizing that Yu Ling was asking him if he was okay.

He hammered his leg, smiled and shook his head and said, "I'm fine, it's fine."

"Really." Yu Ling lowered his eyelids and glanced at the hem of his clothes.

"Cough!" Li Hao kindly reminded, "Come here quickly, be careful of ghosts."

Now is not the time to care about each other, there is still a big hidden danger overhead.

The ghost entered the room, which was empty.The dead bodies around him looked extraordinarily petite against it.

The corpse has the same eyes as a ghost, and its actions are no different from ordinary people.He tilted his head, looking like a child discovering a new toy.

He went to the cabinet, raised the handle of the knife and knocked on the cabinet door.

Only two hits and no knocking.

With a wave of the ghost's claw, a deep scratch appeared on the cabinet door, revealing the contents inside.

The dead body began to walk around the room again, but nothing was found.He never raised the flat knife in his hand again, and his black eyes showed innocence and confusion.

The ghost rolled his eyes and went straight to the empty wall.The fragrance in the night is the way to guide it.

At this time, the four people who had just landed on the first floor hid in the only shelter in the room.

"It's so crowded." Li Hao spoke in a breathy voice, and he was leaning against Yu Ling's back.

"Shut up." Yu Ling responded in the same way, his words were full of warnings.

The cabinet is not small, but it is still too much to hide four people at the same time.

Shu Shi had no place to rest his hands, so he could only lean on his side and gently support the cabinet wall.This is not so uncomfortable, he will suffocate if the whole person is pressed against the cabinet.

The uninterrupted sound of flapping wings on the first and second floors told them that the ghost was in the air at this time, and the four of them had no time to worry about their posture.

After a while, the sound was far away.Several people breathed a sigh of relief, especially Shu Shi.He had just jumped from the second floor, and he hadn't slowed down yet, and he didn't want to stage a life-and-death escape at all.

Push open the cabinet door, temporarily liberated.

"That dead body must have brought the ghosts here. Why does this space have a notification function?" Li Hao didn't think it was dirty, and sat directly on the dusty bed.

Shu Shi was no longer surprised, and casually made up: "Maybe someday it will have its own hunting function."

"...Don't say it, I beg you."

Li Hao was really scared. He used to do missions with Shu Shi. Shu Shi's mouth was so good that it didn't work.

"Notify the dead body." Luo Zhan concluded, "However, how did he judge our location?"

"Don't worry about this, just know that he can find us. The correct way to avoid being approached by ghosts is to kill him." Li Hao said, "If we can't deal with him, we will be dealt with by ghosts sooner or later."

"He's already dead," Yu Ling said, "Can you let him die again?"

"Well... this is still up for debate."

Shu Shi said: "It doesn't have to be to kill him, just make him silent."

The four of you said something to each other, and basically set the direction of action in the future.

However, the weather was not good, and the familiar knock on the door sounded again.

There was no other movement on Shu Shi's face, and his heart gradually collapsed.

"Come again?!" Li Hao wanted to go out and have a fight.

Listening to the voice, Luo Zhan frowned slightly: "It seems that something is different."

Yu Ling asked Luo Ran, "Is the door locked?"

Luo Yan shook his head.The situation at the time didn't allow them to think so much, and they didn't even think about locking the door when they were safe.

"Help find a rope." After Yu Ling finished speaking, he walked towards the door.

Shu Shi followed him with his eyes, and saw the moment the door opened, a cold white hand stretched out from outside, holding a sharp knife and stabbing Yu Ling's heart!

Yu Ling's reaction was extremely fast, and he immediately grabbed the corpse's wrist tightly and dragged her into the room.

The dead body was captured from behind, Yu Ling could not be seen, but Shu Shi and Li Hao could be seen alive.Also, they can see her.

This is the person who died on the fifth floor this morning. She was what she was when she died, and she is what she is now.

Looking at her ferocious face, Li Hao patted Shu Shi belatedly, and sighed: "Brother, your mouth is really open."

Isn't this the built-in hunting function?

Shu Shi: "..."

Yu Ling dragged the dead body with a hoarse voice to the closet, just as Luo ran over to fetch the rope.

He opened the cabinet door, ruthlessly stuffed the dead body in, and tied the two handles of the cabinet together with a rope before she got up, completely locking the door.

The movements are done with ease and in one go.

Yu Ling glanced at the astonished expressions of the three people, and wrote lightly: "They are all people who have seen big scenes." It means that there is no need to make a fuss.

There was a scratching and knocking sound in the cabinet, and it stopped after a while.

"She should have come out of the butler's secret room." Luo Zhan picked up the knife on the ground, "Dead corpses can attack living people, and they can also attract ghosts. Will there be one more dead corpse like this for every death?"

If everyone who died turned into an active corpse, their survival would be greatly challenged.

"I just found a way to deal with ghosts, and there are more dead bodies." Li Hao looked up to the sky and sighed, "Where do I get so much energy!"

There are ghosts in the front and dead bodies in the back, and their morale has been hit hard like never before.

Dealing with ghosts unarmed is already difficult, and now there are a few more dead bodies moving around...their situation is even more difficult.

"In fact, there is an absolutely safe place in the castle." Yu Ling crossed his fingers and said against his chin, "but it must be established under the condition that NPCs will not actively attack."

Several people thought of the secret room at the same time.

"Now, as long as one more person dies, there will be one more dead body. The dead body will attack us, and will also report our location to attract ghosts." Shu Shi gathered the available information together, and expanded and explained Yu Ling's point of view. , "Ghosts cause death, and the dead turn into corpses... The castle is full of dangers. If the butler does not have the ability to attack, we can hide in the secret room, and ghosts can't get in anyway. The secret room is the absolute safe point."

