Yu Chen is an actor who has survived in six horror movies. This number is quite impressive in the Thirteenth Degree Cinema and can be considered as a seasoned actor. He has also had more dangerous experiences. Therefore, he calmly entered the room in front of him.
As for Ye Xiang, he has only survived one horror movie, so his experience is not considered seasoned. If it weren't for the fact that he had experienced having his own head cut off, he might not have dared to touch and take out the high heels from Hou Tianbai's severed body so calmly. But with Yu Chen, a seasoned actor, there was nothing for him to fear, so he followed along.
A quick look at "paw𝑟ead.com" will leave you more fulfilled.
This is a bedroom. Of course, it is much larger than an ordinary bedroom. The room is completely visible, including the bed, which is solid and cannot hide anyone. Just in case, Yu Chen also looked up.
No one.
Obviously, it was because of the effect of the severed finger just now. Although curses cannot be said to have a distinction between high and low difficulty in horror movies, actors generally believe that they will definitely work. In fact, the effectiveness of cursed objects is not always reliable, and occasionally there are cases where the curse backfires. Of course, just like the curse reviving and harming the actor, these are all rare events.
The curse backfire caused by the severed finger should last for a while. Of course, it won't last too long! So, before the backfire effect wears off, Yu Chen must quickly explore this room!
"Zhang Hua! Take out your phone! Take a picture of this place!"
He is now speaking his own lines, and every word is cautious, especially when calling someone's name, he must remember not to mistakenly call it "Ye Xiang". The penalty for NG is quite terrifying.
However, he found that Ye Xiang had already taken out his phone and started filming. He actually anticipated that the curse backfire of the severed finger would not last forever. Yu Chen also took out his phone and started filming around.
Soon, Ye Xiang noticed something.
Next to the bed, there was a glass coffee table. And on the edge of the coffee table, there was a very obvious crack. It seemed to be the most recent appearance. Although it is unknown whether it is related to the plot of this horror movie, Ye Xiang still took a picture of it.
Yu Chen also made a discovery.
When he crouched down, he suddenly noticed five clear marks carved into the floor under a wardrobe!
Deeply carved into the floor with fingernails...
At this moment, both Ye Xiang and Yu Chen noticed that their redemption tickets had increased!
After taking a picture of the crack in the glass coffee table with his phone, Ye Xiang found that his redemption tickets had increased by 70 in one go!
Originally, due to the change in the plot, his redemption tickets had decreased to 94. But now, his redemption tickets had become 164!
Moreover, Ye Xiang estimated that because of the special danger of this room, if he continued to stay, the redemption tickets might continue to increase! However, Ye Xiang didn't dare to take the risk. For him, his current redemption tickets were already enough for him to use the high heels for more than a second. His remuneration was 150 redemption tickets, and as long as the time was within ten seconds, it would be enough for him to use the high heels once. But now, the plot is only in the second act, so he has to wait to use it later.
At this time, Yu Chen also felt a bit regretful. If Bai Yushuo were here, her mediumistic nature would definitely be able to sense what had happened here... Of course, the premise is that someone has died here. Although using mediumistic nature consumes a lot of redemption tickets, if the purpose is not to save one's life, the deduction will be less.
After discovering the scratches on the floor, his redemption tickets increased by 80 more than Ye Xiang!
"Let's go!" Yu Chen pulled Ye Xiang and quickly left the room.
"My business... I hope you won't tell anyone else," Yu Chen said in a low voice, "I don't want others to know about this."
"Okay, I won't say anything," Ye Xiang naturally cooperated.
Leaving the dark corridor and returning to the living room, there was still no one in the living room.
"Phew..." Ye Xiang sat on the sofa and looked at Yu Chen, asking, "I found some broken marks on the glass coffee table."
"Yeah... take a look at this."
Yu Chen opened the screen of his phone and showed Ye Xiang the scratches under the wardrobe.
"This villa must have experienced something," Yu Chen's voice remained low, "Perhaps, there really is something unclean here."
Ye Xiang nodded and said, "I know this."
After it became his own, the script had already been modified to set Zhang Hua as someone who also researched supernatural things, which is how he obtained the high heels.
"But other people probably won't believe it, so let's not tell them."
If it were revealed, more redemption tickets would be deducted. Besides, everyone knows that this is a horror movie.
