Chapter 581 The Haunted House Appears, and Dangers Abound! (Please Subscribe, Please Vote)
"That's strange. Why do people living here keep animals?"
Even if Zhang Yangqing is in a bad mood, it is instinctive for him to analyze the rules based on intelligence.
He remembered that Rule 9 was recorded in detail.
[Rule 9: Animals are prohibited in the apartment, but no resident will obey this rule. 】
Combined with the remains of the animals in the haunted house photos, and the animals next to passers-by.
Zhang Yangqing had a guess. As the saying goes, animals can see things that humans cannot, and can even predict some terrible dangers.
Could it be that the residents here sensed something, so they kept animals?
Zhang Yangqing still remembered that there were animal remains in the photos sent by the deaf man, which may have confirmed this.
An idea seems to have appeared in Zhang Yangqing's mind, which needs to be analyzed in conjunction with Rule 6.
[Rule 6: You can trust the residents in the apartment. If the resident walks out of his door and needs your help, he can provide appropriate help and ask for compensation. If he is unwilling to pay, you can find a way to get it yourself. This is your right as a decorator. 】
According to Zhang Yangqing's speculation, when he was decorating the haunted house tonight, he would definitely encounter something dangerous.
Some things may not be solved by normal people, so the rules are to remind the chosen ones that it is best to borrow animals from the residents' homes, so that some dangers can be avoided.
As for what dangers they will encounter, the other chosen ones guess that by the time they get here, it may take an hour or two at the earliest.
But Zhang Yangqing could already tell what the danger was.
In fact, Rule 12 already has a hint.
[Rule 12: Noisy sounds will attract some children. Please do not let these children cry, otherwise their parents will appear and you will be in danger. 】
Zhang Yangqing feels that if this rule is taken literally, it means that making noises during decoration will attract some naughty kids to watch. These naughty kids will definitely cause trouble, but he cannot mess with them.
If the naughty children cry, their parents will come out to cause trouble for the Chosen One.
But based on the animals and the information currently observed, Zhang Yangqing felt that there seemed to be another understanding.
Because the decoration will definitely make noise, and the children attracted by then may not be normal children.
Along the way, Zhang Yangqing also observed that this was a high-end apartment, not a large courtyard.
After walking for some distance, I didn't see a single child playing on the corridor. It's self-evident what type of children it will attract.
Now that you have guessed this, you can continue the analysis.
As the chosen one, what does Zhang Yangqing need to borrow from residents?
Are you going to borrow a dog or some other ferocious animal?
No, of course not, aren't the rules written down?
[Rule 8: The birds here are very close to humans and cannot speak. When you find a talking bird, don’t care what it says and stay away from this place as soon as possible. 】
Zhang Yangqing understood this rule thoroughly in an instant.
Analyzing from the first half of the sentence, in this building, birds are very close to humans, but only if you are human.
If there is something strange around you that humans can't see, the birds will talk.
As long as it speaks, it proves that something invisible and strange is coming. Don't care what it says then, just leave this place as soon as possible.
This is what the rules tell the chosen ones about what dangers they will encounter and how to deal with them.
How to survive tonight is the most critical and core thing.
Zhang Yangqing has already analyzed it up to this point, and the other chosen ones are still waiting agonizingly near the security room.
It can be seen that this person's progress is really fast.
When Zhang Yangqing's analysis was almost complete, the deaf man in front of him also stopped at the door of a room.
This is where they will be working tonight.
Just by walking to the door, Zhang Yangqing could smell a disgusting and pungent smell coming from the house.
The colleagues were still expressionless, as if they were used to this smell.
The deaf man inserted the key into the door, and with a click, the door opened.
The bloody stench hits your nostrils instantly, and the chosen ones who don't have strong mental endurance may vomit directly at this stage.
But for a chosen one like Zhang Yangqing who is often active in the world of ghost stories, this is nothing.
That's why the audience discovered a strange scene. Zhang Yangqing's expression didn't change when he entered.
But many of the chosen ones were beating their chests, covering their mouths and noses, with ugly expressions.
When the deaf man turned on the light, he could see the mess inside.
Seeing corpses and wreckage at this kind of scene is different from seeing it in front of photos.
Six human heads were nailed to the wall, their eyes wide open, as if they would not rest in peace.
Their expressions were also ferocious and twisted, but the most terrifying thing was that someone had used a knife to cut a mark upward from the corner of their mouths, as if they were smiling.
There are also strange characters on the ceiling made of severed hands and feet.
Many of the chosen ones even felt that they were dazzled because they always felt that the fingers of these severed hands seemed to be moving.
There were body parts everywhere on the floor and on the sofa. If you accidentally stepped on something slippery, it should be the internal organs of one of these six people.
This is only what’s in the lobby, I haven’t seen the other rooms yet.
Their mission tonight is to clean up this place, investigate how the strangeness came, and solve the strangeness.
