Chapter 31: Talismans
"Zixuan, you have dirty things on your head."
Lin Ge held Qiqi with one hand, stretched out the hand that had been scratched with a butcher's knife towards the top of Deng Zixuan's head, dusted it with a gesture, and then flicked his thumb against his middle finger, sacrificing blood marks, and a drop of blood bulleted on the forehead of the little ghost who was riding on Deng Zixuan's neck and holding his head.
The little ghost showed a hideous expression, fell back, turned into a cloud of gray smoke and flew to the ground, condensed into the appearance of a little ghost again, and showed a fierce grin towards Lin Ge.
The little ghost on his neck was driven away by Lin Ge, Deng Zixuan suddenly felt that his neck was not so sore, twisted his neck, touched his head and said, "Maybe when you ran out of the tube building, you got it on your head...... The building was too old and full of cobwebs. ”
Lin Ge wondered how to solve these three little ghosts, and he was a little strange why the three little ghosts were pestering Deng Zixuan.
Lin Ge has a charm on his body, and it is normal for the little ghost not to dare to approach, but Qiqi has no objects to ward off evil spirits, and she is also wearing a red dress, so it should be easier to be targeted.
"Zixuan, do you have candy on you?" Lin Ge thought of a possibility.
Deng Zixuan was a little surprised, and took out a handful of candy from his pocket: "You even know this?" ”
"Can you give me some?" Lin Ge asked.
Deng Zixuan generously stuffed a handful of candy into Singer Lin: "It's all for you, when I went out today, I grabbed a handful in the company's candy plate." ”
"Thank you."
Lin Ge took the candy, and sure enough, he saw the three little ghosts holding Deng Zixuan's feet and grinning teeth standing behind him, staring at the candy in his hand.
Lin Ge calculated that the Tianyan lasted for almost the same time, so he proposed: "Let's find out if there are any clues here, and if not, we will go to Pepe and them to cooperate." ”
"Okay." Kiki replied.
Then, he helped Lin Ge to search in the store. And Lin Ge took advantage of the fact that the two of them were not paying attention, and flicked the candy outside the store with a flick of his backhand. The three imps laughed and ran out the door to pick up candy.
After the little ghost left, Deng Zixuan suddenly felt a lot more relaxed. The three of them rummaged through the dentist's office for a while, but they also found some clues.
"Customer information, appointment list."
"Denture purchase order."
Just as Lin Ge was checking the records of the clinic, Deng Zixuan's scream suddenly came from outside the door. Lin Ge immediately rushed over when he heard the sound, only to see Deng Zixuan sitting on the ground in fright, raising his hand and pointing to the position at the street entrance tremblingly: "Jia, Jiahui!" ”
Qiqi pulled him up from the ground and scolded angrily: "Jiahui scared you like this by putting on makeup, and you said that you were the most daring in the group." ”
Lin Ge took a flashlight to shine at Jiahui at the corner of the street, only to see that her face was pale and her mouth of fangs was very terrifying.
"Jiahui, you're enough!" Deng Zixuan stood up, his feet were still trembling, and he held on to the door of the clinic and scolded and said: "Even if it is arranged by the program team, don't you make a surprise attack every time, don't you know that people are scary and scared to death?" ”
Jiahui didn't say anything, turned around and walked into the tube building.
"Hey. This little girl's skin doesn't give a little color......" Deng Zixuan was just halfway through the scolding, and he was slapped on the head by Qiqi.
"What are you scolding?" Kiki snorted.
Deng Zixuan hurriedly begged for mercy: "Mouth fast, mouth fast." ”
Kiki looked at the place where Jiahui left suspiciously: "Strange, why did Jiahui run back to the tube building again?" ”
Deng Zixuan muttered: "I guess he wants to lure us over and scare us again." ”
"Maybe." Qiqi responded perfunctorily, looked at Lin Ge and asked, "Have you found any new clues?" ”
Lin Ge shook his head.
"So let's go find Pepe now?" Kiki asked.
"Let's take a rest first, you see Zixuan's legs are still trembling." Lin Ge said.
Deng Zixuan smiled awkwardly: "I, I'm fine." ”
Kiki rolled her eyes: "It's a shame." ”
"Hey, it was scary, right? If it were you, you would be scared too. Deng Zixuan said dissatisfiedly.
The three of them rested for a while and decided to continue along the old street in search of Pepe's whereabouts. The dim lights of the old street illuminated the whole street gloomily.
Under the blowing of the cold wind, the rags of the dilapidated stalls were blown up, and the advertising paper flew all over the sky like paper money.
"Tick, tick."
The drops of water on the eaves, dripping on the ground, are like a heartbeat, making people shudder.
"W-"
"W-"
"W-"
At this moment, the old street lamp suddenly flickered. A chill enveloped Lin Ge and the others, so cold that they couldn't help but shiver.
