Chapter 2: The Evil Gaze
On this day, Li Yin came to Yingziye's house again.
She always kept her room tidy and the floor always clean, which was rare, as no resident would have that kind of mind.
When Li Yin entered the door, she was wearing a pair of black-rimmed glasses, which seemed to be looking at something?
"Miss Ying...... Are you looking at something? β
"Well, collating notes and all kinds of news from previous years." After Ying Ziye let Li Yin enter the living room, he said, "Do you want to drink tea?" β
"No...... No, I'm not thirsty. Speaking of which, are you used to living there? β
"It's okay...... she asked Li Yin to sit down, and then she sat down herself, and said, "After investigating and finding out...... The blood characters arranged in the apartment, basically without exception, will appear evil ghosts and ghosts, but ...... I found that ghosts without a source or origin account for a large proportion. β
"yes......"
"And there is no pattern, it seems that it just blindly plunges you into a terrifying situation and kills you one by one." Midnight took off his glasses and said, "But it seems that those who can survive can gradually grasp the 'way of life' of the blood character." The hidden 'way of life' is the key. β
"Yes......" Li Yin nodded and said: "The issue of 'life path' is very important, but it is difficult to grasp the law, and it is also a problem that Xia Yuan and others have been studying......"
"Well, I'm going to talk to you about two of the more important examples. Specifically......"
Speaking of this, her expression suddenly changed, and she covered her left chest with her hand! Then his hand slammed heavily on the couch, and his face was full of pain......
Heartburning!
So soon the first blood word was released?
Immediately, Li Yin turned his head to look at the wall...... On the walls, a large amount of blood began to flow out of the walls, forming handwriting......
"This ......" Ying Ziye gradually felt the pain begin to dissipate, looked at the wall, and muttered, "This is the ...... Blood indications? β
The scribble on the wall reads: "From August 16 to 20, 2010, I went to a Western-style villa on the left side of Zhuofeng Road on the outskirts of K City, and three maple trees were planted in the courtyard of the villa." As a reminder, after staying in the villa, the ghost will transform into something very normal in the villa, so that you will not be able to notice it. Anyone who can find the avatar of the ghost will be able to leave the villa before the deadline ends. β
The burning sensation in Yingziye's heart had stopped at this moment, but her forehead was already full of beads of sweat. Then, the line of blood disappeared as if it had seeped into the wall.
At the same time, there were three other people who also received the blood word instructions at the same time.
One of them is Sachiko Oda, who lives on the fourth floor.
"Haunted house? Find a ghost avatar and leave? She looked at the bloody letter, her brow furrowing. Seem...... What's wrong......
There are two other people, Xia Yuan and Tang Wenshan in Room 502.
The blood characters under these special conditions are extremely concerning. Xia Yuan was particularly uneasy, after experiencing five blood words, how could he not know what terrible phenomenon must be hidden behind this special condition?
However...... Next, in the hall on the ground floor, Xia Yuan and the other three were extremely stunned to see Yingziye!
"How...... How can it be! Xia Yuan closed his mouth in shock: "You have just entered the apartment, the first time you executed the blood characters, I am the executor of the blood characters five times, and Oda Kiri Sachiko and Tang Wenshan have also executed the blood characters four times!" You...... How do you ......"
The difference is too great! Nothing like this has ever happened before!
"Yes...... "Sachiko Oda was also puzzled: "It's incredible...... Impossible. You...... Is it really the first time to execute the blood letter? β
But there is no doubt about it. Ying Ziye is the resident who succeeded Ye Kexin.
However, Ying Ziye didn't react much, saying: "This is a blessing or a curse, and there is no way to predict." Maybe I have a special surname......"
Although she seemed very indifferent, Li Yin noticed that her pupils were rolling a little uneasily.
When I came to Xia Yuan's house, as soon as I sat down, Xia Yuan's opening remarks were like this: "This is really surprising to me...... Very few residents receive a blood letter on the day they move in...... In the past, the old residents did not tell me such a precedent. β
Under normal circumstances, there will indeed be people with different numbers of executions of the blood character index for the same blood word indication, but the difference is generally not too large. For example, the second and third together, or the fourth and fifth together...... The first execution of the blood letter instruction and the sixth implementation of the blood letter instruction of the senior household......
It's so unusual.
Who is she? Why did the apartment treat her differently?
Xia Yuan, Yingziye, Oda Kiri Sachiko and others sat together and began to discuss their plans for the present day.
"I don't know why there are these special treatments," Ying Ziye said indifferently: "However, there is a potential crisis in the blood letter indication this time. I don't know, have you noticed? β
"Crisis?" Xia Yuan asked puzzledly, "What crisis?" β
"Find the thing that the ghost incarnates and you can go back to the apartment early. It's a good condition, which means that you have a better chance of survival. But is that really the case? β
Xia Yuan didn't understand Yingziye's words, but Li Yin had already understood them, and said to her, "Miss Ying, what do you mean...... It's more dangerous for us, isn't it? Because, if you can leave early, it means that you have found out where the ghost is...... Normally we try to avoid contact with ghosts, but now the apartment forces us to face ghosts. β
"That's a point. But that's not all. Ying Ziye pointed to the wall and said, "The instructions of the blood characters are very vague. How do you find out? What form does the ghost incarnate into? Maybe it's a pot of flowers, maybe it's a painting, maybe it's a water stain...... And who knows if it will change form? And to find out, do you perceive that it is a ghost, or guess that it is a ghost? Do you have to say it if you find out, or do you understand it in your heart? Is being told by others to 'find out'? If that thing turns into a ghost and appears in front of you, does it count as 'finding out'? β
Indeed, find out, it's a very vague concept, Ying Ziye is right.
