Chapter 4: Purgatory

Sanguine.

A blinding blood redβ€”

Countless severed limbs and stumps, flesh and blood were blurred, red balls of flesh that were still breathing rolled on the reddish-brown carpet of blood vessels and flesh, and red sucker tentacles that were still wriggling and twisting extended from the ceiling and four walls, entangled and secreted viscous and disgusting mucus, and slowly wriggled as if they had life.

A gust of wind blew, and a fishy stench that seemed to rot deep under the sea began to spread in the air.

Where is the student dormitory, it is clearly purgatory on earth!

And just as the security guard opened the door, several tentacles inside quickly stretched towards him, and even the lines on them and the thick blood dripping from them were clearly visible under the flashlight light.

It's like a hungry and greedy python trying to strangle and feast on its prey.

"Save ...... Help me! ”

The security guard's face turned pale, and he ran towards the staircase in the distance with his hands and feet, so embarrassed that the flashlight and baton fell to the ground, and he couldn't take care of it.

He just ran away, but he didn't notice that the tentacles behind him only chased a few meters before they stopped, and even slowly retracted.

……

Su Bai didn't mean to save people, after all, the thing in front of him looked very difficult to mess with.

It's just that these tentacles were the first to notice his existence, and they were obviously afraid, and even gave up the prey in their hands, willing to retract and keep a safe distance from him

Su Bai thought for a moment, flew down from the shadows, and tried to take a step in the direction of those tentacles.

Sure enough, the tentacles shrank back a bit.

"Are you really afraid of me?!"

He was a little unbelievable, and a little thoughtful.

"If I want to say it now, the only thing that is special is the identity of this unofficial Yin official, that is...... Are they afraid of ghosts? ”

It seems that only this reason can be explained.

He took two more steps forward, and the tentacles retracted a little again, and he was almost back inside the dormitory door.

His instincts told him that they must not be allowed to go back.

He took a deep breath, then stared at him, lowered his legs slightly and sprinted in a sprint, and then ......

"Brush!"

With the lightness of his soul state, he flew over like a wind, and in an instant, he came to the unresponsive tentacles, and grabbed one of the tentacles with force!

He had tried before, and he couldn't reach most of the physical objects in his soul state, but sure enough, these tentacles were not normal, and he could hold them firmly at the moment.

The tactile sensation is a bit peculiar, some like octopus tentacles just fished out of the deep sea, soft and somewhat elastic, covered with cold, biting and sticky and slippery mucus, which may slip out of your hands if you are not careful.

He gritted his teeth and roared, "What are you doing in your heart?" Give me back! ”

He used both hands at the same time, clutching the tentacle tightly, trying to pull it out upside down while it was struggling violently!

And at this moment, he suddenly noticed something strange in his palm.

He looked down in surprise, and saw bursts of green smoke rising from the place where the tentacle was grasped in the palm of his hand, and he didn't feel anything, but the tentacle seemed to be burned by the fire, and the skin and flesh opened in an instant, becoming charred and rotten.

The incinerated tentacles struggled frantically and painfully, their massive tentacles slapping against the iron doors and walls, making screeching noises and shaking.

It was as if the whole building was on the verge of collapsing!

It stands to reason that the other students have already woken up to such a big movement, but the strange thing is that the dormitory is still dead and silent at this moment, as if everyone else has disappeared.

Su Bai stared closely at the tentacle he was holding in his hand, the originally full and round tentacle had been burned and shriveled and blackened a lot, as if it was gradually becoming old and weak, and even the strength of the struggle had become much smaller.

The result was a shriveled lump of bark-like roughness, and with a pinch of reddish-brown powder fell to the floor, like a layer of rust, with a strange rancid smell.

Su Bai was about to reach out to grab the other tentacles, but he was stunned to see that those tentacles had already retracted, as if they were geckos with broken tails.

"Boom!"

The door of 405 was forcefully closed from the inside in an instant, and the door was locked with a "click".

It's like the status is reversed, and Su Bai outside is the monster chasing them, making them hide inside and tremble.

"Am I that scary?"

Su Bai was a little unbelieving, and relied on his soul body to penetrate the iron door and try to enter the dormitory to find it, but the strange thing was that he only crossed this thin door, and the world inside had changed greatly.

The blood-red purgatory, full of flesh and tentacles, had disappeared at some point, leaving only an ordinary empty student dormitory.

The curtains fluttered slightly as the breeze blew outside, and the cold white moonlight poured down the cracks and shone on the shiny tiles of the floor, clearly visible leaving nothing but a few footprints of black mud.

He seems to have returned to his normal world.

"Hello? Are you still there? Come out and talk! ”

Su Bai walked around the dormitory, and continued to whisper without giving up, trying to trick it out.

"I promise I won't do anything this time, let's sit down and talk again?!"

It's like a strange uncle who seduces a little girl.

It's just a pity that no matter how he shouted, the scene just now didn't appear again.

"Forget it......"

"It's more important to be a yin official now......"

He pondered for a moment, then slowly raised his hand to reveal the palm with red dots.

With a flash of red light, the white mist of the afternoon rolled out of the void again, and in an instant, it enveloped the entire room, making it impossible to distinguish between east and west, north and south.

"Sure enough......"

He tried to move his hands and feet very freely, and this time he was not restrained by any mysterious power, so he walked straight towards the depths of the fog.

After taking a few steps forward, the place where the dormitory door should have been empty was now empty, and he had already come to another dimension.

After a short walk, the floor was no longer the original tiled floor, but a black, dry sand, which would leave a faint footprint when stepped on, but would soon be wiped away by the gently caressed wind.

At this time, Su Bai noticed that the fog around him had faded a lot, so faint that he could vaguely distinguish the things in front of him.

Beneath your feet are the charred black ashes left behind by the burnt plants, and the faint smell of gray-brown fireworks fills the air.

Some of them are like the incense burners of Taoist temples, filled with smoke behind incense and candles, and some are like the pungent smell of burning paper money and scriptures when going to the grave in the cemetery of childhood, with a slightly uncomfortable burning sensation.

It seems that the crying of women and children can be faintly heard in the distance, which is as thin as mosquitoes and flies, intermittently, making people's hearts hairy.

The smell of fireworks from nowhere condensed, gradually forming a strange and unique narrow and long black path that spread into the depths of darkness.

The incense sticks lingered in front of him, as if they were leading the way for him.

As he walked forward, the fog that had faded around him revealed a blackened, barren wasteland.

He subconsciously looked to the left and right, but he was horrified to see a black figure with an indistinct face standing or staggering on the charred ground like a walking corpse.

The figures are densely packed, and there are countless at a glance!
