346: Chapter 344: Bring Out Your Courage!
Inside the haunted house, it was pitch black, so much that you couldn’t see your hand in front of your face.
Thrilling horror movie background music played, and so staff dressed as ghosts, wearing masks of monsters and demons, wailed and howled.
So of the more timid girls were scared to the point of covering their heads and shrieking.
Their piercing screams even made the “ghosts” tremble.
Their boyfriends took the opportunity to reveal their manly bravado, constantly saying, “Don’t be afraid, I’ll protect you,” and other righteous declarations.
However, their hands were unrestrainedly embracing their girlfriends, seizing the chance to cop a feel.
Although Ye Chuxue was not at the point of screaming, she was also quite frightened, clinging tightly to Li Chen’s hand and walking forward cautiously.
Suddenly!
A dark figure pounced over, blocking Ye Chuxue’s path.
Ye Chuxue was so scared that she let out a loud scream and directly jumped into Li Chen’s arms.
The “ghost” had a few blood-red streaks drawn on its face and unkempt hair, it humd and hawed, saying, “Don’t go!”
Li Chen gave it a look and said, “Why wouldn’t we leave, are you inviting us to have dinner, your treat?”
Hearing that Li Chen was asking it to treat them to dinner, the “ghost” was so frightened that it quickly let go.
It didn’t even make 200 bucks pretending to be a ghost for the whole day.
If it had to pay for dinner on top of that, it would be a huge loss.
Ye Chuxue burst out laughing, her little hand covering her mouth, her body shaking with mirth.
Li Chen took the opportunity to peck her cheek lightly, causing Ye Chuxue to coyly fuss and punch his chest with her little fists several tis.
Young Master Yao grew a naless jealousy in his heart as he saw the woman he fancied flirting with a loser.
“Little Si, did you bring all the props I asked you to prepare?”
The henchman called Little Si enthusiastically said, “Young Master Yao, look, they’re all here!”
Young Master Yao glanced over, nodded with satisfaction, and said, “Good, put on these ghost skins, and let’s scare him to death!”
The henchn agreed and subsequently began putting on the clothing of evil spirits.
Young Master Yao himself put on a Yaksha costu, holding a Soul Summoning Banner in his hand.
“Brothers, follow !”
All their movents were clearly seen by Li Chen.
Hmph, playing tricks and pretending to be ghosts, eh?
Alright, I’ll let you get your fill of pretending!
Li Chen covertly used his True Yuan to cast a simple Eye-blocking Technique, trapping Young Master Yao and his group inside it.
“Eh, how did the environnt here change?”
One of the rather timid rich second generation mbers realized that sothing was amiss and couldn’t help but shiver.
“This doesn’t make sense, I’ve been to this haunted house many tis before, why is it like this, did Manager Zhao add a new trick?” His companion was also full of surprise.
As he spoke, he instinctively looked around.
Suddenly!
His pupils dilated dramatically, and he let out a shriek, “Young Master Yao, look behind you!”
Young Master Yao, with a look of disdain, replied, “Look at how pathetic you all are, jumping at shadows.
All the ghosts in this haunted house are fake.”
After speaking, to show his courage, he deliberately looked back calmly.
He didn’t need to look to know, but when he did, it scared him witless, causing him to collapse on the spot, incontinent.
A monster with three heads, eight eyes, and a blood-covered face stretched out its tongue, like a bullwhip, to lick him.
“Ah, a ghost!”
The couples who ca to the haunted house for fun, along with the staff inside, were all startled by the screams, more tragic than that of a slaughtered pig.
Even Manager Zhao, the person in charge of the haunted house outside, heard the terrible scream.
Worried about an accident, he hurriedly ordered to turn on the lights inside and rushed in to check.
Under the bright lights, Young Master Yao, already scared out of his wits, was slumped on the ground, with filth all over the floor, emitting waves of foul stench, causing a crowd of girls to cover their noses and back away.
In front of him was a bull head mask with a big red tongue sticking out.
“So cowardly, yet coming to a haunted house to play.
Are you just looking to get scared?”
“Seriously, he’s supposed to be a man, but he’s more scared than us girls, getting scared to pee by just a bull head mask, what a disgrace.”
