Chapter 6 The House in the Town
No matter!
Xiao Xia's stubbornness came up, and she let go and strode regardless of it, and the sound of drum-like footsteps was also amplified and urgent, which invisibly urged her to be even more flustered. She only hoped that something would appear in front of her, or that she could find a companion, but she had been walking for so long that she still and still saw nothing, so that she couldn't even tell if she was standing still or how far she had gone!
Before she knew it, she was running, but after only a few moments she realized that it might be a trap in itself, so that a panicked person would exhaust all his physical strength in the non-stop running, and then it would be easier for the other person to attack.
Thinking of this, she slowed down again, forcibly suppressed her psychological tension, and walked like a walk. And this time, she didn't have long to walk before she saw a building appear in front of her.
It was a five-story building, just around the corner, and it looked like it would be used as a supermarket, but because there was no one yet, it was dark inside, and it felt like a cave to Natsu.
She hesitated, and decided to come closer, along one side of the wall, so that she would have a direction, but it was possible to turn back here like the people who had searched for the east gate, but at least she had a coordinate.
The delicate fingers touched the rough wall, and there was a strange sensation, like a little tingling, which made her stop, but her hand was still on the wall, but for a few seconds, the touch of her hand made her jump away like an electric shock.
The walls are hot! It's the same feeling she felt when she touched the porcelain lamp stand at the hotel!
Did her fall into this impossible maze have anything to do with the strange events of that night? Why did you find her?! Does this have anything to do with what Wang Wenge wanted to say and stopped? It's a pity that the sudden incident caused Wang Wenge to be separated before he could tell a clue!
She suppressed her heartbeat, and slowly approached the wall again, hesitantly putting her hand up again, forcing herself not to take it away, and feeling it carefully.
The walls are indeed hot, and not warm after being exposed to the sun, but the kind that will feel hot after a while, and the temperature is at least 50 degrees. And it's not just the heat, when you listen closely, you can hear a low cry coming from the wall - it's hot! It's so hot, let us out!
This is the same thing that happened to her at the inn that day, proving that it was not the innkeeper or some thief who had entered her room that day, but that something had found her! But what can she do? And why didn't Ah Bai feel the ghost?
As soon as he thought of Ah Bai, the anxiety in Xiao Xia's heart increased by another point. Since she set off in the morning, Ah Bai has not appeared, did she lose Ah Bai halfway, or when she was unconscious, what happened to Ah Bai?!
She walked from house to house, touching the walls of each new house, and everywhere she got the same burning sensation and cry from deep within the walls!
What's going on, even if there is a grievance, it can't be that large, it will have to kill many, many people, and bury the whole town! And this kind of mass death can only be caused by war, is this before liberation?
No, if it was caused by the war many years ago, why was Wang Wenge full of guilt and retribution, as if he also participated in doing evil! He looks like he is in his forties and less than fifty, if there is really anything hidden, it must have happened ten or twenty years ago!
Wang Wenge must be found!
Xiao Xia thought about walking, and after passing another house, the road ahead suddenly broke off. She knew it might be at the corner of the street, so the walls weren't coherent anymore. This leaves her with three options: one is to keep walking straight to see if she will return to the square or find any of the gates, and of course she may lose her way; The second is to walk along the wall, so that she will go around in a circle, and then return to the door of the supermarket, because Mao Fu said that the mayor of the town loves order very much, everything is horizontal and vertical, square, and the whole town is like a Go board; The third is to go back, which of course will return to the same place, but it saves a lot of effort.
In the end, she decided to move on, to see if the other houses would be the same as the ones on this street, and to see if the space was distorted as she thought, and that no matter how she went, it would return to a place where the 'city' wanted you to return to.
Taking a deep breath, she pushed forward as straight as she could, and after about a dozen meters away, she saw the outer wall of a house again. Xiao Xia was overjoyed, and hurriedly walked over in three steps and two steps, reaching out to touch it, but it made her heart fall to the bottom.
The same! Exactly! The scorching heat and the screaming are there! And she had a strong feeling that the whole town would be like this!
Impossible! It is impossible for the whole town to bury people who have died unjustly! So why is that? The hallucination given by the man hiding behind the fog?! What is he going to do? Avenge? Redress an injustice? Or just want to kill!
As she was thinking, another gust of wind swept past her ears, extremely cold and very light, like a sigh from hell, which made her shiver all over, and she couldn't help but caress the right arm that had been injured and had been neglected by repeated psychological fear.
At this moment, because of this wind, her arm not only hurt, but also her brain has cleared up from the chaotic state of mind just now. I saw that the wind also blew away the dense fog around her, and a few vague black shadows appeared in the thin mist!
