1617 Invite Tourists To Complete The Challenge On Their Own, Don't Ask Ghosts!

Guo Licheng was instantly discouraged.

Something was amiss? The director's script did not say that.

Logically speaking, if I suddenly rushed out in this disguise, shout for a while, and make a terrifying move, Bao Xu should be scared sh * tless and run away, right?

In the end, not only did Bao Xu not run away, he even approached him.

Most importantly, Guo Licheng had no other choice. He had already done everything he could.

He couldn't possibly go and hack someone with a butcher knife, right?

What's more, this butcher knife was just a prop. It was not a real butcher knife.

Guo Licheng could not hold it in anymore. He turned to leave.

He had only taken two steps when Guo Licheng was pulled by Bao Xu. "Ai, don't go. Old Guo, tell me where the clues to the coffin gym are hidden. That saves me the trouble to look for them."

Guo Licheng was shocked!

Good lord! Bao Xu, are you trying to take advantage of me?

"Tourists are to complete the challenge on their own. Don't ask about ghosts and monsters!"

Guo Licheng was speechless.

However, Bao Xu had no intention of letting him go. He was completely shameless.

Guo Licheng had an idea. He came to the strength training area filled with white bones. Then, he grabbed a huge white bone dumbbell, squatted down, and pulled one team each.

Then, he looked at Bao Xu and gestured for him to do the same.

It was Bao Xu's turn to be confused this time!

"What the hell? You want me to work out here?"

The monster that Guo Licheng was playing nodded. At the same time, he very considerately removed a few of the dumbbell plates and adjusted them to a suitable weight for Bao Xu.

The corners of Bao Xu's mouth twitched as he quickly weighed the pros and cons.

Should he follow Guo Licheng's instructions and do a few strength training sessions so that he could get more clues? Or should he ignore Guo Licheng and look for more clues in this coffin-burning gym?

After some consideration, he decided to choose the former.

Thus, Bao Xu started training his strength under the watchful eyes of the monster.

…

Half an hour later, Bao Xu supported himself against the wall and walked out of the coffin-building gym.

Before he left, he gave Guo Licheng a thumbs up to express his gratitude.

If not for Guo Licheng's help, he might not have found this clue.

This gym was called the coffin dragging gym. As its name implied, there was a huge coffin inside. What's more, it could be pulled, just like some conventional strength training equipment.

Bao Xu could choose to pull the coffin himself, but nothing would happen.

The right approach was to lie in this coffin. At that time, the ghost in the gym would appear and pull the coffin continuously. This clue would only drop out of the cover after a certain number of times.

There was not much difficulty in itself. As long as he could overcome the fear of autism, treat the coffin as a flowery chair or a chair, and wait patiently for a while, he would be able to complete the task.

However, ordinary people would not think of such a crazy way of thinking.

Bao Xu might have been crippled by training but he still obtained this clue under Guo Licheng's guidance. He left the gym satisfied.

The channels in charge were exploding!

"Coach Guo, you've really embarrassed us. How can you do this?"

"That's right. Not only did he not scare Bao Xu, but he even gave him the clue!"

"Coach Guo, are you a spy that Bao Xu planted in our group?"

"That's right. We cannot be benevolent."

Guo Licheng explained himself with the flu. "Everyone has misunderstood. I have another meaning."

"I think we have to adjust our strategy. We might not be able to scare Brother Bao even if we appear personally. That's because Brother Bao has already had some psychological expectations. He thinks that all the living things that appear and move are basically played by familiar faces. How can he be afraid?"

"That's why I think we should make use of as many scene elements as possible and enter the interactive performance stage in advance. Also, I used up a lot of Brother Bao's energy through fitness. Now, Brother Bao is no longer running so fast. What we have to do next will be very simple!"

Chen Kangtuo chimed in. "That's right. I think Coach Guo's approach is very right! On the surface, Brother Bao only did a few fitness movements and obtained the clue. However, he consumed a lot of his energy in order to obtain this small clue. Obviously, we are the ones who earned it."

"What's more, Coach Guo has indeed proven that it would be very difficult to scare Brother Bao especially if he were to act alone. We have to hurry up and upgrade."

"Alright, everyone, listen to my orders and prepare to take action. Think of a way to lure Brother Bao to a more exciting place."

…

Bao Xu used the dim lights in the haunted house to read the text on the clue note while walking.

He did not expect it to be just a small background story.

Simply put, this was originally an ordinary gym. The boss did not have much income, had no children, and was alone. However, his life was very blissful.

One day, the boss of the gym discovered an abandoned orphan at the entrance. Thus, he brought him home to be adopted. However, not long after, the gym frequently went missing: There were often large pieces of hair blocking the sewer, and a series of strange events.

However, no matter how he investigated, he could not find any results.

The original orphan that was picked up grew up at an unexpectedly fast speed. He quickly grew into a burly giant and became less and less like a human. Finally, one day, he looked at the boss of the gym with his blood-filled eyes…

Bao Xu's mouth twitched after reading the entire story.

