After a day of terrifying adventures, in the dormitory where pilgrims were received in Qixia Ancient Temple, Li Bing did not dare to turn off the lights, tossing and turning, and did not feel sleepy.

Li Bing thought of Yu Ru, and involuntarily dialed Yu Ru's phone, the strange thing is that Yu Ru didn't turn on today, and there was only a voice prompt sound that couldn't be connected from the phone. Li Bing smiled bitterly, he thought that it might be that Yu Ru was jealous when she saw Zhao Wan'er following him to Qixia Mountain.

While he was thinking wildly, the door of the dormitory knocked softly, and Li Bing was so shocked that the teacup in his hand fell to the ground. Suddenly, out of the corner of his eye, he saw the figure of a woman in white suddenly coming over, and Li Bing was so frightened that he couldn't say a word. I saw the woman in white floating looming beside him, her long hair was scattered, and she couldn't see her face clearly. Slowly, the long hair of the woman in white began to float up, revealing a miserable white face, Li Bing was shocked in his heart, this face was so familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it.

Li Bing's mouth was wide open, his heart was extremely frightened, but he couldn't say a word. The woman in white had gloomy eyes, and two indifferent eyes stared directly at Li Bing. After a while, the terrifyingly white face gradually changed, the muscles on the face continued to atrophy, and finally, it turned into a skeleton, and the two black hole eye sockets were facing Li Bing's eyes.

Li Bing trembled with fright, and felt a tingling pain in his arm. Suddenly, everything lit up as if nothing had happened, the fluorescent lamp in the dormitory was still on, but the teacup on the table was poured aside, and the steaming tea was spilled on his arm. It turned out that I was so nervous that I fell asleep on the table and had a nightmare.

Li Bing breathed a long sigh of relief, calmed down, and just cleaned up the water traces on the table, the door of the squatter room really knocked lightly three times, Li Bing was stunned, but heard Zhao Wan'er say softly outside: "Brother Li didn't sleep, right?" Can I come in? ”

Li Bing wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and secretly scolded himself for being so cowardly, it was really embarrassing to let people know. Clearing his throat, Li Bing tried to make himself a calm voice: "Miss Wan'er, haven't you slept yet?" Can I help you? Please come in. ”

Zhao Wan'er pushed open the hidden door and walked in with a nervous face: "Brother Li, there have been too many strange things in the past few days, I am a little scared, plus I haven't eaten, and I am so hungry that I panic, so I want to disturb Brother Li and come to talk." ”

Li Bing saw Zhao Wan'er's scared look, and the machismo in his heart made him no longer feel afraid, and he only felt that the weak woman in front of him needed his protection and comfort.

The two chatted widely, and when they talked about the food of Nanjing Confucius Temple, they suddenly felt a rumbling in their stomachs, so they kept silent.

Zhao Wan'er asked Li Bing with a smile: "Brother Li, why do you like a person to talk to himself inexplicably and say something that no one understands?" ”

Li Bing laughed: "Won't it?" You only came from Shanghai last night, we met for the first time, and I talked to myself in front of you? ”

Zhao Wan'er grinned and said, "So you don't think it yourself?" When I first saw you yesterday, I thought you were weird, and I couldn't figure out how my dad would sponsor a weirdo like you to study for a master's degree. ”

Li Bing smiled: "Meng Zhao is appreciated, I, Li Bing, will definitely live up to his old man's kindness." The words changed: "I saw you and Xiao Wang yesterday with strange eyes, I thought you rich people looked down on ordinary people like me." ”

Zhao Wan'er laughed: "I'm not such a person!" When I entered the hotel yesterday, there were only three of us, but there were four pairs of dishes and chopsticks, and you said to the empty seat on the side that your girlfriend's name was Yu Ru, and then you ran out of the private room for some reason, and turned back to the elevator, I thought you were a madman. ”

When Li Bing heard this, his heart shook suddenly: "What did you say?" You really didn't see my girlfriend? There was a hint of fear on his face.

Zhao Wan'er looked at the change in Li Bing's expression, and said puzzledly, "What's wrong?" Do you think I'm kidding? It was really just the three of us, and there was no one else there except for a waiter. ”

Li Bing's mouth opened wide, he didn't say a word, his scalp was numb, and his mind was thinking about all these incredible things, and he thought of the strange eyes that the stall owner looked at him every time he went to that night stall with Yu Ru. Could it be that others really can't see Yu Ru? So Yu Ru... Could it be that she is not human?

