Chapter 6: The Funeral Song
Gluttonous snakes?
Why is it a gluttonous snake again?
Is someone playing the game? Still is? ……
I tightened my grip on the wrench and pricked up my ears to carefully discern the direction in which the sound was coming from. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
The music of "Didi......Dididi" seems to have been reverberated over the entire community through a loudspeaker.
Beads of sweat oozed from my palms. It's hard to say whether the current music is proof of "the existence of living people" or a mourning song that "urges you to take your life", whether it is time to rush over to "meet in Ao Bao", or turn the dog's head and run away. If you run away, where is the "way out"? If we go through the past, can we get the "truth"? I stood still and struggled, the mineral water being pinched and "snapped".
Suddenly, a shadow seemed to pass through the darkness at the other end of the "J" junction. Even though my eyes were used to the darkness, the street entrance was nearly 100 meters away, and it was still too difficult to see clearly. Now, instead of making up your mind here, it's better to go and explore.
I let out a soft breath and slowly moved towards the intersection.
Suddenly, I felt as if there was someone behind me. I turned abruptly, and there was nothing but endless darkness. I hesitated to turn around, but this strange feeling lingered in my mind.
Just now, I didn't see anyone's whereabouts, although the road was dark and silent, but my heart was not as uneasy as now, and at this time, I always felt that something was following my side, and I felt more and more frightened in my heart, and finally couldn't help but run desperately.
The closer you get to the intersection, the clearer the music of the snake becomes. Studio! The sound is coming from the studio!
Run to the intersection and turn right to the main road to the studio. It is about 100 meters from the studio at this time. In the distance, I saw a faint green glow coming from the glass door, and at the door, there seemed to be a man sitting there, leaning in a strange posture, motionless.
What the heck? I thought silently in my heart, and cold sweat ran down my back. My right hand holding the wrench was already slippery, so I silently released the three fingers behind my index finger, freed my palm, wiped it on my pants, and then held the wrench tightly.
Gotta go over and have a look, right? I asked myself if my feet were moving forward involuntarily.
I walked silently for 50 meters, which seemed to me as long as a century, and with every step I took, I wanted to turn around and run away.
What the hell is going to be? Could it be that "Manji Dad"?
I was thinking about the worst. Suddenly, the man turned to me! I chuckled in my heart, and suddenly my throat was raised. Then I saw him on all fours, and he was slowly crawling towards me.
I can't stand it anymore, I just feel the fear in my heart that the veins are going backwards, what is that? Tears began to rush out of my eyes again, and I turned around and ran back.
"Wang! Barking! ~" Suddenly, a deep dog bark sounded behind me. I braked hard and stopped. Looking back, I saw the shadow wagging its tail desperately.
"Manji?" I took two steps forward, "It's really a good luck!" "God, I can't believe my eyes, finally let me see you! I almost wanted to cry, tears bursting out of my eyes.
"Manji!" I ran to it crying. But Manji began to retreat, and suddenly assumed an offensive posture.
I was stunned. "Manji, what's wrong with you? I'm a mother! ”
And Manji stood his tail high, kicked the ground on his hind legs, the hairs on his back stood upright, and a threatening sound of "grunt" came out of his throat.
It shouldn't be like this, it's impossible for Manji to attack me? Don't......
At this time, that strange feeling came out again. Slowly, I moved my eyes to the right, and in the afterglow, in my ear, there was a human head, slowly reaching out.
said that it was too late, and when the man's head opened his bloody mouth and was about to bite it suddenly, Manji jumped up and pounced, biting the man's head and dragging it down.
In an instant, the man fell to the ground and broke into several pieces. Manji wanted to rush up and bite, but I dragged him down. At the same time, there was a "beep" in the music of the snake. It's the sound of a snake being killed.
This scene is all too familiar to me, and that night, it was such a "floating corpse" that besieged my home. Now the appearance of "them" confirmed my suspicion, that night was not a nightmare, but something quietly haunted me!
I let go of the manji and warned it not to touch the pile, for the experience of that night had taught me that if you approached the broken corpse, the pieces of the corpse would instantly snap onto your body like iron slag meets magnet, and finally become a horrible appearance, so I don't need to repeat it.
At this time, it was the snake music in the house that caught my attention even more.
The sound came from my charged phone in the room, and now it was glowing with a faint light, singing happily.
Pulling open the glass door, I stepped closer. I saw that the little snake of "Manji Mother" was spinning in circles in place, and next to it was a pile of snake corpses.
I unplugged my phone, pressed the back button, and sure enough, I couldn't quit. When Manji killed the floating corpse just now, - oh no, it seems that it would be more accurate to call it "snake corpse" - the sound of the snake being killed rings on the phone, that is, the mobile game is synchronized with us. "Manji Mama" is spinning in place, which should mean that we are not moving now.
"Humph!" I sneered, and at this moment, I fully understood the current situation. I, the "Manji Mother", in this "arranged" world, am ready to stage a "real snake glutton".
