In the pitch-black darkness, one couldn't see their own hand in front of their face. In this state, one's imagination of fear naturally reached its peak. Insufficient information is always the greatest source of fear.

Could the ghost be approaching me? Could it be right in front of me at this moment? If I don't take out the high heels, will I die in the next moment? You see, the script is given in real-time now. Perhaps when the script prompts the ghost to kill you, you won't have time to react!

However, the high heels can only be most effective when taken out in an instant. If the ghost is not around at this moment, then it would be a waste of an opportunity. In the next half an hour, it would be like being defenseless! So, even if they were scared, no one would be willing to use cursed objects without certainty. But this also means that they might die in the next moment! And they might not even know how they died!

This is truly torturous. The distance from the living room to the kitchen is not very long, but for Ye Xiang, it feels so long. However, it turned out to be a false alarm.

After entering the kitchen, Yu Chen turned on the gas stove, finally bringing some light. Then, he started rummaging through the cabinets, searching for candles.

After taking out a few white candles from a cabinet, he immediately handed them to Ye Xiang and Zhao Xiaoya, and lit them with the flame from the gas stove. After all, neither he nor Ye Xiang smoked, so they didn't carry lighters with them.

After lighting the candles, Ye Xiang finally breathed a sigh of relief. Now, he finally felt a bit more at ease. He put the remaining candles in another pocket and then asked Zhao Xiaoya beside him, "Zhao Xiaoya, did you just say... you saw a figure passing by? Over there... I remember it was the corridor that extends from the basement entrance, right?"

As he said this, he could feel his voice trembling.

"Yes." Zhao Xiaoya's face was also pale. "I, I didn't see it wrong. There really was a figure! What did the Ouyang family do to this villa?"

"I don't know." Yu Chen took a deep breath and said, "Regardless, we must be careful. The entire villa is now in a blackout, and we can only rely on these candles temporarily."

Two o'clock in the morning would be the moment the movie ends.

Yu Chen's heart was completely tightened at this moment. Do they... have a way to hold on until that time? Until the end of this movie? It seems that the danger will only increase from now on!

"Alright..." He took a step forward and walked out of the kitchen. As a protagonist, he naturally had a leading role to play. "Let's go and see what it is!"

At this point, even avoiding using the redemption tickets would be meaningless. After all, there's only so little time left. Hiding all the time is completely meaningless. It will only make everything spiral out of control. What will happen when they deviate from the script is completely unknown.

Ye Xiang and Zhao Xiaoya followed behind Yu Chen. The three of them were holding candles and relying on each other tightly in the darkness. The candle's light was limited, and they couldn't see clearly in the distance. But at least they could see what was in front of them. That way, they had some buffer room to take out the cursed objects. However, Ye Xiang brought high heels, unlike Hou Tianbai who deliberately chose pants with a very large pocket. The high heels were barely squeezed into the pocket, making it bulge. This also meant that it would take a bit more time for Ye Xiang to take out the high heels. Perhaps just one or two seconds could determine life or death. But Ye Xiang had no choice. After all, the pants he brought for changing and the pants in the villa's wardrobe were about the same size.

Speaking of clothes...

Ye Xiang thought that in this villa, both men's and women's clothes were available, indicating that more than one person had lived here before. Moreover, there were outerwear, underwear, and clothes for different seasons. So, the "master" who hired them clearly didn't treat the villa as a temporary residence, not a place to stay for just one or two days, but a fixed address for long-term living. So, obviously, this place is not a fixed "supernatural experiment field".

So, what is the purpose of the Ouyang family? He absolutely didn't believe that they were here to feed zombies. For such a thing, they could just grab a few homeless people and force them to do it. The Ouyang family is extremely wealthy, so why would they leave evidence online for people to investigate? If they couldn't return in three days, the police would definitely come and search here. Although this is a horror movie, it is still a real world, and there shouldn't be such a bug error.

So, based on this deduction, Ye Xiang believed that the one who brought them here was probably not from the Ouyang family.

If that's the case... then who?

Who called them here?At this moment, they had already arrived at the corridor where Zhao Xiaoya saw a shadow pass by. Yu Chen, who was walking in the front, looked ahead, while Ye Xiang occasionally paid attention to the back, so as not to encounter the common horror movie scene where a ghost slowly approaches you from behind without you noticing.

As they walked along the corridor, they suddenly arrived at the warehouse where Ye Xiang had been trapped before. Since then, no one had bothered to take care of the warehouse, so it remained in the state that Yu Chen had smashed it open. When passing by, Ye Xiang deliberately kept his distance from the warehouse. After all, he had almost died in there!

After passing through the warehouse door, they continued to move forward through different corridors, following the instructions of the script.

