Chapter 4 Wax Museum

The frightening sequence is first association, followed by intuition. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info those ......who claim that "this is what my intuition tells me, that a woman's sixth sense, that my intuition is accurate, and so on" are not reliable! All this is after the associated speculation has been generated, and in the field of analysis, there is a technical term that interprets it: the Thor effect.

At the age of 30, he became a professor of biology, and the most famous theoretical experiment is the childcare effect. He placed the newborn rats in two different environments, one was normal and the other was its own. In a normal environment, a mouse is obviously more sensitive to different frequencies around it than another mouse. For example, when a cat meows, it will have a strong sense of fear and run in all directions, while the other will take it for granted, even if a behemoth appears in front of it, it will "not be afraid of danger".

Later, experiments with the childcare effect were widely used, and it was found that if a person did not know what evil spirits, ghosts, and ghosts were from an early age, he would naturally not be afraid when he faced them. Therefore, some descendants have proposed that intuition is based on the chain reaction of thinking, which is essentially the outcome of the brain after connecting the thinking at an abnormal operating speed.

Therefore, when the old man in front of him mentioned the wax museum, a bad omen appeared in the depths of Mu Tianyu's heart. The cold wind howled outside the window, and between the cracks in the door, whining...... Whining...... The low chant is even more eerie.

"Sit down, I'll pour you a cup of coffee." The old man in the hotel motioned for Mu Tianyu to sit down, because the next story could not be explained in a few words. "If someone tells you about it, you will doubt the truth of the story, and you will only think that it is just a story, but if this story is to be conveyed to you. I don't expect you to trust me, and if so, wouldn't I indirectly agree that I'm a madman? Hehe......" The old man smiled helplessly, and slowly sat down on the back chair of the sofa.

[The legend of the wax museum has been around since my time, and its existence should be older than the history of this town itself, even my elders are like children in front of it.

For as long as I can remember, the first feeling it gave me was hell on earth, terrifying. It is spread in the town, and the children around it have long been familiar with it, and sometimes if a mistake is made, the loud shouts of the adults may not be useful, however, if the wrongdoer is caught in the wax museum, I am afraid that the punishment is more deterrent than whipping.

In short, the wax museum, it is the face of death, the source of fear. A place full of strange and mysteries, this terrifying wax museum appears every full moon night. No one can come and depict it, because no one can come out of this place of death alive. In fact...... Not really, a long, long time ago, a few children, because they climbed over the wall at night and broke the candles in the school, were afraid of being discovered by the superintendents and suffered education, so they took advantage of the night to sneak out.

A few children, never far from the town, but late that night, the air was filled with a swirling smoke, they were attached to the greed/lust of the human heart, what the children longed for was to have fun, in that charming melody, as if slightly tempting, a few children, step by step, stepped out of the town.

Yes, as you might have guessed, one of those children was me, and I was only 11 years old at the time. There were seven people who escaped from the academy together, but only four actually ended up outside the town, after all, not all of them were born with courage, or rather, arrogance.

It was a hot summer, because I still remember wearing a short-sleeved T-shirt, but because I was shirtless and was patronized by mosquitoes at night, I regretted that I didn't have a long-sleeved shirt before sneaking out. But no one could have imagined that we would slip into the dense forest outside the town. The big bald head of the leader kept complaining that the candlelight behind the screen was not broken by him at all, but the eyes of the crowd were bright, and I could see it very clearly, just because of his naturally restless arms. But at the end of the day, I'm also responsible, and who would have guessed that playing a game of cat and mouse in the middle of the night would go wrong and almost get caught by the custodians.

On this road, he has the most words about the big bald head, as the name suggests, he has shaved his head, and his head is relatively large, so this nickname is also called loudly. Even at the east gate of the town, when the words "bald little egg" are mentioned, some people know who it refers to, and the naughty little bald head has long been notorious.

