Her face was already unnaturally pale, and her voice was icy and somber; hearing her speak such words now, it inevitably sent a chill down one’s spine.
If this were rely Xu Zhifei’s speculation, it might be dismissed, but once she ntioned it, it started to seem plausible...
"No matter what, let’s treat this as an accident for now," Song Que decided to think positively, "It’s about to rain, and there’s not a single car on this road; we’d better find a place to take shelter and see if there’s anyone around."
However, after saying this, Song Que suddenly felt a shiver run through him.
The gaze of Bai Yanliang and the others imdiately fell upon him.
Such words... seed exactly like the setup in a horror movie.
If nothing unexpected happens, they will indeed find a place to shelter from the rain, and then... paranormal activity will comnce.
The reason Song Que felt a shiver was because he hadn’t intended to say the latter half of the sentence; it was just a fleeting thought in his mind!
However, his mouth automatically voiced the fleeting thought in his heart...
"Boom..."
A sudden rumble of thunder echoed from the sky.
At this mont, Qi Nian said, "Yeah, Bai Yanliang is injured, and if he gets drenched, the situation could get worse."
As she spoke, Qi Nian’s expression remained normal, until she suddenly covered her mouth in shock, her eyes wide with fear.
"I... I just thought about it for a mont."
Qi Nian’s voice trembled, clearly not understanding why she had inexplicably voiced the fleeting thought in her mind.
Bai Yanliang was silent for a long ti, then suddenly stood up and glanced back at the road they had co from, "Let’s go, let’s first find a place to take shelter from the rain."
There was indeed no other option now; it wasn’t feasible to stay under a tree and get drenched, was it?
The four of them left the broken car and started walking along the highway.
Song Que felt as though the abnormality around him was about to solidify; he licked his lips and said, "I think Xu Zhifei might be right; what’s happening to us now might be the plot of a movie."
"After leaving the city, there are no other vehicles on the highway, the weather starts to worsen, the car suddenly has a blowout, a mber gets injured, it’s about to pour, and we must quickly find shelter... These events are too coincidental, but... why is this happening?" Song Que’s face was full of confusion, "Today is just May 4th, and we haven’t even reached Sanbai Town yet, so why are we encountering abnormalities on the way to Sanbai Town?"
"That’s a wrap."
Bai Yanliang suddenly uttered two words.
Everyone looked at him in unison.
"What do you an?" Song Que’s pupils dilated.
Bai Yanliang nodded, "On May 5th, 2019, we set off for Sanbai Town to participate in a week-long film shoot. That’s precisely the purpose of our trip, in other words..."
He lifted his head, looking at the dark and oppressive sky, the fierce wind blowing his sowhat long hair wildly, "This is exactly what we’re shooting right now, the setting of this film."
"The mission has begun."
"Boom—"
A violent thunderclap suddenly erupted, and a raindrop the size of a soybean suddenly smashed onto the ground.
In an instant, the raindrops ford a line, and with a "whoosh," the downpour descended as if the sky had collapsed.
The gale whipped the torrential rain like countless whips, lashing fiercely against the four of them.
At this mont, Xu Zhifei suddenly pointed aside, "There!"
The three of them looked in the direction she pointed, only to see amidst the misty rain, a three-story villa standing there...
No... we can’t go there, there’s bound to be sothing strange!
Even though each person said this in their hearts, their actions were... to quickly run toward that villa.
It had begun...
The plot had begun...
Why, before the rain, could they not see the villa with such a good view, and as soon as it rained, the villa appeared?
The truth was unknown, but Bai Yanliang and his group knew, in that villa... there must be another protagonist of this film—a fierce ghost.
...
Upon arriving outside the iron gate of the villa, without waiting for them to press the doorbell, the gate opened.
A stone path led straight to the front door of the villa.
Upon regaining control over his body, Song Que imdiately said, "I understand now, this is indeed a film; like just now, when the villa was spotted, our actions were beyond our control, which ans entering the villa is a necessary plot of this film, but now that we’re at the door, we can make a choice, that is, whether to go in or not?"
"Going in almost certainly ans encountering the fierce ghost, and going back, what will happen is unknown."
As soon as Song Que finished speaking, Xu Zhifei’s cold voice rang out.
"Go back?"
Upon hearing this, Song Que imdiately turned around, only to see a scene that made his expression very unpleasant.
The road they ca from... had vanished.
Behind them was only a dense forest, as for the highway? It was nowhere to be seen.
Bai Yanliang remained silent, observing the villa closely.
From outside the gate... to the doorstep.
"Not just us, other people have just entered this villa too," Bai Yanliang said.
"No... could they be ghosts?" Qi Nian reflexively tried to grab onto sothing, and in doing so, grabbed onto a cold arm.
She was startled and was about to let go when she saw Xu Zhifei didn’t turn her head or seem to care.
This reassured Qi Nian.
The four didn’t discuss for long; if as Song Que said, they are in a film, and the tis their bodies and voices are beyond their control are necessary plot developnts, then the monts they can choose are to decide the events’ progression, as well as... their lives and deaths.
In truth, in such a situation, besides entering this villa, there weren’t other choices.
The four imdiately walked along the stone path to the front door; since they walked quickly and had stayed under trees, they weren’t soaked through, but the rain now was unimaginably heavy.
The sky seed to have abruptly changed from afternoon to deep night, pitch black and terrifying.
Standing at the door, the three also found traces left by others, and not just one person. From the footprints at the door, it seed the other party consisted of five people.
"I have an idea," Song Que suddenly said.
Bai Yanliang turned to look at him, "What?"
"The five people who went in before us, could they be the original characters of this film?"
Bai Yanliang’s eyes lit up, an interesting thought.
"You’re suggesting that if this is a film, they were the intended protagonists, and we’re intruders. So, all we need to do is find the real protagonists and follow their actions, never leaving them, and we can survive?"
"That’s right!" Song Que nodded vigorously.
At this mont, Qi Nian, holding onto Xu Zhifei’s arm, weakly said, "But... in many horror films I’ve seen, in the end... the protagonists also die."
