Suddenly, I stepped on a few crunchy things under my feet, and they broke with a little force.
Mo Qin turned the light of the small flashlight to look at his feet. The light of the flashlight also flashed in response. Just when it illuminated something white, the light of the flashlight went out completely.
I only saw a few white, somewhat curved, bone-like things.
It was small and brittle. If it was really a human bone, it could only be the bone of a child.
There was darkness all around, and the smell of decay and earthy smell became stronger and stronger, followed by the sound of footsteps approaching from far away.
The steps were light and slow, and there was more than one person.
At this time, the flashlight light became better again. Mo Qin stepped away and looked at the thing. It was indeed a child's bone. It was a real bone and not a prop.
He had long felt that something was wrong with this place, and Mo Qin was not too scared when he saw this thing. He shined his flashlight in the direction of the sound. The weak light could not reach the end of the corridor, and he could only vaguely see a few figures.
They moved stiffly and slowly, walking towards this side bit by bit.
There seemed to be wind blowing around, the rag strips on the ceiling shook, and black shadows flashed past.
Mo Qin held a flashlight in one hand and took a few steps back. He said they were staff, but the smell on their bodies was really unpleasant.
Mo Qin hesitated for a while between escaping and confronting him, but finally decided not to be reckless.
If you hurt someone, you have to pay for it.
Not a good deal.
There is an elevator in this building, and a sign is erected next to the elevator. Only when the light shines on it will it reflect the green light.
Just when Mo Qin walked to the elevator, the number on the elevator suddenly lit up. It was a red '1' with an upward arrow next to it.
It seemed like someone had taken the elevator up from the first floor.
Mo Qin was on the third floor. The building had seven floors in total.
The safe passage at the end of the corridor was locked at some point, and the doors to the rooms on both sides of the corridor were also hung with old and rusty locks.
Mo Qin tried to push the door, and a layer of dust fell from the lock. The wooden door panel shook and creaked, but there was no sign of opening.
The wooden door should be very durable...
No, when did the door here become made of wood?
Squeak——
There was the sound of a door opening on the right.
Just when Mo Qin turned to look, the door in front of her disappeared and turned into a dark void.
A hand stretched out from inside, grabbed Mo Qin's arm, and pulled her in.
The person who pulled her was an acquaintance, Xie Chen. He was still wearing casual clothes, but this time he didn't wear a mask or hat.
If she hadn't met him under such circumstances, Mo Qin would have thought that he was also here to have fun.
The room the two of them were in was still part of the building.
A long and thick candle was lit in the center of the room. There were doors on three walls of the small room, and a talisman was posted on each door. The only wall without a door was a window.
Nothing can be seen outside the window, like a night without moon and stars.
But in fact it's only around two o'clock in the afternoon.
It wasn't dark at all.
Under the dim light, Xie Chen's originally handsome face looked a little gloomy. In such an environment, all the nerves in his body were tense.
In contrast, Mo Qin was relatively relaxed. His tone was like meeting an acquaintance somewhere in the city, "Are you here too?"
Xie Chen cleared his throat, and his deep voice contained a hint of guilt that only he himself understood:
"I just happened to come...to do a mission."
A few days ago, he heard Lin Sen say in the dormitory that Mo Qin was coming to this place. He had some impression of this name and had seen it in the task list.
The task seemed quite simple from the description, but the bid was too low and no one took it after hanging up for several days, so naturally he didn't intend to take it.
But he didn't know what to think, so he ran to take over the task again.
He arrived in the morning, and after discovering something unusual here, he was quickly targeted by something here and trapped him in the building.
He originally thought he was just a small character who secretly ate some of people's energy, so he didn't bring much with him. Who would have expected that he would end up here.
Just the few talismans posted in this room already exceed the value of the task itself.
Only those liver emperors who are committed to leveling up will take on a job like this.
This wave of blood loss.
Mo Qin was not surprised, "Are you alone?"
This sentence is a casual question.
Xie Chen was a little embarrassed. His current situation was indeed not good. He originally came to catch the monster, but he was caught by the monster.
"It did come in a bit of a rush," he explained.
"I only realized the seriousness of the matter when I came in. I have already sent a message for help and help will arrive before dark."
Now just wait here.
Xie Chen's eyes fell on Mo Qin, "They usually don't kill guests. How did you get targeted by them?"
He deliberately left her alone and sealed off the whole floor to trap people. Obviously, he didn't intend to let her go.
According to experience, they will not let people die here directly, but take the body, wait for the person to go out, and die in an accident a few days later.
This way, no one will be suspicious of coming here.
At least not directly.
Mo Qin recalled, "Ah, it was probably noon. I must have declined their gift."
"Gift?"
Xie Chen has never been to the restaurant here, so naturally he doesn't know about it.
"Yeah, a red drink."
Mo Qin said it in an understatement, focusing more on the talismans posted on the wall.
Except for what she saw in that book, this was the second time she came into contact with the talisman of this world. She was not embarrassed to observe it carefully last time.
"Did you draw these symbols?"
Xie Chen denied, "These are all bought from that website."
He can also draw some, but the quality of the paintings is not as good as the ones sold, so he usually buys the ones he uses.
This is why tasks with low bids are not accepted.
It’s not even enough to pay for a mission.
Mo Qin praised, "The painting is pretty good."
Seeing that she was very interested in these things, Xie Chen asked, "How did you read that book?"
He didn't even ask if he had learned it yet. He probably thought that the threshold for self-learning was still very high.
As soon as he said this, Mo Qin came over immediately and said, "I drew some myself and just kept them on me. You can see how I drew them."
She took out a piece of yellow paper from her bag.
The red characters on yellow paper are smooth, light and powerful, and appear in one go. The key is that the energy contained in them is strong and domineering. You don't need to look closely to know that it is a high-quality talisman.
Xie Chen turned over these talismans one by one and was shocked:
"This, these were all painted by you??"
I thought I was a rookie, but I didn't expect to be a big shot.
