"If you don't come back, I might not be well." Old Xie Tou seemed to be worried that he would be discovered, and spoke quickly, "I can confirm that something has entered the house, and the smell of formalin is worse than the previous two. It’s getting darker even more.”
"Well, don't worry, I'll be there right away."
Chu Ping hung up the phone, picked up his backpack, and put his cell phone, stick and reddish-brown diary in it. When he went out, he also stuffed the flashlight placed at the door into it.
When Chu Ping left the community, he raised his hand and stopped a taxi.
"No. 328 Wufu Road."
Chu Ping got in the car and gave his address.
"Hey, little brother, what a coincidence, it's you again."
Chu Ping looked up and saw that it was the elder brother who had taken him to No. 44 Xingfu Road.
When Chu Ping saw the eldest brother, his first reaction was to get out of the car. Unfortunately, the eldest brother didn't give him a chance and rushed out as soon as he stepped on the accelerator.
"Brother, are you going to live broadcast again?"
Chu Ping twitched the corner of his mouth and did not respond to the other party.
"Hey, little brother, you may be a little late this time."
Chu Ping was stunned and looked at the driver through the rearview mirror.
"What's the meaning?"
The taxi driver picked up the mobile phone beside him and waved it in front of Chu Ping's eyes.
"Your colleague has already started live broadcasting."
Chu Ping stared at the cell phone in the driver's hand with wide eyes.
On the large-screen mobile phone, a familiar face was leaning in front of the screen, muttering something unknown.
"Old Xie Tou!" Chu Ping began to be confused about this old man's routine.
Lao Xie Tou, who had just asked Chu Ping to come quickly on his phone, now appeared in the live broadcast room.
"He...what is he doing?"
"He's live broadcasting," the taxi driver looked at Chu Ping with a "I understand you" look, "You are all in the same group, you still don't know what he is doing? I understand, your theme today is to rescue your companions right."
"God damn rescued my comrades."
Chu Ping was speechless for a while. From the first time he met the driver brother, he felt that this person should be different from ordinary people. He did not expect that his brain circuit would be so strange.
"We don't know each other."
The driver looked stunned.
"It turns out we are colleagues, I understand this, colleagues are enemies."
If the driver hadn't been driving too fast, Chu Ping would have wanted to jump out of the car.
Only the devil knows what this big brother is thinking.
"What is the content of his live broadcast?"
"There's a supernatural live broadcast," the driver brother pointed at the screen, "It's this old man. Last time he started a forum, and then the big brother on the list used a big sword. I guess he wants to fool another big brother this time. Now he is looking for ghosts at home. .”
"Ghost hunting?"
"Fifteen minutes ago, I was waiting for work at the intersection. I opened the live streaming app out of boredom. Unexpectedly, I saw him as soon as I opened it. I went there late at the time, and I heard from other water friends that he was already on the live streaming app. It's been half an hour.
"When I entered his live broadcast room, he was hiding in a corner and shaking, his face was pale, and he was talking nonsense about "he's here, he's here". It really looked like he had seen a ghost.
"Water friends also said that he had been in this state for almost ten minutes. At that time, he only said that his home smelled of formalin. Some water friends even made noises, saying that the physical examination teacher from the Provincial Medical College came to see him. .”
The driver's brother spoke with gusto, but Chu Ping, who was sitting in the back, looked ugly.
He clearly saw a man's head slowly approaching him behind Lao Xie's head.
At this time, the comments in the live broadcast room also exploded.
"Oh no, there's a human head there. Run, there's really a ghost!"
"This prop is quite realistic. A lot of effort must have been put into it."
"This head looks like one of our teachers, hahaha."
"The teacher upstairs, the teacher you are talking about is the general physical education teacher, right?"
"Eh-I was so scared that I slipped away."
There were a lot of people talking about the barrage, but no one took it seriously.
"It's this human head." The driver brother also saw the man's head that appeared in Lao Xie's live broadcast room. "I saw it just now. Not to mention that it looked really similar. When it first came out, it scared me. I jumped and almost dropped my phone to the ground.”
"Did you come out just now?"
"No. That head seems to be playing hide-and-seek with the old man. Every time it waits for the old man to hide before it appears. Tsk, tsk, it scares me every time I see it." The driver glanced at Chu Ping through the rearview mirror, " Little brother, you all have scripts, don’t tell me, it’s really real, especially that head, it’s like it’s real.”
Chu Ping twitched the corner of his mouth.
"But it's not the same as real, he is real."
Chu Ping was worried about Lao Xie Tou's safety, so he didn't talk to the driver and kept watching Lao Xie Tou's live broadcast room.
"I don't know what Lao Xie Tou is thinking. It's already this time and he still doesn't forget to start a live broadcast. It's really costing money rather than life."
Ten minutes later, the taxi stopped at the intersection of Wufu Road. The houses here are old and the streets are very narrow, so the taxi can't get in.
Chu Ping paid the fare and got out of the car.
The driver brother also said to Chu Ping: "Brother, which live broadcast room are you from? I'll go over and see you."
"I guess you'll be able to see me soon."
Chu Ping carried his backpack and walked towards No. 328.
······
Lao Xie was hiding in a dark corner, holding his cell phone, watching the barrage, and looking deeper into the darkness from time to time. He breathed a sigh of relief when he found that the man's head did not appear again.
"Why is the popularity so low today?"
The barrage was flowing quickly, and all of them were voices questioning Lao Xie Tou.
Some water friends are still encouraging Lao Xie to fight head-on with that head.
God knows how Lao Xie Tou felt when he saw this barrage.
"Mom, it's really hard to earn a big sword."
Lao Xie looked disappointed.
The water friends in the live broadcast room thought that what he experienced was all fake, but Old Xie Tou knew that the human head was indeed a real human head, and he had brought it out of his dream.
"When I jumped off the building, how could I catch him trying to come in through the window? Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many things."
Lao Xie's nose twitched, and a pungent smell penetrated his nostrils.
"It's catching up."
Lao Xie turned around and said hello to the water friends in the live broadcast room, then disappeared into the darkness. Then a man's head floated in front of the mobile phone screen, causing another heated discussion among the water friends in the live broadcast room.
"I'll rub it, it's so exciting!"
"I have a bold idea."
"I've been single for a long time, how come my head looks so pretty?"
"The ones upstairs are a little too strong."
······
Chu Ping stood in front of door No. 0312, took out his mobile phone and dialed Lao Xie's number.
"beep--"
A harsh busy tone rang in the corridor.
"How not to answer the phone?"
Chu Ping knocked on the door and when no one answered, he took out a piece of wire from his pocket.
"It's really difficult to walk outside without the skills of sliding doors and picking locks."
The wire was inserted into the keyhole, and Chu Ping gently twisted it a few times. The door lock made a "click" sound, and the door opened in response.