He felt that this fake vibe was rather strong.

He had spent so much effort on three major projects, and his legs were almost broken from exhaustion. In the end, he only gave this clue.

Bao Xu read the note over and over again and realized that there was basically no other content apart from this background story. There was no guiding effect at all.

"In other words, the ghost that appeared in the gym was the abnormal child that was adopted."

"If you want to find the next clue, you should look at the entrance of the gym."

Bao Xu thought about it. There was not much useful content in this background story. Most of the content in the gym should not be used. The only thing that could be used was the background of this ghost.

Thus, he came to the entrance of the gym and searched carefully for a long time. Finally, he found another clue behind a brick of different colors.

The clue changed again. It was no longer a background story in pure words. Instead, it became a picture. From the structure, it should be the Sloth Apartments next door. A special room number was marked on the picture.

Bao Xu took a deep breath and walked towards Sloth Apartments while thinking.

Logically speaking, Liang Qingfan was busy with work and had not been arranged by Bao Xu previously. He should not have the time or mood to come to Thriller Hostel to act as a ghost.

Which person-in-charge was waiting for him in Sloth Apartments this time?

…

Sloth Apartments had also been deeply renovated, just like the Shanghai and the Prison Take-Out.

The signboard of Sloth Apartments at the entrance had become dilapidated. It was smeared with bright red blood, making it impossible to see its original appearance.

The apartment was filled with all sorts of random items, and there was only one path that one could barely walk through.

There was naturally no need to check in since there was no front desk. Fortunately, even though this apartment was not small, it did not strictly follow the method of Sloth Apartments. It was just a temporary setting. There were many rooms on the first floor that could not be opened. It was decorated into various crime scenes.

The second floor was the real accommodation. However, the conditions were not good. There were only small individual rooms.

Qiao Liang and Chen Kangtuo, who had been acting as ghosts, had laid in ambush before Bao Xu arrived.

Still worried, Chen Kangtuo said, "I'll reiterate our plan.

"First, hide in the room at the end of the second floor and wait patiently. That room has the best conditions and has the most items. What's more, we can see some clues from the door. Brother Bao should not let it go."

"When Brother Bao comes to the first floor, I will open the door to kill him first. However, I will definitely not be as embarrassed as Guo Licheng. This time, I will interact with the mechanism arranged by the venue and create a more terrifying effect. I will definitely be able to drive Brother Bao upstairs."

"Once Brother Bao shakes me off, he will definitely calm down and search slowly. It will be your turn to appear then."

"There is a pre-prepared prop corpse on the bed. Hide in the cabinet in advance. When Brother Bao is searching for the corpse, press the switch in the cabinet to let the corpse come to life. The moment Brother Bao is shocked, you suddenly rushed out of the cabinet to give him a second scare!"

"I think this should be able to scare him, right?"

Qiao Liang nodded. "I think so too. Thinking from another perspective, I might have been scared sh*tless if it was me."

Chen Kangtuo's gameplay had upgraded the level of shock.

First, he would cooperate with the setting mechanism on the first floor to scare Bao Xu once. Even if Bao Xu held on, he would probably let his guard down and think that there would only be one ghost in a scene. Since he had already locked Chen Kangtuo downstairs, the search upstairs should be safe.

However, when he found the fake corpse in the room, the fake corpse suddenly moved. It scared him first. At this juncture, Qiao Liang suddenly rushed out. It should be able to achieve a very good mental damage effect!

Both of them hit off immediately and went to prepare.

…

Bao Xu arrived after a while.

He walked through the messy living room of Sloth Apartments and began walking in.

The structure of the Sloth Apartments here was relatively special. There was a corridor after entering through the entrance. You would only see the stairs to the second floor after walking to the end.

In other words, he had to walk all the rooms on this floor before he could go to the second floor.

The main reason was that there were too many roads and there were too many choices for tourists. They might not be able to tour all the rooms.

Bao Xu sized it up very carefully.

Some of the doors were tightly shut, some were left open, and the situation outside the door was different. Some were filled with sundries, and some were covered in blood.

He took out the clue from before and took a simple look. There was only a red circle on it. There were two rooms on the first and second floors within this range.

It looked like he had to search all four rooms in order to get the next clue.

The four rooms were located at the furthest point from the stairs. The rooms on the first floor were at the entrance of the hall, not far away. The rooms on the second floor had to climb up the stairs to the end of the corridor.

Bao Xu looked at the situation in the two rooms. One had blood stains, and the other did not.

He had a feeling that there must be a mechanism in one of the rooms. Some person-in-charge pretending to be a ghost was even hidden in the room.

However, which room was it exactly?

Logically speaking, the most dangerous part of a horror film was the bloodprint without a room. It would be safer with the bloodprint in the room.

However, perhaps Chen Kangtuo was using this point to bait him?

After much consideration, Bao Xu finally chose to push open the blood-stained room.
