Volume 1, Entering the City Chapter 10, Dark Shadows
"Buckle buckle." Lu Yi stepped forward and knocked on the door of the black house, and soon a little rickety old woman opened the door, Lu Yi showed a smile and said hello, indicating his intention.
The old woman glanced at Li Xinran, then her gaze fell on Lu Yi and gradually narrowed.
Lu Yi felt that the old woman's gaze suddenly became sharp, making his back a little hairy, and he was uncomfortable to see by this gaze, Lu Yi had to speak again, "We want to spend one night with you, is it convenient for you to see?" ”
The old woman's gaze softened at this time, "You are all outsiders? After receiving an affirmative reply from Lu Yi and the others, the old woman opened the door, "Come in." ”
When the two of them went in, the old woman looked at Lu Yi again and then said slowly, "I said in advance, there is a charge for staying overnight in the old woman." ”
Lu Yi and the two nodded in agreement.
The old woman led the two of them upstairs and said, "Let me tell you my rules here, you must turn off the lights and keep quiet at eleven twenty, you must close the doors and windows before going to bed, and you must not make any noise at night, let alone open the windows." ”
The old woman turned her head to look at the two of them, "I will come to inspect it then, and in the end, if something is damaged during your stay, you will have to compensate according to the price." ”
"That's fine." Lu Yi readily agreed.
After taking Lu Yi and the two to the adjacent two rooms, the old woman turned around and went downstairs.
After taking a refreshing bath, Lu Yi fell asleep on the bed and soon fell asleep.
"Cousin, cousin." In a daze, Lu Yi felt a female voice calling in his ear.
"Huh? Well? Lu Yi shifted his body and muttered, "Cousin? It must not be called me, I only have one cousin. ”
"Hey." The female voice sounded in Lu Yi's ears again, and at the same time, Lu Yi felt that he was shaken a few times, and suddenly he sat up with a trembling body.
Wiping the sweat on his forehead, and shaking his hand, Lu Yi felt that his fingers touched a cool and silky thing, Lu Yi's body stiffened, and he looked with his peripheral vision, only to see a woman with loose hair sitting next to him.
Lu Yi suddenly felt his throat dry, what is the situation? I didn't wear any ghost movies.
"Cousin." The woman grabbed Lu Yi's shoulder and shook it again.
Hearing the familiar voice, Lu Yi finally breathed a sigh of relief, and turned his head to see that it was Li Xinran.
"What? How did you get here? Lu Yi felt that Li Xinran's hands were trembling, so he grabbed the girl's hand and asked with concern.
"I, I feel like something, I'm so scared." Li Xinran said in horror, "Then I came to look for you, and I didn't hear you shouting at the door, and I was afraid that the voice would be loud, so I came in." ”
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. What do you think. Lu Yi patted Li Xin, and then asked in a low voice with his back.
Li Xinran was about to speak, when suddenly she pointed behind Lu Yi with a frightened face.
Lu Yi quickly moved his body, and at the same time looked back, there was nothing behind him, Lu Yi breathed a sigh of relief and just turned around, but the cold hairs on his body immediately stood up.
Lu Yi hurriedly turned his head again, the window of this house was pasted with window paper on the inside, and it should have been a whole hazy light under the light of the moon and street lamps, but at this time, a black shadow appeared in the upper right corner of the window.
The black shadow looked like the claws of some animal, and the fading blackness around it was its hair.
Lu Yi forcibly suppressed the fear in his heart, but turned his head and saw Li Xinran with his mouth open, looking like he was about to scream, Lu Yi hurriedly pounced on Li Xinran, and at the same time covered the girl's mouth with his hand.
Lu Yi hurriedly exchanged the air in his chest, but before the two could calm down, the paw prints outside the window began to move slowly downward, and a disturbing sound of scraping glass sounded in the silent room.
With a slight thud of the window, another paw print appeared on the glass, and the paw print swayed from side to side on the glass, as if to greet the two people in the room, and then the second paw print joined the ranks of scratching the glass.
Lu Yi leaned down and said in Li Xinran's ear, "I'll let go later, don't scream." Lu Yiyou glanced at the window, hoping that this window would last until half past six tomorrow, and wait for the window, the door and window shop.
"I see." Lu Yi continued to whisper in Li Xinran's ear, "Do you remember the almost connected door and window shop on the side of the road?
This town must have caused the glass to wear out very quickly because of the creatures outside the window, but in this case, ordinary people did not flee, and obviously ordinary people can live here safely and soundly through some methods. ”
Li Xinran gradually calmed down after listening to Lu Yi's words, and she nodded to indicate that she understood.
Lu Yi let go of his hand, "Sleep, after half past six, I will return to the human world." ”
"Still, it's a bit disturbing." After adjusting his posture, Lu Yi complained again.
