Chapter 225 Have I been forgotten?

Chapter 225 Have I been forgotten?

“I feel like I’ve been forgotten!”

Wu Rui opened the door of the 'hiding place'. It was quiet and foggy outside.

"My phone was gone, and my clothes were inexplicably replaced with another one. It was very strange. If I hadn't seen myself in the mirror, I would have suspected that I had become another person. Perhaps this is a hidden rule in this haunted building."

"Oh, I shouldn't have hidden in the hiding place if I had known." Wu Rui sighed, then looked back at the mouse, helpless: "Especially, I shouldn't have taken this guy in."

Following Wu Rui out was a white mouse wearing a small Taoist robe.

"Why are you looking at me? The situation was critical, and the ghost beating the drum was very vicious. If we were discovered by it, we would surely die. Besides, we were forced into a desperate situation at that time. If we didn't hide, we would only wait to die." The white rat was also complaining, muttering things like 'Why am I so unlucky' and 'That stupid rabbit'.

What a gossip!
The next moment, the mouse's nose moved and it sniffed around.

"What's wrong?" Wu Rui asked.

It was just a coincidence that she knew this mouse.

When "Into the Night" was played on the radio, she suddenly felt dizzy, as if she had lost control of her body in an instant, and as if her soul had been pulled out of her body.

But this feeling came and went quickly.

But almost in a trance, Wu Rui found herself in another place.

In a strange room.

The door was ajar, the window half open
Even though she had gone through several cycles and witnessed many incredible things, Wu Rui was still frightened at that moment, a little panicked, and her mind went blank.

Fortunately, she wasn't stupid enough to yell or do something irrational.

Breaking the composure and observing the environment were all taught to her by Luo Xi.

Lu Ting also said something similar to her.

"Never make a choice in a hurry!"

Wu Rui agreed with this point deeply, and then she realized how correct this choice was.

Because next, some evil spirits passed by the door, and some even poked their heads in to look. Fortunately, Wu Rui was covered with a quilt. Although the quilt had a moldy smell, at that moment, it seemed like a barrier that could defend against all evil spirits.

Wu Rui slowly hid her head under the quilt. She could hear something coming into the room and searching. The sound of footsteps was so loud that it made her scalp tingle.

If the other person lifted the quilt, he would immediately find her.

But until the next bell rang and the announcement came that it was 'daytime', the quilt was not lifted.

Good luck.

Wu Rui stuck her head out to take a look and discovered another unusual situation.

The 'daytime' outside is not normal!
The sky was covered with thick fog, and there was an eerie silence, but before that, there were evil spirits running rampant and constant noise.

“This place is so weird!”

Wu Rui knew that she didn't have Luo Xi's brain and couldn't understand the various horrific mechanisms in the scene, but she knew that there must be something wrong with this abnormal 'daytime'.

So she didn't move.

This proved to be very useful later, because soon there was a strange drum sound, and a few seconds later, a huge ghost appeared outside the window.

Wu Rui was a little bit unbelievable. Could there be ghosts in the daytime?
She hid her head under the quilt again.

It seemed that at this moment, the quilt on my body was a protective shield that could protect me from all monsters.

She heard the door being pushed open and the sound of drums echoing through the room, almost like they were drumming against the quilt at the closest moment.

People who have not experienced that feeling cannot understand how intense the fear was.

Fortunately, the quilt was still not lifted.

The sound of drums and footsteps receded, and just as quickly as they had come, they left.

Wu Rui guessed at the time that if they were to compete in speed, she would definitely not be able to outrun the other person.

At this moment, she even thought of some very distant memories. It seemed that when she was a child, she listened to her father telling her stories. She would be very scared even of some monsters in fairy tales. At that time, she would wrap herself in a quilt and hide inside, afraid but also wanting to listen to stories.

A sense of security.

"Dad? That's not right. This is not my memory. My parents have never been so nice to me. They only have my brother in their eyes. But why do I think of these?" Wu Rui felt a headache.

It was like a nail piercing my body.

The confusion and disorder of memory bring splitting headaches.

But the more you try not to think about it, the more some memories will emerge.

A teddy bear cartoon hairpin as a birthday present, and her father would carry her on his back, and she asked her if she would also carry her father on her back when she grows up.

"Now I can carry my dad on my back and walk. I am very strong."

"Haha, my Ruirui is the best!"

Fragmented memories and voices keep appearing.

Wu Rui was about to faint from the pain. She touched her nose with trembling hands and found that blood was flowing out.

Just when she was about to collapse, a voice reached her ears.

"The Supreme Star, ever-changing, wise, and peaceful."

Then, a furry thing came out from behind the quilt and slapped Wu Rui a dozen times. It was quite painful.

Wu Rui was stunned at that time.

Later Wu Rui found out that the guy who saved her and beat her was the same guy.

