Chapter 72: 6th instance: Echoes of happy laughter and cheerful voices in the haunted house (part 1 of 4)

This all started from the moment the two persons entered the house.

Upon entering the house, their surroundings was pitch-black, and the faint white light coming from the lantern could only illuminate up to a certain extent.

They could vaguely discern how extremely dilapidated this place was, in addition to the smell of decay in the air. There were even quite a lot of things haphazardly scattered on the floor, in addition to the faintly visible traces of splattered blood.

The ghost was already trembling in extreme fear. It can instinctively perceive that the ghosts in this room was far more powerful than it could handle. What’s more, the scene in this room was so scary, making it wish it could turn back and run out at once.

However, the two persons, Gu Wuji and Qi Yunxiu were so calm, just like they weren’t inside a murder house, causing the ghost to doubt about life.

Having sensed something, Gu Wuji suddenly turned back to look. Several bloody handprint shockingly appeared on the door, which seemed to have been there since long ago, that even the bloodstains seemed to have long congealed.

This sight can easily make people’s imagination run wild. There should have once been a few people chaotically running inside the house, to run away from something. But when they got close to the door and thought that they could finally leave this place, they despairingly realized that the door wouldn’t budge the slightest bit.

“So that’s it.” Gu Wuji relayed his thoughts, “If an ordinary person were to really be incredibly frightened here, it would reveal their flaws instead.”

Qi Yunxiu, on the other hand, started to rummage around the things on the floor. He soon caught sight of a shabby black and white picture on the floor. The picture was of a family of five, which consists of an elderly man and a middle-aged couple, as well as a son and daughter.

But the daughter was quite obviously not very close to the others, as the clothes she had on her were very shabby, added on to her fearful visage. In contrast to this, the other four individuals looked more like a family, but the blood splattered on their faces, made the faint smiles on the faces of these several people somewhat creepy.

Gu Wuji only need a glimpse, and had already been able to roughly piece together a sad story.

The sound of dripping water echoed, which dripped quicker and quicker soon after. There were even the sounds of hurried footsteps and screams, as if the two of them had returned to that night when this tragedy took place.

In the next second, in unison to the scream of horror coming from the ghost that Gu Wuji had brought along inside, was the sudden appearance of a middle-aged man’s corpse at the door, with his hands still clasping the door panel.

On the other side, was a woman lying on the floor, with blood constantly flowing out from her forehead. Next to her was the son, who was stabbed in the heart by a kitchen knife and had died with a stunned expression. As he never expected that his mother, who had always loved him the most, would actually do such thing to him.

On the doorway leading to the next room, was the elderly man who died by hanging, with blood constantly trickling down from the wounds on his hands, and those wounds seemed to have been scratched by himself. One could only imagine how much pain he experienced while he was still alive.

The two persons, Qi Yunxiu and Gu Wuji were completely expressionless. The ghost, on the other hand, subconsciously retreated a few steps back in fear, but had unexpectedly backed into something ice-cold. It turned to look back, and immediately screamed in fright after shockingly realizing that it bumped into the elderly man’s head.

Gu Wuji: “……” If memory serves him right, this ghost is also a hanged ghost itself, right? Then, is it really okay for him to be so scared of his compatriots?

Qi Yunxiu looked over pensively: “It seems that even though it had already turned into a ghost, but it’s essence had still not changed a bit.”

In unison with this scream, the ghosts in the house seemed to have woken up.

A few corpses slowly moved to stand under the gazes of Gu Wuji and Qi Yunxiu as well as the ghost. Those sinister-looking faces then turned to look at them with cold gazes soon after, as if looking at three dead people.

Although, one of them was already technically dead.

“Too-, too terrible…… I’m innocent……” The ghost kept backing away in fear. It’s face became deathly pale, just like that of an ordinary person seeing a ghost.

Gu Wuji suddenly realized, “The items can’t be taken out.”

“Same here.” Qi Yunxiu knitted his brows.

Gu Wuji thought out loud: “It looks like this murder house is a bit difficult…… It can actually create a space that can restrict the player’s skills and items. If an ordinary player were here instead, then there would be no way to escape even if he wants to run.”

One of the murder house’s ghost looked at them sneeringly, “Don’t think about it. Since you’ve already come in, then don’t even dream of leaving!”

At the fall of this voice, a female ghost took the lead and directly advanced towards Gu Wuji, by reaching out her hands with the intention to catch him. Qi Yunxiu’s expression immediately chilled, and directly pulled off the gauze on his face. The movement of the female ghost in front of him immediately became sluggish, as the expression on both it’s eyes became vacant.

“Attack.” Qi Yunxiu directly pointed to the middle-aged male ghost on the sideline.

The female ghost immediately attacked her husband with bared fangs and brandished claws.

The middle-aged male ghost became dumbfounded. He hasn’t even done anything yet! Aside from just following along to scare people! Yet he was already being beaten by his own own wife.
