Chapter 51: Even Death Is Worth the Ticket Price!!
"Am I wrong?"
"It's all just hype. The haunted house owner is like that, and so is Qin Guang. They're all birds of a feather, what's there to be proud of? When it comes to hiring online trolls, you're just as good at it!"
Fei Youliang immediately became angry.
They were all young people, at the age when they were full of passion, and with so many people watching, Fei Youliang could no longer hold back and clenched his fists tightly.
The zombie man wasn't afraid at all, looking at Fei Youliang with disdain.
The onlookers took a look.
Good grief, it turns out the haunted house owner wants a 1v1 duel.
You two looking for trouble, do you want a 1v1 situation?
Is there some special keyword in this New Century Amusement Park? It's bound to create couples! It's practically a paradise for finding a partner. From now on, who in Hanjiang City will still be looking for a date in the small park? They'll all be running to the haunted house instead!
"Swish, swish, swish!"
Many people took out their phones and took pictures of the zombie man and Fei Youliang.
The atmosphere was tense and on the verge of conflict.
Two hands pressed down on the zombie man's and Fei Youliang's fists.
Chen Ge appeared between the two of them without them noticing, one hand clenched into a fist, his eyes filled with disappointment, and he sighed deeply, saying:
"Both of you are outstanding men; why make such a fuss over such a trivial matter and invite ridicule from those around you?"
"I have a good idea that will satisfy both of you and everyone else who's waiting to go to the haunted house. I wonder if you two would be willing to give me the honor of hearing me out."
Zombie Man:?
Fei Youliang: ?
You have a plan too?
Chen Ge coughed lightly twice and said, "Since both haunted houses are opening new scenes at the same time today, neither of them will give in. It just so happens that you two also think we're just creating hype, and you're not going to give in to us either."
"How about this, we'll pair up. I'll visit Boss Zhang's haunted house, and Boss Zhang will take one person to visit mine. We'll both go to each other's new scenes."
"Fei Youliang, didn't you have a problem with me? How about you and Boss Zhang tour my new location, Twilight Middle School, while I and the Zombie Man tour Midnight Police Station?"
Chen Ge's suggestion surprised Zhang Ze.
Although Chen Ge's thoughts were definitely not that simple.
Zhang Ze wasn't worried about any accidents. His haunted house was the world behind the door, and he had complete control over it.
If Zhang Ze and Chen Ge were to fight, with Zhang Ya as Chen Ge's trump card, Zhang Ze could guarantee at least a 50/50 chance, or even a slight victory. However, in the world behind the door, Zhang Ze would be absolutely certain of defeating Chen Ge.
This is his absolute confidence.
Not every door owner is as useless as Men Nan.
Moreover, this is during the early game when numerical values are scarce.
"Boss Chen's words are exactly what I wanted to hear. I have long admired Boss Chen's haunted house, but it is a pity that I have never had the opportunity to experience it in person. Now that I have the opportunity to feast my eyes on it, I will naturally accept your offer with utmost respect," Zhang Ze said politely.
This is an open conspiracy.
Let me tell you, I know what you're thinking. You want to see my haunted house, and I'll let you see it. I'll also see your haunted house. We'll get straight to the point and not play those roundabout games.
Chen Ge understood the subtext in Zhang Ze's words, but did not back down, and further distanced himself from the zombie man and Fei Youliang.
"666 also has joint operations."
"Wow, is this some kind of role-reversal play? This is so embarrassing! What if the female staff members did it too...?"
"Hey, that's disgusting! I... I want to see fan art within a day!"
The onlookers were in an uproar.
Many tourists who were annoyed by the long queues were no longer annoyed. Even if they didn't get to visit the haunted house all day, just buying a ticket to New Century Park was enough to see such an exciting competition.
Even if I die, it'll be worth the ticket price!!
"It's a promise, double happiness!"
Zhang Ze was confident.
When Fei Youliang walked over, he was accompanied by a friend. However, since they were teaming up, Fei Youliang whispered a few words to his friend and asked him to wait outside for the time being.
Team formation complete.
Zhang Ze and Fei Youliang experience Chen Ge's new scene, Muyang Middle School.
Chen Ge and the zombie man experience Zhang Ze's new scene: the midnight police station.
After signing liability waivers, paying for tickets, and completing a series of other preparations, the two teams entered their respective haunted houses under the watchful eyes of countless people.
Zhang Ze entered Chen Ge's haunted house. Although it was his first time there, he was already quite familiar with it.
If you ask why...
Zhang Ze had been spying for a long time using his crow's vision, so he was naturally very familiar with the process.
"This way, our new scene at Muyang Middle School is underground. Please be prepared. Taking photos and videos is prohibited once inside. Muyang Middle School has four small scenes: the fifth toilet stall, the deep well, the Ouija board, and the last classroom. The exit is hidden in these four scenes."
Xu Wan works as a staff member.
Although she was originally a staff member.
However, the little girl was a bit nervous as it was her first time in a new scene. Her cheeks were flushed, and she was clearly very nervous, afraid that she would mess up in front of so many people.
"Okay, one of the four scenarios, right? I get it."
Zhang Ze smiled and said.
He didn't need to think about where the exit was at all.
Just kidding, he's a time traveler. If he can't even find the exit, then his time travel would have been a complete waste.
However, out of a desire to have fun and to indulge in Fei Youliang's quirky humor, Zhang Ze still planned to leisurely experience all four small scenes and appreciate Boss Chen's masterpiece.
"You're the owner of the haunted house, so you should know these tricks. Many of the scares in modern haunted houses are old tropes. Besides, I just saw the old scenes in this haunted house: the zombie resurrection night and the ghost marriage. The props are crudely made, and the puppets are cheap and low-quality. There's nothing to be afraid of."
"Let me be frank from the start, I've already been to all the famous old haunted houses in China, so this kind of place that looks cheap and doesn't scare me at all."
"After I finish the speedrun, I'm going to challenge your haunted house. I hope you'll take it seriously."
Fei Youliang went on and on, rambling on and on.
They seemed to completely disregard Boss Chen's haunted house.
They were even plotting how to teach Zhang Ze a lesson.
"Okay, I welcome that."
Zhang Ze was still smiling brightly.
The more arrogant Fei Youliang is now, the more terrified he will be later.
When Fei Youliang saw Zhang Ze's grinning face, his lips twitched. He felt slighted, but he still snorted and silently made a grudge against Zhang Ze.
After we finish playing in this lousy haunted house...
Then they went out and kicked Zhang Ze's haunted house!
"The game has officially started."
"If you're really scared, you can call the security camera, and I'll come out and take you away," Xu Wan said, closing the door behind her.
Zhang Ze looked at the passageway leading to the basement. It was dark and deep, like a corridor leading to hell. A chill emanated from the darkness, seeping into his spine through his skin.
next second.
Suddenly, a background music started playing in the air.
The background music plays intermittently, as if someone is whispering in your ear, but you can't hear anything clearly when you listen carefully. Instead, it makes your hair stand on end and makes you instinctively tense.
Friday the 13th.
The fact that Boss Chen made Xu Wan play this background music means he doesn't intend to give the two of them a good outcome.