"Hee-hee-hee-"
A cold and terrifying laugh sounded behind Lin Ge, sounding a little different from the laughter of the evil ghost in the tube building, more like the voice of a child.
"How do I hear a child's voice?" Kiki said, and was about to look back, but Lin Ge put his hand on her shoulder to prevent her from turning her head.
"Don't look back, it must be some scary means prepared by the program team, as long as you don't look back, you won't be scared." Lin Ge said.
"Oh." Kiki nodded, although according to the previous shooting habits, they were scared of traffic.
But for some reason, she almost subconsciously believed that Lin Ge's choice, traffic or something, didn't seem to matter.
"Is it that scary?" Deng Zixuan glanced back with doubts, but strangely, he didn't see anything.
"Hee-hee-hee."
The terrifying and cold laughter kept echoing in Deng Zixuan's ears, and he wanted to reach out and hold Lin Ge and Qiqi who were walking forward, but his body didn't obey him, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't even move his fingers. This feeling is like being pressed by a ghost, and the whole body is uncontrollable except for the consciousness to stay awake.
"Hee-hee-hee."
The voice sounded like it was close to his ears, and Deng Zixuan felt that his shoulders were a little heavier, like a child riding on his shoulders.
Deng Zixuan opened his mouth, trying to make a little noise.
But no matter how hard he tried, no matter how big his mouth was, there was not the slightest sound, as if his whole throat and eyes were dumb!
"Hee-hee-hee."
Lin Ge didn't take a few steps, he felt that there was no sound behind him, and when he looked back, he saw Deng Zixuan frozen in place, not following.
At the same time, the moment he turned around, he suddenly felt a chill approaching him, and then, his neck was a lot heavier.
"Ugh."
Lin Ge sighed in his heart, is Deng Zixuan's only role in the plot to drag the oil bottle? Obviously warned him not to look back, but he didn't hear that curiosity killed a cat? The rewards for this side quest are really hard to get.
Lin Ge took out the few candy left in his pocket, spread his hands, and seemed to be waiting for the two little ghosts to "see clearly", and then threw it towards the door of the store on the side.
Sure enough, the moment he threw out the candy, Lin Ge felt a lot lighter on his neck, and he said softly: "It's only three things, and next time, it's the exorcism candy that I eat." ”
Deng Zixuan found that he could move, and hurriedly chased after Lin Ge and Qiqi, and said nervously, "Qi, Qiqi." I feel like something is wrong here. It's too evil. I just felt like I was frozen in place. ”
Lin Ge glanced at him meaningfully: "Maybe you're too tired today." The only thing you need to do now is to keep up with us with the camera, and remember, don't be in the trap of the show again, and don't be curious about everything, curiosity kills cats. ”
"Oh, oh." Deng Zixuan swallowed his saliva subconsciously, he didn't know why, he always felt that if Lin Ge didn't turn back just now, he might not resume his actions. Recalling the horrific scene just now, he didn't want to continue filming.
It's just that Deng Zixuan was afraid of being looked down upon by the newcomers, and at the same time, he didn't dare to go back the same way alone, and went to the corner to find someone else, so he could only follow Lin Ge and Qiqi closely.
Turning into the depths of the old street, the three of them came to a slaughterhouse, Lin Ge suddenly stopped, and his eyes swept towards the store.
He smelled blood.
"What's wrong?" Kiki asked curiously.
Lin Ge said: "The doors of the shops along the way are all closed, but only the doors of this store are not closed. Maybe there's a clue, go in and take a look. ”
"Oh."
Kiki approached the door and shone a flashlight at the transparent glass of the floor-to-ceiling window, trying to see through the window to see if there was anyone inside.
"Ahh
Qiqi suddenly exclaimed, took a step back in fright, and crashed into Lin Ge's arms: "Do you see if there is someone behind the door?" ”
Lin Ge took a flashlight, and there was a "person" standing behind the door.
"Ahh
Kiki screamed in fright and buried her head in Lin Ge's chest.
Lin Ge took a flashlight and took a careful look at it, and said, "Don't be afraid, it's just a puppet." However, it is impossible for an ordinary slaughterhouse to have a puppet from a clothing store, and it should be a scary prop deliberately set up by the program team. ”
Kiki glanced up, and then realized that the doll was indeed no different from the doll in a regular clothing store.
Kiki said dissatisfiedly: "Who wrote the script this time, it's even more terrifying than the previous episodes, and I don't want to shoot it." The program team is really, putting this kind of thing behind the door! ”
"Or, don't shoot anymore?" Deng Zixuan finally waited for this sentence, and hurriedly asked tentatively.
"Shut up!" Kiki said angrily.
At the moment of complaining, Kiki saw the puppet move, but she took a closer look and felt that the puppet had not moved, and immediately wondered if she was dazzled.
