There is another promenade ahead, but it is more mottled, dilapidated, and scary than the previous one, and it also has more turns and twists.
Every time he turned a corner, it was a shock for Qiao Liang.
The corridor was very quiet, and there seemed to be no monsters suddenly running out, but this cramped environment still made Qiao Liang feel great mental pressure.
Only then did Qiao Liang finally come to his senses.
I have been tricked!
At the beginning, the girl at the front desk used a zombie look. Her appearance was very scary, but not intimidating. She first used a relatively gentle approach to raise Qiao Liang's psychological pressure and put her on alert.
But then, through a series of arrangements at the psychiatrist's office, Qiao Liang mistakenly believed that the journey of "ultimate terror" had not officially begun yet, and thought that this was a routine physical and psychological test.
This move up and down made Qiao Liang relax his guard.
Of course, the electrocardiogram machine should be real, the psychological test should be real, and the test results can indeed show the health status of the tourists. If they are really not suitable for the next experience, they may be dismissed on the spot.
However, once it is found that there is no problem with the tourist's test, the horror game will start the moment the psychiatrist announces it!
Now Qiao Liang is 100% sure that there must be some hidden mechanism under the table that controls all of this, but he is too frightened to have the courage to explore it all.
Qiao Liang had no choice but to hold the golden lantern tightly and move forward cautiously.
It has to be said that these initial arrangements were excessive, especially when the doctor who looked kind just a second ago suddenly became scary, which challenged Qiao Liang's psychological defense.
But when he was frightened, he ran away. The next distance seemed to be safe, which made Qiao Liang calm down quickly. Although he was still in panic, he would not give up immediately because of excessive panic.
.
Of course, Qiao Liang already wants to give up now, but this sense of terror is maintained at a just right level: to say that he immediately shouted to the staff to give up the challenge seems a bit fussy, and he feels that he can still persist; but
If you continue walking, you will feel that sense of terror lingering around you, being swallowed up bit by bit.
He looked around and determined that there should be microphones, cameras and secret doors everywhere here. If he shouted for help and wanted to give up at any time, there should be staff to rescue him.
But it was precisely because of this that he felt that he could still persevere.
"I heard that there is a safe house here. You have to at least stick to the first save point, right?"
If he had known that he would have to suffer for half an hour later, Qiao Liang might have decided to give up. But looking at the golden lantern in his hand and thinking about the settings of the safe house, he still defeated himself and decided to move forward.
…
After a while, in the safe house.
The big project "Ultimate Terror" is a ring-shaped structure. The central area is the safe house, with many doors that can lead to various areas of the "Ultimate Terror" project.
There is a staff member behind each door who will record the progress of the current visitor. Whether he enters or leaves the safe house, there must be a corresponding record.
The number of times you enter the safe house and the props you carry with you will have an impact on the tourist's ticket refund amount in the end.
To put it simply, if you wear the little devil headdress and do not enter the safe house and pass the level once, the ticket will be fully refunded and a certificate will be issued.
This can also be regarded as a save point. People like Ruan Guangjian who challenge it twice can directly take the special passage to the safe house the second time they enter and start over from a specific area.
Lin Wan, Ruan Guangjian, Chen Kangtuo and others had arrived at the safe house in advance, waiting for Qiao Laoshi's arrival.
The decoration style of the safe house is much more normal than that of horror scenes, but it still has a sense of age. This is to prevent tourists from getting too comfortable in the safe house, which will affect their subsequent tours.
In other words, you will relax after entering the safe house, but the scene layout in the safe house will always remind visitors that they are still in the "Ultimate Horror" project. This is just a temporary resting point and foothold, and it does not mean the end of the adventure.
Ruan Guangjian looked at his watch and saw that more than ten minutes had passed.
For the "Ultimate Horror" project, everyone's tour time is different, because some projects in it need to be explored.
If someone like Ruan Guangjian is bold and walks fast, the overall time will be shorter; but if he is cautious and hesitant, the overall time will be longer.
At the same time, staff will monitor and pay close attention in real time.
On the one hand, it is to ensure that the passenger flow is not crowded, because some projects can only be experienced by one person at a time, and no one can be allowed in until one person has finished the experience; on the other hand, it is also to ensure that if tourists give up, the staff can rescue them as soon as possible.
"You didn't just give up midway, right?" Ruan Guangjian was a little worried.
Everyone came to the safe house to greet Qiao Laoshi, who was exhausted physically and mentally, and cheer him up so that he could pass the level as soon as possible.
But if Qiao Laoshi didn't insist on reaching the safe house at all... that would be embarrassing.
Chen Kangtuo thought for a while: "It shouldn't be so. I have repeatedly adjusted the 'ultimate horror' experience, and also restricted the actions of the staff inside. It was not so scary in the early stage. Qiao Laoshi also brought a golden lantern.
There’s no reason to hold on until you reach the first save point.”
"But this time is too long, right?"
While everyone was discussing, the door to the second save point in the safe house was pushed open.
Qiao Liang's face turned pale and he held the golden lantern in his hand tightly. After seeing the scene inside the safe house, he let out a sigh of relief.
Saved!
Everyone was stunned. They didn't expect that Qiao Liang didn't enter at the first save point, but persisted to the second save point!