Soon the two fell asleep again, and in a blur, Lu Yi seemed to hear the sound of children playing, and the thud of the ball hitting the ground one by one.
"Xiao Yi, come out to eat, Xiao Yi." A gentle female voice sounded outside the 'door'.
"Xiaoyi, let's eat first, eat well and then study, Dad made the hot pot you like to eat today." A male voice followed by a female voice.
"I, I see." Lu Yi said and staggered up in the dark room, stepping on the cold ground, Lu Yi stretched out his hand and walked towards the window step by step, and behind Lu Yi, Li Xinran also slowly got up and walked towards the window as if sleepwalking.
"Kid dad, why are you like a child, eat it alone." A gentle female voice grumbled outside the door.
"Hurry over, or we'll be left with the dregs." Lu Yi had such a thought in his heart, and reached out to grab the doorknob.
In reality, Lu Yi reached out and grabbed the window buckle, and the window would be opened as long as he turned and pulled.
At this moment, a red dot appeared in Lu Yi's left eye, and then a red vortex began to spread outward with this point as the center, and soon the red rounded six-pointed star appeared again.
At the same time, Lu Yi's eyes passed through the wooden door and saw a wolf face wrapped in black short hair, as if he felt Lu Yi's gaze, the wolf face turned his head slightly, and a pair of green eyes stared greedily at Lu Yi.
Lu Yi was full of excitement, broke free from the illusion, and when he fixed his eyes, he actually came to the window unconsciously.
Just when Lu Yi was about to retreat, a person bumped into Lu Yi's back, and turned his head to see Li Xinran also stretched out his hand in a daze to open the window, Lu Yi was startled and hurriedly covered Li Xinran's mouth with one hand, and grabbed the girl's waist with the other, dragging Li Xinran back.
However, Lu Yi had not done anything similar before, and the strength in his hand was not accurate, and Li Xinran was pulled by Lu Yi and almost fell to the ground, but because of this, Li Xinran also struggled out of the illusion.
Seeing Li Xinran's stunned and panicked expression, Lu Yi hurriedly whispered, "Don't speak, look at your current position." We were so confused by something that we almost opened the window. ”
Li Xinran nodded and took Lu Yi's hand away, and the two continued to retreat, the claws that were still scratching the glass also stopped at this time, and the two paw prints disappeared directly from the window.
"Are they gone?" Li Xinran asked cautiously.
"Maybe." Lu Yi seemed a little hesitant, but then he added, "This town is not small either, if there were such things all over the streets late at night, it should have attracted attention a long time ago, there must be a group of such monsters wandering around the town now." ”
Li Xinran nodded with a bright eye, "Then they should go somewhere else." ”
Lu Yi was always uneasy in his heart for some reason, thinking of the face in the illusion, Lu Yi was sure that he had never seen that kind of thing, and he felt that kind of thing really saw him just now.
As if to confirm Lu Yi's conjecture, a black shadow resembling an ape quickly magnified on the window, and then slammed into the glass, and the window made a loud noise under the impact, and then another black shadow collided.
Lu Yi hissed, he felt Li Xinran's nails digging into his flesh, Li Xinran asked tremblingly, "Haven't they left yet?" ”
The roof leak happened to rain overnight, and in the continuous impact of the black shadows, a large network crack appeared in the glass.
"Let's go." Lu Yi let out a low snort and pulled Li Xinran back.
Bang, there was another crashing sound, and the glass suddenly caved into the room to imprint the outline of the monster, and the sound of glass falling to the ground kept ringing.
"Ahh Li Xinran finally couldn't help but scream.
Just when Lu Yi thought that the two of them would be pounced on by the monster, thin white lines appeared in the glass, and they intertwined with each other, turning into a strong fishing net to trap the monster.
Lu Yi understood at this moment, there are really monsters in this town, so many doors and windows shops on the road are all born in response, and the previous piercing sound of scraping glass must have some kind of power,
It doesn't work when you're awake, and once you're asleep, the sound can make you fall into a hallucination, and you'll be killed.
This is why there are earplugs in a conspicuous position in the convenience store, and all the strange phenomena that Lu Yi saw before are all changes made by this town to adapt to the environment.
However, it was too late to figure it out.
"Let's go." Lu Yi dragged Li Xinran, who was a little weak, to the door.
Li Xinran looked back and saw that some thin white lines had begun to break under the collision of the monster.
Lu Yi threw the door open and threw Li Xinran directly outside the room, just after doing this, the white net finally couldn't hold on anymore and shattered, and the white light also dimmed in an instant.
The monster roared, and the two claws of the man's hand were long and grabbed at the back of the landing game.
