Chapter 39: Soul Hooking

Deeper shadows float beneath the night sky, so the earth is more clearly separated from the sky, and no one realizes what will happen next. The campfire in the camp was already dying, strangely there was not even a hint of fresh wind, and the trees could not be seen like human figures, and the solidified sparks were finally annihilated, and there was a deathly silence. The shadows floating in the night sky hummed a dance song, the melody was light but charming, and there was only a warning light in the camp to record this gloomy picture.

Gradually, they cut through the woods, spread through the weeds, swirled and circled around the vehicles and tents, and finally, permeated through the crevices of the inaccessible path. Those who had long since fallen into a deep sleep, after a bumpy day and night, were overwhelmed and breathed heavily. The rhythm of the sound melts into the airflow, and it enters their nose or eardrums, and into their lungs or brains.

The bustling city, even when night falls, does not take away the excitement it deserves, and the sound of cars in the streets is still transmitted, echoing among the skyscrapers, standing on the rooftop, standing on the top floor of the central hospital. The woman in the white gown had misty eyes, she was on the edge of a tall building, and the night wind whistled past her ears, blowing her seductive hair to pieces. She turned around, as if she was looking at something, but there was nothing on the empty rooftop, this haggard look made her beauty even more regrettable, and the familiar face was not much different from Tan Lin. "Hi...... Sister. The woman muttered, and then her whole body retreated backwards, her bent limbs absorbed by some powerful force, causing her to fall into the abyss.

"Oh, no!" In the carriage, Tan Lin exclaimed, woke up from the nightmare, reflected the slightly glowing desk lamp, cold sweat hit all over the body, and Xiyuan on the bed next to him turned sideways and continued to fall asleep. She gasped weakly, distracted, and her pulse was like hot oil on the back of her hand, making it beat and hot, and she couldn't shake it off. "Okay, this, it's all just a dream, I just miss her too much, I'm sorry, Tan Su, I'm sorry......" She whispered and released the anxiety in her heart. But when she lay down again, even if she closed her eyes, the spiritual comfort was difficult to soothe.

Then she sat up again, this time with her head up, as if listening intently to something, and her frown added to the tension. She got up and got out of bed, the carriage was on the left and right bunks, and shook Xiyuan, who was sleeping soundly. "Xiyuan, Xiyuan, wake up, wake up."

The shaking made the confused woman open her eyes. "Well, what's wrong?" She was so sleepy that she felt like her whole soul was about to be hollowed out, and she couldn't lift up the slightest strength.

"You, do you hear that?" Tan Lin squatted down, leaned against the head of the bed, leaned against her ear, and whispered in a trembling voice, extremely uneasy. "Outside, there's a voice outside."

"Voice?" Xiyuan tried to raise his head, but his heavy brain couldn't move at all, and he was exhausted. "Didn't you sleep well, you were too worried, and you didn't make a sound." She glanced at the clock on the table, 02:45. "It's three o'clock in the morning, and I have to hurry tomorrow morning, don't think about it, let's rest." Xiyuan said, turning over and closing his heavy eyelids again.

In the silent environment, you can almost feel your own heartbeat and breathing, this strange sound, which has a long history and runs through the valley, must not be an illusion. Tan Lin hesitated for a moment, she took a small searchlight from the bedside, carefully pushed open the carriage door, and walked out. There was a night chandelier in the middle of the car, this soft light was enough to discern the dynamics inside, she glanced left and right, no one was in the car, and simply walked down the corridor to the door.

A light instrument turned, and the door opened, she thought that there would be a cold wind coming towards her, after all, she felt extra cold when she was thinly dressed, but this atmosphere was very strange, she couldn't feel the flow of air, and the inexplicable cold was attached to the flesh, directly freezing the blood inside. She hesitated, with the help of the warning lights of the camp outside, the five tents were closed, surprisingly quiet, and what was even more strange was that there was no He Yongqiang's snoring, his snoring could be heard in the swaying car, through the two carriage doors.