In fact, Qiao Liang really wanted to enter the safe house to rest at the first save point.
However, the first two projects were a bit too weak, which made him inflated. He felt that he could persist and go to the next save point before entering the safe house.
So, he chose to skip the first save point.
As a result, this decision made him regret his guts, and he wanted to slap himself in the next two projects.
After escaping from the doctor's room where the psychological test was conducted, Qiao Liang first arrived at a place similar to a laboratory.
There are high shelves all around. On the shelves are all kinds of scary things soaked in various dark yellow potions, such as eyeballs, tongues, gums, other organs, etc. Although it is clear that these are fake, it still feels very strange.
Scary.
The shelves are arranged into a maze structure. When you go around, you will find a workbench filled with various medicine bottles and reagents. It seems that there was a perverted scientist here just now doing experiments, and he just left temporarily.
Qiao Liang did not dare to stay longer and left in a state of high alert. He did not dare to make a sound and had to constantly observe the surrounding situation for fear that the perverted scientist would suddenly jump out from somewhere.
Fortunately, no monsters appeared until the end, and everything went smoothly.
The second small project is two rows of shoe cabinets. After careful testing, no abnormality was found. However, when I walked about 1/3 of the room, a zombie that looked like a cleaner suddenly appeared behind me, roaring and following behind me.
Come up.
Qiao Liang subconsciously ran quickly, but the shoe cabinets around him began to open automatically one by one without any warning. The metal cabinet doors slapped each other and made a "ping-ping-ping-pong" sound, and many things even popped out of the cabinets.
These cabinets are obviously equipped with sensors. When someone walks by, they will automatically open. The mechanism inside will pop up scary things, and will automatically return to their original state after the tourists leave.
The cleaner zombie behind him actually walks very slowly, just to scare people, but the shoe cabinets are really scary because they are all automatic sensors. The faster the tourists run, the faster these things will react.
When tourists run past quickly, large shoe cabinets will open together, making it even more terrifying.
The third small project is a classroom with several students taking exams and an invigilator.
The invigilator asked Qiao Liang to sit down in the back row to answer the questions, but during the process of reading the questions, the student on the front left raised his hand and said that his pen was broken, so the teacher handed him something similar to a bear trap, which was a delicate
There is a pen in the mechanism.
The student began to try to dismantle it carefully, but failed in the middle. His hands were directly clamped, with bones visible and blood flowing profusely. He began to howl in pain, but the more he struggled, the tighter the clamps became. Finally, he
His right hand was severed at the wrist, and four fingers were missing from his left hand. He fell to the ground and passed out.
While all this was happening, other students and teachers were still answering questions as if nothing had happened, turning a blind eye.
Although Qiao Liang knew that this was all fake and was a prop, he was still frightened because the actor's acting skills were so realistic and the screams could be heard far away.
After waiting for a while, Qiao Liang realized that he could leave, because the student happened to get out of the way after he fell to the ground and passed out, but the prerequisite was that he had to step over the "corpse".
The space of the fourth small project is very large, much wider than all the small projects I have been to before. This is an oversized kitchen, and the structure is very complex. The visibility is very low, and kitchen knives are constantly coming from the front.
The sound is on the chopping board, and the light is the brightest, and you can see there is a door over there.
However, when you get closer, you will find that the back is a stout pig-headed man holding a butcher knife. What he keeps chopping are stumps and broken arms, and the barrels around him are filled with all kinds of disgusting, bloody meat.
piece.
Qiao Liang didn't dare to get close at all. He walked around the surrounding dark places two or three times with the lamp, and finally determined that although the place was large, it seemed to have only one exit, and the surrounding dark places were all filled with scary scenery. It should be in
For timid people like Qiao Liang.
After approaching the pig-headed butcher, he would take out a bowl of broth from the big pot with something gurgleing next to it and hand it to Qiao Liang.
Fortunately, this is just an ordinary bowl of chicken soup.
After coming out of the butcher's room, Qiao Liang finally saw the second save point, which was the second entrance to the safe house, and immediately opened the door and entered without hesitation.
Seeing the scene in the safe house, Qiao Liang finally let out a sigh of relief, and finally relaxed his grip on the golden lantern.
Come to life!
I have to say that the arrangement of this process is really insidious.
There will be corridors between each project, so that tourists can relax for a short period of time and not be tense all the time. However, the corridors at the back have scarier scenery and more twists and turns.
The horror level of these small projects also gradually increases.
The first project only displays some scary scenery to create the illusion that "monsters may come at any time", making visitors feel frightened;
The second project arranges a slowly approaching zombie to force visitors to quickly pass through the shoe cabinet, where the really scary things are hidden;
The third project arranges live-action performances. Although it is just for watching, the sense of real horror has risen to another level;
The fourth project went even further and started letting tourists drink in this environment.
All projects are not just about a monster appearing suddenly to scare people, but creating a subtle atmosphere of terror, slowly and slowly pushing up the psychological tolerance threshold of tourists.
When you are almost unable to stand it anymore, you can enter the safe house for a short rest and adjustment.
Qiao Liang realized that he seemed to have been fooled.
This haunted house is not particularly scary in terms of level of horror.
But the magic of it is that it can always control this sense of terror at the critical point, so that while you are frightened, you can still persist inexplicably and be frightened even more!
