Tale 1: The Spirit of the Night Chapter 7 An Unfinished Nightmare

Pushing open this familiar door, you will be greeted by the familiar scene. After all, this is the bedroom where Wei Xiaofeng has lived for more than half a year, and her heart is filled with warmth and nostalgia at this moment, because she has not walked in here for more than half a month.

Half a year ago, she met five girls with different personalities who were going to spend four years of college with her, and the bond between them formed a dormitory called 418.

Everyone will have a small but harmonious dormitory when they go to school, and there will be some good roommates who are close to each other and arm each other, but the bond between them is not as deep as Wei Xiaofeng and her roommates.

For a long time half a month ago, one unbelievable and weird and terrifying incident after another occurred intermittently in dormitory 418. The six girls have spent many nights of fear together, and how many heartbreaking horrors they have tasted, which may not be encountered and experienced by anyone else in their lifetime.

It is in this environment that the unbreakable bond is born. Although the truth of this series of strange events in the end has been revealed—Yu Xiaoyu's sleepwalking syndrome is the culprit of everything, and Xiao Feng has to be hospitalized due to excessive fright after experiencing the final "midnight terror" herself—but this bond has not been broken, but has become stronger and stronger, forging a heart-to-heart bond between them that transcends friendship.

Half a month, not long, not short.

Because of the fact that he was frightened to a great extent for three consecutive days, Xiao Feng suffered from a mild neurasthenia and was sent to the hospital for treatment and observation. During the half month she was hospitalized, the daily visits and encouragement of the other five girls in the dormitory helped her successfully break through the psychological barrier and miraculously return to normal in a short period of time.

In order to avoid similar things from happening again, Yu Xiaoyu also went to consult a psychiatrist and actively cooperated with the treatment, and there was no abnormal thing in the dormitory after that.

The other four people in the dormitory are trying to refute the rumors, eliminate the impact, and let this unpleasant memory slowly fade from people's memories.

When Wei Xiaofeng returned to this familiar campus, familiar dormitory, and familiar dormitory again, everything seemed so calm, as if nothing had happened half a month ago.

Wei Xiaofeng walked into the dormitory and found that all the items on the table that belonged to her were the same as before she went to the hospital, neatly arranged and spotless, and the bed was also clean. She paced in the bedroom, looking around the corners of this second home that had been separated for more than half a month, breathing in the air that was still familiar.

From outside the door, five figures flowed in: Zhang Yueyue, Zhuang Han, Chen Xueqi, Yu Xiaoyu, and Wang Miaomiao. These five girls have appeared by her side almost every day since Xiaofeng was hospitalized, including today, when she was discharged from the hospital, and the five of them accompanied her collectively through every step from the hospital to the dormitory.

"In order to celebrate the perfect return of Xiao Feng, shouldn't we go somewhere to have a good meal, happy and happy?" The most lively Chen Xueqi excitedly proposed.

Zhang Yueyue hurriedly interrupted her: "I'll talk about this later, let's help Xiaofeng sort out all the luggage first." ”

With that, a couple of girls dragged in two suitcases from outside the door.

Just do it, these girls can be said to be ingenious, and after a while, the two full suitcases were emptied, and at the same time, Wei Xiaofeng's desk and various extra items in the cabinet were placed in an orderly manner. Needless to say, the clothes are not to mention, and some necessities of life are also placed in the corresponding positions, and the various gifts that Xiaofeng bought for her by the five girls during her hospitalization are also placed in the most suitable position. All kinds of hanging accessories are indispensable, so Xiao Feng's bedside suddenly became much more lively, but the dazzling white mixed in it still absorbed all of Xiao Feng's attention.

Stand-in doll......

The last scene of that terrifying midnight bizarre incident half a month ago......

was originally a stand-in doll bought to ward off evil spirits, but it became the "murder weapon" of that terrifying picture......

In the pale moonlight, the white figure with long hair fluttering, the severed doll's head that fell to the ground suddenly, and the lifeless dead eyes in the frightening glance......

The miserable screams tore through the night sky, the eyes gradually hollowed out under the mental breakdown, the body fell to the ground weakly due to the weakness of the feet, and the soul seemed to gradually withdraw from the body that was constantly trembling with fear......

These are Wei Xiaofeng's last consciousnesses, last memories of that night......

The days that followed were like walking corpses, and her senses seemed to be completely closed, except for a heart-rending feeling that continued to gnaw at her last perception—fear......

