This sudden scream broke the dead silence of the villa.
Everyone immediately looked towards the second floor.
"what happens?"
"No...I don't know!"
"Go and see!"
Everyone quickly headed towards the second floor and came to the place where the sound originated.
It was the room where the paralyzed old man was.
Wang Yuning, who was carrying the food earlier, fell to the ground at this time, leaning against the corner, hugging her knees, trembling!
The hot meal... was spilled all over the floor.
"What happened?"
Ning Qiushui asked.
In front of everyone, Wang Yuning slowly stretched out a finger, pointed at the old man lying on the bed, and said in a trembling voice:
"She...she...just...spoke!"
Following the direction of her finger, everyone looked at the old man who was lying motionless on the bed and looking out the window in trance.
Liu Chengfeng sneered:
"What do you think is going on...Didn't you listen to the mistress? Her mother is just paralyzed."
"Paralysis is not a vegetative state, so why can't you speak?"
"I thought you were awesome?"
"An old man paralyzed in bed scared you like this?"
Liu Chengfeng finally seized the opportunity, and his mouth twitched like a machine gun.
But in the corner, Wang Yuning seemed to be frightened, trembling, but didn't reply.
Ning Qiushui glanced at the old man on the bed, and then motioned to Liu Chengfeng to help clear the ground, while he pulled Wang Yuning up from the ground.
"She spilled it herself, but she asked me to help collect it. What's the matter..."
Liu Chengfeng kept talking, but he was surprisingly obedient. He quickly went to the toilet to get a towel and started wiping the floor.
This scene feels a bit inconsistent.
Liu Chengfeng, who seemed very difficult to offend, was so obedient to Ning Qiushui.
But no one asked.
After cleaning up the room, Ning Qiushui came to the old man's bedside, looked at the old man's kind face carefully, covered her with the quilt, turned around and left the room with everyone else.
When we returned to the first floor, it was completely dark outside.
Pale lights illuminated the hall.
But for some reason, everyone always felt that they were still in darkness.
The silence was unsettling.
"Okay, Wang Yuning, you can say it now... what did the old man tell you just now?"
Ning Qiushui sat on the sofa opposite Wang Yuning and poured herself a cup of hot tea.
As soon as she mentioned what happened above, Wang Yuning's face turned pale again!
She clenched the hem of her clothes tightly with her fingertips.
"Just now... wasn't I feeding her just now?"
"She took a bite of beef tenderloin and just vomited it out!"
Liu Chengfeng glared:
"Mad, she vomited?"
"Is it difficult for me to cook?"
Ning Qiushui frowned.
"Liu Chengfeng, listen to her first."
Liu Chengfeng smashed his mouth and muttered a few words in a low voice, "No more."
There was a look of fear in Wang Yuning's eyes, and her expression was conflicting, as if she didn't want to recall what happened just now:
"...I thought it was too hot, so I tasted it myself, but the food was not hot, so I gave her a second bite, but she still spit it out..."
"And this time, after she finished vomiting, she actually turned her head, stared at me and said... said..."
She couldn't utter a complete sentence for a long time. Xue Guize frowned so hard that he could pinch mosquitoes and said anxiously:
"You should say what she said!"
Under Xue Guize's urging, Wang Yuning finally had the courage to grit her teeth and said:
"Her voice was very low, and I didn't hear it very clearly. It seemed like she was saying...meat doesn't...meat doesn't taste good!"
"Yes...she must have said that the meat is tasteless!"
As soon as these words came out, a terrible lightning flashed outside the window, followed by deafening thunder!
Everyone was startled by the thunder!
"Damn it, this thunder struck..."
Ning Qiushui looked at the dark sky outside, suddenly came to the window and opened it.
The cold wind came along with the rain and fog.
"It's raining... heavy rain, strong wind..."
He closed the window again, his expression becoming more serious.
"These have already begun to come true..."
"That letter...isn't it really a prank?"
Different from others, Ning Qiushui received a... mysterious letter before entering the bus.
He never told anyone else about this.
Just as everyone was whispering and discussing the tasteless meat, Ning Qiushui suddenly closed the window.
