Chapter 253: Chapter 189: Is the Haunted House Owner Not Human? _3
The haunted house business was booming, and in no ti, another eight people arrived.
These eight were all couples.
After everyone had gathered, they had to wait for the previous group of nine people to co out before they could enter the haunted house.
Soon, the previous group of people who had entered the haunted house ca out.
Among them, seven walked out on their own, their faces pale and obviously terrified. Two girls were supported by staff mbers, their legs weak and still crying after coming out.
This made the waiting girls a little scared, and they imdiately expressed that they didn’t want to play anymore.
The boys, of course, wouldn’t pass up this opportunity, and promptly took the girls’ hands saying, “Don’t worry, I’ll protect you. Besides, everything inside the haunted house is fake, it’s just staff pretending, there’s nothing to be afraid of!”
One of the boys, who was about six-foot-three and looked like he worked out regularly, a very sturdy figure, cracked his knuckles and said, “If any blind staff mber tries to scare you, I’ll knock them out with one punch!”
“You nine get ready, we’re about to enter the haunted house.”
The staff ca forward and inford the nine of the precautions, saying, “First, don’t open any closed doors you co across in the haunted house. Second, we have so plants in the haunted house, don’t destroy them easily.”
“Third, and most importantly, if you get separated from your friends in the haunted house and soone calls your na without confirmation that it’s your friend, never answer.”
This remark made the four young girls scared again.
The sturdy young man laughed and said, “Don’t be afraid, everyone. This is just a trick often used in haunted houses. They are giving us psychological suggestions… so that when unexpected situations occur after entering, the maximum scare can be achieved.”
The group of ten, following the instructions, entered the haunted house.
The haunted house was built inside an underground parking garage, with the entrance sloping downward.
At the entrance, there were two huge curtains.
Above them hung a bloody sign with the three big characters “Fengdu City.”
Xu Yang stood at the entrance and looked up at the sign, frowning… He felt that the font of the three characters seed familiar to him.
Lifting the curtain, the light inside dimd, and the first thing that caught their eyes was a narrow, long corridor.
The corridor was pitch black, with only a faint red light flashing in the front.
The muscular man led his girlfriend into the corridor and said, “Since we all can et here, we have fate, how about we form a team to find clues… I heard that this haunted house has a total of five scenes, and if we can pass within the specified 2 hours, each person will have a bonus of 1,000 dollars!”
The other people were naturally happy with this idea.
Ma Long and Xu Yang didn’t say anything, so the muscular man assud they agreed.
He had already embraced the role of commander, saying, “Everyone be careful, there is usually no danger when you first enter the haunted house, but don’t rule out the staff being sneaky. It’s a bit dim inside, so rember, don’t run if sothing scares you, otherwise, it’ll be easy to get lost!”
After passing through the corridor, the view in front of them suddenly widened.
Before their eyes, there was a gray, foggy mist with withered trees standing in it.
“This is the first scene of the haunted house, called Yin-Yang Path… When I ca, I checked the strategy online, and there are staff dressed as ghosts in the gray fog, who will suddenly jump out and scare people!”
The muscular man said, “Don’t be afraid, everyone, just stick close to !”
However,
Xu Yang stood still.
He glanced at the sign next to him. It was a black sign with three red, blood-stained special-effect characters on it: “Yin-Yang Path”.
“Old Xu, what’s wrong?”
Seeing Xu Yang didn’t follow, Ma Long couldn’t help but ask, “Why aren’t you moving?”
Xu Yang looked at the gray mist ahead and the withered trees in the mist, and whispered: “Ma Long, be careful later, don’t get too far away from … there’s sothing wrong with this haunted house!”
Ma Long laughed: “Old Xu, what status do we have? It’s just a haunted house, is it really necessary to be so careful? It’s not like there are real ghosts in there, right?”
“Maybe… there really are!”
Xu Yang said seriously: “I suspect that the owner of this haunted house… is not human, or at least… he has been to the real Yin-Yang Path and seen the real Fengdu City!”
The gray fog in front of him, along with the withered trees in the fog, were almost identical to the scene he had seen in the “Underworld Palace”!
Recalling the three characters “Fengdu City” on the plaque outside, Xu Yang finally understood why the font looked so familiar to him!
Because…
Those three characters were modeled after the three characters on the gate of the real “Fengdu City”!
PS: Didn’t expect an update at this ti, did you? Tomorrow I have to go to a relative’s wedding, and the journey is far. I’ll probably not be back until the afternoon, so I’m staying up late to post a chapter. The rest will be updated tomorrow night!
