Chapter 11: Blood Babies
The ball jumped high and jumped straight to the post and bounced back. The pen & fun & pavilion www.biquge.info as if there was really a pair of hands violently slapping it, and the sound continued for a while, He Wei wanted to rush out immediately, but suddenly found that his legs were no longer strong.
He Wei's ears suddenly sounded a burst of "zilazila" electric sound, like the sound of the TV turned on in the living room, trembling for a moment, slowly twisting his neck, looking behind him, the suddenly turned on the TV screen in front of him appeared in the snowflake spots, and the thick secret seemed to have countless ants crawling on it.
After a few seconds or so, there was a picture of a kitchen with a table and a plate in the middle, and a big bowl in the middle, and a little boy and an old woman sitting on either side.
The two of them sat at the dining table eating steamed buns, and this scene seemed to be exactly the same as the previous kitchen, He Wei had to look back at the kitchen inside through the glass door, and found that the kitchen in this room was similar to the kitchen in the TV.
The lights in the room suddenly dimmed, and the rotten wooden door behind him was blown tightly by a gust of wind, leaving only a line-like gap in the light coming in from the outside.
When He Wei shifted his gaze to the TV, the little boy was eating with steamed buns in his hand, and he accidentally choked in the next second, coughing constantly, and his face was a little blue.
The old woman on the television hurriedly went up and patted him on the back, but to no avail, until the little boy's face turned blue, his eyes darkened, and he swallowed his last breath against the white ceiling, and then he planted his head and died tragically at the table.
Seeing that he was motionless, the old woman went up and patted him on the chest, then turned around and hammered him on the back again. Finally, he stretched out his palm and touched the little boy's heart, his mood quickly changed, and he went crazy, and after sitting on the ground and laughing silly, he went to the table and picked up three or five steamed buns, held them in the palm of his hand, and stuffed them into his mouth.
When she devoured the third steamed bun, her throat was choked at the same time, and she struggled with the ground with both hands for a long time, before her eyes turned red, and she fell to the bottom of the table in order, and died of breath.
When the TV screen showed this scene, the snowflakes flashed again.
He Wei was already sweating profusely at the moment, and then he remembered the steamed buns he took out of the refrigerator before, and reached out to touch his bulging pockets, and his palms were a little cold.
In an instant, the door of the living room was blown down by a gust of wind in front of the threshold, and the entire wooden door collapsed into the hallway.
He Wei took out the kitchen knife from before, slashed it at his feet, cut the bloody palm, and after getting rid of it completely, he picked up the table lamp on the TV screen and smashed it to pieces.
The golden light outside also shone in, and He Wei looked back at the gate, and immediately turned around and ran out.
When he rushed to the elevator door and opened the elevator, he saw the little boy standing in the elevator compartment, holding the ball in his arms and not letting go.
He Wei pretended not to see anything, calmly pinched his sweat, and turned sideways to walk to the door of another elevator.
"Big brother, do you want to take the elevator?" The little boy spoke suddenly.
He Wei was stunned for a moment, and immediately took a few steps back, looked back at the elevator box before, and found that the little boy didn't seem to be as terrifying as he thought, but the expression on his face was a little too stiff.
He Wei approached the elevator car, came to the little boy, and asked, "Are you looking for grandma?" ”
The little boy nodded, but did not speak.
He Wei asked again: "I know where your grandmother is, will you come with me?" ”
The little boy shook his head again and again, puffed out a pair of stiff eyes and replied, "No, I'm not going, I'm going to wait for grandma here." ”
He Wei exclaimed: "What? It's an elevator car here, so why don't you go out and wait, I'll go with you. ”
The little boy raised his head, pushed He Wei aside with one hand, stretched out a small hand and pressed the switch button next to the elevator, rubbed his index finger against the number key, and pressed the seventh and ninth floors at the same time, and the elevator door was quickly closed.
He Wei also stepped forward, put aside the ice cube wrapped in the cloth in his hand, and walked up to press it himself, but when he saw the number button on the elevator, he found that there was no one hundred floors to reach before, and the top floor was the thirty-second floor.
In desperation, I had to press down the thirty-second floor to see what the reaction would be.
"Dangerous!" The little boy said in a very heavy tone when he saw him press the number key.
He Wei let go of the button, and Yu Guangzhong had already noticed every move of his face, his lips did not move at all, and he didn't know where those three words came from in his body.
At this time, the elevator has begun to run, and the display frame above slowly rises from the second floor to the first floor, the first floor, and the second floor, until the display reaches the eighth floor, and the elevator suddenly stops.
