Chapter 251: The Coffin (2nd Watch)

In the depths of the haunted house, a wooden house stands quietly, with a pair of couplets on both sides of the door, white paper and red blood written in blood, and lanterns hanging in front of the door, as if the wind is blowing and gently shaking.

The whole exterior looked shabby and gloomy, dim and unsettling, with a sense of dead and dreary appearance, and the wooden door was lightly touched with your hand, and the fingertips were full of dust.

I observed for a while, then turned my head to look around, and after making sure that there was no other way to go around, I said: "It seems that the designer of this haunted house has a very obvious intention, there is no other way to go around, and it is possible to get out only by passing through here." ”

Yang Xiaoxiao was a little scared, grabbed me tightly, and asked suspiciously: "Why does the hanging lantern move by itself?" ”

I looked up and saw that the lanterns on both sides of the door frame were indeed swaying gently, but there was no wind blowing around, at least not in the haunted house, and I didn't know why they were moving, as if someone was fiddling with them.

Seeing this, my brother walked over and held the lantern with his hand, and then it stopped shaking and hung quietly there.

"Don't be afraid, let's go." My brother stretched out his hand to push open the wooden door, it was estimated that it had been a long time, and the wooden door "creaked", which was extremely harsh around the silence.

The dust on it shook off and lit it with a mobile phone, and the dust floated in the air.

As soon as I opened the door, there was a pitch-black coffin facing the door, and a black-and-white photo stood above the coffin, but what made people feel strange was that the portrait in this photo was very blurry, as if it was deliberately not taken clearly when taking the picture, and only a face could barely be seen.

Wreaths were placed on both sides of the coffin, many candles were thrown in half on the ground, and at the other end of the coffin head, a half-burned candle was placed.

The whole room is very small, only this one coffin, flanked by things for the dead, giving people a creepy feeling.

We walked in cautiously, and when we came to the mourning hall, my brother hesitated for a moment, and suddenly tapped the coffin lightly with his fingers.

"Knock knock!" There were a few heavy sounds, which made people's hearts beat faster, and he frowned and looked at me: "There should be no one in this coffin, right?" ”

I shook my head and said I didn't know, but thought for a moment and said, "Let's find a way out quickly, this place makes people feel very uneasy." ”

My brother nodded, and started looking around for a way out.

Since it is a haunted house, there is a way to get in, and there will definitely be an out.

The room is not big, except for the door, there are three walls, and the walls are very clean, there is nothing.

The three of us were each responsible for finding a side, and I looked around on the right, looking for all the places on the wall that could be turned over, and even thought of the secret door, and pressed against the wall for a long time, but I couldn't find a place to leave.

Looking back at my brother and Yang Xiaoxiao, they also didn't find anything.

"Is this haunted house a dead end? How could there be no place to leave? When I saw this, I wondered, "Could it be that we are in the wrong place?" ”

"Could it be... What are we missing? Yang Xiaoxiao suddenly reminded on the side: "I have played similar haunted houses with my friends before, and after entering, many places have to rely on themselves to find clues to find the way out, will the haunted house here be like this..."

"Clues?" When I heard her say this, I thought it was possible, so I hurriedly looked around, but this time, I was even more puzzled: "But what kind of clue is it?" There are no hints in this haunted house, how to find it? ”

Push open the door, suddenly there is a coffin, there is no hint outside, the decoration in the room is very simple, I can't see anything that looks like a clue, how can people find it?

My brother and I looked everywhere and found nothing.

At this time, Yang Xiaoxiao suddenly said as if she had made a discovery: "Will the clue be... On the coupling outside the door? ”

She seems to be more experienced in scouting for clues than my brother and me.

After being reminded by her, I hurriedly went out of the house and came to the door to see the couplet: the colorful shed was built in the fairy cave, and the flowers and candles shone like tears.

"Shed, fairy cave? What does it mean? I muttered, and my mind began to think quickly: "Flower candles... Is it a candle? What is that fountain of tears? ”

I looked back into the room, trying to find something.

