36: Mr. Ghost, please be gentle with me later~
Watching the increasing traffic in his live stream, Baba Le cast an appreciative glance at Xiao Hu.
“You little rascal, you’re so quick-witted, always knowing how to cooperate! I’ll give you a raise when we get back!”
However, Xiao Hu’s stunned and bewildered expression made him pause.
Only then did Baba Le notice that the eerie and terrifying music wasn’t coming from Xiao Hu’s side.
Instead… a chill immediately ran up Baba Le’s spine, surging all the way to his crown.
Because the camera was continuously focused on Baba Le, the viewers in the live stream clearly captured the shock on his face.
Ai Luoli: "Holy crap, the streamer's expression doesn't look faked!"
Qiqi Wuqiqi: "Has the streamer studied acting? That look of terror is amazing!"
I Love Lele’s Mom: "Now, to be a streamer, do you also need acting skills?"
Yila Meishi: "Head tilted, puzzled?"
The Ghost of the Haunted House: "Heh~"
Wangzai Milk is Very White: "Don't scare people upstairs!"
'Jingang Zuan Ciqi' Big Brother: "I’m scared, but things seem to be getting interesting! Streamer, go take a look at the Haunted House, I’ll send you a rocket!"
...
The chat in the live stream was scrolling rapidly, with many people encouraging Baba Le to go investigate.
At this moment, Xiao Hu seemed to have seen something, his eyes widening immensely.
“Ba… Ba Ge, look… look behind you…”
He pointed tremblingly behind Baba Le, his face pale, his lips quivering.
Baba Le felt a bitter taste in his mouth.
Could it be that after hunting geese all his life, he was finally going to have his eyes pecked out by a goose today?!
But those in this line of work never lacked courage.
Although he felt a chill, when he saw that the two wealthy benefactors, “Ai Luoli” and “'Jingang Zuan Ciqi' Big Brother,” had already stated that they would send him rockets if he dared to take a peek at the Haunted House, he steeled himself.
“Damn it, man dies for wealth, birds die for food. For the rockets, I’ll risk it!”
Thinking about how he usually begged and pleaded, making a fool of himself, and no one would send him a sports car, but now, just by peeking at the Haunted House, he’d get rockets, his eyes immediately turned red.
Such easy money, why wouldn’t he go? Why shouldn’t he go?
Baba Le’s legs were trembling, but he still slowly turned around and looked towards the Haunted House.
But that one glance almost made him wet himself on the spot.
He saw a faint yellow light, which had appeared at the entrance of the Haunted House at some unknown time.
Although the distance was too far to see clearly.
But against the backdrop of that eerie, faint, and terrifying music, that ball of light looked like nothing so much as a ghost fire!
As Baba Le turned around, the live stream camera also clearly captured that “ghost fire”!
Wangzai Milk is Very White: "WTF!"
Yu Zhishui Qing: "Oh my god, there really are ghosts!"
Ai Mo Laohu Pigu: "In a scientific socialist society, how can ghosts be rampant! Hmph, take this, old monk’s great spell of closing the live stream!"
Yuyu Yuyu: "Ah ah ah! I’m almost scared to death! Which female benefactor is willing to come into my bed to comfort me!"
...
The chat scrolling speed in the live stream clearly went up another notch.
“Gulp!”
“Gulp!”
The sound of swallowing synchronized perfectly.
Baba Le’s smile was uglier than a cry, and he grabbed Xiao Hu by the collar, who was about to turn and run.
“Xiao Hu, I’ve always treated you well, haven’t I? At such a critical moment, you have to advance and retreat with me!”
“Let go of me! Let go of me!”
Xiao Hu struggled like a pig being slaughtered.
However, his small frame was completely powerless in front of Baba Le.

Lu Chuan stood bored in front of his stall.
The recommended short videos were indeed entertaining, but after watching for a while, Lu Chuan found them somewhat uninteresting.
He simply opened a video website and started looking for movies.
He didn’t watch anything that cost money.
He clicked on the free ones.
“Hmm?”
Lu Chuan’s eyes lit up.
“This one looks a bit interesting!”
He pressed with his index finger.
The next moment, “Ah ah ah” moaning sounds began to ring out.
Lu Chuan immediately blushed and shook his head.
“Hehe, so nice to listen to!”
After a brief vocal chant, the singing began.
“The night is quiet and deep, facing the bright moon, the bright moon shines clearly.”
“Traveling to the ends of the earth, leaving home, sadly looking at the moon.”
“How can I bear to look back at my hometown from the ends of the earth, longing in the dark every night.”
“Smiling at the bright moon, the moonlight shines on the courtyard.”
“Shining on joyful reunions and happiness, warmth and joy abound.”
“Sure enough, for ghost movies, you still have to watch Uncle Lin’s. The opening theme song of this TV series is also good, it seems to be called ‘Wanderer at the End of the World’.”
Lu Chuan watched the TV series, and then, thinking of the Haunted House behind him, he suddenly felt a sense of immersion.
Even on a hot day, he felt much cooler.
“This is much more awesome than those 5D movies in big cities!”
After watching for a while, Lu Chuan’s ears suddenly twitched.
It seemed like there were voices in the distance?
Who would come to this abandoned amusement park so late at night?
Lu Chuan squinted his eyes, silently turned off the sound, and then picked up a lemon-mashing stick from nearby.
The system said there were no ghosts, so whoever was coming must be human.
But whether they were good people or bad people, sometimes it was hard to say.
To be safe, he’d better grab a weapon.
When boys are out, they still have to protect themselves~
---
Baba Le’s heart was lodged in his throat, unable to swallow or spit it out.
As for Xiao Hu behind him, he was even more disheveled.
This kind of situation, knowing there are tigers in the mountain yet still heading towards them, truly required borrowing from Liang Jingru and getting a huge amount of courage.
As they got closer to the Haunted House, Baba Le, who had originally been chattering endlessly, using chatting with his live stream viewers to bolster his courage, unconsciously fell silent, afraid of disturbing some presence in the Haunted House.
“I’ll just take one look at your territory, just one look. Let me earn two rockets, and I’ll leave immediately!”
“I’ll come back during the day to offer you incense and apologize!”
Baba Le almost screamed in his heart, hoping his thoughts would be captured by some presence, and he would be let off the hook.
Then, the mournful music seemed to have truly heard his inner thoughts.
The music, which had been playing vigorously, suddenly stopped dead.
This abrupt change almost made Baba Le and Xiao Hu lose their courage to move forward.
Fortunately, they stood still for a while, and seeing that nothing happened, they continued to move forward tremblingly.
At this time, the viewers in the live stream were also chatting wildly.
The number of people in the live stream was also increasing rapidly at an alarming rate.
After all, who wouldn’t be confused by that title?
“Is the streamer really encountering a ghost?! Come in quickly to see the streamer’s hundred ways to die!”
In addition, the viewers in the live stream also actively invited friends to watch.
The platform, seeing how much traffic this live stream was attracting, was also delighted and once again heavily promoted it.
With the cooperation of all three parties, Baba Le’s live stream was actually pushed to the homepage.
And once on the homepage, the speed of attracting traffic went up to a new level.
In a short time, the actual number of online viewers in the live stream had already exceeded ten thousand and was still growing!
“This immense fortune has finally fallen upon me!”
Amidst his fear, Baba Le also felt an intoxicating joy.
“Oh, Ghost-sama, please be gentle with me later~”
