How to Build a Haunted House

"..."

Hearing a series of notification sounds in his head, Chu Ci was speechless.

I don’t know how this was generated. Anyway, it has been dormant in the family magic weapon, and the haunted house system that was awakened by Chu Ci at the age of six knows to urge the host to do (xia) live (ren), dry (xia) live (ren) , dry (xia) live (ren), regardless of the situation, regardless of day and night, regardless of cold and heat, can be called the most conscientious contractor.

"Okay, I understand." He replied to the system in his mind: "I will try my best."

"It's good to be scary, but the timing has to be right, otherwise it's too crazy to do so."

"..."

The haunted house system was guaranteed by the host, and settled down again. As it reminded before, it is silently upgrading to change the login location from Qingshan City, Qinglu Province to Chuhua City.

On the other side, the interior of the carriage did not calm down because of what happened before.

The little boy was still kicking his legs and howling. His grandma first comforted him a few words, and then got impatient, patted the boy on the back of the head and stuffed him with a lollipop.

"Little treasure, let's eat this instead of those dirty things."

As she spoke, she glared at Chu Ci, took out two newspapers from the cloth bag she carried with her, laid them on the floor, and greeted her grandson, "Come on, sit down, we'll just sit here!"

"Who is it...you are a young and strong guy, you don't even want to give up a seat to a six-year-old child, and I don't know which parents taught you, so you have no sympathy!"

"You..." Jiang Kai wanted to get angry again when he heard this, and was held back by Chu Ci.

"Calm down," he said, "Eat rabbits."

As he spoke, he stuffed a piece of spicy rabbit meat into Jiang Kai's mouth.

When the old lady saw Chu Ci's peaceful reaction, she became even more arrogant, and said angrily, "Give up your legs."

Chu Ci tucked his legs under the table by the way, looking easy to talk, as if he wasn't the one who just casually threw dozens of catties of the child.

The child's fear came and went quickly, and with the grandmother on the side to protect him, the bear child returned to his true colors after a while, running around in the carriage, touching other people's suitcases, and pulling A handful of female passenger's clothes disturbed everyone in the carriage.

Jiang Kai looked at Chu Ci.

Xueba took out a small model from his backpack at some point and played with it in his hand.

This model is a small house the size of a palm, and it is exquisitely made. It seems that the interior layout can be seen through the window.

Half-hidden by black velvet curtains, through the gaps in the curtains, lies the...

Uh, a creepy skeleton, noticed Jiang Kai's gaze, the skeleton sitting in front of the desk seemed to twist its hip bones "creak-creak-".

What kind of bad taste is this?Jiang Kai was sweating profusely, wondering if he had misread it.

What made him even more confused was that while Chu Ci was playing with the model, he would glance at the brats running around in the carriage from time to time, with an inexplicable look in his eyes...

love?

This kind of love is not the kind that the elders treat the younger, but like a butcher who sells meat when he meets a lively piglet.

Jiang Kai was taken aback by his own imagination.

He scratched his duck neck and comforted himself: "Don't think about it, don't think about it, it must be because I have too many suspense movies."

……not at all.

Chu Ci thought to himself: This little fat man looks very frightened and a bit annoying, he needs to be educated.

——That's him!

·

All is well.

The little fat man was frightened by Chu Ci just now, and he was still in the stage of fear, which really made Chu Ci calm down for a while.

However, the nature of the bear child is to challenge the impossible. After conquering most of the carriage, he still snuggled up to Chu Ci.

Chu Ci ignored him, and continued to play with his model against the light.

The bear boy looked at it for a while, then stretched out his hand and said, "Play with me!"

Chu Ci ignored him.

Little Bawang's strength came up, and he sat down on the ground and howled.

"I want it! Give it to me! Give it to me!"

His grandma was taking a nap on the seat, and she was so annoying, "Go get it if you want to play."

She raised her voice a bit: "Isn't it just a toy, what's the big deal for children to play with? How old are you, what do you care about with children?"

With the support of his grandma, the little bear jumped up and snatched the model from Chu Ci's hands, and ran to the side.

