Chapter 21: Dolls

Eleven a.m.

Li Yin never felt that the sun was so beautiful.

At this time, he, Yazhen and the others had already entered the territory of Z City in a rented car.

"I really didn't expect the Blood Word Quest to be solved like this." Yajin, who was sitting next to him, still didn't feel real, "Did you plan to make Edward a resident of the apartment in the first place, and at the same time bring that evil spirit into the apartment and then devour it?" ”

"It's his own choice." Li Yin now feels very lucky: "There are really too many luck factors to succeed." After all, we are not residents, and it doesn't matter to us where we survive. ”

"Actually, it's not hard to speculate." Silver Night, who was in charge of driving, analyzed: "These apartment residents can't return to the apartment directly after the blood letter mission is time, so during the time period of returning to the apartment, they must let the evil spirit be completely destroyed, and Edward is naturally the final way of life arranged by the apartment." So from the beginning, Li Yin guessed this, so he handed him the key. After all, every resident carries their keys with them. ”

Either way, the blood letter is finally over. Now all you have to do is enter Z City and find clues to the entrance to hell.

Z City is a very small city, and the place where they are located at this time looks like an ordinary village and town. On the road, there were some vendors everywhere, and all kinds of fragrances wafted into Li Yin's nostrils along the car window.

"Why don't you find a place to eat?" Li Yin felt his stomach scream a little: "I didn't eat much last night." ”

"Okay," Mi Zhen raised his hand, stroked the hair on her husband Li Yin's forehead, and said, "You have worked hard...... Li Yin. ”

At this time, Li Yin's mobile phone rang.

He connected his mobile phone, and it was Dong Xie who called.

"We'll be in City Z in the afternoon." Dong Xie said on the other end of the phone: "I will come over with Mu Ziyi." ”

"Well, good. Pay more attention to safety. ”

……

At half past eleven, Li Yin and the others had lunch in a restaurant in this small village and town. The conditions here are limited, that is, ordinary peasant dishes, but for Li Yin now, it can be regarded as absolutely delicious.

"Boss, do you want a local chicken?" The boss saw at a glance that several of them were from other places, and came up and asked, "The local chickens we raised ourselves are now killed." ”

Li Yin took a bite of the dish, took another sip of soup, and said, "Okay." ”

He felt like he could eat a cow now.

Mi Zhen knew that the other party must be going to rip off customers, so he asked in advance, "How much?" ”

"It's okay," Silver Night hurriedly said, "I'm here for this meal." ”

"Okay, okay! Wife, go to the back and kill a local chicken! ”

Seeing that the boss was about to leave, Silver Night immediately stopped him: "Wait! Boss! ”

The boss hurriedly walked back and asked, "Alas, you don't have to call me boss, what else do you want?" Oh, by the way, our pork stew vermicelli is also very good, you can try it. ”

"Well," Silver Night cleared her throat and asked, "Actually, I wanted to inquire about something." ”

"If it's something in this area, I know a little bit about it." The boss immediately patted his chest and said, "What do you want to ask?" ”

Silver Night then asked, "That's right, we are people who are very interested in some folk culture, or strange anecdotes. I don't know...... Here, I'm not just talking about this place, it's the whole Z city, are there some haunted rumors? ”

Hearing this, the boss was stunned. It took him five seconds before he said, "You're laughing!" Where did the rumors come from about the haunting! ”

"It doesn't have to be now...... Well, it could be in the past, decades ago, or even hundreds of years ago...... Is there such a rumor? ”

Silver Night's words made the boss's expression playful, and it took him a long time before he said, "This ...... I don't really know much about that. I'm just a restaurant owner, so how do you know about such a thing? ”

Yinye took out two red and clear hundred-dollar bills from his body, put them on the table, and said, "Boss, just say, we won't treat you badly." ”

Seeing the red and clear RMB, the boss thought for a while and said: "Before the liberation, there seemed to be some rumors, and I also heard my parents say it when I was a child. ”

"Tell me about it!" Li Yin, who was eating, also looked over and asked, "What exactly is the rumor?" ”

"I remember the anti-Japanese meeting, in the first year of the Anti-Japanese War, North China was occupied by small Japan, and this Z city is naturally no exception. At that time, it is inevitable that there will be some traitors or something......"

