2: The most terrifying house ever? Send me the address!
The moment he saw the zombie turn around, Li Zhou immediately covered his ears.
"Ah!!!"
Fang Xiaolu, abandoning her usual playfulness, let out a terrified shriek like a pig being slaughtered.
Her legs gave out, and she uncontrollably collapsed to the ground.
"Boss, save, save, save, save me!"
It just goes to show that real things are more effective than fake ones.
The zombie hadn't even made a move, and Fang Xiaolu was already so scared she kept rolling towards Li Zhou.
Yes, she was rolling.
She couldn't help it; her legs had turned to jelly, so this was her only option.
Watching Fang Xiaolu, who was almost rolling so fast she was a blur on the ground, screaming for help, Li Zhou covered his ears and nodded in satisfaction again.
Look at this effect.
Just a glance, and the power was terrifying.
One must know, the zombie's terror level was only 0.5.
Li Zhou could already imagine the scene of future players coming to the Haunted House, screaming for their mothers after being scared by a group of terrifying employees.
"Wuwuwu, Boss, this... this zombie is alive!"
Just as Li Zhou was smirking, imagining players scared out of their wits, his pant leg was suddenly grabbed by a trembling small hand.
Fang Xiaolu looked up, revealing a pair of watery big eyes.
Her small face was smudged with a lot of dust, making her look quite comical.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Where would I find a live zombie for you?"
"This was specially customized by me, your boss, at a great expense. How about it, isn't it awesome?"
Li Zhou gave the zombie a wink, and it immediately understood.
It instantly stopped moving, and its eyes flickered like a flash, green one moment, red the next, incredibly intelligent.
Seeing this, Fang Xiaolu immediately looked a bit suspicious and shakily stood up.
"Really?"
"Boss, don't lie to me."
Just like Li Zhou earlier, she had genuinely been scared.
The zombie's appearance itself wasn't too bad; there were many mannequins in the Haunted House that looked more eerie and terrifying.
However, those mannequins were too deliberately designed to create a scary atmosphere, with blood and gore all over them, which made them seem somewhat fake.
After all, no one would believe there were really dead people in a Haunted House.
The zombie was different.
Its chilling aura was too realistic, almost palpable, striking directly at the soul!
Fang Xiaolu had just directly thought she had encountered a real zombie, so scared she was squealing like a pig.
"Why would I lie to you?"
"If it were a real zombie, do you think I would still be standing here?"
Li Zhou looked at the cowardly Fang Xiaolu and shook his head with a smile.
He definitely wouldn't reveal anything about the terrifying employees.
Fang Xiaolu felt that Li Zhou made a lot of sense, and the suspicion in her eyes vanished, replaced by joy.
"Then the Haunted House is saved!"
Fang Xiaolu dared to say that no NPC in any Haunted House in the city was as realistic as the one in front of her.
Even now, she still felt a lingering fear and didn't dare to go over and touch it.
"Of course, your boss, I, have gone all out this time."
Li Zhou put his hands on his hips.
"Just you wait and see, this time, I will reclaim everything I've lost."
"Hehehe!"
Watching Li Zhou let out an evil laugh towards the sky, Fang Xiaolu felt that the zombie didn't seem so terrifying anymore.
As if she had thought of something, she weakly raised her hand and suddenly interrupted, "But Boss, our store hasn't had any players for a week now."
"No matter how realistic it is, someone has to come and play..."
...The air suddenly fell silent.
Li Zhou slowly lowered his head, his brows furrowed.
He felt that Fang Xiaolu's words seemed to make some sense.
After all, sometimes, even good wine fears deep alleys.
"I've got it!"
Suddenly, Li Zhou's eyes lit up.
He pulled out his phone, and under Fang Xiaolu's puzzled gaze, he opened the... TikTok app!
After fiddling with it for a bit, a livestream room appeared before the two of them.
"Brothers, the place you recommended last time wasn't scary at all."
"Can you put some pressure on the Streamer?"
"The Streamer really wants to be scared!"
On the screen, a man with a very comical appearance was winking impishly at the camera, giving people an inexplicable urge to hit him.
Song Yang, an outdoor Streamer on TikTok.
He had accumulated many fans due to his humorous and witty livestream style.
However, initially, he didn't have many fans.
It wasn't until later, when he started challenging himself to explore terrifying places, that he gradually became popular.
Just recently, he had followed his fans' suggestion to go to an abandoned mental hospital.
It turned out this guy really had something; in places ordinary people wouldn't dare approach, he not only slept there but even snored.
[Streamer, last time was an accident, who knew that abandoned mental hospital still had electricity!]
[Exactly, with lights on everywhere, I'd dare to go too!]
[Streamer, you're so despicable, I love you so much, can I poke you in the middle of the night?]
[I really want to slap the Streamer, but I'm afraid he'll enjoy it and lick my hand]
[Excuse me, is this TikTok's boldest livestream room?]
The bullet comments scrolled, saying all sorts of things.
Song Yang glanced at them, first muting the person who said they liked him, then grinned and said, "Streamer, I'm in Jinling now, do you have any good places to recommend?"
"If not, then today I'll just do a normal outdoor livestream."
Hearing that it would just be a normal outdoor livestream, the bullet comments immediately grew anxious.
But these people came from all over the country, and not many knew much about Jinling.
For a while, not many people suggested anything that would attract Song Yang.
"Haha, looks like today will just be an outdoor livestream."
"It's fine, the Streamer plans to stay in Jinling for half a month, so you can think slowly, no rush."
"Anyway, by the time you think of something, it'll probably only be enough to scare the little kids in the bullet comments."
"Scaring the Streamer? That's a tough one."
Song Yang spoke again, his tone still impish, making many people in the bullet comments grit their teeth.
They really wanted to see this scoundrel scared out of his wits.
But unfortunately, this beast was truly bold.
Things like using blood to dot the eyes of paper figures, stealing offerings from cemeteries in the middle of the night, and shouting "I'm so lonely" at a crossroads on Ghost Festival were all normal operations for him.
Ordinary places really couldn't scare him.
"Boss, this guy is really despicable."
Outside the Haunted House, Fang Xiaolu looked at Song Yang on the phone, her small canine teeth grinding audibly.
Li Zhou didn't speak. He silently opened the tip interface and topped up a thousand big bucks in one go.
"Yo, thanks to the boss named 'Jinling's Strongest Haunted House' for the super yacht tip! Boss is generous, love you, mwah!"
[This boss, you're confused! Wouldn't it be better to tip female Streamers with this money?]
[Wait, look at this boss's ID, it's interesting!]
[Jinling's Strongest Haunted House... Is this an advertisement?]
[Streamer, I want to get a new phone recently, do you have any recommendations?]
[Streamer, my younger brother went abroad, he's in Sydney now, I really miss my Sydney brother!]
[...]
As the bullet comments scrolled, Song Yang belatedly realized that Li Zhou's ID was a bit unusual.
"Hmm? Is this boss calling me out?"
"But places like Haunted Houses really don't pose much of a challenge for the Streamer."
Hearing Song Yang's words, Li Zhou didn't hesitate and tipped another yacht worth five hundred big bucks.
He also attached a bullet comment: [If you can still walk out of the Haunted House by yourself, ten yachts!]
Ten yachts?
Five thousand big bucks?
Seeing Li Zhou's bullet comment, Song Yang immediately raised an eyebrow.
"You said it, ten yachts!"
"Hehehe, brothers, it's still early anyway, so the Streamer will take you to see what kind of Haunted House this boss has."
"To dare to call it the strongest, he probably doesn't know my name, Song the Bold!"
"Send the address, I'll be there shortly!"
