Handing Women’s Clothes To the Escape Game BOSS

"Dong Dong Dong!"

Just when Jiang Xiuxiu picked up the flashlight, she heard a fierce knock on the iron plate above her head.

Immediately, the iron cover that had been closed was pulled open, and the sunlight on the ground filtered in.

"Xixiu, are you okay inside?"

It was Ye Ming's voice.

Jiang Xiuxiu heard the words and said quickly: "I'm still alive, come down, it's fine inside!"

Hearing her words, Ye Ming walked in quickly.

The two stood on the steps and talked for a while, mainly Ye Ming asked Jiang Xiuxiu what happened, and Jiang Xiuxiu asked why he was on the top and didn't follow.

Jiang Xiuxiu first recounted the situation of his wits about fighting children and ghosts, and also selectively shared some of his game experience in the middle.

For example, the fatal point of a ghost is often its life experience, and the props that cause their death will cause fatal damage to them.

She herself is not the kind of person who can hide and tuck, especially Ye Ming's character is good, let him learn more, it is equivalent to their team will become stronger.

As for Ye Ming, when he mentioned Jiang Xiuxiu's situation, he showed complete daze.

"As soon as you found the iron cover, you went in directly, and after you went in, you closed the iron cover," he said, "At that time, I found that your state was a little wrong, so I called you a few times, but you There was no response at all."

Hearing this, Jiang Xiuxiu frowned and asked, "What about the iron cover, can't you open it?"

"Yes," Ye Ming nodded and said, "There seems to be a force under the iron cover, and it can't be opened at all. It wasn't until just now that the force suddenly disappeared and I opened it."

Jiang Xiuxiu looked at Ye Ming, he looked confused, his tone was natural, his eyes were sincere, and there was no sign of lying.

So, what he said should be true.

The moment she opened the iron cover, she was bewitched by the ghost or something inside.

She mistakenly thought that she was pulling Ye Ming down together, but in fact, she was the only one who went down, and it was not Ye Ming who was pulled by her, but something else.

Speaking of which, it is indeed the case. It seems that since she entered the yard, she hardly heard Ye Ming say a word.

Such a long silence itself means something is wrong.

If she didn't react in time at that time, but really regarded the "Ye Ming" behind her as the real Ye Ming, then what was waiting for her would not end well.

There are quite a few weird places in this basement...

After sighing with emotion, Jiang Xiuxiu no longer delayed.

"It's getting late, let's go down and check the situation," she said to Ye Ming, "There must be a lot of secrets in the basement, I suspect there will be boss information."

Her mission to clear the customs is to dress up the boss, how can you do it without knowing the boss?

Ye Ming heard this and smiled at her: "Okay."

His appearance was clean and fresh, his black hair was meekly attached to his face, and he looked very well-behaved.

Jiang Xiuxiu glanced at him a few times, inexplicably felt that his appearance was a bit indescribable.

Having said that, she seemed to have forgotten to ask him what his mission was.

"What's your mission? What about special abilities?"

Jiang Xiuxiu quickly turned on the flashlight, and she asked casually as she walked down the steps.

"and yours?"

Ye Ming didn't answer, but asked her first.

Jiang Xiuxiu thought he was vigilant and didn't care, smiled and said, "My special ability is quite special... I can change other people's clothes at will."

"What about the customs clearance mission?" Ye Ming asked.

Jiang Xiuxiu smiled: "The mission to clear the level is to dress the boss in women's clothes!"

Ye Ming: "…"

Seeing Ye Ming stunned, Jiang Xiuxiu thought he was frightened by her customs clearance mission.

To be honest, even she, now every time she thinks of her task, has a subtle feeling that she wants to say something, but she can't say it...

Perhaps she felt that her customs clearance task was too ghostly. She wanted to find someone to complain with her. Jiang Xiuxiu, on a whim, unzipped her backpack, took out the maid outfit, and showed it to Ye Ming.

