It is strictly forbidden to pay for the ticket after getting on the bus

That scene quickly flashed through Lin Jiu's mind, he shivered in fright, and turned his head sternly: "Don't forget, you share a room with me, and she will definitely find you when she finds me!"

Si Qi smiled mysteriously: "But I have a baby for self-defense."

Bai Jue's eyes froze slightly, self-defense baby?

He suddenly remembered that when he was in the clothing store before, facing the female ghost, Si Qi's fingertips had a flash of light, could it be that?

Then...Will Bai Luochuan have it too?

Bai Jue slightly turned his head to look at him, the man's eyelashes were like crow's feathers, lined with porcelain white skin, as if he couldn't get enough of it, but he couldn't see it through.

Sensing his gaze, Bai Luochuan looked over suspiciously, and smiled at him.

Bai Jue lowered his head, suppressing the confusion and uneasiness in his heart, and walked all the way to the school he discovered yesterday.

The size of the school is small, and it looks like a courtyard when you enter from the main entrance, but it is much smaller. There are only three rooms, one is the main room, and there are some long wooden tables neatly arranged in it. All are study rooms.

It is a veritable "study room", with nothing but books, densely packed in rows.There are no bedrooms and no kitchen.

"Fortunately, the characters they used to write with brushes used to be much bigger." Bai Luochuan looked at the room full of papers and sighed deeply, "otherwise it would have taken us so much time to flip through the pages. "

They stayed here during the daytime of the third and fourth days, and in the blink of an eye, it was the afternoon of the fourth day, and there was not much time left.

Plates, horses, children, sticks, clothes, drawing paper... the clues are still like pieces of a jigsaw puzzle that cannot be put together.

There is always a piece missing in the middle.

Si Qi rubbed her sore eyes, and wailed: "When I was studying, if my mother had the energy, she would have been admitted to Qingbei! It's impossible to sleep on that old school bus, and it's impossible to come here after waking up. The hell is coming!"

Lin Jiu also sighed: "I went climbing with my friends, my feet slipped and rolled down, and I was in the train when I opened my eyes. I thought I had crossed, and I don't know why the train chose people..."

Si Qi laughed loudly and patted his thin shoulder: "You will know the reason when you should know the reason, but you still climb mountains with your small body?"

Lin Jiu moved to the side twice, and retorted: "I just want to climb mountains to exercise...You are smaller than me, what right do you have to say about me?"

"Damn!" Si Qi was furious, "Erjiu, you actually compared your figure with a girl?"

Lin Jiu: "...I didn't."

"You don't have anything?" Si Qi was reluctant, with a teasing smile in her eyes, "You didn't compare yourself to a girl or did you not regard me as a girl?"

Lin Jiu was a little confused when asked, and he answered without soul: "None...none..."

Si Qi: "..."

"Hey!" Bai Luochuan's voice was pleasantly surprised, "I seem to have found the diary of this Mr. Xuetang. Is it a diary or something else? Notes? Anyway, it should be something he wrote himself."

Si Qi really didn't want to read the words: "Then what did he write? Please repeat it."

Bai Luochuan read quickly, his expression was normal when he turned the first few pages, but he was a little surprised when he turned to the back, staring at the book thoughtfully, frowning slightly.

"What did you write?" Bai Jue stopped turning the pages of the book and walked towards him.

"Look for yourself, it's really inhumane..." Bai Luochuan handed him the diary, pinching the space between his brows slightly tired.

Bai Jue glanced at ten lines at a glance, roughly meaning that this was an ordinary village in the past, and the villagers were self-sufficient and lived a decent life.

But later, due to some natural disasters and other reasons, food became less and less, and even food and clothing became a problem.

But at that time, people had no awareness of population control, and there were no contraceptive measures. Almost every household had several children. With more and more children, food shortages became more severe.

The elderly parents in the family value boys very much, beat and scold girls at every turn, and treat them like coolies.

Gradually, it became fashionable to sell daughters in the town.

Some richer families bought the girl back, which has many uses.

This kind of behavior spread for a while, and everyone was forced to make a living, and no one objected. After a period of time, more and more people thought it was normal.

Even some families that haven't sold their girls for the time being seem to just treat them as food reserves, and their clothes are leftover old ones, and some of those who were bought back don't even give them clothes to wear.

In order to prevent them from escaping to the outside of the town, they are tied with ropes to the alleys or small courtyards behind the houses, just like animals.

If you accidentally become pregnant, you will give birth to it. If the baby is a boy, you will raise it. If the baby is a girl... the baby will not even have the opportunity to do coolies, and the people in the town can't bear it. Do it yourself, tie the child to the only horse in the town, and the horse will carry the child to the old forest in the back mountain, throw it off, and run back by itself.

