Chapter 10 Resentment
In the middle of the night, a small hill on the east side of the town slowly melted into the twilight, and the pavilion in the forest gradually darkened.
The abandoned ruins that sit on a hill have long since been bulldozed, and an elaborate pavilion has been built on the site. There are stone benches on both sides of the pavilion, and there are several stone tables in the middle, and the smooth table tops are painted with chessboards of chess and Go, which looks like a unique decoration.
Standing in the pavilion and looking out, through the pine trees by the river, you can see the estuary not far away.
The sound of the water is murmuring, empty and quiet, which can be described as leisurely.
In spring and summer, when there are many tourists, this place is quite lively, and many tourists like to come here in the middle of the night to enjoy the scenery. But in winter, the pavilion is much more desolate. There are no people to enjoy the scenery, no birdsong in the woods, and no squirrels that come out from time to time to beg for food.
As night fell, a black mist was slowly spilling out of the dark earth under the pavilion. Wisps of wisps rose from the cracks in the ground. The black mist gradually enveloped the entire pavilion, and the strong resentment imprinted the cyan stone slab with pitch-black magic patterns. The black mist rose up, forming a grimace in the air, ethereal, and even colder around.
At this moment, the pavilion is not quiet, and there is an eerie loneliness throughout the body.
Around the gazebo, the woods seem to be quieter. The insects burrowing in the snow, the squirrels wintering in the tree holes, the wild boars still foraging, all the creatures stopped moving, trembling uneasily, but they did not move.
If someone bulldozed the gazebo and dug three feet into the ground, he would be surprised to find out...... The stone slab engraved with the strange talisman had cracked, and wisps of black mist continued to emerge from the cracks in the stone tablet.
"Damn, damn it...... You all deserve ...... damned."
Gradually, gradually...... Something strange seemed to emerge from the black mist! A pair of scarlet points of light moved with the mist, slowly drifting towards the town that had merged into Fenghua City.
"You all deserve to die!"
After leaving the Xiaoshan Temple yesterday, Xiao Rin did not follow her mother home, but went directly to the Yi family's mansion with Yi Yue. Recently, she has spent more time with her family, so she decisively chose to stay at Yue's house. Of course, Xiao Rin had a good phone call with his mother, otherwise...... Hmph, she'll be dead when she comes home!
The next afternoon, Xiao Rin, who had been tired of following the moon all day, finally went home.
As soon as he entered the house, his tired father came over: "Rin, something strange happened to one of Dad's investments recently, you can go and see it in the afternoon." I always felt that there was something strange going on there. ”
Xiao Rin agreed, and then asked curiously: "Dad, what have you been doing recently, isn't the company good?"
"That's right, a partner from other places wants to open a leisure hotel in our place, in order to calm his heart, Dad also invested a lot of money, and it was originally quite smooth, but recently the staff in the hotel have fainted with several unknown reasons. In response to Rin's question, Xiao Zhen explained: "Alas, Lao Huang has now closed the hotel for a few days under the pretext of suspending business for rectification, but there is no way to go on like this." ”
"What's the condition of those who fainted?"
Xiao Zhen sighed: "This is also a strange place, these fainted people can't find anything wrong after they are sent to the hospital." ”
"That's right...... I'll change my clothes and go, by the way, does Dad know any useful news?"
After thinking for a while, Xiao Zhen said in a tone that was not very sure: "Hmm...... It seems that I have heard your Uncle Huang talk about it, saying that most of the construction team invited to build the hotel last time has already entered the hospital, and the condition is the same, and all of them are unconscious. I think I'm not mistaken......"
After simply changing into a beige coat, Xiao Rin left home with his father.
......
Coming to the Qingxi Hotel, Xiao Rin looked up at the house, and then frowned.
It's not normal, this slightly old-fashioned hotel is different.
She squinted, and her normal vision reversed. Yin and yang, reversed in an instant.
"Resentment!"
In front of her eyes, the ordinary house suddenly changed, and the aura of resentment that was as black as ink was wafting out from the house! The huge volume stretched out like tentacles, wrapping around the house, like a cage.
Resentment is a very strong emotion compared to joy, anger and sorrow. Ordinary people's resentment may be just a simple inner emotion, but if a person's emotions are filled with resentment before death, and she is unwilling to swallow her last breath when she is dying, seven days after her death, the moment her soul is reunited, her resentment will be transformed into a special curse power, entangled in the person she resents.
But...... These resentments are not right!
Unlike the aura of resentment and curse, there is something strange in it.
"Dad, you go and inform the others to come out quickly, and you don't want to go in yourself!" Rin stopped his father who was about to enter, and after saying a word in a hurry, he rushed into the Qingxi Hotel.
The atmosphere in the hotel is very wrong!
There was not a single person, not even any movement...... By the time she stepped into the hall, several people dressed as waiters had collapsed on the floor, and there were still expressions of fear on their faces.
After a calm look, Xiao Rin turned around and walked towards the back hall, and several more people appeared along the way.
......There was a strange sound in the empty corridor, and in the inn that was not empty, the sound of the frame was echoing, as if it was blocked by something and reflected back. The voices gradually blended into a sense of panic and noise.
