Walking out of the alley, I took out my notebook and said to Zhu Liu, "Make a call, right?" Ask this Liu Wei to come out and ask about the situation. Zhu Liu couldn't wait to take the notebook, nodded, and looked depressed: "I also want to know something from him, this Zhang Xiaozhou is really strange, I have to figure it out." ”

Saying that, she dialed Liu Wei's phone, as soon as the number was dialed out, she said "shh

Finally, she took the phone off her ear, shook her head at me, and told me, "The phone went through, but no one answered." "Maybe I didn't hear it, let's call another one later." I guessed, and walked towards the outside of the alley first, Zhu Liu followed, stared at me with a nervous expression, and asked, "Could Zhang Xiaozhou have hid from him, so he didn't dare to answer the phone." I touched my chin, nodded and said, "It's also possible." ”

And in another place, in the hotel, the bearded man sat in the hall guarding the proprietress of the house, and several other people had already gone upstairs to sleep, only this evil proprietress just refused to rest, in her case, that is, if there were guests coming, there was no one to watch the store, wouldn't it be in vain to let go of a single business, which was a great loss for the budget-conscious proprietress and she would never tolerate this happening. So she would rather sleep crookedly against the counter, but she refused to go upstairs, and the bearded man had to sit helplessly on the chair to guard her.

In the pleasant afternoon, the sun is just right, the occasional breeze blows back, bringing a touch of coolness, all the people are on it, the hotel is quiet, the bearded man is leaning on the chair, the upper and lower eyelids are fighting, and he is also drowsy, at this time, an abrupt bell broke the silence, the bearded man opened his eyes, looked around in a daze, only to see that the sound came from the body wrapped in a sheet, "Jingle bell, Jingle bell" ringing did not listen, Inexplicably, this strange voice came from the corpse of the tragic death, and the bearded man felt that his scalp was a little numb.

He glanced at the proprietress who was not awakened and was still asleep, saliva dripped down the corners of her mouth and onto her cheeks, the bearded man shook his head and turned around, he looked at the corpse and slowly stood up from the chair, as if she was afraid of alarming something, and then she slowed down and walked towards the corpse.

The bell was still ringing, and there was no intention of stopping, the bearded man walked up to the corpse, swallowed his saliva, and then gritted his teeth, and violently uncovered the sheet covering the corpse, he squinted and glanced at the bloody corpse, and then found something, and the sound turned out to be from there.

The beard relaxed suddenly, he smiled, took the thing out with two fingers, and then scolded in a low voice: "Damn, it scared me, it turned out to be a mobile phone." ”

He was just about to answer the phone, and suddenly thought about it, how to tell the person over there after answering the phone, the person is dead, the mobile phone is in his hand, how to say it can't be clear, she hesitated for a while, just in the time he hesitated, the phone finally hung up, the beard breathed a sigh of relief, casually glanced at the caller ID, Jue's number looked a little familiar, but he didn't think much about it, casually threw the phone aside, thinking: Wait for the master to come back.

Then he lay back in his chair and soon began to snore.

And Zhu Liu and I walked around the alley, turned around for a long time, and still didn't come out of the alley, I sighed, this alley is too long, at this time, Zhu Liu suddenly stopped, she stood stiffly in place, looking around nervously, I stepped forward, patted her shoulder, and asked, "What's wrong?" Zhu Liu looked back at me, her eyes were full of horror, she looked very flustered, and then, she frowned, and said to me slowly: "Liu Fuying? Do you feel like we've just been to this place? ”

"Huh?" I've always been a road idiot, and after listening to her words, I looked at her for some reason, but in fact, I thought the roads here were similar, and I couldn't see the difference.

Zhu Liu pointed to a room in front of him and said to me, "Look, that one, there is a pot of jasmine on the balcony on the second floor, and only two of them have bloomed, and the others are buds." I've seen this pot three times. "I looked up, and sure enough, the white jasmine blossoms bloomed very subtly and had a unique beauty. Zhu Liu's observation was very detailed, so I kept burying my head and walked out, and I didn't find these details at all.

Zhu Liu then told me: "I came to this alley yesterday, you can go out directly after a few turns, it won't take so long at all, we have walked in here for so long, but the surrounding environment has not changed at all, the position of the sun has not moved, this is not normal at all, we don't seem to be able to go out at all, don't you think it's strange?" ”

After listening to her words, I finally realized that something was wrong, I raised my hand to look at the watch in my hand, and the hands actually stopped, as if it was still the same time when we left Zhang Xiaozhou's house and then called. What's going on?

I said to Zhu Liu: "You stand here and don't move, I'll go and take a look." If we can get out, it's better, if we can't, we have fallen into a trap. Zhu Liu nodded and said to me, "Then you should be careful." I smiled and waved at her, "Got it." ”

I remember when I came in, Zhu Liu first led me to turn left, walked for a while, then turned right, then went straight, turned left, I reversed the order, and began to walk out with my own impression, as long as I remembered correctly, I should be able to go out.

I crossed an alley, and then turned onto another, which didn't look so familiar, and I was pleasantly surprised, it seemed that I had made the right turn, and I just had to turn another corner, and I strode forward, and then I turned a corner, and then I was stuck in the same place.

From my line of sight, I can just see the pot of jasmine that Zhu Liu said, on the balcony on the second floor, two flowers, the others are small buds, I looked around again, the surrounding environment is really familiar, I have indeed walked through here several times, just now I walked out from here.

Zhu Liu leaned against the wall, looking at me helplessly, I walked towards her, frowned, and sighed: "What's the matter?" Did we encounter a ghost hitting the wall? Zhu Liu shook his head and explained to me: "In my experience, we should have fallen into the trap of the demon fox, she set up a game in this small alley, we will always go around in circles here, and we will not be able to get out at all." ”

It turned out to be the charm of the fox demon, she didn't know when she found us, and actually gave us a praying mantis cicada catcher yellow finch behind, I thought hatefully, she is too cunning, but isn't it just a small alley, how long can it trap us? As long as there is no one who has been cast by her to walk in, can't they take us out? Thinking of this, my mood became relaxed again, and I said to Zhu Liu: "Then we will sit here and wait, wait for others to find us and take us out." ”

Zhu Liu listened to my words, shook his head, and said with a wry smile: "Liu Yuying, you are also too naïve, we are trapped here by her and will not be discovered by others, except for ourselves, no one can get us out." "Zhu Liu and the demon fox are the same kind, she should know the demon fox best, the thought of being trapped here forever, my heart was shocked, and a cold sweat broke out from my head.

Zhu Liu sat on the ground dejectedly, and then explained to me the power of this spell, she said lightly: "Have you noticed that we have walked in here for so long, the position of the sun has not changed at all, and your watch has long been stopped, and we are no longer in the space of normal people." "I was shocked, and looked up at the sun, and sure enough, the sun was still hanging high in the sky, and it should still be noon, but we had really stayed here for a long time, and it should have been afternoon, and the position of the sun should have been a little westward.

Since we are here at another time, of course, the people who walked through this alley will not be able to find us, and the mobile phone should not be able to get through, I held on to the last bit of hope and dialed the bearded phone, but after the number was dialed, the mobile phone came with "Sorry, the call you dialed could not be connected." ”

I sighed and sat next to Zhu Liu, will I be trapped in this place all the time, trapped until I am old, trapped until I die? But the time here shouldn't be gone, I smiled at Zhu Liu bitterly: "Fortunately, time here will not pass, does that mean that we will not grow old and die here?" ”
