Chapter 4: Quest Rewards
"Ah, don't, don't!"
Qin Tian heard the screams of the middle-aged woman, full of despair and heartbreak.
"What the hell is outside the elevator?"
He sat in the corner and couldn't open his eyes, his heart was tormented, and this feeling was worse than death.
Immediately afterwards, Qin Tian heard the sound of panicked high heels, it should be a middle-aged woman who wanted to run out of the elevator.
Qin Tiangang wanted to make an exception and remind her not to get out of the elevator, but he didn't expect the shock to happen again.
After a few footsteps, he heard a muffled "poof" and something fell to the ground.
Then, all the sounds disappeared, the middle-aged woman didn't make any more sounds, time seemed to stop at this moment, and the whole world seemed to be only Qin Tian left.
Unconsciously, a cold sweat had oozed from Qin Tian's back, and the dead silence was stalemate with him.
"What's wrong with that woman, and why isn't the elevator door closed? Is there something standing at the elevator entrance? ”
The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became.
At this time, there was a sound of "bang, bang, bang" from the dead elevator, the sound was intermittent, ringing for two seconds, stopping for one second, ringing for another two seconds, and gradually moving away.
Qin Tian's hairs stood on end when he heard this, it was obviously the sound of dragging a heavy object.
When the friction sound of dragging things got farther and farther away, the elevator door closed, and since then, Qin Tian had never heard the movement of the middle-aged woman again.
In the deathly silence, Qin Tian's heart was so confused that he didn't notice that the elevator door was open again.
This time, no middle-aged woman made a sound, Qin Tian didn't even have a chance to guess, and the uneasiness in his heart swallowed him like a tide.
He only heard the sound of the wind whistling outside the elevator, but strangely, the wind did not blow into the elevator.
The elevator door closed and opened for a while, and the sound of the crash of the door slamming knocked on Qin Tian's heartstrings over and over again, and the suppressed feeling made Qin Tian breathless.
With a "click", Qin Tian suddenly felt something strange about the glass he was leaning on, and the sound sounded like the glass was cracking.
After the first "click" appeared, as if the fuse had been ignited, a dense "click" sound sounded in Qin Tian's ears, which was particularly harsh in the silence.
"How can a mirror be broken for no reason?" Qin Tian couldn't help but want to open his eyes, but thinking of the mission rules, he still dispelled this thought.
Suddenly, Qin Tian felt that something was touching his hair, and there was something on his head, and the thing slid down the top of Qin Tian's head, covering half of his face.
"Hair!" Qin Tian's heart suddenly stirred, it was long hair, and what slipped down from the top of his head was a long hair!
As soon as the thought came to him, a gentle breath of wind hit his neck.
Qin Tian's last trace of defense was finally broken, and he shouted nervously: "Eldest sister, is it you?" Don't joke with me, it's not interesting at all. ”
Making an exception, he spoke, but no one responded to him, Qin Tian only heard a "snap", and the thing covering his face rolled all the way down Qin Tian's body to the ground, like a leather ball.
But Qin Tian knew that it was definitely not a ball, and there was no ball with hair on it!
But all this was not over, the sound of the mirror cracking lingered in Qin Tian's ears like a magic sound, and the sound of the ball falling to the ground sounded loudly.
The whole elevator room is crazy!
"Who's there!"
Qin Tian clenched his teeth, stood up suddenly, and shook his body wildly, not wanting to be touched by those "balls".
It took a few minutes for all the movement to fade away.
Qin Tian sat on the ground with palpitations and kept panting, if it weren't for his psychological endurance, I'm afraid he would have been unable to open his eyes and run out of the elevator.
"Fortunately, although I spoke and moved my body, I didn't open my eyes and didn't leave the elevator, and I was still able to complete the task of normal difficulty."
At this time, the elevator shook violently twice, and then the elevator lights turned on, and instead of descending again, it slowly rose.
"Is it over?" Qin Tian sat paralyzed, waking up like a dream, and when he recalled his previous short experience, he unconsciously broke out in a cold sweat.
"Ding."
The elevator door opened, and the long-lost sunlight shone on Qin Tian with a fresh smell, reminding him that he was still alive.
"Mission accomplished, right?"
Qin Tian opened his eyes with a mutter, and was dizzy from the sunlight.
He looked at the people coming and going in the hall with deep eyes, the warm and bright sunlight in front of him, and the decaying and gloomy elevator behind him, and Qin Tian was no one, just a junction line.
Turning his head suddenly, Qin Tian was stunned, the three mirrors in the elevator room were all shattered like spider webs, reflecting countless figures.
What shocked him the most was that the middle-aged woman was gone, leaving no trace.
"How is that possible!"
Qin Tian searched every corner of the elevator, but did not find the slightest trace left by the middle-aged woman, but found a few long hairs on the ground.
Not only were there long hairs left on the ground, but there were also a few in the cracks of the broken mirrors.
"What happened?" Qin Tian looked up at the top of his head in a daze, and once again saw the neat handwriting on the rusty and rolled iron sheet.
"Don't look back, don't go forward, hide, close your eyes. It's going to get dark soon, listen, they're coming, caressing your hair in your ear. ”
Looking back and seeing these lines of words again, Qin Tian felt creepy.