That’s what being a decorator does.
Most of the Chosen Ones, let alone work, feel timid just seeing this scene.
At this time, the deaf man handed over several masks and asked them all to put them on.
This is a special mask issued by the company to the decorators. It has a refreshing smell that not only refreshes the mind, but also resists some harmful gases.
Otherwise the disgusting smell will suffocate them.
Before starting work, deaf people need practice.
I saw him taking out doll props from his toolbox and mumbling something.
Theoretically, when you enter such a haunted house, you should burn some incense and go through a spiritual process.
But the people here have their own ideas.
Zhang Yangqing discovered that something was not right about what the deaf man took out.
This 'doll' looks like a baby, all red, with a tuft of hair on the top of its head.
Others may not understand, but Zhang Yangqing and Dimitri frowned when they saw this scene.
As we all know, when faced with a haunted house, in addition to salvation, there is another way to suppress it.
Just looking for something more sinister than a haunted house.
The doll in the deaf man's hand is a suppressive object. If Zhang Yangqing saw it correctly, the doll should be shaped like a stillborn baby.
This kind of baby is stillborn without even seeing the outside world, so the resentment is naturally very great.
Many people who practice witchcraft and sorcery 'raise' this type of babies to frighten other terrifying beings and achieve their own goals.
However, it is very dangerous to 'raise' such a baby, and there will be backlash if you are not careful.
The deaf man didn't have that kind of ability. What he took out was just an imitation made of special materials. The hair on the head may have been cut from the ghost baby, which gave the imitation some ghost baby abilities.
This is the first time Zhang Yangqing has seen the use of ghosts to suppress a haunted house, but there is one thing Zhang Yangqing is confused about.
If you use fake ghosts to suppress real ghosts, is it really effective?
Zhang Yangqing himself is a Taoist Celestial Master, and he is very good at salvation.
Naturally, there are a few extraordinary ones among the chosen ones.
But he felt that this was not the point. The people in the haunted house were all victims, belonging to known types of weirdness. These were actually not scary. Several colleagues of the Chosen One did not look kind, but they were all capable people.
How could he possibly take on such a mission if he was even afraid of this kind of weirdness.
What people should be worried about the most is the strange person who killed this family of six.
No one even knows what that guy is, he is of an unknown type.
People who can live here should be more or less capable.
All six members of the family were killed, proving that this strange power should not be underestimated.
The first thing to do now is to borrow a bird from the resident, so as to ensure that he can survive safely in the apartment until tomorrow.
Zhang Yangqing actually only needs to think of this.
Of course, we can continue to think about this.
That requires a lot of time to observe.
When Rahman came here, he was thinking about a key question, which is very important for ordinary chosen people, that is, what rules did this family of six break to be attacked by the strange.
You know, this is a world with strange rules, and the people who attack here must meet certain conditions.
Not only do you need to observe this room, you also need to go next door to see what is different about other rooms to deduce what is going on inside.
However, Rahman suspected that it was the noise mentioned in Rule 12, but this family of six had rented a house here for so long, how could they not know about it, which means there are other 'death rules'.
The reason why Zhang Yangqing doesn't need to guess this is because he has only one death rule, which is that all his roommates die.
Other death rules may be death rules for other chosen ones, but they may not be for him.
Now that he is here, he will still go through the normal process.
After the deaf man's practice was over, Zhang Yangqing asked everyone not to rush to clean up, but to observe in pairs to see if there were any potential dangers.
After all, it's because this house is so big and there are so many rooms.
The people in the dormitory are more or less disabled. If a person acts alone, there will be no way to solve problems in time.
Zhang Yangqing can speak, so he is paired with a blind man, and a deaf man is paired with a mute.
The deaf man and the mute walked to the bedroom. They felt that the damage there was not very serious, and there must be something fishy.
Zhang Yangqing took the blind man to the kitchen where the smell was the strongest.
There is a lot of blood here and the ground is slippery, so you need to be careful when walking.
As soon as he entered the kitchen, the blind man said to Zhang Yangqing: "It's strange, there is a smell here."
Zhang Yangqing was not as confused as the other chosen ones. He replied: "You are not talking about the things boiling in the pot, are you?"
The blind man couldn't see, but his sense of smell and hearing were very keen. He asked Zhang Yangqing to take him to the pot next to the stove.
Zhang Yangqing handed him the spoon as he requested.
The blind man took a spoon and gently stirred it in the bubbling pot, then fished out a spoonful of something strange.
He put the spoon to his nose and smelled it, and suddenly his expression didn't look right.
Zhang Yangqing asked him what he had found. After all, Zhang Yangqing just felt something was wrong with these materials, but these were special materials only available in the world of ghost stories, and he didn't know what they were.
The blind man put down the spoon, sighed and said, "There may be something wrong with this family, at least it's not as simple as we thought."
