Chapter Forty-Nine: Danger Here
In the morning, I was woken up by Li Yang's phone ringing, he asked me to go over immediately, and I talked to him on the phone for a few words, I rubbed my sleepy eyes and pulled my shoes to the bathroom and washed up briefly.
When I was packing up and preparing to go out, I saw Wang Chen and his girlfriend standing at the door with a pair of dog men and women with hippie smiling faces, looking at me like cute. Okay, as the old saying goes, good words don't convince damned ghosts. If you want to go into troubled waters, if something happens then, don't blame me.
The three of us went out and took a taxi straight to the garden community. The agreed location with Li Yang was in a small remote garden in the community. The wind was cold, the dead trees were shaking, and I saw a few people standing in the pavilion in the middle of the garden. Looking at it in the past, in addition to Li Yang, there was also an old acquaintance Copper Lock, and there was indeed a beautiful woman standing next to Copper Lock.
This girl is in her twenties, with a ponytail, and although her facial features are not as delicate as Wang Xue's, she also has a different flavor, and she looks quite attractive. When the beautiful woman saw me, she stretched out her hand generously: "You are Liu Yang." ”
Holding her hand, I felt a little strange in my heart. The girl's hands were cold, lean, and meatless, and they didn't feel at all. Such girls are generally very capable, but the relationship is bumpy, as the saying goes, no one hurts a girl with cold hands.
The beauty introduced herself: "My name is Qin Dan, and I am also from the Lantern League, I have heard many stories about you, and I admire Lao Liu very much." ”
I hurriedly waved my hand: "You're polite." ”
Copper Lock interjected beside him: "Qin Dan admires you for going through so many strange things, and you haven't died yet. ”
"Go!" I scolded, this kid can say anything, but he can't speak human words.
Qin Dan said: "I heard that you are going to explore this strange mansion, I have heard about it here, so I took the initiative to ask for it today." How about Lao Liu, I won't be unwelcome. ”
"Look at what you said, the more beautiful women you have, the better, how can you not welcome it. Oh yes, I'll introduce you. I pointed at Wang Chen and said, "This is my roommate and good friend, Wang Chen." That's what he's for......"
"My name is Ding Ling, please take care of me." Wang Chen's little girlfriend introduced herself strangely cute.
Wang Chen arched his hand: "Everyone, I have more or less heard some things about you, and I admire it very much, little brother, and I yearn for it." If you are cheeky and want to join this operation, please take care of it. ”
Everyone exchanged a few words, and Li Yang said: "Let's hurry up, we must find out what is going on today, and don't come up with any moths." ”
Copper Lock was itching: "Damn, yesterday I heard Lao Li say that you met a large group of lonely souls and wild ghosts, as well as little monster children practicing or something, but I was greedy." Today's task is to not stop without seeing ghosts, I have said hello to the fan base, and I am ready to have a hellish live broadcast. Don't let me down. ”
Qin Dan said: "Do what you can, everyone do what you can." ”
This beauty is not pretentious at all, and she has a faint temperament of a superior, and at first glance she is a girl with a story and a background.
In order to prevent suspicion of the property of the building, we entered the building in batches and gathered at the elevator entrance. Wang Chen's girlfriend Ding Ling, stationed in the teahouse outside the community, is regarded as an external liaison department, keeping in touch with us at any time, and going to the police in case of danger.
The five of us entered the building one after another and came to the elevator entrance. When I entered the elevator and pressed the button on the 21st floor, the elevator creaked and creaked up.
None of the five people spoke, the atmosphere was a little solemn, the copper lock took out the mobile phone and didn't know what to play, my eyes stared straight at the elevator door, and as the floor rose, my mood became more and more anxious. This emotion came inexplicably, and the muscles of the whole body tightened.
Things have come to this point where it is impossible to exit.
"Ding Dong" sounded, the 21st floor arrived, and we rushed out. Wang Chen poked his head out and looked left and right, looking excited and nervous. I laughed secretly, if I really encounter something unclean for a while, scare your out, and see if you can do it.
Qin Dan said: "Lao Li, Lao Liu, you two are team leaders." It's up to you how you go. ”
Copper lock was impatient: "Look at their cowardice, their lips are purple." If you want me to say, let's go straight to the 22nd floor and explore that Taoist temple. I asked the master of Wutai Mountain for a talisman to kill all cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods. ”
Before he could finish speaking, suddenly a lightning bolt flashed outside the window, followed by an earth-shattering thunderclap. The sound came without warning, and it struck suddenly, and no one was prepared, and my scalp was numb, and I only felt a cool breath running down the tail bone to the top of my head.
Through the window, the sky is getting darker and darker, the earth is dark, the sky seems to be covered with sandstorms, dim and foggy, and the wind is full of buildings.
I glanced at the copper lock: "Let you talk nonsense." ”
The boy of the copper lock was poor, and when he met the real one, his face was pale, and he was obviously frightened, touching the pendant around his neck, and he didn't know what to say.
Li Yang stood in front of the window and stared outwardly: "I feel it." ”
"What does it feel?" I asked.
Li Yang looked back at us in the cold wind: "Forgot the story of Akira Kurosawa?" ”
Let's look at him together.
Li Yang said: "When Kurosawa was a child, he asked his brother to go to the social drama together, and his brother said I won't go, you can go." Akira Kurosawa said yes. He turned around and was about to leave, when his brother suddenly stopped him, looked at him, and said you go. The next day, Kurosawa received news of his brother's death, and after the two broke up last night, his brother committed suicide. ”
This story was originally plain, but now in this cloudy and ghostly situation, how uncomfortable it is to listen to, and my heart is panicked.