And the innocent baby became the food of the wild beasts in the back mountain, which also allowed the wild beasts to fill their stomachs and stop coming down the mountain to harm the town.

But after a long time, the town seemed to be cursed, the food has not become abundant again, there are fewer women who can give birth to children, and the life of the town residents is not good.

In order to maintain daily food and satiate the increasing appetite of the beasts in the back mountain, even some seven or eight-year-old girls were put on horseback and rushed towards the road of no return to the back mountain...

Lin Jiu and Si Qi felt chills down their spines when they heard this, they had never heard of such an inhumane and cruel thing, let alone being killed by their own relatives...

"Are they human!? Don't they feel guilty for letting the horse carry them?" Lin Jiu was furious, "They didn't tie the child on the horse with their own hands!"

"Of course they're not human, so they've all become ghosts now." Bai Luochuan rubbed his chin.

"What happened after that?" Si Qi asked.

"After throwing a nine-year-old girl to the back mountain again, the horse became a little uncontrollable, as if it had been cursed, and kicked several people in a row. After that day, monsters began to appear at night. Many people lost their lives because of this..." Bai Jue read.

"And then? Gone?" Si Qi asked.

"The back is blank, nothing to write." Bai Jue turned it over for her to read.

"Probably dead." Bai Luochuan said slowly, "No chance to write again?"

"Let's make a bold guess," Si Qi said, pointing up a finger, "This is the revenge of those souls who died in the back mountain, and then the entire town was slaughtered, forming the current situation." This ghost town!"

"It should be..." Lin Jiu was a little absent-minded.

"Don't be discouraged Erjiu," Bai Jue said, "This is a game similar to an escape room. Everything in the background events is set, not real."

"Yes, yes, yes...don't be too real, Erjiu."

After reading the materials for a whole day, Bai Luochuan's mental and physical strength was exhausted. Bai Luochuan's face became a little pale, and he felt a lot of chills. His body felt cold, and he involuntarily leaned against Bai Jue.

Wasn't this person so afraid of the cold before?Bai Jue frowned, hesitated for a moment, and stretched out his hand to pinch Bai Luochuan's wrist.

The latter raised his head and smiled at him, just about to speak, when he suddenly thought of something and called out, "Fuck, what time is it?"

"Now..." Bai Jue was stunned for a moment, and his face became serious, "It's almost five o'clock."

As soon as the words fell, a different style of 'Mr. Xuetang Ghost' appeared in the yard at the door of the study.

Why is it a different style?

Because his appearance is very different from the other battered ghosts in this town.

Except for the obvious scars on the body, the insteps are vertically down, the toes are facing the ground, about ten centimeters from the ground.

He was neatly dressed in white clothes, his white hair was combed meticulously, and he looked very bookish.

The figure is translucent, and in this spooky town, there is an air of immortality.

"Damn it, you're so stylish." Si Qi looked at the 'Ghost of Mr. Xuetang' half-floating in the air with a look of amazement.

"Is this... another type of NPC?" Bai Luochuan asked silently. After reading the written materials for a day, his head was a little dazed.

"This is Bai Wuchang who came to pick you up." Seeing his dull expression, Bai Jue said jokingly, his heart warmed.

"...Did Hei Wuchang not come? There is only one person who is too ignorant." Bai Luochuan was very calm.

"Would you like Black and White Impermanence, Meng Po, Yama to come and greet you, where's your face?" Bai Jue took a step towards the window.

"The face is in the heart." Bai Luochuan rubbed his stiff fingers.

"Uh... okay," Bai Jue looked out the window, and the 'gatekeepers' of every household appeared again, "It's their activity time now, so we have to go back quickly, otherwise no one will be there at night." Throwing a plate at the door, without praying for blessings, I don’t know what the consequences will be.”

"The consequence is naturally that the pretty little sister eats it as supper." Si Qi said carelessly, "I will help her sprinkle cumin on Erjiu."

Lin Jiu: "...crazy."

"So the story of this town has basically been deciphered." Bai Luochuan looked at Mr. Gui, who had not acted, and frowned, "Where is the ticket? There is no information related to the ticket."

"Is it possible to wipe out all the wronged souls? Impossible, they are all dead, how else can they be killed?" Lin Jiu said.

"Go out first." Bai Jue felt a little uneasy, since the Mr. Xuetang ghost only moved from the yard to the door after it appeared, and then remained still.

What does it mean?

Block the door?
