Thriller Zone: From the Mental Hospital to the Ghostly World

Chapter 277 [Domain·Wedding Feast] Slaughtering a Sheep

Du Tingfeng's expression changed slightly.

His eyes twitched almost imperceptibly, as if he wanted to glance at Chu Jing, but then forcibly turned them back.

Chen Ji knew what he meant.

However, this matter may not actually have anything to do with Chu Jing. The body should have been stored in the east wing long ago.

The only difference might be...

If Du Tingfeng had come to keep him company, the ghost might not have noticed them.

“In that case, there are now three forms of ghosts,” Du Tingfeng said: “The black sheep; the ghost that can’t be seen on the donkey cart; and the charcoal ghost – Brother Li.”

"But that charred demon doesn't seem to be able to get out?"

Through the crack in the window, it could be seen that there was no movement in the east wing.

The windows remained tightly shut.

Chen Ji nodded slightly, his mind filled with countless thoughts.

He originally thought... this domain would be extremely dangerous again, after all, Hua Yilan had been kidnapped in the first place.

But now, one-sixth of the three-day domain has passed, and the group has already encountered ghosts three times.

But surprisingly, they didn't hurt a single one!

But this doesn't necessarily mean it's a good thing...

First of all, ghosts will definitely attack people; it's just a matter of time.

Furthermore, the three different forms precisely illustrate that this domain has many hidden prerequisites.

The eldest brother of the Li family was burned to death, Li Fengxiu was replaced, and the Black Goat made its first appearance—all of these events occurred before they entered the domain....

If the timeline of this domain were a book, then they would have just entered when it was already at the end, and all the useful information would be in the first half of the book!

"What are you thinking about?"

Du Tingfeng walked to Chen Ji's side and asked softly.

Chen Ji thought for a moment before saying, "A sentence you mentioned."

"There are two domains. One has no background whatsoever; its sole purpose is escape."

"The other one is telling a story... To escape the domain, you can only investigate the hidden background and the truth."

Most domains are a combination of these two types, but there are also more extreme domains.

For example, the Three Wise Monkeys; they purely belong to the first type.

Chen Ji turned his head, also to tell Chu Jing:

"This time it's the second type."

Chu Jing's eyes flickered slightly: "That's a good summary! So, how do we conduct the investigation?"

"Start with Li Fengxiu?"

Chen Ji nodded.

The Zhou, Li, and Zheng families are strange; they are like humans and ghosts at the same time. They are not only the main characters at the wedding banquet but also closely connected with the three ghost forces.

They tacitly allowed the appearance of goats; instructed those who entered the domain to cut down trees to release invisible ghosts; and the Li family even imprisoned a charred ghost.

They looked out the window and saw Li Fengxiu come out of the small door and walk to the door of the east wing.

Chen Ji's heart jumped.

But to everyone's surprise, Li Fengxiu only pushed the door open and did not go in.

Then she walked toward the side room.

The three of them immediately returned to the kang (a heated brick bed) and pretended to take a midday nap.

No knock.

Li Fengxiu pushed open the door and walked straight to the edge of the kang (a heated brick bed).

"Masters, please get up."

Du Tingfeng rolled over and mumbled, "Is it past noon?"

“No.” Li Fengxiu stood by the window, looking down at the three of them. “However, I would like to ask you for a favor.”

A bad feeling suddenly rose in Chen Ji's heart.

He huddled in a corner, but could still faintly smell the muttony odor.

Li Fengxiu's voice, tinged with a slight smile, gently rang in their ears:

"Master Zhou specially sent over another sheep today to celebrate my wedding with Brother Zheng."

"Please kill him for me, okay?"