Until the encouragement and smiles of the five girls, like the sunshine piercing the dark clouds, pierced through the thick haze that wrapped her heart, aroused the hope in her heart that she was still struggling under the destruction of fear. Even the smallest hope, as long as it can be firmly grasped, can grow into a force strong enough to repel the fear that falls like the sky falling!

As a result, the terrifying picture of that night in her memory no longer frightened her, because the culprit who created everything was a close friend who helped her get out of the haze and treated her like a sister! There was no estrangement, no hatred, only an unbreakable bond that was enough to drive away the painful memories of that night.

Wei Xiaofeng smiled slightly, picked out the stand-in doll from a cluster of colorful ornaments, and placed it in the most conspicuous position. Because this doll was bought by this girl, it is her expression of heart to help the other girls in the dormitory to get out of their fears.

Wei Xiaofeng looked at Yu Xiaoyu, who was seriously helping her to arrange her salute, and said firmly in her heart: It's not her fault, she is my good sister forever.

***

Maybe I heard that Wei Xiaofeng, who had been hospitalized for half a month, came back from the hospital, and the seven boys in the same class jointly invited the six girls in the 418 dormitory to come out for dinner, which was a bit unexpected by the girls. However, considering that the head of the dormitory, Zhang Yueyue, has an ambiguous relationship with one of the boys, the girls also know it. In a pleasant atmosphere, the dinner was over, and the six girls walked around the campus together for a while before returning to the dormitory.

"Only when all six people are there, it's a complete 418 bedroom! It's been a long time since I've had this wonderful feeling! Zhang Yueyue said with emotion.

"yes." Wang Miaomiao echoed, "In the past few months, the successive haunted things have made us uneasy, and then Xiaofeng's hospitalization. Now that Xiao Feng is back, the reason for the matter has been figured out, and the mood has not been so relaxed for a long time! ”

"I'm really sorry, it's all me who is the culprit, do you want me to invite Xiaofeng to a meal alone as an atonement?" Yu Xiaoyu had obviously put that matter down and made jokes.

Wei Xiaofeng said politely: "No need, it's not your fault in the first place, it's because I'm too timid." By the way, I almost forgot to ask, Xiaoyu, how is your sleepwalking syndrome now? ”

Yu Xiaoyu said happily: "I have consulted a psychiatrist several times, and now it is almost fine." ”

"What the hell is sleepwalking?" Wei Xiaofeng asked.

Zhuang Han put on an old pedantic appearance and explained: "Sleepwalking is a phenomenon in which people get out of bed on their own while sleeping, and then return to bed to continue sleeping, which is a sleep disorder in neuroscience. Sleepwalking is caused by certain nerve cells in the cerebral cortex that control movement being too excited. ”

Yu Xiaoyu took over and said: "I haven't sleepwalked before, so I asked the doctor, and he said that although sleepwalking is more common in children, there are also people who suddenly sleepwalk when they become adults." He prescribed me some medication and after a few psychotherapy sessions my sleepwalking was cured. ”

"But I'm curious that even if it's sleepwalking, your behavior is incredible!" Wei Xiaofeng said, "Why is it so consistent with the suicide incident three years ago? And at that time, I saw Xiaoyu, your face, your eyes, not at all like a sleeping person, it was really terrifying, and the female ghost in the movie really had a fight! ”

"Actually, we've thought about it too. When people are sleeping, the cerebral cortex may move the things or scenes that are very memorable during the day into dreams, but the first few things Xiaoyu sleepwalked did were before learning the specific circumstances of the suicide three years ago, and the last thing seems to have nothing to do with the suicide of the year...... "Zhuang Han analyzed.

"So we wonder ......" Chen Xueqi smiled strangely with bad intentions, "Xiaoyu was possessed by a ghost at that time......

“STOP!” Zhang Yueyue interrupted her, "It's all said, this matter is not allowed to be mentioned again in the future, why did you forget?" Besides, don't be a ghost all the time, if you want to find excitement to watch horror movies, don't scare Xiao Feng anymore. ”

Chen Xueqi muttered a little unconvinced: "How can movies have the excitement of reality?" ”

Wei Xiaofeng also smiled: "Yueyue, you don't have to worry about me, after so many things, my courage has long been not so small." The real ones have been experienced, are you afraid of the fakes? Why don't we watch a horror movie together? I went to ask Senior Sister Lanzhu to borrow a computer, and by the way, I said hello to her. ”

"Okay, okay!" The atmosphere in the dormitory was even hotter.

