Chapter 323: Li Baotian’s home, a very dangerous place.
"What are you going to do?"
Before Lin Chen could say anything, Duan Jibo frowned.
"I'm searching for clues with you guys. You won't think I'm not strong enough, will you?" Duan Qi said.
"You are only of average strength. It's too dangerous for you to go out with us. We may have to spare some strength to protect you." Duan Jiebo advised. Obviously, he didn't want his sister to take the risk with him.
"I have a secret method to escape, don't worry. Now that we have formed a team, you two can go out. I can't be the only one here enjoying your achievements. I, the Queen of Darkness, would not even bother to do such a thing." Duan Qi insisted.
Duan Jibo felt a little angry, and then he put on his elder brother's airs and said, "If I say you can't go, then you can't go!"
Duan Qi also got angry and pointed at Duan Jibo and said, "Fatty!"
As soon as these words came out, Lin Chen couldn't help laughing out loud. Seeing the two of them looking at him, he quickly raised his head and said, "I remembered something happy."
Duan Jibo's face flushed and his neck thickened. He was a little furious and almost broke down by this critical blow from his own sister. Finally, he sighed and said:
"Xiao Qi, this isn't a game where you can start over if you fail. You've already reached four stars, so you should have some awareness. I know you're worried about us, but just stay home and wait. I'll come back to see you no matter what, okay?"
Duan Qi looked at Duan Jibo for a long time before he slowly said, "No, that's what you said when you ran away from home. My mother and I thought something had happened to you. If I hadn't accidentally become a player, I wouldn't have known that my dead brother had become the head of the Dark Guard Yunhai City."
"you!"
Duan Jibo was angry, but finally lowered his hands. He felt sorry for everyone but sorry for his family.
When the horror game first broke out, confidentiality was maintained to the utmost. Neither he, Chen De, nor Zhou Geng stayed away from the sight of their relatives. He felt sorry for his sister who had been worried about him for many years.
He was about to take risks again, which was very similar to the situation when he ran away from home. This was why Duan Qi insisted on following him.
Lin Chen seemed to be looking up, but he was actually watching the two of them from the side. To him, it didn't matter whether he brought Duan Qi with him or not. If the pink sack could hold one, it could hold two.
However, he also felt an inexplicable feeling in his heart.
He had seen many players die in dungeons, and he also remembered those people shouting before they died that their family members were waiting for them and that they could not die yet.
Perhaps this is because they have a fear of death, but it also includes responsibility to their family.
However, the emergence of horror games has ultimately separated too many things.
Even Lin Chen had to admit that the disaster brought to Blue Planet by the horror game was too great.
"If you have the will, one day I will sell you! You should be very valuable." Lin Chen thought.
At this time, Duan Jibo spoke up and said, "Okay, I'll take you with me, but if anything dangerous happens, you must listen to me, understand?"
He sighed, as if he could do nothing about his sister, and looked helpless.
Duan Qi laughed and nodded repeatedly, just like a little girl.
A pink light flashed, and Ma Baosheng, Ma Lu and the other five ghosts were all put into a pink sack by Lin Chen. Afterwards, Lin Chen gave Ma Baosheng a little permission, allowing him to see the outside world and hear the sounds of the outside world.
"Ma Baosheng, show me the way. In here, you don't have to worry about the dry well restraining you. You can leave the yard."
…
In the dark night, the three of them quietly left the room without disturbing anyone.
The players and ghosts who came out to watch because of the noise returned home early because they couldn't see anything.
Even a real ghost would not get used to the darkness in a deserted village.
"It's so quiet. It would have been nice if those players didn't come out. Such a big noise didn't even disturb the native ghost villagers nearby." Lin Chen walked on the path and couldn't help but speak when he looked at the silent environment around him.
"I'm not sure. It's better to be careful." Duan Jibo said.
Duan Qi followed the two closely, looking obviously nervous.
This made Lin Chen couldn't help but laugh.
At this time, Ma Baosheng's voice came from his pocket.
"The villagers don't go out at night. It has been like this for many years."
"oh?"
Lin Chen's eyes lit up and a bold idea popped into his mind.
"So, if I go door to door to deal with them now, no native ghost villagers will find out?"
"In theory, yes. Of course, if the noise is too loud, it will probably affect them," said Ma Baosheng.
Lin Chen's eyes became brighter and brighter. This copy was not the No. 9 Mental Hospital, and that "he" did not need him to save him, but to be "liberated".
Since it was a liberation, Lin Chen thought that catching "him" and then "sending" him to a completely new environment would also be considered a liberation, so he was not afraid of catching the wrong guy and missing out on the red quality reward.
