Chapter 44:
Fuck!
When Chinese people encounter something too surprising or horrifying, their instinctive reaction is to say these two words. Nothing to do with quality, nothing to do with education, just instinct. After saying this, Zhang Doubi took a deep breath, and the sufficient oxygen was drawn into the lungs along the nasal cavity, which gradually stabilized the heart that had been throbbing up and down due to fright.
However, it was just such a deep breath that excited the old man in red.
Zhang Doubi was so frightened at such an urgent juncture, he subconsciously held his breath, opened his eyes like this, and looked at the red-clothed old man in front of him. The old man in red seemed to have lost his goal, staring blankly ahead, staring at Zhang Doubi's position.
Dark pupils stare at you like this, drop by drop of blood flowing down his jaw line like this.
"Tick tick", in this silent space, drop by drop dripped to the ground along the window. Before long, there was a pool of blood on the ground.
Zhang Doubi watched the old man stuck in the window, struggling hard, trying to get out of the window, but he seemed to have lost the ability to pass through the window. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't get out of the window. The old man in red slowly raised his arms, trying to knock on the window to get his head out of the window.
But because of the different force points, the old man in red waved his hands for a long time, and he couldn't break the window with his elbows or fists. Zhang Doubi couldn't bear it, he took a slow breath.
The old man in red didn't pay attention, his hand passed through the window like this, and the withered, dead black hand stretched out in front of Chao Su. However, just as the old man in red made further moves, Zhang Doubi held his breath again.
No advance or retreat.
One hand and one head of the old man in red passed through the window and came indoors. But there is still a part of the torso that stays outside. At the moment when Zhang Doubi held his breath, the old man in red seemed to have lost his goal. He stared blankly ahead and began to struggle.
As soon as Zhang Doubi took a breath, the old man in red would stretch into some parts.
Sometimes it’s the fingers, sometimes it’s the neck…
Zhang Doubi had a great time, as soon as he took a breath, the old man in red became a ghost and could move freely. As soon as he held his breath, the old man in red became a normal person, without any ability. After playing several times, Zhang Doubi finally gave up.
The old man in red has collapsed. The front half of his body is inside the house and the lower body is outside. Now, his whole person is standing there across the window in an immobile posture.
"What now?"
Zhang Doubi gestured toward Su with his eyes and asked.
"What can I do?" Chao Su replied with his eyes. Her eyes fell on the old man in red. Once they breathe and make some big movements, the old man in red will turn into a ghost, penetrate the window, and come to them. But if they don't breathe or stand in the same place for a long time, the old man in red is a "human", so there will be no great lethality.
But it's simply impossible not to breathe or stand in place for long periods of time.
And if you want to escape, you must move. The old man in red will turn into a ghost, find them and hunt them down.
Things came to an impasse.
Zhao Su's gaze fell on the red-clothed old man, watching his face turn red at this moment, and the whole person kept rolling his eyes upwards. Under such a long period of suffocation, the old people struggled more and more slowly.
This is just the beginning.
Chao Su and Zhang Doubi need to breathe after all. Therefore, every breath, let the old man in red get a breath in the cracks. However, this breath was only a temporary pause after all, and in less than a second, it felt suffocated again.
Torment!
This is inhuman torture!
Later, the old man in red was suffocated in the glass window.
Seeing that the old man in red remained silent for a long time, Chao Su and Zhang Doubi looked at each other. In the spirit of "lady first", Zhang Doubi motioned to Chao Su to come and take a look.
Chao Su is not uncommon to let a high school student stand in front of him. Therefore, after understanding Zhang Doubi's expression, Zhao Su took a cautious step forward, her eyes fixed on the red-clothed old man.
The old man in red remained motionless.
Zhao Su held his breath, getting closer and closer to the old man, so close that he could clearly see the ravines all over the old man's face. The old man showed a stiff posture, the whites of his eyes were upward, and he could not see any vitality.
"Dead." As soon as Chao Su's voice fell, the next moment, she saw Zhang Doubi take out a small knife from her clothes and cut it without hesitation in this red On the body of the old man. The blade of this knife is sharp and it is cut. When the tip of the knife fell on the neck of the old man in red, the skin burst open at that moment. At the same time, revealing the dim bones inside. The grains of flesh and blood are like water, falling on the ground little by little.
"This is a complete death." Zhang Doubi picked up the old man's blood-red sleeve and wiped the blade of his own knife. Then he put the knife in the face of Chao Su. in your own pocket.
