After experiencing a mental stimulation and conflict, most people would lie on the ground in a daze like a dead person.

Instead, Ye Xi just touched her waist and abdomen which were painful from hitting the ground, and then she slowly stood up.

"Why do I feel so chilling?"

"Char, hurry up, something's wrong here."

Charles lay on the ground and whimpered a few times before responding to Ye Xi.

She showed a painful expression. The experience just now was like falling directly to the ground from a high altitude, causing her body to be paralyzed.

"Where are we currently, and are we still alive?"

Ciel held her forehead and suddenly felt a sharp pain in her waist, which made her jump up on the spot.

"Ugh...it hurts!"

"It's normal for it to hurt. It proves that you're still quite lucky."

In order to help Charles regain his sanity, Ye Xi came to her side and pinched Charles's soft waist muscles.

Immediately afterwards, Xiaoyou also got up and was stunned by the scene in front of her.

The current location is still in the abandoned house, and the structure is the same as what I saw when I first came in.

But the strange thing was that the wooden walls that were rotten at the beginning were all brand new, and all the furniture was floating in the air. Sometimes you could hear hissing in the air, which was really creepy.

The picture became dark, as if it was midnight, and the sun turned into moonlight, shining into the interior through the gaps between the wood.

The painting that originally floated on the table also disappeared, replaced by exquisite furniture such as chairs and flower pots suspended in the air.

"I'm sensitive, so please don't touch my waist casually in the future, okay?"

"Okay, okay, I just wanted to cheer you up."

"Everyone has sensitive spots, but I will pay attention to it in the future."

Ciel stated that his waist was a sensitive area because he was ticklish.

But in Ye Xi's opinion, Xia Er's real sensitive point should be her pointed ears.

Whenever she got excited, her ears would turn red, looking like ice cream dipped in strawberry jam.

After regaining his composure, Ye Xi discovered that Xiao You was wandering nearby, looking at those objects that could float without any help of any force, with an inexperienced look on his face.

"Where is this place? What did we just encounter?"

"It seems we have been drawn into the world of the painting."

"A world in a painting?"

While Ye Xi was thinking, his eyes were always wandering, as if something was watching him.

Once Ye Xi looked at one of them, they disappeared again.

"Looking at the structure here, we're roughly still in the house, but it's not realistic here."

"Interesting, is this the otherworldly version of an escape room?"

Thinking of escaping the secret room, Ye Xi suddenly became interested.

The thought of finding clues and escaping from this well-known house is exciting.

Ye Xi turned around and came to the wooden door, it was still locked and did not move at all.

This implies that only by moving forward can you see clues and results. Moreover, the space on the first floor is very spacious, and there is a staircase leading to the second floor not far ahead.

"Xiaer, Xiaoyou, let's go upstairs and take a look first."

Ye Xi called out his name and moved to the stairs.

I’ve seen the first floor before. Although this is a world in a painting, if it is really a structure of an escape room, there will always be some differences.

For example, deadly traps, hidden mechanisms, mysterious events and other elements will appear inadvertently.

What can be seen at present is that except for the floating table and chairs in the living room, the first floor is empty all around, with some shadows moving from time to time.

But gradually, Ye Xi discovered something was wrong.

"Ciel?"

Ye Xi stood here for a while, but Xiaer and Xiaoyou didn't show up. When she turned around, her eyes widened instantly.

The scene behind him was empty, and Charles and Xiaoyou disappeared as if they had evaporated from the face of the earth!

Now Ye Xi is the only one left in the house, and no one knows where they have gone.

"Where did they go?"

Ye Xi asked this question, and then heard a sound on the second floor, the kind of sound made by scraping wood.

The atmosphere suddenly became weird, and the quiet house was broken by the sound. Ye Xi walked up following the sound.

This feeling is slightly familiar. Perhaps it's because my imagination is too rich and I think of this place as an escape room.

The strange disappearance of his companion made Ye Xi alert.

Recalling the black shadow she had accidentally seen just now, she realized that there might be other people here.

When Ye Xi went up the stairs, she always felt a chill on her back, but she did not look back, even though there was something following her.

Compared with the structure of the first floor, the second floor is much narrower, and a corridor that stretches to the end suddenly appeared in front of Ye Xi.

On the right side of the middle of the corridor there is a closed door, and outside the door there is a tall and thin shadow.

It is completely black, with long limbs and a strange black mist emanating from its body. Its head is round like a stick figure and it has a pair of glowing white eyes.

When it noticed Ye Xi, Ye Xi was also looking at it.

"What a strange creature, but it doesn't look very intelligent."

Just after Ye Xi looked at it for a few seconds, Ye Xi realized that the sound he had just heard was actually caused by this guy.

It had three sharp fingers, which rubbed against the wooden wall, making some harsh sounds.

Ye Xi didn't know what its motive was, but it stopped immediately when it saw him.

Then, its body gradually became twisted, and with a tiny roar, it turned into an open door.

There was light inside the door, and I couldn't see what was on the other side at all.

But Ye Xi's intuition told him that if he wanted to get out of here, he had to enter that door.

Sure enough, while Ye Xi was still considering whether to go in, the door began to close slowly.

"and many more!"

Ye Xi ran over quickly, and in the process, he saw a dark shadow and mist leaning against the wall out of the corner of his eye.

They were lingering in the corridor on the second floor. They all had a pair of eyes that glowed white, watching Ye Xi run towards the door.

According to observation, this is the only door that is open at the moment, and the door in the middle of the corridor is closed.

Ye Xi came to the door, but before she could react, a big black hand quickly grabbed Ye Xi's hand and pulled her inside, and then the door closed.

In the corridor on the second floor, dark shadows and black fog were revealed one after another and were gathering towards one point.

A figure in a robe and a hood appeared before her eyes. She held a notebook in both hands and then raised it up.

The notebook was opened out of thin air, and a key was stuck between the pages.

"The security of the Rhineland...is entrusted to your hands..."