There was also a boy who was not a good man, but he was notoriously bold, and it was his idea to propose to run away from the school, and he was "bold" as his name suggested. It is said that he also committed murder, just because the neighbor's dog tore up his homework, this little guy was so bold that he took off the dog's head, his face was splashed with blood, and his whole body was stained with scarlet dog blood. At that time, he was discovered by a middle-aged man who delivered newspapers, and he was so frightened that he lost his bicycle and fled, even rolling and climbing, thinking that he had seen a ghost in broad daylight.

Later, this kid went to the school, in front of the teacher, he also behaved nonsense, ignoring the school rules, however, he didn't know that the school picked such a person to rectify, so as to kill the chicken to show the monkey, he happened to indirectly become an innocent "victim", but his temper is much better now, I suspect that he fell under the teacher's spell, so he will fight injustice and become the embodiment of self-proclaimed justice.

The remaining child is a girl, she is not charming and lovely, and she doesn't know what a fair lady is, but she has a simple and innocent smile! Chen Fang, that's right, as her name is, beautiful and fragrant, and it is precisely because of this beautiful smile that I am completely fascinated and bow down under her pomegranate skirt. Of course, the shy love of childhood was ignorant at all, and I only understood one truth at the time, that is, wherever she went, I followed her. Even if I go up the mountain and down the sea of fire, I will never frown.

So that night, I followed the bald and bold footsteps, all because of Chen Fang's curiosity, otherwise I would not have been lost in the depths of the dense forest, unable to find the way to come. However, this incident completely aroused the power of the wilderness in my heart, because I couldn't bear the girl I loved, snuggled in the arms of others. Looking at the sobbing Chen Fang, leaning on his bold shoulder, and being comforted by him, I was very unhappy, but as soon as I stepped forward, I was frightened by those fierce eyes.

The cry of the night crow lingers over the secluded forest, and although the summer night breeze is cool, it can penetrate into people's hearts, and make people feel depressed and uncomfortable. Being in the wilderness, a glimmer of light in the dark night in the distance quickly caught our attention. 】

At this point, the old man of the inn got up and poured another cup of coffee, and when he walked through the window, he paused, staring at the faint moonlight, and the silver glow as thin as a veil was reflected on his sparse face, which was even more vicissitudes.

"Are you okay?" Mu Tianyu, who was sitting on the sofa, asked, he could see that the old man was in a low mood, and at the same time he was a little nostalgic for the past, but also full of remorse.

"It's fine." The old man smiled, very weak. "Would you like another drink?" He gestured as he held up the empty glass in his hand.

Mu Tianyu shook his head and smiled: "Thank you, if you drink again, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep at night." ”

"It's a long night, it's destined to be a sleepless night." The old man let out a long sigh, and his thoughts returned to his memory.

[For the sudden life-saving grass, our four children were very happy, and soon, under the leadership of the bald head, we swarmed up, and everyone speculated that it was possible to return to the town, after all, we were lost in the woods, maybe we hit by mistake, and we returned along the way we came.

"Oh, thank goodness, I thought we were lost." The bald head who walked in the front must have seen the movement of the light, and he turned to us and said, "What should I do, is it time to go back to the school or?" ”

"Of course I'm back in school!" I looked at Chen Fang's anxious look, crying red eyes, pitiful, she hurriedly said: "Even if we are punished by the teacher, it is deserved, who told us not to rest in the middle of the night, we have to catch cats and mice!" ”

Then the bold also nodded in agreement: "Okay, then let's go back to the school, by the way, we must not say anything about going out, the supervisor already hates us for breaking the candlelight, if he knows, I will take you and slip away, and you won't peel my skin alive!" He looked at me with a menacing look, presumably speaking to me. Hey, Duanmu Kid! Do you hear that? If you dare to speak up! Don't blame me......" He raised his fists and bared his teeth, intimidating me.

However, at this moment, we were all attracted by a confused voice, which was the voice from the bald head. "W-what is this place?" Ten meters away, I saw a light purple glow on his puzzled face, and then I followed his astonished gaze. 】

"And you saw that mysterious and weird wax museum?" Before the story stated by the old man was finished, he was interrupted by the other party, and his puzzled eyes looked at Mu Tianyu. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt you, you ......" Mu Tianyu pointed to his nose and said softly: "You, you have a nosebleed." ”

"Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry." The old man stood up awkwardly and took out a handkerchief from his bosom.

