After seeing the yellow but weightless gold ingot in his palm, Chi Yiyin suddenly remembered that he was checking the betrothal gifts in the boudoir before he fell asleep out of nowhere.

But he clearly remembered that what he saw was a box of real gold ingots, not the gold ingots used to burn paper to put on the grave.

How could someone... use paper money as a bride price?

Chi Yiyin slowly sat up straight leaning on the back of the chair, stretched out his palms, and showed the gold ingot that was wrinkled by him in his sleep just now.

But the gold ingot quickly faded in front of his eyes, turning into a piece of snow-white, while blood red seeped from the gold ingot, quickly staining the paper ingot.

It began to collapse, rotting, like a mass of rotten flesh, but still trembling slightly.

Plop, plop...

Like a beating heart.

Before the live broadcast, many viewers' faces turned green, and they subconsciously touched their hearts to confirm that it was still in their chests.

[Damn... I just picked up a piece of paper and was stacking the plane, and I was so scared that I threw the paper away. ]

[Help! Boss, what kind of plot is this triggering again, day! It's all rotten, and it's still jumping! ]

[vomit! ! I'm so **** bad. Fortunately, I didn't encounter this kind of thing, and my sanity value plummeted. ]

If Chi Yiyin hadn't witnessed the whole process with his own eyes, he wouldn't have believed that what looked like a rotten heart in his hand was still a gold ingot before.

Although he wasn't afraid, Chi Yiyin frowned in disgust at the sticky and cold touch of the thing.

Immediately, he got up immediately, put the rotten meat aside, and then quickly walked towards the several wooden boxes in the center of the hall.

The gold ingots taken out of the wooden box became like this, what about the other gold ingots?

You must know that when he opened the box to check before, the boxes were full of gold ingots! Could it be that those are all things like this rotten heart?

But when he lifted the veil and looked at the wooden box, he was shocked in place.

—The thing placed there was not a wooden box at all, it was clearly a coffin!

There was a faint but clear sound of beating coming from inside the coffin.

"Boom...boom!"

The piano sound of the music box overwhelmed this slight sound, and he didn't notice it until he listened closely.

Chi Yiyin didn't care to wipe off the blood stained on his palms, and immediately walked to the coffin, clasped the lid with both hands and lifted it upwards forcefully.

Fortunately, the coffin had not been nailed to death with coffin nails. Although it was a bit heavy, Chi Yiyin was still able to handle it, and lifted the coffin lid with a sudden force.

When he quickly looked into the coffin, even though he was mentally prepared, he was still shocked by the sight in front of him.

Lying in the coffin...is Ma Yuze.

She was wearing a bright red wedding dress, with her hands crossed on her abdomen, her carefully drawn eyebrows and eyes were beautiful and moving, and her bright red lipstick made her white skin even more. And she has a serene expression, a smile on her lips, gold, jade, pearls and emerald emeralds dotted her hair, and the luster of jewelry, gold and silver brightened the dark room a little at the moment the coffin was opened.

But she was already out of breath, and her chest didn't rise or fall.

Where did the knocking sound in the coffin come from?

Chi Yiyin's eyes darkened instantly.

No matter why Ma Yuze died, the Ma Yuze he observed was not a character who would be happy because of this marriage.

In contrast, the woman in the wedding dress who wanted to kill him before was more real.

Just as this idea came to his mind, the scene in front of him was like a shattered surface of water, rippling and undulating.

Ma Yuze's face distorted and shattered, from calm and beautiful to ferocious with teeth and claws.

The rosiness on her face also quickly faded away, turning into a lifeless and pale as paper, the contrast of red, white and white was terrifying like coffin makeup. And the hands on her abdomen also quickly grew sharp red nails, several inches long, as sharp as knives.

The next second, when Chi Yiyin collected his concentration and looked again, he found that Ma Yuze was not in the coffin at all, and what was inside was obviously a paper pierced man!

The paper pierced man was wearing a red dress, his pale face was painted thick and stiff, his completely black eyes looked up dully, and the two blobs of red blush on his cheeks were as bright as his lips.

Beside the paper-made man, there were piles of paper-made jewelry and gold ingots, stuffing the entire coffin to the brim.

It was obviously a dead thing made of paper, but Chi Yiyin just felt that the paper-piercing eyeballs were slowly moving from his body to the boudoir behind him, and then slowly moved back to meet his gaze.