At a corner of the next corridor, there was a decorative plant. Ye Xiang began to feel a chill rising because the plant was a perfect obstacle that blocked their line of sight. Could the source of this chill be hidden behind the plant?

Ye Xiang raised the candle high and carefully looked, but due to the distance, he couldn't see clearly. According to the script, they had to continue moving forward. As for what would happen when they passed by, the script would only reveal it at that time.

Ye Xiang couldn't help but slow down his pace. He would rather walk slower and deduct some redemption points than take risks. The effect of the curse seemed to be weakening, and he absolutely couldn't act rashly now.

Yu Chen also noticed the decorative plant.

The dark villa concealed hidden dangers everywhere. A slight carelessness could lead to irreversible consequences.

In the end, they passed by the decorative plant without any danger, as instructed by the script.

After turning the corner of the corridor, Ye Xiang quickened his pace and followed closely behind Yu Chen.

Just at that moment...

A loud noise broke the silence.

Everyone turned their heads and saw that the decorative plant had been smashed on the ground! The soil scattered everywhere!

And within the soil, a book appeared!

Yu Chen immediately walked over and picked up the book. It was titled "The Ouyang Family's Blood Porcelain Making Method."

Blood porcelain! The Ouyang family's secret technique!

It was actually hidden here!

Yu Chen brushed off the soil on top and flipped through the thin booklet, which looked like a martial arts manual. As he carefully read it, his expression changed drastically!

Since the late Qing Dynasty, the Ouyang family had been a mysterious clan. They actually didn't have the ability to control zombies; that was purely a folk misconception.

The blood porcelain made from the Ouyang family's blood could seal the souls of the deceased and prevent them from harming the owner of the blood-stained porcelain!

During the late Qing Dynasty, China was in a state of chaos. Even after the Xinhai Revolution, overthrowing the Qing Dynasty, Yuan Shikai seized the position of the president, and the semi-colonial society in China remained unchanged. Warlords fought each other, and the flames of war were everywhere. In such an era, the lives of ordinary people were as insignificant as weeds, naturally giving rise to vengeful spirits and ghosts.

At that time, a warlord, who had killed too many people and was haunted by vengeful spirits, sought out the Ouyang family to make blood porcelain for him. The method of making blood porcelain was to drop the warlord's blood into the kiln, make porcelain with it, and then place it inside the corpse of the deceased before burial. Under the influence of the blood porcelain, the vengeful spirits of the deceased couldn't harm the warlord, and after seven days, the ghost would completely descend into the underworld and could never return to the mortal world. For this reason, the warlord rewarded the Ouyang family with three boxes of gold! This was also the source of the Ouyang family's rise to power. It was rumored that the Ouyang family had become wealthy during the Guangxu period, but that was completely a misconception.

However, the success rate of making blood porcelain was very low. It often took ten attempts to succeed once. But even the failed blood porcelain still had high artistic value and was preserved by the Ouyang family. Their porcelain-making technique originated from the famous Jingdezhen in China. It seemed that the porcelain in that room should be the failed blood porcelain.

However, blood porcelain also had a major flaw. If, within the last three days before the ghost descended into the underworld, the vengeful spirit of the deceased turned into a terrifying ghost and killed four young men and women, then the blood porcelain would instead turn the vengeful spirit into an immortal and terrifying ghost! However, within those three days, the terrifying ghost would be confined within a fixed distance around the blood porcelain, and the Ouyang family would arrange for no living person to approach the grave of the deceased.

"Blood porcelain... So, this means..."

Four people...

Weren't those the names of Hou Tianbai, Liu Ying, Wu Jun, and Su Han?

"Let's... go to the basement!"

Yu Chen no longer hesitated and rushed towards the basement behind them!

Then, he quickly entered the basement.He ran as fast as he could until finally, the door appeared before him.

"Could it be... could it be... could it be..."

He strode forward, pulling out the key he had taken from Wu Jun's body. Then, trembling, he inserted his hand into the keyhole of the door. At this point, Ye Xiang and Zhao Xiaoya had not yet arrived because he had run too fast. But he couldn't wait.

The door was opened.

The scene behind the door was finally revealed!

The candlelight illuminated a room of more than fifty square meters.

"This... this... this is..."

Soon, an extremely horrified expression appeared on Yu Chen's face!

What appeared before him was a man with disheveled hair, lying at the door. The man lifted his head, his eyes ringed with dark circles. Not far from him was a corpse.

It was a corpse that had obviously been dead for a long time, its throat clearly slit open by a sharp weapon, its body already cold and stiff.

However, no matter how Yu Chen looked at the corpse, it was clearly...

Zhao Xiaoya!
