Chapter 212 Escape from the secret room, Bai Fen Po
"Guests, please rest assured that this is a puzzle-oriented escape room. It is just a ghost and horror theme. There are no scary staff, so you can play with confidence."
As Su Enxi said this, she glanced at the double swords at Lu Chen's waist, thinking to herself, how could anyone bring a girl to play with a sword?
This means that it is all false. If you really go back to the mythical age, the situation in the house will be reversed.
The so-called fear is not like seeing a ghost.
But it’s like a ghost has seen you!
What kid can withstand the emperor and you taking turns ravaging me!
"That's good."
Lu Chen nodded and felt relieved. He also caught the other person's eyes looking at his knife just now, and he didn't care.
It seemed strange to go out to play with a pair of swords, but when he came to Japan, he just went to see Genji. Then he went straight to Genji Heavy Industries and had no time to go back to the hotel.
What's more, he won't let the Seven Deadly Sins leave his side. This is valuable college property (private property). At the same time, he also wants to prevent someone from trying to cause trouble.
After swiping the card, Lu Chen entered the building with the long-awaited Eri clothes. Following the guidance of the conductor, they got on the elevator. The game started from the top floor.
"Godzilla, so realistic."
After Eriki stepped out of the elevator, she looked at the surrounding environment and praised it in her notebook.
Because it was a game, Eri knew it was all fake, and with Godzilla by her side, she wasn't afraid.
I just feel that the scenery on the floor is very realistic, as if I have really returned to the ancient times.
Lu Chen looked at the surrounding environment. The walls on both sides were covered by bloody vines, the ground was paved with dirt, and candlesticks at intervals on both sides emitted a dense orange light, making the space look eerie.
The theme of this escape room is called "White Pink Lady", and it should be based on a kind of ghost in Japanese myths and legends. Lu Chen doesn't know much about this aspect, so he doesn't know much about it.
He held Eri's hand and walked forward. He had never played an escape room, but he had never eaten pork and had seen pigs running. He knew that this kind of game requires collecting various story clues to find the way to the next level. entrance.
Eriyi suddenly took Lu Chen's hand and ran forward a few steps, then picked up an envelope from a table. She looked a little excited, and raised the envelope and handed it to Lu Chen as if asking for credit.
She was indeed very happy. When she saw an escape room project on the Internet, she was very interested, but she couldn't get out and had no friends to play with her.
"This is the clue Eryi found. Please open it."
Lu Chen smiled and said that he didn't think this kind of project was interesting. After all, except for the Nibelungs, there seemed to be no secret room in the world that could trap him.
What riddle do I solve? Can't I go out if I wear it?
But Eriki was obviously very serious about the game. After opening the envelope, she moved closer to the candlelight and the two of them started reading together.
"Dear Demon Slayers, I finally waited for you. No... maybe it's too late. These words should have been spoken to you personally..."
Some are like the opening of the plot mission in an RPG game. The general idea is that they are demon slayers, and they came to this ancient town by chance to slay demons, that is, to get rid of Bai Fenpo in the ancient town of cholera.
There wasn't much information, and it didn't even explain what kind of monster Bai Fen Po was. Lu Chen wasn't surprised. This kind of game always doesn't give out too much information at the beginning.
Eriki asked: "Does Godzilla know what kind of monster Bai Fen Po is?"
Lu Chen shook his head, "I don't know much about ghosts in Japanese mythology. I've only heard of some famous ones."
What he knows about Japanese ghosts and gods, apart from the small amount of popular science he learned last time at Zhongyuan in the Jin Lunga Corridor, is all about anime...
Eriki's eyes lit up and she raised her notebook, "I know."
As if she had discovered that she was better than Godzilla, Eriyi felt a little complacent and wrote in her notebook: "White Pink Lady usually appears as an amiable old lady and likes to deceive pretty girls and lie to them. She used a kind of white powder she made to paint her face, saying that this powder would make girls fairer and more beautiful, but the whole face of girls who applied this white powder would fall off, and the white powder lady took the girl's face for her own use."
"Eri Yi knows a lot."
Lu Chen praised, and at the same time felt that this monster was indeed scary, a bit similar to the painted skin story he had heard in his previous life.
