Volume 1 The Resentful Spirit of the Mansion Chapter 7 Snatching the Way of Life

Inside the Kyomei Building, which was as quiet as a pool of stagnant water, a roar suddenly came out, like a stone smashing down on the water, and the silence of the entire building was broken by this sound.

At this time, an evil spirit on the 15th floor of the top floor was rotting and smelling of corpses around it, and when it heard this sound, it slowly lowered its head, and its head and body showed a strange angle, while maggots continued to fall to the ground and roll.

The evil spirit noticed the direction of the 8th floor, as if because he had finally found the traces of the living person, the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, revealing a cruel smile, and he ran towards the staircase with a speed unimaginable to humans.

And the two living people on the balcony on the 8th floor show a strange balance.

Gu Lei was about to use violent means to maim Xu Lang for the sacrifice of the pen immortal, so as to escape from the building, who knew that Xu Lang actually shouted in an attempt to attract evil spirits, which was unexpected to him, in his opinion, Xu Lang seemed to be crazy, and he resorted to the same end.

He was also not sure to complete the pen immortal ritual before the evil spirit came, and he wanted to run but was a little unwilling, if Xu Lang died, then he really couldn't think of any way to get out alive.

And Xu Lang on the other side was also a little bottomless in his heart, he shouted to attract evil spirits, naturally he was a little sure, he was betting that the evil spirits would attack Gu Lei first, the reason was very simple, this evil spirit was Hao Ming, and he had a grudge against Gu Lei.

If this revenge-like causal relationship is true, then Xu Lang has a conjecture about the way to live, but the risk is too great, almost gambling on his life.

So the two of them had their own ghosts and scruples, and for a while, neither of them chose to leave.

In less than two minutes, the two people on the balcony suddenly shivered for a while, the cold invaded their bodies from the outside and inside, and a faint stench came from the other end of the corridor.

Gu Lei and Xu Lang's faces were tight, at this moment both sides understood that the evil spirit was in the dark corridor not far away, no one dared to move, and even held their breath, although this way had no effect, but the survival instinct of human beings forced them to do so.

The two of them were leaning against each end of the balcony, keeping the farthest distance from each other, and if one was attacked, the other would have a chance to survive.

No one dared to look out, but listening to the voice, they knew that the evil spirit was approaching, but it was not a sprint, but it was coming step by step.

The sound of "tap, tap" footsteps gradually became clear, and the evil spirit was gradually approaching, as if the countdown to life was ringing for the two people in the balcony. The evil spirits did not rush at once and tear them apart, but enjoyed the beauty of the pre-death period to the extreme.

Fear, for evil spirits, is the most delicious dessert before killing.

Finally, the disgusting smell of corpses enveloped the small balcony, and a head came out into the balcony, it was a face full of maggots and almost no flesh, the eye socket was deeply sunken, and the right eyeball had fallen to the side of the nose, only a black tendon was connected, and it shook straight in front of the face with the action of the evil spirit.

Xu Lang was on the right side of the balcony, his body was pressed against the bare wall, holding his breath, staring at the head of the evil spirit, this was the first time he really looked at an evil spirit so closely, even when he was in Villa 13.

In his right pocket, the hand holding the handle of the knife trembled slightly, but it was firmly grasped in the palm of his hand, and he might pull it out the next moment.

Gu Lei on the left is even worse than Xu Lang, close contact with the true body of the evil spirit, almost frightened, he even can't control his body, he wants to run away immediately, and quickly leave this small balcony.

The body of the evil spirit did not enter the balcony, but only stuck its head in, the exit of the balcony is not big, as long as the evil spirit is blocked, the two of them will be attacked immediately if they want to rush out, and the evil spirit can tear their limbs apart in an instant.

After a few seconds of stalemate, the evil spirit's legs took a step forward, and half of his body entered the balcony, Xu Lang's eyes sank when he saw this, because the evil spirit was walking with his right foot, which meant blocking Xu Lang's exit, but giving up half of Gu Lei's exit.

His face began to turn pale, could it be that my speculation was wrong, Hao Ming, this evil spirit, attacked indiscriminately? No priority at all?

Then, the evil spirit's face began to slowly turn to the right, staring at Xu Lang, less than half a meter away, Xu Lang could even smell the fishy smell exhaled from the evil spirit's mouth, and the right hand holding the knife handle gradually relaxed.

"I'm really going to die this time, I didn't expect that I, who was begging for the traces of evil spirits, couldn't even pass the first mission......" Xu Lang laughed self-deprecatingly, he understood that his 27-year life had come to an end today.

