I'm not a theatre god

Liu Qingyan froze on the spot.

"Cough cough cough... uh huh cough cough..."

The weak kerosene lamp flickered in the corridor, and a rough and painful cough came from behind the door next door. It was a man's voice, but the voice was different from that of a normal person, like the sound of some primitive beast. , even the floor beneath my feet trembled slightly.

Liu Qingyan frowned unconsciously. She glanced at the half-opened door, but did not step forward. Instead, she sighed softly, opened the door and returned to her room.

After all, it is a cheap hotel. The room is narrow and shabby. There is only a hard bed placed alone in the center. Next to it are some old-fashioned tables and cabinets. The sound insulation of the room is also extremely poor. Even if the door is closed, you can hear the next door. Coughing and heavy wheezing came.

Liu Qingyan glanced across the room and casually placed the kerosene lamp on the table, making the old table rattle.

She walked straight to the closed window, pulled out the latch, and pushed it outward. A light evening breeze swept into the room, blowing her black hair into the air...

Liu Qingyan stood behind the dim hotel window, facing the brightly lit theater building. The dim light gently touched her cheeks, like a reflection in a dream.

A burst of melodious drama floated out from the theater.

"...There is still no news about my son and daughter's investigation into the military. I was alone in the painting hall and pondered secretly,

I'm afraid that the traitors will come again and cause trouble and damage the honor of generations of my Yang family..."

Hearing this voice, Liu Qingyan was slightly startled. She didn't expect that Chen Ling could actually sing opera, and she could sing it so well... She had also heard others sing this song "Mu Guiying Takes Command" on weekdays, but Compared with Chen Ling, there is a huge difference.

The people watching outside the theater immediately fell silent and just sat on the roadside, listening to the melodious melody of the play. His voice was only heard but his person was not seen, but it did not affect the enthusiasm of everyone at all.

After Chen Ling sang, another actor's voice also sounded. Liu Qingyan felt that it sounded familiar. After a moment of recollection, she remembered the appearance of Li Qingshan whom she had seen in Liu Town.

Gradually, Liu Qingyan became intoxicated. She stood in front of the window, looking at the brightly lit theater with her eyes, wondering what she was thinking.

"Ahem!!!! Ahem! Ahem!!!! Ahem!!!!"

A rapid and rough cough came from the next door again, interrupting Liu Qingyan's immersion for the first time. She frowned and looked at the pale wall, her eyes full of displeasure.

It wasn't just her, the cough was so loud that even the passers-by downstairs of the hotel heard it. They unconsciously raised their heads and looked at the rows of small black windows upstairs in confusion.

Fortunately, the cough lasted for a few seconds and then stopped. Liu Qingyan finally heard the sounds in the theater clearly again... After taking a deep breath, she continued to look in the direction of the theater, as if she wanted to immerse herself in it again.

"It was not because I stood idle when the country was in trouble, but seeing the commander's seal brought back so many past feelings.

The generals of the Yang family sacrificed their lives and abandoned their families to secure the country. When they triumphantly return people and receive favors, I will add a new grave..."

"Ouch cough cough cough cough!!!!!"

Before Liu Qingyan could finish the entire sentence, the hysterical coughing sounded again, this time accompanied by the harsh sound of nails digging into the wood and some weird sound of banging heavy objects.

Boom--boom--boom--

The floor under Liu Qingyan's feet shook slightly, and the beds, cabinets, tables and chairs in the room all creaked, as if they were about to collapse in the next moment.

Her face instantly darkened, and her brows almost tightened into the character "Chuan". After a brief hesitation, she walked out of the room with a kerosene lamp in hand and entered the dim corridor.

Without the obstruction of the wall, the sounds in the corridor were obviously noisier. Various strange movements came from behind the half-open door next door, while the doors of other rooms were always closed, as if they were the only two residents here.

As soon as Liu Qingyan grabbed the door handle next door, the latter, like her previous door handle, automatically fell to the ground with a thud and broke into parts.

Seeing this scene, Liu Qingyan felt an ominous premonition in her heart.

A broken door handle can be attributed to old age and disrepair, but two door handles in a row broke at the touch of a touch, which is a bit weird... coupled with the inhuman coughing and wheezing coming from the room at this moment The sound made Liu Qingyan instantly alert!

Her fingers grasped the half-open door and slowly opened it. With the dim light of the kerosene lamp in her hand, she finally saw clearly the scene in the next room.

In the narrow and dark room, a figure in a red robe was kneeling on the ground. Under the red robe was a completely naked body. At this moment, it was completely stained red with blood, especially the lungs, which had been damaged by some kind of... Something opened a bloody opening!

At this moment, he was holding a sharp blade in one hand, cutting open the flesh of his left chest, and holding a bloody hammer in the other hand, which was pounding the pale ribs. As the last hammer fell, the second rib also fell. Stop at the sound of the voice!

But he seemed to be unaware of the pain, kneeling on the ground and grinning. Under the skin and broken bones of his left chest, a lung was exposed to the air.

"Cough cough cough cough cough cough!!!"

A violent cough was accompanied by a large mouthful of scarlet blood, which spattered all over the ground. He saw the flickering kerosene light from the corner of his eye, and slowly raised his head... A pair of eyes without the whites of the eyes were strange and eerie.

"Did you actually get hit..."

He saw Liu Qingyan standing outside the door, seemingly stunned, the smile on her lips became more and more ferocious,

"It's a pity... you're late... the suicide ritual is almost completed... the 'Sighing Wilderness' is about to come... everything here will be buried in the gray world!

The world will eventually return to its original state

After he finished speaking, he put one hand between the cracked ribs, grabbed the undulating lung lobe like a broken bellows, and tried to pull it out of the body!

But the next moment, an iron-like hand grabbed his arm.

He was stunned...

He tried to free his arm, but found that no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't move it at all!

He raised his head blankly and saw Liu Qingyan, who had been frightened by him outside the door just now, who had come to him at some point. There was no fear in her eyes from being frightened by this bloody scene, nor was there any fear in her eyes. Instead of screaming like other ordinary people, he just looked at himself quietly...

There was no fear in her eyes, only doubt.

Although the scene in front of him was extremely weird and bloody, compared to skinning Zongwen alive, it was not much different. Therefore, Liu Qingyan was not frightened, but she was just wondering where this madman came from.

"You...let me go!" the man roared angrily.

"Let you go?" Liu Qingyan looked into his eyes, her voice as soft as water, "But aren't you doing some kind of ritual? Are you going to bury everything here in the gray world? Then why should I let you go?" "
