The door to the room was literally unlocked. Pei Renli used a short stick to unlatch the door and pressed it against the door panel with a little force. The simple wooden door opened smoothly, making the vague noise a little clearer.

.

He cautiously poked his head out, and the first thing he saw was an extremely wide corridor, almost seven or eight meters wide by visual inspection, and it was also made of cut gray stone bricks.

In addition to being wide, it is also too long. Although you can see swaying torches providing illumination every once in a while, in such dim light, you cannot see the end of the corridor whether you look left or right.

where.

And Pei Renli was not the only one who made the move to go out and check.

The entire corridor is like the corridor of a hotel. There are rooms with the same style on both sides. Many people are looking in the direction of the sound source, or simply standing in the corridor. Some of them look like individuals.

There are also some looks that are really hard to describe in one word...

At this time, the noise was louder and clearer.

"Run!"

"Don't block the road! Get out of the way!"

…

A series of shouts mixed with angry curses came from a distance, accompanied by a rumbling low voice. At the same time, under the dim light, it seemed that many people could be vaguely seen walking along the corridor like wild dogs.

The road ran wildly, attracting some people who originally went out to look around to join in.

When Pei Renli saw this, he only thought about it for less than half a second and ran away.

It is not ruled out that there is some herd mentality involved, but Pei Renli felt that letting so many people run around without caring about their hips was probably not a simple bad joke.

All of a sudden, all the people who were watching the theater nearby poured into the corridor and moved further away. The originally wide corridor immediately became overcrowded.

Pei Renli's physical ability is very average. Although he is young and energetic and can't run after a few steps, he has never practiced track and field, and the people around him, whether they are human-like or weird-looking, are all

have no idea

Why are they running faster than him? Even though more and more people are joining the running army in the corridor, no matter whether they are the ones who come first or those who join later, Pei Renli can only watch helplessly no matter how much he runs around.

He was passed one by one.

"Get away!"

Pei Renli gritted his teeth and ran forward. When he heard the sound, he felt someone push him hard. He was already in a running state and had no time to look back. This push directly caused him to lose his balance.

As his body tilted, Pei Renli saw a hand that looked like it was wearing a crocodile leather glove retracting. It was the grandson who just pushed his shoulder, but he didn't see who it was at all.

As luck would have it, there was a staircase on the right side of where Pei Renli fell. Originally, if he fell to the side, he would have hit the wall at most, but now he fell straight down the stairs.

The loss of balance and the sudden feeling of falling were very frightening. When Pei Renli rolled down the stairs, he could only wave his hands wildly, and happened to hit something that looked like an armrest. He hurriedly grabbed it hard and stopped, tilting his waist.

Half lying on the stairs with her hips stretched out.

Pain shot through his back and butt where he had just hit him. Pei Renli was about to yell at the bastard who pushed him, but when he looked up, he saw something flying past the stairs where he had just fallen.

It was like a layer of gray smoke, or like flowing darkness, pushing forward along the corridor like a tide.

The speed is not particularly fast, it is visible to the naked eye, but when it passes through the corridor, it is obviously gas, but it makes a low rumbling sound, like an extremely heavy object crushing through the corridor, shaking everyone near the stairwell.

Dust falls down.

The swaying torch was engulfed by it, making the bright firelight seem to be covered with an unpleasant veil, becoming hazy, reflecting large swathes of strange lines and terrifying shadows.

And some people who were too late to escape the chase of the smoke began to become looming after being caught up by it, and their movements became slower and slower, and finally stopped where they were, or fell down or knelt down.

Their bodies seemed to be broken, disappearing little by little in the gray mist from the outside to the inside, and finally merged with the gray mist.

Pei Renli immediately swallowed the "f*ck" that he had blurted out. He grabbed the handrail of the stairs and did not dare to move. A layer of cold sweat broke out on the back of his neck unknowingly.

——Afraid.gif!

–‐‐——–‐‐——

Pei Renli actually had no accurate guess as to how terrifying the so-called 'Horror Castle' was. After briefly searching the room, he felt that it was probably similar to a ghost movie.

In addition, the participants were all "New Demon Kings", and the total number was six hundred. Although Pei Renli felt that for the sake of safety, it was best not to have too much contact with other people, but there were so many people, it was not very serious if a ghost came out.

It's just scary.

As a result, I was severely slapped in the face...

If he made a slight mistake, Pei Renli would probably become a "scum" like those unlucky ones who ran slowly. Thinking that being pushed down actually saved his life, and his luck finally bottomed out.

