Chapter 68: Signs
The teddy bear doll is only half a meter tall and has no support inside, and God knows how it moves on its soft bear feet.
I tried to make up for it, and a teddy bear doll staggered down the floor, like a drunken drunkard, taking three steps forward and two steps back, not to mention how weird the picture was.
When I walked out of the bedroom, I saw the other end of the red rope scattered in the corridor to the right, but I didn't see the teddy bear doll, so I picked it up and looked at it, guessing that it was broken.
And you know, the red rope is made of hemp rope, don't look at it is thin and long, but under normal circumstances, it is difficult for adults to tear it off without the help of tools.
Well, how strong is this teddy bear doll? I couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
Thinking like this, I glanced around and found that the layout of Yun Yin's room was very complicated, and the corridor was not a road to the end, but turned left and right, which was like a maze, and I couldn't see the overall situation at a glance.
I had no choice but to check along the hallway, the doors were mostly closed, and I didn't open them to the doorknobs, considering that the teddy bear doll couldn't touch the doorknob, and instead focused on the rooms with the doors open.
And when I walked to the door of a certain room, I suddenly caught a glimpse of something like a grain of rice on the floor, and when I picked it up, I saw that it was really a grain of rice, not ordinary rice, but glutinous rice.
But before I could think about it, I heard movement in the room again, the slightest sound of footsteps, like someone deliberately padding their feet.
Coincidentally, the door of this room was not locked, it was half-hidden, and the glutinous rice grains on the ground were scattered from the crack in the door, which inexplicably gave me a feeling of a trap.
Is this treating me like an old hen?
Although I was a little hesitant, I was a casual cultivator Chen Dao Chang, relying on the courage of the artist, I directly pushed the door open completely, and then peeked inside.
The inside was black and linen, and by the dim wall lamps in the corridor, I could only see the general outline of the room, judging from the conspicuous bookcase, it should be a study or guest room.
When I entered the room, I turned on the light switch in the dark, and the room became brighter, and it was really a study, and the bookcase was full of all kinds of literature.
After a cursory glance, almost every book is very compelling, either the Confucian "The Mean" series, or the Taoist "Tao Te Ching", and even the military family has a lot of books, and I have not even heard of many titles.
Anyway, in a word, there is not a single miscellaneous book of this kind in the bookcase, just looking at it, it makes Jueren very awesome.
However, I was not interested in those large books, and it was the easy-to-understand work of the Golden Bottle Plum that suited me better, and I quickly turned my attention away and looked at the layout of the whole room.
The decoration layout in the room is very simple and atmospheric, in addition to the bookcase, there is a desk, a chair, and there is a sofa in the corner of the wall, which can't hide people at all.
I pinched a talisman in my hand, walked a few steps along the 'signpost' formed by glutinous rice on the ground, and then slowly bent down and cautiously glanced at the blind spot under the desk, which was full of space for a teddy bear doll.
Unfortunately, there was nothing else in it except a small pile of scattered glutinous rice.
But I was about to stand up when there was a slight sound of footsteps behind me, followed by a muffled sound, and I quickly turned my head, only to find that the door that had been open had suddenly closed.
The windows in the study were closed, so the door couldn't have been closed by the wind, it must have been brought with you just when something went out.
"It's fun, this beast is playing peek-a-boo with me." I cursed and ran towards the door.
Sure enough, there was also a lot of glutinous rice scattered behind the door, and it seemed that the thing was hiding behind the door before, and it was really bold enough.
The door wasn't locked, it opened easily, and I was back in the hallway, and guess what I saw?
A teddy bear doll is literally running down the hallway, and in an extremely strange posture, step by step on its weak short legs, while something on its body keeps leaking out.
Also, it's not fast, but you can see that it's using all its strength, which undoubtedly makes the weirdness a little more funny.
Even though I boast of being bold, when I see this scene, I am not afraid, but I just feel that my scalp is numb and panicked.
Soon, it ran around the corner of the hallway, and then disappeared from my view again.
And I remember that the corner it ran around was a dead end, and I was in no hurry to catch up with it, unless it could fly away, otherwise it wouldn't be able to run tonight.
Looking at the sticky rice scattered in the hallway, I finally knew where these things came from, and the stuffing of the teddy bear doll was not cotton or anything like that, but glutinous rice.
"That's interesting." I have already decided that the teddy bear doll will not be simple, maybe it has something to do with Yun Yun's disappearance, after all, ordinary dolls, how can they put glutinous rice in it.
And if nothing else, the teddy bear doll may also be the handiwork of someone in the industry, after all, glutinous rice is a commonly used prop in many arts.
In fact, you may not know very well that glutinous rice can not only drive away evil spirits, but also serve as a carrier for resurrecting the soul by borrowing corpses.
As for the principle, I'm not very easy to explain, anyway, the attributes of glutinous rice have a high degree of compatibility with things like yin ghosts, and they are used to make the internal organs of dolls, so as to facilitate the possession of yin spirits, which is not too suitable.
Anyway, in a word, the Yin Soul wants to borrow lifeless objects, which is not as simple as we believe, and requires many harsh conditions.
Thinking like this, I had reached the end of the corridor, and the traces of glutinous rice on the floor had come to an abrupt end here, and in front of me was a wall with round windows, and outside the window was a long night.
"Damn, are you really flying?" I looked out the window a few times, but I couldn't see anything clearly.
The round window was open, about a meter above the ground, and it was possible for a teddy bear doll possessed by a ghost to jump out of here.
But this thought was quickly dispelled by me shaking my head, and the window was only ajar, and according to the bloated and fat size of the teddy bear doll, it would be 100% stuck.
And there is a room next to it, and although the door is closed, it cannot be ruled out that it will be open before I come.
Just as I was thinking, as if to confirm my suspicions, there was a woman's scream in the room, followed by the sound of something falling to the ground and shattering, but soon there was no movement.
Not daring to hesitate, I tried to turn the doorknob, but nothing happened, so I was about to break down the door when it opened from the inside.
Without the slightest warning, Mrs. Su Yansu walked out of the room, stared at me directly, and asked coldly, "Daochang Chen, what are you planning to do?" ”
