Volume 3 The Forbidden Place Chapter 65 The Truth Twenty Years Ago
"Guan Chengran.... Where are you, please come out and see you! ”
Xu Lang's calm voice echoed in the quiet corridor, and Nameless and the others looked around, but they didn't see any figures at all.
There was a ghostly light in the nameless eyes, staring closely at the surroundings, he still trusted Xu Lang's wisdom, this method seemed to be very sure of him, but now that a few minutes had passed, why did Guan Chengran still not appear.
Xu Lang waited quietly for a while, frowning, it stands to reason that the mirror should be able to transmit his words to Guan Chengran's space, why didn't he show up?
Then his mind moved: "Guan Chengran, you don't have to be afraid, we have no malicious intentions, we just want to leave here, please appear." ”
But the only thing that responded to Xu Lang was the echo in the corridor and the boundless silence.
Zhu Zixing looked at Xu Lang and whispered, "Brother Xu, are you sure?" We're running out of time. ”
Xu Lang didn't care about him, thinking about what was going on. He really couldn't guess what the mentality of a person who had been separated for many years and had never seen a living person would be, and it was really not a simple matter to call him out.
Since good words can't persuade him, then force him out!
Then Xu Lang's tone began to become cold, and he said to the mirror, "What do you want to hide?" You've seen those things since you were a child, you've seen the tragic death of your mother, the mutation of your father, do you still want to live like this? ”
"If that's the case, you can continue to hide and face nothing like a coward!"
"This ......" Nameless and the others didn't expect Xu Lang's language to be so intense, and they couldn't help but be a little worried in their hearts, what if Guan Cheng was scolded and angry and never appeared again?
Of course, Xu Lang has his thoughts about doing this. Although he couldn't imagine what Guan Chengran's state of mind was, the events of that year must be indelible for a child whose mind is not yet mature.
Xu Lang understands this feeling, because he has almost the same experience as Guan Chengran, and he completely understands that what people like them are most afraid of is bringing up old things. Once someone pokes you in the sore spot, so many years of disguised indifference will be torn apart, and there will be nowhere to hide helplessness, anger, and excitement.
When Xu Lang said these words, he felt uncomfortable, and he once again remembered himself back then.
After saying these words, Xu Lang did not open his mouth to persuade again, but put the mirror on the ground and waited quietly.
When Nameless and the others saw Xu Lang's move, they seemed to be able to feel his confidence in this move, and they were not worried about whether Guan Chengran could appear, and they glanced at each other for a while, not knowing what they were thinking.
It wasn't long before a sudden, hoarse-voiced, somewhat incoherent voice rang out around the executor.
"You... You, for... Why are you here? ”
This sentence suddenly sounded around the executor, and immediately frightened everyone, and Nameless hurriedly prepared vigilantly, staring around with round eyes.
Because, there was nothing around them, and there was not half a figure at all!
But the sound came from near them.
For a while, everyone was a little flustered, and human beings instinctively had a fear of the unknown.
However, Xu Lang walked out of the crowd first, and picked up the mirror on the ground and put it in his hand.
"Don't panic, we can't see him with the naked eye, we can only use mirrors."
At this point, Xu Lang had long thought that he clearly knew that Guan Chengran was a person who belonged to another space, but he had the particularity of spanning two spaces, although he had no way of knowing why, but at least he understood that Guan Chengran could communicate with them.
After all, the purpose of the executor is only to ask Guan Chengran what happened back then and find a way out.
And this method of seeing Guan Chengran is also very simple, you can find his location by scanning it with a mirror. This can be inferred from the scene of the freezer door of the refrigerator room at that time.
Before, Xu Lang asked others to pay attention to the surroundings, not to ask them to find Guan Chengran, but to be vigilant around, if Guan Chengran's temperament changed drastically, and suddenly attacked, he could be blocked with his nameless skills.
Xu Lang took the flashlight in Zhu Zixing's hand and shone it on the dark mirror, reflecting a beam of yellow light and beginning to illuminate the front, Xu Lang held the mirror and began to slowly put it in front of him, while scanning around, while looking at the scene in the mirror.
Sure enough, when I turned half a circle, I found a middle-aged man in a tattered suit, with hair and beard covering most of his face, and a decadent face appeared in the mirror.
At this time, he was also looking at himself, his eyes were very complicated, Xu Lang stared at it for a long time, and read a trace of excitement and relief from it!
Seeing this, Xu Lang smiled heartily and whispered, "I finally found you." ”
Everyone looked down at the mirror, their eyes showing surprise, and then looked up to compare the empty corridor in front of them, and sighed that it was amazing.