It was closed tightly, not letting in the slightest bit of wind.
"Okay, forget it if she doesn't eat. It's getting late, let's go to bed early..."
"Get up early tomorrow morning and cook some meat porridge for the old man."
"Have you chosen a room?"
The people who were discussing suddenly fell silent.
"We...really want each of us to sleep in a room?"
At this time, Ya Mo, who seldom spoke, spoke with a timid expression, as if she was frightened by what just happened.
Xue Guize said:
“We had a brief look at the room before. It was very big, with a double bed, and the room was very clean. It was just right for two people to sleep in one room.”
Yan Youping's eyes were still a little swollen. When he heard that they wanted to share a room, he said anxiously:
"But...but we have three girls!"
Xue Guize sighed:
"That room is not small, and you girls are relatively petite, so you can sleep even if you squeeze in."
The three girls looked at each other and said nothing.
No one likes sharing a bed with a stranger.
But they actually already know that this villa... is not safe.
Everyone always feels that there seems to be something in the darkness, staring at them...
After turning off the lights, they came to the second floor together.
After a brief discussion, Ning Qiushui and Liu Chengfeng entered the same room first.
The three girls are in the innermost corridor on the right side of the second floor, farthest from the elderly people they have to take care of.
The remaining two boys chose the room next to Ning Qiushui.
For some reason, Ning Qiushui seemed to have a magical power, and everyone felt safer after getting close to him.
The last girl to go to the room was Wang Yuning.
While she was still lost in thought about what happened during the day, everyone had already entered the room.
For a moment, she was the only one left in the corridor.
The light switch in the corridor was at the top of the stairs, and it was a single switch, but the room they chose was at the very back, with at least twenty meters in between.
If she turned off the lights, it meant she would have to walk in the dark for the twenty meters.
His eyes fell on the open blinds at the end of the corridor.
The trees outside are growing like devils, twisted and ferocious, accompanied by the cold wind, as if they are about to enter at any time and eat Wang Yuning!
She couldn't help but shiver and didn't dare to turn off the light. She quickly entered the innermost room and locked the door hard.
boom!
…
In the room, Ning Qiushui took off her shirt, revealing a body of muscles with sharp edges and explosive power.
Liu Chengfeng, who was brushing his teeth, glanced at him in surprise.
When Ning Qiu Shui put on his clothes, he couldn't tell that he was such a fierce man!
"Brother Ning... I didn't expect that you hid it quite deeply!"
"With this mermaid line and these small abs, if you go to a nightclub... shouldn't you be fought over by rich women?"
Liu Chengfeng chuckled and winked at Ning Qiushui.
Ning Qiushui rolled her eyes:
"So why do you keep following me?"
Hearing this, Liu Chengfeng spat out the toothpaste foam in his mouth, calmed down the expression on his face, and said seriously:
"...Brother, you are very attentive, but I can't say it yet. I will tell you after we leave the Blood Gate alive this time..."
Hearing Liu Chengfeng's answer, Ning Qiushui was startled for a moment, then smiled and said:
"It's quite mysterious."
Liu Chengfeng shook his head and changed the subject:
"By the way, little brother, do you think... there's something wrong with that old man?"
Ning Qiushui was silent for a moment.
"It's not just the old man, this family, and even the villa complex have problems!"
Liu Chengfeng was stunned:
"What's wrong with the villa complex?"
Ning Qiushui said:
“The hostess of the villa said that only her family lives in this area, but in fact, many of the villas I passed by had traces of human habitation in them, and they were left in the past month or two. Just the 8 houses I saw, That’s all true, not to mention there are many more that I haven’t seen…”
"This proves...that this area was inhabited not long ago."
Listening to Ning Qiushui's words, cold sweat gradually broke out on Liu Chengfeng's back.
If Ning Qiushui's observation is correct, then... where have these people gone?
Ning Qiushui walked to the window with a solemn expression, put her hands in her pockets, and continued:
"Furthermore, if you live alone, you generally won't buy such a large garden villa, so people who live in basically have family or friends. Even if they go out to work, there won't be no one at home..."
"But in fact, it seems that only...us is left in this villa area."