The metal door of the elevator suddenly opened slowly through the gap, and outside the elevator car was a quiet company hall. The little boy suddenly walked out of the elevator with a leather ball.
He Wei felt that it was his hallucination for a while, and looked back at the row of number buttons on the side of the elevator, and indeed clearly saw that there was no number eight, and the number button leading to the eighth floor was replaced by the number between seven and nine.
The little boy had reached out and pressed these two numbers before, and the lights of the seven and nine numbers were on.
He Wei quickly turned around, looked at the little boy's red back, and opened his mouth to stop: "Hey! Come back, where are you going? “
After speaking, I was about to keep up, but the door of the elevator quickly closed by itself, and no matter how I pressed the switch, the elevator never opened, as if someone was controlling it from behind.
The elevator ran again, and it descended from the eighth floor back to the minus second floor, and when the elevator stopped, the door opened, but no one waited outside, only the exceptionally quiet corridor, and after about two seconds, the elevator closed.
But I didn't know that the seven or nine number keys on the elevator began to light up at some point, and they led to the eight-story building.
When the elevator began to rise, He Wei seemed to sense that something was wrong, and when he looked back left and right, there was still no one in the elevator except himself.
But He Wei could always feel that there was a person standing behind him, and from time to time he would hear weak breathing in his ears, and even cough lightly twice sometimes.
When the display frame reached the eighth floor, although the elevator stopped running, the silver-hard metal door in front of it did not open for a long time.
He Wei looked back again, but there was still no one, so he went up and pressed the red door opening button with his hand, but this time, no matter how he pressed it, the light on it never turned on again.
"Do you want to eat steamed buns?"
He Wei's ears suddenly came from behind this indifferent tone, and it was very vicissitudes, and the voice seemed to be sandwiched with a mouthful of phlegm, giving him a prickly feeling.
The sound of breathing behind him became more and more frequent, and He Wei wanted to look back, but there was a trace of fear in his heart, so he had to stand there and pretend that he didn't hear anything.
In the blink of an eye, the elevator door slowly opened. At the same time, heavy footsteps suddenly came from behind He Wei, passing by his ears step by step.
A white-haired, black-backed figure walked past He Wei, very short, very thin, bent over, hunched back, holding a cane, and wearing black cloth shoes and walked out of the elevator.
He Wei's lips were dry, and his eyes were almost frozen by the ice gas.
It was undoubtedly the coldest around at this time, and the cold air outside hit from the elevator compartment and blew onto the face, bringing bursts of heart-piercing numbness.
He Wei tried to move his stiff body and pressed the switch on it, but there was no response. Immediately afterwards, the baby's crying sound came from outside the elevator, and the lights in the compartment were also extinguished, and the entire elevator, except for a faint light from outside, couldn't see where his legs were standing.
He Wei realized that he couldn't stay in the elevator, so he rushed out and came to the hall, where the crying of babies was heard on all sides, and he didn't know where it came from, only that the sound was getting closer and closer to him.
There is a red corridor in the hall with a blanket on it, and this corridor seems to be a company that He Wei has been to before. Down the hallway was a modest office with a desk, an old water dispenser, and nothing else.
Whether this company exists or not, He Wei is not clear in his heart. But he knew that all the employees in this company had died many years ago, and none of them survived.
The most familiar of them is the baby's crying, I remember the first time I met the baby, the baby was wrapped in a round watermelon, with three incense sticks on it, and a white porcelain bowl in front of the incense.
As the crying continued, He Wei hurriedly took out a red candle from his pocket, lit it with a lighter, and walked along the path of the red blanket.
When I came to the corridor, I saw a round object hidden in the corner of a wall, which seemed to be indeed a watermelon. Illuminating the road with candlelight, I walked step by step, and when I approached a certain distance, I vaguely saw that there were three fire cores burning, which seemed to be incense.
He Wei walked to the corner of the wall, raised the candle a little higher, and at the same time put aside the thousand-year-old ice he was holding in his left hand, and after squatting down, he illuminated the watermelon in front of him.
The voice did come from within, and the baby inside didn't sound like a dead baby. He Wei took out a kitchen knife, took off the three sticks of incense on it, cut the whole watermelon in half, and took out the white shroud inside.
When it was opened, there was a living baby crying inside that had just been full of moon, his head was full of blood, and his hair was so long that he didn't even take the umbilical cord on his belly, and he didn't know which mother's womb the baby crawled out of.