"The colorful shed may refer to this house, and the fairy cave is likely to be the mourning hall." Yang Xiaoxiao also walked out, looked at the couplet and analyzed: "I think the important thing is in the second half of the sentence, the flower candle is a candle as the name suggests, and it brings tears to it, does it mean that you want to shine on something?" ”

As soon as she analyzed this, I suddenly had a feeling of surprise, stood next to her and looked at her in surprise, gave a thumbs up, and praised: "Okay, you, I didn't see it, I always looked scared to death before, but I didn't expect to be able to reason, who did you learn this from?" ”

She was a little embarrassed by my compliment, and said, "I learned from books... I usually like to watch reasoning. ”

"There is a golden house in the book, and there is Yan Ruyu in the book." My brother answered in the room and said, "That's why you should read more, and at critical moments, you still need to rely on knowledge." ”

The two of us praised on the left and praised on the right, Yang Xiaoxiao was completely embarrassed, and hurriedly waved her hand and said, "No, no... It's not as good as you say..."

"Don't be modest, you've done a great job." My brother praised as he lit the candle on the coffin with a lighter, and wondered, "Have you ever thought of a question, the flowers and candles are shining with tears, whose tears are these tears?" ”

We were all stunned when he asked, looking at each other and looking at each other, not knowing what it meant.

As they spoke, the candles had been lit, and faint flames slowly rose, flickering in the darkness, illuminating a small area in front of them.

After lighting the candles, my brother took a step back beside the coffin and waited for it to happen.

Yang Xiaoxiao and I walked in from the outside, stood next to my brother, looked at the burning candles, and our hearts rose.

But as a result, I waited for a long time, and there was no movement.

"It's just an ordinary candle!" My brother waited for a while, but when he didn't react, he became impatient: "I'm such a fool that I would believe the riddles and clues in it!" ”

As he spoke, he reached out to take off the candle, but just as his hand touched the candle, suddenly there was a strange cry in the coffin.

Immediately afterwards, the coffin lid "slammed", as if it was pressed up by something, and pouted up.

My brother's face changed suddenly, and he hurriedly stepped back, and the candle fell from the coffin, fell to the ground, and lit the wreath around it with a "suddenly" sound.

The flames were burning all around, and I was busy trying to put out the fire, but at this moment, a "bang" sound suddenly came from the coffin, as if someone was knocking on the sides of the coffin inside.

The voice was dull and slow, but it sounded unusually clear, and as it continued to come out, the lid of the coffin began to lift up from time to time.

Seeing this, my brother immediately pounced on him without saying a word, pressed the coffin lid with his body, gritted his teeth and said, "You still want to run out?!" ”

The coffin was held down, and the sound began to become urgent, as if in a hurry.

"Bang bang bang! Bang bang bang! ”

The lid of the coffin was pressed down by my brother, and he looked like he wanted to lift it, but he couldn't.

The wreath burned very fast, and the fire was so fierce that before I could extinguish it, it had already set fire to the wooden door frame, and the flames were scurrying upwards and spreading in all directions, growing larger and larger.

"The fire is too big! Can't be extinguished! Seeing this, I was so anxious that I hurriedly said to my brother, "Hurry up!" Get out of here first! ”

When my brother saw that the fire was getting bigger and bigger, he didn't bother to press the coffin again, so he hurriedly jumped down and ran out.

The three of us walked side by side, but before we could reach the door, we suddenly saw a tall black figure standing outside the wooden door!

The man seemed to have something in his hand and blocked the door.

When I saw this figure, the whole person was stunned, my heart instantly lifted, and I was busy preparing to use a cat's eye to see who this person was, but before I could see it clearly, it suddenly reached out and slammed the door shut!

Immediately after, there was a sound of locking the door!

"Locked?!" My brother was shocked when he saw this, and hurriedly ran over to pull the door hard, and there were a few "clangs", only the sound of the lock shaking outside the door.

The fire in the house was getting bigger and bigger, and the door couldn't be opened, so I was so anxious that my scalp was numb when I saw this, and I hurriedly said, "Brother! Let me! ”

As he spoke, he picked up his axe and went to chop, and with a "bang", the axe struck the door and cut through a plank.

As soon as this was cut, Yang Xiaoxiao's frightened cry came from the side: "Coffin... The coffin is open! ”
