Although some food had been prepared in the kitchen before, the things the two brought back had emergency functions, and the atmosphere became better. Lu Ning asked the doctor to confirm that there was no problem with the antipyretic medicine and then prepared to take it. Ling Yan and Pang Lingling took her to the kitchen to get some hot water and brought her dinner back.
Nowadays, few people are interested in cooking. Although the kitchen is next door, they are still acting alone. Many people still hold the candles on the couple's side and don't let go. After all, no one knows how far the warning distance is, even if There are also people who look frightened even when they are even slightly far away, and even eat and drink less in order to avoid going to the bathroom.
So today’s dinner was a thick soup made from various ingredients cut into a pot. Lu Ning was sick, and couldn’t eat meat at all now, so he ate it slowly with a chocolate bar next to him. In fact, the others didn’t I was very interested, but I just drank some for the sake of physical strength.
It rained all night, maybe that was their current situation. Just in the middle of the dinner, the whole room suddenly went dark, and there was no light except a little candlelight on the table. Suddenly there were screams, angry shouts, and curses, and someone even overturned a chair.
"Calm down, everyone! Move closer to the candlelight!" Yu Zhisong shouted, which made the chaos a little weaker. At this time, the nouveau riche's angry voice rang out: "That electrician! Didn't he go check it out? How could such a problem happen?"
"I checked it, but it can't be repaired. Didn't I tell you? I'm sorry." Zhang Fuyuan lit a cigarette leisurely, "Also, I am not an electrician. Although I don't mean to be rude to the electrician brothers, I still have to emphasize it. .”
"Can't it be fixed?"
"Master said it was due to the aging of the parts. Without replacement parts, it can't be repaired." A relatively calm young man under Zhang Fuyuan spoke, "In addition, we don't have enough fuel. Even if there is no problem with the generator, we cannot run it at full capacity for seven days. We have parked two of them as backup."
"Backup? Then what are you waiting for? Start up those two units quickly!" the upstart said impatiently.
"Who is going? Are you going?" Zhang Fuyuan was happy and puffed out a puff of smoke from a distance, "This is a dark place, and there is a ghost in the house who has not killed anyone. I don't dare to go. The worst is to sleep here all night. It will be dawn tomorrow. Go check with a few more people. If you’re not afraid, go ahead and start it.”
"I..." The upstart cursed a few words in a low voice, but he was not stupid. He did not dare to anger Zhang Fuyuan in this situation, so he could only let his temper go around him, "Get out of the way! I want to stay away from the candle." near-point!"
"Lu Ning, doesn't it matter if you stay here? If you feel really uncomfortable, let's go back to the room and sleep." Yin Lian was still very concerned about Lu Ning's health.
"It's okay...it's just one night. The weather is pretty good now, so it's nothing." Lu Ning smiled at Yin Lian, hugged her knees with her hands and huddled on the chair. Not long after, she suddenly felt warm. It was Yin Lian who covered her body with her suit.
"If you have a fever, keep warm and don't catch a cold again."
"Thanks……"
"You're welcome, go to sleep."
Compared to the little warmth here, there was a quarrel on the other side.
The candle's fire is already the only source of light and must not be extinguished. However, the couple clings to each other and refuses to let go. This night, they have to discuss a shift order to look at the candles. Everyone has an idea about how to distribute them. , no one can convince anyone else.
"Every hour, who sees first and who comes last?"
"You want to watch the first half of the night and the next half of the night? What should I do if I fall asleep after watching for such a long time? I'm tired."
In the end, it was Hong Zehao who used force to arrange people's time. Since it was more difficult to guard in the second half of the night, the final order of allocation this time was: police officer Xiao Liu was in the first shift, and the couple were in the same shift, followed by Wei Boyong, the man with dyed hair, and the two The band members are Yu Zhisong, Uncle Xing, Zhang Fuyuan, Ling Yan, a tall boy, and Hong Zehao.
The upstarts didn't let him get close to the candle at all. After all, this person couldn't be trusted no matter what, and the others also tried their best to let them rest. For some reason, Yin Lian was not considered among those on duty at night, which was a bit strange.
At this moment, the wind started to blow again outside. Zhang Fuyuan put out his cigarette, coughed, and said: "The weather is going to change again."
Things have indeed changed again. The weather in the mountains also changes rapidly. In the early morning, Ling Yan was woken up. After Zhang Fuyuan woke up Ling Yan, he immediately raised his index finger to his mouth and softly "shhh", and then whispered to Ling Yan: "Don't panic, the upstart is dead. "
Ling Yan was not one to panic. After hearing this, he just nodded and looked outside. There was already a faint light, but there was also the sound of raindrops hitting the window.
"It's raining moderately. It's been raining for a while. Do you want to wake everyone up?" Zhang Fuyuan's face did not show the panic that someone died around him. Instead, he talked about it as if he were reading a newspaper in the morning.
"Did you find it?"
"It was still dark when I took over. It was before dawn. It would be good if the thin candle could illuminate the surrounding area for one meter. That kid died in his seat."
Ling Yan raised his head and looked over. Indeed, because the upstart was squeezed out, even if he sat as close to the candle as possible, he would still be three meters away from the candle. It was indeed dark at night. Now he was lying on the chair with his head up, and a huge gash was cut on his neck. It was exactly the same as the way Yang Na died before, but because there was no one around, he just fell on the table and chair.