The bright red mouth of the paper pierced man grinned, and the arc of the smile expanded stiffly.

The player who accidentally caught sight of the paper piercing man through the screen couldn't help but gasped, feeling a chill down his back, a stiff numbness spreading from the bottom of his feet all the way up, and froze in place under the gaze of the paper piercing man , unable to move.

And the sporadic viewers in Chi Yiyin's live broadcast room even heard the notification sound from the system outside the dungeon.

Cheerful music is accompanied by the sound of salutes, and the system uses mechanical voices to inform these lucky audiences beamingly—[Random events are coming, congratulations on being selected as a lucky player! Zhizharen likes you very much, are you willing to marry her and accompany her forever? 】

The audience yelled in panic and collapsed, kicked over their chairs and turned around in embarrassment to escape. They no longer had the pleasure of just staying out of the way to have fun, and their beating hearts almost jumped out of their mouths. The only remaining thought was to run away. , run!

But the paper-stitched figure slowly emerged from the darkness behind him.

It looks exactly like the one in front of Chi Yiyin's eyes. Its eyes without whites are staring at the audience's fleeing back, its mouth curls up in a stiff and strange arc, and it walks towards the audience unsteadily, as if not worried that he will run away.

The paper piercer even opened and closed his mouth, and sang an out-of-tune ditty in a hoarse and mocking voice.

"First please invite the beautiful women of gold and silver...Second please..."

"The God of Joy will forever be married..."

"Three invitations to the wrong white horse... Gaotang Fushou's family has a long family and prosperous children and grandchildren..."

After hearing this weird song, the audience turned around in horror, but saw the paper piercing man slowly smile at him, as if he had been waiting for him to turn around.

Then, the paper piercing man rushed towards him suddenly, and rushed in front of him in an instant, his vision was blood red.

The audience's eyes tighten into dots.

"Ah ah ah ah ah-!"

The screams stopped abruptly.

The paper piercing man hugged the audience in an intimate gesture of hugging. The red sleeves made of paper blocked the audience's body, while his arm was hanging on the paper piercing figure, hanging down softly, and then the whole person turned to the audience. slide down.

Only his head was still stuck in the paper piercing man's arms, supported by it.

After a long while, the Zhizha talent slowly regained his movements and pulled back his blood-soaked paper arm.

In its hand, there is a heart that is still beating.

Blood was dripping all over the ground, and the paper piercer also rolled his eyes with a smile, and hummed the last line of libretto.

"…never separate."

The system fired a salute: [Congratulations to the survivor and the paper piercer for marrying, a hundred years of marriage, never to be separated! 】

The situation of the few viewers who were randomly assigned to paper sticks was also shown in Chi Yiyin's live broadcast room in the form of a small window floating.

The audience who saw this scene were all silent. They stared blankly at the small window, only feeling a chill creeping up their bones, feeling the same fear.

In the other small window, the audience wanted to turn around and run as soon as they heard the cue, but when he turned around suddenly, he was caught off guard with a paper piercer, and was immediately frightened out of his wits. A blank madness shouted out.

But soon, his heart was forcibly taken out by the paper piercer.

"If you want to marry me, let me see what kind of heart you have."

The paper piercing man grinned and squinted his eyes with a smile.

When the Zhizharen hummed an out-of-tune tune, finally some viewers before the live broadcast couldn't bear it any longer, and frantically sent barrage like crazy, as if this could relieve their fear in their hearts.

There are also spectators who are terrified and want to quit, but more experienced people say that it is impossible.

From the first second they entered the live broadcast room, their survivor IDs had been recorded by the system. Even if they quit later, it would be useless, as they would still be in the random list.

That being the case, it's better to watch the live broadcast all the time, so that at least when you are randomized, you can also know what happened, how to survive, and not die inexplicably.

But other players in the live broadcast hall heard that there was a random arrival in Chi Yiyin's live broadcast room, but they immediately rushed in in large numbers excitedly, all wanting to see the plight of the random players.

[This dude's heart has been ripped out hahahahaha! Look at how stupid he is, he can't hide from this, he deserves to die, he deserves to die! ]

[Encore! Encore! another one! Ha ha ha ha! ]

Generally, the system will not be randomized one after another, that is to say, after this randomization, it has temporarily entered a safe period.

When it’s nothing to do with them, the players before the live broadcast are always the craziest entertainers, like watching bullfights and cockfights, and having fun with **** deaths.

