After only a brief hesitation, Mei Wen came to Liu Chengfeng and smiled at Chai Shan:
"Don't peek next time."
She smiled weirdly.
It was a smile that made people shudder.
Perhaps he was frightened, or perhaps he was angry because of the false accusations. Chai Shan suddenly pushed Liu Chengfeng's hand away and cursed:
"CNM, I said it, I'm not watching!"
"You can't understand people, can you?"
"You have such a slim figure, and you take off all your clothes and stand in front of me, I don't care to look at you!"
"And you...just wait for me!"
After scolding Mei Wen a few times, Chai Shan said harsh words to several others and opened the door of Room 4 with a glare. However, when he saw Lu Nanshang in Room 4, He immediately closed the door again, his movements very smooth.
Then, he opened the door of Room 5 and walked in.
boom!
He closed the door tightly, but Mei Wen still stood at the door of Room 3, staring straight at it. After a long time, she turned around stiffly and returned to her room.
Seeing her like this, Liu Chengfeng looked at Shan Hong with some gloating.
"Do you still dare to sleep in room three tonight?"
Shan Hong trembled.
"I'll go sleep in room two..."
After this happened, everyone felt that something was not good, so they stopped running around in the afternoon.
Dinner time came as promised. Seeing Mei Wen's appearance, people who had never eaten meat porridge did not dare to have the slightest intention to try meat porridge. They ate some vegetarian porridge in a hurry and returned to their room.
At Shen Weiwei's request, Shan Hong chose to live in Room 1 with her.
Since Shen Weiwei didn't care, he was happy to have a companion.
What's more, this companion is also a beautiful woman.
Night falls quickly and everything around is completely silent.
The cool mist from the mountains once again spread into the temple, bringing with it coldness and humidity.
The young monk showed up as promised with six candles.
He knocked on the doors of six houses in turn. Regardless of whether there were guests inside, he would put a candle on the table next to the window sill.
In room No. 6, Ning Qiushui looked at the red candle on the table, her expression moved slightly, she turned to Liu Chengfeng and asked:
"Beard, do you have any matches on you?"
Liu Chengfeng nodded.
As soon as he said yes, he saw Ning Qiushui blowing out the candles on the table.
"Give me the matches."
call out!
Lying on the bed, Liu Chengfeng tossed it casually, and a box of matches fell into Ning Qiushui's hands.
Stab——
As the match struck and emitted a bright light, the originally extinguished red candle was ignited.
After Ning Qiushui confirmed that there was no problem, she blew out the candle again.
"No, little brother, what are you doing?"
Liu Chengfeng was completely confused by Ning Qiushui's small combo.
"I'm just making sure the match can light the candle."
"Why?"
"Because we can't keep this candle burning tonight."
Ning Qiushui's next words almost made Liu Chengfeng jump up on the bed.
"This candle is about a quarter shorter than the red candle last night."
"Holy shit... it's really fake..."
He hurriedly got out of bed, came to the window, and stared at Ning Qiushui's red candle.
"It's true, the candle is a little short."
Ning Qiushui said:
"Believe me, my eyes are rulers."
"If it's only a quarter shorter, it's not really a big problem, but if the candle gets shorter in the remaining two nights, we'll be in big trouble."
Liu Chengfeng understood what Ning Qiushui meant.
"Brother, do you want to save this candle for tomorrow or the day after tomorrow?"
Ning Qiushui nodded.
"I'll go to room two first and take away the candle."
"When the time comes, we'll each have one."
Liu Chengfeng:
"let's go together."
"No, you stay and watch the room."
"That's okay, then, little brother, please go and come back quickly."
It was probably around eight o'clock in the evening. It was still early. The little monk had just walked, so the possibility of danger was low.
Ning Qiushui went straight to Room 2, pushed open the door, took away the red candle inside, and returned to Room 6.
"all the best."
Ning Qiushui said.
Then he blew out the red candle in his hand.
Now, they have two candles.
"Then...are we going to sleep tonight?"