As an escape room project, it creates a scary atmosphere. This setting is far better than using real props to scare people. Some things never occur to you, and the more you think about them, the more chilling you become.
Eriyi felt a little embarrassed after being praised, "I also saw it in anime."
Then the two of them worked together to find clues everywhere on the floor, and finally solved the puzzle and headed to the next floor...well, basically all by relying on Eri.
Lu Chen wasn't stupid, and he could make a rough guess based on clues, but Eri was very energetic, so sometimes even if he solved the puzzle, it was left to Eri to show off.
As the game progresses, they probably understand what kind of story this escape room theme tells.
The general idea is that in this ancient town, a monster named Baifenpo appeared. It may be because of the secondary design. What Eriyi said is not entirely correct. Baifenpo will not only attack beautiful girls, but she will not choose the target.
She will attack men, women, young and old.
Moreover, in the setting, Baifenpo not only collects people's faces, but after she peels off people's faces, it is equivalent to devouring the other person's power. As the number of her murders increases, she is also constantly evolving and changing. Be stronger.
It feels more like a ghoul than a face-changing monster.
He and Eri arrived late as demon slayers. After arriving in this small town, most of the townspeople had been killed. They needed to find out the true identity of Bai Fenpo, who was mixed among the people of the ancient town.
Of course, there are no staff here, only some personnel identity cards for them to judge.
"Bai Fen Po is so hateful. No one has hurt her, so why would she hurt everyone?"
Eriyi's reasoning was stuck, and she was a little angry when she saw the deeds of some white powder ladies.
Lu Chen didn't know how to explain this kind of thing to Eriki, and finally he could only say: "There are people like this in this world, who unscrupulously hurt others because of their desires. They think that as long as their desires are satisfied, they will devour everything." When a person’s value reaches its peak through evolution, no one can punish him anymore.”
Eriki held up the small notebook and said, "It's so scary."
She didn't really understand it, but she thought Godzilla's words were profound, and she thought such people or ghosts were scary.
Lu Chen and Eriyi walked down a few more floors. There was something strange about this escape room. Every time they went downstairs, they had to select a personnel card they thought was Bai Fenpo's and swipe it on the elevator.
If they find the right one, they will be declared cleared, and the elevator will go straight to the bottom floor. The game will be over, but no matter whether they are right or not, they will only have one chance to swipe the card on each floor. If they are wrong, the door will open and send them to the next floor. Continue Gather clues.
But there are hundreds of these personnel cards in total!
They descended one level at a time, as if they were sinking into the eighteenth level of hell. If the puzzle is not solved and Bai Fen Po's identity is not found out by the last level, the game will be declared failed, which means that the demon slayer is also hidden. Killed by Baifen Po in the shadows.
Finally, Lu Chen and Eri Yi descended to the second floor, which was the seventeenth floor. They didn't have much chance left.
During this period, Lu Chen suggested that Eriyi close his eyes and draw a card at random to try to open the door. He wanted to see how far Ou Huang could go.
But Eriki firmly refused, holding up her notebook and saying, "We must abide by the rules of the game."
Fortunately, they found useful clues on the "Seventeenth Floor". "Among the people in the ancient town who have not been killed so far, there is an ancestor who once devoured the flesh and blood of the Yamata no Orochi. That power has been passed down to this day, and Baifenpo has been coveting it for a long time. But still haven’t found the opportunity.”
"Tip, find the identity card that inherits the bloodline of Yamata no Orochi, use it to open the elevator, and go down to the next floor to reveal Bai Fenpo's identity."
Eriki happily raised her notebook and said, "There are clues, we can pass the level!"
As a top-notch hybrid, Eri's memory is naturally very good. She has memorized various clues along the way in her mind. At this time, she connected them in series and thought that it was not easy to find the person with the blood of Yamata no Orochi. Disaster.
She combed through the clues in her mind and picked through the ID cards of the townspeople on the table, while Lu Chen was lost in thought on the side.
He felt that this escape room game was hinting at something to him. This game was inherently weird. There was no such idiot businessman in the world who spent huge sums of money to renovate a building and only received two groups of customers every day, earning a pitiful 400,000 yuan. JPY.
Apart from anything else, this place seems to have been newly opened. How could there be so many reviews online?