"Looking carefully, this dress is quite beautiful," Jiang Xiuxiu touched the bow on the maid's outfit and sighed, "I don't know what the boss looks like, but he must be very cute to wear such cute clothes. Girls."

As he spoke, Jiang Xiuxiu showed a fascinated Han smile on his face.

Sure enough, only dressing up a beautiful girl can arouse her interest.

Ye Ming: "..."

He became more and more silent.

After not receiving a response from Ye Ming for a long time, Jiang Xiuxiu raised her head in confusion: "Ye Ming, what's wrong?"

Ye Ming: "...Nothing, just sleeves, we have arrived."

Jiang Xiuxiu listened to his words, looked up, and found that they had indeed come to the end.

A slightly narrow basement was revealed in front of them.

"Let's go in." Ye Ming said.

After he finished speaking, his tone paused slightly, and he said casually, "You know more than I do, and I have to trouble you to do a search. If you find it troublesome to carry your bag, I can help you carry it."

Give the package to Ye Ming?

Jiang Xiuxiu thought for a while and felt that what he said was all right, so he nodded and said, "Okay."

She did have to search the basement with energy, and it was inconvenient to carry a bag.

She might as well leave it to Ye Ming, anyway, he must have a lot of strength as a man, and he can run fast in danger.

Thinking of this, she put the maid outfit back and handed it over with the bag.

Then, she looked at the basement beside her.

In order not to attract attention, the couple did not connect wires to the old house when they renovated it.

Jiang Xiuxiu couldn't find the light bulb, but saw a lot of candles and matches.

After lighting three candles in one breath, Jiang Xiuxiu carefully looked around.

She found that this basement seemed to have existed a long time ago. The decoration inside was very simple and simple, and even the style of the candle lamps seemed to be left over from the 1950s and 1960s.

On the ground of the basement, a strange formation was placed with talisman paper and blood.

Next to the formation, there is a small fire dedicated to burning talisman paper, and the burning smell she can smell comes from here.

Along with the burnt smell, there were two dark, human-shaped marks on the wall.

Near this mark, there is a large black stain that has been spread from the ground to the wall, and there are black powder-like residues in some places.

Jiang Xiuxiu touched it and found that it was the trace left after being burned.

So, the two masters of the ancient house accidentally set themselves on fire when they were burning talisman paper and playing with fire below?

There is no trace of fire in the ancient house, 80% of which is because the place where they "***" is in the basement.

But the cause of their death was just a play with fire?

Jiang Xiuxiu was a little shocked.

She narrowed her eyes and looked at the place for a moment, then turned to see if there was anything else beside her.

The situation in the basement is very strange, the traces of the fire only appear in the area on the left.

One side is a piece of debris, while the other half is intact.

Jiang Xiuxiu looked at it and found that there was no extra furniture on the right side of the basement, except for two chairs and a wooden table, there was only a small bookcase.

After they came in, Ye Ming looked around and walked towards the only bookcase.

The information that can be hidden in the bookcase is often the most.

Jiang Xiuxiu also wanted to look at the bookcase, but seeing that Ye Ming was already standing there, she thought about it, and decided to divide the work first, while she paid attention to the details of other places in the basement.

For example, on the wooden table next to her, there were several books that were obviously brought in later and whose publication dates were quite late.

Jiang Xiuxiu flipped through the pages and saw that these books were all related to supernatural beings.

It's just that they are more "functional" books than the story-type books in the study, and they will record many folk methods and secret recipes that are not known to be true or false.

Many of these books do not even have publishers and serious book numbers, and it seems that 80% of them are illegal books.

Jiang Xiuxiu hurriedly glanced at the marked pages, and found that the couple was about to be enchanted.

In addition to drawing talismans, they will also try various theories of witches or liars, such as burning children's hair and drinking it with talisman water, drawing talismans with their own blood, etc.

Jiang Xiuxiu had vaguely guessed what the couple would do after reading the books they had collected in the study.

