Chapter 7: The Frightened Bird
At this time, Dong Ning walked up and said, "Yes, it's not her...... I'm sorry, Mr. Chen, my brother is just stunned. Don't worry about him. ”
Dong Ning was also very scared at this time, but the matter had come to this point, and he was afraid that he would not be able to solve the problem.
"But...... How did Auntie go? It's still very spiritual to look at the photos, it's a pity. ”
"Heart disease. Before she left, she also had a bunch of illnesses on her body, high blood pressure, emphysema...... And so it went, I guess...... I can't live for a few years, in fact, I want to live more with my son, daughter-in-law and granddaughter, but they all have their own lives, and I, a bad old man, can only stay here to live. ”
Dong Ning then asked, "I still have a question...... On the 4th floor, I looked locked when I came up just now...... What's going on? ”
"Hmm......" the landlord nodded, "I don't know...... It seems that the 4th floor has been abandoned for a long time, and then it was locked for some reason, and the stairwell can't be entered. That floor is uninhabited now. ”
"I didn't ...... What happened out of the ordinary? Dong Ning continued to ask.
"It seems that Mr. Zhao, you also asked me before? I don't remember exactly, though, I'm older. Something out of the ordinary? What anomaly? ”
It seems that it is difficult for the old man to provide any reliable information.
This is very frustrating. After all, critical intelligence can save lives.
"Zhao Long!"
At this time, in the stairwell on the side, Feng Yu and Ge Qi ran out!
They ran to the door, looked at the landlord and Zhao Long, trembled, and asked, "Now...... How's it going? ”
Seeing that the two of them came safe and sound, Zhao Long finally breathed a sigh of relief.
After all, one more person can give yourself more comfort or ...... in this terrifying environment How much can strengthen courage.
Zhao Long then asked the landlord a few more questions, and after making sure that he couldn't ask for more information, the landlord went downstairs, saying that he would wait until daytime to change the locks.
After closing the door, Feng Yu stared at Zhao Long's face and asked, "...... she?" Will she still come up? Why don't we just spend the night in the hallway?"
"Don't worry too much about it first...... Zhao Long finally came to his senses now, and analyzed: "In the current situation, there are precedents in the past. We knew it was dangerous, didn't we? ”
Dong Xie also felt that if he really wanted to go out, he wouldn't be safe. In this place, there will be danger everywhere.
"Let's take a look at the other floors." Dong Xie proposed: "Maybe you can find clues related to the way of life." This place maybe someone knows the truth about the 4th floor. ”
Don't go to the 4th floor......
The old lady's words were still coiled in Dong Xie's heart. Her strange tone and cloudy eyes are still hard to forget.
Is this ...... "those things"? It doesn't look much different from a human.
After ten years of writing horror thriller novels, countless readers have asked him if he has any real supernatural experiences, but he didn't expect that he would see "those things" for the first time today.
"It's also a way...... Zhao Long looked at his phone again and said, "But...... 4th Floor ......"
After that weird experience, who would dare to go to the 4th floor? Isn't that death?
"It can't be that simple, right?" Dong Ning frowned slightly and said, "It's not necessarily ...... Not going to the 4th floor is the way to live this time?"
The others exchanged glances, and then, Zhao Long shook his head and said, "How can it be so simple...... But it's certainly an important clue......"
You know, the 4th floor...... Right at their feet!
"Maybe...... The 4th floor is key. Goose, who had always been reticent, came up with an idea: "If we go to the fourth floor, we may be able to find a clue to survive." In that case......"
Zhao Long was stunned for a moment, and then immediately shook his head: "No!" This may be a dead end! ”
Dong Xie and Dong Ning brothers and sisters already know that the so-called blood word indicates that there is a way to live, and there is often a way to die. Once the occupant triggers the dead end, then ...... and he will surely die. If you don't trigger a dead end, maybe there's a glimmer of life. There is no shortage of precedent for this in the past blood records. After all, Gucci was a new resident who had only executed the blood letter once, and he obviously didn't know enough about it.
For a moment, there was a dead silence in the room.
Dong Xie stroked his forehead and said, "That...... We...... Let's explore the other floors first......"
However, as soon as the words came out, he looked at everyone's faces and knew that it was not that simple. After what happened just now, now everyone can say that they have become frightened birds, and no one dares to go out easily. Yes, everyone knows that in the early days of Scarlet, the apartment would restrict the movement of "those things", there is no doubt about that. It is only when the Scarlet Word is nearing its end that its restrictions are gradually weakened. However, it is said that people are always more emotional than rational, especially when it comes to their own life and death.
"That ......" Feng Yu unnaturally stretched out his hand and stroked his face, and said, "I...... I brought a couple of packets of instant coffee with my own coffee mate, huh...... Why don't I soak some of it for you? After all, it's going to be a tough battle at night. ”
Feng Yu's extremely unclever diversion of the topic also clearly shows ...... He had no intention of going out. Although everyone knows, this place is not safe at all. But in people's habitual thinking, they always feel that the house will be safer.
"Hmm...... Coffee ......" Zhao Long also acquiesced in Feng Yu's topic shift, and simply began to pretend to be stupid: "Then ...... Brew some coffee. ”
Several of them were obviously frightened.
Dong Ning looked at this scene and said, "I'll go wash my face first." ”
Dong Xie hurriedly walked up and said, "I'll go wash my face too." A Ning ......"
Walking into the bathroom, Dong Ning turned on the light. She turned on the faucet and began to rinse her face directly, regardless of the makeup on her face. A Ning's character is that even if she has to face the blood word instructions, she will never forget to put on makeup, and if she can go back alive, Dong Xie feels that she may not cut off her makeup live broadcast.
"Ah Ning......" Dong Xie noticed that Ah Ning's hands still couldn't stop shaking.
He was very painful in his heart at this time, and in this situation, there was really too little he could do for Ah Ning. If he really faced "those things", he wouldn't even be able to protect Ah Ning. In his writing, his protagonist can do anything, and slaying demons is like chopping vegetables, but in reality, he has never even had a precedent for winning a fight. Obviously, in this bloody mission, the only way to survive is ...... Rely on the mind!
