Chapter 1 Bus
…… In the thick fog, a dilapidated bus was slowly approaching along the endless highway.
There were 7 people in the bus, three women and four men.
They sat in the car, looking out the window at the thick fog with different expressions.
Doubt, confusion, fear......
But other than that, they were all the same pale.
It was as if on the way, they experienced something terrible.
The bus traveled until it finally came to a stop outside an old and old villa.
The villa is surrounded by a thick fog and is completely dark, mysterious and eerie.
The doors opened, as if to tell the passengers inside...... It's time to get off.
The seven people in the car slowly got out of the car, and they looked back with an indescribable fear in their eyes.
Because, in the driver's seat of this bus, there should have been a driver's place...... But it was empty.
Yes, this bus...... There is no driver.
As the last passenger gets off the bus, the doors of the bus close automatically and start driving again until it disappears into the depths of the fog......
The seven people standing outside the black villa looked at each other and saw the extremely ugly looks on each other's faces.
"Let's go......"
"I don't think we have any other choice."
At the critical moment, a thin man in the crowd spoke, wearing a dark brown square-framed wooden glasses, and his delicate face showed a calmness that was different from others.
"Really...... Do you really want to go in? ”
The voice of the beautiful woman with gold earrings trembled.
She was dressed very hot, so it was cold.
Wrap your hands over your arms and rub them constantly.
"What if it's ...... What about insecurity? ”
The others were silent.
Originally, they thought it was some kind of prank, or some kind of special invitation to do the show......
However, when they found out that there was no driver on the bus, they fell into deep fear!
Although the people were once staunch materialists, something that had happened before was ...... It's unbelievable!
"So, are you going to walk into the fog?"
Ning Qiushui took a deep breath and tried to make himself appear calm.
In fact, his heart was beating very fast.
From the time he received the mysterious letter to the time he came to this place, it was less than an hour.
But this hour has had too much impact on his worldview!
"Have you forgotten the fat man who was at the intersection and jumped out of the car by himself?"
At the mention of the fat man, the woman's beautiful eyes were immediately filled with great fear!
Her legs were so weak that she almost didn't stand firm!
Previously, there were a total of 8 people on the bus.
Everyone was asleep when they suddenly appeared on the bus.
Among them, there was a fat man who kept scolding on the road, saying that it must be some unscrupulous program dealer who wanted to invite them to do a reality show.
The fat man said impatiently that their phones must have been replaced, that the driver of the car was actually driving the bus under their feet, that the fog scene was specially created dry ice, etc......
Finally, when the bus stopped at an intersection, the fat man opened the window, jumped out of the car, and walked into the fog alone......
Things have developed to this point, and everything is normal.
However, when the group came to the next intersection, they found something floating in the foggy traffic light......
As the bus slowly approached, they could see clearly that the traffic light had been fluttering...... It was the bloody human skin of the fat man who left earlier!
The skin was completely stripped off, and everyone could even see that the fat man's expression was extremely frightened and distorted, as if he had seen something particularly terrible before he died!
And on the pole of the traffic light, a large area of scarlet blood is constantly dripping!
This scene directly scared everyone in the car stupid!
Someone didn't believe in evil and pulled the car window, so the disgusting smell of blood floated in the car......
…
At the mention of the fat man, everyone's faces were very ugly, and some even began to retch.
“…… Since no one dared to approach the mist, we would have to enter this black villa......"
Ning Qiushui took a deep breath.
He was equally afraid.
But for some reason, whether it was seeing the bloody human skin floating on the traffic light or smelling the smell of blood, his reaction was far less than that of the others.
Moreover, he was intrigued by the mysterious letter from earlier.
The owner of the letter...... What exactly do you want to tell yourself?
As Ning Qiushui took the lead, everyone also followed behind him, pushed open the iron door of the black villa, and entered the garden outside the villa.
There was silence all around.
The silence was eeri.
Everyone had to lean close together, and the beautiful woman with gold earrings in the middle felt that someone was rubbing her oil, but she just frowned and didn't say anything.
Rub the oil, just rub the oil...... It's better than being skinned for some reason!
In this way, everyone came to the door of the black villa, and Ning Qiushui knocked on the door.
Knock Knock Knock –
As he knocked on the door, there was soon a sound of footsteps coming from the inner door, and the people behind couldn't help but take a few steps back, staring at the door, as if they were very nervous!
Squeak –
The door was opened.
However, the horror scene that everyone expected did not appear.
The one who opened the door was a very delicate and beautiful girl.
She seemed to be only fifteen or sixteen years old.
"Arrived?"
"Come in."
The girl spoke, and everyone realized that he was actually ...... It's a boy.
Very beautiful boy.
But the boy's voice was cold.
There wasn't much emotion.
Everyone watched Ning Qiushui follow the boy in, and they looked at each other for a while, not knowing whether to follow or not.
"You'd better come in quickly......"
Just as everyone was hesitating, the young man's voice came from the room again.
"That fog...... It's not safe. ”
At the mention of the fog, everyone remembered the fat man who had died tragically before, and they were frightened and rushed into the room.
The hall of the villa is large and classically decorated, with neatly arranged bookshelves on the left, a wooden staircase on the right, and three large sofas in the middle of the resting area.