He took the model and broke it back and forth to see if the house could not be disassembled, and he had to put it on the ground and step on it.

"Hey, what are you doing?" Jiang Kai was really tired of the pair of bear parents and bear children, and he no longer cared about Xiaobao's age, and he stretched out his hand to grab the things back.

"You too," he educated Chu Ci, "It's so easy to talk. Let him go when he's young? This kid is not serious, what if he breaks your model?"

"How come? My little treasure is smart." The old lady sneered while protecting her grandson.

As soon as she finished speaking, she heard a "snap". From the corner of her eye, she saw that her grandson seemed to have broken a door of the hut, and immediately changed her words: "Isn't it just a shabby house, how much is it worth? My little treasure didn't do it on purpose." of."

Jiang Kai didn't even bother to say anything, and started a chase with Xiaobao: "Give it to me."

"Don't give it, don't give it!"

It was also bad luck, the train quickly entered a tunnel, the surrounding light was gradually swallowed up, and the eyes were completely dark.

Because of his small size and nimbleness like a monkey, Jiang Kai didn't catch him all at once. In the end, he only saw Xiongzi pinching the broken latch and making faces with him, very proud of it.

"Oh, I'm so mad!" Jiang Kai angrily sat back on his seat, ready to wait for the train to leave the tunnel before picking up the brat.

At this moment, he heard Chu Ci smile.

"The house is not worth much." He said: "But it is my family's ancestral heritage. It has a spirit and a small mind. If you offend it, be careful and regret it."

The old lady who was sitting in the aisle below snorted, very disdainful.

But she didn't sneer or sneer for a long time after that, not only that, even her mischievous grandson who was like a living monkey didn't make any more movements.

Jiang Kai was slightly surprised.

Then, for some reason, he saw Chu Ci playing with a palm-sized house model with his right hand through the light from the mobile phone screen of a passenger in front of him.

"Huh? When did you get it back?" Jiang Kaixin thought that the model was not in the hands of the bear just now.

He blinked and looked carefully again, only to see that the door of the model was obviously broken just now, but now it seemed to be closed, and the window was closed as before, but the creaking skeleton inside was gone.

The mobile phone of the passenger in front flickered, and Jiang Kai sharply saw two black shadows, one tall and one short, flashing across the window of the cabin.

The tall ones were thin and shriveled, while the short ones were round and fat. Their shadows flashed through the gaps in the curtains, and for some reason, Jiang Kai seemed to be able to see their panic from above.

"Amitabha Hallelujah." Chu Ci heard the little friend on the opposite side patting his chest to comfort himself: "Don't think too much, don't think too much, I must have watched too many horror movies and scare myself."

Chu Ci: "..."

not at all.

·

From Qingshan City to Chuhua City, you have to pass through the Yunling Mountains. This is one of the largest mountain ranges in Huaguo. There are many tunnels inside, and the length can be ranked among the best in the world.

What the train passes through is the first few tunnels in the world.

It took a full 10 minutes before the sun was seen outside the window again.

After all, people are light-seeking animals. When the eyes light up, even the atmosphere in the carriage becomes more lively than before.

Jiang Kai blinked, subconsciously looking at the model in Chu Ci's hand.

"What? My eyes are wide open, I'll play with it for you." Chu Ci directly put the model on the table.

"No... I'm just curious about how it came into your hands again. Do you have two models?"

"That's not true, one is hard enough to serve..." Chu Ci whispered.

Jiang Kai was puzzled, and wanted to ask him what he meant, when he suddenly heard the passenger next to him in the aisle exclaim: "Hey, what are you doing, auntie?!"

It was only then that he noticed a continuous "popping" sound coming from his ears, and the sound was a bit familiar.

"Auntie, don't be like this. The child is still young, so speak up if you have something to say. Who will call the flight attendant over?"

"Why do these words sound so familiar to me?" Jiang Kai complained while turning his head, shocked by the scene in front of him.

I saw the unreasonable old lady just now slumped on the ground, and her grandson Xiaobao was pressed on her knees. The old lady pressed the child's back hard with one hand, as if trying to push something, and raised the other hand high. , and then landed heavily on the little boy's buttocks, making a "slap" sound with each handprint.

