Chapter 18: Are You Inside?
You can't hold it, and if you reach out and pick up the doll now, I'm afraid it's just the right time for the doll to attack or even kill someone.
Yu Xing rolled over and got out of bed.
The one at the head of the bed is like an idol radar, and his head twists with Yu Xing's movements, which is very weird.
"Mom!"
Yu Xing listened to the doll's unchanged tone, barely suppressed the resentment of not being able to sleep, lowered his eyes and thought: This unlucky thing is looking for his mother.
So, there must be something in this villa, it's its mother.
He walked briskly to the door and twisted the handle.
In fact, it was only eight o'clock, and the lights in the hallway were on, leaking in a little under the crack in the door, and if I could get out, the fear of claustrophobia would be broken.
But obviously, the ghost didn't make such a mistake, and the door couldn't be opened.
He stared at the crack in the door for a moment, and the doll began to crawl towards him again. As long as you don't stare at it, you will always look for opportunities to catch people, but at this time, it brings a great sense of oppression.
- Except for Yu Xing.
Yu Xing didn't pay attention to the little short legs, he walked around the doll, lifted the sheets on the bed, and then came to the doll with bad intentions.
The doll remained motionless: "Mom! β
Yu Xing: "Heh. β
The next second, Yu Xing covered the doll with the sheet in his hand, and then packed it.
The doll lost its vision all of a sudden, and to be honest, it didn't know if Yu Xing outside the sheet had seen it, so it moved like a headless fly in the sheet wrapping.
Yu Xing looked at the moving thing, thinking about whether the doll would fall apart if he used this thing as a hammer to swipe twice on the ground, and his eyes gradually adjusted to the darkness.
The first wave, done.
"Hee-hee-hee."
No sooner had he sorted out his thoughts than a burst of laughter came from behind him.
His inspiration suddenly reacted, his body moved quickly, and he rolled to the sideβ
A piece of silk fluttered down where Yu Xing was standing just now.
Yu Xing was overjoyed to see the silk, because it represented the oil painting that had not moved since he first entered the door...... Finally moved.
The painting still hangs on the wall, but the woman in the painting is gone.
Yu Xing's eyes drifted to all corners, and in order to prevent dizziness caused by anemia, he slowly stood up.
But just now he rolled a little harder, and he still felt a little dizzy when he stood up at this time, and after a while, he felt two arms wrapped around his waist.
A body was attached to the back.
The hands were very soft and very warm, and the body also had its own body temperature, just like a living person, and hugged Yu Xing from behind.
[You are held by the person in the painting, HP -5]
Hug it and reduce health?
Yu Xing stiffened slightly, and from his back, he felt that it was a woman who was hugging him, and there was obviously no living person in his room, so ...... The female ghost in the painting came out.
The breath of the female ghost sprayed behind Yu Xing's ears, and she hummed a song in a low voice.
The song is like a ballad, ethereal and soft, and it makes people drowsy when you listen to it.
However, the movements of the female ghost's hands are the opposite of the tune, slowly descending with the humming, and there is no intention of making people sleep at all.
Yu Xing's eyes became cold, and he grabbed the female ghost's wrist, tore it away with his usual great force, and smashed it to the side along the way-
The singing was suddenly interrupted, the sound of the woman smashing on the ground did not come, Yu Xing's hands were empty, and the woman disappeared.
Yu Xing looked around vigilantly and relaxed his body.
The melody that had just been hummed softly swirled in his head, was this the song mentioned in the rumors of Aurilong?
It doesn't seem right, the rumor is that the singing is only at midnight, and it is not so quiet.
It's just that...... The female ghost in the painting seems to be a ghost that moves silently and can appear and disappear at any time, so isn't this kind of ghost very buggy?
Yu Xing raised his eyebrows, feeling impossible.
The female ghost escaped from him, and she did not appear in the painting, and should still be lingering nearby.
He looked at the silk that had been left on the ground.
When the female ghost came out, the silk fell to the ground first, so if you want the female ghost to really leave, maybe you have to rely on it, this idea is reasonable.
He stepped forward to pick up the silk, and the slippery, cold touch wrapped around his hand, making him more sober.
After not waiting for two minutes, the female ghost reappeared.
A humming folk tune lingered in the room, and this time she appeared in the front, unable to see what she was wearing in the dark, but Yu Xing felt that she was wearing nothing.
Every step of the female ghost is like stepping in the air, virtual and real, and she came to Yu Xing's eyes in the blink of an eye.
Yu Xing wanted to dodge, but he soon found that he couldn't move his whole body because he was being stared at head-on by the female ghost.
He could only observe the female ghost more closely.
In terms of appearance, this is a woman with a beautiful face, her every move is full of charm and laziness, she doesn't care about being rejected by Yu Xing just now, and in front of him, she stretched out her hand to wrap her arms around Yu Xing's neck.
[You are held by the person in the painting, HP -5]
Yu Xing: "......"
The warm touch came from his chest, which probably made many men feel terrified at the same time.
However, Yu Xing guessed that if he and the female ghost had a more intimate move, his health would plummet.
The female ghost raised her head, stared at Yu Xing's face, and raised her lips.
