Volume 1: The Origin of Nightmares Chapter 15: The End of Death (Part II)
I don't know what Secretary Ye is doing on the terrifying and mysterious second floor, and the picture shifts to an old apartment in a remote town in Jiangjin City, where Ding Xiaofan, Shen Xiaolang and Liu Lixue are standing in front of the door of Room 106 on the first floor, and they are hesitating whether to call the police.
It turned out that Ding Xiaofan and the others had been here for five minutes, but no matter how they knocked on the door, there was no response from inside, and they could only faintly hear a girl's crying from inside the house.
But Liu Lixue said that when she received the commission in the morning, a middle-aged man called her. In addition, they asked the residents of the apartment, but everyone said that in fact, 106 has been abandoned for a long time!
"Are you sure you're not mistaken?, does the client really live here?" After learning the news from the eleventh resident that No. 106 was not inhabited at all, Ding Xiaofan couldn't help but ask Liu Lixue.
In the face of Ding Xiaofan's questioning, Liu Lixue looked very irritable, kicked the door of No. 106 suddenly, and roared angrily, "You think I'm you! Besides, I will make a mistake with a business of more than 2,000 yuan!"
Maybe it was Liu Lixue's kick that played a role, and the originally closed door suddenly opened. Seeing this, Ding Xiaofan and the other three said hello and hurriedly walked in. But no sooner had they stepped into the house than the door closed again.
"Why did the door close automatically?" "Probably not, my compass still hasn't responded. Have you seen or heard anything?" "Me too, I didn't hear anything but crying. ”
The dark room seemed to be endless, and the three of them fumbled for a long time but could not find where the crying sound came from. In addition, no matter how far they walked, the girl's crying could always be heard clearly.
I don't know when, the sound in the house stopped. "Who are you! I know, you must be the devil it sent! Go away! You devils are leaving my house quickly!" Suddenly, a thin figure appeared in front of Ding Xiaofan and the others.
Judging from the appearance of the figure, it should be a girl in a white dress, about seventeen or eighteen years old. But what does not match her identity is that the girl is holding a blood-stained kitchen knife in her hand.
"You are all devils, I will die with you!" With a loud shout, the girl suddenly raised the knife in her hand and slashed at Ding Xiaofan and the others. "I'm sorry!" In desperation, Ding Xiaofan had no choice but to temporarily demonize and quickly knock the girl unconscious with a hand knife.
With one hand to hold the fainting girl, Ding Xiaofan used his extraordinary vision when he was demonized to find the switch in the corner of the wall and turned on the light in the house. As the lights were turned on, the whole room suddenly became much brighter.
"Why did she pull up all the curtains? No wonder it was so dark in the room!" said Ding Xiaofan, snatching the kitchen knife from the girl's hand, and at the same time moving it to the sofa in the living room to place it. "Wow!" he snapped his fingers, and the girl woke up.
Slowly opened her eyes, looking at Ding Xiaofan and the others standing in front of her, the girl touched her sore neck, and asked inexplicably, "Am I already dead?"
Hearing this, Ding Xiaofan asked a little confused, "This is your home! Isn't it your boyfriend or your brother who entrusted us to hunt ghosts?"
"What are you talking about!" Hearing Ding Xiaofan's words, the girl was taken aback. I saw that his face shrank into the corner of the sofa with a pale face, and he trembled and said, "I made that commission call, and besides, I am the only one in my family!"
Seeing that the girl in the white dress was emotionally unstable and glanced at each other, Ding Xiaofan and the others decided to conceal the fact that they had received a commission from a middle-aged man and told the apartment residents that the house had long been abandoned.
"Oh, maybe we're mistaken. Excuse me, what's going on in your family?" When the mood of the girl in the white dress improved slightly, Liu Lixue asked tentatively. Faced with Liu Lixue's question, the girl recalled, "This morning, I saw a particularly real hallucination......"
After more than half an hour of communication, Ding Xiaofan and others finally figured out what happened to the whole thing. It turns out that the girl in the white dress is called Yang Xiaoyu, and she is the author of the recent popular horror novel "Mysterious Contract".
In search of inspiration for writing, she searched the internet for an image called a smiling dog. However, after looking at this picture, she began to have nightmares. This morning, she even saw a monster that resembled a smiling dog threatening to kill her in the evening.
"Smiling dog? Is it some kind of supernatural picture? What is so scary about dogs?" As a veritable house dick, Ding Xiaofan can be said to know nothing about online information other than games and love movies.
"You don't even know this?" After that, Liu Lixue looked at Ding Xiaofan incredulously as if she had seen an alien. "By the way, what is this smiling dog?" Obviously, Shen Xiaolang had not heard of the rumors of the smiling dog.
Shaking her head speechlessly, Liu Lixue took out her mobile phone and flipped out a supernatural photo she had collected many years ago from the gallery. "Look, this is the picture of the smiling dog that once caused the bizarre deaths of many people. With that, Liu Lixue handed the mobile phone to the two.
took the phone, Ding Xiaofan and Shen Xiaolang looked at the photos on the phone. In the photo, a husky-like creature is grinning at the camera lens with its teeth bared and showing a strange and terrifying smile.