As soon as this thought moved, yellow sweat immediately oozed out of Li Bing's forehead.

After a while, Li Bing suddenly said to Zhao Wan'er: "Wan'er, did you take a group photo of us when you were in the stall yesterday?" Take it out and I'll take a look. ”

Zhao Wan'er nodded, a little inexplicable, but still took out the Canon digital camera from the shoulder bag she was carrying.

Zhao Wan'er flipped out the photo, and from the display screen, she only saw Zhao Wan'er smiling with Li Bing, nothing special, she handed the camera to Li Bing.

Li Bing took the camera and stared at it, there was indeed no Yu Ru on it, but he clearly remembered that the vacant seat on the photo was really sitting with a somewhat unhappy face Yu Ru.

The fear and suspicion in his heart became heavier and heavier, Li Bing recalled the first time he saw Yu Ru, that night, the sound of the drum tower bell that he had never heard before could clearly reach his ears, and he heard the cry of a baby that night. Whenever he saw Yu Ru, every time it was at night, and the night he saw Yu Ru, he clearly heard the bell of the drum tower.

In the Ming Tomb, he clearly remembered Yu Ru's unexpected appearance, when he felt that the surrounding air was pressing, and he heard the cry of a frightened woman from the side of the square building.

Li Bing thought of what the monk said that he had blackened in the morning in Yintang, maybe he was entangled in dirty things, and suddenly understood that Yu Ru was really not a person, but a female ghost that no one had ever seen in the legend.

Zhao Wan'er looked at Li Bing, who was in a cold sweat on her head, and asked with concern, "Brother Li, what's wrong with you?" It can't be sick, right? ”

Li Bing shook his head, looked at Zhao Wan'er, and stopped talking. couldn't help Zhao Wan'er's repeated urgings, Li Bing had to tell Zhao Wan'er how she met Yu Ru, how she became friends, and a series of strange things and plates.

After Zhao Wan'er listened, she was also frightened, and because she was afraid, she unconsciously held Li Bing's hand tightly.

Li Bing said with a pale face: "Although it is now certain that Yu Ru is not human, I really can't believe this fact, I hope it is a nightmare." It's just that I can't figure it out, since she is a female ghost, why has she been so good to me for so many days, without the slightest intention of murdering? And I once sent her downstairs to the dormitory of the Drum Tower Hospital, and saw her go upstairs and turn on the electric light, how can I explain this? ”

Zhao Wan'er saw Li Bing's scared and sad expression, and comforted him: "Maybe Yu Ru is just a kind female ghost, she contacted you because you can see her, and she has no ill will towards you." Otherwise, when the morning comes, we will return to Nanjing, and I will accompany you to the Drum Tower Hospital to inquire if there is such a person as Yu Ru. If she's really a female ghost, then you'll have to find a way to get rid of her entanglement. ”

Li Bing nodded, and Zhao Wan'er saw the mobile phone that Li Bing was still holding tightly in his hand, and persuaded him not to think about it anymore, and to wait for dawn to make plans.

Li Bing reminded Zhao Wan'er, and suddenly woke up, he didn't seem to be so scared anymore, and said to Zhao Wan'er: "Wan'er, are you afraid?" Every time I see Yu Ru, I can hear the bell of the drum tower. Now in Qixia Temple, I didn't hear the bell of the drum tower, and I couldn't get through to Yu Ru's phone before you came in. I still want to try it now, call her again, she never turns off her phone. ”

Zhao Wan'er nodded: "It's false to say that I'm not afraid, but this is in the temple, and I don't think the demons and demons dare to come." You call and try, if you get through, I hold my breath and don't speak, and you try to pretend to talk to her like usual, don't show anything unusual. ”

Li Bing calmed down for a moment and slowly dialed Yu Ru's number, but there was still a voice prompt on the phone that could not be connected.

Looking at the watch on her wrist, Zhao Wan'er suddenly said: "Brother Li, I have seen a supernatural story, it is said that at 12 o'clock in the middle of the night, dial 13 zeros in a row to connect to the underworld." It's 12 o'clock in five minutes, or you can try it, dial 13 zeros and then call Yu Ru, if it does, then it's completely certain that Yu Ru has already died. ”

Li Bing hummed, poured a glass of boiling water, and didn't feel hot, so he drank a few sips. Then he lit a cigarette and stared nervously at the time on his phone.
