I am in the horror game, scrambling to steal the male lead's halo

Chapter 462 The Moving Wooden Bride

At first, I thought Zhao Yuer was the eldest daughter because her surname was the same as those on the tablets, so I naturally thought she was from this family.

But if she was really the eldest daughter, why would she live in the room in front?

It was obvious that the wooden bride's room had been occupied by a woman.

The room at the back, which looks much more exquisite, is the room of the real owner of this small house.

It is very likely that that is Zhao Xingxu's room.

"Aside from the possibility that Zhao Yu'er is the eldest daughter, maybe she is a child bride raised by Zhao Xingxu."

Gu Chaoxi began to search the room, but every drawer seemed very clean and there were not many things left in the room.

She looked towards the bed, where the wooden bride was still sitting obediently.

"Why doesn't the wooden bride have a head?"

The wooden bride was wearing a bride's dress, but without a head. All the ornaments on her head were on Zhao Yuer.

If this day was really the day Zhao Yuer was getting married, then the person she was marrying was Zhao Xingxu, not her own lover.

"Is this a substitute? Is it equivalent to marrying her off?"

The wooden bride is treated as a substitute for the person himself and a wedding is held for it, but the real protagonist of the wedding is the person in the backyard.

Is Zhao Xingxu trying to replace one thing with another?

Gu Chaoxi raised his hand and lifted the veil of the wooden bride, and there was still nothing above her neck.

But compared to before, the originally empty neck now had bloodstains on it.

"The plane will interfere with our own judgment. This topic may not have so many strange things at the beginning."

Pei Yan said this and raised his hand to wipe his neck gently. Sure enough, there was blood on his fingers.

He bent down and sniffed his fingers. There was indeed blood, but he didn't know whether it was animal blood or something else.

"Is there anything under the bed?"

She reached out and moved the wooden bride to the side, then raised her hand to lift up the quilt on the bed.

On the empty bed board, there is an obvious lid that can be opened.

It seems that Zhao Yuer hid something in here.

She stepped onto the bed, reached out, opened the lid, and looked at what was inside.

There were some small toys thrown in there, all of which looked to be made of wood, as well as some gold, silver and jewelry.

"She's saving things to escape from here, right?"

Pei Yan stepped onto the bed and stopped next to the compartment where things were placed.

This grid looks quite large, and there are already a lot of things placed in it. I guess if it is exchanged for silver, it should be no problem to buy a small yard.

Of course, he was referring to Zhao Yuer's era.

Gu Chaoxi reached in and rummaged around a few times, revealing a box.

The box was locked.

"key."

Gu Chaoxi took the box out and looked up at Pei Yan. Obviously, this was the box that needed a key to open, right?

But why are the two things placed in two completely different rooms?

Moreover, the box was hidden under the bed and would be easily discovered if someone searched her bed.

Unless she was sure that the man would not check her bed.

"Anyway, take it first." Pei Yan said as he jumped off the bed.

Gu Chaoxi also followed down and nodded. Now he was just waiting for Qin Wei to open the box with the key so that he would know what was inside.

However, before the two of them reached the door, the door slammed shut.

The huge noise made the two people stop in their tracks at the same time. They looked at each other and felt something approaching from behind.

Feeling that thing getting closer, Gu Chaoxi suddenly bent down and kicked it over.

Her eyes widened unconsciously: "It's that wooden bride!"

How on earth does this thing move?

She immediately went over and leaned against Pei Yan. The wooden bride who was kicked just rolled on the ground and quickly stood up.

The blood on its neck flowed downwards and then disappeared into its clothes.

"What the hell!"

Its movements were very strange, with its hands stretched forward and its entire back hunched.

It feels like there is some string pulling it, and there is a string around its waist pulling it so that it stays upright.

But when the two looked up, there was nothing.

The candles in the room were swaying in the wind, and it seemed that they would go out at any second.

Pei Yan protected the candle in his hand and tried not to let it go out, otherwise they would really not be able to see what was going on inside the room.

The wooden bride seemed a little angry, and her hands were directed straight towards the box in Gu Chaoxi's arms.

But she had found it with great difficulty, so how could she just give it to the wooden bride?

Of course I fought with it.

After all, the two of them are a couple with a tacit understanding. When they work together, the wooden bride has no upper hand at all.

But the problem is that they are still human beings and they will always feel tired, but this wooden bride does not feel tired at all and keeps attacking them tirelessly.

I don't know how long I fought until I heard someone knocking on the door outside.

"Pei Yan, little cutie, are you guys in there?"

Gu Zhaoxi kicked the wooden bride out with his leg and yelled outside: "In."

Qin Wei tried several times, but the door wouldn't open. Even when he kicked it, it didn't move at all.

She was a little anxious and tried to break through from the window next to her, but failed as well.

"We can't get in, you two be careful!"

She wanted to go in and help, but there was nothing she could do.

Shen Yao looked over. Pei Yan's candle inside occasionally cast their shadows on the doors and windows. From their movements, it could be seen that they were a little tired from the fight.

The wooden bride used great force every time, and Gu Chaoxi and Pei Yan were really exhausted from dealing with it.

"Burn it!"

It was still wearing its wedding dress, and if they moved quickly enough, they could use the candles to set the dress on fire.

No matter how good a wooden man is at fighting, his fear of fire will not change.

Pei Yan nodded and said "hmm", then kept paying attention to the movements of the wooden bride.

It was so fast that the candle in Pei Yan's hand was about to burn the wedding dress several times, but the wooden bride dodged it.

Gu Chaoxi took a few steps back, supported himself on the table, and kicked it slightly.

"Why is this thing so difficult to deal with?"

She looked at the table she was supporting and reached out to lift it up. After trying twice, she found that the table was too heavy to move.

That’s all! She took a sip and hit the wooden bride again.

This time her goal was to control the wooden bride and she had to get rid of it.

Fortunately, she succeeded this time. She pressed the wooden bride's arm and threw it to the ground. Pei Yan also took advantage of this opportunity to ignite the wedding dress with the candle in his hand.

As the fire started to burn, the door of the room opened.
