Chapter 1130 – Some Friends Are Destined to Live Only in Memories

　　”Brother Ma, if there’s anything let’s go talk in the room next to us, the corridor is really very dangerous.” Xiao Sun grabbed Ma Feng’s arm and forcefully dragged him towards the other side of the corridor.

　　”Don’t, don’t, I thought about it for a while, I think it’s better to ……” Ma Feng was hopelessly dragged by Xiao Sun, he didn’t even have the strength to struggle anymore.

　　His head was dizzy, the world was spinning, his body hurt so much, his eyes were astringent, he had the feeling that he wanted to cry.

　　”Brother Ma, don’t say anything, I understand everything. But we’ve already run to the deepest part of the haunted house, this might be the last scene, are you really willing to give up like this? Then wouldn’t all our previous efforts be wasted?” Xiao Sun grabbed Ma Feng’s collar, “There are no desperate situations in the world, only people who are desperate about their situations, we may be just one step away from success.”

　　Ma Feng tensed his mouth, he looked at the darkness around him woodenly, everything was hidden in that darkness, the monsters, the ghosts, the dangers, and the way out.

　　Fingers slowly clenched harder, a faint fire lit up in Ma Feng’s eyes.

　　”Those who don’t believe in miracles will never be able to create miracles, and the haunted house owner also feels that no one will be able to escape from here, but if you think about it, isn’t a haunted house constructed just for people to visit? Is there really a haunted house in this world that you can’t pass and escape from?”

　　Xiao Sun’s words were full of power and pointed out the direction for Ma Feng.

　　Clenching his teeth, Ma Feng also felt that it would be a shame for him to give up now, he rubbed his dizzy head and slowly spoke, “Little Sun, let go first, I can walk by myself.”

　　Holding onto the wall and standing up straight, Ma Feng groped around the corridor a little bit, “There is a door every three meters, let’s stick to the wall and as long as we hear a cat call, we’ll directly hide inside the room. After entering the room, immediately close the door, one person guards behind the door and holds the door with his back, the other searches the room for secret passages. Let’s divide the work and maximize our strengths.”

　　”Good!” Seeing Ma Feng’s renewed hope, Xiao Sun even had a tearful feeling.

　　It was so inspirational that in a trance he even saw that unconvinced self.

　　Convinced that he was just an ordinary person, in order to lead a normal life, Xiao Sun would often read some words full of “power” to encourage himself.

　　”All the effort will surely pay off, Brother Ma, we can definitely find our way out!” Xiao Sun and Ma Feng encouraged each other as they trudged through the hallways.

　　All games had a way to pass, and Ma Feng was already a very smart and powerful person, he had very strong abilities of his own besides his flawed character.

　　Coupled with Xiao Sun’s help, he hadn’t adapted to the darkness yet, but he had found the pattern of the ghosts’ actions.

　　After being scared into a trance five more times, he and Little Sun finally arrived at the lowest level of the dark building.

　　Along the way, Ma Feng was bruised and battered, and in addition to the physical pain, his mind was subjected to inhumane torture.

　　Whenever Ma Feng was on the verge of passing out, Xiao Sun would be the first to wake him up, and that cry of Brother Ma made Ma Feng get lost in the edge of nightmare and reality.

　　He braced himself for a strong breath and held on until now.

　　After entering the last room on the bottom floor of the dark building, Ma Feng let out a long sigh of relief, and Xiao Sun sighed, “It’s really not easy, this scene is probably too much for a ghost to walk out of.”

　　”This is the last room, the secret passage should be here, double check.” Ma Feng’s voice was breathless, if there was light it could be noticed that his face was white and his lips were purple, that look was a match for the haunted house employees who had put on mortuary makeup.

　　The two entered the room and had just touched the bedroom door when they suddenly heard a man’s voice coming from inside the door.

　　”You’re the ninth person I’ve killed, so let’s see what I should take from you? A nose? An ear? Never mind, let’s take your eyes.”

　　”I know you’ve been searching for a secret passage, when in fact the way to escape is hidden in my room, in that bedroom full of cat corpses.”

　　”Wasn’t that desperate?”

　　”Knowing the way out but never being able to escape again, I love seeing the look on your face right now.”

　　After the man finished speaking, the sound of a knife cutting through something resounded in the bedroom again, followed by blood seeping out from under the doorway, and Ma Feng felt as if he had stepped on something sticky underneath his shoes.

　　”The murderer is giving us a hint that the way out is hidden in that room full of cat corpses!” Ma Feng’s face was already contorted, the exit was in the room he used to hide in, but he followed Xiao Sun all the way to the bottom floor of the building.

　　Without taking a breath, Ma Feng almost fainted from the anger, he took a step back and his shoes made a sound as they stepped on the bloody water.

　　”Who!”

　　The man’s voice came from the bedroom, followed by catcalls resounding through the house!

　　Knowing that they had been discovered, Ma Feng and Xiao Sun began to frantically run towards the outside.

　　”Go to the room full of cat corpses on the first floor!”