In an instant, Mu Tianyu's eyes were stunned, he frowned, and he captured a small detail in the scene just now. The old man pulled out a handkerchief, but before he could touch the nosebleed, blood was stuck on it, to be exact, coagulated blood. "You, are you okay?" Mu Tianyu speculated that his nosebleed problem was not accidental, but should be a long-term symptom. Reason 1: He never leaves his handkerchief and is always ready to use it; Reason 2: The handkerchief itself has been stained with blood, judging from the coagulated blood stains, the time is no more than a day; Reason 3: The material fiber of the handkerchief has been seriously dehydrated, dry and rough on the surface, it should be soaked every day, presumably to clean up the blood stains on it.

"Don't worry." The old man shook his head and sighed, wiping the nosebleed, very strange, he didn't take any precautions at all, and the bleeding stopped, as if the pool of blood was regular and fixed. "When people are old, their immunity is not as good as that of you young people, and I don't know how long I can live." He sat back on the couch, reached for his glass, and took a sip.

"This hotel, is that yours?" Mu Tianyu noticed the mural behind the front desk, the photo frame was a few years old, but compared to the photo, it looked young. Looking at the background inside, the burgundy pickup truck was almost a product of ten years ago.

"How can I see that a bad old man like me should just be a part-time worker who can barely make ends meet." The old man said indifferently: "But a person like you may not necessarily work in the geological exploration institute. Mu Tianyu's hand holding the water cup couldn't help but tremble slightly, making a light shake. Hehe. The old man smiled: "When you took out your documents just now, you deliberately dragged out your work permit as well." If others see it, they will not doubt it. But I'm half in the ground, and I'm naturally well-informed, your hands. The old man smiled and pointed to Mu Tianyu's hand that raised his glass. People who have studied the soil all year round should have rough palms, but you have calluses on the back of your hands, and the bones of your hands are larger than ordinary people, so you must often hit heavy objects, if you are a boxer, I will definitely not hesitate. ”

Mu Tianyu smiled awkwardly, pretending to be mysterious, and called up the proof of work, but he had already been informed by the other party. "I'm so sorry."

"No, it doesn't matter, everyone has their own way of doing things, and you don't have to feel bad about it."

The night is difficult to be quiet, in the quiet town, a candlelight flows quietly, and in the hall of the hotel, two people sit around, telling or listening to the past.

The night was deeper, and the cold wind was even more unbridled, and they swept away, and the untouched land tore apart the protection of the dense forest. Yarn ...... Yarn ...... With the fierce and irritable bursts of nature, in a few flashlights, the disturbed branches began to show their teeth and claws, revealing angry expressions.

"Forget it, I think it's better to go back, we don't know each other well, and it's the middle of the night!" Among the six, the last young man whispered, reflecting the light of the flashlight, and he was looking at everything around him. The long clothes that were blown by the cold wind were like someone desperately dragging them behind them. Song Ji stopped, turned around, and shone an electric light on the young man's face. "Hey, what are you doing!" The young man roared, reaching out to block the glare of light in front of him.

Song Ji took a deep breath and removed the flashlight from the young man's body, then looked at the woman next to him. "I said Zhang Jing, the person was brought by you, if you have an opinion, you can turn around and leave, no one will stop you, but since you want to follow, don't twitter in the back."

Zhang Jing didn't say anything, she looked at her boyfriend helplessly, Song Ji was her colleague again, and she didn't know how to weigh it. However, at this moment, the blonde woman walking alone next to her spoke. "I think Zhao Xing said it well, it's so late, it's not suitable for exploration, it's good to wait for tomorrow during the day, don't be in a hurry."

"Zhao Xing?" Song Ji said coldly: "I've only known him for a long time, and I know his name." ”

"Zhang Jing said, of course I remember, but it's not like you...... Hmph, my brain isn't broken. The woman looked mocking.

"You ......" In the dense forest, there was another scolding. (To be continued.) )
