Chapter 10: Psychic Games
Two similar footsteps echoed in the hallway, and the bottom of the doors on either side glowed with different colors.
Walking in a spotless scene, it is easy to have the illusion of time blurring, and whenever Yu Xing turns back, he can see that the "Nai He Bridge" is there, always at the end of the line of sight, as if the distance has not changed.
After three or four minutes, Yu Xing's eyebrows moved: It's a little strange, after so long, how can the other two groups finish the matter at hand.
But they didn't appear on the stairs for a long time.
Don't...... The stairs I see now are already in a state where it is difficult to distinguish between reality and reality, and each group is in a different space after coming up through the stairs?
Yu Xing, this would explain why they hadn't met Orange and Xiaoyan for so long.
"Jingle Bell ......"
Suddenly, a bell rang from the front.
At the same time, Yu Xing's wrist tugged, and the little bell gave a crisp prompt, and even dragged him forward.
Zhao Yijiu's bell also rang, and they glanced at each other, and there was no panic in their eyes.
What should come will come.
The bell rang for a few seconds and then disappeared, but the traction on the wrist was still there, and they remembered that the foreman said "don't let the guest ring the bell a second time", which was better to hear.
So the two of them quickened their pace, and soon saw a room with a faint red light leaking from the crack in the door.
Yu Xing said: "This is it. ”
"Hmm." Zhao Yijiu stretched out his hand to open the door, but there was no push.
There was something wriggling on the dark door, and they saw it as a stain of blood through the dark green lantern hanging from the ceiling.
Although the red blood stains were somewhat discolored in the light of the green lantern, they still got the message given to them by the "guests".
The blood squirmed for a moment, forming an Arabic numeral "1" on the door.
“?” Zhao Yijiu looked at Yu Xing with a question in his eyes.
"One ......," Yu Xing muttered, "probably only one person can go in?" ”
His voice fell, and the number on the door did not change.
Zhao Yijiu didn't think that Yu Xing was wrong, he asked directly: "Then you come or I come." ”
"I'll do it." Yu Xing thought about it for two seconds.
He thinks that Zhao Yijiu should not be afraid of ghosts now, but ghosts are normally unkillable without the special methods given in the deduction, so Zhao Yijiu is still at risk of being hurt by ghosts.
And he himself...... He can't die anyway, even if he can't help the ghost thing, the ghost thing can't help him in turn, so it's better to let him test how strong the ghost thing on the second floor is.
Zhao Yijiu didn't rob him: "Be careful." ”
Yu Xing: "I know, I know." ”
Under Zhao Yijiu's gaze, Yu Xing touched the doorknob again, this time the door did not stop him, and in the piercing squeak, the rusty and dull seemed to be slowly opened as if the door that had not been maintained for many years was slowly opened.
The air, which was more humid than the corridor, permeated his breath, and a faint red light reflected Yu Xing's pale face, he turned back to Zhao Yijiu and nodded, signaling him to move freely, and then walked in.
It was a square room, furnished like a bathroom, with large tiles underneath.
As soon as Yu Xing fully entered the room, the door behind him squeaked and closed by himself, and the lock rang by the way, and the things in the room "intimately" locked the door for him, separating him from the corridor.
A small pale red lamp hung on the wall, allowing Yu Xing to barely see the layout of the room.
The room was large, and the seven-by-seven space was too empty to be decorated, so the only thing here stood out.
The most conspicuous thing is a large pure white bathtub in the middle of the room, Yu Xing walked over indifferently, put his hand on the edge of the bathtub, and glanced inside.
There's water in it.
The water is not transparent, it is full, due to the dimness of the environment, this tank of water seems to be pitch black, only on the surface of the floating light, reflecting the shadow of Yu Xing alone.
No one knows if something will be immersed in the water.
Yu Xing looked away and looked around to see that there were no guests here.
Neither is it right...... Yu Xing felt the coldness and ghostly aura in the space, and guessed that the guest was here, but he didn't appear, and he might be watching him in the dark.
One thing to say, there are very few things in this room.
In addition to this bathtub, there is a cardboard box in the corner of the room, and behind the bathtub, on the wall directly opposite the door, is inlaid with a full-length mirror.
There are not many places where you can hide people, or ghosts.
Yu Xing's fingertips slid across the bathtub, and the cold and slippery touch remained on his fingertips.
He walked to the mirror, in which he gradually magnified himself, his expression gloomy, his shirt and suit pants lined his figure more and more straight, and his black hair was many and soft, so that he could not see the feminine face of his specific age showing a youthful atmosphere.
The bathtub was behind him, quiet, but the more he looked at it, the more terrifying it became.
Yu Xing smiled, and he made the same expression in the mirror.
He didn't care about the mirror, but focused on the frame.
The frame of this full-length mirror was wide and heavy, carved with meaningless dense patterns, and he reached out and touched it, a sharp touch unique to metal.
Touching and touching, he froze.
"This is ......" grabbed a piece of paper between his fingers, and Yu Xing tore the palm-sized piece of paper from the side of the frame, and finally saw the request of the "guest".
Let's play a game, waiter.
It's my favorite game, second only to youth and fear. Come on, it's called ...... Bloody Mary.
Bloody Mary?
Yu Xing was intrigued, and if he remembered correctly, the term had several meanings, in addition to the Bloody Mary cocktail, it was also the medieval Queen of England and Ireland, whose real name was Mary I.
In addition, Bloody Mary, a person full of horror legends, is known as the crippled bride, the bloodthirsty premonitor, and the vicious witch.
And the Bloody Mary mentioned by this guest should be a very famous psychic game.
There are also many versions of this game, Yu Xing doesn't know which version is here for the time being, he then looks at the second half of the note.
Step 1: Turn off all the lights and splash water on the mirror.
Step 2: Light a candle and place it in front of a mirror with a knife in your hand.
Step 3: Call "bloodymary" three times, breathe out each syllable clearly, and look in the mirror.
Step 4: Wait for Bloody Mary to arrive.
There are four steps in total, which is not too cumbersome, but in general, the easiest version does not require splashing water and carrying a knife.
It is said that there are times when Bloody Mary does not hurt people, only her reflection is seen in the mirror, and she will answer some questions from the summoner.
Sometimes Bloody Marys will force people to commit suicide or pull people into the mirror.
With the extra requirements of splashing water and holding a knife, Yu Xing always felt that the summoned Bloody Mary would be a very terrifying thing.
