Chapter 35: Visual Afterimage

The place of death of Bai Dasen, the director of the old soap factory, was in the house on the sixth floor, and the appraisal report given after his death was that Bai Dasen died of a sudden heart attack!

"He had heart medicine with him, but he didn't take it, but he didn't see anything strange in the death evaluation." Tang Lin reminded me of a few elements.

I looked up at the staircase and the rooftop above, thinking about everything I could think of.

An old man with a heart attack, when he comes to a haunted house that is rumored to have a curse, once he sees something messy, it is indeed easy to cause a heart attack.

"In other words, something may have appeared and scared Bai Dasen!"

"You said it could be those blood shadows!"

Tang Lin said, and looked around vigilantly.

It can't be out of nowhere! Something must be wrong! But what can be done to explain the presence of these blood shadows? The group of workers did stay overnight, and the time when Bai Dasen arrived was almost dusk. In other words, the timing we have come to today is actually inaccurate. Therefore, we can only record the environment temporarily and transfer it back to the computer. Of course, soon, Tang Lin and I made a crazy decision, and she and I decided to stay here.

"You're crazy!" Xu Jiaqi, who was still outside, roared loudly on the phone, "You're really not afraid of hell." ”

"We're here to look for ghosts, so we're not afraid to see them. Judging from the situation of the room that Tang Lin and I know so far, we can't find out more during the day, so we can only do it at night. ”

The things that have been decided cannot be changed, Tang Lin and I prepared a little things for the night, and then prepared for the arrival of the night. Of course, people from outside will follow up on their faith as planned, and at the same time keep in touch with us.

For a better observation, Tang Lin and I chose to be in a small room on the fourth floor. As night fell, she and I lay on the floor.

The faint light in the building can't support enough light, and the power has been out for a long time, so we can appreciate this kind of world without bright colors.

Tang Lin and I decided to take turns on duty and not miss a single detail. Of course, in fact, I have already decided that even if it is the time when Tang Lin is on duty, I will try to get through it.

The Red Mansion is indeed very yin, in Tang Lin's words, at night, not only is it cold, but it also gives people a chill, there is always an impulse to feel something.

Whew, a strange sound came, and Tang Lin and I sat up at the same time.

It's not windy outside? Why is there a rumor?

"It must be caused by the special structure between the floors." Tang Lin said, "When these old buildings were designed, they didn't give too much consideration to the urban wind factor. And once it is idle, a little wind and grass will have a certain impact. ”

I asked rhetorically: "Most of the urban wind is formed between high-rise buildings, and this kind of low floor, it is possible, but it is not very likely." ”

Tang Lin snorted: "So I've been saying that this building is indeed strange." ”

Odd~! Hey, what's weird. I touched the walls, I couldn't sleep anyway, and when it was night, I decided to go for a walk. Of course, Tang Lin couldn't stay here alone, she, like me, continued to take a look at the building as I continued.

It is indeed a completely different time to look at this building during the day, and the Red House at night, because of the insufficient light, does have many misunderstandings in visual choices. Even in your eyes, there will be all sorts of mistakes. I am more and more convinced that the so-called blood shadow of the Red Chamber may be just an illusion. Of course, the premise is that the factors that form the blood shadow must be found.

"It's so dark!" When we came to the dressing room on the third floor, Tang Lin and I sighed even more.

"Hey, look what this is!" Tang Lin pointed to the colored paper below.

This dormitory building has been abandoned for a long time, and many things from the old soap factory are stored inside. I picked it up, and the colors were so colorful, and when I saw the red paper, my mind froze.

Similarly, Tang Lin seemed to have something in mind.

"Brother Liang, you say, is the so-called blood shadow really an after-view image?"

"There are various analyses of haunted houses on the Internet, and because very few people have come in directly, there is not much analysis of the aftersight, and a lot of it focuses on hallucinations! However, given the environment in which we are now, it is true that the afterimage is the most likely. ”

Retrooptic is a physiological and psychological concept, and the excitement that occurs in the optical stimulation analyzer does not disappear with the cessation of the stimulus, but lasts for a certain period of time after the stimulus has stopped. In other words, if the group of workers were to spend the night in a haunted house, they would receive a lot of blood-red light stimulation at night. Well, they're in the visual analyzer, and the blood-red image will stay there for a while. At this time, for example, it has just arrived in the early morning, and some workers have not fully awakened their brains, and when they see something shaking, they will feel that the thing is still blood red.

This explains why all that everyone sees is a blood-red shadow!

