Chapter 16 Reasons for Not Turning Back
Wen Xuehui was walking around the direction of Songtian Road, which was close to Beiyao Road, which was relatively empty, which made her feel a little relieved. The wheezing behind him was gone.
She kept making crosses on her chest with both hands, praying for her blessings. Since entering the apartment, she has been in and out of the church frequently, hoping to escape the threat of ghosts with God's blessings.
Although I don't know if it's useful, Wen Xuehui is unwilling to give up adhering to the idea of "faith is spiritual, and if you don't believe it, it doesn't work".
As she walked, she suddenly stopped.
Fear poured down like a basin of ice water, and every pore of the body began to burst with chills.
Hair......
Something like hair touched her back!
Hair!
Woman's hair!
The hair kept drifting and fiddling, and Wen Xuehui's feet continued to tremble. She simply couldn't imagine that behind ...... Really appeared......
No...... Run, run!
But the foot did not obey the call at all, and wanted to escape, but there seemed to be an invisible force to stop her.
The hair is constantly hanging down.
"Ah...... Ah......h
As if she was speechless, Wen Xuehui at this moment was like a puppet with a broken thread. She wanted to struggle, but she couldn't.
Go back......
Like a demon's whisper, the voice kept coming to her heart.
Go back and see......
See what that is......
Cold sweat continued to pour out on his forehead, his hands were clenched tightly, and his heart was beating violently.
Finally she lifted her legs and lunged forward!
Stumbled several steps and almost fell. At this moment, she felt as if her strength had been drained, and she couldn't run fast no matter how she ran.
After running for a while, Wen Xuehui had just time to stop......
Behind me, I felt the touch of the hair again!
Looking back......
Let's take a step back......
This voice, the evil voice, kept sounding in Wen Xuehui's mind. It was always urging her to want to go back. The neck also seemed to stiffen.
Let's go back......
The hair began to hang down and kept coming back.
An aura of death began to approach behind him......
Finally, Wen Xuehui suddenly turned her neck and turned her head ......
Back in the past!
What is it?
What is it?
What the hell is it?
"Ahhh......h
Constantly panting, Wen Xuehui felt that her heart was about to jump out of her body, her eyes widened, and her pupils seemed to open her sockets and look behind her.
However......
Behind him, there was no one. Nothing was visible except for the occasional cold wind that blew.
No?
Nothing?
How could it not be?
Wen Xuehui had already turned her head, but she didn't turn her head easily, still looking behind her.
Don't miss anything...... Maybe where to hide......
More than twelve meters behind her was an old house waiting to be demolished, which was already dilapidated. Looking next to it, there are some garbage walls built up.
Since Wen Xuehui has turned around, she ...... I didn't dare to turn my head back again.
Maybe if you look back, the ghost will reappear behind you.
However, no matter how long I looked at it, there was no sign of the ghost.
Isn't it?
Absence? Is that a delusion? Hallucination? Still is......
Wen Xuehui finally turned her head back slowly.
But at this moment, I felt like my hair was touching behind me! She immediately turned back to her, but ...... Still didn't see anything.
Wen Xuehui gasped and stared at ...... with wide eyes
Why not?
Why......
She turned back again and ran as hard as she could. At this moment, her spirit was on the verge of collapse. I thought it would be just the second blood word, and it wouldn't be too difficult, but ......
She clearly underestimated the apartment.
At the same time, the stars are finally reaching their limits.
The fear constantly pressed my nerves, and I never looked back, but always suspected that there was something behind me...... He kept pinching the glass prosthetic eye in his hand, but he didn't dare to get it in front of him. Who knows, if you really see that ghost, will you die?
There is no guarantee that my brother's inference will be correct!
A sense of powerlessness continued to sink over him, and the darkness around him became more and more intense. The light had never been so far away from him as it was now.
Only...... Find a way to go to the house that is separated from Wen Xuehui's three people...... Meet them again? And again......
But when I thought about it, something terrible happened first.
At this time, Xingchen was next to a house. Where he had just walked, there was clearly a door. And it's about five steps through that door......
Behind him, there was the sound of the door being opened......
The sound of the doorknob turning......
The sound of the door being pushed open......
And then there'......
The sound of the door slamming shut!
