Chapter 8 Chapter 121 Small holes
Jia Xin opened the two iron gates in the north and south respectively
In front of Jia Xin, there is a pitch-black circular walkway and a huge space with no obstacles and faint lighting, and the light comes from nowhere, as if it is emitted by the building materials of the room.
"The north door can be closed, and the most difficult area is here." Jia Xin pointed to a room with a faint light in the south and said.
The southern area, like the buffer room, is a square pattern, with a preliminary estimate of about 2 kilometers on the sides, and a height of about 4 meters between the floor and the ceiling. In the center of the most important room was a small wooden table, on which there seemed to be something so small that it was too far to see.
"Firefly, you first check the room with all the bugs, two purposes, first, to find the branch of the little red dot. Second, look at the existence of ghosts in it, such an empty space, it can be said that there is nowhere to escape when targeted. In addition, Zhang Chen came over for a while. ”
Worm Firefly stood at the south door and began to do as Jia Xin instructed.
"Zhang Chen, how long can your body's ability be used, and what level of strength can it reach?" Jia Xin asked.
"The time should be the same as before, about five seconds, and I estimate that the strength will not be a problem to deal with an intermediate ghost thing." Zhang Chen replied seriously.
"Well...... I don't feel good, the room is a little weird. If I'm not mistaken, there are no so-called 'ghosts' in the southern district today. And there are some devices or triggers set in the room, and once we trigger them, ghosts will appear. When the time comes, you will need to improvise, and Miss Wormfly will definitely be worse at this point, you should think about her more, and I will act on my own. ”
"Okay." Zhang Chen nodded. Waiting for news from the insect firefly.
Sure enough, the news from the insect firefly quickly returned. None of the insects sent out to search the huge square room in the entire southern district died, which immediately showed that Jia Xin's guess was right, and there didn't seem to be any ghosts in the current southern district. And the latter piece of information made Jia Xin a little puzzled.
The other three walls in the room have small red dots in the middle, and they are always emitting a red light, which has no intention of extinguishing. On the wooden table in the center is a careful glass bottle that is only four centimeters high. At the bottom is a small layer of dirt and a small green seedling is planted.
"The little red dot may have something to do with the green seedlings, but there's too little information to speculate, so let's go first......"
With resolute gazes, Jia Xin and the three entered the southern area illuminated by the glimmer from the iron gate in the central area.
Step into this spacious area, without the endless darkness that existed before, without the infinite overlapping crossroads and unknown ghosts that existed before. But Jia Xin, including Jia Xin, couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, and a great sense of danger arose in everyone's hearts, far more than when they were in the Western District.
When the three of them entered the room, nothing terrible happened as they imagined, and because of the light. You can see the whole room, and you can see everywhere. Indeed, as Firefly said, in the center of the other three sides, three small red dots have been lit up from beginning to end.
The little red dot that brought safety to everyone in the West End before is feeling a little uncomfortable at this moment.
"There seems to be something extra on the wooden table in the center." The eyesight of the insect firefly is extremely good, I am afraid that it is caused by the existence of insects in the body.
"Let's go to the center first."
A distance of a thousand meters is not long to say, but short is not short, in this case. Walking step by step to the center of the room makes everyone feel uncomfortable. Sure enough, as Firefly said, on the surface of the central wooden table stood a four-centimeter-high glass vial containing seedlings. And the extra thing is a letter.
"Letters? Don't be in a hurry, wait for us to come back and open the letters, walk through the room first and see if there is anything else that needs attention. Jia Xin was naturally afraid that as soon as the letter was opened, it would trigger the mechanism in the room or release ghosts.
To be safe, the three of them move together and walk along the edge of the square space.
However, when the three of them came to the first small red dot on the left wall, in the middle of the wall. There is a small hole suitable for the height of an ordinary person, and the small hole leads to the other side of the wall. Because the small hole is within the range of the small red dot, the insects released by the insect firefly before did not find the storage of the small hole.
"I'll come......" Zhang Chen took the initiative to stand up and aim his eyes at the small hole, his body can use a certain amount of ability, if there is any danger in the small hole or an arrangement similar to illusion. You should be able to handle it.
It's not that the walls are thick and the visible range is very narrow. When I put my eyes together, I realized that the wall was only as thick as a piece of paper, and the small hole could almost see the scene 180 degrees wide on the opposite side.
The interior is not a place that is extremely dark, nor is it a horror movie where an eyeball suddenly prints out and looks at each other.