Now that she has witnessed such a scene with her own eyes, she is not surprised.

Although I still want to complain about their superstition, Jiang Xiuxiu turned to think, in such a world with ghosts and souls, their behavior seems to be fine...

However, Jiang Xiuxiu was really curious about why the couple chose to live in the ancient mansion.

If it's just drawing talismans or doing some folk tricks, then that's it. When she was a child, her grandfather's house offered a Buddha statue, and every year during the festival, fresh food was offered, and sometimes incense was burned.

Families like her are definitely not in the minority, and others will be amazed at most.

And this couple, living in a world with ghosts, behave superstitiously, which is normal.

But they moved to another house, not to mention, they also found this basement to do these things, did they make a big deal out of it?

In addition to things like drawing talismans, did they do something secret...even something that must not be known to outsiders?

Besides, Jiang Xiuxiu really didn't think that their cause of death was just from burning a talisman paper and playing with fire.

Just looking at the half-ruined, half-perfect fire scene in front of her, she knew that there must be other abnormal places in the basement.

Just what is it...

"Aren't they funny?"

While Jiang Xiuxiu was thinking deeply, Ye Ming, who had been silent beside him, suddenly opened his mouth and asked.

ridiculous?

Jiang Xiuxiu looked up in astonishment, but saw that Ye Ming had taken out a book from the bookcase at some point, and was looking down at one of the pages.

Under the dim candlelight, she could only see his slightly turned side face, and she couldn't see the look in his eyes at all.

"I was incompetent, so I tried to seek help from ghosts and gods, but I didn't think about what kind of end I could get with the tiger..."

His voice was light and his tone was flat, as if he was just saying something unusual.

In the end, he chuckled and concluded their actions: "It seems crazy, but it's stupid, it seems bold, but it's ignorant. It's normal to have this ending."

Jiang Xiuxiu: "..."

Jiang Xiuxiu: "...Actually, they would do this, but there's nothing they can do."

According to Ye Ming's words, he obviously felt that the couple's ending was their own fault.

Jiang Xiuxiu originally had this idea. In the book "The Selfish Gene", the couple also implied that they had a problem with their children.

If they had the same attitude towards the two children, the little girl might not turn a blind eye to the murder of her younger brother.

Of course, this is not to say that the little girl is not at all wrong, it is just that there is a cause and a consequence. She is guilty, and so are her parents.

Jiang Xiuxiu can understand that the couple was able to make a desperate attempt without any news of their children later.

In addition to understanding, she even felt a sense of "destiny" in the dark.

However, even if there is such a thought, Jiang Xiuxiu will not have much emotion.

Because she is just an ordinary player.

Her thoughts may be indifferent, but in her eyes, these are really just a string of data, and the stories inside are also fabricated.

In reality, there may be similar situations where the elder sister kills the younger brother, but there will be no ghosts in reality.

All of this is based on a completely unreal world setting, and there is a huge gap with reality.

Jiang Xiuxiu, in a way, is calm and rational to the extreme.

But she can also understand that there will be sentimental players who are moved by the twists and turns of the sad story.

Seeing Ye Ming seemed to be a little caught in the plot, Jiang Xiuxiu thought he was feeling heartache for that little boy ghost.

She racked her brains for a while, and tried her best to comfort her: "Don't be sad, think in a good place, if they don't do this, the game company won't take such a story as a copy of the game. In this way, We can't play this game anymore."

Ye Ming: "…"

Hearing Jiang Xiuxiu's comfort, he fell into a strange silence.

What's wrong?

Is there anything wrong with her words?

Jiang Xiuxiu didn't hear a response, and looked up in confusion, only to see Ye Mingzheng looking at her thoughtfully.

Under the dim yellow light, a strange color suddenly appeared in his deep black eyes.

Seeing that Jiang Xiuxiu was looking over, he blinked and smiled slowly at her.

"You're right," he said lightly, "their business is just a game for us."

Jiang Xiuxiu intuited that the "game" in his mouth was a little different from the game she thought.