He hurriedly went to the lobby to find the front desk, told the other party about the disappearance of the middle-aged woman, and asked them to call the police immediately.
The front desk went to the elevator with Qin Tian to check the situation: "The broken mirror may be due to the shaking of the elevator when it is running. ”
"It's just that," the front desk staff looked at Qin Tian, "I remember that you entered the elevator alone, and when the elevator door was about to close, you suddenly reached out to block the door and said a few words to yourself, so I was very impressed by you." ”
"Sir, maybe you saw yourself in the mirror, so you mistakenly thought there was someone else in the elevator?"
Qin Tian frowned tightly: "What do you mean by this?" Do you suspect that I have a neuropathy? Someone is really missing, I'm not kidding. ”
"I'm not joking with you, only the food delivery is in and out at this point, there are so many people up and down, I just see that you are not wearing a rider's suit."
"Impossible!" Qin Tian's face changed, "Just go and call the monitor in the elevator and take a look." ”
At Qin Tian's strong request, the staff took him to the security room to adjust the surveillance.
"Dead yellow-faced woman, damn it, I'm working hard to make money outside, what's wrong with going out to gamble? Divorced and divorced all day long, it's really annoying, if you quarrel again, Lao Tzu will go home and smoke you to death. ”
A man in a security guard uniform walked over while swearing on the phone.
The staff pointed at Qin Tian and said a few words in his ear.
He nodded, and said to Qin Tian that it was okay to check the surveillance, but the surveillance video was a secret within the company, and outsiders could not see it, so if he had to stay outside the monitoring room, he would go in and adjust the surveillance.
"I'm in trouble." Qin Tian was restless, and always felt that something was going to happen.
The security guard went into the monitoring room alone to adjust the monitoring, and the front desk and Qin Tian were waiting outside.
A few minutes later, there was a sudden scream of "ah" in the monitoring room, and then Qin Tian saw the security guard frantically slamming open the door and running out.
"What's wrong?" The front desk was quick and hugged the security guard.
"It's not me, I didn't see you, it's none of my business, it's dark, it's dark, don't look for me...
He shouted unconsciously, shook off the front desk, and ran away in a frenzy.
"It's crazy."
Qin Tian looked at the back of the security guard in surprise, entered the monitoring room, and saw that the monitoring was being played back on the computer screen.
The weird thing is that the surveillance images from Qin Tian after running into the building are all broken, and when they jump out again, the picture is already when Qin Tian walks out of the elevator.
"Where's the middle section? The security guard must have seen something, otherwise he wouldn't have gone crazy, and what did the shouting in his mouth represent? ”
Qin Tian's heart was full of doubts, and at this moment, the mobile phone rang, which was a reminder that the task was completed.
"Congratulations on completing the mission on Normal difficulty, since the difficulty is the lowest, you can only get the highest level of rewards."
"Congratulations on getting the plot: Dead Elevator (The world of dead silence knows day and night, any time you enter the elevator of the Oriental Building and press all floors, you can feel their enthusiasm.) Evaluation: Clever atmosphere rendering, rich layering, logical disorder but does not affect the wholeness. Terror Index: Half Star. )
Qin Tian's face was ugly, and the plot horror index of the Dead Silence Elevator was actually only half a star! He has experienced it himself, even if it is 3 or even 4 stars.
"Half stars are so terrifying, how terrifying the plot of 4 stars and 5 stars should be."
He suddenly regretted becoming a writer of horror stories, those plots are not simple text settings, but real existence in this world!
It's going to die! There is still no news of that middle-aged woman, and no one even believes that she exists!
With complicated emotions, Qin Tian clicked on the screen and found an amazing thing, the data of the horror story collection actually changed again:
Popularity: 6372
Today's hits: 6232
Total hits: 8572
Today's comments: 14
Total reviews: 17
Tip: Not yet
All the numbers have increased, and they have increased more than a little bit, and the clicks have soared by 6,000.
"The plot of the bus is all gone, and no one can watch it anymore, could it be that what I experienced in the dead elevator was automatically written into text and appeared in the document, and then it was promoted and released?"
Thinking of this, Qin Tian was so shocked that he couldn't help himself, and immediately entered the writing interface to check.
There are now two headings in the writing interface, which are Midnight Bus No. 14 and Dead Elevator.
But the text is blank, and there are no words.
Confused, he opened the comments to see the 10 new comments:
"Grass, it's scary, what's out there in the elevator!"
"Where's the old aunt, where did the old aunt go? Author, please tell me, if you don't tell me, I'll lose sleep tonight. ”
"Why is the mirror broken, what is the ending of the middle-aged woman, is that ball with hair a human head?"
"Hello, I am Zhao Fan, the general manager of Yunhai Media Company, I think you write very well, are you interested in coming to our company? Call me 1356845****"
"What a broken website, I can still read it just now, I sprinkled a soak of urine, the text of the novel is gone, and there is a bug."
。。。
"It's true," Qin Tian put down his phone and staggered, "I became the protagonist, and what I experienced in the elevator was automatically arranged into words for everyone to read." ”
When he wrote Zhang Yang before, Qin Tian didn't feel much of it, but now that he has become the protagonist in the book, he suddenly felt a little creepy.
Vaguely, he felt that this collection of horror stories was alive, was he writing a book, or was the book writing about him?