"But..." They always have to prepare for the worst.

Yu Ling took his words: "On the contrary, ghosts, NPCs, and dead bodies are all vicious, and the chance of survival is slim. Everyone can only keep hiding."

Survive in the cracks and wait until the end of the mission.

"Currently the nature of the NPC is unknown, so you can't put yourself in danger." Li Hao said solemnly.

If it is a vicious NPC, it is very likely that they will be wiped out if they find it.The housekeeper is the key point of the mission, it can be a cracking point, or it can be a fatal point.

"For the sake of safety, I think it's better to observe and observe, and it's better not to take risks." Luo Zhan also said, after all, it is human instinct to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.

Yu Ling had no intention of taking risks for the time being, so he said, "That's it, let's see tomorrow."

Although there are still many details that have not been discussed, the few people have no energy and just want to stay quietly for a while.

"Has it come..." A trembling female voice was crying.

The handsome man next to her frowned and moved to the side until he touched the cabinet wall before he felt relieved.

The door of the room that was about to be smashed slammed, and the surroundings were suddenly quiet.

"Woo..." The woman covered her mouth to keep her voice from coming out, but she couldn't control the frequency of her body trembling.

The dead body with a pale face slowly walked into the room, with its black eyes open, it didn't know where to look.The giant bird followed behind him.

He walked over to the bed and stood in front of the wardrobe.

The dead body tilted its head, and a smile suddenly appeared on Hao Hao's bloodless face.He smiled and raised the upside-down knife in his hand.

"Du, Du." The hilt of the knife hit the cabinet door, making a steady sound.

This is telling the people inside: I found you.

The giant bird raised its dark red sharp claws, and in an instant there was a scratch on the cabinet door.

There was a bit of blood coagulation in the sunken claw marks, peeping in through the broken opening, one could see a pair of eyes full of horror.

The woman curled up in a corner with her head in her arms, screaming and crying like crazy.

"Bah—" the giant bird scratched open the cabinet door with its claws, and the sharp sound hurt people's eardrums.

The man leaned against the cabinet wall, watching the gap gradually widen, and the only hope left in his heart was bit by bit eroded by despair.

The next day, the warm sun climbed up to the sky, covering the castle with gentle light.

Shu Shi was the first to wake up.He looked at the sky, and felt that it was still early, and there should be time for breakfast.

He woke up Yu Ling, and then Li Haoluo.

"Why did you fall asleep..." Li Hao said dazedly while scratching his hair.

This is exactly the same as what Shu Shi thought when he first woke up.

Shu Shi laughed, and said, "Let's go, go to the hall to find something to eat."

"I'm so sleepy, I want to sleep again—" Li Hao yawned, and Luo Zhan stood up, but he lay down again.

He turned over, paused for a few seconds, then rolled left and right reluctantly, expressing his reluctance all over his body.

Thanks to them turning over the sheets when they were resting, otherwise Li Hao would have a mouth full of ashes, so he wouldn't have to eat breakfast, and he would be full if he choked.

"But I'm also very hungry—" Li Hao said in a drawn-out tone.

Choosing to eat or sleep is a century-old problem.

Yu Lingcai didn't care if someone fell in love with the bed, and just said, "Let's go."

Luo Zhan paid attention to the dead bodies in the cabinet and asked, "What should I do with the ones in the cabinet?"

The thick rope was wound around and around, and a very complicated knot was tied. The dead body inside was in an unknown state.

Yu Ling said, "Leave it to the housekeeper."

He tied the knot casually, and he doesn't bother to untie it now, since they are dead bodies anyway, locked and unable to escape.

Luo Zhan: "Okay."

"Should we go directly to the housekeeper after dinner?" Shu Shi asked.

Whether to find a butler is secondary, the main reason is that he wants to take some time to rest.

"En." Yu Lingying paused and said, "Go to his secret room and prepare the materials. You can rest for a while."

"Okay." Shu Shi readily agreed.

In the hall, most people were listless, some were drowsy, and some fell asleep directly on the table; only a small number of people were no different, as if they had passed an ordinary night.

But anyone who can survive to this time has more or less strength in him, whether it is force value or luck value.

The clothes of the four of them were dirty, as if they had rolled around in ashes.No one likes to be stared at all the time in this situation. Shu Shi felt uncomfortable from the moment he sat down, but the other three turned a blind eye and remained calm as usual, which made something wrong with him.

Li Hao bit his chopsticks, counted the actual number of people while picking up the dishes, and said mysteriously: "Three are missing again."

The number of people dropped sharply. He thought that there were still people who hadn't come, but when he looked again, he found that the chairs in front of the round table were already full, and except for the four of them, there were only a handful of people left.

There are only five left.

It is not a good sign that three people died in one night, which means that there may be three more familiar faces in the dead bodies tonight.

Shu Shi took a glance and found that the other people were covered with ashes, and a few people had blood on their bodies.It is not difficult to see that they have all run to empty rooms and have been chased by ghosts.

"There are three days left." Shu Shi whispered.

He was talking to Li Hao, and he was also reminding himself.

For three days, even if one dies in one day, there is a high probability that it will be him.

"There are too many novices this time, and it's hard for them to survive." Li Hao explained in a tone that tended to be indifferent, "Come to the intermediate level without finishing much at the elementary level, of course it will be a dead end."

Shu Shi's hand trembled imperceptibly.
