Encountered a ghost wall as soon as I came in?
Lin Yuan was also a bit overwhelmed internally; honestly, he regretted it.
But since things had come to this, regret was meaningless, so he could only comfort the Photographer: "Since we're here, let's make the best of it. Maybe the Girl drove here, and we can catch a ride back with her later."
The Photographer's eyes lit up at his words: "Oh, right, why didn't I think of that?"
"Let's go!" Lin Yuan gestured, and the two walked towards the Lingshan Funeral Home's security booth.
The previous light had also come from there; countless small insects densely surrounded the light bulb under the eaves, flying and swirling, forming a beautiful and mysterious scene.
On the stone tablet at the main entrance nearby, huge characters were carved: Lingshan Funeral Home.
Inside the booth, an old man was watching TV, his eyes fixed on the screen, not even noticing someone approaching.
Lin Yuan walked to the side of the door and knocked.
Thump-thump-thump! ~!
"Old man!!"
The old man looked up in confusion and asked in a hoarse voice: "Who is it? Is something wrong?"
"Old man, there's a Girl here who does makeup for the deceased; she asked me to come over. Where does she work?"
"Oh, oh~~ Little Zhang, she's in the makeup room. You follow this road straight ahead, go all the way to the end, then turn left. The room with the light on is it."
After speaking, he pressed the controller in his hand and opened the retractable gate.
Accompanied by a creaking sound, the door slowly opened.
Lin Yuan smiled and expressed his gratitude: "Thank you, old man!"
"No problem!"
He then sat back in his chair and continued watching TV.
Lin Yuan led the Photographer through the main gate of the Lingshan Funeral Home, one walking in front, the other timidly following behind.
They followed the route the old man indicated, heading towards the room with the light.
Since it was already past ten at night, the temperature had plummeted, and with no lights on at night, it added to the eerie and terrifying atmosphere.
The Photographer felt a chill run through him, as if cold air was seeping out.
The two groped their way forward in the dark, with only the faint moonlight casting a soft glow.
Suddenly!
Ouch~~
The Photographer accidentally tripped over a stone and fell head over heels on the spot.
Lin Yuan quickly turned on his phone's flashlight and helped the Photographer up.
"Are you alright?"
"I'm fine..." The Photographer patted the dust off his body, looking shaken.
However, the next second, when he followed the light and saw several large, red characters carved on the stone in front of him, he jumped up in fright on the spot.
"Oh my god~~"
Lin Yuan was also startled by his loud shout.
However, after carefully reading the inscription, he immediately became annoyed and slapped the Photographer.
He said, exasperated: "What are you screaming about? It's just a stone tablet! Do you have to be like this?"
The Photographer heard him and looked down carefully, only then realizing he had been overly frightened.
He scratched his head with an embarrassed smile: "I... I'm really scared, bro. Why don't you call that Girl and ask her to pick us up? God knows where she is. If we keep looking like headless flies, who knows how long it will take."
Lin Yuan was speechless and shook his head helplessly: "She said she had to do makeup for two Clients tonight. Do you think she has time?"
"That's true, I guess."
Helplessly, the two could only continue walking.
However, after walking for about ten minutes, they discovered, to their horror, that as they walked, the light they had seen earlier was gone!!
They were lost!!
Now Lin Yuan was also dumbfounded, and a strange sense of fear crept over him.
The Photographer was already so scared that his voice trembled: "Bro, do you think we've run into a 'ghost wall'? We're just going around in circles and can't get out?"
"I heard people say that's what a 'ghost wall' is like. That female Client isn't a female ghost, is she?"
When Lin Yuan heard him say that, combined with the current situation, he also felt a chill and became extremely flustered.
How could they get lost when they were walking towards the light?
But just as he was thinking about what to do next, the Photographer started acting up again.
"Bro..."
Hearing the trembling voice, Lin Yuan impatiently replied: "What now?"
"I... I suddenly feel a coldness in my knees, as if something is licking my knees..."
"Oh my god, help! The female ghost is here!" The Photographer's mental defenses completely collapsed, and he screamed in terror.
Lin Yuan was also completely broken by his words, his skin crawling with goosebumps, and he took off running.
He ran and cursed: "Damn it, are you trying to scare me to death?!"
Seeing this, the Photographer also quickly chased after him.
The two ran wildly, without choosing a path.
In the darkness, they constantly felt as if something was chasing them from behind, even feeling as if it was about to touch them.
The more they thought this, the more their hearts pounded, and they didn't dare to look back, running for their lives.
Netizens in the live stream saw this scene and were both scared and amused.

— [Let go of that female ghost, let me have her. Please let such a female ghost come to me at night, after all, my hands also need rest.]
— [Indeed, where there is Wolong, there must be Fengchu. Where are ghosts in this world? It's just self-fright. Even if there are female ghosts, so what? Anyway, you can't see them when the lights are off, so just go for it.]
— [As long as you're brave, Sadako goes on maternity leave. As long as you're flirty enough, zombies will break their waists. As long as you're naughty enough, the Ouija Board spirit will let you ride it. As long as you're wild enough, xenomorphs are yours for the taking.

— [I originally thought the rogue hero Xu Xian was invincible, but I didn't expect the Death Knights in the live stream to be even better. Whose subordinates are these?!]
They didn't know how long they ran until they suddenly saw a light appear in front of them.
Like grasping a lifeline, the two held their breath and rushed towards it frantically.
Only when they stood under the light did they dare to stop, leaning against the wall and gasping for air.
Looking back at the silent surroundings, with only the sound of insects, the two exchanged glances, their eyes still holding the remnants of their fear.
Just then, a surprised female voice suddenly came over: "Oh, you two are..."
"Holy crap!" The two immediately bristled, jumping back sharply and looking in the direction of the voice.
They saw a beautiful Girl in a work uniform standing beside the entrance of the main hall's makeup room, her clear, bright eyes full of curiosity.
The Girl's face was quite delicate, her features exquisite and refined, her hair was styled up, and she wore light makeup, looking very cute and matching her voice.
Clearly, this should not be a female ghost.
Lin Yuan composed himself and asked in confusion: "Excuse me, are you Miss Zhang?"
The Girl nodded at his words: "You are... the one selling houses?"
"Yes!" Lin Yuan clicked his tongue, a bit surprised. There was a strong contrast between such a beautiful, cute Girl and the work she did.
Didn't she get scared doing makeup for the deceased late at night?
The Girl looked surprised: "You really came? It's been so long, I thought you weren't coming."
Lin Yuan replied with a wry smile: "My brother and I got lost here. We were following the light earlier, but as we walked, the light disappeared, and we don't know where we ended up."
"Ah, I'm sorry!" The Girl's face showed embarrassment at his words, and she quickly explained: "I don't know what's going on tonight, but there's been a power issue. The power went out several times, and the light just turned off automatically. If I had known you were coming, I would have come to pick you up."]}