Copper lock scolded: "What kind of demon are you making trouble, your story has something to do with us." ”
Li Yang said: "I am warming you up and always be vigilant. What we are now dealing with is something that transcends all common sense. ”
I saw that Wang Chen was a little uncomfortable, and I knew that he was scared, and said in a low voice: "Why don't you go down first, this kind of place is really not suitable for you." ”
Wang Chen smiled reluctantly: "This is a bird, let's go." ”
As he spoke, thunderstorms broke out frequently, heavy rain poured down, and there was chaos outside the window, and the sky was dark. The light was bad all of a sudden, and it was not good to get light in the corridor, like late at night.
We walked to the emergency channel, and Li Yang said as he walked, "It's too late to go back now......"
Copper lock scolded: "Hurry up and go, you have to go, there is so much nonsense." ”
I said to Qin Dan beside me: "Beauty, or you ......"
Qin Dan smiled: "Lao Liu, don't look down on people, I am also experienced in a hundred battles." ”
"Not bad at all." Li Yang said: "The story on Qin Dan has an old nose. Do you know Lu Dao, she has been to the Ghost Gate, and her name is registered in the life and death book of Lord Yama, and the master said that if it is two days late, the gods will be difficult to save. ”
"Oh?" I came to interest: "What's going on?" ”
At this time, we arrived at the door of the freight elevator. Copper Lock scolded: "Fuck, who did this?" ”
I saw that the two metal doors of the freight elevator were closed, not only that, but the front of the door was also heavily locked with a heavy stainless steel chain, and a huge lock fell on it. A few large letters were written on the gate with a black pen: This door is broken and unusable.
The brass lock went up and tugged hard, and the chain was very heavy, like a mayfly shaking a tree. He tapped the door twice, and closed it so tightly that he couldn't open the gap.
We looked at each other, there was a lot of mystery here. How could it be so coincidental that the elevator broke?
Qin Dan said: "Aren't you able to unlock the copper lock, see if you can open it." ”
Copper Lock crooked his mouth: "It's useless." As soon as I touched it, I knew that the road was broken, and the lock should have been filled with lead, and it couldn't be opened at all. Unless the chain is snapped off with a special vice. But I think that if they work so hard, it is inevitable that the circuit system inside will also be damaged, that is, they are determined not to let people use this elevator. ”
"What then?" Qin Dan asked with a wink of cute eyes.
Li Yang looked at me, touched his bald head again, and said, "Let's go, go to the rooftop!" ”
I don't know why he chose the rooftop. We have explored there many times, and there is no way to connect with the hidden space of the building, and the gate of the roof is also locked, and it is impossible to enter and enter, so what is the point?
Li Yang has a quality that makes you suspicious, but as soon as he points out the direction, he can't help but follow, which is a bit of a leader.
We walked through the hallway, into the black doorway, and came to the staircase that led to the rooftop. The floor lights here have broken down at some point, and they are pitch black. A few of us turned on flashlights, and several pillars of light crossed and landed in the staircase.
Friends who have read my previous experience know that this staircase is divided into two sections, each of which is about three or four meters high, and in the middle of the two sections, there is a small platform at the corner.
When the flashlight spot fell on the corner, we could clearly see that the ground was white, sprinkled with rice.
Li Yang and I looked at each other, but neither of us spoke.
Copper Lock saw that the two of us were stiff and asked what was wrong.
Li Yang said: "Remember what I told you about last night." We found rice on the ground in the hallway. Later, when I met the little monster child, he said a sentence called painting rice for the boundary. The rice on the ground must be a sign of some kind of Taoist enchantment. ”
Qin Dan said: "The rice here also has this effect? ”
"What do you see?" Li Yang asked rhetorically: "The rooftop is uninhabited in the first place, and no one will go to it without trouble." Even if someone goes, they won't sprinkle the rice everywhere with them, and they will sprinkle it so evenly. I think this is a boundary that serves two purposes, one is to seal some kind of enchantment......"
"Two?" Copper Lock asked.
"The second is to warn outsiders that it is dangerous here!" Li Yang said slowly.
Several pillars of light from the flashlight illuminated the past, and the staircase on the roof became more and more mysterious, and the staircase of Hesse seemed to be surging with a different feeling from before. Li Yang looked at us, and he was the first to go up the stairs. Everyone walked up after him, and I sighed and had to follow.
When we came to the corner platform where the two stairs meet, we clearly saw that the ground was densely covered with a thick layer of white rice, which creaked when we stepped on it. After walking through, leave obvious footprints, as if walking in the snow. We are all afraid of leaving our mark on the ground, so we can't help tiptoeing and focusing all our attention on our feet.
Just as he was about to turn this corner and go upstairs, suddenly Wang Chen shouted: "Ah! ”
His face was facing the wall opposite the staircase leading to the upper floor, and the flashlight of the flashlight fell on the wall. I had already stepped on the stairs with one foot, so he was frightened back, and hurriedly walked over and asked, "Wang Chen, what did you see?" ”
He looked like a frightened rabbit, shivering, with no blood on his face, and he froze in a daze, unresponsive to my questioning.
The brass lock looked at him, and shone a flashlight on the wall. The walls were painted with green paint, and the skin had peeled off over the years, and the green had become a very dark black.
The walls are empty, what can there be?
Copper lock smiled: "This guy is scared silly." ”
I glared at him, Wang Chen was brought by me. I helped Wang Chen to sit on the steps, took out a cigarette and stuffed it into his mouth. It took a long time for the expression on his face to become vivid, and when he became angry, he wiped his face heavily and kept shouting "fuck me".
He stabilized his emotions, and then slowly explained the reason. Just now, we went upstairs, and Wang Chen fell behind. He shone around and saw the green wall opposite, and in the mottled light and shadow, he saw a man.