"Let's go." Zhang Doubi said. A strong smell of blood diffused in this room, "The old man in red should not have gone far, and went around under the window to exercise again. Within this distance, he can feel our breathing and movements, so He just turned his head and looked at us."
"Next, let's be careful. Maybe, in our blind spot, there will be people in red watching us."
Zhao Su pulled the clothes on the old man in red, which was stained with stench of flesh and blood, as if it had been rotting for a long time: "Do you think this red dress was made by the card maker? ?"
Zhang Doubi stopped his neat steps, turned around and came to stand beside Chao Su. Under Chaosu's gaze, he grinned and said:
"This is not the first time to kill a ghost, I forgot about it. Chao Su: "This is the first time to kill a ghost, haven't you killed other ghosts in red before? "
Zhang Doubi: "No. If we knew that we could kill ghosts just like that, we would have done it already."
As Zhang Doubi spoke, he looked down at the corpse of the old man in red. He observed it carefully for a while, just when Chao Su thought he would observe something, the next second, he shook his head in front of Chao Su:
"No, it's not certain. I'll use the physical talent to calculate."
Chao Su remembered that Zhang Doubi's physical talent was similar to that of a pen fairy.
But Chao Su didn't know that Zhang Doubi's physical talent was actually a pen fairy.
When a pen appeared in front of Chao Su, every time it stayed in the air, blood would drip from the tip of the pen, and occasionally there would be strands of black hair growing in the blood. Slowly, among those black hair, a pale human head appeared.
The head is in a closed-eye position, and the long eyelashes hang down slightly, covered with blood. Her mouth was pale, and there was no trace of blood.
This is the pen fairy called out by Zhang Doubi's physique talent.
"Bixian Bixian, you are my past life, and I am your present life. If you want to come, draw a circle on the paper... er, on the ground."
The eyelashes of the head fluttered up and down, and the pen fell from the air to the ground. The tip of the pen was stained with blood, and it drew a circle on the ground. After the red circle appeared, Zhang Doubi continued:
"May I ask you a question?"
The pen rolled on the ground in a circle, and the hard metal shell collided with the ground, making a "cluck clack" sound. This is in agreement with Zhang Doubi's question.
Zhang Doubi picked up the pen at his feet, and after writing big "yes" and "no" on the ground, turned to look at Chao Su and said, "Before I ask questions Close your eyes when you are, or you will be in danger."
"Okay." After confirming that there was no danger, Chao Su closed his eyes. Then, she heard Zhang Doubi's voice ringing in the empty room.
"Can I ask you a question?"
The sharp sound of the pen rubs against the ground, making a harsh sound. After the sound stopped for three or four seconds, Chao Su opened his eyes and saw that Zhang Doubi's hands were covered with blood—not from his body, but from the fountain pen.
Glancing at Su, where the tip of the pen rested - "Yes".
Bixian allows Zhang Doubi to ask questions.
Chao Su confirmed the head, and after confirming that she was still in a state of closed eyes, she closed her eyes again.
He heard Zhang Doubi's voice ringing in his ears: "Pixian Bixian, I want to ask if this wedding dress was made by the card maker."
After a pause for three or four seconds, Chao Su heard a sudden goosebumps sound. Then the sound stopped.
After confirming safety, he opened his eyes to Su and saw that the direction of the pen fairy was "No". It seems, no.
Zhang Doubi was a little disappointed. After he sent the pen fairy away according to the procedure, he saw the woman's head dissipating in the air with her hair, and then he stood up and used the bed casually. He wiped his hands off the quilt and wiped off the blood stained on it, and then he said to Chao Su:
"Let's go."
Zhao Su responded and made sure that the ID card of the old man in red and the "Book with the Father" were brought to her, and then she walked out. As she walked, she asked Zhang Doubi casually:
"How many do you think others will find?"
Zhang Doubi: "Let's see luck. Today is our luck and we were able to find these two important clues. Although now we have found one of the reasons for the strangeness of Shuangxi Village. Go out and scratch your head."
Zhao Su listened to Zhang Doubi's words and looked forward. The two looked at each other, stopped, and held their breath. In front of them, two old men were talking and walking towards them.
The two old men were wearing red wedding dresses and walked towards Su and Zhang Doubi like this. As they got closer, Chaosu and Zhang Doubi could smell the blood and corpse stench on their bodies.
