I am in the horror game, scrambling to steal the male lead's halo

noon.

In the courtyard of the mountain temple, there was a very long table covered with a large red cloth.

In front of the table, there were colorful banners, and on them were more than a dozen brand new cushions neatly placed.

Several people placed the offerings side by side on the long table. The man with the black turban walked forward and lit a few incense sticks as offerings.

He turned around and said in a cold voice, "Kneel down and pray. Be sure to concentrate. Don't open your eyes or move. Do you understand?"

"clear."

A few people found a cushion near the back and kneeled down like the villagers.

With your palms facing up, place your head on the ground in front of your knees, with your hands just on either side of your forehead.

This posture reminded Gu Chaoxi of the ancients who used to worship devoutly, which meant praying for blessings.

The man in the black turban seemed to be chanting some prayer-like words, mumbling something under his breath.

He held a stick of incense and walked around each person, gently tapping their head with his finger.

When he finished a circle, the incense in his hand had burned halfway. He put the incense back in and knelt down on the cushion in the front.

With eyes closed, only ears can hear sounds.

The moment the man in the black turban stopped talking, the air was so quiet that you could almost hear a pin drop.

No one spoke, everyone remained in this posture.

Gu Chaoxi held his breath and concentrated, carefully feeling the sounds coming from around him.

The most obvious sound was their breathing, and then she heard a slight "click".

It was like accidentally stepping on a dry branch, the sound was crisp and faint.

Then the wind blew slowly over, and the sparse hair beside my ears fluttered.

There were footsteps, like someone walking on tiptoe.

After a long while, something soft fell into the palm of her hand.

She just felt her palm itchy and subconsciously wanted to grab that thing with her hand, but then she remembered what the man in the black turban said.

Can't move.

Sighing in his heart, Gu Chaoxi remained as he was without moving.

It was a soft, slender thing that rubbed against her palm, bringing with it a cool feeling, and then slowly left her palm.

After a while, a light pressure fell on her head.

It felt like having a book on my head, but the feeling only lasted for a few seconds before disappearing.

Immediately afterwards, Gu Chaoxi felt that his whole body became lighter.

She still closed her eyes and listened carefully. The surroundings were still quiet, as if nothing had happened.

I don't know how long I knelt like this before the voice of the man in the black turban suddenly rang out.

"Everyone, the sacrifice is over. The mountain goddess will bless us!"

The villagers kneeling in front of them all stood up, waving their arms and shouting, celebrating the success of the sacrifice.

Gu Chaoxi then raised her head and glanced at her hands. They were clean and the soft touch just now seemed to have never happened.

Looking up, they saw the goddess of the mountain in the main hall still staring at them quietly with her eyes.

Nothing seems to be different.

A milky white panel appeared in front of me.

【Dear players】

[Congratulations on completing the sacrificial ceremony]

[The remaining number of players in this game: 5]

【Exiting】

[Players please show your ID card]

Gu Chaoxi simply knelt on the ground and took out the black name card from his pocket.

On the side with the name written on it, the bat's red eyes are still alluring.

She picked up the black card and placed it against a card swiping area displayed on the screen.

[Beep! 】

【Verification successful】

【Wish you a happy life】

Then there was a five-second countdown.

Gu Chaoxi held the black card in his hand and looked up at the Mountain Goddess in the main hall again.

This time it seemed different, as a transparent shadow began to move.

It was a girl's fair face. She was wearing a pale blue gauze dress and holding a jade ruyi in her hand.

Perhaps feeling her gaze, the girl slowly raised her eyes and smiled kindly.

A large patch of thick fog once again obscured Gu Chaoxi's vision. When the fog cleared, she was sitting where she had originally eaten.

The hot pot in front of me had already solidified, and there was still a little residual hot pot smell in the air.

She took the phone from the table and took a look. It was 10:24 p.m. on October th.

It seems that the time in the plane is consistent with the real time.

"Throw these away. I'm too lazy to wash them."

Qin Wei pursed her lips in disdain.

Gu Chaoxi blinked: "So where we entered the plane, we will still be in the same place after we come out?"

"Well, it remains unchanged."

"Add WeChat so we can get in touch easily."

She shook the phone in her hand and looked at Pei Yan who was sorting his clothes.

When the man heard her voice, he lowered his eyes and looked over: "Okay."

"I want one too! Why do you only remember Pei Yan?"

Qin Wei was a little unhappy, and also squeezed over with her mobile phone, shouting that she wanted to add her on WeChat.

She thought, since everyone will be in the same plane in the future, why not add them all?

"Shen Yao and the others, do you have contact information?"

"No need to add him, he will come to us if he has something."

Pei Yan was fiddling with his phone and said this without even looking up. Gu Chaoxi didn't quite understand.

Qin Wei pulled the corners of her mouth into a smile, as if she was somewhat ashamed of Pei Yan's behavior, and turned to smile at Gu Chaoxi.

"Shen Yao is just an IT geek and a geek. Don't bother with him."

"Oh."

She thought about it, her short black hair draped softly on her forehead, almost blocking half of her peach blossom eyes. She looked like a very well-behaved person, but it seemed that she was not very talkative sometimes.

She always thought that the word "otaku" refers to fat boys, but Shen Yao is handsome.

Not really.

Maybe he has social phobia, she thought, and gave a definition of Shen Yao in her mind.

"Gu Zhaoxi is gone."

Pei Yan walked to the door, turned sideways and called her.

She was stunned for a moment, then waved at Qin Wei, who was still worrying about the things on the table: "Then let's go first!"

She trotted over and saw that Pei Yan's slightly furrowed brows suddenly relaxed.

Qin Wei called them from behind: "Come and play with me when you have time!"

"I know!" She waved her hand vigorously with her back to Qin Wei, and followed Pei Yan out.

There were still only a few people on the street, making it seem particularly deserted.

She looked up. Today's sunlight was a little dazzling, and the blue sky and white clouds were so vivid.

Compared with the weirdness in this plane, this real world makes her feel that she is truly alive.

When he put his hand into his pocket and touched the ID card, Gu Chaoxi couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth.

The other world, eh? So what?

Maybe one day, she will unlock the secret of this other world?