The gray mist that flooded through the corridor did not enter the stairwell, but it had no intention of disappearing. There was always a low rumbling sound in his ears, and Pei Renli did not dare to go back the way he came.

It was not safe to stay where he was. There was only one way left for Pei Renli to go, which was to go down the stairs and take a look.

The stairs were in a spiral shape, and the part that didn't go up could only go down. Pei Renli tried to remove a torch in the stairwell, and walked down with one foot deep and one shallow.

However, the stairs are not particularly long, and it feels like they have descended for more than ten meters before reaching the end, where there is another simple wooden door locked with a bolt.

When you open the door and go in, you will see only a thick darkness. Even the torch in your hand cannot illuminate at all. The light emitted by the flame is imprisoned in place in an incredible way. At most,

It could only illuminate the hand holding the torch, and it seemed more like it was swallowed up by darkness.

This extremely abnormal scene made Pei Renli's palms sweat, and the cold air made him shiver as if someone was blowing cool air on the back of his neck.

Human beings are phototactic creatures and will instinctively feel fear when they are in the dark, let alone such an unusual darkness.

After calming down, Pei Renli could only think silently in his heart not to scare himself, and move forward with courage.

Walking into the darkness was not a good choice, but Pei Renli had no choice.

Due to the darkness, Pei Renli could only use the hand holding the short stick to sweep forward to avoid hitting the wall. Feeling that the darkness was quite large, he took several steps forward.

Didn't hit the edge either.

——Bang!

There was a sound of the door being violently closed behind him, which made Pei Renli's hair stand on end. He was sure that there was no one behind him. After all, those who ran fast had already run along the corridor, and those who ran slowly were already running along the corridor.

Under the blowing of the gray mist, he turned into scum in the blink of an eye.

So, who closed the door?

The cold air followed the opening of the clothes and clung to the skin like tarsal maggots, more like turning into some kind of living thing and burrowing in. Pei Renli felt as if an invisible tight band was placed on his forehead.

, the skin wrinkled together unconsciously, and goosebumps appeared one after another like waves of wheat in autumn.

Back up or keep going?

Backing up might hit something closing the door.

But moving forward…

In a completely dark environment, who knows where to go!

No matter what decision he made, Pei Renli had to do it as soon as possible, because he had not taken a few steps forward. If there were really monsters or ghosts, he would die miserably if he stayed where he was.

As the saying goes, misfortune never comes alone. When Pei Renli was about to move forward quickly, the torch in his hand made two soft noises and suddenly went out strangely.

The range that a torch can illuminate in this darkness is extremely limited, but having light in hand is great even for psychological comfort, but now there is no inner comfort at all.

The feeling of fear gripped his nerves like an invisible hand, and a cold air rushed from his tailbone to his forehead. Pei Renli hurriedly walked forward as if he had no choice but to run in the dark.

"Ugh!"

In the chaos, Pei Renli seemed to bump into someone. He was sure it was someone because he could feel the temperature of the other person's body through his clothes.

However, because he was running too fast and it was pitch dark, when he suddenly bumped into someone, Pei Renli immediately rolled into a ball with the person he bumped into.

Almost at the same time, Pei Renli, who had been knocked on the forehead, clearly felt a thin and unpleasant wind passing above him. Only then did the thin and sharp sound of wind break into his ears, like an extremely strong wind.

It looked like a sharp weapon was being wielded forcefully.

Ignoring the pain, Pei Renli was so frightened that he held his breath. He truly felt the crisis of his life. The sound of his heartbeat seemed to become particularly harsh and faster, as if it was about to burst from his throat.

It's like jumping out of nowhere.

At this moment, the flash suddenly came on.

As fast as lightning, this extremely dark space was illuminated for an instant, and then returned to darkness again.

Pei Renli, who was lying on his side on the ground, opened his eyes wide. In that moment of light, he saw that there were actually many people near him. Some were gathered together in twos and threes, and some were alone, standing or squatting.

With.

Even if the darkness has returned, if you listen carefully, you can still hear the sound of subtle breathing or moving footsteps.

Discovering this made Pei Renli feel a little more at ease. Even if he didn't know those people at all, at least he wasn't facing this situation alone, which was a good thing.

His body that was stiff due to fear regained a little mobility. Pei Renli tried to get up by holding on to the ground with as little movement as possible. Because he was so close, he could feel that the person he hit seemed to be making the same movement.

In other words, both parties felt slightly relieved because of the discovery that the other party was a human being, but even so, no one spoke in such a strange environment.

But just when Pei Renli straightened up his upper body, something extremely cold approached him. The chill was not just a low temperature, but more like an extreme cold that penetrated into the bone marrow and nerves.