Lin Ge opened the door, and the three of them walked into the slaughterhouse. Kiki swept the doll with a flashlight, and the doll was wearing a similar red dress and a wig similar to her. The expressionless face looked a little oozing under the illumination of the flashlight.
Kiki walked over and spun the doll around, facing away from the three of them.
"What do you do?" Deng Zixuan asked puzzled.
Kiki patted the ash on her hand: "Its face always feels a little oozing, I turn it around." The program team deliberately asked the puppet to wear a dress similar to mine, obviously trying to scare me! ”
"Makes sense." Deng Zixuan nodded.
Lin Ge felt that it was not so simple, because at that moment, he also saw the same picture as Qiqi-
The puppet blinked.
Lin Ge finally understood at this time why the walled city was a "fog city" in the state of Tianyan, and the streets were full of this kind of thing for half a day, which had already made him a little numb.
However, it can be seen from the previous incident of the little ghost that the ghosts here are not all evil ghosts, just like the "Zombie" tube building.
But it is troublesome to distinguish.
In the slaughterhouse, a strong smell of blood penetrated into the nose. Kiki couldn't stand the smell a little, and walked back to the door: "You guys go in and look for it, I'm waiting for you here, the smell inside is too strong, I can't stand it." ”
"Then, then I'll accompany Kiki at the door. I'll leave it to you, you can do it, come on. Deng Zixuan also retreated to the door.
In the end, Lin Ge entered the slaughterhouse alone, he came to the inner room, and took a flashlight to shine around. On the front plan board, there was a pile of minced meat, which seemed to have just been slaughtered, and the blood was still flowing down the board. In the middle of the minced meat, there seems to be a black ribbon.
Lin Ge raised his hand and pulled out the ribbon, which turned out to be a work card.
"Peggy, employee number 1023416, host of the online station."
In the photo on the work card, Xie Peipei's face is distorted and looks very weird.
Lin Ge picked up the bone cleaver on the side, flicked the minced meat on the board, and deduced from some bones that it was a human corpse.
In all probability...... It's the owner of this tableau card, Pepe.
Lin Ge put the work card back on the pile of minced meat, then took out an exorcism talisman and pasted it, silently recited a few spells, and left the room.
"Help, help, me."
The moment Lin Ge stepped out of the room, he heard an ethereal female voice, which seemed to come from the direction of the door.
Qiqi saw Lin Ge come out and asked, "Is there anyone inside?" ”
"Nope." Lin Ge shook his head.
Kiki immediately said, "Then let's get out of here, I always feel that this place is eerie." ”
"Okay."
The three of them were about to leave, and when Kiki turned around, Lin Ge's flashlight swept to her back and found two white palm prints.
"What's wrong?" Kiki asked.
"It's fine."
"Oh."
"Ahh
Lin Ge's attention was focused on the palm print, which looked a little like the hands of a woman and a child, relatively small, with slender five fingers.
Howled coldly by Qiqi, Lin Ge subconsciously swept at her with a flashlight and asked, "What's wrong?" ”
"That, the puppet, it's, it's turned back!"
Singer Lin swept over with a flashlight, only to see the doll that was turned by Kiki with his back to him, and then turned back at this time, with an oozing smile on his originally expressionless face.
A creepy laugh rang out in the slaughterhouse, but when Lin Ge looked closely at the puppet's face, he returned to his previous expressionless appearance. Immediately afterwards, the puppet's eyes revealed two bloody tears.
Lin Ge thought of something, and gently patted Qiqi's back to show comfort: "It should be a scary mechanism set up by the program team, I'll deal with it, you wait for me at the door." ”
"Oh, oh." Qiqi was so frightened that she hurriedly followed Lin Ge's instructions and stepped out of the slaughterhouse and went outside to wait for him.
"Will you go in by yourself or will I do it?" Lin Ge looked at the puppet and asked.
Suddenly, the puppet revealed a hideous face, its mouth opened to the size of half a face, revealing two rows of terrifying fangs, and bit at Lin Ge.
Lin Ge stepped back, dodging the puppet's attack, and as soon as he raised his hand, a yellow talisman was pasted on the puppet's head: "Fixed!" ”
The talisman successfully fixed the puppet, and Lin Ge kicked sideways and kicked the puppet directly inside. Then he stepped forward and lifted one of the doll's hands, dragged it to the inner board, took out the butcher knife, and plunged it into the doll's chest to cut it open.
I saw a cloud of gray smoke waft out of the puppet's chest and flew into the minced meat on the board.
Snort –
As the gray smoke flew into the minced meat, there was a soft sound, and the exorcism charm that Lin Ge had pasted on the work card before ignited.
Soon, Pepe's work card was ignited, and in the burning, Lin Ge saw that the original distorted face on the work card gradually recovered as before.
"Thank you...... Thank. ”
