Dead ex boyfriend suddenly started attacking me

Escape Room-08

"What are you talking about..." Jing Wei's body trembled uncontrollably.

Of course, part of the reason is because of the temperature and deterrent effect brought by the flames that scorched the sea water, but more of it is because of Gu Qi's words.

Jing Wei's gaze met Gu Xi's, and her heart skipped a beat when she looked at those golden eyes with black background.

He knows.Jingwei thought, even though she didn't reveal anything and avoided answering any related questions, he still found out in his own way.

Obviously it seems... just a human being who is so decadent that people feel that throwing it into the debris pile will not be disobedient at all, but this moment brings some kind of oppressive terror to Jingwei.

"What I'm talking about, didn't you hear clearly?" Gu Xi asked, "Isn't this what you want to see? See how much of my power is left, and see if I really became a... waste."

Jingwei's face was unbelievably pale.

A whole piece of sea water had been completely incinerated by the flames while they were talking.It's empty now, and there's nothing there—be it the little girl, the walls, or the interior of the escape room.

Oh no.

Maybe there's still something "something else".

Gu Qi temporarily stopped the conversation with Jingwei, and picked up Yan Chaosheng, who had fallen limply on the ground, with a rather indescribable expression, and let the other party lean on him, barely maintaining a standing posture.

"Hi? Wake up?"

Gu Xi went to pinch Yan Chaosheng's people, but the latter didn't move.If it wasn't for Yan Chaosheng's warm body, smooth breathing, and strong pulse, Gu Qi would have wondered if this guy had died.

He glanced at Yan Chaosheng's face, but still silently pulled him towards him again, delimiting him within his protection range.

No... definitely not because of that face.Gu Xi denied this.

It's just that it's so easy to get the Tao. Are the young celestial masters of the Celestial Masters Association these few years so useless?

Gu Xi couldn't help muttering in his heart.

Jingwei watched his actions with an ugly expression, but he didn't dare to do anything.The atmosphere between the two sides maintained a strange calm for a while, until a sigh with a smile broke the silent confrontation.

"As expected of the strongest among human beings, even though he has retired for many years, he is definitely beyond the reach of ordinary people."

While applauding, the other party came out of the darkness and stood a few meters away from Gu Qi.

This voice inevitably made Gu Xi feel a little upset, especially when his gaze fell down and fell on Yan Chaosheng's face, the feeling was even more intense.

It was as if... Yan Le was by his side.

"It's really not easy to see you, sir." Gu Xi said.

The visitor was wearing a black Tang suit, and the fabric looked extremely soft.It's just that there is a golden mask covering his face, only a pair of eyes are exposed, which completely covers his face, and he can't even see half of it.

Gu Xi just glanced at it, and then began to get angry.

"Why?" He asked, "It's just a skin, and it needs to be so secretive. Are you so shameless?"

The boss of what he said was not polite, but that "sir" was good-tempered and didn't intend to care about it, he just smiled along with Gu Qi's words.

"I made you laugh." He said, "I do have a spare face, so I only wear a mask on weekdays."

"Is it just that you have a spare face?" Gu Xi would never believe it, "Is it because you have no face to see people?"

"That's right."

Facing Gu Xi's undisguised and blatant provocation, "Sir" didn't show even the slightest bit of anger, he just smiled and said: "Perhaps it is true as you said, I am a shameless person who grew up in the gutter What about the shadowy little people inside? But that doesn't matter."

There is one thing to say, his attitude is very good, even to the point of being overly lenient and even conniving.

"Sir" looked at Gu Xi with gentle eyes, as if no matter what the other party did, he would only regard it as a child's prank, then he sighed and forgave the other party with a smile.

However, after being treated like this, Gu Qi became irritable, especially when he heard "Sir" belittled himself in a nonchalant tone, his annoyance reached its peak.

"Enough!" he interrupted "Sir".

"Sir" raised his eyebrows slightly: "Did what I said make you feel unhappy?"

