127: You can only scare them, you can't just bite them directly.
After giving a few instructions, Li Zhou walked into the Haunted House.
Red Spirit happened to walk out of the lounge at this moment.
She was holding a large bag in her hand.
"Boss, all these pants were left behind by previous guests."
"Should I throw them away?"
Holding the bag, Red Spirit asked Li Zhou, her expression normal, as if she couldn't smell the faint, unpleasant odor.
"Why would I keep them for Chinese New Year?"
Li Zhou said, raising his eyebrows.
It seemed he would have to set up a special place to store the pants players changed out of in the future.
Although some players would take their changed pants with them, many would just leave them in the lounge because they found it troublesome or were embarrassed.
Red Spirit nodded and walked out of the Haunted House with the bag.
Li Zhou continued walking deeper into the Haunted House.
Soon, he arrived at the Hundred Ghosts Cemetery.
The Hundred Ghosts Cemetery, located in the deepest part of the Haunted House, was pretty much the same as before.
It was just that one of the coffins had unknowingly grown faint white hairs, looking very eerie.
Wisps of陰氣 spread out from the broken cracks, and the entire cemetery felt like it had air conditioning, the temperature was very cold.
Perceiving Li Zhou's arrival, the zombie, who had been lying in its coffin ready to go off duty and rest, jumped out again.
"Bo... Boss!"
As before, the zombie's speech was still a bit slurred.
Looking at Li Zhou, a wisp of dark black mist jumped from its eye sockets, and its heart seemed a little restless.
"I just came to take a look, don't be so nervous."
Looking at the seemingly restless zombie, Li Zhou waved his hand and said with a smile.
Although his three fright employees were performing well at the moment, he still liked the zombie the most.
It wasn't because it was his first employee; more so, it was because this guy was a bit less intelligent compared to the other two.
As a boss, he liked this kind of employee.
Similar to Xiao Lu, he only needed to give instructions for things to be done.
Finding a random coffin to sit on as a chair, Li Zhou waved to the zombie.
Seeing this, the zombie quickly hopped forward.
"You've been here for a while now, haven't you?"
"How is it, do you find it hard?"
Looking at the zombie in front of him, Li Zhou asked with a smile.
He hadn't talked to the zombie in a long time.
After hearing Red Spirit say that almost all the players outside were scared by the zombie in front of him, he had the idea to come and see.
Although the number of players it served was not as many as Goethe, the zombie's work intensity was much higher than Goethe's.
After all, Goethe didn't have to worry about anything in the castle.
The zombie was different.
The psychological endurance of players coming to challenge the Haunted House now had generally started to decline, far from the high-level players who first came to the Haunted House.
If it wasn't careful, these players would just pass out.
Although these players had signed an agreement before entering the Haunted House.
But there was no guarantee that some players wouldn't harbor a侥幸心理, concealing any special circumstances.
This would be fine in the castle, but outside, if it scared someone to death, that would be a big problem.
So during this time, the zombie almost never treated these players the way it treated Song Yang before.
To be on the safe side, it reverted to its most primitive method of scaring people.
Extend its hands, jump on two legs, and chase!
Li Zhou had also seen its every move on the surveillance cameras these days.
It could be said that it was the hardest working employee in the entire Haunted House.
"Not... not hard!"
Hearing Li Zhou's question, the zombie shook its head and said.
It wasn't pretending; besides being a little troublesome, it genuinely didn't feel tired.
This was much easier than when it was being chased by those Maoshan Taoists before.
Dueling with those Taoists meant risking its life at every turn.
Now, it only needed to hop a few times to get fright value to enhance its strength every month; compared to before, it could be considered heaven.
"As long as it's not hard."
"If you have any requests, just tell me."
"Don't worry, I won't refuse."
Li Zhou chuckled, once again skillfully drawing a picture of a promising future.
Hearing this, the zombie nodded, a hint of emotion surfacing in its not-so-bright mind.
Although the zombie's mind wasn't very sharp, it knew that if it were exposed to the secular world, it would definitely be besieged.
When it was first summoned by the system, it was told that this world, besides having powerful Taoists, also had various weapons with terrifying destructive power.
If it left the Haunted House, its fate would definitely not be better than in its previous world!
This person in front of it not only provided shelter, paid it a salary every month, but also cared about it so much.
Where could it find such a boss?
"Oh, right, there's something you should pay attention to."
Li Zhou took out his phone and once again pulled up the photo Chen Chuan had sent him.
"If you see this person in the future, don't hold back."
"Scare them however you can."
"However, you can only scare them, you can't bite them directly."
"Scaring them to death is no problem, but if you bite them to death, I can't protect you."
After showing the photo to the zombie, Li Zhou said.
Hearing his words, the zombie quickly nodded.
After glancing at the photo, it deeply imprinted the person's appearance in its mind.
"Alright, after a while, I'll arrange a dormitory for you."
"From now on, you won't have to sleep in a coffin anymore."
Uh... no, zombies usually sleep in coffins, don't they?
"Never mind, I'll give you a place anyway, and if you want to continue sleeping in a coffin, you can move one from here."
After giving his instructions, Li Zhou jumped off the coffin, clapped his hands, and left.
The zombie didn't return to its coffin and lie down until it saw his back disappear into the cemetery.
After leaving the cemetery, Li Zhou went to the outside of the castle.
Soon, Goethe, sensing his arrival, walked out of the castle.
"Remember this person; if you see them, you can give them a little extra 'care,' you know what I mean?"
Taking out the photo again, Li Zhou said.
Because the castle was different from the outside, he didn't say anything else.
The requirement was simple: scare them however you can.
Although he could instruct Goethe and the zombie to kill him directly.
But since the person killed someone, they should be judged by law.
All he could do was make them suffer a little before they were judged.
Of course, the premise was that the person could come to his place.
If they didn't come, he couldn't do anything.
"I understand, Boss."
Like the zombie, Goethe always followed Li Zhou's instructions.
He only glanced at the photo before looking away.
After nodding, he dragged his chainsaw back into the castle.
Ever since he was assigned to the castle, he found that this was the job he had always longed for.
He could freely indulge his inner brutality without being judged or condemned by the world.
As for compensation.
He naturally needed it too.
So, the Haunted House was simply his ideal paradise, tailor-made for him!
To keep things this way, Goethe was absolutely obedient to Li Zhou.
He had deeply memorized the appearance of the person just now.
If he ever encountered them in the future, he would definitely give them some special 'care.'