The dark shadow couldn't see her features and limbs clearly, but it was floating around her, and was reaching out to grab her!
In a flash of light, she thought of the black handprints on Reporter Tan's body, and remembered that Zuo De said that more than one 'person' had caught her, and immediately screamed, retreated sharply, and narrowly avoided the attack of those ghost hands!
She retreated too quickly and too quickly, her back hit the wall, and before she could stand upright, she felt the burning heat on her back spread rapidly, and a huge suction force followed that stuck her firmly to the wall.
She struggled instinctively, but couldn't move, only the tearing sensation coming from her shoulder let her know she wasn't hallucinating. She felt like a worm trapped in a spider's web, and she saw those dark shadows slowly coming over and killing her! Eat her!
"Nan no Jizo King Bodhisattva! Save me! She shouted in desperation.
Before the words fell, the black hand had already touched her body, and the jade talisman on her neck quickly emitted a circle of warm yellow light, not only did the black hand stretched out to her neck and chest disappear in an instant, but the halo that expanded to her whole body also 'eliminated' the black hand that grabbed her legs and feet and the huge adsorption force behind her!
As soon as Natsu was free, she ran away desperately, and in the face of this threat that was beyond her capacity, her reason was gone, and she only wanted to escape. She understood that the reason why the jade pendant of the Jizo King Bodhisattva had greatly increased its divine power was that Ruan Zhan blessed his mental power on it every time he removed the accumulated filth for it, but this could not be used again and again, because in this kind of evil place, it would be polluted, and the next time the power would be reduced a little until it disappeared completely.
And this jade piece is not only a talisman for her, but also the most important souvenir, so she doesn't want to use it easily unless it is a matter of life and death!
Ruan Zhan! Ruan Zhan!
She ran around and called out to him in her heart. She knew that he would not come to save her, because even if they had strong telepathy, they were so far away at the moment, and even if he could feel her, how could he come to this place he had never been to in an instant. But she still misses his name, which makes her feel extremely safe, even in the face of death, she will be calmer.
She didn't know how long she had been running, but when she felt that she was about to get tired and dying, she suddenly broke into a place where there was no fog at all.
Square! She's back here, just like everyone else!
As soon as she stepped into the edge of the square, she felt a 'hiss' under her feet, and the heat rushed to her face, and then there was a smell of burnt paste coming from her feet, and when she looked down, a puff of smoke was coming out of her feet!
The ground was so hot that it melted off part of the soles of her sneakers, and it was no longer a square, but a huge stove!
Xiao Xia jumped back in shock, but he didn't enter the fog again, it turned out that at some point, the white mist actually retreated a meter wide, so that people could stand on the normal land and watch the situation in the square.
Whew-
The sound of water sounded again by the lake.
Xiao Xia looked up and saw that Reporter Tan's body had long since disappeared, and two fountains shot into the middle of the lake, on the left and right sides of the red fountain!
What does this mean?
Xiao Xia was stunned, but before she could think about it, this same white mist was pushed away again and again, and all those who were scared away by the 'dead fish' returned here!
Like Xiao Xia, they seemed to be being chased by something, panicked when they broke in, everyone was burned out of their shoes, and the middle-aged man surnamed Song, who was engaged in propaganda work, even lost his shoes and stepped in directly, burning his feet!
Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what to say, only fear and uneasiness passed in their eyes. Xiao Xia saw Wang Wenge standing not far away at a glance, and just as he wanted to call him, he saw Wang Wenge stumbling into the square as if he was being pushed by an invisible hand.
In the exclamations of everyone, another person fell in like Wang Wenge, it was the horse face surnamed Zhang!
As soon as they fell into the square, they were scalded to their feet, and ran towards the edge of the square, but after only a few steps, they suddenly could not go any further, and although they seemed to be struggling in this direction, they could only move in place as if they were being held by an invisible rope, and were so scalded that they jumped around.
"It's hot! It's hot! Let us out! ”
As soon as the roar came out, Xiao Xia's hands and feet were cold in shock! It's the same shouts coming from the walls, the same words, the same tone, but not from the depths of hell, but on the spot!
It turns out that the Dead Fish incident is not to scare these people away, but to make them temporarily withdraw from the scene, so that the real owners of this horror game can prepare for the next scene!
With a 'Teng' sound, two flames burst out from the marble floor that should have been cool, enveloping the two people who kept screaming miserably. Xiao Xia turned around in horror and squatted on the ground while covering her ears!
She wanted to save people, but she couldn't do anything, she couldn't bear to watch living people being killed, whatever the reason, it was too cruel!