In addition to that, after zooming in on the photo, they found another detail. That is, in the corner of the photo, a blood-stained human hand was photographed. There are a lot of ghosts on this hand, and it looks like someone is beckoning in some dark room!
"Huh, why do I always feel that the room in the photo is exactly the same as the room we are in!" Carefully staring at the supernatural photos on his phone, Ding Xiaofan said in horror. At this moment, his forehead was covered with cold sweat.
Finding that Ding Xiaofan was not lying, everyone present couldn't help but feel a tingling in their scalps. Except, of course, Yang Xiaoyu who was standing in the corner. "It seems that what the residents said is right!" Realizing that something was wrong, Shen Xiaolang hurriedly pulled out the yin and yang umbrella behind him.
As soon as the words fell, Shen Xiaolang threw the parasol into the air, and at the same time drew a spell out of thin air and hit the open parachute. "Zheng!" made a crisp resonant sound, and the parasols floating in mid-air bloomed with dazzling golden light, sprinkling the entire room.
"I didn't expect it to be discovered by you!" Under the illumination of the Yin Yang Umbrella, Yang Xiaoyu was forced to change back to his original form, a monster that looked like a husky. Just like in the supernatural photo, it opened its bloody mouth and smiled horribly.
Not only that, but although it has two dog legs on its lower body, its upper limbs are human arms. The arms are also similar to the photos, bloody and look unusually oozing. "You really have a problem!" As he spoke, Shen Xiaolang used all his magic weapons, ready to do it at any time.
But before Shen Xiaolang could recite the spell to activate the magic weapon, Yang Xiaoyu, the so-called smiling dog, took the lead and quickly launched an attack on it. I could only hear a "poof!", and a bewitching "Blood Rose" bloomed in the air.
"Bang da! bang da!" The bright red blood kept dripping on the rotten wooden floor, but Shen Xiaolang, who was so frightened that his face turned pale, was not injured. "If you want to kill someone, you have to go faster!" Ding Xiaofan licked the blood stains on his fingertips.
"You're really powerful, but do you think you'll be able to kill me like this? Hehehehe, hahaha!"
Seeing this, Ding Xiaofan, who had become a demon, said disdainfully, "Soul Cutting Knife? You used this knife to kill Yang Xiaoyu and her brother! However, this thing has no effect on me! You know, I have no soul!"
Hearing Ding Xiaofan's words, a surprised expression suddenly appeared on the faces of Shen Xiaolang and Liu Lixue, who had hid aside in order not to be injured by mistake. Even the smiling dog himself was surprised and said, "This matter has been so many years, how did you know?"
"Because when I enlarged the supernatural picture in Liu Lixue's mobile phone, I accidentally found the smiling dog, that is, there is a photo on the coffee table behind you. And that photo is a photo of Yang Xiaoyu when she was a child, with a boy who is about her age. ”
Chong smiled at the smiling dog in front of him in a pistol posture, Ding Xiaofan continued, "As for why I knew that they were killed by you, it was also because of the supernatural picture in Liu Lixue's mobile phone!"
After explaining, Ding Xiaofan's outstretched index finger, which was used to compare the posture of a pistol, automatically dislocated with a click, and was tightly attached to the back of his hand. At the same time, he sneered with a dislocated finger and turned into an afterimage, and instantly circled the back of the smiling dog.
"You took that supernatural picture and posted it on the Internet! The purpose is to let the weak-willed person commit suicide due to insanity after seeing this cursed picture, and then you can take the opportunity to devour the soul of the deceased left at the scene, right?"
"But next time, be careful, and at least don't leave any clues before you take a picture. For example, the corpse of Yang Xiaoyu in the photo. Of course, if there is a next time!" As he whispered in his ear, Ding Xiaofan violently twisted the smiling dog's head.
The head that had been turned one hundred and eighty degrees was facing Ding Xiaofan, it still maintained a weird smile, and said, "No wonder you said that kind of thing at that time.... But one thing you said was wrong, in fact, I only killed one person. ”
With that last sentence, the smiling dog fell to the ground, turning into two charred corpses. One of them resembles the remains of a dog, while the other is a humanoid corpse. Strangely, another charred corpse had a strange smile on its face.
"I see, it's a sad story. Looking at the corpse lying on the ground, Ding Xiaofan sighed deeply, changed back into his human form, and beckoned Shen Xiaolang and Liu Lixue to leave room 106.
After Ding Xiaofan and the others left, a middle-aged man appeared in the center of the room as the kitchen knife that fell next to the two corpses flashed with a cyan light. Looking at the figure of Ding Xiaofan and the others leaving, the middle-aged man smiled and said, "Thank you for saving me." ”
Immediately afterwards, two lines of blood and tears flowed from the eyes of the middle-aged man who gradually became transparent, and he whispered to the two corpses on the ground, "I'm sorry." However, just as he turned translucent, a young girl in a white business uniform walked up to him.
"Are you here to take me away?" the middle-aged man asked blankly when he discovered the existence of the girl in white. "Don't talk nonsense, just follow me!" With that, the girl in white waved her hand, and a black chain quickly put on the middle-aged man's neck.