***

I turned off the lights and lay on the bed I hadn't slept on for a long time, although it was not as soft and comfortable as the hospital bed, but there was a sense of peace of mind that permeated my heart. The small wooden bed carries the bits and pieces of Wei Xiaofeng after he came to the university, including happiness, warmth, cordiality, as well as the fear experienced in those unusual nights and the strong friendship of the roommates he felt later.

Smelling the not-so-good but familiar smell coming out of the quilt, Xiao Feng's heart that had been adrift for more than half a month gradually let go. The sound of the wind breaking in through the cracks in the floor-to-ceiling windows from the balcony and the breathing of the roommates slowly fell asleep with this increasingly strong girl.

***

There is light......

A light that pierces the darkness......

Gradually, the darkness was dispelled by white light......

Where is this? Wei Xiaofeng asked silently in his heart: Am I not in bed?

She tried to move her body, but she couldn't, she could barely feel it......

She couldn't feel her breathing, she couldn't feel the temperature around her, she couldn't hear a sound......

Only......

All she could see, there was a white expanse all around......

Luckily, she could still see and think, but ......

The mouth could not speak, the body could not move, as if the UFO could only look at the white scene around him, helpless, fearful, desperate...... Keep coming to mind.

It's a dream! It must have been a dream!! She kept comforting herself in her heart.

However, she found herself unable to break free and wake up from this nightmare......

It was as if that was reality and that everything she had experienced before was a dream......

The wounds she had just healed had begun to crack again......

Fortunately, the light gradually faded, and some blurred outlines slowly appeared around them......

Gradually, the outline became clear, and the surrounding objects slowly emerged......

Thank God! Wei Xiaofeng breathed a sigh of relief......

But she seemed to be relieved a little earlier, and an incredible sight appeared before her eyes......

The first thing she saw was a snow-white patch, with two fluorescent lamps and a hanging fan in the middle......

It is a room with a ceiling...... But......

But it's so close......

Wei Xiaofeng meditated in his heart: If my hand can move, the entire palm will definitely be able to touch it.

She glanced to both sides: the bed, the same shelf bed as in the bedroom, but the quilt and sheets were green and white striped. As far back as she can remember, quilts and sheets of this color were used in dorms for students from the junior year onwards.

How could I be in someone else's dorm? Wei Xiaofeng didn't have time to think about it, but he realized something even stranger......

Beds on either side? So where am I lying? Facing the row of fluorescent lamps and hanging fans in the middle of the ceiling, will there be a bed in this position? Isn't this in our school? Where would that be?

Calm down, calm down! Wei Xiaofeng kept reminding herself in her heart that she wanted to calm her breathing, but suddenly realized that she was actually not breathing at all, and she couldn't feel her heartbeat......

Such a situation beyond common sense made Xiao Feng's brain blank, as white as the ceiling in front of him......

No, there was a small broken mark on this piece of ceiling, as ugly as a small flaw that suddenly appeared on a piece of jade......

However, this crack seemed to shatter the overall snow-white beauty of the ceiling, and it also shattered the blank space in Xiao Feng's mind......

She thought of something incredible......

It seems that there is such a crack in the ceiling of the 418 bedroom where she has lived for half a year, in the same place. Could this be the ......

This must be a coincidence! She immediately vetoed in her heart. For she was sure and sure that there was nothing high in the middle of the dormitory that would allow one to lie flat.

In order to dispel this grotesque idea once and for all, she began to recall in her mind some of the peculiar features of the dormitory: three nailed holes in the wall inside Bed 1, a large hazel mark in the upper corner of the wall near Bed 5, and a sinuous crack in the wall above the door......

She looked at the three areas in turn......

Exactly fit!

One is a coincidence, two are accidental, three are just in case, but four are ......

Wei Xiaofeng had to admit that everything was incredible: she was now in bedroom 418, where she had lived for more than half a year, and she was still floating in mid-air......

She's starting to lose her sense of normality......

Because everything is so incredible!

She floated in mid-air......

It was in mid-air in Bedroom 418, and it was clearly not the Bedroom 418 she was living in......

She couldn't explain what was in front of her, she could only put it down to a dream......

However, it is obviously a dream, why is it so real and shocking?

Fortunately, it wasn't too bad, she found that she could finally move, although her hands and feet were unconscious, but her body could slowly flip. So she slowly turned her body around, facing her face to the floor.

However, an even more bizarre scene pierced her eyeballs......

Books, clothes, accessories, watches, vanity boxes, and ...... scattered all over the place

Doll with a detached head......

The bright red on the sliding door mirror is like the word "resentment" branded with blood......

Also, a long black hair and a white dress with a cold body hung in the air, gently swaying in the wind, elegant and poignant......
