Chapter 805 The Haunted Dormitory 13
Ji Yan breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this, wrote two large "thank you" characters on a piece of paper, and held it up in front of Xu Siyao.
Regardless of whether she could see it because it was dark inside, I still had to express my gratitude.
Xu Siyao could see clearly: "Go to sleep, things should be quiet tonight."
Ji Yan nodded and lay down on his couch.
He looked at the figure on the bed, his expression somewhat complicated.
next day
Early in the morning, Xu Siyao and Ji Yan headed towards the ancestral hall.
After they came out today, they didn't see anyone in the Meng residence, including Liu Yun. Anyone who didn't know better would think it was an empty mansion.
The two quickly arrived at the ancestral hall. Upon entering, they saw that the platform was filled with ancestral tablets, which should be the ancestral tablets of the Meng family.
[It looks like there's nothing here,] Ji Yan wrote on the paper.
Xu Siyao remained silent for the moment, staring at the memorial tablet placed in the very center.
After a long pause, she finally smiled and said, "Yes, I've found the exit."
[Really? Where?]
"Go and take down the memorial tablet right in the middle."
Upon hearing this, Ji Yan didn't ask any further questions. Trusting her words, he went straight to get it.
As soon as he took the memorial tablet down, a familiar passage appeared in front of the two of them.
[So easy? I thought today would be dangerous.]
"They probably took advantage of people's fear of coming to the ancestral hall. They all thought they couldn't go to the ancestral hall, so they didn't know that passing through the gate at the appointed time was very easy."
Ji Yan felt something was wrong, but couldn't quite put her finger on it.
However, having already found the way through the level, he didn't dwell on it any further.
"Let's go." Xu Siyao said, lifting her foot and walking into the passage, with Ji Yan following behind.
After the two left, the passage closed.
Two people appeared in the ancestral hall: Meng's eldest sister and Liuyun.
"They're finally gone." Liu Yun patted his chest and said with a sigh of relief.
The eldest sister of the Meng family still smelled of burning. She frowned and said, "I went to report someone for cheating last night, but it didn't work."
"Forget it, we were just unlucky to run into a tough opponent this time. Anyway, we've already sent them away."
"Humph."

Xu Siyao returned to her dormitory and lay down to rest.
In the world of ghost stories, almost two days have passed, but only half a day has passed here.
A countdown timer was displayed on the door, indicating that the monster had already visited the other dormitories, and it was time to go out.
She sent messages to Zhang Siyu and Zhao Lu, but neither of them replied after a while.
They probably haven't come out yet. Hopefully, they're both alright.
thump - thump - thump
A knock sounded on the door, and Xu Siyao looked up to see Ji Yan standing by the window.
She went over and opened the door: "Why are you here?"
Ji Yan waved the large bag in his hand, which contained instant noodles, milk tea, self-heating rice, and other items that looked like they were bought from a store.
"I brought you some food as a thank you. Without you, I probably wouldn't have been able to clear the game so easily."
"You're too kind, I was just helping out."
"Of course, you should keep it."
Since that's the case, Xu Siyao didn't hesitate: "Okay, you can put it at the foot of my bed."
Ji Yan closed the door, put his things down, and looked somewhat conflicted: "Um, I actually wanted to ask you another question."
"Ask away." Xu Siyao sat on the edge of the bed and looked at him.
"Are you Xu Siyao?" Ji Yan asked, staring intently at her expression.
Unfortunately, if Xu Siyao doesn't want people to see her true emotions, it's very difficult for them to find any flaws.
What do you mean by that??
As expected, this person was someone the original owner had known since childhood, even though the two didn't have much interaction after starting school.
“I just feel that you have changed a lot. Although our two families don’t visit each other often, we do see each other during Chinese New Year visits.”
It's normal for personality to change as one grows up.
However, she gives off a mysterious vibe and possesses abilities far beyond those of ordinary people.
Xu Siyao, of course, would not admit it; she looked at him with unwavering eyes.
"I am Xu Siyao, but I unexpectedly gained some special experiences and abilities."
That explanation does make sense, but Ji Yan felt it wasn't just that.
However, after looking at her for a while, he suddenly felt that it didn't matter anymore.
No matter who she is, she is Xu Siyao now.
Ji Yan smiled and said, "I understand. You're fine the way you are."
Upon hearing this, Xu Siyao was slightly surprised that he accepted it so quickly, and couldn't help but look him over.
When she noticed him looking at her, his eyebrows were raised, his gaze lingered for a long time, and his eyes were focused and smiling.
She was familiar with that look in her eyes, and she didn't say anything.
He pointed to the door: "I have three hours left. I'm going to take a shower."
"Yes, I want to go too. The rewards the system mentioned should be given after everyone returns."
"should be."
It was nine o'clock in the evening, and the chat room was filled with the sounds of everyone discussing.
Big-Greed Girl: "Oh my god, this ghost story world is too scary, I almost died of fright."
Donut: "The scariest thing was that someone was talking in my ear when I was sleeping at night. I almost opened my eyes and never came back."
The state does not protect waste: "Once you're inside, you become mute and can't speak. You also have to deal with those weird things. It's really suffocating."
Helping an elderly woman cross a red light: "On the last day, I was chased around by monsters. If I hadn't found the way back, they would have eaten me."
Little Lucky: "The game rules are also a trap. They said we weren't allowed to go to the ancestral hall, but who knew the exit was inside the ancestral hall."
Guan Li Shenme Shi: "Look, the number of people has dropped from 10,000 to just over 4,000. In just one day, more than 5,000 people have been lost."
"The newlyweds were eaten by the monster, and there are far fewer old people. This time, a lot of people really didn't make it out."
Contentment brings happiness: "It seems no new people have spoken up; they seem to be unaware of our chat."
Aobao Meeting: "Perhaps, we can't just tell them the rules of the game directly."
Xu Siyao also received replies from Zhang Siyu and Zhao Lu, and thankfully both of them came out.
The rain was pouring down: "Siyao, boohoo~ I was so scared. I thought I would never see you again. I used to think that reading novels and watching videos of the Rules of the Strange only made me feel excited. But after going in there myself, I realized how scary it was."
Far ahead: "It's good that you're out. You'll become bolder and bolder in the future."
The rain was heavy: "Yes, yes, luckily my partner, the groom, is someone I know. Otherwise, being alone in this eerie world would be even more terrifying."
Far ahead: "Are you classmates from the same department?"
"Yes, it was that guy Yeltsin. Luckily, he was someone we knew. Siyao, what about you? Did you recognize the person you met?"
"I know him; it's Ji Yan."
The rain was pouring down: "Oh, it was him. I remember you two were childhood sweethearts."
Far ahead: "Our two families are neighbors."
"It's all the same, I wonder what the reward will be this time."
Zhang Siyu is quite bold; her fear only lasts for a moment, and once it's over, she starts to wonder what kind of reward she might receive.
