I am a demonic cultivator, not a capitalist with a conscience.

Chapter 231 No Way Out (66)

Everything was pitch black, just like Miao Qingyu's dark mood.

She felt her body go numb, and her mind felt like a television without a signal, filled with static and noise.

What is this?!

That's too dark!
As the initial terror gradually dissipated, another kind of belated fear washed over her like a tide, making her think of something:
I was just talking to a madman?
Apart from being quite tall, the other person did not show any abnormalities throughout the entire process and was just a normal person.

The other person was even a little shy, and their eyes looked somewhat sinister at first glance, but after spending time with them, she could feel some gentleness, which made her unable to believe that the other person was really a madman.

The viewers in the live stream didn't believe it either.

After the initial shock, the viewers in the live stream felt as if they had died once, and only slowly came to their senses afterward.
[Lord of the Underworld, why don't you take that madman away?]

"Don't say anything. For a moment just now, I forgot about the existence of the Yellow Springs Star Lord."

My head is still buzzing.

Who can understand the fear I felt the moment I saw the face fall to the ground?

My roommate asked me why I was watching a live stream on the ceiling.

I'm not afraid of ghosts, after all, ghosts are all transformed humans. But what is this thing transformed from?!

Let's analyze the plot.

[What's there to analyze? Let's run!]

[Luckily, you're in live stream mode. If it were dream mode, you'd be scared half to death.]

[Agreed. So, Qingyu, why don't you switch to Dream Mode? We want to experience it more immersively.]

"Let's go play with eggs!"

With a sigh of relief, Miao Qingyu felt that it was better to be killed.

The reporter role is really too scary. Maybe it'll be better to switch roles.

I wonder if there's an ant girl this time. If there is, then we can try continuing the dream from the little ant, which might make things easier.

But to Miao Qingyu's surprise, she did not die.

When she woke up, she found herself strapped to a dentist's chair.

Two plastic mannequins were placed in front of her in the shop windows, and dozens of paper figures sat densely on the chairs behind them. All the talking toys used to soothe the patient were turned on, and noisy music kept playing, even managing to spell out a song called "Good Day".

The tall "Dr. Jin" was dressed in a red groom's suit. He kept raising his hand to the air in a salute, and every now and then he would pick up a brush and write down the other person's name, as if there were really guests coming to visit.

The light bulb was covered by a blood-red white coat, and a chilling red light shone through it, shrouding the place in a blood-red hue.

Faced with this situation, Miao Qingyu dared not move at all.

Can't move either.

The other party had tied him up extremely tightly, and he could barely move, let alone break free.

She could only watch as "Dr. Kim" kept inviting guests and pouring them drinks and cigarettes.

If this scene were at a wedding, then Dr. Kim's performance would undoubtedly be perfectly normal, and even particularly outstanding.

But now, in an unknown part of the hospital, the other person's actions created a strong sense of dissonance with the surrounding environment, giving her a feeling of reality and illusion intertwined.

A dozen minutes later, the music stopped abruptly, and "Dr. Kim" straightened up.

He walked up to Miao Qingyu and said to her, "Miao Qingyu, we've been through many years together, witnessing each other's many firsts. And today, this is our most important first. I'm asking you this seriously: will you become my mother?" [Wait, what?]

[Isn't she the bride?]

[Let me catch my breath... An important option has appeared! What does it mean when options pop up at this time?]

[I think choosing "yes" will make the other person furious.]

[No, I think. The other party is a madman. Nothing is surprising when a madman does something.]

Looking at the still-twitching "Dr. Jin" face, and then at the opinions in the live stream, Miao Qingyu swallowed hard and decisively chose "no".

"Damn it! I'd rather die than be the mother of a lunatic like you!"

"Is that so... I'm sorry."

After saying that, "Dr. Jin" raised his kitchen knife.

Just when Miao Qingyu thought she was really going to die, she found that the belt on her body had been cut open, and Dr. Jin removed all the restraints from her body and handed her a cell phone.

"Since you don't want to be my mother, then you should leave. It's not safe here, so be careful."

After creating some distance between them, Miao Qingyu noticed that the other person wasn't chasing after her, but was just looking forlornly at the mannequin in the shop window, lost in thought.

As if possessed, she looked at the other person and asked, "Aren't you leaving?"

“I’m not leaving. I’m a shameful child. I shouldn’t have gone out. My mother doesn’t want me anymore, so I’ll just be locked up in the house.”

Miao Qingyu glanced at the other person again, then decisively rushed outside.

The interior of the mental hospital is much larger and darker than the outside.

In order to determine the direction of travel, Miao Qingyu took out her phone, turned on the flashlight, and was finally able to see the road ahead.

This should be Dr. Kim's home.

Contrary to his imposing appearance, Dr. Kim's home looks like a little boy's secret hideout.

Here are broken deformed puppets, wooden swords, spears, and clubs, and a few missing comic books.

In addition, there is a broken doll that is solemnly placed on the most beautiful chair. It is wearing an old floral dress and the word "Mom" is written on its face, which has no facial features.

Although she sensed there must be many stories here, Miao Qingyu really didn't have any extra energy.

Her recent experience filled her with fear of this place, and her constantly depleting phone battery also filled her with anxiety.

Every two seconds, the phone's battery level drops by one percent, and the battery only lasts for a little over three minutes. This made Miao Qingyu want to curse the person who designed the phone.

Would it kill you to make a high-capacity phone?

Will I die?!
Overwhelmed by various anxieties, she had no time to pay attention to her surroundings. All she wanted to do was leave this place as quickly as possible, return to the ground, and get into the driver's car to go home.

She had just found the stairs and was about to step up when something emerged from the darkness, grabbed her leg, and pulled her deeper into the darkness.

"Found you, a top-quality piglet. I was so sorry to see you being captured by 'Dr. Kim.' I'm so glad you came!"

Clutching her phone tightly, Miao Qingyu used its light to look over and discovered that she was being held by an extremely terrifying monster.

The other party was not a human at all, but a large ant, whose chewing mouthparts were constantly dripping acid, and the ant's face showed an extremely greedy expression.

Turning its head, the ant swayed its antennae and said to Miao Qingyu, "Welcome to my ranch, my little pig."