"Found you!"
Unaffected by the noise of the outside world, Rin spoke in a low voice and walked in one direction without restraint. Despite the thick black fog, these resentments had no ability to interfere with cause and effect, and the threads of cause and effect in the air were clear and unmistakable, condensed into a strand that pointed in the same direction.
Walk through the empty hallway, ending in a confined room.
The source of the sound is this room.
"What the hell are you?"
"Don't come...... Why, why are we here, we haven't offended you...... Don't come here!"
After Xiao Rin pushed open the door, he saw Mr. Huang and a person dressed as a manager shrinking in the corner of the room.
And not far in front of them, there was a shadow wrapped in dark resentment......
It was wrapped in thick black resentment, and it couldn't see the specific appearance, but those scarlet eyes unabashedly projected unforgettable resentment! "You deserve, die, you, deserve, deserve, deserve......"
The black shadow passed through the manager's body as Rin opened the door.
In Mr. Huang's frightened roar, it turned around in the midst of the resentment and quietly looked at Rin at the door.
“...... You damn it, you damn it, damn it, damn it, damn it..."The thing in the black mist didn't make any more movements, nor did it look for Mr. Huang, muttering to itself in place.
"What are you?" Rin looked at it, muttering to herself in a low and confused voice, "Ghost?... Although the grudge is heavy, it doesn't look like a ghost. Although the demon spirit is strong, the demon will not have such a strong grudge as you. Is it a simple grudge, a curse left behind? It's not right, there are too many targets...... You, what's it?"
"You all deserve to die, you all deserve to die......"
The shadow didn't seem to be conscious, it stayed in place, and only the words with a terrible curse never stopped.
Even ignoring Xiao Rin's questioning, it slowly flew towards the window.
"The sun shines on the sun. Seeing that it was about to leave, Rin directly sealed off this room, and the blue flames rose in the tiny sigils, sealing the room like a flame cage.
"You all deserve to die, you all deserve to die, you all deserve to die, you all deserve to die......," the black shadow passed through the blue flames, getting smaller and smaller...... If Xiao Rin hadn't finally collected the yang fire, that black shadow would definitely disappear completely...
Why?
Is this kind of thing unconscious?
Looking at the black shadow of resentment that continued to float outward, Rin suddenly pounced, his hand wrapped around the cyan thorns, trying to catch it directly. However, the black shadow of resentment entangled by thorns actually slowly disappeared...... Like a bubble in the sun, it disappears little by little.
It's not normal, what is this?
Whether it's a ghost or a youkai, you can't escape if you're entangled in the branches and leaves of Ruixian, this is ...... What?
"You deserve to die, you all deserve to die, you deserve to die, you all deserve to die...... It's all damned!!" There was a hideous curse left in the room, getting smaller and smaller, getting fainter and fainter.
The dirty thing disappeared, but Mr. Huang, who had witnessed all this, was still trembling, and the fear in his eyes became more and more intense. Whether it was the ghost fog just now or the girl's performance later, it broke the common sense he had established since childhood...... There are ghosts, there are ghosts in the world!!
......
It was almost afternoon after calming Mr. Huang, who was greatly frightened, and after some inquiry, the course of the matter became clear. When Mr. Huang and the manager arrived at the hotel, the others had already fallen to the ground, but they still walked into the hotel for some reason, and then the terrifying thing appeared in front of the two of them.
Several people hurriedly sent the unconscious employee and Manager Luo to the hospital.
There are not many employees who were victimized this time, and there are only five people including Manager Luo.
Xiao Zhen breathed a sigh of relief, he had discussed with Mr. Huang before to temporarily close the hotel and dismiss most of the employees, otherwise there would definitely be more than these few people who had an accident!
After the formalities in the middle of the night, Xiao Zhen chose to stay, and he asked Rin to send Mr. Huang back.
On the way out of the hospital, Xiao Rin asked in a low voice, "Uncle Huang, have you done anything wrong?" This kind of thing is obviously driven by resentment, if there is no target of resentment, it will not appear. ”
"No, not really. Grabbing his hair in pain, Mr. Huang roared in a low voice: "I have just come here for a short time, where can I do anything wrong." Besides, even if I did, the rest of the people couldn't do it. ”
“...... Alas, that's right, too. ”
"How's Xiao Luo?"
"He's fine, but he's not waking up yet. Spreading his hands helplessly, Xiao Rin continued: "His soul was thrown into a strange place, if I want to forcibly pull his soul out, it's not impossible, but if I forcibly pull it back like this, it's still quite troublesome." ”
"Does that mean he won't be in danger now!" Mr. Huang raised his head and looked at Xiao Rin expectantly.
Xiao Luo is the person introduced by Xiao Zhen, if something happens, he has no face to face Xiao Zhen.
"No, not really. Shaking his head, Xiao Rin continued to explain: "There will be no danger in the short term, but I don't know the environment of his soul yet...... If the general environment is fine, but if it is an extreme environment, I think I can survive for a week at most with the strength of an ordinary person's soul. ”
"If it takes a long time, their souls will crumble. ”
"That is...... Will you die?"
"Hmm. ”
