Chapter 122: The Unknown World
Zhao Nan didn't squeak, but he didn't get up either.
"If there's anything up there, we'll come down the stairs at any moment, and there's no door or anything there, so it's useless for us to hide here. Now, if we don't help Master Meng and them, there will be no one to help us when we are in danger. Liu Ruifeng persuaded Zhao Nan.
"Don't you think the sound upstairs is a little weird? It's only one floor apart, why does it sound so vague?" Zhao Nan looked worried.
"Maybe there's a room upstairs, right? they're lying in the room with injuries?" Liu Ruifeng speculated.
"Let's ......" Zhao Nan hesitated, it really didn't feel good to run away at this time, but if you go upstairs, what if the danger upstairs hasn't been lifted?
"Xiao Nan, last night, we misunderstood them, it was they who came back from outside and saved our lives, you had nightmares at night, Miss Lin also gave you a piece of talisman paper, they are not bad people. I think we can trust the two of them here, if we give up on them this time, and if we have an accident next time, no one will really be able to save us. Liu Ruifeng persuaded Zhao Nan a few more words.
"Okay then, but you have to be careful, and if you see something wrong, get down here and we'll get out of here together. Under Liu Ruifeng's repeated persuasion, Zhao Nan finally agreed to go upstairs with him to have a look. If something really happened to Meng Jian and Lin Jing, Zhao Nan wouldn't know who else to rely on after that.
As for her boyfriend Liu Ruifeng...... Zhao Nan didn't think he could protect her in the face of those ghosts, and she didn't want him to be harmed.
Liu Ruifeng took two more candles from the coffee table, lit them and handed one to Zhao Nan, took one himself, and then he held the candle in one hand and Zhao Nan with the other, and walked cautiously to the side of the stairs, and after standing up, he shouted to the stairs: "Master Meng! Miss Lin, are you on it?"
All that was responded was a groan of pain~ groan.
Liu Ruifeng looked back at Zhao Nan, hesitated for a moment and then stopped: "Xiao Nan, why don't you stay here first, I'll go up and take a look, I'll tell you in time if there's any situation." ”
"No, I'll go up with you. Zhao Nan replied to Liu Ruifeng. It seems a bit selfish not to follow at this time.
"In case of any situation above, I can escape alone, and if you follow me, it will not be so convenient for me to take care of you. Liu Ruifeng thought about it and talked to Zhao Nan again.
"That'...... You must be careful! If you see that the situation is not right, hurry down. If something happens to you, who else can I rely on here?" Zhao Nan explained to Liu Ruifeng, feeling a little bad in his heart.
"I will. Liu Ruifeng answered, and was about to go upstairs, but was stopped by Zhao Nan reaching out.
Liu Ruifeng was about to ask Zhao Nan if he had anything else to say, but Zhao Nan stood on tiptoe and hugged his head and kissed him on the lips.
Liu Ruifeng's mind was a little cloudy for a while, he and Zhao Nan had not been together for a long time, although the relationship between boyfriend and girlfriend was determined, but because Zhao Nan was more conservative and strong, the two had only held hands and hugged before, and the kiss was the first time.
"Promise me that we will get out of here alive, and when we go back, we will have a wedding, and I will have two children for you, and then I will grow old with you. Zhao Nan held Liu Ruifeng's face and said to her.
"Yes, we'll get out of here alive. Liu Ruifeng squeezed Zhao Nan's hand tightly and said to her.
"I love you. ”
"I love you too. Liu Ruifeng and Zhao Nan talked again, then let go of her hand, took the candle and walked to the top of the stairs step by step.
After walking through the corner of the stairs, Liu Ruifeng's figure disappeared from Zhao Nan's field of vision, and at a certain moment, an inexplicable chill hit Zhao Nan's heart, and she shouted to the top several times: "Doctor Liu! Ruifeng! Are you still there?"
"I'm ...... Xiao Nan, don't come up!" Liu Ruifeng replied to Zhao Nan.
"What's going on up there?" Zhao Nan asked Liu Ruifeng.
Liu Ruifeng didn't answer Zhao Nan's question again, and the surroundings became extremely quiet.
"Ruifeng!Ruifeng!Why don't you speak?" Zhao Nan couldn't help but be very anxious, and shouted to the top.
Liu Ruifeng still didn't respond, as if he had suddenly disappeared.
"Ruifeng, don't scare me!What's going on up there?" Zhao Nan rushed up the stairs, but suddenly remembered the last words that Liu Ruifeng said to her just now...... Xiao Nan, don't come up...... Her body trembled inexplicably, both legs went limp, and she fell down the stairs without paying attention.