Only when you are in it can you know how to be afraid.

It wasn't until the four spectators who were randomized to paper piercings all died unprepared, and the floating window disappeared, that the old spectators slowly reappeared.

[Unexpectedly, there will be random events in this dungeon...]

[It’s too scary, no matter what strength I have in the dungeon, now I’m lying defenseless in the temporary residence, covered in pajamas, if this is randomized, what a fart! ]

[hiss! Newcomer, has this game always been this exciting? It felt like Sadako crawled out of the TV. A polite question without malice, may I ask how many more people can die? I haven't seen enough. ]

But there are also experienced veteran players who have quickly come to their senses and began to analyze the identity of the paper piercer.

Someone noticed the ditty hummed by the paper piercer: [The **** of joy is not a god, it refers to a ghost. In the past, people were afraid of committing a taboo, and there was a saying that people should not be mentioned during the day, and ghosts should not be mentioned at night, but ghosts should be mentioned. That's why the ghost was given such a name. ]

[Xi Shen Yong knot heart...meaning it is a ghost and also a bride at the same time, isn't it? ]

[Grass! Then why didn't the anchor get pierced by the paper? ]

[Just now the anchor held a rotten heart in his hand, what do you mean? Is this the heart that was plucked out by a paper pricker before? ]

Let the audience discuss fiercely, Chi Yiyin, who has not turned on the permission to view the barrage, is completely undisturbed, and is still focused on looking at the paper-stitched man in the coffin.

Chi Yiyin was silent for a moment because the living person turned into a paper figurine, and then under the gaze of the paper piercing man, instead of being afraid, he sighed and slowly reached out to the paper piercing man.

"Yu Ze..."

As soon as the call came out, the paper-stitched eyeballs blinked suddenly, and then the two inlaid black eyeballs fell from the face, bounced a few times and rolled down to Chi Yiyin's feet.

At the same time, the whole paper pierced person seemed to be soaked in water, quickly collapsed and shriveled, as if invisible hands were squeezing the paper into a ball, and then blood flowed out, staining the paper ball red, moldy, and rotten.

The other gold, silver and jade wares that were also piled up in the coffin also ushered in the end of deformation and decay, and finally fell into the coffin, rolled around, and stopped moving.

Chi Yiyin subconsciously followed the dropped eyeballs, and when she looked back again, in just a few seconds, there were only rotten lumps of meat left in the coffin.

"Bang, bang..."

It beats weakly.

Like a coffin full of rotting hearts.

The stench hit his face, and Chi Yiyin couldn't even open his eyes, which quickly aroused physiological tears.

This scene made the audience who had just guessed the source of the heart turn pale.

[I have never seen such a disgusting thing in my life, vomit! ]

[…my heart hurts. ]

Just when Chi Yiyin's vision was blurred by tears, he suddenly felt light in his hands, and the coffin lid that he had been supporting disappeared.

When he looked again, he found that not only the coffin lid, but also the coffin and the rotten heart inside had all disappeared.

Not only that, but the boudoir he was in was also changing silently.

A small sound came, like a crawling bug in the darkness, rustling.

But when Chi Yiyin raised his eyes, he was shocked to find that the exquisite mahogany furniture and expensive ornaments before were all stiff and dull. After looking carefully, I realized that those were all made of paper!

It's like the paper people and horses sold in the longevity shop and burned to the dead, but what appeared around Chi Yiyin was a whole house and supplies made of paper.

In the darkness, two figures stood behind the curtain, silently watching Chi Yiyin.

When Chi Yiyin saw the projection falling on the ground, his eyes immediately became serious, and he strode over and lifted the curtain with a raised hand.

But what appeared in front of him was not NPCs or other players, but...

Two boys made of paper.

Boys and girls, one red and one green, with two blushes on their miserable white round faces, even their smiles looked weird in the dark.

The audience before the live broadcast suddenly met the red and green two people, their hairs stood on end in fright, and their scalps were about to explode.

But Chi Yiyin was extremely calm, and even reached out to pick up the girl among them, carefully examining its facial features.