Lu Chen, who is familiar with Brother Fingel's operations, understands that these must all be trolls, and if this kind of efficiency in picking up customers is really popular, he and Eri may not be able to make an appointment for a month, so how can they be available at any time? Play.
Hmm... It feels like this routine is familiar to him, just like when he and Eriki played Shirtl's Wrath together.
It's that group of people again.
What are you trying to tell me?
Baifenpo...changes face...finds identity...
Is this a hint of the situation he is in now? He wants to find the true identity of the king, but the opponent has a bunch of shadow dancers hiding in the shadows to choose people to eat. He does not have the power to kill the opponent easily, but he No one can be touched.
Just like the demon slayer in this escape room, from the story setting, he and Eri could easily kill Baifenpo, but they just couldn't find it. If the game failed in the end, they would be considered as being tricked. Playing with applause until he was killed in a sneak attack.
Lu Chen hated this feeling. You wanted to fight openly and openly, but the other party cowered in the shadows.
Eriki's delicate fingers traced the personnel cards on the table.
This one...isn't right.
This one...isn't right either.
Not this person...
As time went by, Eriki's beautiful eyebrows wrinkled slightly on her serious and pretty face, but she couldn't find out.
"Eri, have you thought of who it is?"
Lu Chen asked.
"Not yet, they don't seem to match up. There are several targets, but there are no clues that point to them having the bloodline of Yamata no Orochi."
Eriyi held up the small notebook, feeling a little distressed.
Lu Chen was also a little surprised. Hui Liyi had been very successful in finding various clues before. He thought for a while, "Is it possible that we are still missing something? Is there anyone who we ignored and didn't check?"
Eriyi shook her head, "The character cards are all here. We have also checked this floor, and none have fallen to the ground."
After Eriyi put down her notebook, her eyes suddenly lit up. Godzilla's reminder was right. There were indeed people they had ignored and yet to check.
As players, they also received two identity cards at the beginning!
But the two of them didn't notice at first, and Godzilla put them in her pockets. Her clothes had no pockets.
"Godzilla, take out our ID cards and take a look."
Eriyi wrote.
Lu Chen took out his identity card from his breast pocket. This was indeed something they ignored. The main player could not be Bai Fen Po. They were just looking for Bai Fen Po. Their personal identity had not been considered important before.
Eriyi picked up her identity card. The picture on it was of a miko, which matched her quite well.
She looked at the character introduction details on the reverse side, and there was a line in it: "A shrine maiden who inherited the power of the gods."
Then she took Godzilla's identity card. She was just an ordinary demon-slayer star with no special reminder.
Then eliminating all possibilities, there is only one possibility left. The person who inherits the bloodline of Yamata no Orochi is her own identity!
"It should be my card."
Eriyi held up the small notebook and said.
"I believe Eri, go ahead and swipe your card."
Lu Chen smiled.
After swiping the card, they went to the next floor. An envelope was spit out from the machine next to the elevator entrance. When opened, the contents inside were:
"Baifenpo was tempted and couldn't bear it anymore. Her identity was exposed in the chaos. The demon slayer immediately took action and pulled Baifenpo out..."
They successfully found Baifenpo, because they had premeditated to lure the snake out of the cave, and Eriyi's identity was not injured. The two of them solved the mystery perfectly.
Next, you only need to pick up the Baifenpo's real identity card specified in the letter and swipe the turnstile at the end to pass the customs.
"Eri is so awesome, like a detective."
Lu Chen praised that he really didn't expect the player's identity to be reversed in the end.
Eriki held up a small notebook and said, "I watched many episodes of Conan in the house."
Lu Chen called him "good guy". He originally thought that Eriyi only watched short anime, but thinking about it, having a lot of time is a good opportunity to make up for long stories.
He now also roughly understands what those people want to tell him in this escape room game, just like the experience he and Eriki had when they found Bai Fenpo.
For this kind of old Yinbi hiding in the shadows, it is unrealistic to take the initiative to find him. Baifenpo is troublesome enough. She can transform into various familiar people and lurk around you.
General Wang is even more troublesome. Not only is his identity well hidden, but he also has many shadow dancers. Even if he kills the ones who show up, he doesn't know if they are his true identity.
For this kind of person, he must let him see a temptation that he cannot refuse when he thinks he is safe.
For example... God.