The reason why he didn't take action during the day was that he didn't want to be hated by the villagers of the entire deserted village. He did have the strength to crush the ordinary village ghosts, but if hundreds of villagers rushed forward, even he would have to avoid their sharp edge.
At this time, Duan Jibo couldn't help but said with a tired look on his face: "Brother, let's explore Li Baotian's home first, don't make trouble, if you really kill a large group of native ghosts, Boss will definitely not be able to sit still."
After hearing this, Lin Chen thought about it, then smacked his lips and said, "Okay, let's talk about it later."
Duan Jiebo's words made sense, and it was another factor that prevented Lin Chen from taking any action.
And it's not just dangerous. This copy is an exploratory copy after all. Even if he catches all the ghosts, he still doesn't know the truth of the copy and can't leave. That would be embarrassing.
Anyway, there are still some ghost players guarding there, so there is really no need for him to jump out for the time being. Moreover, even if he catches the native ghosts, he can't catch them all at once. He needs to make long-term plans. The most important thing right now is to go to Li Baotian's house to investigate the situation first.
Li Baotian's home was not too far from here, only about one thousand meters away. With the walking speed of the three of them, it didn't take long before they arrived at the door of Li Baotian's home.
This is a house that looks obviously several times larger than the other houses.
At the very least, the gate was made of steel, painted red, with steel nails neatly arranged on it, and two stone lions more than one meter tall placed on both sides of the door.
It is obviously the residence of a wealthy family.
"It seems that this is the right place." Duan Jiebo said, and then he seemed to notice something. He walked to the door, stretched out his finger to touch the red paint on the door, and then put it next to his nose to smell it, and immediately couldn't help but gasp.
"This is human blood!"
Upon hearing this, Duan Qi's face changed noticeably and turned slightly paler, but she did not scream out in surprise. After all, she was a four-star player, and her years of dungeon experience taught her that shouting in a dungeon was the behavior most likely to attract ghosts' attention.
Lin Chen also smeared a layer of blood paint and rubbed it on his hand calmly.
It was indeed the smell of blood, and it was undoubtedly human blood.
Duan Qi approached the two of them and looked around. After a while, she let out a long breath and said, "Although it looks weird, there really doesn't seem to be any movement here. At least, I don't feel the slightest bit of Yin energy."
"Don't let your guard down, what we are about to break into may be the lair of a dungeon boss!" Duan Jibo reminded, but like Duan Qi, he found nothing except the blood paint on the door.
At this time, Lin Chen smiled mysteriously, showing a rare serious look on his face, and said: "I don't know if it's the Boss, but there must be a big deal here."
"Really?"
"Chen boy, how did you know that?"
Duan Jibo and the other man were both stunned, then quickly asked.
Lin Chen shook his head.
He certainly didn't feel the Yin energy, but he saw more than Duan Jiebo and the others.
In his eyes, the sky above the yard was filled with strong resentment.
This is an invisible energy that only he can see.
A terrifying ghost face had formed above the yard, as if it was staring at the three people without blinking.
In addition, both the blood-red gate and the two stone lions at the door were wrapped in this resentment.
It can be said that this is the first time in his life that he has seen such a strong atmosphere of resentment in this courtyard !
Resentment is related to the negative emotions before death, and it is also related to the sins created before and after life.
Chonglan and Mingxun are very powerful, but ghosts like them, who were born from the matrix of the horror world, cannot produce such terrible resentment.
This made Lin Chen's expression become serious, which was rare.
"This is a very dangerous place!"
Lin Chen muttered to himself, then raised his head and instructed the two of them.
"Old Duan is right. It's right to be cautious. Let's go in together. For the time being, both of you should stay away from me."
Seeing the two of them nodded at the same time, Lin Chen walked forward and pushed the door open with one hand.
The door was not locked. With a creaky sound, an antique courtyard finally came into view of the three people.
The ground was the smoothest it had ever been in the village. It was paved with bluestone. There was a medium-sized pool on the side, which looked a little dry at the moment. In the pool, there was a rockery more than three meters high.
Directly in front of the courtyard is a reception room. When the door is open, an altar can be vaguely seen.
Below the altar, there is a yellow wooden armchair standing quietly.
On both sides of the courtyard, there are several connected side rooms.
"They are indeed a wealthy family." Lin Chen exclaimed in amazement.
Having said that, he led Duan Jibo and the other two over the threshold and into the yard.
As soon as they entered the yard, the three of them felt a strong cold wind coming from the yard, and the door behind them slammed shut with a deafening muffled sound.
At the same time, a hint of red light flashed in the eyes of the two stone lions at the door. They slowly turned their stone heads and looked inside the door. Their mouths, which were already wide open, now seemed to be even wider, with the corners of their mouths noticeably raised a few points.
It seemed like a playful smile. In the dark night, the two dead objects looked extremely strange.
