163: No matter how fierce he is, can he be fiercer than the red-clothed vengeful spirit?

The Boatman himself hadn't expected to receive such an instruction.

Soon, he reacted and replied with a serious tone.

At the same time, his gaze involuntarily turned towards the steps on the bank.

At this moment, the Boatman had already secretly sworn an oath in his heart.

Today, even if a Taoist priest came down, as long as the other party made a move on other guests, he would have to intervene!

He would have to do it, even if it meant biting the bullet!

"Mm, remember, don't let the other party harm any other guests."

"Of course, if the other party doesn't make a move, you'll follow the previous rules."

After editing the message to send to Chen Chuan, Li Zhou put down his phone and looked back at the screen.

Incidentally, he gave the Boatman another instruction in his mind.

This young man was clearly a dangerous individual. At first, Li Zhou had considered having his employee directly apprehend him.

What if he was a dangerous individual?

No matter how dangerous he was, could he be more dangerous than his own employees?

Not to mention Zombie Goethe and Red Spirit, even a Boatman could easily handle him.

It was only later that Li Zhou suddenly thought of a very good promotional method.

Song Yang and the others hadn't truly entered Screening Room No. 13 yet.

As a bizarre ghost story instance, Screening Room No. 13 was very difficult to clear with too few people, so Li Zhou set a minimum requirement of sixteen people to enter.

This was also currently the instance in the Haunted House that required the most people.

At this time, with the addition of the young man, once the Boatman sent him over, the number of people would be just right.

Li Zhou wasn't worried that this group of Passerby Players wouldn't follow Song Yang into Screening Room No. 13.

Firstly, the other instances either required six or ten people, so the numbers didn't match.

As long as they crossed the river, Li Zhou had a million ways to get this group of Passerby Players to enter Screening Room No. 13 together.

A murderer scared into an idiot in a Haunted House?

This gimmick seemed quite good.

Looking at the young man's calm face on the screen, Li Zhou chuckled.

The text message had been edited and sent to Chen Chuan.

However, the content of the message was not a notification, but an inquiry.

It was inquiring about the young man's true identity.

Although as long as he was in the Haunted House, even if a cold-blooded killer truly came, Li Zhou had a way to ensure he couldn't harm any other customers.

After all, no matter how fierce he was, could he be fiercer than the Red-Clothed Vengeful Spirit?

If the other party was truly a born killer, the kind who liked to butcher people at the drop of a hat, he wouldn't mind letting the other party know what a true butcher was.

But as the saying goes, know yourself and your enemy, and you will never be defeated.

To be safe, Li Zhou still chose to ask about the other party's identity first.

Chen Chuan was probably busy and didn't reply.

Li Zhou wasn't in a hurry; there was still plenty of time.

The interesting part was yet to come.

On the other side, the young man had successfully walked from the steps to the edge of the dark river.

Upon seeing the dark river and the small boat on it, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.

The reason he hadn't been scared by the Insect Tide and BGM upstairs earlier was because he had already seen and heard them through the main door before entering the Haunted House.

He hadn't expected that there would be another world beneath this Haunted House.

Quite interesting.

Licking his lips, the young man walked towards the seven other Passerby Players who had been waiting for a long time.

He didn't notice that on the small boat on the river, a figure was silently watching his every move.

At this moment, the Boatman let out a long sigh of relief.

Heaven knew how nervous he had been when he heard Li Zhou's instructions earlier.

At first, he thought the person who made the boss personally issue an order would at least be someone of his own level.

But the moment he saw the young man, he instantly relaxed.

It was just someone who had killed a few people; he had almost treated him as a formidable enemy.

For a character like this, he could easily handle him just by revealing his true form.

The young man didn't know that he had been targeted by a genuine Boatman.

After arriving at the small boat, and after introductions from the other seven Passerby Players, he happily chose to share a boat with them.

Soon, the eight people successfully boarded the boat, and the Boatman began to row the oars methodically.

"Little brother, are you here alone?"

"You're quite brave."

Perhaps because of the fame of Tianfeng Haunted House, everyone on the boat, except for the young man, felt more or less nervous looking at the dark river around them.

One of the Passerby Players closest to the young man started to strike up a conversation with him to alleviate his nervousness.

Hearing his words, everyone else subconsciously looked at the young man.

They hadn't thought much of it just now, but now that their companion mentioned it, the others also realized.

This young man in front of them seemed indeed very brave to dare to come alone.

"Hehe, I usually like exciting things, so I came alone."

Facing everyone's gaze, the young man's expression didn't change, and he chuckled.

"Then you're really amazing!"

"You don't know, just now outside, I was scared by those two Black and White Impermanence."

"No wonder this Haunted House is so popular; it's really not ordinary!"

The Passerby Player sitting with the young man was clearly a chatterbox.

Seeing that the young man seemed easy to talk to, he immediately opened up, praising Tianfeng Haunted House profusely.

One moment he pointed at the stalactites above, saying how amazing they were.

The next moment he pointed at the river around them, saying how realistic it was.

Finally, he even subconsciously reached out, preparing to point at the Boatman who was silently rowing the boat.

Fortunately, his companion noticed his action and stopped him in time.

"You, did you forget the warning?"

"Be careful, he'll throw you off the boat directly!"

"Hehe, my bad, my bad, sorry!"

Facing his companion's reprimand, the Passerby Player sitting next to the young man immediately realized, scratched his head, and said to everyone.

The young man, however, raised an eyebrow at this moment and turned to look at the Boatman behind him.

"Hmm?"

Suddenly, as if sensing something, the young man's brow furrowed sharply.

Withdrawing his gaze, he quickly looked around.

A strange chill rose from his heart, as if he was being targeted by something terrifying.

The young man, who hadn't felt this way for countless years, felt his fingers begin to twitch uncontrollably.

However, very quickly, before he could think further, the chill in his heart rapidly receded.

"He has some perception."

At the stern of the boat, the Boatman, shrouded in darkness, looked at the young man with his tightly furrowed brow, a hint of surprise appearing on his face.

Just now, when he saw the young man turn his head, he was thinking about how he would apprehend him without alarming other guests if the other party made a move.

He hadn't expected that such a subtle thought would be perceived by the young man.

This sixth sense was already far beyond ninety-nine percent of people in the world.

"Strange, did I expose myself?"

The young man didn't know that the chill in his heart was caused by the seemingly ordinary Boatman behind him.

After muttering to himself, a trace of madness and evil, completely mismatched with his calm face, flashed deep in his eyes.

Never mind, he was already here.

Today, he was going to have a big one, no matter what!