He Wei casually tore off the curtain on the window, tore it into a cloth bag, wiped the blood on the baby's head, and used the kitchen knife in his hand to cut the baby's umbilical cord and throw it aside.
The baby's lips suddenly opened, revealing two rows of small, pointed teeth. He Wei was stunned for a moment, he couldn't have imagined that a baby who had just completed the month would have such long teeth, like a sharp pushpin nailed to his lips with a hammer.
The baby came up and bit at He Wei's wrist, which quickly let go, biting out two tooth marks.
After He Wei was frightened, his hands involuntarily let go, and he threw the baby directly to the ground, and in an instant, his head broke and he was bleeding, and the baby's crying was louder.
Holding the two rows of tooth marks on his wrist, He Wei went up and picked up the baby again, held it in his arms, and said to him: "Child, don't be afraid, my brother is here to save you, no matter if you are a human or a ghost, I will not hurt you." “
I don't know if the baby understood this sentence, but I know that he suddenly laughed in the next second.
Finally, he didn't cry, He Wei took him to a bathroom at the end of the corridor, put him in the sink and gave him a bath, washed all the blood stains on his head, and when he was picked up, he was a white and chubby little baby.
He Wei reached out and touched the baby's chest and found that there was a heartbeat, that is, the baby was alive, not a dead baby.
As soon as he turned around in his arms, he suddenly bumped into the little boy from before, who was standing in front of He Wei with his head down, and his body didn't move.
He Wei was shocked, took two steps back, and said, "Why are you here?" What about your grandmother? “
The little boy slowly raised his head, stretched out his finger and pointed at the baby in He Wei's hand, and said bluntly, "That's me!" That's me! “
As soon as the little boy finished speaking, he threw the ball in his hand to the ground, took off the Little Red Riding Hood on top of his head, turned around and ran away.
He Wei didn't catch up, just looked at his back, didn't say a word, and his face was about to turn into a piece of paper.
He Wei walked out of the room with the thousand-year-old ice in his left hand and the baby in his hand, and when he came to the corridor, the lights were already on, and the elevators on both sides of the hall seemed to be running normally, and the light towers on each floor were lit up one by one, and the surroundings seemed brighter.
There is a swimming pool in the middle of the hall, which He Wei has not noticed before, and when he came to this company, he did not pay attention to when there was an extra swimming pool in this place.
When I walked into the swimming pool, it was full of garbage confetti, cans, and water bottles thrown everywhere at the bottom of the water, as if it was a swimming pool that had been abandoned for a long time, and the water in it was very dirty and dirty, just like the stinky water in the muddy ditch, which was disgusting and disgusting.
There are still a few strands of hair floating on the skin of the water, which are very thick and long, like noodles that have just been put out of the pot, and you can see them clearly even from a distance.
There are two vending machines on both sides, and there are a lot of drinks in them, and it seems that the drinks inside can be drunk, but you need to insert coins to take them out.
He Wei touched his pocket, he didn't even have a steel hammer, his mouth was still a little thirsty, and he sighed mournfully.
At this time, the baby in He Wei's hand suddenly began to struggle, rolling in his arms, unable to grasp it. Soon, the baby fell out of his hands and into the pool, where a wave of water splashed and several bubbles appeared.
When He Wei saw it, he immediately jumped into the water without thinking about it, trying to scoop up the baby who was sinking into the water. Unexpectedly, the baby's whole body did not sink, but floated on the surface of the water like a piece of foam, still smiling on his face.
He Wei swam along the pool, and when he was halfway through, he found something heavy under his feet, and immediately dived into the water with his feet facing the sky, and scooped up a heavy bag of money.
The baby was still floating on the water nearby, and he immediately swam quickly, took the baby in his arms, and after swimming to the shore, he shook his hair.
At this moment, the baby was still smiling in his arms, and after He Wei put the baby on the ground, he opened the money bag that he had fished out of the water before, and found that it was full of coins one by one, and there were about dozens of them piled together.
He Wei walked all the way to the vending machine with the baby in his arms, took out two coins and threw them in, the vending machine made a vibrating sound, and a bottle of drink fell at the exit.
He Wei took out the can of drink, opened it and took a sip by himself, he hadn't drunk this taste for a long time, and he drank the drink directly in one breath.
After kneading the can into a cake shape, he threw it under his feet and stepped on it hard, which seemed to be a habit of his. After that, he took out several coins from the money bag and threw them into the vending machine, several bottles of drinks fell out of it, and there happened to be a black plastic bag next to it.