And if you get this concept wrong and leave the designated place, the consequences are ...... Disastrous!
"Then there's the problem. What can we do because we don't understand the concept? At the very least, you have to be sure that you have found the ghost. That would inevitably make a move, and all the others would find a way to find out how he found it from the people who found it. And if the person who finds it doesn't say that he only cares about running for his own life, then I'm afraid that the others will not give up. β
Ying Ziye's words hit the nail on the head, and Li Yin immediately understood.
"Someone will ...... Cannibalism? β
"Who knows. Surnames are the most elusive. Compared to ghosts, I think humans are much more terrifying. β
Ying Ziye's words, Li Yin also agreed. Although the current residents of the apartment are of the same mind, in order to survive, the selfishness of the surname will also be exposed......
That's the scariest thing!
"Listen up...... Xia Yuan took a deep breath and said, "The day after tomorrow will be the designated time." I think I'll go to the point tomorrow to find out where the villa is. It seems that the blood letter instructions are not very clear, and at that time, we will have to be confined to the villa and not be able to go out, I can ask the people around the villa to see if it is possible to hear that someone has died in the villa, maybe there will be clues...... When the time comes, we will contact us on our mobile phones. β
Second, Xia Yuan set foot on the road to the outskirts of the city. The only thing I know at present is the villa on Zhuofeng Road and the three maple trees in the courtyard.
Xia Yuan felt strongly uneasy at the moment...... The special circumstances of Ying Ziye, as well as the strange conditions of this blood character, seem to be a huge trap.
This time, the blood letter indication is too weird......
If it was usual, he wouldn't have come over to investigate in advance so hastily, but this time the uneasiness was too strong and made him restless.
Xia Yuan drove the car and walked on the tree-lined path, at this time the sun was shining, and the flowers were everywhere, looking peaceful. But Xia Yuan felt that the front was as terrifying as a huge black hole that devoured people.
When he finally came to Zhuofeng Road, Xia Yuan slowed down the speed of the car very slowly, and looked carefully at the two sides, there were many buildings, but they were all far from the word "villa".
In the apartment, Yingzi Ye has already begun to pack her belongings. There is plenty of food in the refrigerator, and if you save food, five days is enough to sustain it.
Once packed, with a map, she was ready to go.
At this time, there was a knock on the door.
"It's me, Miss Ying."
It's Li Yin.
She opened the door and asked, "Is there something wrong?" Mr. Lee? β
"Miss Ying......" Li Yin seemed to hesitate for a long time before handing her a notebook and said, "This is what I wrote...... Based on my experience over the past year, I have summarized some rules. You can take a look at it, refer to the reference. β
Ying Ziye was slightly stunned, took the note, flipped through it slightly, her expression changed a little, and then she asked, "Why help me?" Is this good for you? β
Li Yin was a little embarrassed, but in the face of Ying Ziye's gaze, he still replied, "That's it...... Want to help you...... It's as simple as that. Of course, you can only refer to the content on the note, and it may not necessarily develop according to the rules of note writing. β
"No, I feel valuable." Ying Ziye closed the note and said, "Thank you very much for your note." β
"If I can help you...... That's it. β
And at this time, Xia Yuan, who was on the outskirts of the city, a slightly dilapidated bungalow caught his attention.
It was indeed a villa, two stories high, covering a large area, with a silver faΓ§ade, a spire-like Western-style building, an iron fence on the outside, and indeed three maple trees in the courtyard.
This is it!
Xia Yuan immediately stopped the car and began to get nervous. After all...... It's too close to a haunted house. And I don't know if it's a psychological effect, but the bright sunshine I felt just now suddenly became gloomy and gloomy, and there were many withered flowers and plants around.
At this time, his car was about a hundred meters away from the villa.
He had already dared not go any further, and even reversed the car a little.
Picking up a black briefcase at his feet, he took out a telescope from it and began to use it to look at the villa.
First of all, he took out a botanical illustrated book and compared it with the maple trees in the courtyard to make sure that it was indeed a maple tree. Immediately, he moved the telescope to the window on the first floor.
I'm going to move in before midnight tonight......
From the window, it appears to be a bedroom, as a bed is faintly visible inside.
Then Xia Yuan moved the telescope to the window on the second floor.
And what he saw was...... In front of the window stood a man dressed in black, with long hair and a shawl, with a rotten and festering face, a completely broken chin, and only connected by the tendons under his mouth...... Person! On that face, a pair of blood-red pupils were staring at the front, as if they were looking at Xia Yuan!
Xia Yuan's telescope fell sharply at his feet.
Even though it was more than a hundred meters away, he was terrified.
Pick up the binoculars and take a look at the ...... In front of the window on the second floor, there was no one left.
To live in such a haunted house? Still trying to find out this ghost?
Even Xia Yuan felt that it was better for him to do that than to commit suicide. Staying in that place for a minute is a huge torture! And the apartment wants them to stay for five whole days?
He's starting to regret coming here sooner.
Without thinking about it, Xia Yuan began to reverse, and made up his mind that he must find a way to find some clues so that he could know the true face of this ghost!
