In an escape game...

Chapter 1 Psychic Town

There is a computer on the empty desktop, and only one live broadcast software is running.

The anchor is neither an e-sports player nor a queen of goods, but a genuine teacher of the people.The beauty effect that comes with the software adds exquisite eyebrows and lipstick to the teacher, making him look full of joy.

Even so, it can't attract the attention of students. On the surface, the number of people in the live broadcast room is very regular. In fact, some students are doing two things and three things at once.The middle-aged male teacher suddenly trembled:

"Like the gift so you don't get lost, the teacher will take you to the highway!"

"Aren't you energetic? I don't see anyone who didn't like it..."

Yun Xubai, who was sitting at the table watching the live online class, chewed the gum in his mouth, and spit out a round and transparent bubble.

Raising his eyelids, he casually gave the teacher a thumbs up, then looked at the phone screen, using two things at once, downloading a new game while listening to the class.

A translucent window popped up on the screen of the mobile phone, with eye-catching square characters written on it:

["Escape Game" is loading...]

[Allow "Escape Game" to access your location? ]

Yun Xubai nodded his permission.

[Create ID: Your ID can be public or hidden. It is hidden by default. If it is public, it will be displayed on the leaderboard and in multiplayer games. ]

Yun Xubai enters in the ID box: Brother Xu.

[The ID already exists. ]

Too lazy to think about it, Yun Xubai clicked randomly on the keyboard, intending to use a string of garbled characters as an ID, but slipped his hand and typed in the word "Baba".

[Creation is successful, welcome player "Baba" to enter the game, you are the 1000086th player in the whole server. ]

Yun Xubai couldn't bear to look directly at him, secretly decided to buy a name change card later.In the game world, there is no problem that krypton gold can't solve.

After opening the game interface, Yun Xubai heard the teacher who was broadcasting live say: "This question is a classic of the college entrance examination, and it will last for a long time. Next, I will pick a classmate to do this question. Who is so lucky..."

An ominous premonition appeared in Yun Xubai's heart, and the next moment, the teacher called his name: "Yun Xubai, turn on the camera and headset to answer."

Names are not a good thing sometimes, and there are always roll calls.

With a raised eyebrow, Yun Xubai turned on the computer's camera and headset.At this moment, a lot of colorful noise appeared on the screen, and the teacher's voice was distorted as if electronic sound effects were added. At first glance, I thought it was the dubbing of a midnight horror movie.

Yun Xubai's eyes darkened and he lost consciousness.

One minute later, the screen returned to normal, but Yun Xubai was nowhere to be found.

"Why is there no one in front of the computer? Yun Xubai?" The teacher frowned: "I was cast??"

...

Yun Xubai felt like he had a short and nightmare dream, and when he opened his eyes again, he saw a completely strange street in front of him.

There are two thin clouds floating in the sky, gloomy and drowsy.There are row upon row of wooden buildings, and the banners hanging in the shops are fluttering in the wind. There are also some small vendors on both sides of the street, but the enthusiasm for selling is not high.There are only a few pedestrians, wearing common clothes and long gowns, like the scene of the Republic of China.

A cold wind blew up on the flat ground, Yun Xubai looked down, and found that the clothes on his body had been changed into a blue gown, the material was smooth, and the cuffs were embroidered with dark patterns.In his hand was a flat wooden box, which was light and weightless.

The phone was not lost, and it was held in his hand, but the screen showed that there was no signal, and the time on it stood still.

Where is this?Why did he suddenly appear here when he was taking online classes at home?

This place is not as real as a dream, Yun Xubai wanted to find out the situation, put aside his doubts temporarily, walked to a pastry stand, and talked to the proprietress: "Madam proprietress, what is this place?"

Yun Xubai is tall, with smooth ups and downs in his bones, and a pair of indifferent phoenix eyes set the style of his entire face.He is born with a good timbre, and he doesn't need to deliberately get close to him, but it also makes people feel good.

The proprietress looked at him a few times, her kind eyes rested on the wooden box he was carrying, and her voice was a few degrees softer than when she was yelling: "Brother, do you come from another place? This is Huojing Town."

As soon as the proprietress finished speaking, a non-fluctuating electronic prompt appeared in Yun Xubai's mind out of thin air:

[Beginner "Baba", triggers the novice task: psychic town. ]

When Yun Xubai heard this voice suddenly, he thought he was hallucinating.

The prompt paused for two seconds and continued:

[Novice task requirements: Survive in the psychic town for seven days.After the task is completed, the official registration qualification of the 'Escape Game' can be obtained. ]

[Background of the psychic town: Huojing Town is a place with beautiful scenery, and the townspeople lived happily until one day, a skinned female corpse appeared in the well in the center of the town, and the well water was stained red with blood. , there will be no more peace in the town...]

[Hint: "Psychic Town" is an ongoing story, as long as a reasonable ending is deduced within the task deadline, you can leave the town early. ]

After listening to it verbatim, Yun Xubai caught the words "escape game". This is the game app he just downloaded, a decryption game with horror elements!

Looking around, Yun Xubai came up with a bold guess - he entered the game world.

Yun Xubai had a strong mental capacity to bear it, so he quickly accepted the situation and analyzed the contents of the notification tone.

The task requirement is to survive in the small town for seven days, which means that there is a fatal danger in the small town.In horror games, the danger doubles after dark. If you want to avoid danger, you must find a relatively safe place to stay before dark.

It is the most efficient way to ask the NPC for news, Yun Xubai asked the proprietress who started closing the stall: "Is there any place to stay in the town?"

The proprietress pointed in the direction: "There is only one hotel in the town, and you can see it 300 meters ahead."

Yun Xubai thanked him and set off to find the hotel.

The hotel is located on the corner of the street. It is a three-story wooden building with a good texture. The word "accommodation" is written on the perforated cover. All the windows are closed tightly without leaving a gap, which looks a bit gloomy.

Yun Xubai saw that the hotel owner was closing the door, so he quickly stepped forward and grabbed the door frame: "Boss, stay."

The hotel owner looked at him through the crack of the door and opened the door a little: "Come in."

After Yun Xubai entered the room, the hotel owner closed the door and locked it, then turned to him and asked, "How many days are you staying?"

Yun Xubai said: "Stay here for a day first."

The hotel owner nodded and walked towards the counter with his hands behind his back: "Come here and check in."

At this time, the game prompt sounded again in Yun Xubai's mind:

[Beginners have 10 original points, and 1 point will be deducted for one night in a hotel. Is it a transaction? ]

[Note: When the score is lower than 0, the mission fails. ]

It turns out that in the game world, points can be used for trading.

Yun Xubai tried to communicate with the game system in his mind: "Yes."

[Beginner "Baba", the transaction is successful, and the remaining points are 9. ]

The hotel owner asked Yun Xubai to sign the guest registration form, and handed him a bunch of keys: "We provide meals here, you can go back to your room first, and the waiter will deliver the meals later."

The name "Psychic Town" is too weird, Yun Xubai is a little concerned.He took the key and left in no hurry, leaning on the counter and chatting with the hotel owner, trying to get some clues about the "well".

"I heard that something happened to the well in the town, do you know the inside story?"

The hotel owner fiddled with the abacus and looked up at him: "Do you really want to hear it?"

Yun Xubai nodded: "Please tell me."

"I didn't want to say it at first, but if you stay here, in case something happens that will affect the reputation of the store." The boss looked at the wall clock, rubbed his palms, and said in a little uneasiness: "The town used to be a beautiful paradise, But a few years ago, a strange incident happened in the town, which changed everything."
