"Hmmm......"

At this moment, my grandmother, who was wearing a respirator, seemed to wake up.

The uncle immediately walked up, bent down, and whispered, "Mom, are you awake?" What are you going to say?"

Grandma seemed to want to say something, but she couldn't hear it clearly.

Although my grandmother was rescued, her body was still very weak, and no one knew when she would die. The uncle immediately crouched down, trying to listen carefully to his grandmother's voice.

Dong Xie's position, but he couldn't hear what his grandmother was saying at all. It took a long time for the uncle to straighten up, look at Dong Xie's other older uncle, and say, "Mom, she's still mentioning Ah Yan's name."

Ah Yan is Dong Xie's mother. Thinking of his grandmother's dying, he was still so worried about his mother who had passed away a long time ago, Dong Xie couldn't help but feel sour.

"However, Mom also said strange things, I don't know if I heard it wrong...... She seemed to say...... Turtle?"

Dong Xie was stunned, and the second monk was confused for a while.

What does turtle mean?

At this time, my grandmother continued to fall into a deep sleep.

Dong Xie thought about it, he really didn't understand what the relationship between his mother and the turtle was?

When it was noon, Dong Xie felt hungry, and at this time his cousin also came. The uncle said that he would let his cousin Yu Li take him to lunch first, and they planned to go to dinner later.

My cousin is a bank clerk, so it's not easy to take a leave of absence. She has always been very envious of her cousin who can do freelance work at home full-time by writing, and can have a monthly manuscript fee of more than 10,000 yuan. Along the way, I also asked from time to time how Dong Xie's recent new book was doing.

Dong Xie smiled bitterly, he had been off for 2 weeks. Now that I am not short of money, I will issue a eunuch statement in a few days.

At this time, he opened WeChat and saw A Ning's message, as well as countless residents in the apartment's WeChat group who asked to add him as friends. Countless people wanted to ask him about the specifics of the Scarlet Mission.

"Cousin, do you believe that evil spirits exist in this world?"

"Believe!"

The cousin's answer was much more than Dong Xie expected, and he thought that she would definitely answer that he didn't believe it. The cousin said: "Now is the era of the explosion of online information, and many things are not absolute. I've been scrolling through Zhihu recently, why don't I recommend a few articles in this area for you to see?"

"Hmm...... No need to ......"

"Ahh

"Huh?"

"Are you really going to spend the rest of your life with your bloodless sister?"

Dong Xie was stunned for a while, and hurriedly asked, "How do you know ......?"

"There are no impermeable walls. I just think, are you really going to live with Ah Ning like this for the rest of your life? You really think this secret will always be ......."

"Ah Ning is my sister. That's ......"

"Ah Xie, cousin, I am also a person who has been in love. Usually we only see each other once or twice a year, but I have observed the way you look at Ah Ning. That's not the way my brother looks at my sister. ”

Dong Xie was speechless for a while.

"I ......," he then shook his head, "Sister, don't tell Ah Ning." Don't talk to her about anything. I don't want ...... Make a difference in our lives. ”

Maybe they'll die soon.

Well, Dong Xie didn't want to change anything.

……

Time flies. In the days that followed, the apartment began a meeting to study the scarlet letter.

"What?"

Dong Xie looked at Qin Ziyuan in front of him in surprise: "Is that the case?"

Qin Ziyuan replied: "You have so much money, don't you know how to use it?" I paid someone to contact the landlord's son and gave him a large sum of money. Then he told the truth. ”

"Say...... What did he say? ”

"There were indeed dead people on the 4th floor in the past. It's just that he hid it. The dead were an old man whose wife had long since died. When he died, in the early morning of December 1, 2009, in his own study, he accidentally knocked down the bookshelf and was stoned to death. But because he lived alone, it was winter at the time, and the corpse decomposed slowly, and it was not until the stench spread to the outside that everyone called the police. The old man's son didn't care about him at all, so he bought a cat for the old man. That year coincided with the H1N1 avian influenza pandemic, and before the old man died, someone saw him coughing badly, so some people later reported that he had bird flu and died. That's why the 4th floor was blocked. ”

Only then did Dong Xie understand that the stench in the study room and the cracks in the bookshelves......

Recalling the loud noise he heard from the 4th floor on the 5th floor, he suddenly realized that this was the loud noise from the bookshelves falling down 10 years ago. This is often the case in his horror novels, where people make the same sound on the same day of death many years after their death!

"The tragedy of empty nesters." Mo Yuan sighed at this: "That's why the old man turned into an evil spirit?"

Dong Xie was still puzzled: "But I still can't explain the fact that at that time, the hand of the evil spirit suddenly retracted." It's so unreasonable! ”

"Could it be that you triggered some second life?" Mo Yuan said: "There was a person named Bian Xingchen in the previous blood character record, he was lucky, and he inadvertently triggered the way of life. You should be in a similar situation. ”

"Maybe it's because Zhao Long just died at that time?" Dong Ning said on the side: "Maybe the evil spirit opened the door just to scare us."

"No, it won't," Mo Yuan shook his head, "At that time, the evil spirit was separated by two hours before killing people...... It doesn't feel like it's because of Zhao Long's death. ”

For a while, the meeting began to have a heated discussion on this issue. Of course, it is impossible for so many residents to come one by one, so each floor elects a few representatives to come over, record the content of the meeting, and go back to convey the minutes of the meeting on each floor. Someone used a laptop to record the meeting and then printed it out and distributed it to the floors. These records will also be passed on to future new residents, improving their survival rate.

Dong Xie felt that he was now called a "dark horse" or even a "koi" by many people, and he came to set up a close, add WeChat, and invite more people to dinner. After all, not every time the blood word is cut off from the apartment like this time, many people want someone to guide them when they carry out the blood word instructions.

After the meeting, they began to discuss the new blood character task that Mo Yuan and others were about to perform.

"This mission is to ask for the protection of several specific people."

Mo Yuan himself has recorded the blood word task and made a PPT, and then turned off the lights indoors to play the PPT. In particular, the four people designated for protection only know their appearances, and even their names are unknown.

Dong Xie hurriedly asked, "That ...... In the case of a protective mission, if four people die, will the mission fail and cause the Shadow Curse to activate? ”

Mo Yuan analyzed: "The blood letter mission literally means to protect those four people from all falling into hell. From this point of view, it should be true. ”

At this time......

Dong Xie's grandmother is in the ward.

Uncle Dong Xie, who was accompanying him all night, heard his mother start talking again.

"Mom?"

Then, he continued to hear his mother say, "Ah Yan...... Ah Yan ...... Turtle...... Turtle ......"

"Why is it a turtle again?"

The suspicious uncle didn't notice at all that this turtle was the third sound, not the first!
