MMB Chapter 17 The Haunted Mansion
Chapter 17 The Haunted Mansion
Skyscrapers stand tall in the middle of a street.
The entire street and buildings seemed incredibly eerie.
It was gray and gloomy.
Each signboard was stained with blood, and when the lights flickered, it looked like the underworld.
The building's name is even more awe-inspiring.
"Haunted Building!"
The building is called the Haunted Mansion.
The character for "ghost" was extremely conspicuous.
It looked like a vengeful ghost bleeding profusely.
Inside the building at this moment.
Room 102
Darkness enveloped the room; there was not a ray of light.
Three people were sitting in the small room.
"What exactly happened in the past few days? How could such fluctuations travel from outside into the Haunted Mansion?"
Cheng Li, from the Bureau of Strange Tales, spoke up.
He sat on an old sofa, sinking into it completely.
His face showed deep fatigue, with dark circles under his eyes, as if he hadn't slept well.
This is very rare in a slave-deceiving person.
Not to mention he was also a filthy-level slave, enslaving two monsters.
"Could it be that some senior figure is fighting against the supernatural or a powerful family?" Cheng Li guessed.
Xia Yi, a man wearing glasses who was reading a newspaper next to him, pushed up his glasses and said, "No, the source of that fluctuation is very powerful. The first fluctuation was emanating from an incredibly terrifying and eerie source."
"As for the remaining fluctuations, they all seem to be related to killing."
"If we encounter the source of that fluctuation, remember that kneeling down and begging for mercy may be our only way to survive."
After he finished speaking, he continued to look down at the newspaper in his hand.
The newspaper in his hand was also incredibly strange.
The words above seem to be alive, distorted.
The third person in the room didn't speak, silently smoking.
But he didn't exhale a single puff of smoke.
The third person was lying on the sofa.
It was like a living corpse, devoid of any life force.
"Holy crap! If that's the case, that monster must be incredibly powerful, something we can't possibly mess with. What kind of hellish place is this?!"
Cheng Li took a deep breath.
He stood up and came to Xia Yi's side.
"Old Xia, I really can't take it anymore. I'm so tired in this godforsaken place. I'm already a filthy-level slave."
"In reality, I still need to work to pay rent. Is that reasonable?"
Tired, extremely tired.
Cheng Li felt extremely tired.
Even the strangeness within his body showed no signs of reviving, and he was exhausted.
This is a ghostly place outside of reality.
One level of filth is simply not enough to be considered.
Living in the haunted building,
They also need to work on the streets to earn money to pay rent.
The three of them were incredibly miserable.
It's even more tiring than working like an ox or a horse!
The real world is ultimately dominated by the bizarre!
On this street,
Without money, you can't move an inch.
Xia Yi raised her head and glanced at Cheng Li in the darkness.
"If we wait a little longer, the second wave of strange resurgence will probably occur, and then we can return to the present world."
"I won't stop you from doing whatever you want then."
Cheng Li was momentarily excited upon hearing this. He looked at Xia Yi and said, "You said it yourself. No matter what I do, you can't stop me."
Xia Yi nodded, which made Cheng Li burst into laughter.
The living corpse Zhao Lang next to him stirred, letting out a hoarse laugh.
Cheng Li actually believed Xia Yi's words.
It's ridiculous.
Despite being fooled so many times, they still believe it!
Ok?
Wait, is Cheng Li mentally challenged?
That's very possible.
"Remember what I just said: if you encounter that strange entity emitting fluctuations, do not hesitate for a moment, kneel down and beg for mercy."
Xia Yi repeated it again, instantly making both the human and the corpse's expressions turn serious.
They knew that Xia Yi always meant what he said.
However, Xia Yi repeated it again.
This made them realize the seriousness of the situation.
"Is that strange entity very powerful?"
Cheng Li asked with a serious expression.
Xia Yi nodded and warned them, "It's extremely powerful, causing the strange energy I've been suppressing within my body to fluctuate and tremble."
This made both the human and the corpse gasp in shock.
Do they know how powerful Xia Yi is?
They also knew the strange and powerful suppression within Xia Yi's body.
Xia Yi looked down at the newspaper again. What he didn't tell the two of them was...
That eerie, fluctuating energy...
It's like fighting a powerful and eerie monster.
He was defeated.
In other words, there is an even more powerful and bizarre existence!
……
The present world.
Happiness Community.
Lin.
A small paper figure appeared on the table in the photo of Lin Xiao.
The paper figure was incredibly lifelike; it was exactly like Lin Xiao.
The instant Lin Xiao appeared.
The four strange creatures in the room were all stiff and unable to move.
The black cat blinked its big eyes, staring at Lin Xiao on the table, its eyes filled with horror.
Owner!
The master has returned.
Master has become stronger!
This is not just a strange feeling created by Lin Xiao, the black cat.
The other three strange creatures felt Lin Xiao's power even more deeply.
That terrifying aura flashed by in an instant.
This plunged the three eerie creatures into an abyss, a bottomless abyss!
Then they perked up again, because they belonged to this powerful and strange servant!
Their owner had returned, which made them incredibly excited.
Lin Xiao glanced at the four strange figures, without showing much emotion.
Looking around his home, he became even more certain that something was wrong with him.
"Is this the power of the price?"
The paper figure emerged eerily from the mirror.
He surveyed the entire house, then swept away all the dust with his hand.
Lin Xiao wanted to do something.
It further anchors one's existence in reality.
According to his deduction,
A higher level of existence in the future,
It is definitely related to the present world.
Otherwise,
There will be no strange resurgence.
All the strange things outside the mortal world want to enter it.
……
In the Happiness Community,
Lin Qingqing and Shen Yaoyao return.
After discussing it with the people from the Douyin platform,
I participated in an event on the Douyin platform three days later.
It's about exploring the legendary haunted village.
There were many participants, and the Douyang platform was responsible for security and arrangements within the haunted village.
The Douyang platform will be in the haunted village.
They set up a lot of scary props like wooden figures.
They've even considered turning the haunted village into a horror-themed attraction.
"I think the activities on the Douyin platform are great, because there have been a lot of posts about strange events online recently."
Shen Yaoyao analyzed the situation with a bouncy, skipping motion.
There have been many posts and videos about strange events online recently.
Douyin also launched a horror-themed game project.
It must be said that the person in charge of the Douyin platform has a very sharp eye.
Lin Qingqing nodded, agreeing with Shen Yaoyao's statement.
She was also looking forward to the activities on the Douyin platform.
The two went upstairs. Lin Qingqing opened the door, suddenly froze, and rushed into the house.
"elder brother!!"
Lin Qingqing's voice trembled as she saw a familiar figure.
However, once inside the house, the figure had vanished.
Shen Yaoyao was stunned for a moment, then quickly went into the house and rubbed her eyes.
"elder brother!!"
Lin Qingqing couldn't help but call out softly inside the house, and before she knew it, tears were streaming down her face.
She searched the house, but couldn't find her brother.
"Where's my brother? I definitely saw him! Yao Yao, did you see him?"
Lin Qingqing looked at Shen Yaoyao with anxious sobs, as if she were looking at a glimmer of hope.