It's not a person, it's a white mouse wearing clothes.

He calls himself "Rat Taoist".

Later, she and the 'Rat Taoist' experienced many things, but Wu Rui found that the 'Rat Taoist' was even more timid than her.

Many times, it was the mouse that held her tightly and wouldn't let her go out. For example, when Wu Rui heard noises outside, or people talking, or even fighting, she wanted to go see what was going on, but the mouse Taoist gave her a lecture, saying, "Only those who know how to protect themselves are the best."

If you are timid, then you are timid, but why do you flatter yourself?

So shameless!

For example, when he was being chased by the evil ghost beating the drum, he had nowhere to go, so he pulled the Rat Taoist priest into the "hiding place" with him.

Wu Rui squatted down at this time, looked at this "rat Taoist", thought for a while and said: "Why do I feel like I was tricked by you?"

"When did I ever cheat you? Don't talk nonsense, little girl!" The Rat Taoist was anxious, his beard shaking.

"If you hadn't pulled me back several times, I might have already reunited with Luo Xi and the others, and wouldn't have been forgotten in this horrible scene." Wu Rui said this, but she didn't really blame Rat Taoist.

Anyway, at the critical moment, it was the Rat Taoist who recited the incantation and then used his little claws to beat himself back to normal.

Otherwise, she might die from the pain.

Her situation was very similar to when Brother Mao had a headache. When she thought of this, Wu Rui felt uneasy.

Fortunately, the Rat Taoist later gave her something he said was a "pill". Although it tasted strange, a bit salty and a bit astringent, it was good. After that, she didn't have any more strange memories, and her head didn't hurt anymore.

"I'm doing this for your own good. Who knows what the situation outside is like? At critical moments, you can't take a wrong step, otherwise you will be doomed. You, little girl, are not grateful to me but blame me. I should not have cared about you earlier. It would be best if I let you be eaten by ghosts!" The Rat Taoist muttered again, his words like a machine gun.

Wu Rui had become immune to this kind of nagging in her hiding place. She ignored it and let it mutter to itself. It would stop after a while.

"So, what do I do now?"

Wu Rui asked herself, obviously, Luo Xi and the others should have left the scene, maybe through clearance, or maybe through other means. Now she was the only one left, and Wu Rui had a very clear understanding of her own abilities.

If it was just a low-level scene, she could still challenge it alone, but if it was a high-level scene, then that wouldn't work.

Especially in such a large scene, she didn't dare to think about clearing the level. She just hoped not to die and leave alive.

"The only way to leave is through the entrance!" This was the only solution Wu Rui could think of.

As for exploring the scene or something, she didn't even dare to think about it.

"Master Rat, thank you so much." Wu Rui thanked Master Rat sincerely.

"Why, have you found your conscience and realized how good I am?" asked the Taoist Rat.

"I know I am alive today thanks to you, but now I plan to leave this scene."

"Leave? You little girl haven't figured out the situation yet, right? You are a ghost now. Unless you turn into a living person, you can't leave." The Rat Taoist said the most important rule in the scene.

"What?" Wu Rui indeed found that her current situation was abnormal.

For example, the light could not illuminate her shadow.

But she really didn't expect that she would become a ghost.

How did you become a ghost?

Amazing.

Moreover, since they were all ghosts, why did I have to hide under the quilt and tremble in fear before?

They are all the same species, so who is afraid of who?

"Of course, 'ghost' is just an identity in this scene." Rat Taoist explained.

"Then how can I change back?" Wu Rui also discovered that the Rat Taoist knew a lot of things, so it would be more direct to ask him at this time.

"It's simple. Just find someone who knows you in the 'night' and ask them to call out your name."

"It's indeed very simple. But, in this situation, is there anyone who knows me?" Wu Rui was a little upset.

According to what the Rat Taoist said, wouldn't it be impossible for me to leave?
Can I only die again when the cycle ends and restarts?
"Master Taoist, I do know another method." The Rat Taoist chuckled at this time, but he was interrupted by a strange sound just as he said this.

It's the sound of drums.

Wu Rui's expression also changed.

"That evil ghost is here again!"

Before, the ghost beating the drum had been chasing them relentlessly. If Wu Rui had not wanted to avoid it, she would not have fled to her "hiding place" with the Rat Taoist in such a panic.

I didn’t expect to meet him again not long after I came out.

"Girl, can your hiding place be opened?" asked the Rat Taoist at this time.

Wu Rui nodded. After she got the card ring, the [hiding place inside the door] could be opened three times in a single cycle, which greatly improved its practicality.

"You should hide first. This ghost is coming for me. Haha, the drum sounds. A blue-faced ghost, more than ten feet long, with raised horns and fangs, hairy arms and scaly back, will capture any rat it encounters and will not stop until it is dead."