Zhao Nan tried to reach out and grab something, but his head hit the handrail of the stairs hard, and then the whole person fell to the bottom of the stairs and was unconscious.
……
I don't know how long it took, Zhao Nan woke up and turned around, it was dark all around, she felt that her forehead was extremely painful, but the whole person finally came to her senses.
It's cold.
It's all frozen.
"Doctor Liu, Ruifeng, Master Meng, Sister Lin!" Zhao Nan shouted helplessly.
There was no response in the dark.
"What the hell is wrong with all of you, what's on the second floor!?" Zhao Nan shouted, but in the empty house, there was only her own shouting.
Zhao Nan tried to calm himself down, and then thought about it in his mind......
There must have been something on the second floor, and the 'bang!' sound coming from the ceiling was made by that thing. Then Meng Jian and Lin Jing rushed up and fought with it, making a loud noise on the ceiling, and then the sound stopped, and there was a faint cry for help.
If Meng Jian and Lin Jing had won the fight, they would have come down to the first floor to join her and Liu Ruifeng, and if they had lost, the thing would have rushed down to attack her and Liu Ruifeng. But the result was that they didn't come down, and the thing didn't come down either, Liu Ruifeng went up to see the situation, and there was no sound after just saying a word.
Could it be that there was some restriction on that thing, and it was impossible to go down to the first floor, so the person who hid on the second floor and specifically attacked it? If this is the case, Zhao Nan's most correct choice at this time should be to leave this house and go outside in the dark to find a way to go to the village chief's house and ask for help from the village chief she distrusts the most.
But......
If something happens to Liu Ruifeng, Zhao Nan doesn't know what the point is for her to support it any longer, or if Liu Ruifeng also has an accident, she simply doesn't have the courage to support herself in this weird, cold, and terrifying place.
"No matter what's on the second floor, I don't know what is killing you, I have to be strong! Find out the truth behind this qiē!" Zhao Nan gritted her teeth and stood up, she tried to remember the layout of the room, staggered to the sand edge of the hall, touched the lighter and candle left by Meng Jian on the coffee table, and lit the candle with a trembling hand.
In the faint candlelight, Zhao Nan's huge projection shook on the wall behind him, and there was no difference between the hall on the first floor and when the four people came in, the only difference was ...... Originally, four people came in, but now only Zhao Nan was left here.
The footsteps on the second floor attracted Meng Wei and Lin Jing up, and then they never came back. Then Liu Ruifeng went up with the candle, but he only had time to say to her, 'Don't come up', and then there was no more sound.
On the second floor, what was there to be terrible? What was the reason why the three of them went up and didn't come back? What made Liu Ruifeng lose his voice after only having time to say a word to her?
Zhao Nan took the lit candle, looked around in the hall on the first floor, and finally found a kitchen knife as a weapon in the kitchen, and then she took the wax in one hand and the kitchen knife in the other, walked to the side of the stairs step by step, and then walked up to the top of the stairs step by step.
Although there are only a dozen steps in this staircase, Zhao Nan seems to have walked for a long time, and every time she walks up a step, the fear in her heart increases by a point. Most of the human fear comes from the unknown, and only the unknown is the most terrifying.
But fear is also one of the sources of human exploration of the unknown world, and only by exploring the truth can we overcome fear and make our souls stronger.
The stairs finally came to an end.
In the flickering candlelight, Zhao Nan saw clearly the first qiē on the second floor.
Blood, all blood.
The ground was covered in blood and a mess of footprints. There are also splatters of blood on the walls, making it feel like you're in a slaughterhouse or hell or something.
The blood on the ground was sticky, and some even stuck to the soles of shoes.
"Ruifeng...... Ruifeng ......" Zhao Nan shouted softly, and his feelings were out of control in an instant, and he was about to cry.
I don't know where the courage came from, maybe he was extremely confused about what happened here, Zhao Nan began to search the second floor......
While searching, Zhao Nan still kept calling out the names of the three people, but none of them responded.
There was a trail of blood on the floor, and it looked like someone had moved the corpse or something to another place...... Zhao Nan followed the bloodstain to the door of a room on the second floor.
The door was closed, and Zhao Nan could clearly see several bloody handprints on the door by candlelight, and there was also blood on the doorknob.
"Is there anyone?" Zhao Nan stood by the door and tried to ask inside.
There was no response.
"Is there anyone?" Zhao Nan knocked on the door and asked inside.
Still no response.
At a certain moment, Zhao Nan's body shuddered, and she even had some doubts about how she could have such courage, came to the second floor, and stood in front of this room full of bloody handprints, knocked on the door and asked inside.
Get out of the way...... Looks like it's still too late......
No, we have to figure out what's going on. rs