And for Ye Xiang, the crack in the glass coffee table and the scratches under the wardrobe...
A scene appeared in his mind. Set two characters, let's assume they are A and B. For some reason, A wants to kill B. During their fight, the glass coffee table falls and cracks, and when B is about to be killed by A, he grabs onto the wardrobe and refuses to let go. But in the end, A pulls him out, and B's fingers tightly grip the floor, leaving those scratches.The murdered Yin soul refused to disperse, having killed Hou Tianbai... So, was the master Jia? He feared Yin, posted that high-paying job, and summoned them here, but for what? To let the vengeful Yin soul kill them to vent its anger? But what was in that basement room? They were asked to prepare three meals a day, and indeed someone ate the food they prepared, so there must be someone down there!
Never open the door...
If Jia was the master, why emphasize this so much? What was hidden behind that door?
Why did someone die even though the door wasn't opened...
At this moment, a thought flashed through Ye Xiang's mind.
Did no one really open that door?
If it was the autonomous action of another character, the other actors wouldn't know. Could it be that some actor, unfortunately, opened that door but then locked it again?
As for the key, it was easy to explain, like a character accidentally finding the key. Such plot arrangements were common in horror films. On the surface, deducting the death redemption ticket would suffice, but what if this was part of the script's red line instructions?
The more he thought about it, the more likely it seemed.
Yu Chen was the protagonist, would he do such a thing? Hard to say. The protagonist breaking taboos and seeking death in horror films was common. Su Han, Hou Tianbai, Wu Jun, Liu Ying, and Zhao Xiaoya were all possibilities.
If this was the case, then someone held the key. Perhaps the key itself was a cursed object, otherwise, how could a normal room seal a vengeful spirit?
At noon, lunch was finally ready. However, this meal was completely different from the pre-arranged menu (of course, the script didn't have specific requirements for lunch). Liu Ying and Zhao Xiaoya put the lunch in the food elevator and pressed the button.
Everyone else had lost their enthusiasm for delivering food, and they all gathered in the living room with anxious faces.
Su Han was sitting with his legs crossed, lighting his tenth cigarette of the day. The ashtray in front of him was completely filled with cigarette butts. Wu Jun also took one and started smoking. The non-smokers, Yu Chen and Ye Xiang, kept their distance to avoid secondhand smoke.
The room was deathly silent. After all, it was a blank period in the script.
"I have something to say." Ye Xiang spoke before Yu Chen: "I have something to show you all."
He quickly took out his phone and showed them the photos.
"This is..."
Everyone turned their attention to him.
"These cracks in the glass coffee table, and these scratches on the floor..." Ye Xiang looked around at everyone, "I think there might be a problem."
Although he didn't discover the scratches, he also took photos of them later.
Sure enough, not only were the death redemption tickets not deducted, but he also gained an additional 40!
Ye Xiang's death redemption tickets suddenly increased to 194!
Yu Chen was also slightly taken aback, not expecting Ye Xiang to beat him to it. He knew that if he made these matters public, he would definitely be able to increase the number of death redemption tickets.
Of course, Ye Xiang was also very surprised, he had gained 40 death redemption tickets at once! He then realized that making this public would have a significant impact on the plot. Everyone would go to that room to investigate, causing a butterfly effect.
However, this was not enough for Ye Xiang. This could only give him ten seconds to use the cursed high heels. Ten seconds was too short, it probably wouldn't be enough to turn the tide.
"Maybe there really is a problem." Su Han's eyes also became serious, "The shattered glass coffee table could just be furniture damage, but these scratches are different. No one would scratch the floor like that for no reason, it would break their nails..."
"Wait!" At this moment, Wu Jun spoke up: "Actually, I..."
"What is it?"
"I also discovered something! Earlier, in the room with the antique porcelain, there was a chair, underneath it, I saw... a bloody handprint!"
Wu Jun originally didn't want to say anything, fearing it would deduct death redemption tickets. However, seeing Ye Xiang not only speak up but also look obviously pleased after doing so, he suddenly realized that doing so might actually be beneficial!
"What!" Su Han's face changed dramatically!
Then, everyone immediately went to that room.
Of course, Ye Xiang and Yu Chen were prepared to take out the cursed items at any sign of danger.
After entering the room, everyone saw the bloody handprint under the chair.
"Indeed..." Yu Chen said decisively: "Something unusual... definitely happened in this villa!"