Yu Xing: "Give you face?" Take advantage of me? β
He found that he could move, and with a shake of the silk in his hand, he draped it over the woman, who gave a short exclamation and disappeared again.
Yu Xing looked at the frame, and sure enough, the figure of the female ghost reappeared in the picture, presumably after being covered by silk, she couldn't get out for a while.
You always have to cool down when you run out of skills.
Yu Xing touched the place touched by the female ghost in disgust, feeling like a young man from a good family who had been insulted.
Well...... Ancestors of the good family.
However, why did the two ghosts start to be active at night? Is it because of the darkness or because of some other condition?
In order to go to bed early, Yu Xing began to organize his thoughts, guessing the weaknesses of the two ghosts that had appeared.
Between "action" and "non-action", it is inevitably accompanied by the satisfaction and transformation of conditions.
For example, the doll only became active after he turned off the lights.
It is likely that the doll is a "nocturnal creature", so it should be photophobic.
The weaknesses that may be associated with the doll are photophobia, fear of sight, slow movement, and the doll's "mother".
What about oil paintings?
Oil paintings are very well-behaved during the day, do not move at all, and at first glance they also appear to be photophobic.
But Yu Xing did not ignore the attack of the oil painting after he wrapped the doll in a sheet.
He didn't believe that ghosts could accompany him to play turn-based and send them one by one, so if he thought about it, everything would make sense...... Oil painting should be afraid of dolls!
During the day, the doll is in the room, and the oil painting does not dare to move.
It happened that the doll was divided by Yu Xing later, and put his head directly opposite the oil painting, and the oil painting was as quiet as a chicken.
And just now, he trapped the doll, and the oil painting was liberated and began to bewitch.
So the weaknesses that may be related to oil painting, are: dolls, silk.
In this case......
With schadenfreude in his eyes, Yu Xing got up and removed the frame from the wall, opened the sheet that wrapped the doll, and covered the frame with the doll.
Oil painting:......
He seemed to feel the painting tremble.
"That's it, sure enough, the family still has to be neat." Yu Xing tied the sheets in a dead knot and threw them into the corner of the room, feeling that there should be nothing in the room for him to guard against.
So what else will come? It can't be that only two ghosts with such obvious weaknesses come and harass him, and it's over in one go, right?
As soon as the thought came to him, he heard the door of the next room open.
It was Mr. and Mrs. Brown's room.
Aside from him, York and Martha, the original people and ghosts in this villa must not have slept yet, and this is not the time to sleep.
Mrs. Brown should be on the first floor with the children now, and during the small talk, Yu Xing heard Susan say, and every night Mrs. Brown would sit in a chair by the fireplace, knitting a sweater and telling Susan stories.
The light sound of opening the door is easy to ignore, and then the coughing sound has to confirm a fact-
Mr. Brown is out again!
The last time I came out, I was attracted by my knock, but this time? Is the scream of a female ghost?
Yu Xing lowered his eyes and looked at the crack in the door, and saw a black shadow standing in front of his door, blocking most of the light coming from the crack in the door.
The cough continued, but Yu Xing in the door and Mr. Brown outside the door seemed to have finished looking at each other through the wooden door.
A moment later, a hoarse male voice came from outside the door: "Is there anyone inside?" β
Yu Xing: Yes, I'm asleep, don't disturb.
He sat back on the bed slowly, softly.
Mrs. Brown and Mr. Brown live in the same room, because there are guests in the house, and Mr. Brown's dinner is still eaten in the room, how can he not know if there is a resident next door?
It's a superfluous question to ask, and it's because it's a redundant move that we can't respond, what if there are conditions for death?
He didn't answer now, and if he was asked later, he could have slept too well to hear.
After a moment of confrontation, Mr. Brown at the door had no intention of leaving: "Is there anyone inside?" β
A few seconds later, he reached out and knocked on the door.
"Knock knock."
"Is there anyone in there?"
There are people inside, and there are repeaters outside.
Yu Xing felt that Mr. Brown was like a doll, he could only say one sentence, repeating it over and over again, but the other party should not be able to enter for a while.
So Yu Xing planned to sleep peacefully.
The sheets were gone, Yu Xing was a little uncomfortable, he wrapped himself in the quilt, and fell asleep in an environment where others should be trembling and unwilling to sleep.
This sleep, I slept for three hours.
At eleven o'clock, Yu Xing opened his eyes on time, emptied his spirit, and then got up.
His stamina is back to 100.
Well...... It's a very comfortable number to look at.
Health is still 90, and it doesn't seem like this will be restored with sleep rest.
As soon as he got out of bed, he heard a wave of footsteps from far and near, and a moment later, York's deliberately muffled voice rang out:
"Roy, are you in there?"
This voice still made Yu Xing feel very familiar, and Yu Xing felt that he must have heard it recently.
Just as he was about to answer "yes", Martha's voice also sounded slightly: "Brother Roy, open the door, we have something to say!" β
The hand that was about to open the door paused, and a strange look appeared on Yu Xing's face.
There was only one footstep, why were there two people standing outside?
Unless, one of them was standing at his door!