Where have they all gone? The more Tan Lin thought about it, the more she felt that something was wrong, she retreated, and was about to close the car door, when the ethereal voice in her head appeared again. This time it was very clear, like a woman singing, the slender timbre was enchanting and tactful, and couldn't help but make people widen their pores, and go straight to the depths of her heart, her sluggish nerves, looking at the night sky, two mountains called "Dog God", the outline carved in the dark is particularly special, so that she is afraid and dare not look directly. The sound probably came from over there, from the end of this road, the collapsed underground mine! Someone is there! Tan Lin was shocked, her trembling legs almost fell off the escalator of the car door, she leaned against the open glass door, and her whole body was thrown out like this, but she didn't expect to get out of the car in this way.

When she stepped on the cold concrete barefoot, she was full of remorse, and her feet involuntarily sank into it, perhaps because of a strong sense of curiosity, in short, she did not get into the car again. Yes...... Yes...... The ethereal and strange voice bewildered her mind like a spell, Tan Lin swallowed her saliva, turned on the searchlight, and shone a powerful halo of light on the surrounding tents, but no one seemed to be awakened by this dazzling light. Then she realized that the faintly diffused light was not so strong. "Hey, didn't I already change two batteries the night before?" She wondered as the searchlight seemed to be nearing the end of its charge.

Yes...... Yes...... The voice was delicate, without a trace of emotional fluctuations, and with an inexplicable traction, Tan Lin trembled barefoot and walked towards the depths of darkness. There was a tingling sensation on the soles of her delicate feet at first, and the granular pebbles on the ground were so hard that she stopped with every step, but over time, the cold had numbed her nerves. At the same time, she didn't notice that with each step she took, there was an additional layer of shadow wrapped around her ankles. Tan Lin turned her head to look behind her, she was already far away from the camp, and the fog around her enveloped her, and she felt this clear cold, almost suffocating. "Is anyone up front?" She hoarsely turned her head into the depths of the darkness and called out, "I hear you, do you need help?" ”

Oh my, how did I get here, anyway, somebody in the middle of the night! Tan Lin was amazed in her heart and regretted it, it must have been a hot brain, it must have been the dream just now that made me distracted, so I couldn't help myself. She slapped her forehead and prepared to turn away. However, at this moment, a seemingly casual but very strange thing happened. Sneer...... Sneer...... The searchlight clenched in his hand flickered sharply, but it did not go out. "Don't!" Tan Lin let out a low roar, held the searchlight and patted it on the palm of his left hand, it should be that some part inside is not in good contact. She decided not to pay attention to the voice, perhaps it was really a hallucination in her own head, so the others didn't hear it at all, and most importantly, a terrified aura hit her, which made her numb mind even more nervous.

She turned away, and with a halo of light, she hurried toward the camp in the distance, the sound of her messy and hasty bare feet echoing all around, and the sound of small pebbles rolling down on the ground. "Hi, sister." Tan Lin's whole body tensed, and she stopped suddenly, took a deep breath in her mouth, and let out a shocked exclamation. Restless eyes, scanning back and forth, and finally looking behind him with a stiff and slowly turning neck.

Oh my God, at this moment, it almost made her unbelievable, and it also made her collapse, this familiar figure and face, although it was white and terrifying, but the haggard expression in the hospital gown, who else could there be besides her twin sister Tan Su. Tan ...... Tan Su? Su'er...... Yes, really, yes, is that you? Tan Lin was so excited that she couldn't even speak clearly, she shivered, the environment was cold, so that the breath she exhaled also froze, and in the thick and cold fog, her sister's appearance flickered. You, you haven't already, you've ......" Two months ago, Tan Su couldn't still be devastated by the disease, and finally jumped off the roof of the hospital and jumped off the building to commit suicide, she witnessed the horrific and bloody scene, blood and brains splashed on the white chrysanthemum plants a few meters away, soaked in their white petals.

"Sister."

The title of more than 20 years is familiar, which makes Tan Lin more sure that it is her, but the pair of pupils that make the scalp tingle make him afraid. "You, are you really Tan Su? Oh my God, you're still alive, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I, I thought you ...... Do you know? We attended your funeral, and we all thought you were ......" Tan Lin's eyes were filled with tears, excited, she couldn't help but step forward, but she stopped because of reason. "I know you're not going to kill yourself! I know you're not going to kill yourself, but I've seen your body with my own eyes, and my father put your coffin in the grave with his own hands. ”

"Sister, follow me." A figure in the mist, she kept waving her arms. "Follow me, sister."