Caught in a chain specially designed to hook the soul, the middle-aged man suddenly lost consciousness. Just let the girl in white drag her, walking towards an ethereal passage full of death and invisible to human flesh.
"This thing of the dead crow is really useful, no wonder the boss always asked him to catch the ghost before!" As he spoke, the ghosts of the girl in white and the middle-aged man disappeared along with the passage that appeared out of thin air. But at the same time, there was a sudden burst of laughter in the room.
The smiling dog incident was over, and Ding Xiaofan and the others, who left room 106, came to a local restaurant on the periphery of the happy community. "You mean, we did it for nothing this time?" After ordering, Liu Lixue asked a little unwillingly.
Hearing this, Ding Xiaofan rubbed his red and swollen left index finger and said, "Didn't I explain it? The one who called you was just a wisp of soul, in fact, he himself died twenty years ago. Let's open a little bit and see if there's any business in the evening. ”
After eating a cheap lunch, the penniless three reluctantly returned to Ding Xiaofan's home, ready to rest for an afternoon, and go out to try their luck in the evening to make some money.
On this side, Ding Xiaofan and the others who fell asleep will not mention it for the time being. As the time was delayed, the picture shifted to the reception hall of Jinhua Company a few hours later. At this time, in the entire Jinhua company, only Secretary Ye and a middle-aged man wearing a robe were left.
"You guys are a standard murderous house here! With such a gust of wind, isn't it cold for Miss Ye to wear so little?" With that, the middle-aged man smiled lewdly and stretched out his fat hand and pinched it on Secretary Ye's smooth thigh.
Faced with the middle-aged man's obscene and dirty movements, Secretary Ye quietly removed his hand from his lap, and said with a smile, "Master Chen said that he laughed, how can there be an auspicious place in this world now?" Okay, Master, please start exorcizing evil spirits, I'll be with you first." ”
With that, Secretary Ye turned around and walked in the direction of the second floor. "I'll go to the second floor to sort out the documents, you must be careful when you are alone here!" Climbing up the stairs leading to the second floor, Secretary Ye suddenly turned around and instructed.
"It's really inexplicable!" When Secretary Ye's figure disappeared from sight, Master Chen scolded and wandered around the reception hall alone. "Huh, why is it so cold here?" he felt a chill as he walked around.
Being blown by the cold wind like this, Master Chen couldn't help but shiver. "What the hell is going on in this hellish place! It's hot and cold, so that Lao Tzu is about to pee when he just came!" Subconsciously pulled his collar, and he hurried to the toilet.
"Boss Li, Boss Li, others say how shrewd you are, I think you are also a stupid fork. It's only half past five, and even if there are ghosts, they won't come out until the evening!
Standing in front of the urinal, Master Chen said to himself while urinating. "Whoa!" Not long after, Master Chen, who had put on his pants, came to the pool to wash his hands, and by the way, he looked in the mirror and tidied up the expensive new Taoist robe on his body.
"Well, it's time to get out and do business. Looking at himself neatly dressed in the mirror with satisfaction, Master Chen prepared to leave the toilet. But at the moment when he turned around, the Master Chen in the mirror turned around again, staring at Master Chen outside the mirror viciously.
"Chen Tianming...." As soon as he walked to the door, Master Chen suddenly heard a familiar voice calling out his name. "Who! who is calling me?" Turning around, Master Chen asked curiously.
Seeing that no one responded, Master Chen continued to walk out the door disapprehantly. But before he had gone a few steps, he stopped abruptly. Because he remembers very clearly, he is obviously the only one on the first floor at this moment, since this is the case, then who called him just now?
Don't scare yourself, there are so many ghosts in the world, you must have heard it wrong just now! With a fluke mentality, Master Chen turned his head again and looked in the direction of the toilet. "Wow!" It's okay not to look at it, this time, Master Chen was almost scared to death.
I saw that a "figure" with blurred flesh and blood actually crawled out of the mirror. That figure looked almost exactly the same as Master Chen, the only difference was that Master Chen who crawled out of the mirror seemed to have been strangled by a meat grinder, covered in blood!
"Chen Tianming, I died so miserably! You died so miserably! Hehehehe, hahaha!" The blood-red "figure" grinned wildly and laughed wildly, and at the same time landed on all fours, slowly crawling towards Master Chen, who was so frightened that he fell to the ground.
"Don't come here, come here again, be careful that this way destroys you! Go away, go away! Help!" Master Chen, who couldn't stand still because his legs were weak, had no choice but to take out a peachwood sword he bought online and hide in the corner and wave it indiscriminately.
"Wow! Taishang Laojun is as anxious as a law! Amitabha, Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable!" Seeing that the peachwood sword was useless, and seeing the blood-red figure getting closer and closer to him, in a hurry, Master Chen hurriedly took out a demon bell from his pocket and shook it desperately.
However, no matter how powerful the magic weapon is, it is still a waste in the hands of people who do not have the slightest cultivation. What's more, these magic weapons of Master Chen were originally fakes. "I'm dying so miserably!" Soon, the blood-colored figure crawled in front of Master Chen, who was stunned to the ground.
