The crescent moon in the night sky disappeared without knowing when, leaving the night completely plunged into darkness.
Lao Xie faced the little boy in front of him with a hint of fear in his heart.
"Dad is sick, and mom goes out to find medicine? Why is it different from the version I know?"
"Your mother should have gone back. You can see her when you get home."
Old Xie told the little boy as calmly as possible. No matter whether the woman was the little boy's mother or not, Old Xie couldn't let the little boy stay here, because he always felt that if the little boy didn't leave, he would Terrible things will happen.
The little boy did not listen to Old Xie's words, but stood there and looked up at Old Xie, and then repeated the same sentence in his mouth.
"Have you met my mother?"
"Bang——"
The door was slammed shut, and Lao Xie leaned his head on the door, breathing heavily, like a fish that was about to suffocate.
"Why would a little boy put so much pressure on me?"
"Dong dong dong——"
"Grandpa, have you seen my mother?"
"I've never seen it!" Old Xie Tou finally couldn't hold on any longer. He held the old yellow robe tightly with both hands and pressed the door hard against the back of his head, making a muffled sound.
The little boy was still standing at the door and kept asking, "Have you seen my mother?"
The sound of "dong dong dong" stopped suddenly, as if it had never happened before.
Lao Xie noticed that the sound was gone, and it seemed a little unreal.
"The little boy is gone?"
Lao Xie secretly opened the door a crack, but there was nothing in the dark corridor.
"Looks like it's really gone."
Lao Xietou immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
"Grandpa, are you looking for me?"
The little boy's childish voice sounded from behind the door, frightening Lao Xie's head and staggering, and he fell directly to the ground.
"You...why haven't you left yet?"
When Lao Xie saw the little boy appear again, he became speechless.
"I'm looking for my mother."
Anyone who looked at the little boy's pale cheeks would feel distressed and stop to say a few words of comfort, but Old Xie didn't think so. He knew that the boy in front of him was weird.
Whose little boy stayed up most of the night and ran out to look for his mother.
"Have you met my mother?"
The nightmarish voice sounded again.
Old Xie Tou felt that the air around him instantly became cold, and the little boy in front of him also became very strange.
"Mom is missing..."
The little boy looked lost, as if the mother in his mouth had not been found in the end.
"Mom is gone, dad is dead."
The little boy kept mumbling incomprehensible words.
At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps deep in the corridor, and then a woman slowly appeared at the end of the corridor.
"Your mother is here."
Lao Xie covered his eyes with his head, not daring to look far away.
The little boy also saw the woman at the end. Just for a moment, his originally calm expression suddenly became nervous. He did not dare to look into the distance, but backed away bit by bit.
Lao Xie noticed the little boy's movements and was filled with doubts.
"She's not my mother, not my mother."
The little boy's voice was panicked. He kept shaking his head, then turned and ran towards the other end of the corridor.
Before Lao Xie Tou could react, he saw a dark figure throwing Lao Xie Tou to the ground. He raised a kitchen knife high and was about to chop off Lao Xie Tou's head.
He raised the knife and dropped it. Fortunately, Lao Xie reacted in time and turned his head to avoid the knife. The cold kitchen knife chopped into his ear. Just now, if he had reacted just a little slower, the kitchen knife would have been embedded in his own. On the head.
As they got closer, Lao Xie could clearly see the other person's appearance. It was the woman who had just asked him to borrow antipyretic medicine.
"Didn't this woman bring fever-reducing medicine to her son? Why did she come here and try to chop me with a kitchen knife?"
"You saw it, you saw my child, what are you going to do to him, are you going to hurt him? I won't let you hurt him."
The crazy woman was riding on Lao Xie's head. The kitchen knife just missed the target. Now she raised the kitchen knife again, like the god of death from hell, staring straight at the other party.
"I won't let you take him away. He's mine, forever."
Lao Xie didn't know where he got the strength. At the moment when he swung the kitchen knife down, he suddenly exerted force, and the woman's kitchen knife hit the wrong side again. Lao Xie didn't waste any time. When he saw the woman making another mistake, he pushed hard with both hands. He pushed the woman away from him.
Without the restraint of a woman, Lao Xie stood up and ran in the opposite direction where the little boy left.
The woman's goal is most likely to be directed at the little boy. If Lao Xietou follows the little boy again at this time, he will be the one who will be implicated in the end.
When the crazy woman saw Old Xie running away in another direction, she didn't chase him. Instead, she chased the little boy in the direction he left just as Old Xie wanted to do.
"Child, where have you been? Don't you want your mother anymore?"
The woman's plaintive voice echoed in the empty corridor.
The little boy didn't know where he had run at this time. During the time when the woman and Lao Xie were entangled, he had long since disappeared at the end of the corridor.
The "safe passage" sign at the end glowed dark green, like the entrance to hell, constantly exuding chills and resentment.
Lao Xie ran for a long time. He did not run upstairs, but chose to go downstairs. He originally lived on the third floor, but found that there were a lot of stairs today. If it were normal, at this speed, he would have been there long ago. I have left the unit door, but now the old man is still wandering in the stairs.
"Ghost hits the wall?"
Lao Xie was sweating all over his head and he didn't know what to do.
"Ghost hits the wall..."
Old Xie Tou tried hard to recall the methods of cracking ghost walls in the books he had read.
"stand still?"
Lao Xie shook his head. With his method of deceiving people, it was okay if he didn't encounter any problems, but now there was really a madman chasing him.
Lao Xie thought for a long time but couldn't come up with any good solution, so he had to lean on the armrest to rest for a while. According to his inference, the woman appeared just for the little boy, so now the woman will not catch up with him for a while. Came here.
"Fortunately, I was careful and ran in the opposite direction of the little boy, otherwise I would have been caught by that madman now."
When Lao Xie thought about the way the bright kitchen knife hit his ear just now, his legs couldn't stop shaking.
"I have lived a long life, and this is the first time I have encountered something like this."
Lao Xie was probably tired from running just now, so he leaned on the armrest and panted for a long time before taking a deep breath.
At this time, the originally dark corridor suddenly lit up. Lao Xie was startled by the sudden light. He looked up and his clothes were instantly soaked in cold sweat.
A pair of eyes was looking at him through the gap in the stairs.
