Chapter Thirty-Six: Darkness
The most dangerous thing in the dark is often not those fearful ghosts, or demons that choose people to devour, but the fear of the unknown that humans themselves generate! Because you never know what's going to happen in the next second in the dark!
Do you feel something strange? Or is there actually a ghost floating in front of you who has been watching you in the dark, but you can't see it? Or have you unknowingly come to some horrible place?
It's all unknowable!
Imagination has a huge role in the history of human development, but sometimes too rich imagination is not a good thing, it is not as good as at this moment, in the darkness of the dark Jiang Liu can not control his imagination, and his mind is full of some terrifying scenes.
At this time, he was like a blind man, groping his way forward in the darkness. Coupled with the bloody scene just now, it had been lingering in his mind, making him feel that something was watching him all around him.
In the darkness, time seemed to disappear, and he didn't know how long he had spent here.
A few minutes? Ten minutes? Or an hour!
He only felt that he was going crazy, and he had already followed the impression in his mind, and he did not touch the wall along the way. But it was still dark in front of me, and there was no light in sight.
If you go on like this, don't wait for the ghost to come, and you will be scared to death by your own imagination first!
Jiang Liu felt that it was not a way to go on like this, and was thinking about how to find the light source. He suddenly remembered the scene of smoking with Li Lin during the day, and he remembered that after smoking during the day, he seemed to put Li Lin's lighter in his pocket. Quickly reached out and took it out, and if he really took out a hard thing, he guessed by the touch in his hand that it should be a lighter.
This discovery made him very happy, in this dark environment, the psychological effect of light is too great for people, even if he saw some horrific scenes when he lit the lighter, it was as good as a blind man now.
After hitting it a few times, I found that there was no light in front of me, and I couldn't even see the sparks from the collision of flints!
[Huh? Could it be that the lighter is broken? 】
Thinking of this, Jiang Liu couldn't help but scold: "The lighter on the dog day broke when it should have come in handy!" ”
I didn't give up and shook it a few more times, and hit it again. What disappointed him was that there was still no light in front of him, let alone Mars. He was so angry that he threw the lighter directly to the ground.
"Bang"
Just as he threw out the lighter, a loud bang sounded around him. Frightened, he jumped up directly, and just when he was about to open his mouth to scold, he suddenly seemed to think of something, and a chill rushed directly to the back of his head!
The sound that sounded beside him just now felt familiar to him, or rather, familiar to every smoker.
Jiang Liu also likes to smoke, and whenever he is in a bad mood or feels stressed, he will smoke a few in the past, and then smash the lighter he bought. It was precisely because he had such a habit that when the voice sounded just now, he knew what the sound came from.
That's right! It's the sound of a lighter exploding!
Every smoker knows that it is impossible for a lighter without gas to make such a violent sound, and since the lighter just now can make such a violent sound, it means that there is still gas in the lighter. There is no problem with the flint, he also lit a cigarette with Li Lin during the day, and it is impossible for it to be broken when he wants to use it just now, and he can't even shoot sparks.
So the question is, since there is no problem with the flint and there is enough gas in the lighter, why didn't I see the flame just now, not even a trace of spark?
After thinking about it for a long time, a terrifying answer appeared in Jiang Liu's mind.
At this time, he looked at the darkness in front of him, and found that the darkness in front of him was somewhat different from the darkness he had seen in the previous night. It's not that thick, and the black is somewhat even.
He had no experience of being blind, so he didn't know what color the darkness was in the eyes of those blind people. But the darkness in front of him made him feel a little different, and the specific differences made him unable to speak, as if he had seen the world through the veil before, and it seemed as if something had covered him. It was as if a wave of his hand could dispel the strange darkness in front of him.
He reached out and touched his eyes, but found nothing covering his eyes. It's ridiculous that the lighter was dropped by him in a fit of anger just now, and he can't verify the idea that just surfaced.
Just when Jiang Liu didn't know what to do, a violent knock on the door suddenly sounded not far in front of him, accompanied by some noisy words.
Jiang Liu was startled, and when he was about to retreat, he heard Li Lin's eager call.
"Hey! Li Jing, are you still inside? Squeak if you're still alive! ”
"Quick, Li Lin, get out of the way, get ready to knock the door open!" At this time, Xu Qian's voice.
Hearing his partner's voice, Jiang Liu immediately became excited! He didn't die, he survived the terrible scene just now, although I don't know why the ghost let him go and didn't kill him, but it couldn't hinder him from regaining the joy of rebirth, and he felt a loud cry: "Hey, everyone, I'm inside, I feel like come and save me!" ”
Since the darkness in front of him had not receded, Jiang Liu did not dare to move at will, so he had to stand in place and shout loudly, hoping that Li Lin and the others could break open the door and find themselves.
Li Lin, who was outside the door, couldn't help but pause when they heard the sound of the river flowing in the student's room, but they quickly reacted and shouted into the room: "You are standing still and don't move, we will come to save you soon!" Xu Qian, you two women dodge away, Jin Wanquan will kick the door together! ”
Then I heard the sound of the door kicking, about 5 or 6 times, and then I heard the sound of the door kicking open.
Just when Li Lin and the others entered the room collectively, Jiang Liu, who had been staying where he was waiting for Li Lin and a few people to rescue, suddenly felt as if he had been pushed from behind by someone, and staggered forward a few steps, and when he stood firm and turned to look back, he was surprised to find that he could see things again! The strange darkness has disappeared at some point.
And in front of him was the huge mirror embedded in the wall!
There was not a trace of blood in the mirror that was originally covered with blood, and he could see every part of his body cleanly, and the bloody head hanging in the air was gone. Looking behind him, the severed limbs scattered on the floor were gone. It's as if everything was just his dream.
