Everyone…… Including the ghost fell into silence.
What shocked Ren Hui was, the hand Gu Wu Ji was holding didn't continue to move, was it appeased by Gu Wu Ji's action? Can ghosts be comforted by humans? She became absentminded and doubted the world.
Gu Wu Ji still holding the hand, spontaneously took the microphone from her hand and interviewed the ghost by saying: “This xiansheng*, I'm a reporter wanting to report the facts of this injustice, this time's task is to investigate the facts regarding the family's death in this villa. Can you provide any clues? I will burn paper offerings for you when I get back.”
*mister, sir, teacher, etc
Ren Hui: “??” You can't just randomly catch a ghost like this to ask ah! Moreover, that's her microphone.
The next moment, she saw that the originally unmoving ghost with twisted limbs that has already swollen and rotten since long ago rushed towards Gu Wu Ji like being enraged, revealing a ghastly and frightening white bone face very close at hand!
Ren Hui standing behind Gu Wu Ji screamed in fright. Only Gu Wu Ji was able to look at the ghost calmly, and simultaneously found that this ghost's eyes also had obvious traces of being dug.
Could this be related to the killer who caused the murder?
Without waiting for Gu Wu Ji to think, the ghost directly pa.s.sed through his body, a fit of chill ran from the top of his head to his soles!
In this very short time, several scenes suddenly appeared in his mind, the scene that came was from a first person's perspective. Seemingly trying his best to hide, while faintly feeling that the shadows light seemed off.
The miserable shouts and weeping sounds of men and women continued without respite, even the air was filled with a pungent b.l.o.o.d.y smell.
One can make out how frightened the involved party was from the faint and trembling breath.
The fear had obviously reached the extremes, but he couldn't see any traces of the killer and could only hear the surrounding footsteps, the footsteps seemed very far, but came close in an instant.
“Finally the last, that's great.” A youth's clear and melodious voice spoke with unspeakable pleasure.
The involved person didn't dare to breath again, holding his nose and mouth while quietly moving backwards, but the frantic heartbeat sounded very loud at this moment and he could only rigidly cover his heart, praying that he won't be found.
The footsteps seemed to go away little by little, but soon, some ice-cold liquid trickled from above, dripping on his shoulder.
The trembling view s.h.i.+fted to look above, and saw a face with two hollow and b.l.o.o.d.y eye sockets, the blood dripped from the hollow sockets.
In the next moment, nothing could be seen and everything became blood red.
--He saw me.
No, I……It was me that saw him.
……
When Gu Wu Ji woke again, he found himself lying on the living room's sofa, while the rest stood at the side.
“You finally woke up.” Ren Hui breathed a sigh of relief, apparently in the process of having just been in trouble with Gu Wu Ji, with Gu Wu Ji protecting her from the ghost, this act of not letting her suffer a bit of harm greatly increased her favorable impression.
“Have I been unconscious for long?” Gu Wu Ji's mind was still somewhat muddled.
"He*, I told you not to mess with ghosts, and now this happened.” Luo Kong sneered at the side, “If it weren't for good luck, perhaps you would already have died!”
*laugh, sneer (not the heng sound)
“You also mustn't be too excited.” Fang Jian converges his eye's slight surprise, thinking that this guy had a great destiny, unexpectedly, nothing great happened after being tossed* by a ghost, “Gu xiansheng pa.s.sed out in less than 10 minutes, just a while ago as we stayed here, Both of your figures suddenly disappeared, greatly frightening us.”
*confront, encounter
“It really scared me!” Ren Hui talking about it immediately said everything she saw, “That corridor must have a problem!”
“What you said isn't wrong, I've seen it.” Fang Jian nodded with a serious expression, “When you disappeared, we also found a few things here, that corridor actually leads to the bas.e.m.e.nt……”
He said while taking out the house's layout, at the corridor's corner there is a hidden door leading to the villa's bas.e.m.e.nt.