He pointed.
Following the direction he pointed, Liu Chengfeng suddenly saw that the dozen or so houses in front of their window... were all pitch black!
Unexpectedly... there is no light!
"this……"
"how so?!"
His face became extremely ugly.
Ning Qiushui said slowly:
"Something must have happened here."
"Something... pretty scary."
He carefully checked the window and made sure it was locked tightly, not letting in a single breath of wind. Then he closed the curtains and returned to bed.
There was no wind, and the two people lying on the bed smelled a... strange smell.
"What does it smell like?"
Liu Chengfeng asked.
The smell wasn't strong, but it lingered around for a long time, like... something was rotten and moldy.
The two remembered what Xue Guize had said before, and after searching for it, they finally located the source of the smell.
- on top of their heads.
The wooden ceiling there was sticky, as if some liquid was seeping through it.
These liquids are yellowish-brown in color and have a foul smell.
"Fuck..."
Liu Chengfeng felt nauseous and hurriedly pulled the bed away.
"What it is?"
Ning Qiushui stood below, squinting at the moisture on the ceiling, and then said after a long time:
"Big Beard, do you believe me?"
Liu Chengfeng didn't understand what Ning Qiushui meant, but he nodded anyway.
"letter."
Ning Qiushui said slowly:
"Tonight, don't fall asleep, don't turn on the lights, and ignore whatever you hear..."
Liu Chengfeng's body stiffened.
"Brother, you mean... something is going to happen tonight?"
Ning Qiushui was silent for a long time before finally nodding slightly.
He turned off the light, and the room immediately fell into a terrifying silence...
Liu Chengfeng was lying on the bed, feeling confused.
Although I tried my best not to fall asleep, as time passed, the sleepiness finally spread all over my body...
After an unknown amount of time, he was woken up by a strange sound.
The source of the sound is outside the door.
It was a sound... similar to the sound of two sharp metal objects rubbing against each other.
Stab——
Stab——
Listening to this voice that made people's hair stand on end, the first thing that came to Liu Chengfeng's mind... was knives and forks!
He cooks a lot and is all too familiar with the sounds made by kitchen utensils and cutlery!
Liu Chengfeng sat up suddenly and wanted to turn on the light, but Ning Qiushui's instructions suddenly echoed in his ears, and he lowered his raised hand again.
"Brother Ning, are you there?"
Liu Chengfeng lowered his voice and asked, and a 'shh' sound came from beside him.
"Don't make a sound."
Ning Qiushui's voice was also very low, with a hint of trembling.
Apparently, he was nervous too.
The door to their room was not completely closed, leaving a gap, and the light from the corridor outside penetrated through the gap under the door.
As the terrifying sound passed in front of their door, a strange black shadow also flashed past...
The terrible friction sound almost made Liu Chengfeng's heart jump out of his throat!
The thing outside the door... actually stopped at their door!
Liu Chengfeng clenched his fists and his breathing stopped!
What is that thing outside the door?
If you come in... what will happen?
At that moment, his mind went blank, as if he had lost the ability to think.
It seemed like a few minutes, and it seemed like only a moment passed. The terrifying black figure outside the door finally moved again, walking deeper into the corridor...
The harsh friction sound sounded again——
Stab——
Stab——
That feeling is like being an executioner, looking for a prisoner that he has delayed...
It went all the way deep, paused for a while at the second door, and then went to the innermost door of the corridor. After stopping outside the door for a while, it completely lost its movement...
Ning Qiushui suddenly sat up from the bed, tiptoed to the door, and put her ear against the crack in the door.
He listened for a long time.
There was no more sound coming from outside the door.
It was as if the black shadow disappeared suddenly.
After listening quietly for more than ten minutes, he confirmed that there was no sound outside, and then returned to bed.
"Brother, what is that thing outside?"
Liu Chengfeng asked in a low voice.
Ning Qiushui shook her head:
"I don't know, but it's definitely not human."
"It makes no sound at all when it walks."
Upon hearing this, cold sweat broke out on Liu Chengfeng's forehead.
No way……
In this villa...
Is there really something unclean?
