Chapter 517 Who is it hiding on?

"I'm afraid this matter requires further consideration." Gao Ming was also curious about the deep nightmare, but he was very self-aware and felt that with his current strength he was probably not qualified to get in touch with the truth.

"Of course." Bai Huang was very rational: "The owner of the house will not surrender. In fact, he has discovered my plan. That's why he is throwing dirty water on me, hoping that I will become a scapegoat."

"What do you mean?" Zhi Ge grabbed the axe, not daring to be distracted for a moment.

"It's possible that the owner of the house has already replaced me with a test subject. I was just pushed out by him to confuse you." Bai Huang was very calm: "When the owner was applying the frostbite ointment, he thought about swapping with me, but after trying it, he found that my will was very strong and he couldn't completely control my body."

After finishing speaking, Bai Huang looked at Gao Ming deeply again and said, "You should be able to find that the owner of this house has a different attitude towards you than towards others, right?"

"It seems a little. He explained a lot of things to me, but he was very impatient with Xu Deyi." Gao Ming nodded.

"Your will is stronger than all of ours, like a monster. I can see it, and the owner of the house can see it too. It will be difficult for him to exchange with you, so he only has two choices, one is to gain your trust, the other is to kill you." Bai Huang had already thought everything through: "All the stories the owner of the house told you and all the information he provided you were to facilitate his escape."

"Then do we still have to go through the ceremony according to the envelope?" Gao Ming raised the letter paper in his hand.

The room fell into a brief silence. Just as Bai Huang was about to speak, a sudden scream came from room 2009 downstairs!
Zhi Ge's pupils shrank, he grabbed the axe and ran downstairs.

"The owner's performance is about to begin." Bai Huang followed slowly, as if he had already guessed what would happen next.

Putting away the letter, Gao Ming also chased after him.

Footsteps were heard in the corridor, and everyone came to the door of Room 2009. The firewood in the brazier was extinguished by ice water, and there was a large human-shaped mold spot on the bed. Raorao was tied to the bed in a red dress, and there were marks on her white wrists from the struggle.

"Save me! Zhi Ge! Let me go!"

Raorao was frightened and twisted her arms and legs on the bed. The owner of the house, who was wearing a thick robe, collapsed in the corridor, as if he was attacked while chasing someone.

The kerosene lamp was kicked over, and the flames illuminated the face of the owner of the house. He fell into a deep coma, and the most crucial shotgun was nowhere to be found.

"The owner of the house is unconscious. It seems that he has completed the replacement and is hiding among the testers." Bai Huang watched everything coldly, and finally his eyes fell on Rao Rao. Rao Rao was the most suspicious among all the people. She had been alone with the owner of the house for a period of time, and cooperated with the owner to complete a certain ritual.

"Zhi Ge! Help me let go!" Raorao was indeed frightened. Her face was pale and her body couldn't stop shaking. She seemed to feel very cold.

"In my sister's story, the owner of the house first hid in the rag doll after escaping from the house, then took control of her body while she was asleep, and finally replaced her soul with the rag doll through a ritual, completely occupying her body." Gao Ming looked at Raorao with scrutiny and observation. He always felt that the owner of the house should not be that simple. "You are talking nonsense! You are seeking revenge just because I don't want to take care of you new people!" Raorao was still struggling on the bed: "We haven't heard your story yet. Why did you tell it now? You want to frame me!"

Facing the threat of death, Raorao screamed at the top of her lungs, her eyes reddened, and she discovered that Zhige, whom she trusted the most, also hesitated.

"Let's tie her up first." Gao Ming had no intention of arguing with Raorao. He was very rational: "The owner of the house is unconscious, which means he did not exchange Raorao's soul into his own body, but hid it somewhere else."

"Don't listen to him! He is lying to you!" Raorao scratched the hemp rope with her nails, and blood appeared on her fingertips.

"But there is another possibility. Raorao is a smoke bomb thrown by the owner of the house. The real owner of the house has been exchanged with other testers." Gao Ming said in a deep voice: "Did you notice a detail? Just now Bai Huang said that she and the owner of the house saw that I was determined and difficult to be replaced, but the owner of the house just asked me to go to the kitchen to get the brazier. If there was no accident in the middle, I should have cooperated with the owner of the house to complete the ceremony, and I should be the one tied to the bed."

Everyone's eyes began to become strange, and Raorao didn't know what Gao Ming was planning for a moment.

"He knew it would be hard to replace me, but he still asked me to cooperate with him in the ceremony. It's obvious that he wanted me to take the blame for him like Bai Huang." Gao Ming's eyes moved between Raorao and the owner of the house. He couldn't see any flaws: "You and Raorao have a close relationship. You will probably find problems after spending more time together. Let's keep Raorao and the owner of the house with us for the time being. Hurry up and open the other doors to restore the whole truth."

Bending down, Gao Ming found the four keys of pain, sorrow and resentment in the pocket of the owner of the house: "We opened the two rooms of pain and sorrow. The remaining rooms, one is behind the woodshed, and the other seems to be on the fourth floor."

Zhi Ge untied the ropes on Raorao's legs, tied up the owner of the house's hands, dragged him on the ground, and several people ran to the first floor.

After they left, water droplets from the extinguished brazier gathered to form a sad human face. His features were blurred and he seemed to be seriously injured.

"The owner of the house is unconscious, and the hunting rifle is lost. We don't have the means to deal with ghosts now. If we encounter corpses after leaving the manor, we will scatter and escape to lead them away." Gao Ming pulled the heavy bolt and pushed the thick wooden door open. Heavy snow mixed with ice particles hit his face, leaving long and thin bloody marks: "Let's go!"

The oil lamp looked extremely small in the wind and snow. Several people were running wildly in the snow. Xu De, the most timid one, looked back and saw the bodies of climbers crawling on the outer wall of the manor. They were entangled in ropes, holding ice picks, and one of them had half of his body in Room 2001.

"Fortunately I got out." Just as he finished saying this in his mind, Xu Deyi found that a climber turned around and saw him. His stiff body began to slide down, as if he was trying to crawl towards him.

"Pay attention." Gao Ming was the first to arrive at the back of the woodshed. He took out the key with the word "怨" written on it and opened the iron door with an upside-down "福" on it.

Heavy snow was flying in the night sky and the weather was freezing cold, but the temperature inside the cabin was even lower than outside and filled with gloomy air. The old phonograph was turning slowly, emitting the sound of a boy crying. The walls were covered with scratches, and the ceiling and the floor were covered with all kinds of photos. The house was also filled with a foul odor.