But seeing Ye Ming thinking about it, she could only nod her head.

"Our task is to investigate information and clear customs," she said. "We can talk about the plot or something later, but now we will collect information as soon as possible."

"Have you finished reading the book over there? If you haven't, I'll come and read it with you—"

And at this moment, the unexpected happened!

Before Jiang Xiuxiu finished speaking, she heard a slight collision sound behind her.

She looked back and found that the candle that she had set aside had suddenly appeared beside the small fire burning the talisman paper.

The next second, the candle fell to the ground with a bang, causing a huge flame in an instant!

"It's burning here?!"

Seeing this, Jiang Xiuxiu widened her eyes in shock.

What's the matter, why is it burning?

They obviously did nothing!

She was slightly startled, and then reacted.

"Ye Ming, hurry up, something is wrong here!"

This fire... 80% is directed at them!

She quickly dropped what was in her hand, turned around and ran over to the steps, trying to escape from here as soon as possible.

The fire was very strange, and not long after the candle fell, a large area of ​​the room was lit.

The bookshelf was ignited directly, and countless books burst into flames, and the hot waves swept through the air, and the beating flames almost failed to burn Jiang Xiuxiu.

Jiang Xiuxiu's reaction was fast enough, but the fire spread much faster than she thought.

While she was still in a daze, the bookshelf next to the door ignited!

- At the critical moment, Jiang Xiuxiu suddenly felt a huge thrust coming from behind him.

"Jiang Xiuxiu, let's go."

A man spoke softly behind her.

With a strong push from her descendants, she couldn't help but pounced forward heavily, and fell directly on the steps before the flames rose!

And the moment she fell out, the bookshelf was completely blown up!

A loud crackling sound swept through the entire basement, a wall of fire cut off everything, and completely blocked Jiang Xiuxiu's way back.

Where's Ye Ming... Where's Ye Ming? !

Jiang Xiuxiu fell to the ground, choked by the thick smoke, and coughed a few times.

She covered her mouth and nose and turned around in panic, but the only thing that caught her eye was a bright fire.

She was pushed out... So Ye Ming pushed her?

He saved her, but he's still inside? !

After Jiang Xiuxiu realized this, she quickly stood up and tried to find Ye Ming's figure.

However, the flames at the door blocked all her vision, making it almost impossible for her to see whether there was still the person she was looking for.

She stared blankly at the bright yellow basement, and then at the burnt-out bookcase at the door.

If she remembered correctly, from the moment they entered the basement, Ye Ming had been standing by the bookshelf, reading the books on the bookshelf, and never left.

In this way, after the bookshelf burns, he should suffer the most damage.

When Jiang Xiuxiu was in a trance, he already understood Ye Ming's ending:

He'll be burned here and knocked out.

In just a few seconds, Jiang Xiuxiu couldn't tell exactly how he was feeling.

She just turned around in embarrassment, left the basement hastily, and closed the iron cover before the fire intensified.

After coming out of the hot and suffocating underground, feeling the cool air from the ground, Jiang Xiuxiu did not leave, but froze for a rare moment.

It is unrealistic to say that Jiang Xiuxiu was very shocked and even saddened by Ye Ming's behavior.

Because they have only known each other for less than two days, and this is just a game, not reality.

Ye Ming is still alive in a certain corner of the world. For him, the death just now can be completely equivalent to a real dream.

But it is impossible to say that Jiang Xiuxiu's heart is not touched in the slightest.

From the moment she entered the game, or since she was very young, she had never met such a person.

Obviously they didn't know each other, and she had rejected him at first, but he could do so much for the unfamiliar her without any interest.

Even if it's just a rescue in the game.

but…

Her maid outfit and the food in her backpack seem to be still in his hands? !

…

…

When Jiang Xiuxiu and Ye Ming went to the yard in the morning, it was still eight in the morning.

But when Jiang Xiuxiu packed up and returned to the old house again, she looked at the time and found that it was already one o'clock in the afternoon.

