There was a deathly silence in the dark square. All I could hear was two breaths, one rapid and one slow. Being in this extreme darkness, combined with my previous experiences and my deep-seated knowledge of the square, made me wonder when my breathing would quicken and my heart would beat faster. I could feel the sweat on my back.

Even though I could hear the faint sound of breathing, I couldn't help but ask, "Beauty, are you still there?" ”

With a "snap", a bright light pierced through the extreme darkness like a sharp blade. I subconsciously turned my head to look, but I saw a fair and pretty face popping out in the darkness. I was already very nervous, and I was like a frightened bird, and I almost reacted. In the darkness, a slender jade hand appeared and held me down. There was a touch of helplessness in his white face: "Big brother, can you not be surprised." The ghost didn't come, I was scared to death by you first. ”

Seeing that it was Lin Yumin, my heart also settled down, and at the same time I felt that I was embarrassed again. But after thinking about it, the moment Lin Yumin turned on the flashlight just now, I did seem to see a blue-faced and white face like a ghost. It's just that it was indeed Lin Yumin. A somewhat horrible thought came to my mind, but it only existed for a moment before I dispelled it.

Lin Yumin has been exploring spirits for a long time, so he has a lot of experience and the best equipment he buys. The brightness of the flashlight in her hand is not only very high, but also far away. Even in the darkness of this concentration, a ray of light could be broken, and the pillar of light went straight to the other side of the square.

The bright light swayed from side to side under the swing of Lin Yuminyu's hand, seemingly shining indiscriminately, but it was actually exploring the situation on the fourth and fifth floors. I guess it's looking for those people.

The light kept passing by, and so did my gaze. Although I haven't been here, the people in the club, especially Liao Lanlan, have studied this place a lot, so I can basically have a general impression of what this place looks like. To be honest, if you just look at the photos, it doesn't really look like a square, but more like a tube building seen in some ancient TV dramas. However, considering that the buildings here are already in the 90s of the last century, it could not be so fashionable.

Lin Yumin said: "They also brought flashlights when they went in, and it was impossible not to turn on the lights in such a dark situation." But now there is no movement here. I said, "Yes, it's so dark here, anyone who isn't blind should be able to see your flashlight." "I don't know what Lin Yumin thinks at the moment, but combined with the scream just now, I just feel that the situation inside shouldn't be much better.

Lin Yumin thought about it, then looked at the elevator that crossed in front of him and said, "Let's go up to the fourth floor first." ”

I took out my phone and wanted to turn on the flashlight, only to remember that the phone had just been broken and could not be used, so I had no choice but to put it back again. But seeing Lin Yumin take out another small flashlight from his bag and hand it over, I said: "Thank you" and took it easily.

Lin Yumin's vigilance is very strong, and the flashlight in his hand seems to be shining on the ground in front of him, but in fact, his ears have been paying attention to the movements around him. This woman had stepped on the point beforehand, and she was very familiar with this place, and she did not hesitate too much with every step. Thinking about it this way, although the place we are in now is a so-called alien space, the layout is still the same as that of a shopping mall during the day.

Instead, I swirled around with my glowing flashlight as I walked, just as casually as I usually walked around in the mall. With the help of a flashlight, I could see that the shops were very old. The shops leaning against the corridor outside are fine, but the roller shutters pulled down one by one by one are plastered with red notices on them, and on them is one of the biggest lies of mankind, "Wangpu rental".

The light kept moving, and I looked at the shop deep in the hallway. These shops are not like "prosperous shops for rent" inside, because they are outside, so there are still people using them. In the contrast of the light, you can see that there are some strange lines sprayed on the roller shutter, and the lines are intertwined with each other to form an indescribable and unspeakable pattern, which is not like a painting, but more like some kind of text. However, the light kept sweeping ahead, and almost every roller shutter could be seen to have this red lettering.