…
Young Master Yao, upon hearing the mocking laughter of the onlookers, wished he could just find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
This ti he truly lost face all the way to grandma’s house.
The person in charge of the haunted house recognized Young Master Yao and covered his nose as he hurried to help: “Young Master Yao, are you alright?”
Young Master Yao, feeling quite drained, waved his hand and said, “I’m fine, I just need a mont to recover!”
Li Chen offered a faint smile and coldly asked, “How was it, Young Master Yao?
Wasn’t that thrilling enough?”
Young Master Yao’s heart skipped a beat and he bellowed, “Was it you, you little devil, who played this trick?”
Li Chen ignored him and turned to Ye Chuxue, saying, “There’s nothing interesting left here, let’s go sowhere else to have fun.”
Ye Chuxue gently nodded her head, and together, hand in hand with Li Chen, they headed towards the exit.
Seeing Li Chen about to leave, Young Master Yao was consud by anger and struggled to his feet to chase after him.
However, he stumbled due to using too much force and landed hard on the ground.
And what’s worse, he landed face down, right into his own ss.
Watching such a disgusting scene unfold, many girls couldn’t help but vomit on the spot.
Li Chen glanced back at Young Master Yao’s pitiful state and solemnly said, “Young Master Yao, when facing difficulties, you should confront them bravely.
Eating shit won’t solve any problems.”
Finished speaking, he clenched his fist and made an encouraging gesture to Young Master Yao, “Co on, show the courage you had eating shit!”
Young Master Yao, humiliated and furious, scread hysterically, “I’ll throw a faceful of cow dung on you!”
…
After stepping out of the haunted house, Ye Chuxue stared at Li Chen with her big watery eyes and said, “You’re so bad to co up with such a disgusting trick!”
Li Chen shrugged his shoulders innocently and said, “I didn’t do anything, how am I bad?”
Ye Chuxue pouted and retorted, “Yeah right, as if I’d believe that!”
“Let’s go, let’s go, play over there!”
As she spoke, Ye Chuxue’s arm swung intentionally or unintentionally in front of Li Chen, extending her fair hand.
Li Chen, understanding the hint, stepped forward and took her hand.
There was a hill on the east side of the amusent park, not very tall, only about 120 ters, but quite steep, with a platform built on top.
Next to the platform was a large fluorescent screen with the words “Extre Challenge, Thrilling Life” written in bold red letters.
Several staff mbers were busy nearby, with young thrill seekers approaching them from ti to ti with inquiries.
Ye Chuxue blinked and curiously asked, “What’s this ga?”
Li Chen glanced at it and said, “Bungee jumping!”
“How about it, Xue’er, want to give it a try?”
Ye Chuxue looked into Li Chen’s confident, bright eyes and nodded gently.
“Sure, I’ve lived this long and never tried bungee jumping before!”
At that mont, a brawny young man wearing a baseball cap asked the bungee operator, “Boss, how much does it cost to bungee jump here?”
The boss gestured an “eight” with his hand and said, “Eight hundred.”
The baseball cap guy felt the price was unacceptable and pointing at the nylon cord on the ground, he exclaid, “Just for a single jump with this cord, it costs eight hundred yuan?
That’s too expensive, isn’t it?”
The boss, quite accustod to such reactions, joked nonchalantly, “Without the rope, I’ll even pay you eight hundred—dare you?”
The baseball cap guy didn’t respond, seemingly hesitating as to whether to shell out eight hundred yuan for a jump.
“Boss, we want to bungee jump, without the rope!”
Hearing this shout, the boss, the baseball cap guy, and others all looked over instinctively.
The boss ca forward with a chuckle and said, “My dear sir, you must be joking!”
Li Chen rubbed his nose and said earnestly, “Do I look like I’m joking?”
The boss pointed to the area below the platform and said, “Brother, the vertical distance here is 120 ters, which is equivalent to jumping from 40 floors.
Without safety asures, that would be suicide, wouldn’t it?”
The baseball cap guy also thought Li Chen was out of his mind and kindly advised, “Brother, the boss is right.
From a height of 120 ters, you would surely be smashed to death; don’t think about doing anything rash!”
