Shen Shuyao followed Rong Shi's gaze and saw that the puppet sitting on the partition in the window looked innocent and there was nothing unusual about it.

But why do the clothes on the puppet look so familiar?

Shen Shuyao turned her head to look at the girl in front of the window, her eyes darkened, Rong Shi was still screaming beside her, she just raised her hand without even looking.

"Don't make a sound."

Rong Shi groaned and noticed something was wrong. He rubbed his chest and stood beside Shen Shuyao to calm down.

Wei Shengyou didn't turn around and paid attention to the movement behind him. On the transparent window cover in front of him, there were a few lines of words vaguely floating on it.

[Puppet Exhibition Hall

1. Keep quiet in the exhibition hall

2. Puppet likes people’s focused gaze

3. The real puppet is among them (cross out) and it’s watching you]

She bent her fingertips slightly and looked at the last line of words with a heavy gaze.

Suddenly, Wei Shengyou's eyes paused, and her expression became solemn as she scanned the puppets in the exhibition hall.

The puppets, who were originally wearing blue and white denim jackets, are now dressed like them.

Moreover, the puppet's originally dull expression became more lifelike.

The puppet she was looking at was already almost like her.

Wei Sheng closed his eyes and shouted coldly to the person behind him, "Close your eyes quickly."

There was silence behind me.



"Ding."

"Ding."

"Ding."

A strange bell rang suddenly, and Wen Ruyan's face turned ugly on the other side.

Something happened over there.

"Excuse me, what's the reason for this bell?" Xing Qiu raised his hand and shook his head slightly.

The sound of the bell was really weird and made people dizzy.

"There must be something going on over there Rong Shi." Wen Ruyan turned on the intercom, but no matter how he called, there was no movement on the other end.

The walkie-talkie was redeemed with his points, so it should not break down so easily.

Seeing that his expression was getting more serious, Xing Qiu felt a little more worried when he thought of Wei Shengyou and Rong Shi being together, "Then let's go find them. There doesn't seem to be any clues here."

This should be the place where puppeteers make puppets. Various tools are randomly placed on the ground, and the flames in the fireplace are burning.

There are ready-made puppets hanging on the wall next to them. They are all wrapped with thin threads, their heads lowered, and the corners of their mouths are grinning to the base of their ears.

Xing Jing glanced at Xing Qiu in disapproval.

There was a sudden chill behind her. Wen Ruyan glanced at the puppets with thin strings hanging on the surrounding walls and said coldly: "It seems that before we worry about them, we need to worry about ourselves."

They were too distracted to notice the changes in the room just now because they were worried. Now he realized that the space of this room seemed much smaller than when they entered.

As soon as these words came out, Xing Jing immediately protected Xing Qiu and looked around defensively. It only took him a moment to realize that something was wrong.

Was that puppet on the wall that big to begin with?

"What, what's going on?"

Xing Qiu also noticed something strange in the room, and subconsciously reached out and grabbed the hem of Xing Jing's clothes.

Xing Jing lowered his eyes and put his hand in front of her.

The three of them formed a small circle, and Wen Ru explained concisely: "It seems that we triggered the taboo here."

Each location within the dungeon has different taboos and rules.

Wen Ruyan observed for a while and found that there were no more changes in the house and breathed a sigh of relief, "Let's all recall what we did after entering the house?"

"Nothing has been done. We haven't had time to look for clues yet...Wait a minute, I seemed to have accidentally touched a thin line on a puppet just now. Does this have anything to do with it?"

As Xing Qiu was talking, he suddenly thought of something and turned pale, with a trace of panic on his face.

Seeing the expression on her face, Xing Jing comforted her in a low voice.

Wen Ruyan didn't say anything but reached out and grabbed Xing Qiu's hand. As expected, the fingertips of her right hand were gray with no trace of blood.

“Puppets hate being abandoned and once picked up they cannot be put down.”

Wen Ruyan looked at the puppet that Xing Qiu had just pointed at and suddenly remembered the previous reminder.

This is a trap.

The puppets other than real puppets will replace the toucher once touched.

The puppet that Xing Qiu touched just now already had her shadow between its eyebrows. If it had been touched for a longer time, it might become the same as Xing Qiu's.

If puppets replace people, what will happen to people?

Wen Ruyan scanned every part of the room, and finally looked in the direction of the fireplace with a heavy gaze.

A puppet's hand emerged in the firelight.

It's a right hand.

Being replaced means death.

This is a surefire trap.

【Ding! Congratulations to the player for discovering the hidden rules of the dungeon! 】

[Puppets whose movements are controlled by thin threads all day long long for freedom. They cannot break free of their shackles and can only wait for 'kind' humans to untie them. 】

[Players please be careful not to be tempted by the puppets and do not touch the strings on the puppets! 】

After closing his eyes, Wei Shengyou felt that the gaze that had been there since entering the exhibition hall disappeared.

Just now she saw that the clothes on the puppets in the exhibition hall had all changed into the clothes of the three of them, and even the wrinkles on the clothes were exactly the same.

There was silence behind her, and only her soft breathing could be heard in the exhibition hall.

Wei Shengyou recalled the few lines of words on the window cover and thought about the key inside.

Watch...

The puppet likes people's eyes, and the phrase it's looking at you.

After entering the exhibition hall, each of them looked at the puppets in the display window. The puppets in the display window were all facing forward.

Moreover, the puppet facing her has changed the most, and the other ones have just assimilated their costumes.

It only took Wei Shengyou a moment to figure out the key to this.

You can't look at the puppets.

【Ding! Congratulations to the player for discovering the hidden rules of the dungeon! 】

[The eyes are the windows to the soul, and the puppet who is always shut in the window longs to have his own unique soul. 】

[Dear guests, will you be amazed by this lifelike puppet? So are you willing to take its place and become the most unique puppet in the town? 】

[Players please do not be fooled by the appearance of the puppet and are prohibited from looking at it! ! ! 】

"Why don't you look at me? Why don't you look at me? Why don't you look at me!!!"

The sound became sharper and more intense, accompanied by the sound of wood colliding.

Wei Shengyou closed his eyes and turned a deaf ear to the sudden sound.

Suddenly, his wrist was suddenly grabbed and pulled. Wei Shengyou subconsciously raised his hand, not wanting to be blocked easily.

"Sister, it's us."

Shen Shuyao's voice.

After two seconds of stalemate, Wei Shengyou put his hand back and opened his eyes.

The sight was dark, and Rong Shi on the opposite side was half-bent, holding a piece of black cloth with both hands to cover the three of them.

Rong Shi breathed a sigh of relief after seeing that there was nothing wrong with Wei Shengyou. The dungeon with him would never let any beauty have an accident.
