Chapter 17: The Proving Ground

Yidan Shilin suddenly didn't dare to go in.

He was afraid, afraid to see terrible scenes.

After holding on like this for half a minute, he swallowed his saliva and finally walked into the bedroom again.

"Ahhh

After seeing the scene on the bedroom floor, he immediately screamed in horror and the plate in his hand fell to the ground.

The watermelons all fell and turned into countless red pieces.

What he saw was his wife's headless corpse, a large amount of blood splattering out and staining the bedroom red.

"Ahh!!hh Ahh!!hhhh ”

He collapsed to the ground, and kept backing up.

However, after stepping back a few meters, he suddenly saw that the watermelon that was originally on the plate had turned into a chopped human head.

He saw his wife's eyes widen wide, staring at him in fear, despair, and resentment.

Between her eyes, there is a distance of about a meter.

Something suddenly occurred to him.

"No...... No way! ”

He screamed and rushed into the kitchen.

He saw that the kitchen knife he had used to cut the watermelon just now was covered in blood.

"Impossible! No way! No way! ”

He roared like madness.

There was a slamming of the door, and he stopped shouting.

It's that guy coming!

Shan Shilin desperately suppressed the shouts in his throat and stepped back in panic.

The door was smashed open, and a man covered in blood rushed in from the outside.

The man grinned and raised the axe in his hand.

"Ahh

Shan Shilin woke up.

Is it a dream?

He was stunned and turned his head to look around in a panic.

He found himself sleeping on the couch, it was already dawn, and the outline of the furniture came into view.

It's good that it's just a dream.

He sighed, got up, and walked to the door.

The dream was too real to be like a dream at all.

He wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked at the time.

It's five o'clock in the morning, and my wife hasn't come back yet.

Right? No matter how busy you are, you won't be able to come back at this time, right?

Shan Shilin's heart rose again.

Eventually, he decided to go to his wife's company to find her.

Shi Yuan had insomnia again.

He always found the mission in the cave very strange. In fact, he always felt that it wasn't a mission at all. However, as to why he thought it was not a mission, he could not say exactly.

yes, why don't you think it's a task?

Shi Yuan pondered this question repeatedly.

Because it's too simple? Because you didn't receive a text message? Because you didn't get a "reward"? Because you haven't met An Lingxian's siblings?

Shi Yuan believes that if a crucial thing is too smooth and too easy, it is most likely a trap.

Is that "game" also a trap?

He felt like his mind was at a dead end.

He simply stopped thinking about this problem and began to think about the question of "those with the same root and the same origin".

If the last "game" is indeed the task corresponding to the last page of the book, then among those people, who is most likely to be An Lingxian's brothers and sisters?

Wei Haoyan can first rule out that she is not human.

The surname could not provide him with any clues, because "An" was not An Lingxian's real surname at all, and she had no memory of her original identity.

In terms of appearance, I don't think anyone looks similar to An Lingxian.

After thinking about it for a long time, Shi Yuan finally gave up.

Seemingly, nothing has progressed. This "game" did not provide him with any information.

Dark World ......

Those three words wrapped around his heart like a spell.

The dark world should refer to the "underworld" and "underworld" in traditional folk culture, and the "hell" that Westerners think is the place where people will go after death.

However, in the place of Raven Ridge, the living will be forcibly pulled into that world, and the ghosts will come to this world.

What is this for? Could it be that this Crow Ridge is some kind of "testing ground"?

Shi Yuan remembered the incident when all the people in the business circle on the mountain disappeared twenty years ago.

However, it is not yet possible to confirm whether the disappearance event is the cause or the result.

"Congratulations, droplet, you look really beautiful now."

A girl as delicate as a doll said to another girl in front of her.

Although she was saying congratulations, her expression was very cold.

"Ethereal, I've made a lot of money," Leng Di said, "I'm still underage, and it's hard to find someone who is willing to operate on me." ”

"Good thing you can afford to pay that money."

Shen Ethereal still had a cold expression, like a real puppet.

She doesn't seem to laugh at all.

Leng Di didn't care, and looked in the mirror vigorously, admiring the new face inside.

What does it feel like to see an unfamiliar face in the mirror?

Cold Drop smiled as she finally knew the answer to the question.

Now, I'm finally no longer the foil of the ethereal side.

The relationship between the two has always been excellent, like sisters. It's just that Shen Ethereal's delicate facial features and fair skin make her look extremely unreal, like a beautiful girl in anime. And cold drops, although they are considered to be above average among ordinary people, once they stand next to Shen Ethereal, they will immediately look ugly.

She was naturally unwilling. Fortunately, she had money at home, so she hid it from her parents and went for plastic surgery. In addition, she also studied makeup seriously.

Now, she has also become an unreal beautiful girl. When she and Shen Ethereal stand together, they are like two finely carved dolls.

"Xiao Di, you can finally straighten your waist and be a man," Shen Ethereal still said with a cold expression, "Although everyone doesn't dare to say anything in front of you, they can say everything behind their backs." Some say you're my foil, some say you're ugly, and some say you're asking for your own hardships. Oh, by the way, the most powerful thing to say is the three cheap people in the next class. ”

The "three cheap people" she refers to are three mature girls who don't look like junior high school students at all. I don't know if it's because of their actual age, or because of the problem of dressing, those three people always give people a very charming feeling.

And what the three of them like to discuss the most is the cold drops around Shen Ethereal.

They did not hesitate to pour all kinds of ugly words on Leng Di's body, and tried their best to sarcastically and sarcastically, and maliciously insulted Leng Di.

They posted photos of Shen Ethereal and Leng Di walking together to the circle of friends and various forums, and each time they attracted many people's cynicism about Leng Di.

"What are you talking about, Ethereal?" Leng Di's expression, which was still very happy just now, suddenly turned cold, "Is there a cheap person in the class next door?" ”

Shen Ethereal did not speak.

After a good three minutes of silence, Shen Ethereal changed the subject.

For some reason, she suddenly remembered something that had happened in the last few days.

The three bewitching girls in the next class have taken leave due to illness one after another, and they haven't come to class yet.
