The ghost knocked on the door, luckily I was able to read the save file!

After a while, the door fell into a strange silence.

Zhao Shuang and Tong Tong's backs were completely soaked with cold sweat, but they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

The village chief Li seemed to have left.

However, at this moment, a rapid knock on the door broke the silence.

"Dong Dong Dong..."

The knock came from Lin Luo's room, which was particularly harsh in the silent night.

"Dong Dong Dong~"

"Dear guests, are you asleep? I brought you gifts from the provincial capital." The familiar and enthusiastic voice of Village Chief Li sounded at the door.

Hearing this, Lin Luo, who was standing at the window, suddenly looked down.

[Here it comes! ]

He quickly looked down at his watch and found that it was only half past eleven.

It was half an hour earlier than the knock on the door yesterday. He heard the knock on the door at twelve o'clock yesterday.

Lin Luo felt uneasy. He knew that things might get worse. The night was getting longer and the strange restraints were getting smaller.

As the knock on the door and the voice of Village Chief Li sounded, Zhao Qian, who was curled up in the corner of the room, couldn't stop shaking, as if he was in an ice cellar, and his whole body was a little cold. He covered his mouth tightly with both hands, fearing that he would make a sound.

Zhao Qian's terrified eyes, like a frightened rabbit, stared at the door tightly.

Lin Luo stared at the door, knowing in his heart that the person outside could never be the village chief.

The knock on the door came too suddenly, without any prelude, like a thunderclap at midnight, catching people off guard.

He clearly remembered that Village Chief Li was on crutches, and every step he took would make a slight sound.

However, now, the footsteps outside the door were so light that almost no movement could be heard. This abnormal situation made him alert.

Moreover, even if Village Chief Li really came back from the provincial capital, according to common sense, he should go back to his own home first, instead of choosing to knock on their door in the middle of the night.

After all, who would bother others in the middle of the night? All this seemed particularly strange, as if there was an invisible hand manipulating everything in the dark...

What's more, it was so late now that normal people would have gone to bed long ago.

All signs showed that the person outside the door was definitely not Village Chief Li.

Thinking of this, Lin Luo's heart instantly hung in his throat, as if it was about to jump out of his chest. He clenched his fists tightly, his palms sweating slightly, and his body was as tense as a fully drawn bow.

His eyes were full of vigilance, staring at the door, as if he could see everything outside the door through that door.

At this moment, there were still two hours before the next file load, which meant that if he encountered danger now, he would not be able to use the file load function to escape.

He could only rely on his own reaction and courage to deal with the situation in front of him.

Lin Luo took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down, but his heartbeat was still as rapid as a drumbeat.

He took careful steps, trying not to make any noise.

Every step seemed so heavy, as if carrying the weight of the whole world. Lin Luo tiptoed to the door of the room, and there was only a thin door between him and "Village Chief Li".

The distance between them was so close that it seemed that they could touch each other with their hands.

"Dong Dong Dong~" A knock on the door broke the silence, like a heavy hammer hitting Lin Luo's heart.

His nerves were instantly tense, and a layer of imperceptible sweat appeared on his forehead.

"Dear guests, are you asleep?" Village Chief Li's voice sounded again, with a hint of temptation and doubt. Lin Luo's face became extremely solemn. He knew that every moment in the future could determine life and death.

Without the backup of the file reload, Lin Luo felt unprecedented pressure.

If he was killed by a trick at this moment, he would be in a desperate situation with no chance of survival.

He bit his lips tightly, trying to restrain the fear and tension in his heart, and waited quietly.

"Dong Dong Dong~" This time the knocking sound was more urgent, as if it was carrying an invisible force, hitting the door heavily, and each knock seemed to hit people's hearts, making people feel uneasy and nervous.

Village Chief Li's voice also became a little impatient: "Although you are honored guests, isn't it a bit impolite for an old man like me to wait outside with gifts for so long?"

Lin Luo seemed to be able to clearly feel the other party's impatience, and even seemed to see the anger on the other party's face.

The anger seemed to penetrate through the crack of the door, permeating the air, and filling the whole room with a depressing atmosphere.

With his left hand gently on the door, Lin Luo's eyes were solemn, and his hands were trembling slightly, as if he could feel the strong emotions outside the door. His eyes revealed vigilance and caution, and he secretly speculated about the situation outside the door.

"Dong Dong Dong~"Another knock on the door sounded, this time louder and more urgent than before, as if it was going to break the door.

After a while, Guiyi seemed to think that Lin Luo and others were already asleep, and the surroundings gradually returned to peace.

And Lin Luo's face was also extremely solemn and ugly.

[The door did not vibrate at all, which means that no one knocked on the door at all, that is, the knocking sound was fake! ]

[But they actually heard it, so it was Gui who was imitating! Imitating the knocking sound! ]

With a very solemn face, Lin Luo stared at the door, he seemed to see outside the door, Gui was waiting for him to open the door with a strange smile.

[Fuck, this Gui is really too cunning! ]

After waiting for a while, Lin Luo took two steps forward cautiously and gently put his ear against the door.

He wanted to listen to whether he could hear Guiyi knocking on the doors of other rooms.

But he listened for a long time and didn't hear any sound.

Lin Luo's eyes kept flickering, and his mind was turning rapidly.

[There are two possibilities now! The first is that Gui only "knocked" on their door, and the second is that they can't hear Gui "knock" on the doors of other rooms. ]

No matter which one it is, it is a bad situation for Lin Luo.

Because if it is the first case, it means that Gui is specifically targeting them, that is, they are being targeted by Gui, in which case, the risk of them being killed will be greatly increased.

And if it is the second case, it is even worse, which means that they can't judge Gui's position and actions by sound, and fall into a completely passive situation.

Lin Luo took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.

He knew that in such an extremely dangerous environment, panic would only make things worse. He must keep a clear head and find a way to deal with the crisis at hand.

Lin Luo carefully stepped back two steps and left the distance from the door.