　　The Ultimate Murderer chased after them, and the entire dark building scene entered its most tense and terrifying moment.

　　Cat cries resounded everywhere, and Xiao Sun and Ma Feng played with their lives to run through the building.

　　Ma Feng’s heart was beating fast, this should be the most exciting experience in his life.

　　”No, I can’t run anymore, I can’t hold on!”

　　”Brother Ma! Believe in yourself!”

　　”I really can’t run anymore!”

　　”Don’t stop! We can win!”

　　Xiao Sun’s voice kept coming from the front, Ma Feng had completely lost his sense of direction at this point, and Xiao Sun’s voice of encouragement was his way forward in the darkness.

　　Chasing after Xiao Sun’s voice, Ma Feng inspired his body’s full potential, he tried his best to keep up with Xiao Sun’s pace.

　　The homicidal maniac was right behind him, following him like a shadow, and now the only way to have a slight chance of escaping was to leave this scene through the secret passage.

　　The sense of urgency was indescribable, and Ma Feng’s mind was left with only one thought – run!

　　His muscles memorized the height of the steps, and even if Ma Feng didn’t use his eyes to see, he wouldn’t trip over the steps every time he took a step.

　　”Cheer up! Don’t be afraid of the darkness! When the sky is dark to a certain extent, the stars will shine!”

　　”People can because we believe we can!”

　　”For grass should be an orchid, for wood a pine!”

　　The language of man contains the power of belief, and Ma Feng, whose spirit was in a trance and whose body was about to fall apart, was hardened by Xiao Sun’s encouragement to return to the topmost floor of the dark building.

　　He ran as fast as he could, all the distractions in his mind all disappeared, his consciousness seemed to have fused with his legs.

　　It was as if there was no more Ma Feng in the world, only a pair of legs running unheeded to find the exit.

　　Crashing through the door, Ma Feng and Xiao Sun rushed into the room filled with cat corpses, and they seemed to be rummaging through them like crazy.

　　The sound of cats screaming in the corridor became more and more shrill, and the entire scene seemed to have changed in some way, the walls were cracking, the building was shaking, and a mouth seemed to have appeared on the ground, seemingly ready to swallow the visitors in at any moment.

　　All sorts of strange sounds also began to appear, and what scared Ma Feng and Xiao Sun the most was that a voice very similar to Chen Ge was even ringing outside.

　　They didn’t hear what the voice was saying clearly, the two of them didn’t care and frantically moved the cat corpse away.

　　In the midst of the boundless darkness, a very faint light vaguely appeared, and Ma Feng’s hands moved faster.

　　”I see it! I think I see it!”

　　The bloody and dirty cat’s corpse was moved away, and underneath the carpet that had been piled up with death, a ray of raw light was hidden!

　　A faint beam of light shone in along the gap in the dark door, and the corners of Ma Feng’s eyes moistened as tears welled up in his eyes.

　　”It’s light, it’s light!”

　　He grabbed the handle of the dark door with all his might and pulled the door of the room with all his might.

　　”Fortunately, I didn’t give up! All the effort all paid off! The suffering I’ve endured will eventually become a gift from fate!” Ma Feng clenched his teeth, he had already thought about how he was going to spite Chen Ge when he got out.

　　Ma Feng opened the dark door, the faint light dispelled the darkness, and he stretched out his arms as if he was a flower blooming proudly in the darkness.

　　”Life is never truly desperate, no matter how many hardships one suffers, no matter how much suffering one goes through, as long as a person still carries a seed of faith in his heart, then one day he will be able to get out of his predicament and let his life blossom again.”

　　The gentle words of the book resounded through Ma Feng’s heart, and he ran into the secret passageway with the light, sprinting as fast as he could in his life!

　　Passing through the downward steps, a dark iron door appeared before him.

　　After enduring countless trials and tribulations, Ma Feng dragged his “bruised” body and ran to the black iron door.

　　”What is failure? Nothing, just one step closer to success; what is success? It is to have traveled all the paths leading to failure, leaving only one path left, and that is the path to success!”

　　Removing the chain on the door, Ma Feng pushed the iron door in front of him with both hands at the same time!

　　”It’s over! It’s finally over!”

　　Tears filled with all kinds of emotions slid down the corners of his eyes, a man’s tears are not light, just not yet sad.

　　”Boom!”

　　The black iron door crashed against the wall, and Ma Feng saw the scene behind the door.

　　The raging black mist blew his eyes open, and the tears that moved him were quickly air-dried.

　　”Bam!”

　　Losing his strength, his legs could no longer support his body, and Ma Feng sat down on the ground.

　　”Why?”

　　Three simple words but enough to show the complexity of Ma Feng’s heart at this time, hope and despair collided together, all expectations turned into a black fog.

　　Looking at the black fog in front of him, as well as the ghost fire looming in the fog, Ma Feng’s vision slowly pulled away, as if his soul was out of his body, he silently looked in a certain direction.