Ning Qiushui glanced at the time.
"sleep."
"We will light the candles at twelve o'clock and then blow them out at six o'clock in the morning."
The bearded man nodded.
"good."
At the same time, Chai Shan in Room 5 also discovered the problem with the candle.
"...Is it my imagination? Why does this candle feel shorter than yesterday's?"
He picked up the candle and looked at it carefully, and it didn't take long for his eyes to become more certain.
"It's definitely shorter."
"In that case, the candle won't burn until tomorrow morning's safe time."
"I have to go to Room 2 to take a look. The people in Rooms 3 and 4 have become abnormal because of eating meat porridge. Those two rooms must not be entered."
"The woman in Room 1 is very beautiful, and the man named Shan Hong may live with her. In this case, there will be a room available in Rooms 1 and 2, and I can go and touch it. Try your luck..."
Thinking of this, Chai Shan immediately opened the door.
Instead of taking the candle from the room, he hid it under a table in the room.
The light outside is very dark. If he is holding a candle and wandering outside, people in the room will easily spot him, and it will be easy for the candle to be extinguished if he runs.
According to his experience, before 12 o'clock, the possibility of encountering evil spirits outside is very small.
And what he was going to do wouldn't take too long.
After coming out of Room 5, Chai Shan went first to Room 6 where Ning Qiushui was.
There was resentment in his eyes.
What happened during the day is still vivid in my mind.
But when he came to the door of Room 6, he discovered a very strange thing - there was no candlelight in this room at all.
He was originally thinking about how to extinguish the candles in the room for them, but before he could do it, the room was already dark.
Could it be that those two people hid the candle?
Or did they all move to Room 1?
Chai Shan had doubts in his heart. After hesitating for a moment, he still stretched out his finger and poked the window paper of Room 6.
It was indeed dark inside and almost nothing could be seen.
Chai Shan was alert in his heart, and he immediately left the window, and then walked left towards Room No. 2.
However, when he came to Room 2, he found that Room 2 was also pitch black without any lights.
Chai Shan's eyes narrowed.
Something's wrong!
Something is wrong!
He knew that the little monk's behavior would not change easily, so he would put a candle in every room every night.
However, the candles in rooms two and six are now gone.
The CPU given to him is indeed dry-burned.
He set his sights on room number one.
There were candles flickering there.
There is also a small hole in the window paper that he poked with a small bamboo tube yesterday.
Chai Shan put his eyes on the small hole and looked inside Room No. 1.
The candlelight has been moved to the bedside. It seems that after the first night's experience, they are wary of each other. It is impossible to deal with them in the same way again.
But there were only two people and one candle in this room.
Where did the remaining two people and the two candlelights go?
Did they leave their room with a candle and go live somewhere else?
Thinking of this, Chai Shan looked strange.
Can anyone really be that stupid?
Just when he was confused, a dark wind blew from the end of the corridor.
Chai Shan shivered, feeling chilled all over his body.
After being out for a long time, he didn't get what he wanted, and the uneasy feeling in his heart became heavier and heavier.
The fog in the temple became thicker again.
Chai Shan felt the danger approaching, so he no longer hesitated, turned around and walked towards room No. 5.
But when he passed by Room 3, he hesitated.
Chai Shan hesitated for a while, then came to the window, stretched out his finger to gently poke the window paper, and then looked into the room through the small hole.
On the table next to the window, a red candle burned quietly.
But no matter how Chai Shan adjusted the angle, he never saw the woman named Mei Wen living in this room.
"Why is she missing too?"
Chai Shan's mind was in a state of confusion.
After standing there and hesitating for a while, Chai Shan saw that the thick fog around him was spreading towards this side. Chai Shan's heart skipped a beat, and he gritted his teeth and pushed open the door of Room 3!
The horrific thing that he imagined did not happen. The woman named Mei Wen was neither hiding behind the door nor lying on the ceiling.
This room is indeed empty, no one is there
Chai Shan was so happy that he took away the red candle on the table and hurried back to Room 5.