They walked over slowly, then passed Chaosu and Zhang Doubi. Just when Chao Su and Zhang Doubi were about to relax their vigilance, suddenly, one of the old ladies' baskets suddenly fell from her shoulder.
The vegetable basket was knocked over.
"Clap", after the tomato hits the stone, the juice inside will flow out.
"Ah, something fell." The old lady's old voice sounded behind Chao Su, and Chao Su couldn't look back at all. She could only listen to the old lady walking from behind step by step. The old lady was wearing cloth shoes, and the sound she made when walking on the ground was very light. In addition, her legs were not good, and the old lady walked very slowly.
This feeling is like dancing on the tip of a knife.
Chaosu can feel great psychological pressure. She had even started to think about what she would do if the direction and straight line of the ghost walking behind her was where she was.
In such an anxious atmosphere, Chao Su saw a red cloth shoe stepping on the ground next to her, and then, a red figure was bending over to pick up the one tomato.
It's the old lady.
The old lady picked up the tomato, wiped the dust on it with her sleeve with some distress, and said, "Why is it broken. Why is it broken."
Speaking, she wiped her sleeve again, and the red blood on the sleeve got on the tomato. The old lady looked down and took a bite of the tomato as if she couldn't see it. The fresh juice of the tomatoes was mixed with the blood that had just been stained, and the old lady chewed it and swallowed it into her stomach. Occasionally, blood mixed with juice flowed down the corner of the old lady's mouth.
"A Fang." She called out to the old lady who was still behind, took out a whole tomato from the vegetable basket with her other hand, and handed it to the old lady named A Fang. In hand, "This tomato, fresh. You can try it."
"I'll try it." A Fang took the tomato and began to chew next to Chao Su. The sound of the teeth hitting the tomatoes, the sound of sucking the juice, can be heard clearly by Chao Su.
"Delicious and delicious. Where did you buy those tomatoes?" Fang asked in dialect.
The old lady eating tomatoes reached out and put the last bit of tomatoes into her mouth. After wiping her mouth, she said, "I brought it from the village chief. By the way, Fang, did you feel that someone was near us?"
A Fang stood opposite Chao Su, Chao Su could clearly see A Fang smiling. She lost a few teeth, and the remaining teeth didn't look clean, with a bit of a yellowish tinge. In the teeth and between the teeth, there is also the red color of the tomato skin, which is easy to think of something bad.
"A Cui, you feel right, there is indeed someone by our side." After speaking, A Fang raised her eyes and looked in the direction of Zhang Doubi, "Then there is someone ?"
Zhang Doubi, who was staring at him so gloomily, panicked.
He wasn't even sure if the two old ladies named A Cui and A Fang could see them.
Seeing the old lady named A Fang getting closer and closer, Zhang Doubi felt that her current state was dancing on a tightrope. His physical talent is simply not suitable for a direct confrontation with ghosts. Zhang Doubi shouted wildly in his heart, but in front of the ghosts, he did not dare to make a single movement.
He stood where he was, praying that he would be as lucky as Chao Su.
Just as the two old ladies, A Fang and A Cui, were getting closer and closer to him, suddenly, a figure passed by Zhang Doubi in a little embarrassment. Zhang Doubi was startled and subconsciously wanted to take a deep breath, but finally held back.
He looked up in the direction of the figure, and saw a slightly fat man. Zhang Doubi knew him, this man came to this mirror world three days ago, and his presence was very low. Zhang Doubi remembered that when the other party first came, he had a few words with him, but he only knew that the man was called Shi Qiangsheng, and he had a three- or four-month-old child at home. Zhang Doubi didn't know about the rest. After all, Shi Qiangsheng was too ignorant, giving people the feeling that he was living in his own world.
Later, more and more people came here, and Zhang Doubi never had any dealings with Shi Qiangsheng. Unexpectedly, at this moment, Zhang Doubi would see Shi Qiangsheng again in this way.
Shi Qiangsheng's expression was a little panicked. He obviously just escaped from the side. When he saw the two old ladies in red and blood in front of him, his expression was startled. As soon as the sole of the shoe slips on the ground, it will rush out of the universe.
"Run!"
While talking, Shi Qiangsheng grabbed Chao Su and Zhang Doubi and swept forward. Chao Su hadn't reacted yet, and the next moment, she felt that the surrounding scenery was going crazy backwards in her eyes. In the rush of wind, Chaosu heard Zhang Doubi madly cursing at the person who carried them up:
"Fuck, Shi Qiangsheng, what have you done? Why are so many ghosts chasing you!"