The elevator opened as soon as he entered, and as soon as he entered, the elevator automatically closed, and then automatically began to run, He Wei did not press the number keys between the floors, and the display frame automatically jumped to the hundred floors.
After reaching the hundredth floor, the elevator door opened, and the outside was the same as before, a cave, and the bell sat in a corner of the cave.
He Wei walked up briskly with the thousand-year-old ice in his hand, and when he came to the bell, he found that she had fallen asleep, and immediately patted her on the back, woke her up, and said to her: "Your cold ice, I have brought ice cubes, and I have brought a lot of steamed buns." “
The bell slowly opened his eyes, leaned back on his waist in a daze, and said, "Why did you come?" “
"Hey, it's a long story, it's not safe down there, by the way, you see what I brought you." He Wei put down the cold ice in his hand, took out three steamed buns from his pocket, handed them to the bell, and said, "Look, steamed buns." “
After the bell raised his head, he didn't look at the steamed bun in his hand, but looked at the baby he was holding in his arms, and paused for a while before he said lightly: "You...... What are you doing with a rock in your hand? “
After hearing this, He Wei hurriedly looked down at the baby in his hand, and replied with a smile: "What do you say?" What a stone, this is obviously a baby, you see he is still smiling, how cute. “
The bell didn't speak, just looked at him with a strange look, then grabbed the steamed bun in his hand with one hand, stuffed it into his mouth and began to eat it in a big gulp, and swallowed it in his stomach without chewing.
He Wei smiled, took out another black pocket, took out a bottle of drink from it, handed it to the bell, and said, "Look at what this is, you must not have drunk it." “
Bell took the can in one hand, looked at it curiously, and replied, "What is this?" Do you have a secret secret weapon? “
He Wei rolled his eyes and glared at her, then took out a bottle of drink from the black plastic belt, held it in his hand, and pulled off the pull ring on it, white bubbles appeared inside, and emitted a "zizi" sound.
He took the bell with one hand and sniffed it with his nose, feeling a pungent smell, but it also felt good, "What is this?" “
"Hey, it's a drink, you won't know if you take a sip."
Bell frowned, leaned on the stone wall with one shoulder, slammed the can drink in his hand to the ground, the drink flowed out of the can, and more white bubbles appeared, turned his face to look at He Wei, and kicked He Wei's chest with one leg sideways, "You flower thief, dare to poison and murder me." “
This kick was fast and accurate, and directly kicked He Wei to the ground on all fours, staggering to the ground.
The bell stepped forward again, grabbed his collar with one hand, bent his knee across his neck, and said angrily: "Say, who instructed you to poison, you don't even look at who this girl is, you can't even identify the bottle of poisonous soup?" How much medicine did you take with such thick bubbles? Trying to poison a cow is not. “
He Wei's face turned red, and he exhaled unbearably and said, "That's not poison...... Be...... It's a drink, and you won't know if it's poisonous or not. “
The bell's face became more fierce, he stretched out five fingers fiercely, grabbed He Wei's neck, twisted it hard, and said, "You still dare to quibble, if it is not poisonous soup, how can there be bubbles when it is spilled on the ground?" “
He Wei was out of breath and struggled desperately on the ground, but the bell kung fu was so deep that no matter how he struggled, he couldn't get rid of it, and he was almost about to swallow his breath.
Then, He Wei stuck out his tongue sadly and stammered, "Really...... If you try it with a silver needle, you will know, if it is really a bowl of poisonous soup, then the needle ...... The needle will turn black. “
The bell let go of his hand, stood up from his body, walked back to the corner, and continued to sit on the floor.
He Wei slowed down on the ground for a few minutes before he barely recovered his breath, and after standing up, he looked left and right, and said in surprise: "Ah, what about the baby, where is the baby going?" ”
Bell seemed to be angry, so he ignored him at this time, leaning against the wall and pretending to sink with his eyes.
He Wei looked everywhere for the baby he was holding in his hand, but he didn't find it anywhere, then looked back at the bell and asked, "Have you seen the baby?" It was in my arms just now, how can I say that I am gone, it's so strange. ”
"Your own children are not optimistic, how do I know where." The bell didn't reply kindly.
He Wei reached out and gently rubbed the red mark on his neck, it seemed that there was still some pain, but he was still looking around for the lost baby, no matter how he looked for it, he didn't find it.
At this moment, the bell suddenly opened his eyes, faced him, recruited him, and said with a colorless expression: "Come here, you flower thief with a ghost in your heart." “