I didn't see any other players on the first floor, probably they had already finished their lunch and went to do their own things.

Jiang Xiuxiu quickly went to the kitchen to take a look, only to see that the food that was piled up on a hill in the morning was not much left now.

The cupboard was empty, not even a packaging bag was left.

She was stunned for a moment, then flipped through several cabinets, but found nothing.

She had a vague guess in her heart that the fact that the food would decrease might have been discovered by other players.

Sixteen players, minus Ye Ming, who had an accident, left fifteen.

Everyone has to eat, even the male players and long-haired female players who were taken away before.

The reduction of food will cause players to be vigilant, and for a group of people with implicit competition, they will share the food equally, and it is more likely to compete and snatch.

Seeing this, Jiang Xiuxiu narrowed his eyes and went to his room to take a look.

Sure enough, her door lock was picked, and many corners of the room were searched.

Now, she really has nothing.

Jiang Xiuxiu looked at her dirty self, sighed, and went to the bathroom to take a shower.

Then, holding back her hunger, she lay on the bed and recalled everything she had just experienced.

Jiang Xiuxiu's goal is very clear. She must crack all the secrets in this ancient house as soon as possible, and she must also try her best to clear the game.

In any case, you can't live up to your own efforts, and you can't live up to Ye Ming's sacrifice.

Putting aside the useless negative emotions, Jiang Xiuxiu took a deep breath to keep himself calm.

Then, she carefully recalled all the things she could observe after she entered the basement behind the iron cover—

A strange formation made of blood and talisman paper.

Half destroyed by fire, half intact basement layout.

Two silhouette-shaped black marks on the wall.

The couple tried various folk secrets leftovers.

And the subtle information that Ye Ming inadvertently revealed when chatting with her:

"...I was incompetent, so I tried to turn to ghosts and gods for help, but I never thought about what kind of end I could get with the tiger..."

... scheming with tigers?

After noticing the word, Jiang Xiuxiu's fingers moved slightly.

Ye Minghe, why do you use this idiom?

She remembered clearly that when Ye Ming was in the basement, Ye Ming went directly to the bookcase.

And she has been paying attention to other places, and has not had time to go to the bookcase to take a look.

There must be a lot of important information in a bookcase.

He'd say that, did he notice something, something wasn't right?

I don't know what to think, a dark light flashed in Jiang Xiuxiu's eyes.

If the "ghosts and gods" that the couple asked for help were normal ghosts and gods, then Ye Ming shouldn't use this idiom anyway, right?

Unless, after they set up the formation, the people they ask for help are not the "Sanqing Daozu" or "Guanyin Bodhisattva" that normal people would ask for help!

Yes, after the couple believed in ghosts and gods, they would definitely not forget to go to temples and other places to worship.

But the result is obviously useless.

But judging from the books on the wooden table in the study room and the basement, the couple never gave up their obsession with ghosts.

Conventional gods and Buddhas cannot respond to their obsessions, so they can only choose evil gods, or devils.

Thinking of this, Jiang Xiuxiu was like a dick, and the mysteries that had accumulated in his mind were suddenly broken one by one!

That's why the couple had to be in the basement, and that's why they kept it secret!

Worshiping the evil gods and summoning the evil gods is equivalent to joining a cult. If this is in real life, it will be reported by people, and the police will be promptly educated for ideological education!

Presumably in the world in the game setting, this rule still exists.

Recalling that when she asked the little boy how he got home, he suddenly changed the topic and behavior, and then thought of the neatly arranged talisman paper in the basement, and the last inexplicable fire, Jiang Xiuxiu's heart softened slightly. Shen.

Unsurprisingly, the couple should have successfully summoned the evil god.

Otherwise, the little boy would not come back, the husband and wife would not die, and there would not be so many strange phenomena in the ancient house.

It might be hiding somewhere in the old house, or it might have been watching them secretly.

And the boss of this game...that's it!