Although it is normal to say that there are graffiti on the roller shutter, it is usually an advertisement, but I think these graffiti are a little familiar, and then I suddenly remembered that the charm that my grandmother asked me for when I was a child was not densely packed with this kind of thing, and I was surprised that there was an advertisement here, but a charm.

I've never studied anything so advanced, so I don't know anything about these spells. At that time, I looked at the incantations on the rows of painted roller shutters, the red font reflected a little ghostly light in the light in the dark night, but it was particularly eye-catching, there was an indescribable evil, and I felt even more weird and inexplicable.

I asked Lin Yumin, "Do you know what these charms mean?" Lin Yumin glanced at it and said, "I haven't understood it either." But when have you ever seen someone draw a sigil on their door? I shook my head and said, "No." Lin Yumin said: "When I was visiting the spirits in the eastern suburbs, that is, on your side, I once went to a village as a guest. Inside, there was an old mansion that was about the same as it had collapsed, and the door was painted with charms in cinnabar. ”

Lin Yumin could tell from my accent that I was from the eastern suburbs. I said, "Growing up, I never heard of such a strange rule in any village. ”

"They are not locals, they are said to have moved here a hundred or two hundred years ago," Lin said. They told me that usually the houses with such charms are basically murderous houses, and there are people who have died in them. Charms can seal the spirit. That house used to be the richest family in the village, but a tragedy occurred later, and all the dozen or so members of the house were gone. Since then, there have been rumors of murder in the village. According to the rules handed down from their ancestors, the villagers used cinnabar to draw talismans, which are said to be able to suppress the evil spirits and prevent them from seducing the living people in the village. ”

"Later, when I went back, I heard that the village was under construction, and the excavator directly bulldozed the remaining few broken walls of the house. In fact, it is strange to say, after so many years, the house has almost collapsed due to the wind and sun, except for the door with the charm painted and the old walls on both sides. ”

Lin Yumin's words made me think a little, and I suddenly thought: "If the spell here is also like this, then is there any unjust soul in it?" As far as the eye can see, there are no less than dozens of shops painted with red charms on both sides of the first floor, and there are really nothing in them, and if one can't close the two of us, it will just be gone. Thinking of this, I couldn't help but shudder.

Lin Yumin said: "Don't think about it, we don't know what these things are, now go up and take a look." I didn't dare to speak, so I silently put the lights back, after all, it's not two people visiting the mall now.

The escalators on each floor cross each other, so you don't think there's anything strange about it. I've been to a lot of squares, and their escalators go up and down in parallel, which is basically not like this. I don't know why when I look at the elevator from the bottom up, I have the illusion that the elevator is not going upstairs, but going up to the sky. Probably I thought too much. It is said that the establishment of this square is a huge formation, the purpose is to suppress evil spirits, and some of the construction inside is also for its own purpose. But I don't understand that.

Now at this time, there is no need to care about whether the escalator in front of me is going up or down, and there is no electricity anyway, so I stepped up directly.

The two of us didn't speak, just walked silently. Lin Yumin's steps are not fast, and I can only adjust my speed when I follow her. The surroundings were empty and leisurely, and my thoughts were spreading. I've always been a distracted person, but now I've thought about it a lot. But in the end, I found that what I was thinking was getting more and more biased.

At this time, Lin Yumin said: "Little brother, are you afraid, afraid that my sister will leave you?" "It seemed like a joke, but it was so serious in my ears, like a hammer smashing into my heart.

Actually, I did think about this question, but with my life experience at the time, I quickly put it behind me. In this case, this is an awkward and exciting question. I didn't know how to answer all of a sudden, and I was afraid that I would make the other party unhappy if I answered wrong.

I don't know why, my already chaotic thoughts suddenly remembered Lin Yumin's white face when I first came in. At that time I really felt like I was staring at a ghost. I subconsciously looked at Lin Yumin secretly, only to feel that her face was beautiful and moving, and there was nothing terrifying.