"And then?"

"The traitors joined the North China Security Army, known as the Imperial Army. My grandfather was also deeply affected by this group of traitors at that time, and then in the second year of the Anti-Japanese War, those traitors were... They're all dead! ”

Originally, they listened carefully, but then they listened to it, and it didn't seem to have any supernatural colors, and the traitors died one by one, but no matter how you look at it, it looks more like human beings.

"This ...... Doesn't that sound like a haunting? "Dumbo e-book

"I don't know. At that time, grandpa, they all said it was haunted. ”

This is also natural, the villagers must want to spread this kind of rumors to cover up the operation to eradicate the traitors. This was either done by the Eighth Route Army, or by the killers of the military commanders.

"That...... Are there any other rumors? Silver Night wrote down the rumor just in case, and then asked.

And then ...... It was back in the seventies......"

The boss's next statement sounded quite bizarre, and no matter how it sounded, it sounded like a rumor spread by falsehood. However, they all recorded it.

"Actually," Li Yin waited for the local chicken to come up, and then took a bite before saying, "You gave the money too early." It's entirely possible that he's talking nonsense. ”

"yes...... But if there is really dry goods, he will definitely say it as soon as possible. ”

"I'll hang a map of City Z at home when I go back." Mi Zhen also brought a map of Z City with him at this time: "Next time Mi Tian gives me a dream, you can point me a place more finely." ”

"Hmm......" Li Yin also nodded.

At this moment, Shenyu stood up and said, "You guys eat first, I don't have much appetite, I'll go outside." ”

"Well, okay......" Li Yin could see that after returning from Japan, Shenyu had been in a state of extreme depression.

She was probably the most painful person among the residents who left the apartment. Even after leaving the apartment, she was still lonely and tormented by guilt.

Regarding this, it was difficult for Li Yin to explain her. It is undeniable that Deep Rain did commit an unforgivable crime. In that case, she should be burdened with it.

Pu Shenyu was walking outside alone.

She was mentally prepared for wanting to die in the process of blocking the entrance to hell. For her, these years of life were too painful. After she dies, she can go to meet Seongjin and Min. At that time, she felt that she could atone for her sins.

"Stars...... You're waiting for me......"

Shenyu muttered this, with this thought, she could make her easier now.

Before she knew it, she had walked several streets away. This street is full of itinerant vendors.

At this time, she suddenly came to one of the stalls.

On that small stall, there are delicately made dolls, about the size of a Barbie doll. Most of these dolls are dressed up in ancient times, and their faces are ...... It's made quite realistically.

Look at it...... I can't help but feel a sense of fear like the uncanny valley effect.

"Boss, how can this doll be sold......

The boss immediately said, "One five hundred." ”

She reached out and picked up a doll that looked like a Qing dynasty person.

"How does it feel?"

She touched the face of the doll, which was obviously not made of the same fabric as the doll's clothes, and the difference in touch was obvious.

Touch it......

It's like a real human face!

"Miss, you have a good eye." The boss immediately introduced: "This doll is the best workmanship." Would you like to consider buying one? ”

Deep Rain stared at the puppet in front of him, staring into its eyes.

Then, suddenly, she felt that something seemed to be visible from those eyes.

She gradually brought the doll to her front and looked at it.

However, the sun was too big for her to see what it was.

"I bought ......"

The boss was stunned, the other party didn't even bargain? To make money from outsiders, every time I deliberately say a high price that the other party cannot accept, and then wait for the other party to make a counteroffer. If I had known, I would have said a higher price.

"Okay, Alipay or WeChat?"

Deep rain continued to caress the face of the doll, and the more ...... touched The more it feels like ...... Real skin in general!
