Chapter 141 Neighbors

Jiang Cheng felt that he should be a normal person, so he decisively gave up jumping out of the window and chose a wardrobe with a surprisingly high death rate in horror movies. When he ran to the wardrobe, he took a deep breath and opened the door.

Fortunately, no ghost or anything jumped out.

He immediately turned around and got in.

At the same time, the strange footsteps also came to the second floor.

The two happened one after the other, and the difference was only a few seconds.

After Jiang Cheng calmed down, he gradually suppressed his chaotic heartbeat. Soon, even his breathing returned to normal. He took a slow breath and then held his breath.

Because he heard the footsteps suddenly increased in frequency after reaching the second floor. He first walked in one direction, and the location where the sound came from should be the window.

There was a small gap in the closet door. At this time, Jiang Cheng slowly moved closer and looked out with one eye.

He found a broken figure standing outside, and as he expected, that figure was holding a terrifying broadsword in its hand.

The ghost squirmed, but its speed was surprisingly fast. In the blink of an eye, it reached the window.

The next second, Jiang Cheng suddenly widened his eyes.

He watched helplessly as the ghost stretched out its bare bones and ripped off the window.

Yes, tear it off, just like tearing off a poster on the wall.

The window turned out to be fake!

Then the ghost seemed to realize that his conspiracy had been seen through, and he let out an angry "whoosh" sound, and then tore the extremely lifelike "window" to pieces.

Jiang Cheng frowned and instantly thought of the brushes and other tools on the desk on the second floor.

If I remember correctly, there was drawing paper there, as well as densely packed small jars of different colors.

It looks very much like the paint cans used by the older generation for painting.

Even Jiang Cheng, who was as mentally stable as a dog, couldn't help but be impressed by the ghost's manipulations in this mission. She actually hand-painted a "window" and pasted it on the wall.

In this way, as long as someone wants to escape through the window, then

I'm afraid it will cause extremely terrible consequences.

Jiang Cheng even wondered whether the ghost would crawl out of the "window" immediately.

According to Jiang Cheng's understanding of nightmares, this is completely acceptable.

After tearing the "window" to pieces, the ghost looked around, and she immediately targeted the very conspicuous large wardrobe.

Almost in a flash, she appeared in front of the closet.

There is only a thin door panel separating Jiangcheng.

Jiang Cheng was still huddled in the gap, looking outside.

The ghost raised its arms, and its sharp nails flashed across it like lightning.

The force of this blow was enough to pull off an adult man's head, but it did not break the thin wooden door of the wardrobe, leaving only a scratch mark on it.

It is consistent with Jiang Cheng’s vision.

This seemingly unreliable wardrobe is the only way to survive.

It was those extremely scary-looking, densely packed scratches that really prompted Jiang Cheng to make up his mind and firmly believe that this was the way to survive in the mission.

According to his observation, although the wardrobe looks thin, the materials are very solid, and it is difficult for normal people to leave such deep and many scratches on it.

So it can only be ghosts who leave scratches.

But why do ghosts leave scratches on it?

What's its purpose?

The first thing Jiang Cheng could think of was that someone was hiding inside, and the ghost wanted to catch and kill this person, so he attacked the closet.

The most important thing is that after experiencing countless attacks from ghosts, this wardrobe was not destroyed.

What does this mean?

Congratulations to the player for getting a safe house. These words flashed through Jiang Cheng's mind quickly.

But after experiencing several missions, Jiang Cheng understood that although ghosts represented the ultimate evil thoughts, it did not mean that they had no consciousness. Not only did they inherit some of their behavioral habits in life, but their thinking also continued their previous obsessions.

For example, asking for the life of the person who killed them.

They can even disguise themselves as teammates in a mission, and then lure them into accidentally triggering taboos within the mission, thereby killing them.

Pei Qian not long ago is a living example.

Jiang Cheng escaped because of his quick reaction.

The ghost was frantically attacking the closet outside, and a pair of scarlet eyes hidden in the shadows seemed familiar. Jiang Cheng, who was hiding in the closet, felt calm inside.

Although nightmares are full of dangers, they are ultimately limited by rules.

Moreover, this rule not only binds the players, but also binds the ghosts in the mission.

Within the rules, both humans and ghosts can act unscrupulously.

Just like now, Jiang Cheng found a way out during the mission and hid in a closet like a safe house, so according to the rules, ghosts could not hurt him.

Whether he is pretending to be silent like he is now, or singing Liu Huan's version of "Only Mother is Good in the World" in the closet, the devil can't do anything to him.

The premise is that he doesn't come out of the closet.

Otherwise, even if he is called daddy, he has to keep his head obediently.

That's the rule.

Jiang Cheng is a reasonable person. He thinks that having rules is a very good thing. He also sincerely hopes that ghosts and players can work together to abide by and respect the rules.

Just when Jiang Cheng was about to show off his skills and test Yibo Gui's bottom line, he suddenly heard a strange muffled sound.

This is definitely not a sound that a ghost can make.

And he slowly turned his head and stared at his neighbor.

There are two doors in this wardrobe, one on the left and one on the right. Jiang Cheng is behind the door on the left.

Both doors are independent spaces, separated by a wooden board.

In other words, Jiang Cheng didn't know what was in the space behind the right door.

The wardrobe seemed to be shaky under the ghost's repeated attacks. Although Jiang Cheng knew that this was just an appearance, the wardrobe kept shaking and still raised a lot of dust.

Jiang Cheng also felt uncomfortable in his throat.

Apparently, the next door should be too.

There is also a person hiding behind the right door!

Thinking of the footprints of the third person on the stairs, Jiang Cheng's eyes narrowed slightly.

The ghost's attack was as fierce as a storm, but it lasted for a short time. About a minute, the ghost gave up, and her bloodshot eyes revealed a strong unwillingness.

But there was no way, the rules were the rules, and no matter how unwilling she was, she could only turn around and leave.

The soft footsteps went down the stairs and finally disappeared slowly.

After the ghost left, the atmosphere in the wardrobe became a little subtle.

The man hid in the closet before Jiang Cheng, so he must have known that there was someone in the closet next to him, and Jiang Cheng had also realized that there was someone in the next closet, but the two of them kept silent in tacit understanding.

But as the saying goes, men come first. After Jiang Cheng confirmed that the ghost had left, he pushed open the closet door first.

After leaving the closet, he did not immediately open the right closet door to confirm who was inside, or find a way to escape, but moved a wooden table to gently press against the right closet door.

As if he was afraid that he could not hold it, he moved a screen to hold it behind.