On the other side of the hole was a room about thirty square meters wide, and the color of the light was a very cold white, probably the feeling of light created by the incandescent lamp in the damp and concrete room.
At a glance, you can see that the interior looks like a bathroom of some years, with a vanity mirror with cracks, a washstand partially covered with moss, and a dull floor tile. However, Zhang Chen's gaze only stayed on a white ceramic bathtub with a peeled surface in the center.
The reason for this was that there was a naked girl lying in the bathtub, looking to be about twelve or thirteen years old. The fair-skinned body had many scars, similar to those of being whipped and the marks of being branded with a hot iron lock.
At this moment, the woman's head is wearing an iron hoop similar to a scientific instrument, interspersed with many red and green lines, connecting an old-fashioned machine placed on the legs of a middle-aged bearded man next to the bathtub.
The scumbag man's age seemed to match the girl's father, and the scumbag man muttered a few words, but Zhang Chen couldn't hear it clearly.
"Smack!" A loud slap was given to the girl's face, and the bearded man put the instrument on the chair he was sitting on in a bit of a rage, and he got up and quickly got up and left the bathroom.
A slap in the face seemed to be a good treatment, the girl didn't care about the red palm prints on her face at all, her clear eyes turned her head to look at the bathroom door, and after making sure that the bearded man was gone, the girl slowly took off the iron hoop on her head and stepped out of the bathtub carefully without making a sound.
Zhang Chen's gaze followed the girl, who crouched in a corner of the bathroom, where Zhang Chen saw a small green seedling that was out of place in the gloomy bathroom environment. Bright colors, vibrant life.
Staring at this green seedling, the girl smiled from the bottom of her heart. The seedlings are rooted in the gaps between the tiles and the ground, and I don't know what forces drive the growth of the seedlings.
It didn't seem that this was the first time for the girl to come here and find the seedling, so she took out a four-centimeter-high cylindrical glass vial from the bathtub behind her, and then squatted down and carefully pulled out the seedling rooted in the gap in the corner of the wall along with the root, and then put the seedling into the glass bottle.
Looking at the seedlings placed in the glass bottle, the girl looked very happy.
However, at this time, the sound of hurried footsteps came from outside the bathroom door. The girl looked extremely nervous, her head constantly turning, as if searching the room for something.
Suddenly, a pupil appeared on the small hole that Zhang Chen was looking at, and the pupil was full of uncomfortable feelings.
The girl stuffed the glass bottle in her hand into the small hole and blocked Zhang Chen's view.
Zhang Chen blinked, and the glass bottle blocked in the small hole disappeared, and the interior was still a gloomy bathroom, but the girl and the middle-aged bearded scumbag man all disappeared.
"What do you see? How did it take so long? Jia Xin had been staying aside, and did not make any noise to disturb Zhang Chen, and the insect firefly naturally stood aside obediently and waited patiently.
Zhang Chen described what he saw, Jia Xin just nodded without commenting on it, and he looked inside from Xiao Kong, which was just like what Zhang Chen saw lastly, an empty and gloomy bathroom.
"Keep walking."
The trio walked against the wall of the southern area and tried to find an iron door or some special marker, but only the damp and cold walls remained along the way, until the three of them came to the next small red dot area, which was directly in front of the southern area of the house, and there was also a small hole in the small red dot area.
The person who observed the situation inside the small hole was still Zhang Chen, but this time the internal situation seemed to be much more troublesome.
Zhang Chen leaned his eyes against the small holes, and the interior revealed a sunny scene, in a house where sunlight shines through the glass windows in the neatly cleaned hall of the house. There were even two small birds frolicking on the windowsill, which was a beautiful picture, but in Zhang Chen's sight, he saw a creepy scene.
A wheelchair used to restrain the mentally ill was placed in the center of the room, and on top of the wheelchair was the girl Zhang Chen had seen earlier, who seemed to be older than she had been in the bathroom before.
Around the wheelchair, the girl's long, jet-black hair was scattered all over the ground, apparently shaved off just a short time ago.
However, the skull of the girl in the wheelchair has been cut open to reveal the living brain inside. In the wheelchair on the side, the middle-aged man with a stubble in front of him was holding some surgical instruments and constantly moving something in his brain and checking something.
The girl maintained a state of consciousness throughout the whole process, and the pain can be imagined.
Zhang Chen also saw the small glass bottle pinched in the girl's hand, and the little green seedlings that seemed to survive in the glass bottle stored the girl's beliefs...... (To be continued......)