The brat, who had been hated by people and dogs just now, seemed to have been frightened stupid now, tightly clutching grandma's arm, scratching out several deep red marks.

After a long time, he opened his mouth and cried, "Wow——"

"hiss--"

Seeing such a scene, Jiang Kai felt a pain in his buttocks, recalling the beatings he had suffered all these years, and said sincerely: "I said this voice is kind of kind."

...But why didn't I hear it in the tunnel just now?

At this moment, because he was close, he heard the old lady's murmuring words, and saw that she was out of her mind, as if she had just encountered something and hadn't recovered from it, and shouted tremblingly: "Open the door! Open the door!"

"..."

Where is the door in the train car?

For some reason, Jiang Kai suddenly thought of the two black shadows in the model of Chu Ci, his heart trembled, and the hairs on his back were about to stand on end.

Chu Ci heard the little friend start again: "Amitabha Hallelujah, Immeasurable God, I have watched too many horror movies..."

he:"……"

The flight attendant came very quickly. She heard that someone had an accident in this compartment, so she came directly from the next door to the flight attendant.

"what happened?"

"Someone is sick here!"

"It seems to be claustrophobic." Passengers used their imaginations and actively associated.

"It's hysteria, claustrophobia is not enough to beat a child."

"Look, this kid has been beaten stupid!"

"Whoever said that is stupid."

"..."

The flight attendant choked on these unreliable passengers, and she took two steps forward: "Auntie, what's wrong with you? Do you need to see a doctor? Or we can contact the nearest hospital and get you off at the next stop?"

"Get out of the car?" The old lady finally recovered.

She looked around, still unable to detach herself from the previous scene.

"What time is it?" she asked.

The flight attendant glanced at his watch: "Ten fifteen."

This bus departs from Qingshan City at 09:30, and the time to enter the tunnel is about ten o'clock, that is to say——

"Only in there for 10 minutes?"

"Almost." The flight attendant tactfully persuaded: "The child is still young, so please stop beating and talk about it if you have anything to say."

"Little Treasure?!"

The patter stopped, and the old lady suddenly realized what she had been mechanically beating just now. She trembled, and raised her arm as if she was shocked by electricity, looked at her hand, and then at her grandson with red and swollen buttocks: "You guys just now did not see it?"

"See what?" Passengers around joined in the fun and said, "It's dark in the tunnel, it's strange to see it."

"Yes, it's pitch black..." the old lady murmured.

"I dozed off, and when I came back to my senses, I found myself locked in a dark room. It was pitch black in front of me, and I couldn't see anything, but I could feel something staring at me from behind. That gaze was so cold. Infiltrate."

"I yelled, but no one heard... At this moment, something behind me suddenly moved, making a 'click-click-' sound. I had to run desperately towards the door, but I couldn't find it. When I found the door, I realized that the door was actually broken and couldn’t be pushed open.”

"The sound behind me was getting closer and closer, and I couldn't find Xiaobao. I knocked on the door and asked someone to let me out. I kept knocking and knocking, and suddenly... ah!"

"What's wrong?" the passenger asked.

Older people are more superstitious, and the old lady suddenly realized something while talking.She glanced at the model in Chu Ci's hand in panic, and spat at the passengers: "What's none of your business?"

Then he grabbed his grandson's hand tightly: "Xiaobao, let's go!"

"Eh? Do you want a doctor?" the flight attendant asked.

"Bah, you need a doctor!"

The old lady dragged her crying grandson to another carriage, not even the newspapers on the floor.

The passengers were so annoyed by the grandparents and grandchildren before, so they stood by and watched the excitement, and some people were still unsatisfied, and matched this incident with surprise!The headline that this train is haunted was sent to the circle of friends.

Jiang Kai also wanted to post to Moments, he took out his mobile phone, and suddenly saw the backs of the old lady and the brat.

——One is thin and small, the other is short and fat.

He thought of the two vague shadows he saw in the model of the hut before, and couldn't help shivering.

"What's wrong?" Chu Ci asked.