Just when Xu Lang was about to give up and wait for death, Gu Lei on the left was ecstatic in his heart after seeing the evil spirit act like this,

"God really helps me, Xu Lang should be unlucky. Hao Ming, Hao Ming, I smashed your face back then, which caused you to look dead now, but I didn't expect you to make a move on me at the critical moment. ”

Gu Lei immediately made a decision, looking at the half of the way out left by the evil spirit, and was about to rush out of the balcony with a kick, but at the same time as rushing out, his right leg was violently pulled by a strange force, and he immediately lost his center of gravity and fell to the ground.

Xu Lang, who was waiting for death on the side, watched this scene, the evil spirit in front of him still had his face facing him, but his left hand was clutched on Gu Lei's leg!

"My guess is right, this evil spirit will really attack those four people first," Looking at Gu Lei, who was struggling to the ground, Xu Lang once again clenched the knife in his pocket, he was ready to take the fire and seize the way of life!

From the series of actions of this evil spirit, Xu Lang finally determined the way to survive this mission.

At first, when Xu Lang entered the building, he found a bunch of messy footprints on the ground, and he was sure that a group of people had entered the building in advance, and firmly believed that this group of people was the clue given by the newspaper.

Therefore, every action Xu Lang made was to find this group of people, that is, the four people in the photo, and ask for key information.

But in fact, this is the huge trap that the mission gives! Analyzing the experience of many tasks, Xu Lang preconceived judgment that the appearance of these four people must have clues to complete the task, so he desperately searched, approached, and constantly mixed in the causal relationship between the evil spirit and the four people.

As long as you contact any of the four people, it is equivalent to indirectly participating in the revenge of the evil spirit, and it will become an opportunity to be chased and killed by the evil spirit, which is a dead end set for the psychology of employees who actively pursue clues.

From the moment Xu Lang entered the building, his mind and consciousness were completely played with by the newspaper's tasks, and even the appearance of the ghost hitting the wall was also restricted by the rules of the newspaper, and Xu Lang couldn't attack him before he touched the four people and didn't trigger the dead end, so he could only use the ghost to hit the wall to trap Xu Lang, instead of shooting directly.

Therefore, the way to survive this mission is actually very simple, that is, to enter the building and do nothing, and wait until the time is over to submit a report and return.

When Xu Lang heard Gu Lei state what happened twelve years ago, he had a certain conjecture about this way of life, but it was too late, but when Gu Lei wanted to do it to himself, he had a guess about another way of life.

This is also his grasp of attracting evil spirits, as long as the evil spirits are the first to attack Gu Lei, then there is room for maneuver, that is, to make amends,

let Gu Lei's life die in his own hands, let the evil spirit know that he did not interfere with his behavior, and even helped him find Gu Lei's traces.

Putting an end to the evil spirit's revenge with your own hands is the second way to live.

In fact, if the evil spirit kills all the four people before they make a move, it is also a perfect way to complete the task, but not to mention that it is too difficult to operate, and even in terms of time, it can't be done, because these four people entered the building with Xu Lang first.

Xu Lang is more than ninety percent sure of this second way of life, but he is still a little nervous, after all, he wants to kill Gu Lei first from the hands of the evil spirit, the difficulty is not small, in case the first blow does not cut off the breath, but is then killed by the evil spirit, but Xu Lang can only wait for death on the spot.

At this time, Gu Lei on the ground was desperate with some incomprehension, he didn't understand why the evil spirit was already ready to make a move on Xu Lang but turned to attack him, but it was too late, he watched the evil spirit pull his legs with both hands, tearing it fiercely, like a piece of paper, easily torn off.

Gu Lei, who lost his legs, screamed miserably, no one could accept such a way of death, the blood had already covered the ground under him, and he was dazed and now he just wanted the evil spirit to give him a good time.

But at this moment, a fruit knife suddenly plunged into his throat, and by the moonlight, the knife was extremely dazzling, Gu Lei was reflected in Xu Lang's firm face before he died, and Gu Lei, who was constantly spitting blood, had a hint of relief in his eyes, and died.

Xu Lang confirmed that Gu Lei was dead, pulled out the knife, and fled towards the stairs, not looking at the movements of the evil spirit behind him, because he had read the mission report, and if he found a way to solve the task in advance, a prompt would automatically appear in his mind.

But adhering to the principle of prudence and no mistakes, Xu Lang still sprinted at full speed, leaving the 8th floor where the evil spirit was located, and instead of going down, he used reverse thinking, and came to the staircase on the 10th floor to wait for the task prompt.

However, after about five minutes, Xu Lang didn't wait for the cold and mechanical sound in his head, and at this moment, a "tapping" footstep sounded under the stairs, and there was even a "ticking" sound of blood hitting the ground.

Xu Lang was like falling into an ice cave, his whole heart sank, he glanced at his watch, there were still fifteen minutes left before the end of the task, but the footsteps downstairs were still ringing, urging him to move up, Xu Lang's death may be a foregone conclusion.