"Manji, come in first!" I summoned Manji into the house, picked up the mineral water and wrench that had just fallen on the ground, and closed the glass door with my backhand. By the light of the flashlight, he probed the house to confirm that there were no foreign objects, then sat down, unscrewed the mineral water bottle, and beckoned Manji to come over and drink water first. Manji seemed to have not eaten for a long time, and he drank Sisociso, and his saliva shook me in the face. I wiped my face, took out the corn sausage I had in my pocket before, and watched Manji finish it in two bites.
"Manji? Can you tell Mom where Daddy is? ”
"Woo~~" Manji snorted and actually lay on the ground.
"What does this mean? What happened to Manji's father? Is there any danger? I asked anxiously. Manji looked frustrated and wagged his tail gently.
Seeing this scene, I don't expect to get more details from Manji's mouth. What's next, to find Manji's dad or? …… But how much of this world is real? I mean, by now we know that our world is connected to games, but what about people in the real world? Are they in the game, or are they outside the game? What does the appearance of Manji represent?
Suddenly, Manji stood up, the hair on his back was tied up, and he took on an attacking posture again. I looked out of the glass door, my mother, when, all the black heads were already densely gathered at the door, like a school of fish in a fish tank? However, unlike the snake corpse that night, which was quiet and quiet, only suddenly appeared and approached quickly, tonight's snake corpse was much more restless and ferocious. One by one, their fangs leaked out, their teeth bared, and their saliva was covered in a glass door.
"Woohoo! ......" Manji roared desperately, his front paws stood up and picked up the glass door, and the glass door was pushed and swayed, and the group of snake corpses was like waves of the sea.
This can't be done, I'm afraid the glass door won't be able to support it for long, and I have to pull the roller shutter down!
"Manji retreats!" As I spoke, I picked up the lever and went to reach the roller shutter. Manji roared back, and suddenly, it made a move I never expected! Manji took two steps back, and with a riveting force, he actually slammed straight into the glass door! The door was rushed open in an instant, and the group of snake corpses was hit in front of them, and they retreated one after another, and Manji rushed out first, and the group of snake corpses immediately swarmed away.
"Manji! ~~" I hissed and roared, watching as Manji led a large group of snake corpses to disappear into the darkness. I can't, I can't lose my manji, I can't! I grabbed the wrench and chased after him.
"Manji!" I ran and shouted! Not far away, I heard the sound of dogs biting and fighting, and I chased after them! Chase straight to the "big family" with two large iron gates. A crack in the door was now open, and the door was littered with corpses. "Whew! ......" screamed from inside the door. "Manji!" I cried out, stepping over the body pieces and squeezing in through the crack in the door.
When I entered the courtyard, I looked around, except for the two large white pillars coiled with giant claws and auspicious dragons at the entrance of the three-story western-style building, the rest were pitch black.
"Manji?" I tried to shout. For some reason, the western-style building in front of me is so dark that it is difficult to feel the edges and outlines of the building when you are close to you, as if you are one with the darkness.
"Wang!" A voice came from the building. I hurriedly took three steps and two steps up the steps, because it was too dark, and I almost stumbled and fell on the steps. I struggled to my feet and stepped up the last step when suddenly a figure in front of me swayed 10 meters away. My heart immediately hung in the air, and I clenched the wrench and did not dare to move forward. The shadow stood there motionless.
It shouldn't be a snake corpse, I thought to myself. The snake corpse always came and went horizontally on the ground, and the one in front of him stood like a human.
"Wang!" Manji's voice came from the house again.
I'm so anxious, I don't care so much about him, it's a human or a ghost, let's go up and see first! I gritted my teeth and stepped forward. But when I saw that figure was walking towards me at the same speed, getting closer and closer, I broke out in a cold sweat. Finally, we almost had to face each other, and finally saw that the person in front of us was actually myself!
I took two steps back in fright, but saw that the "me" also took two steps back. I hesitated, raised my hand and waved, and the "I" waved as well. I looked up and looked up and down, and it turned out to be a mirror! On the door of this house, there is a whole mirror outward! There is feng shui saying that hanging a mirror at the door has the meaning of warding off evil spirits, such a big mirror, how much evil is to avoid?
After figuring out the situation, I didn't dare to delay too much, pushed open the door and walked in.
"Manji? Ji ...... "I called softly, echoes echoing throughout the house. There was no response.
The structure of this house is very different from what I imagined. In the past, when I looked inside the courtyard gate through the fence and lush trees, I only felt that the house had some structural style from the Republic of China, but the exterior wall was paved with the iconic white wall bricks of a modern urban village, so it was quaint and modern, and a little nondescript. It is probably the old house of the ancestors, and now the urban village has been renovated and rested, which has achieved the current appearance. But now, the house is different inside and out.
The house is next to the east window, there is a spiraling staircase, and for the rest, there is no decoration in sight. I was about to go up the stairs when a shadow passed by the door and disappeared behind the stairs. I was so shocked that I cried out, "Manji! "Hurry up and chase after it.
Go around to the back of the stairs, there is clearly only one wall, where did Manji go? Am I dazzled?
"Manji, where are you? Come out! I turned around anxiously and looked around anxiously and shouted loudly, when suddenly my feet were empty, and my whole body instantly lost my center of gravity and fell down heavily......