Gu Qi's brows were tightly frowned.

No.

He knew that it was not "Sir"'s problem, but his own problem.

He couldn't tolerate that person's voice saying such self-deprecating words, just like Gu Qi couldn't really do what he said, when he saw Yan Chaosheng with such a face, showing helplessness or Don't be distracted by painful gestures.

For they are so much like feasts—

"It's nothing." Gu Xi finally said, "That's the end of the small talk. Is it my victory to escape this secret room?"

He was eager to get rid of this situation, as if as long as he didn't touch or think about it, he wouldn't be affected by things related to feasts, and he could still deceive himself and live numbly in this world without feasts.

"You are so eager to exchange rewards with me."

"Sir" sighed.

"So you don't want to see me? I thought our conversation...was a good one?"

Seeing Gu Qi's uneasy expression, he smiled lowly: "Okay, since you don't like it, then I won't say it."

"However, the escape from the secret room is not over yet."

Gu Xi's unhappy mood suddenly became worse: "Are you kidding me?"

"Sir" expressed surprise for such a complaint: "How could it be? I have a sincere attitude towards you from the beginning to the end."

"But we have to follow the procedures and rules, don't we?"

"I know what you want to know, but wait a minute, the last step of the escape room is not over yet."

Gu Qi: "...? What process do you have to go through?"

"Sir" then also showed a look of surprise: "Haven't you ever played the escape room?"

Gu Xi was silent.

Playing... I have also played.

But that was already several years ago. Of course, Gu Xi had already completely forgotten the process, and expecting him to remember the specifics was really a test.

Seeing him like this, "Sir" naturally guessed the situation: "After successfully escaping from the secret room, you still need to restore the truth of the entire incident, and finally evaluate the completion of the entire secret room escape according to the degree of restoration. Spend."

"Well... this degree of completion determines how rich your customs clearance rewards are."

Gu Xi's eyes were flat, and he didn't seem to be moved: "Really? How rich can it be?"

"Sir" replied: "I think it is enough to satisfy you. Our store has always paid attention to the service experience for customers, and hopes to provide as much home-like service experience as possible."

It was hard to say whether Gu Xi believed his words or not.He looked at "Sir" for a while with scrutiny, and then let out a "heh".

"How do you need me to restore it?" he asked.

"Sir" laughed, knowing that this meant that Gu Xi was willing to continue the game with him.

"Then let's do it in a question-and-answer format." Perhaps because the wish was fulfilled, the voice of "Sir" sounded slightly satisfied, "First of all, what is the truth behind the whole incident?"

"The neighbor's wife, who had lost her mind, was bewitched by someone and wanted to use her little daughter as a base to raise ghosts. She killed many people, cooked them with their flesh and blood, and fed them to her little daughter."

"Sir" applauded: "The answer is very concise but explained the whole process. Then, the second question, do you think the little girl was voluntary in this process?"

Gu Xi lowered his eyes and looked at the tattered doll he was still holding: "Probably not."

She still cries, screams, struggles, and tries to be a "human being"—no matter the final result, the little girl has worked hard for such a purpose.

"Sir" didn't comment on his answer: "Then...the last question."

"Who do you think is behind all this?"

Gu Xi didn't answer the question right away.

He looked at "Sir" carefully before saying, "Little girl."

"Sir" said "no".

"This is really... an answer that I hadn't expected at all." "Sir" asked, "Are you sure? Special preferential treatment, I can give you a chance to change it?"

Gu Qi: "I'm sure."

He believed in his own judgment, what's more, Gu Xi's eyes had clearly missed the answer to him as early as the very beginning.

The ghost that actually eats people and occupies the little girl's body is level 30.And the level 40 who occasionally appears, but is not malicious, is the real little girl whose soul resides in the doll on weekdays.

She clearly has the ability to resist her mother and devour that ghost, but maybe because she is too young, or because she is used to being manipulated by her mother, she has always been obedient and docile, and has never done anything wrong. any resistance.

