Chapter 155: Good Things Don’t Work, but Bad Things Do

Night falls.

The whole mansion is silent again.

You Xueshan and Zheng Xun are in their own rooms, and there is no sound at present.

Gu Xiuqi and Yang Huan are outside.

Now there are more and more known dangers in the mansion. In addition to the two dead players Xi Li and Yan Lingqing, there is also the elusive tree branch man, the unknown female ghost under the bed, and the housekeeper who can't judge whether it is good or evil.

Gu Xiuqi stands at the stairs on the first floor.

After knowing his "end", he doesn't seem to be so nervous and worried. As a dying man, he decided to open all the unopened rooms in the mansion while he is still alive.

After making a decision, Gu Xiuqi turned his head.

"What are you doing here?"

Yang Huan stood on the stairs on the first floor, with a tangled expression.

"I... I'm thinking that if the two of us cooperate, maybe the probability of survival will be higher."

Gu Xiuqi smiled and shook his head. He can still laugh in this situation, and he is not an ordinary person.

"If you stay alone, you might die."

"Yes," Yang Huan nodded, confirming his words, "That's why I came to find you."

"If you follow me, we will die together."

"..."

Yang Huan stopped talking, and Gu Xiuqi returned his gaze to the corridor on the first floor in front of him.

"I think the previous speculation makes sense. It should be a good thing that you don't stay in the room."

He was referring to the outrageous idea proposed by Zheng Xun before.

"Try not to enter any room."

He only gave Yang Huan this advice.

Yang Huan walked down two steps, came to the first floor, and stood behind Gu Xiuqi.

"I don't understand," he said, "This suggestion sounds unreasonable. He was just talking nonsense at that time!"

"Who said that."

The door of Room 102 suddenly opened, and Zheng Xun poked his head inside.

"Of course I have a reason and a basis."

He suddenly opened the door, startling Yang Huan.

"You, why did you come out! If you don't want to live in the room, give it to someone who needs it more!"

"I need it," Zheng Xun said confidently, "but it's not time yet."

Gu Xiuqi saw that Zheng Xun had some new ideas.

"Have you found a way out?" he asked.

"No," Zheng Xun replied, "but I plan to guess."

Yang Huan thought he was unreasonable.

"You! You still plan to guess at this time? Do you know what situation you are in now?"

"I know. Xi Li and Yan Lingqing will come to my house to claim my life later," Zheng Xun said lightly, "I wonder which of them will come first?"

After he said this, Gu Xiuqi also understood what was going on.

"You want to lure the snake out of its hole?"

"It's not that complicated," Zheng Xun waved his hand, "I just feel that if I don't force myself into a desperate situation, my brain will never work."

"..."

Now Gu Xiuqi didn't know what to say.

"Ah, let me give you two a piece of advice," Zheng Xun gave the other two a piece of advice, "The first floor is probably the most dangerous place tonight, don't go near here."

As he said that, he closed the door, and the two of them were left standing outside.

Yang Huan glanced at Gu Xiuqi, not knowing what to do.

Gu Xiuqi turned and walked towards the stairs.

"Do you really believe what he said?" Yang Huan was a little bit unbelieving.

"Believe it. I advise you to believe it too. What he said was good didn't work, and what he said was bad all came true. It's better for us to stay away from the first floor."

Gu Xiuqi said so.

The two came to the second floor.

There is currently no player living on the second floor, and the situation in all the rooms is unknown.

The corridor was empty and silent.

Yang Huan stood behind Gu Xiuqi, looking around, nervous.

"There is no movement on this floor, I think we might as well..."

He was halfway through his sentence, when suddenly, a metal friction sound came from the end of the corridor.

Click.

It came from the farther room 204.

It was the sound of the door bolt being pulled open.

Gu Xiuqi immediately became alert, and saw that the door of room 204 was pulled open from the inside by a "person" with a creaking sound.

The "person" did not come out.

Gu Xiuqi took two steps back, and pushed Yang Huan with the long pole in his hand, asking him to hide on the third floor quickly.

Yang Huan wanted to leave, but because of the pressure, he couldn't move at the first time.

Gu Xiuqi frowned and glanced at him distractedly, and then something even more terrifying happened.

Click. Click. Click.

With three consecutive sounds of the bolt being pulled open, all the closed doors on the second floor were opened!

Regardless of whether it was an NPC or a boss, the two people standing at the stairs knew that they could never be living people!

The situation suddenly became tense, and Gu Xiuqi held the long pole tightly and pushed Yang Huan hard towards the third floor. He could still resist for a while.

Yang Huan finally came to his senses and ran desperately to the third floor.

When he moved, the "person" in room 204, which was opened first, also came out.

The tall boy had a gloomy and defeated face, and there was an unhealed wound on his abdomen, which was still bleeding.

It was Yan Lingqing.

Yan Lingqing drew his weapon, which was a sharp axe. He swooped down to the stairs on the second floor, and Gu Xiuqi was preparing to meet his attack -

However, Yan Lingqing seemed not to see him and went straight to the third floor.

Not long after, Yang Huan's screams and the sound of fighting were heard from the third floor.

Gu Xiuqi came to his senses, but immediately, a figure rushed out from 201, which was closer to him, and passed by him.

The figure ran straight to the first floor, and also did not even look at him. Soon, the door of 102, where Zheng Xun was on the first floor, was banged.

The first two people who came out were not coming for him.

Gu Xiuqi didn't know whether this was a blessing or a curse, but he knew that the situation would definitely be very serious.

Two people also walked out of the remaining rooms 202 and 203, wearing the same black suit, the same white gloves, and even the same posture when they walked out.

They walked in front of Gu Xiuqi one after another, one with a smile, and the other with a serious face.

The two held the same jewelry box in their hands, which was no different from the one Gu Xiuqi had seen before.

"Hello, player. I am the housekeeper Yiyuan, I am here to take you away.

But before that, you need to pay the rent correctly."

The two "people" spoke at the same time, their voices overlapped strangely, and it was impossible to tell who was who.