No doubt, people only needed a bit of experience to know that a bas.e.m.e.nt in this situation is nothing good, one will never be able to leave after heading there.
Everyone's head was covered with cold sweats, no wonder something like this happened in the corridor Gu Wu Ji just inspected, that place was certainly very dangerous.
Fang Jian was very satisfied seeing everyone's expressions. How can this people know, that in reality the bas.e.m.e.nt was actually a relatively safe area? After all, to avoid the most terrifying existence, even the ghosts subconsciously avoids that spot, the farther the better.
He now only needs to follow his plan, for everything to go smoothly.
Just at this time, “I found this.” the young girl's voice of the couple softly and stammeringly sounded as she cautiously placed the alb.u.m she held on the table.
After opening the photo alb.u.m, reflecting in their eyes were a great number of neatly placed photos, the only place that made them uncomfortable was that everyone in the picture had their eyes crossed out--The handwriting was fl.u.s.tered and slightly trembled, just like doing things in the midst of panic.
Other than that, it can be seen that most of the figures in the picture were the villa's owner and beside him was a 16 or 17 year old youth.
The youth's appearance also couldn't be clearly seen, but from a few facial features that can be seen it can be concluded that he should be extremely beautiful. Only, no one had the mood to care about this kind of things at this time.
Looking back, in addition to these crossed out parts, there were also a lot of densely written words, “What to do?” “He saw me!” “It's already obvious……” “Where can I hide……”
Everyone held their breath, but in an instant, a pair of eyes emerged from the picture in the eyes of everyone.
That seemed to be too late to be crossed out, the picture was of a middle aged man who looked very majestic, without a doubt was the original owner of this house.
It was clearly just a picture, but the eyes gave everyone a mind numbing and horrifying sensation, a burst of slight chill swept everyone's back, even making goose-b.u.mps. In the next moment, tears of blood flowed from the pair of eyes.
The girl's face greatly changed, clenching her teeth as she closed the alb.u.m.
Almost in an instant, a hand suddenly reached out from the originally closed photo alb.u.m and immediately caught the girl's body.
Everyone didn't have time to do anything, when her body suddenly exploded and a large amount of fresh blood splashed, apart from the blood everything disappeared……no. It was absorbed by the alb.u.m.
Everyone quickly retreated a few steps, looking at the alb.u.m that fell down in the pool of blood with lingering fear, not expecting that a living person would suddenly die like this before them.
Just at this time, the man of the remaining couple couldn't accept this and suddenly rushed forward, grabbing the alb.u.m and opening it while madly flipping the pages.
“You, calm down a bit……” Ren Hui became somewhat sympathetic, wanting to come forward to give comfort, but Gu Wu Ji immediately pulled her to a stop.
“Something's very wrong.” Gu Wu Ji said, no one could ignore when a living person suddenly disappears before them, but compared to being sentimental, reason can prevent any more unnecessary deaths.
Just as his voice fell, in an instant, a number of rotten hands emerged from the pool of blood, immediately pulling the man in, miserable screams instantly rang out.
These sounds were just like waking this originally quiet villa, as a b.l.o.o.d.y smell spreads in all corners, not only from the lovers fresh blood, but also the wall and the floor, as blood started spreading everywhere.
“Let's go!”
Under Fang Jian's guidance, the rest without any thought rushed to the second floor, not finding any important clues downstairs, when getting there they must find information to survive.
After everyone went upstairs, everyone followed Fang Jian, quickly running to the second floor's corridor then everything seemed to become momentarily quiet.
With the cellphone's light, everyone saw the walls filled with blood splashes and numerous messy scrawls like what appeared in the alb.u.m.
Some can only be barely recognized, what, he saw, why, run away, no…… These words, other than that, there were also some cluttered patterns that made people feel uncomfortable.
"This were actually what the people who came here left behind, or was perhaps left behind……after the killing started.” Ren Hui couldn't help but be disheartened.