Regarding Gu Xi's refusal to cooperate, "Sir" seemed completely disappointed and regretful.

"Okay, okay." The other party sighed, "Then, Jingwei. This is an escape room that you are in charge of, and it's up to you to evaluate it."

Jing Wei Nuonuo walked over from the side, seeming to have some kind of extreme fear of this good-natured, gentle and "Mr."

She tried not to look at "Mr.", but in a strange way.He looked at Gu Qi with eyes that could not be evaluated or described, and then said: "...It's all right."

Gu Xi was not surprised by this result.

The person lying on his shoulder moved, as if he was gradually waking up.Gu Xi paid him some attention, and "Sir" seemed to notice it at the same time.

"It seems that your companion is awake." He asked, "Then the deal between us... Do we need to avoid him?"

What he said was ambiguous, and it was hard to say whether he did it on purpose, as if there were really many shady things between Gu Xi and him.

——At least that's what Yan Chaosheng heard when he woke up.

Yan Chaosheng felt that he was also unlucky.

It's just that after looking back for a while, I was entangled by the ghosts produced in this [world].It was a ghost with hundreds of eyes, and each eye came from a dead person. Yan Chaosheng wondered if they all belonged to the unlucky ones who were killed by the neighbor's wife and fed to the little girl.

The ghost of resentment is not difficult to deal with, even if the man-made ghost is contaminated with too much resentment and blood—it should be.

However, the bad thing about this is that because of the special role of this [jie], Yan Chaosheng's ability as a celestial master is limited.It is very reluctant to say that there is no one out of ten, so the ghosts that could have been easily eradicated have turned into troubles that may threaten their lives.

Yan Chaosheng had to use some methods for this...and when Gu Xi picked him up, his powerless coma was the price he had to pay for this method.

However, this kind of bad luck didn't seem to end. For example, when he woke up, he heard this kind of specious transaction scene, as if some great conspiracy was brewing.

Yan Chaosheng would rather pass out by himself, it's really not the right time to wake up, it's better not to wake up.

"Oh, your companion is awake. What should we do? Our relationship seems to have been discovered."

Gu Qi: "...Are you normal?"

What kind of sudden illness is this.

What could be the relationship between them?If I have to say it, Gu Xi thinks that "Mr." smells delicious, and Liu Huo and Frost Star are about to move.

"Since I answered all the questions correctly, what rewards can I get for clearing the level?"

Compared with the gentleness of "Sir", Gu Xi's attitude can be said to be indifferent.He's almost like one of those uncomprehending straight men of steel who go straight to the end result and ignore everything else.

"A question, how about it?"

"Sir" watched Gu Xi's eyes widen slightly, and added with a smile, as if he was very satisfied with seeing Gu Xi's reaction: "No matter what kind of question you ask, I will answer it."

Gu Xi has a lot of questions he wants to ask, but if there is only one question, then the only one he wants to ask is...

"who are you?"

Controlling many powerful Yin ghosts, he can bypass the monitoring and protection and develop such a [world] of cultivating ghosts in the safe zone without being noticed by the celestial master—even Gu Xi himself has lived in this safe zone for several years, I have never noticed anything wrong, and I still have the same voice as Yan Le...

"who are you?"

"what."

"Given such a precious opportunity, is it just this kind of question that you want to ask me?"

"Sir" sighed, puzzled.

Gu Qi was completely unmoved, and insisted: "For me, this is the question I most want to know the answer to."

"Then." The man with the golden mask on his face laughed, it was completely contrary to the gentleness he had shown before, with a kind of arrogant and arrogant attitude, "This is the reward you want to ask for from me gone."

"According to the agreement, I will answer, and I will never hide anything."

One of his hands rested on his mask.The surrounding space began to distort, mottled and unclear, and incomprehensible sounds and pictures appeared and disappeared quickly.

"I am the lord of all ghosts and natural disasters, the king of all ghosts in this world."

"Remember me well, Gu Tianshi."