In the center of the sofa is a burning brazier.
In the room, four people were gathered in the middle of the brazier.
They looked at the flames in the brazier, and they were stunned, and they did not speak.
The atmosphere is in such silence...... It's getting colder.
"Excuse me...... Where is this? ”
"Why are we here?"
"What's going on with the fog and the bus outside?"
“……”
Finally, after thinking for a while, Ning Qiushui asked these three questions.
However, no one answered him.
Even the four people who were roasting the fire didn't even look at him at all.
At this time, Liu Chengfeng, the bearded man behind Ning Qiushui, couldn't help it:
"What do I ask you to say?"
"Are you dumb?"
He was so loud that it rumbled through the room, making people's eardrums hurt.
Finally, the man in the suit who was sitting on the sofa directly opposite Ning Qiushui spoke:
"I know you guys have a lot of questions......"
"If you can make it back alive from the first blood gate, I'll tell you the answers to these questions."
When everyone heard this, a sense of foreboding suddenly filled their hearts.
"Bloodgate? What is that? ”
Ning Qiushui's heart moved, remembering the phone call that the mysterious woman had called him earlier, and asked.
The man in the suit didn't raise his head and pointed to the third floor of the villa.
"Your time is running out, the blood gate will open in less than 5 minutes, and when the time comes, you will enter the terrifying world in the blood gate and complete the tasks on the blood gate."
"When you're done, the bus will pick you up."
After he finished speaking, Yan Youping, a short, thin woman with two ponytails in the crowd, asked weakly:
"What if...... What happens if you don't complete the task? ”
Hearing this, the man in the suit slowly raised his head and looked at Yan Youping.
Those calm and indifferent eyes made Yan Youping's heart tremble.
"Will die."
"And it's ...... He died a very miserable death. ”
When they heard this, their whole bodies softened.
They would love to think that it was just a joke.
However...... The serious expression of the man in the suit dispelled the last trace of luck in their hearts.
"Yes...... No, don't you go? ”
Another young man, who had dyed his hair blonde, swallowed and asked.
The man in the suit glanced at him.
"Yes."
"But...... You'd better not sleep in the future. ”
The blonde man was stunned:
"Why?"
The man in the suit does not smile at the flesh:
"Because, if you don't go to the Blood Gate to complete the task, then ...... Behind the Blood Gate, something will come out to you. ”
"Wherever you flee, they will find you."
"And then ......"
The man in the suit didn't continue, but everyone already knew the ending.
Ning Qiushui glanced at the third floor, and finally asked the man in the suit:
"Do you have any other advice before we go in?"
The man in the suit was slightly stunned, and then moved his gaze to Ning Qiushui, and after seeing that Ning Qiushui was different from everyone's calmness, a trace of imperceptible admiration flashed in his eyes.
"Tell me...... Yes. ”
"The story behind the Blood Gate, although extremely dangerous, there is more than one way to live, as long as you find a way to live, you want to complete the mission and survive...... It's not hard. ”
Ning Qiushui nodded.
"Thank you."
After he finished speaking, he actually took the first step and walked upstairs.
Seeing that Ning Qiushui was so decisive, after a fierce struggle in his eyes, Liu Chengfeng, who had a beard, gritted his teeth and walked up.
"Damn, little brother...... How bold you are! ”
Coming to Ning Qiushui's back, Liu Chengfeng whispered.
When he was on the road, he had actually noticed Ning Qiushui.
It's hard not to pay attention.
Whether it was discovering the fat man's human skin or smelling the rich smell of blood, Ning Qiushui didn't react much.
"Daring?"
Ning Qiushui laughed self-deprecatingly.
"Do you think we have a choice?"
Liu Chengfeng is very tall, so even if he is one step lower than Ning Qiushui, his height is only a little lower than him.
"I saw the fat man's human skin before, little brother, you didn't blink your eyelids, didn't you ...... before? Do that? ”
"Which one?"
"Killers."
"You've read too many novels, where do so many killers come from in reality?"
"Uh...... That ......"
"I'm a doctor."
"Oh~ no wonder, forensic doctor?"
"Almost, veterinarian."
Liu Chengfeng: "......"
The two chatted and came to the third floor of the villa.
As soon as they came up, the two stopped talking.
The strong smell of blood was accompanied by a strong smell of rotting wood.
On the third floor of the villa, there was nothing but a blood-soaked ...... Wooden doors.
On the wooden door, scarlet blood letters, a line of words was written:
[Take care of the paralyzed elderly person in bed for five days]
"Taking care of the elderly...... That's our task this time. ”
Ning Qiushui's eyes flickered.
The others also came up one after another, and when they saw the blood words on the wooden door, they were all stunned.
"It's just...... It's that simple? ”
The woman with gold earrings, Wang Yuning, was a little incredulous.
Everyone whispered, and suddenly, they all stopped, seemed to have the same sense, and looked at the wooden door in unison.
Giggle –
Inside the wooden door, it looked like something was pushing the door.
Soon, the wooden door was pushed open by a pair of pale hands!
As the blood-stained wooden door slowly opened, everyone's eyes suddenly went black and they lost consciousness......
