Chapter 5: There's a headless monster at the end of the hallway
"Of course it's human!" Leng Ruoyan wondered, "If she wasn't human, how could she have a human body?"
"If she is really human," the fourth watch still said suspiciously: "Then why did she walk so slowly? The 'Sun Yabin' big turtle raised by Master Li of the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion crawled faster than him!"
"It's so dark in the corridor, as long as it's a person, you naturally have to take every step of the way, be careful every step!" Leng Ruoyan patiently reasoned: "Only ghosts can fly, only ghosts can float in the black, ghosts don't have to go!"
"Even if you're right, even if she's a person," the fourth watch still said suspiciously, "How do you know that she's not a bad person or an enemy?"
"How can it be a bad person and an enemy?" Leng Ruoyan retorted: "You don't see that she came up from downstairs, how can it be an enemy and a bad person downstairs?"
The fourth watch was short of words, sighed, and was about to speak, when he suddenly heard the blood iris call from the side: "This sister, are you lost? We are here." β
It was useless to say anything about the fourth watch, because the blood iris had already raised his voice to greet the other party.
The woman froze, and finally, shuffling her feet, moved towards them. The three of them all noticed that she was indeed walking a little hard, and that she had to grope her way forward, and it seemed that she was very old and very sick, and that even when others saw her walk, they would find it difficult and laborious.
Leng Ruoyan couldn't bear to say, "I'll go over and help her over." β
The fourth watch grabbed the kind-hearted Leng Ruoyan and stopped: "Now is not the time to be kind, there have been so many strange things recently, before we find out her identity, let's be careful." β
Blood Iris snorted coldly: "What a suspicious coward, what is there to be careful about? Since she is a woman who came up downstairs, she is either a little poem, a little poem, a little song, or a little sister of Gardenia, she is all her own person, what are you afraid of!"
The fourth watch retorted: "Are you two pig brains? If it's Gardenia, how can you be so unfamiliar with the path? Why don't you respond to your greetings? There are obviously ghosts in this!"
Leng Ruoyan was stunned, although she was not sure whether what the fourth watch said was accurate, in the end she still didn't insist on walking over to help the other party.
While the three of them were arguing, the woman, although she walked slowly and slowly, approached with a faint moonlight. The closer she walked, the more the three of them could feel that she was walking extremely unnaturally, and it was also abnormal, and even more inappropriate.
Blood Iris coughed dryly and asked, "Who is my sister?"
There was still no response on the other side, but her man came closer, and stretched out her arms and hands straight.
Leng Ruoyan held down the silver ring with both hands, and the fourth watch only felt furious in his heart, he began to regret that when he went upstairs just now, he should have brought his machete and big shield with him, but now that he is in danger, he doesn't even have a self-protection guy in his hand!
The woman's hands were still groping in the dark, she touched and touched, slowly, slowly approached the eyes of the three people, the light was still too dark, and the person who came still couldn't see the facial features and outline clearly.
Blood Iris only felt that his scalp was fried, and Leng Ruoyan was even more cold, neither retreating, nor entering, nor fighting.
The fourth watch saw that the woman was getting closer, and the three of them crowded to the door of the flower peony "room eight", there was no way back, and he was afraid that there was an ambush in the room, his eyes flashed, and he looked at the corsage of the woman's clothes, and laughed "haha" at the moment, turned his head to Leng Ruoyan and Blood Iris, and smiled:
"Don't scare yourself! Look at whose peony dress it is? It turns out to be Sister Peony's! Everyone has worked so hard to find her, it turns out that she, a naughty ghost, hides here quietly, pretending to be a ghost to scare us! Fortunately, Lord Ben is bold, meticulous, and discerning, and can recognize this dress at a glanceββ"
He was about to brag about it further, but he realized that something seemed wrong.
Because when he was boasting proudly, when he saw Leng Ruoyan and Blood Iris, the two girls opened their mouths wide, their eyes widened, and even their ear holes were widened, and their nostrils were even more wide.
They wanted to speak, but they couldn't say a complete sentence, and their throats only kept making a strange sound of "clucking", and the two of them had twenty fingers on their four hands, pointing at the back of the fourth watch, as if they were anxious to tell the fourth watch......
Behind the four watches?
Behind him is ......
Isn't it a flower peony? What is there to be strange, nervous, and frightening?
So, the four more smiled and turned back.
He turned slowly and turned his head.
By this time, the woman was already very close to Si Geng, so close that her clothes could touch him under the influence of the wind in the corridor.
Yes, as soon as the fourth watch turned around, he saw her.
This time he really saw her, because he was so close to her, it was almost glued together.
The fourth watch can not only see her, but even touch her, sniff and kiss her, this time, he can see it clearly, it is really real.
People are indeed flower peonies.
- But she doesn't have a head.
The headless flower peony was reaching out to him, groping, as if to get something back, and out of nowhere it made a hoarse voice: "My head is missing...... Give my head back......"