"Xu'er, I ......"

"You know I'm not going to kill myself, come with me and I'll tell you the truth." The reason why Tan Lin came here was to investigate the real cause of Tan Su's death, and since then, her heart has been shaken. "Quick, sister, come with me, you'll know all this." The blurred figure took a step back, and in the hazy fog, the picture became even more messy. "Sister, come here...... Come here. ”

This ghostly voice touched people's hearts, Tan Lin was struggling frantically in her heart, fear, timidity, longing for family affection, nostalgia, her emotions were messy, and in the end, she raised her right foot.

"Hey!" A low voice sounded behind him, accompanied by a palm tapping on his shoulder, Tan Lin turned around suddenly, the man in front of him looked lazy as if he had just woken up from sleep, he stretched out his arms and yawned, and he was carrying a dark blanket on his right shoulder. "You don't sleep at night, what are you doing here?"

"I ......" Tan Lin didn't know how to answer, and the Mu Yu that appeared in front of her had no warning.

"More than ten meters away, I heard you talking to yourself, I didn't expect you to cry with excitement, what's wrong? Did something happen? Who are you talking to? Mu Tianyu took a step forward, looked straight ahead for a long time, shook his head and sighed: "It's dark in the middle of the night, and there is not a single ghost." ”

Tan Lin came back to her senses, she was stunned, she shook the searchlight in her hand, and after several investigations, she really didn't see anything, just now...... The person who was less than five meters in front just now (Tan Su) disappeared. "You, did you see that? Just now, she, she was there. Tan Lin pointed to the end of the path, in the dark depths, and exclaimed: "She was there just now!" The person I was talking to...... "The lamp in his hand shook violently, and he was hunched on the verge of collapse.

"It's okay, calm down, it might just be an illusion." Mu Tianyu comforted and wrapped the blanket around her violently trembling body. "Oh, oops!" Tan Lin suddenly twitched like a plague. "Hey, look at me, look me in the eye." In a hurry, Mu Tianyu stabilized her shaking head with both hands, and the cold and piercing cheeks were instantly transmitted to the palm, Tan Lin's pupils contracted, the iris spread, and there was a black shadow swimming in it. "Hey, Tan Lin, look at me, can you hear me?" The situation was tense, Mu Tianyu snatched the searchlight in her hand and shone in the other party's eyes. "Tan Lin, I know you can hear me now, listen, you have fallen under the soul hooking Gu spell, if you can't get rid of the nightmare in your heart, your soul will dissipate. It's not easy for you to go all the way, are you just giving up? Do you fall into despair before you see hope? ”

"I, I don't know, you, where are you?" Tan Lin sobbed, tears pouring out of her eyes, crossing her cheeks and soaking Mu Tianyu's hands. She was suddenly in a separate world, her mind was in the dark, her eyes were blinded and she could not see anything, except for the extremely strong light, it had no effect, in the world of the mind, she opened her hands and touched a piece of nothingness, wandering in the darkness where she could not see her fingers.

"I'm right there with you, you don't have to worry, and you don't have to be afraid. You try to calm down now, follow my rhythm, and ...... Suck...... Call...... Suck...... Call...... Suck ......" Tan Lin stopped her aimless movements, and with the beat of her breathing, her nervous emotions gradually calmed down. "yes, that's it, good, yes, you're doing well." Mu Tianyu let go of her hands, and her convulsive whole body finally calmed down, but her eyes were still confused by the shadows. Now Tan Lin's world does not belong to the other world or the rift of time and space, this only exists in her own spiritual world, and no one can go in to help her except herself. "My voice is hovering right around you, maybe left, right...... Or the back, the front, can you sense it? ”

"Well, I, I heard ......" Tan Lin breathed a long sigh of relief and was about to ask and leave.

"Wait! Don't, don't move! "Mu Tianyu is more nervous than her at this time, there is no way, all the abilities she has at present cannot get involved in the other party's spiritual world to save her." Listen, what I'm going to say next, you don't have to be nervous, you can't be nervous! Do you understand? Mu Tianyu said word by word, and the sweat from his forehead dripped down his chest.