"Maybe it's that the shadows they see may not be the same color, but because they've all been stimulated by the blood-red color before, they've always had blood-red vision. However, where do we find such a strong blood-red light source stimulus? ”

Tang Lin and I were very excited about the inspiration we suddenly found, but we haven't found the prerequisites for this inspiration yet. Because just these blood-red colored papers in the ground cannot produce a large-scale blood-red afterimage of that group of workers.

"But the good thing is that we know for sure now that things are different at night and during the day."

"Yes, it's very dim at night, and because the building is relatively old, it's easy to have all kinds of coincidences, so it's right that we stay." I motioned for Tang Lin to continue to follow and discover new clues.

Here, we are careful every step of the way, because, we don't know, when something terrible will appear.

It's just that when we shift our focus to the rear view, the source of color becomes a headache.

"Can't find it, really can't find it. Except for this little bit of blood red. Tang Lin pointed to the red coating that was about to fall off on the lower edge and upper corner of the wall.

These coatings were previously used to decorate walls. In each room, at the bottom and at the top, there is a ring of red coating about the width of a mobile phone! But the red area in each room is not too large, and logically speaking, it is indeed impossible to produce a blood-red rear image!

I searched almost all the corners, but I didn't find a large area of red.

Tang Lin said helplessly: "Could it be that in the past two years, the structure of this building has been moved?" ”

"Impossible, according to the information Xu Jiaqi gave me, the entire old soap factory has not been passive in the past two years, so the things in it have basically not been passive. After the old soap factory was rectified, it was privately contracted, and when planning this area, it was considered that it would be rebuilt two or three years later with the overall transformation of this large area. ”

"That's trouble. If it hadn't been touched, we couldn't find the source of the blood-red color. That? ”

"What's that?" I said solemnly, "Is it a ghost?" ”

Tang Lin shook his head: "I still say the same thing, you have to believe in the existence of certain things, but you must not generalize everything to those things." ”

I agreed with her, so I continued to look for answers to my questions. From top to bottom, it was busy for a long time, and after making sure that we couldn't find the color source, we decided to come down and take a break.

After being tired for a long time, lying on the ground, Tang Lin and I leaned against the corners of the wall on the left and right respectively.

I used my arm as a pillow and looked at the ceiling above, while Tang Lin came over to me and said, "Brother Liang, there is actually a question I have always wanted to ask you, but I didn't dare to ask. ”

"Do you have any questions you don't dare to ask?"

"Then I'll ask." Tang Lin bit her lip and finally decided, "We all know that you have overhauled in the hospital, but we don't know, why did you overhaul?" I asked my third uncle, but he told me not to meddle in my business! ”

"Huh. Does he care about me? Actually, it's nothing, and I've thought about it for so many years. I closed my eyes slightly, and my mind flooded with memories from years ago.

In fact, every man has ever wanted to find a woman to live a quiet life. I'm no exception. I have been dating her for five years, and I thought about marrying her, but I didn't expect that all of this could not match the three sad words of long-distance relationship. I just came back to recuperate, and as a result, she ran away with someone else.

"Isn't the story bloody?" I laughed at myself.

"Well, but, does this have anything to do with you going to the hospital for overhauls?" Tang Lin asked curiously.

"I had to go home for a year to recuperate, but she didn't want to come back to me because she preferred the atmosphere of the big city. I respect her choice. It's just that she didn't expect that in less than half a year, she followed someone else. I couldn't figure it out at the time, so I decided to go to her. Dragging my body that has not yet healed, I traveled a long way, and halfway through, I had a car accident, so I went to the hospital for overhauls! ”

"So that's what happened. No wonder the third uncle asked me not to ask more, it turns out that people like Brother Liang, who doesn't care about anything, have also had actions to recover their ex-girlfriends. Haha, it must have made you feel ashamed. It's no wonder you're no longer interested in falling in love, I see a lot of girls around you, but you've never had a definite girlfriend! It turned out that it was really because of the excitement of something! ”

"I've figured it out. Who's to say I'm not interested right now? I smiled slyly.

"Eh, is this the woman you abandoned us the day before yesterday and went to eat with her? Haha, who is that woman, who can make Brother Liang rekindle the urge to fall in love! She must be very pretty! ”

"At least in my heart, she looks like a goddess, but it's a pity, hey, I and she are indeed not on the same channel." Rubbing my eyes, my mind and body were a little tired, looking into the distance, I thought it was impossible for me to stay up all night tonight, "Linlin, I'll sleep first, something will call me." ”

As soon as I said this, I closed my eyes and prepared to fall asleep, and suddenly, I felt an electric current pass through my brain, which made my head burst into a cold sweat, and I sat up in an instant!