- Oh my God!
The fourth watch "boom", like a huge thunder in the sky, was smashing and exploding on the top of his head!
For a while, Si Watch's feet were weak, his mind was blank, he was careful, and he almost jumped out of his mouth, she was indeed the flower peony they were looking for, but it was a flower peony without a head!
And this flower peony field without a head actually groped up step by step, level by level, and asked them to get her head back!
Ghosts!
At the moment when the headless female ghost appeared, the fourth watch wanted to run away, no matter what pity and cherishing jade, what heroism, he didn't want it all, he was so frightened that he peed his pants, and Leng Ruoyan and Blood Iris, who were not far away, also smelled a peculiar smell of urine.
He tried to run away, but somehow, his feet. I've been trembling and trembling, and I've completely disobeyed him.
The headless female ghost was so close that he wanted to push her away with his hands, but his two hands were numb all the time, and he couldn't move at all.
The fourth watch is like falling into an endless nightmare, when the nightmare is at the end, he wants to move, he can't move, he wants to wake up, he can't wake up, he can't even scream, and even in the end, he can't even blink his eyes.
This is no longer a dream, because the nightmare has become a reality, and the nightmare in reality is far more terrible than a dream.
Leng Ruoyan decided to do one thing at this time.
-- No matter what you do, it's better than waiting to wake up from a dream.
Among the three people, Leng Ruoyan is not the most courageous, she is occasionally quite timid, but she told herself at this time: Can't be afraid, can't retreat, there are no ghosts in this world, the peony girl is so good, even if she becomes a headless ghost, there is no reason to be embarrassed by these people who have helped her.
Therefore, Leng Ruoyan boldly made a try-
She directly uncovered the peony flower skirt that the female ghost was covering outside, and touched her neck.
No head!
There is indeed no head!
She still didn't believe that Peony would be proficient in the "blinding method" of the He family, and hid her head in her clothes or somewhere else, and touched it a few more times if she didn't believe in evil.
Still no head!
Now, Leng Ruoyan is completely sure that the flower peony standing in front of her is a female ghost who can move but has no head!
Leng Ruoyan turned her head, and a strange expression appeared on her face, which seemed to be smiling but not smiling, and crying but not crying: "Little tail, four watches, she really has no head......"
The headless female ghost stretched out two cold arms, and the ghost's voice called out in a fluttering voice: "Yet-I-of-head-come-"
All of a sudden, the trembling Leng Ruoyan, the numb Si Watch, and the trembling Blood Irises screamed almost at the same time, and they walked away, quickly avoided, and dispersed, leaving only a headless female ghost, standing upright under the moonlight.
In a stiff, stiff manner, she repeated the pleading sentence repeatedly: "Yet-I-the-head-come-come-me-head-come-come-me-head-come-to-go-head-to-head-to-head-to-to-to-
The three people who were frightened and scattered retreated in horror, and as soon as they retreated, they hit the door of Peony's "Room No. 8".
I don't know if it's because the three of them were too scared and pushed too hard, or if the door was simply hidden and not closed, only to hear the sound of "boom", the door collapsed!
Three people, two women and one man, stumbled, stumbled, and pulled together, and fell into the "No. 8 room" of Hua Peony.
The three of them retreated unguardedly, sideways, and fell in, the blood iris fell halfway, and immediately rolled aside; the fourth watch fell to the ground and flew away; Leng Ruoyan's body was crooked, and he took advantage of the momentum to fly back and leap away diagonally.
For a while, the three people who were entangled suddenly separated!
The Peony girl's room was darker than the corridor, and no one knew where her companion was? Where was the headless female ghost? It was pitch black all around.
He subconsciously reached out and touched a sticky, round thing, and he tripped over this thing.
He took a closer look at the thing, and on the ball, a pair of bloody eyes of a woman were staring at him, and the four watchmen screamed "Mom" in fright, and threw it away!
It was a woman's head, with long hair and a cool face, the head of the poppy in the room.
The poppy's head, leaving a beautiful parabola in the air, landed on the floor, "gurgling" along the way, and rolled to which corner of the room.
The fourth breathed a sigh of relief, pulled a few times in the dark, grabbed a round stool, blocked in front of him, and stood up while crawling and rolling, while waving the round stool and beating randomly, spinning, shouting slogans, back and forth more than ten times back and forth, afraid of someone, but also afraid of ghosts to bully him and hurt himself.
A sweep came down, and the room could only hear the wind breaking of the round stool and his hysterical shouting, and nothing else.
Thankfully not!
The fourth watch felt tired, the more the round stool danced, the more difficult it became, he gradually withdrew his hand, he gasped a little, but his heart was in a mess.
What's bad is that it's completely dark in the room.
It's so dark that he doesn't know the truth at all, and it's so dark that it's hard to distinguish between others.
The worst thing is that now he is only one person. He didn't know where Leng Ruoyan and Blood Irist were now, and he couldn't hear their response at all.
Not at all!