A Fang and A Cui just now, what is it? At this moment, behind them are a large group of ghosts in red.
Hundred Ghosts Night Walk.
This is a real ghost night walk. Shi Qiangsheng gasped and said, "I don't know. I just went to the village committee for a walk. There were more than 30 people in a 60-square-meter room. If I didn't check, I was chased."
Zhang Doubi immediately raised his spirits: "Guan Shaoqing with you?"
Shi Qiangsheng hummed.
Zhang Doubi waited for a while, but did not hear the following, so he could not help but ask again: "What about Guan Shaoqing and the others, where are they now?"
Shi Qiangsheng: "Guan Shaoqing and the others seem to have found a way to create a mirror image now. After sneaking away these ghosts, go take a look."
Zhang Doubi: "Brother, when will you finish sneaking?"
Zhang Doubi tucked up his clothes a little scared, his toes curled up slightly, and buckled the embroidered shoes on his feet to prevent them from falling off when running. A meter away from him, there was an elderly old man, looking at him eagerly, as if he was about to eat his flesh and blood in the next moment.
Thriller, online!
Zhang Doubi grabbed Shi Qiangsheng's arm firmly. Fortunately, Shi Qiangsheng's physical talent was much more powerful than Chaosu and Zhang Doubi imagined. When they left a distance of about ten meters, the three rolled on the spot and rolled in different directions.
Haystacks and crops hit Chao Su in the face like crazy, Chao Su closed his eyes, turned forward with all his strength, and finally stopped at a big tree beside. She held her breath, pricked her ears, and listened to the wind and grass beside her.
When there was no sound, she opened her eyes carefully and looked around with her peripheral vision.
There is no red shadow around, everything is as beautiful as reality.
Zhao Su got up from the ground in embarrassment, flicked the dust and mud on his body, and turned his head to look around. The three of them seemed to have a strong desire to survive, and they rolled in different directions and distances. Anyway, standing up to Su now, I can't see the existence of Zhang Doubi and Shi Qiangsheng.
She walked forward tentatively, but if she saw a little red light, she would immediately retreat. After such a tentative walk for a while, Chao Su gave up. In such a situation - no shouting, no means of communication, no one can be found at all.
Thinking about it for a moment, then gave up.
Instead of this, it is better to continue to search in the village to see if there are any other clues.
Associating with the village committee mentioned by Shi Qiangsheng just now may also be a clue.
But for some reason, Chao Su always felt that Shi Qiangsheng appeared too cleverly, like a carefully arranged plot. After they complete a goal or find a clue, the next person will appear to guide.
Of course, this feeling is just a conjecture of Chao Su. But she instinctively refused to go to the village committee. She thought for a while on the spot, then walked towards the village chief's house.
The door of the village chief's house has been opened, and the elegiac couplets and banners above have been brutally torn down. He stepped over the threshold towards Su and walked in like this. The household appliances of the village head are much more complete than other villagers.
TV, refrigerator, washing machine…
Some of the cabinet doors and drawers have been rummaged by others, and the whole room looks extra messy. Chao Su rummaged through the bedside table and found the village chief's ID card. Zhao Su converted it, and the village chief was probably over one hundred and sixty years old.
Then the book with the Father is largely true.
Most of the people in Shuangxi Village have the magical existence of longevity by eating fresh flesh and blood.
The cane hit the ground with a crisp sound. The village chief did not notice that there was another person in the room, so he walked slowly to the side of the reclining chair and lay down.
One of his hands skillfully pressed the switch on the radio, listening to the voice coming from inside:
"Shuangxi Village is a magical village. Under the eaves of every house, there will be a red lantern. When a friend comes from afar, no matter how many people come, they have to go to their great hall to sit. And when they eat, they are more particular about it. They will light a red candle in front of the guests. I won't be able to eat."
"This time, the story begins with a man named Liu Mingjing."
There was a "pop" sound, as if something slapped on the desk, making a crisp sound. Chao Su blinked and stood there, not daring to move. When she heard this voice, her cheeks, together with her brain, instantly went numb.
She recognized the voice.
This is the voice of the honor guard Xiao Xu who was at the buns and fritters stall.
In the beginning, Chao Su heard the story of the old man in the shroud of Shuangxi Village from him.
Chaosu never thought that after so many days, she would hear the other party's voice again, and she heard it from the radio.