"He was confident that he wouldn't die, but now..." Ling Yan sighed, "Then, let's wake everyone up."
Soon, everyone was woken up. Originally, the two of them woke everyone up one by one, but Pang Lingling woke up just opposite the upstart, and woke everyone up with a scream.
"What... happened?" Lu Ning felt her head was heavy and she opened her eyes drowsily. Yin Lian's hand was already pressed on her forehead.
"Your fever is getting worse."
"Sister Yin Lian, I... don't feel very well. What happened?"
"Someone is dead. He was killed last night. This has nothing to do with us now. I will take you upstairs to rest."
"No...wait, who?" Lu Ning slowly sat up and saw the body of the upstart.
Although her mind was dizzy, she still remembered this scene: "This is... the ghost who killed... and cut his throat."
"Yes, don't think about it. I'll take you upstairs - Ling Yan, can you do me a favor? Get some hot water and I'll help her change her clothes." Yin Lian turned to ask for help.
"good."
"Hey! Don't you have anything to say?" Wei Boyong couldn't understand what this woman wanted to say.
"Didn't it be verified yesterday that ghosts can kill people in the crowd? What's there to say? He's just unlucky. Instead of caring about this, it's better to wait for this morning's text message." Yin Lian replied coldly and led Lu Ning up. Floor.
"Why is Sister Lian so nice to me?" Lu Ning asked with some doubts as she changed her suit to Yin Lian.
"Maybe it's because you are lucky. Didn't you say that you always meet people who care about you?"
"Don't be ridiculous, Sister Lian, I still know that relationships between people develop slowly."
"Well...it's okay if you really want to know. Generally speaking, you are the kind of person I envy." Yin Lian smiled slightly and opened the door, walked into the room and took out the large wardrobe prepared in the closet. Pajamas, "If you were to turn your childhood around, it would probably be a reflection of my childhood."
"Well……"
Lu Ning slowly took off her blood-stained clothes and listened to Yin Lian talk about her past.
"I said before that I started a company with my classmates. In fact, I became financially independent very early. As for my parents, my father comes from a family that values boys over girls. He was very dissatisfied with my birth, so he didn't give my mother a good look. My mother came out of society at an early age and had a bad temper. The two of them had quarreled frequently since I could remember. Then when I was...six or seven years old, my mother suddenly took the family bankbook. He left in the middle of the night, and my father was stunned."
Yin Lian seemed to want to make this matter like a joke, but Lu Ning couldn't laugh no matter what.
"My father went to the police station to report the crime, but he couldn't find him, so he had to report him missing. Later, when I grew up, my father told me that he would support me until I went to junior high school. He would never support me after compulsory education. He went to school. I didn’t want to care about him at all. I got admitted to a high school far away from home, got a part-time job, and got a scholarship. In short, it was similar to those inspirational stories you have read. Later, I struggled in society, but I didn’t grow crooked. "
"Sorry...Sister Lian..."
"I don't need to apologize. Lie down." Yin Lian pressed Lu Ning on the bed and covered her with a quilt. She stared into her eyes and said, "I know that no matter what others do, I will love myself, so I am not Unfortunately. And you - since you have been accompanied by happiness since birth, I don't want to see this happiness die midway."
"Ha...you really have no principles, Sister Lian..." Lu Ning smiled.
"Go to sleep, I still need your help with knowledge."
At this time, there was a sound of footsteps at the door, and Ling Yan came in carrying a kettle and said, "It took a while to boil the water. How is Lu Ning?"
"I put her to sleep just in case I had to watch her here, thank you very much."
"It's okay, do you need help?"
"Is it okay for you... to leave?"
Ling Yan raised his eyebrows: "It doesn't make sense for so many people to rely on me for protection. It's okay that something happened just yesterday and people are panicking. But you still can't adjust after one night?"
"Is the thing still in your hand?" Yin Lian suddenly asked.
Ling Yan nodded.
Lu Ning asked strangely: "What are you talking about?"
"Although the things we found yesterday cannot be used to fight ghosts, they have other uses... Ling Yan, you can show it to Lu Ning."
After listening to Yin Lian's words, Ling Yan took out a palm-sized glass bottle from his pocket, which looked like a drift bottle, with a piece of white paper inside.
"This... seems to be..."
"The message in the bottle, this thing, can read the last thoughts of the deceased. We tried it on the body of the first victim. Although it is very limited, it does have this function." Yin Lian explained.
"Have you tried it?"
Speaking of finding so many collectibles, except for the Hand of Decay which really came true yesterday, they really haven't really verified the true efficacy of other collectibles. This is also a hidden uneasiness in Lu Ning's heart. Now It's finally confirmed.
"Put it next to the corpse for ten minutes, and the last thoughts of the deceased will appear on the note in the bottle. However... after all, it was because he was killed by a ghost. The information we get is all about saving lives and not wanting to die. There is no reality. Purpose." Ling Yan was a little regretful, "As you can see, the note is not big, so it cannot display much content."
"When you get better, we will read the other dead people. Five of us should leave some useful information, right?"
Yin Lian touched Lu Ning's forehead a little and comforted her a few words. Then she stood up and picked up the hot water bottle to soak Lu Ning's clothes.