A violent chill invaded Xingchen's back, and he immediately accelerated his pace, not daring to turn around and keep pulling away from the "thing" behind him!
No...... No!
Don't follow me!
However, the thing behind him was clearly following him. No matter how you go, you follow him like a shadow.
The glass prosthetic eye kept pinching in the palm of his hand, but he never dared to take it out to look at it.
I'm really an incompetent person......
If it's an older brother...... If it were him, he wouldn't be so powerless, would he? However, it is useless to say anything now.
Maybe I really can't go back to the apartment......
Some time ago, I also went to stop Min, who committed suicide. But perhaps...... That just makes her experience more horrors in the future.
He raised his hand holding the glass prosthetic eye and slowly spread out his palm.
This is the last chance...... If you lose, it's all over.
Finally...... Xingchen, bring the glass prosthetic eye in front of you! Look carefully at the ...... reflected in the glass prosthetic eye The scene behind your own scenes!
And then......
Stars......
Saw something that almost made him scream!
Wen Xuehui couldn't run anymore. Her shoes were worn out and she even stumbled and fell. But she kept running.
Minutes and seconds passed.
But it's still very far from midnight.
She looked back again.
Still nothing. The wind is blowing, houses, trees, etc., etc......
Nothing...... Why nothing?
I can't stand it anymore...... Wen Xuehui leaned down again, panting.
There is nothing behind him......
Xingchen spread out his palm and saw the prosthetic eye.
In fact, when I dug it up just now, I didn't pay close attention to it.
But if you look closely now, you'll see ......
This is fundamentally ...... It's the eyes of a living man!
Why does I have a living eye when I have long lost my right eye?
In Min's mind, the scene of the painting painted by Deep Rain always came to mind.
The painting depicts five people: Bian Xingchen, Liu Xiang, Sun Jian, Wen Xuehui and Lu Ye. All five people in the painting have turned their heads. And behind everyone, there is a blurred black shadow. Each of the five black shadows stretched out their hands and plucked off the two eyeballs of the five people, and stuffed the other two eyeballs into their sockets!
The eyes of these five people have all been replaced!
Not only the vision, but also the stars can clearly feel it when they touch the eyeball...... That's a real creature eyeball! How can it be?
Next, a terrifying question arises.
Since it has been replaced with a real eyeball......
So why can't I see with my right eye?
The only explanation is ......
Until I took out the eyeball, there was something blocking the view of my right eye......
Xingchen raised his hand slightly and touched the front.
He grabbed a cold hand!
The time when the eyes of the five people were replaced was when they first entered this area. There is no commercial street at all, and there is hardly any light.
Therefore...... Even if the "thing" that helped them replace their eyes at that time stood in front of them, they couldn't see clearly at all.
Completely insulated from light, that's why.
When the eyes are replaced, everything you see is a false "phenomenon". That's why those weird phenomena appear.
The five people were "separated", which was actually the hallucination of those fake eyes.
Sun Jian was never able to see the ghost who had been appearing in front of him, and the same was true of the ghost wearing a black skull pendant......
The same is true for the feeling that this abandoned complex is too wide......
Lu Ye didn't find the extra feet behind him from the mirror......
The same is true for Liu Xianghui to see "ghosts" as stars......
Wen Xuehui looked back, but she couldn't see anything......
The same is true for the reason for not being able to see living creatures such as flies, because what is in front of you is not a real sight at all.
It's all because of the illusion brought by these "eyes". After the eyes are replaced, no matter which direction the ghost comes from to kill the occupants, they are defenseless.
In fact, although there are many invisible ghosts, the apartment will also give ghosts movement restrictions, and as a way out, there will be no blood signs that are completely invisible and cannot be found. That would be completely incomprehensible.
Min gave this advice to the residents "don't look back" because she believed that maybe if they didn't look back, the future could change, and if the ghost appeared in front of them, then they could naturally run away at any time. Anyway, if you don't look back, the ghost has to be in front of them before you can change the eyeballs. Of course, if the ghost is transparent, then she can't help it. Even if you write "protect your eyes", it's useless, if you protect your eyes, you will be more likely to be killed by the ghost because you can't see clearly in front of you, and the ghost can't help you because you protect your eyes. However, Min's cleverness was still completely frustrated, she didn't expect that the area around Sanada Road was so dark that she couldn't see her five fingers, even if she replaced their eyes in front of Bian Xingchen and others, they couldn't notice it at all.