"Nothing..." Jiang Kai suddenly said, "Chu Ci, do you believe that there are ghosts in the world?"

Chu Ci smiled.

He said: "I believe in socialism with Chinese characteristics."

Jiang Kai: "..."

"Forget it, I didn't say it."

"But you said before that this house has a spirit, and your mind is very small..."

"Yes, not only that, but it is also vengeful and stingy. If anyone moves one of its latches, it can lock people in and torture them repeatedly with [-] kinds of torture. If you can't fix it, you won't be released. Are you afraid?"

"..."

Chu Ci told Jiang Kai ghost stories one by one, and poked the haunted house system in his mind with his spiritual sense.

"system?"

"Severe mood swings detected, points are being calculated."

"20 points of fear emotion have been collected, and the system currently stores 151 points of fear."

"50 points of fear emotion have been collected, and the system currently stores 201 points of fear."

"Collected 1 point, 2 points, 1 point of fear..."

"Repairing the latch costs 10 fear points, which have been deducted from the system's stored fear points."

"Collection of soul fragments x2, please continue to work hard."

The old lady’s fears are x5, x10, x20… so accumulated over time and collected by the system, compared to children who have experienced fewer things because of their simple minds, they don’t have so many fears , only 20 points.

As for the remaining 1 point, 2 points, 1 point... it was contributed by the passengers who heard the horror story, for example, Jiang Kai who was beside him contributed a little.

However, soul fragments are a rare item.

Soul fragments are a little bit of energy that a person actively separates from the body under extreme fear, not just fear, anger, sadness, ecstasy...anything that can cause violent emotional fluctuations may produce soul fragments.As the saying goes, "the six gods have no master", "the soul does not keep its house, and "seven orifices produce smoke" is what it means.

According to the system, soul fragments can nourish the three souls and seven souls, and heal the damaged soul.It's a pity that Chuci had inquired from Aunt Hu. She had lived for so many years and had never heard of any way to collect soul power, let alone use it.

Therefore, Chu Ci's haunted house system is the only one in the world.

Speaking of which, Chu Ci chose the name Haunted House System himself. After he knew the purpose of the family magic weapon, he thought about his fiancé whom he hadn't seen for more than ten years, and felt that he would probably make a living by opening a haunted house in the future.

Qi Ling accepts this name well, and adapts to the times. He made up for the online novels, asked Chu Ci to call himself the system, and upgraded a function of "accumulating fear emotions to exchange items".

Chu Ci: "..."

"Shouldn't all of you spirits be free to give to the master, giving away skills, props and experience, and assisting the master all the way to dominate the world and collect all the beauties, and the younger brothers will become winners in life?"

"Please host less online novels," the system said, "There is no free lunch in this world, please call me the system by the way, thank you."

Chu Ci: "???"

The name has been changed and you still have the face to talk about me? !

"In short..." Chu Ci made some calculations. He used to have limited contact with people. Even if he cultivated a hobby of telling ghost stories and scared the villagers and classmates, he only collected 131 points of fear. Willing to spend.

Soul shards can only be obtained by locking people in haunted houses. In eight years, 12 pieces have been obtained from hooligans who collect protection fees, and the rest are soul shards (chicken), soul shards (pigs), and soul shards. (dog), soul fragment (goose), and more than 100 soul fragments (spicy fragrant pot rabbit), it makes me cry just thinking about it.

"It's all right now," Chu Ci happily counted the accumulated fear points: "Take the train and get back more than 70 points, and there are two soul fragments. This wave is not a loss."

"Sure enough, people in the city are scary, with big brains and wide-ranging ideas, and superstitious. Aunt Hu is right to let me go to college outside."

The world is so big, I want to scare it.

Chu Ci was full of enthusiasm for his career. Although he didn't even have a place of his own, he had already thought about how many people would be scared every day after the haunted house opened, and how to calculate weekly performance, monthly performance, and annual performance.

"drop."

Maybe it was because the little friend's thoughtful expression was too scary, and Jiang Kai next to him didn't know what to think, and contributed another point of fear to Chu Ci.

Chu Ci: "..."

Good in town!