Chai Shan, who was overjoyed, did not notice that when he turned around, there were two shadows swaying with the candlelight on the wall of the room...
Another shadow with disheveled hair was attached to his back, closely connected to him.
After running back to his room, Chai Shan let out a long breath.
He looked at the two candles on the table with a satisfied smile on his lips.
With these two, he was sure to get through tonight.
On the other hand, if others don’t have enough candles to light up until the fog subsides tomorrow morning, then something is very likely to happen!
The more people died, the happier he was.
As long as everyone else is dead, he's safe!
In order to prevent others from coming to his room to steal candles, and to prevent the ghosts outside the door from breaking into the door, he locked the door directly and then lay comfortably on the bed...
"I wonder who else will die tonight?"
"Don't blame me. I did drink the meat porridge, but I just didn't eat the meat in it!"
"The little monk has reminded you clearly. If you still go to eat, if something happens, you can only blame your own stupidity!"
The corners of Chai Shan's mouth raised, and just like that, under the light of a bright candle, he fell into a deep sleep...
…
midnight.
Chai Shan had a very confusing nightmare.
This nightmare is very strange, but also very real.
He dreamed that the woman named Mei Wen brought a bowl of hot meat porridge to him and walked towards him step by step.
"Drink porridge, why don't you drink porridge?"
"Isn't this your favorite meat porridge?"
"Drink quickly...drink quickly!"
Of course he didn't dare to drink this bowl of meat porridge, but he couldn't move at all and could only watch Mei Wen walk in front of him.
As the face got closer and closer, he discovered that there were countless dense cracks on Mei Wen's face!
Thick blood seeped out from those cracks, and soon the skin filled with cracks fell to the ground piece by piece like stones. Under the human skin soaked in blood, there was an old face!
That's... the face of the abbot of Dengying Temple!
It was full of wrinkles, very ferocious, and its pale eyes were full of madness!
"Drink quickly, drink quickly, drink up this porridge, and I will become a Buddha!!"
"..."
Suddenly, I woke up from the dream.
Chai Shan screamed and sat up from the bed suddenly!
His whole body was soaked in cold sweat and he was breathing heavily.
"It turned out to be a dream, it scared me to death..."
He patted his chest. Just as his expression improved, he discovered something terrible and immediately became extremely stiff!
When Chai Shan came back to his senses, he finally found that the room he was in was terribly dark. The red candle that was supposed to be burning went out for some reason...
Upon discovering this, Chai Shan's mind immediately went blank.
"Shouldn't there be a red candle burning in my room?"
"Why did it suddenly go out?"
He sat on the bed and did not dare to move. The darkness consumed all his courage.
He looked at the extinguished red candle beside him, and then at the door and window.
"The windows are closed tightly, as is the door. The wind from outside can't blow in at all..."
"Could it be..."
Suddenly, a thought flashed through my mind like lightning.
A thought that made his skin stand on end.
Candles... don't go out on their own.
Unless someone blows it out!
I don't have the habit of sleepwalking. Is there another person in the room?
He swallowed unconsciously and soon discovered another strange thing.
That's because his bed was cold.
It was the kind of cold that was completely abnormal.
Logically speaking, since he had been sleeping in bed for such a long time, the place where he slept should at least be warm.
His hands unconsciously pressed against his mattress.
The touch feels indescribably smooth.
That's not a normal touch.
Chai Shan knew what it was.
He was so familiar.
His eyes moved down and landed on the bed where he had been lying, his eyes filled with fear.
Where was he lying on the mattress before?
He was clearly lying on a piece of human skin that had been stripped off!
The human skin was stretched into a rectangular shape, the scalp was missing, and the rest covered the entire bed. From the facial features, it was vaguely identifiable that this was Mei Wen's human skin!
It stared straight at Chai Shan with its eyeless sockets, and suddenly grinned, revealing a weird smile.
"Don't you like to peek at me? Now, I'll show you enough..."