This can't help but be reminiscent of "Changing Heads" in "Strange Tales".
In fact, if the stars had looked back before, they would have found ...... As soon as I turn my head, I can see clearly with my right eye. The reason why his right eye is still invisible is because in front of him, his right eye is covered by a hand by something.
In addition, it is worth mentioning that their eyes are covered, and there is actually another place where they are deceived.
That's ...... Wristwatch. After the eyes are replaced, the time displayed by the watch is naturally false. Actually, five minutes ago, it was just after midnight.
But in fact, Xingchen and Lu Ye, who are still alive at this moment, both thought that it was just after ten o'clock in the evening.
Human beings' concept and perception of "time" are actually completely dependent on clocks. Unconsciously, clocks and watches have become the only way for humans to know time, and if there are no clocks, human beings will be at a loss and fall into a state where they cannot understand time at all. Many people have experienced that their perception of time, such as minutes and hours that have passed, is often very different from the time of the actual clock. Because people's perception of time is very subjective, assuming that under the premise of being extremely nervous, or when they are leisurely and enjoyable, or when they have nothing to do, their perception of time will be different.
Therefore, even if there is a time difference of two hours, no one has noticed. was completely deceived by the "illusion" on the clock.
This is the real reason why Xingchen and others can't contact the apartment residents with their mobile phones. Because in this way, no one can know the real time.
Nature...... A text message from his brother that Xingchen saw...... It is also an "illusion".
Even if you take out the "prosthetic eye" through that text message and discover the truth, it is useless at all. Because there is no way to tell the real time. There is no way to know the real time now, and even if the blood indicates that time has passed, it is impossible to leave this place at all. Not to mention, the eyes can't be used, and there is no way to get out of this area.
The stars have fallen into a desperate situation. He could barely escape.
I don't know how to live, and I don't know the real time, but the "ghost" who is always in front of him and covers his right eye is finally about to act.
There was no way for the stars to escape.
He...... It's dead.
It's one o'clock in the morning.
All the residents were waiting at the door of the apartment, but still no one came back to the apartment. Everyone couldn't help but sigh, this time ...... I can't go back alone.
"I still don't know who wrote the note." Su Xiaomo, a resident of Room 905, a young girl with glasses and a ponytail, said: "There is no way to know from them whether it is really a way to survive if you don't look back." ”
Li Yin kept praying that at least one person would come back.
Dead......
Absolutely dead......
Thinking like this, Xingchen no longer holds any hope of living.
Although I don't know what happened to Liu Xiang, but ...... I definitely can't live anymore. What to do? What to do? What to do......
Despair overwhelmed Bian Xingchen in an instant.
Immediately, he only felt a cold aura coming from behind. Forthwith...... The breath of death is looming!
And yet at this very moment. A miracle happened.
The breath of death faded away. Not only that, but Xingchen fell to the ground with one foot, and after a long time, nothing happened.
What's going on? Xingchen initially thought that he had gone to the underworld, but it was still an "illusion" in front of him?
However, he quickly touched his body, and it was fine.
Are you still alive?
Xingchen never thought that he would find a way to survive by mistake.
In fact, if each of them could see, they would find that basically every fifty meters or so, a black helmet would appear under their feet. The total number of helmets in this complex is at least a few thousand.
Before, Xingchen had kicked a "hard" thing in that dilapidated house, in the darkness. That's the helmet. He couldn't see the helmet not because it was dark in that house, but because his eyes couldn't see the real thing at all. At that time, he was actually walking outside, not in the house at all.
This helmet is similar to the stand-in dolls on the previous Midnight Bus, once the helmet is on, the ghosts cannot see them, and the original eyes will be changed back.
Just now, when Xingchen fell to the ground, his head happened to be put on a helmet on the ground! At this moment, Xingchen raised his wrist and saw the correct time on his watch!
Bian Xingchen...... Become the only one to survive this time.
At the same time, Lu Ye raised his head and looked at his watch again, and the time displayed was half past ten.
"How...... Why did time pass so slowly, only half past ten? Lu Ye walked and walked, becoming more and more worried. At this moment, he happened to pass by a helmet.
Then......
His footsteps stopped.
Everything is lonely again......
Deathly loneliness......