　　”Brother Ma ……” Xiao Sun gently pressed Ma Feng’s shoulder, the severe ghosts want to condense an entity need to constantly consume negative emotions and accumulated grievances, so the severe ghosts are in a state where they can’t be touched by a living person most of the time, but Xiao Sun felt that Brother Ma was worthy of condensing his own entity to comfort.

　　The powerful boss had hit a threshold in his life, and he needed help and encouragement now.

　　”The secret passage leads to the hidden scene, and we found the source of the black fog, which means we’re close to clearing the level!” Xiao Sun grabbed Ma Feng’s shoulders and shook them vigorously, “Pull yourself together!”

　　”I’m fine, I’m fine.” Ma Feng’s eyes were devoid of gloom and calculation, and his gaze looked a bit dull.

　　”Brother Ma, you’re not out of something, are you?” Xiao Sun felt that Ma Feng was in a state of delirium at this time, he was still hoping to change Virtual Future Land’s prejudice against House of Horrors through Ma Feng, but now that the prejudice hadn’t changed, the acting helmsman was about to go crazy.

　　”Older brother, we finally left the scene just now after so much suffering, it’s too bad that you’re giving up now. I was also expecting that behind the door is the exit just now, this is something that the haunted house owner might have thought of as well, he might have purposely designed the last scene, wanting to make people collapse in front of the exit.” Xiao Sun didn’t know what he was talking about, he wanted to cheer Ma Feng up now, “No matter what, we can’t stop now.”

　　Ma Feng seemed to have drunk too much chicken soup and was now allergic to it, he was still sitting on the ground with a dull expression.

　　He wanted to faint but couldn’t, he wanted to move his body but didn’t have the strength, wanting to go out was even more of a luxury, he could only sit in place now.

　　”Brother Ma! Do you think there is a more terrifying scene in this world than deprivation of vision? We just escaped from a scene of complete darkness, this building is in the deepest part of the town, it’s obviously the most terrifying scene, we might really only be one step away from clearing the level.” Little Sun began to convince people with reason.

　　Ma Feng slowly bottomed his head, he instinctively wanted to cover his ears, his hand was about to raise, he then suddenly felt stupid for doing so, “The only person who is helping me right now is Little Sun, perhaps he also sees me as a dependency. If I fall, I’m afraid he won’t be able to support me for long, this is the power of a team.”

　　His arm was grabbed by someone, Ma Feng subconsciously looked up and Xiao Sun’s simple face was reflected in his eyes.

　　”What’s wrong with me? I actually don’t even dare to touch the helping hand that someone else is reaching out to me?” Ma Feng was disgusted with himself like this, and he summoned up the last of his inner stubbornness, grabbed Xiao Sun’s hand, and slowly stood up.

　　”The junction of the two scenes is the most dangerous, we’ll be attacked by the two scenes’ severe ghosts at the same time, hurry up and leave.” Xiao Sun also didn’t know where the way out was, the exit of this scene might not have been designed yet, “Passing the level is impossible, let’s find a place to hide first, and just get through the sixty minutes of experience time.”

　　”Sixty, sixty minutes?” Ma Feng stumbled and almost fell again.

　　”We’ve already visited for forty minutes, just hold on a little longer.” Xiao Sun looked around, he made a judgment based on his memory, “There are man-eating monsters hidden in the black fog, the only safe place in this world is the residential building, we just need to hide in the residential building to have a chance to last the rest of the time.”

　　”I’ll listen to you.”

　　Ma Feng was in a trance, as if his soul had been scared and lost yet to be found, he just let Xiao Sun drag him wildly through the black mist.

　　A cursed face surfaced in the black mist, Ma Feng’s face muscles spasmed and occasionally he couldn’t control his laughter, he looked at those horrible monsters around him and had slowly forgotten where he was and who he was.

　　At this moment, he only had the still running Xiao Sun in his eyes, he admired Xiao Sun, in the middle of his not-so-happy life, Xiao Sun was the first person who made him feel reliable.

　　All the way, it can be said that nine deaths and one life, Xiao Sun finally took Ma Feng through the black fog, came to the residential building.

　　Pushing open the door of Building A of the Jinhua District, Xiao Sun led Ma Feng into the building.

　　”I know a room that has absolutely no ghosts or monsters in it, we can take a break there.”

　　Xiao Sun led Ma Feng into the house he once lived in, and as soon as he pushed open the door, he heard strange noises coming from the hallway.

　　”The other neighbors are coming over! You mustn’t speak.”

　　Xiao Sun pushed Ma Feng into the house, and he himself hid in the doorway, paying attention to the situation outside.

　　This room looked clean and ordinary, Ma Feng finally took a breath, he sat on the floor and looked at the posters of those singers on the walls.

　　His eyes swiveled, and Ma Feng suddenly saw a picture frame that had a young man holding a guitar on it.

　　He vaguely felt that the person in the photo looked somewhat familiar, and he reluctantly crawled over to the table and got the photo at the same time that a death certificate fell out from underneath the photo frame.

　　”Sun Xiaojun?”

　　An indescribable feeling of fear instantly engulfed Ma Feng, and he trembled all over.