[Fuck! Boss, I call you big brother, uncle, can dad please! Take it far away, don't come here! ! ]

[Wori! This won't trigger another random event, will it? Although it is reasonable to say that there will be no front and rear feet at random, but there is no reason at all at random... I don't want to experience paper sticking people once! ]

[Suddenly a little scared, anchor, take this thing away! Reward points +100]

[The host blesses me from being randomized. Reward points +20]

[me too, +10]

…

Chi Yiyin was annoyed by the continuous notifications from the live broadcast, so he simply turned off the notification of tipping points and checked the paper puppet in his hand again.

He always felt that this girl's facial features looked a bit like her younger sister Ma Yulan... According to actual rumors, the younger siblings in the house did not escape the catastrophe, and all of them died that night. Perhaps, after killing her sister, the female ghost made her into a paper puppet so that she could stay by her side forever.

But if this is the case, then the boy next to him may be the young master Ma Qing.

——It was also the younger brother he had seen standing beside Master Ma and clapping his hands happily at the wedding in his dream. A piece of gold, coveted by greed.

Chi Yiyin looked sideways slowly, looking at the open space in the hall where the coffin had disappeared.

That being the case, the rotten hearts that filled the coffin may be the hearts of all the people who died on the wedding night.

Those people bury their brides in coffins, brides give their gifts to death, and bury their hearts in coffins.

The moment this guess surfaced in his mind, Chi Yiyin's eyes darkened.

He even had the urge to find Ma Yuze back immediately, apologize to her for his previous wrong guess, and propose again to take her out of this hell.

Clearing the dungeon doesn't matter anymore, as long as Chi Yiyin is around, Master Ma's wish will never come true!

This is not my dear home, this is... a home from which I can never escape.

It's not fair to Ma Yuze, who died innocently, to stay in such a home!

Chi Yiyin made up her mind, her eyes became firm again.

As for the rule that if you don't clear the dungeon, you will die... He snorted lightly and didn't care.

Even if he drilled through the dungeon, he could still find a way out—he believed in his ability.

After waking up from the nightmare, seeing the betrothal offerings all over the floor and Ma Yuze in the coffin, Chi Yiyin realized that maybe Ma Yuze had died before killing anyone on the wedding night.

The rumors were wrong, it was not that Ma Yuze committed suicide after massacring the Ma family and her husband's family, but that she died first.

Then, the ghost kills people.

Otherwise, how could Ma Yuze have such a large amount of sacrificial objects, even a coffin and paper objects prepared for her.

If these things appeared before, perhaps Chi Yiyin would still have doubts. But just now, the female ghost took the initiative to lure him into a dream, which not only allowed him to see the memory of the female ghost's marriage, but also allowed him to recover part of the memories of the real haunted house, and asked him why he didn't choose Master Ma...

The female ghost's hatred and rejection of him was shaken.

Perhaps it was because in this home where Ma Yuze's voice had never been heard, Chi Yiyin, an outsider, was willing to speak out for her and demand justice for her. Perhaps, it was because Chi Yiyin's words were too deceptive.

The female ghost's hatred of everyone in Gushu Town was loosened, and she was willing to try, letting Chi Yiyin see her past bit by bit.

She tried again and again, and as long as Chi Yiyin showed a little fear or disgust, and she found out that he didn't really want to help her, she would be angry and backlash because of being deceived.

Unexpectedly, Chi Yiyin took every step correctly and restrained the female ghost's resentment.

——The woman was dressed in red and died from time to time, the most vicious.

Chi Yiyin was a little taken aback.

No wonder, no wonder Ma Yuze angrily scolded him for not knowing anything before. It turned out that the rumors reversed the cause and effect, making the original truth completely different from the rumors.

Because of the wrong guidance, he guessed the truth about Ma Yuze wrongly, so he failed to write her down before.

Chi Yiyin immediately took out his notebook, and quickly wrote down everything he heard and saw in his dream.

Including the song before getting on the sedan chair.

The first is to invite beautiful women in gold and silver, and the second is to invite the **** of joy to be married forever... The **** of joy is a pronoun for ghosts, and this is definitely not something that should be sung at a wedding.

unless…

The wedding party is dead.

When everything unfolded in front of Chi Yiyin's eyes, his mind quickly followed through all the clues he saw, and the truth about Ma Yuze was ready to come out.

This time, the written content did not disappear. The silver hook painted on iron, like a knife that splits chains, exposed the truth buried under the joyful harmony, cruel and full of resentment.

Chi Yiyin looked down at the notebook in his hand, and after a while, he closed it with a sigh.

"Miss Ma..."

The figure of the female ghost slowly appeared in the darkness.