Hearing Guan Chengran in front of him, he said, "I warned you a long time ago, but in the end you were known by him." ”
It can be seen that although Guan Chengran lives here alone, he has not lost his ability to speak, and he has not spoken to a living person for a long time, although he does not talk much, but his tone reveals a trace of excitement.
Xu Lang is in a good mood, the current situation is gradually improving, the evil spirit old man, that is, Guan Mu, should not appear for the time being, now is the best time to get clues.
"Is he your father?"
Guan Chengran in the mirror, his eyes showed a burst of pain, and he said in a wistful tone: "Yes, that old man is my father, Guan Mu!" ”
Sure enough, although everyone was basically sure in their hearts, they still couldn't help but be shocked when they were recognized at this time, Zhu Zixing quietly asked: "Why, his age doesn't seem to match the passage of time?" What really happened back then? ”
Zhu Zixing took the lead in asking this question that had troubled the executors for a long time.
Guan Chengran sighed and said slowly: "In the past twenty years, I always remember that day. ”
"More than 20 years ago, our family was very happy, although I was still young, I could see that my family was very rich, my parents respected each other, and I lived a carefree life.
Until one day, my parents brought back a huge standing mirror from outside!
It was that evil mirror that changed our family! ”
Everyone could hear the anger and remorse in Guan Chengran's tone, his fists clenched tightly in the mirror, but no one interrupted him, and they all tacitly listened to him continue to tell the story of the year.
"Although I didn't understand what was so special about this mirror at the time, my parents loved it very much, especially since my father brought the mirror home, he often used to hold a magnifying glass to observe the lines of the frame little by little, and once said to my mother and me, 'This kind of texture will be a great inspiration for his paintings'."
Perhaps because of his obsession with art, my father placed the mirror in the lobby on the first floor, so that he could do research even while eating.
Until one day, I also went to play in front of the mirror out of curiosity, and in my eyes it was just an ordinary mirror, with a purple and black frame and some beautiful patterns on it.
However, just as I was approaching the mirror, I saw a man with a rotten body and a hideous face, rushing at me from the mirror, and I was so frightened that I immediately sat on the ground and cried loudly.
I told my parents what I had seen, but my father scolded me in an unprecedentedly cold tone, because my parents had a big fight over it.
As a result, things began to get out of place, and my father used to sit in front of the mirror for a day, doing nothing, just looking at the mirror.
I don't study the lines anymore, I just look in the mirror so simply, sit in front of the mirror at dawn every day, stay until 12 o'clock at midnight, and go back to the room on time to sleep.
He didn't speak, he didn't eat, and the whole person seemed to be crazy, as if there was something in the mirror that attracted him, completely contrary to human instinct. ”
The executors glanced at each other, and they all saw the horror of each other in their eyes, but they didn't expect the mirror to be so evil.
In the days that followed, no matter how much my mother tried to persuade him, he could not bring him back to his senses. So every time I cooked, I could only make some porridge and forcibly feed it to my father.
And just a few days later, one night, out of curiosity, I went out of the room to see what my father was doing.
However, when I was quietly hiding behind, I could hear my father talking!
I couldn't hear what he was talking to, and when I looked at it, I saw that my father was actually communicating with the horrible man in the mirror!
I don't know what they were talking about, but then I heard my father laugh like crazy, and I still feel creepy when I think back about it, and the laughter was the most terrible sound I've ever heard, crazy, terrifying, full of fear and excitement.
After that, my father began to change again, as if he was back to his old state, he could eat and live with us, and even play with me.
We both thought that my father was finally getting better, and my mother and I were very beginning. At that time, it was approaching the Chinese New Year, and my father proposed to invite more friends to the party.
But after that, something terrible happened!
One by one, relatives and friends disappeared alive in front of our family's eyes, and I could see with my own eyes the madness in my father's eyes when those people disappeared.
Until my aunt, my mother's own sister, disappeared as well, only this time we finally saw where those people had gone.
It was simply dragged into the mirror of the hall by a dark shadow!
Xu Lang frowned and said, "But what does this have to do with your father?" ”
"My father...... After a person disappears, the wrinkles on his face suddenly increase overnight, and there are many gray hairs, and the whole person is much older.
A man in his thirties looks the same as he is in his fifties!
All this was blamed by the mother for being a mirror troublemaker, so she begged her father to throw away the mirror, but at first her father did not agree, and then her mother begged hard before her father threw it away.
However, if you throw it today, it will appear in the lobby on the first floor tomorrow.
Later, my mother tried her best to destroy the mirror, but to no avail.
And all this, my father just watched coldly, without the slightest panic, as if he had expected it a long time ago! ”