“Should be.” Fang Jian said, “after this area was sealed, there were also some curious people who came exploring here in the middle of the night……some would go missing, only a few people with mental disorders were found outside the villa.”
Gu Wu Ji actually recalled those strange scenes he recently saw in his mind, and immediately said what he saw.
“These ghosts don't have eyes, moreover the eyes in the photo alb.u.m were also blotted out……a moment ago the person closest to the photo alb.u.m was killed, plus this numerous messy words.” Gu Wu Ji thought while saying, “These things must certainly be related to the clues of our survival's task.”
Although Gu Wu Ji always believes that there were no differences between ghosts and humans, but just like humans there were also deviants and killers, that subconsciously made him uncomfortable and made him not want to approach.
But speaking of this, even if his instincts towards ghosts were always very precise, but it became completely useless towards people…… Otherwise Gu Wu Ji wouldn't have fallen to the point of having to kill and stew a chicken himself.
However, in this situation, obviously this journey isn't as easy as buying soy sauce* and then slipping away, from the start Gu Wu Ji had always been paying close attention to the surroundings.
*not any of his business
Fang Jian having heard what was said, subconsciously raised his gla.s.ses, then nodded while saying: “What you said makes sense, I think, maybe these ghosts lacking eyes are unable to see our group's existence. That unusual photo a moment ago gave the ghosts eyes, that lead to their death and awakened the villa's ghosts. Next, if we have other ways to cover our breath, they might not notice us.”
Luo Kong immediately looked at him with wors.h.i.+ping eyes, feeling that Fang Jian's a.n.a.lysis was very reasonable.
“But all this is for trial, we'll first look in the study--”
At this time, noises sounded from the corridor's corner, with footsteps that were neither too slow or fast, they obviously didn't know what existence was unhurriedly approaching.
Everyone suddenly remembered the female ghost looking down from the second floor and became frightened with cold sweats.
Fang Jian suddenly opened the door at the side and everyone quickly went in.
“So troublesome, with our current strength encountering ghosts can only lead to death, we must find a place to hide, in this grave situation, everyone quickly find a place.” Fang Jian said while opening a closet at the side, pulling Gu Wu Ji to let him stand inside, his face nervously looked at him, “Don't make a single sound!”
This room was originally only a guest room, there were not many things that could hide a person, the cabinet wasn't big and the bed was only a single bed. Ren Hui could only hide with trepidation under the bed, even if this was usually the place where one dies first in a horror film, but there was no other way this time.
Luo Kong slightly hesitated, but still went in to squeeze in with Gu Wu Ji, looking at Fang Jian, “That, Fang-ge where are you going to hide?”
Fang Jian's face suddenly filled with a kind of determination, “I'm going to lead that guy away, after all everyone hiding together is too dangerous……I'm also experienced, and may still have a chance to survive.”
If it was in the past someone would surely persuade him, but in this situation where everyone was in danger, the rest of the two were unable to say anything, being able to save their own lives were already not bad.
However, Gu Wu Ji felling very moved by Fang Jian, bravely stepped forward, “Fang-ge you're really very kind…… I can't let you go alone, bring me with you! Two people may have more chances of escaping.”
Fang Jian's smiling expression solidified: “??”
This guy was either a fool or pretentious, he wanted to seize the opportunity to kill Gu Wu Ji and Gu Wu Ji still moved his hands and feet, bringing Gu Wu Ji with him will only result to him being killed, okay!
Fang Jian reluctantly smiled, “You mustn't mix with this kind of thing, this is actually very dangerous……it's better for you to stay here!”
Having said so, Fang Jian like fearing Gu Wu Ji would insist on going with him, immediately pushed Gu Wu Ji back in the closet and then quickly ran after closing the door.
Luo Kong in the cabinet was touched, Fang Jian dage* was unwilling to let others sacrifice themselves, can even be described as great, then to Gu Wu Ji seriously said: “You must remember Fang Jian dage's kindness.”
