Chapter 280 Two
Chapter 280 Two
There is no evidence to prove that Yang Xiaocan is alive.
The same goes for the "resurrected" Bai Yanliang.
Moreover, compared to Yang Xiaocan, Bai Yanliang was obviously more weird. There was scarlet blood in his pupils, and... he said he saw a giant holding a house in his hand.
Xu Zhifei originally thought that it was Bai Yanliang's gaze that penetrated the wall, but after thinking about the scene carefully, she found something strange.
The picture described by Bai Yanliang is not something that can be seen through the wall.
This is more like... looking down from a high place!
It was like looking at the whole picture from a third-person perspective. What he saw was not just one side, but the whole space.
If what he said was true, then Bai Yanliang was really weird...
It is impossible for humans to have a third eye, so how can he observe everything around him from this angle?
Xu Zhifei knew that Bai Yanliang had secrets, but she never imagined that Bai Yanliang had so many secrets.
But at this moment, it is obviously not a good time to explore Bai Yanliang's secret.
She was in big trouble.
The figures of Bai Yanliang and Yang Xiaocan suddenly disappeared, and suddenly she was the only one left in the whole yard.
Is it an illusion? Or is it a spatial split?
And... why did the corridor behind me suddenly turn into a wall?
and many more.
Xu Zhifei thought of something very strange, that is, why Yang Xiaocan, Ou Zheng, and Ruan Jie clearly took a step ahead, but why didn’t they encounter the situation where the retreat route behind them turned into a wall?
Could it be that... it’s because Bai Yanliang and I are behind?
If the appearance of a wall behind you is regarded as the end of a level, then there are a total of four levels so far.
First corner - a woman crawling on the ceiling.
Exhibition hall—full of ghosts.
Promenade - arms growing from the wall.
Vermilion gate——kill when the door is opened, a pale ghost hand appears out of nowhere.
Now, the retreat has turned into a wall again. Does this mean that the next level has opened?
So, what is in front of us is the fifth level - the coffin in the yard.
Xu Zhifei suddenly thought, no... If it was because he and Bai Yanliang were still at the vermilion gate that the wall did not appear behind Yang Xiaocan and the others, and the wall only appeared after he and Bai Yanliang came over, then wouldn't it mean... as long as one person was left at the entrance at the beginning and passed the first level, there would be no wall behind them, and they could immediately return the same way? How could they break this deadlock?
Yes...it must be like that!
Otherwise, the meaning of the wall's existence would be lost.
Precisely because you can break the deadlock by returning to the original route immediately after passing the first level, the planner will immediately block the road behind you into a wall after everyone appears at the first level together.
So, the way to survive is at the entrance of the haunted house!
As long as they realize this at the beginning, they will immediately win this game of life and death!
But... who could have imagined the situation at that time?
Could it be that the way out has been missed...
Xu Zhifei looked quietly at the huge wall in front of him. Just as he was about to look away, he suddenly had an idea.
here we go again……
There's that inexplicable familiarity again.
Why does this wall also feel familiar to me?
Xu Zhifei touched the wall with his cold fingertips, very confused.
Could it be that this familiar feeling comes from the walls behind me just now?
No... Xu Zhifei was very sure that he must have seen this wall... somewhere else... a wall painted snow-white, yet incredibly solid...
Familiarity... familiarity...
Xu Zhifei frowned slightly, but he was thinking of Bai Yanliang. If he was in another independent space like himself, how would he survive with the mental state of a few years old?
No, we must solve the secret of this haunted house as soon as possible.
Having said that, although she was alone now and there were five coffins in front of her, nothing unusual happened.
Taking advantage of this brief period of safety, Xu Zhifei quickly sorted out the clues he had so far in his mind.
First of all, this is a gallery-turned-haunted house.
The renovation took place at the end of last month and the beginning of this month, exactly one month. Coincidentally, an ancient tomb was dug out underground last month, but unlike ordinary tombs, it was clearly a Yin house, but it was built in the style of a Yang house.
Now, this tomb appears in the haunted house.
According to common sense, it was probably some kind of curse that was triggered after the tomb was excavated during construction, and the retribution fell on the Rouge Gallery right above the tomb. The owner suffered an unexpected disaster, and the owner who sold tickets at the entrance was most likely no longer human.
So... this is a ghost that should have been buried but was accidentally unearthed. Everything it did was to retaliate against humans for disturbing it?
If you think so, the only way to calm it down is to send it back to where it should be sleeping.
And that location is...right below the Rouge Gallery.
Do we have to dig a road to the underground? This is obviously unrealistic.
Moreover, there is one thing that Xu Zhifei has always cared about.
Who is that woman?
There are four paintings of her in the exhibition hall, hung on the four walls, showing her beautiful posture of slowly turning around.
However, she was not included in one of the paintings.
This made the painting look extremely abrupt, as if... she had run out of the painting.
Although it sounds somewhat romantic, it is actually an extremely terrifying thing.
The characters in the painting came out of the painting...
Xu Zhifei had intended to discuss this issue with Bai Yanliang before, but his ideas were completely different from hers.
Bai Yanliang felt that it was just a misleading move by the schemer, but facts proved that he was not always right.
So, he "died".
After Xu Zhifei carefully sorted out these levels, he found that each level was related to that woman.
Perhaps because she is also a woman, when Xu Zhifei saw the arms growing on the wall and the ghost hand that strangled Bai Yanliang's neck, she recognized its origin at a glance.
It is the woman in the painting.
If the evil ghost is it... then the countermeasures to be taken will be completely different.
This is not the curse of an underground tomb at all, but a painting... with something fishy going on.
Which direction is correct?
Or... are both correct?
Xu Zhifei was a little hesitant. She didn't dare to make a hasty judgment because the biggest mystery in her heart had not been solved.
Familiarity.
Whether it was the corridor covered with arms, the vermilion door, or the strangely appearing wall behind him, they all gave Xu Zhifei an inexplicable sense of familiarity.
Where have you seen him before?
Xu Zhifei subconsciously looked forward, and at this moment, her breathing suddenly stagnated, because she saw...a figure standing at the moon gate behind the five coffins on the opposite side of the yard.
