When she pushed open the door of the autopsy room, mannequin corpses were splashed with artificial blood and thrown into the room. The corpses lying on the floor reminded Yun Qin of the Eighteen Levels of Hell that she was lucky enough to see.

Even at that time, as an evil spirit, she was so disgusted that she almost wanted to vomit.

In the dusty cabinet, there were specimens soaked in formalin. Deformed babies, diseased hearts, bulging eyes, broken limbs, and so on.

A little further in, there was a white cloth hanging on the roof. Some of the white cloth was covered with large amounts of blood as if it was a murder scene.

On the operating table under the white cloth, there were some lifelike organs and broken mannequin heads.

These mannequin heads were very lifelike. When Yun Qin picked them up, the eyeballs of the mannequin heads moved along with the person who took them. It was very bizarre.

The decoration and details of this haunted house were very precise. It was very much like a real haunted hospital where many people have died. This kind of cold and strange place was also the favorite for ghosts. No wonder it attracted ghosts.

Walking into the inner room, Yun Qin saw a narrow staircase behind the neatly arranged operating table.

Going up the stairs was the second floor of the haunted house. When Yun Qin came up, she saw the greedy ghost squatting in front of a nurse mannequin, carefully sniffing it.

Was this the dummy on the first floor that could “run”?

When Yun Qin moved closer, the greedy ghost jumped back into Yun Qin’s arms again, only sticking out his head to look at Yun Qin.

“Is this the same smell as the dried female corpse you smelled?” Yun Qin asked casually as she flipped the mannequin.

Unexpectedly, the greedy ghost nodded and confirmed Yun Qin’s words.

This time, it was Yun Qin’s turn to be stunned. She didn’t expect that the ghost in this haunted house would appear again right under her nose.

And this mannequin nurse who inexplicably moved a few minutes ago also had some lingering evil energy on her body.

Other than a whisp of energy from a hidden ghost, the rest were all little ghosts that liked to possess dead things and had no physical appearance: zombie worms.

The name zombie worm came from the state it was in when it did not possess something. It was usually a long, thin, sticky substance that moved slowly like a mollusk. That was why it was called a zombie worm.

After a zombie worm found something to possess, it would become extremely flexible, as if it had injected a soul into a dead thing. It was a type of ghost that was neither good nor evil.

It seemed that the zombie worm had once possessed that female corpse in the iron cabinet, and then transferred to the mannequin nurse on the first floor.

However, a zombie worm’s intelligence was very low. What was its intention?

Thinking of the large amounts of zombie worm evil energy and the energy of a hidden ghost on this dummy, Yun Qin seemed to understand something.

So this was a ghost group attack.

Thinking of the characteristics of zombie worms, Yun Qin suddenly had an idea.

She quickly returned to the entrance of the first floor, but she didn’t go out. Instead, she found that large bag of half-solid dog blood on the ground.

When a zombie worm moved without possessing an object, the traces it left behind would quickly turn black after being in contact with blood. This was Yun Qin’s plan.

She rubbed the bag containing black dog blood and then splashed the content on the corridor. Sure enough, a black trail immediately appeared in the dark red blood on the ground.

Although it was not very obvious, Yun Qin was still able to recognize it.

The zombie worm’s trail was coming towards Yun Qin. Just as Yun Qin entered the hospital ward to check, it brushed past Yun Qin in the ward. Then, the zombie worm ran all the way to the mannequins, possessed a mannequin, and started to run.

No wonder the zombie worm appeared again in the areas that Yun Qin already searched.

Following the zombie worm’s traces, Yun Qin walked to a wall.

Seeing that the black patterns disappear into the wall, Yun Qin tentatively pushed the wall. She did not expect that a secret door opened.

It seemed that this was a small room that the haunted house staff usually hid in to scare tourists.

Once she entered the small room, Yun Qin felt some obvious malevolent energy gathering. It was the zombie worm energy that she guessed.

Yun Qin quickly gathered her evil energy and smashed it in a few different directions. Two translucent yellow worms that were slowly wriggling appeared. They definitely match the name “zombie worm”.. A ghost mask also rushed out from the pile of props and quickly rushed towards the open secret door.
