Mysterious country

Looking through the gap, one could see that in a room full of dim shadows, Wang Meimei was leaning against a corner of the wall with her eyes open, her body motionless.

When Leng Yue pushed the room door completely open and walked in with Chu Mengqi, she found that Wang Meimei had lost her life.

There were no self-inflicted wounds on her body, and it looked like she was scared to death.

"Senior brother, please don't be angry, I'm afraid we won't be able to save them.

After all, even I couldn't control myself just now, let alone these ordinary people. "

Although Leng Yue was very reluctant, he also knew that Chu Mengqi was right. After all, curses were different from illusions in the sense that they did not rely on firm disbelief in the heart to avoid any harm.

"Let's go down."

Leng Yue did not stay any longer, and then she and Chu Mengqi returned to the lobby on the first floor where Xia Qi and the others were.

"How's it going? Are you okay?"

Seeing them coming down, Xia Qi immediately asked.

"Nothing."

After Chu Mengqi finished speaking symbolically, she lay next to Xia Qi's ear and whispered to him:

"This curse is different from the phantom mirror. It doesn't just rely on disbelief. If you see a ghost coming out, run away if you can. If you can't escape, use defensive charms to resist it.

I just experienced it once and almost scratched my back. "

"So that's it. I saw your underwear."

After hearing this, Xia Qi showed a stunned expression and deliberately reminded Chu Mengqi.

"ah!"

After listening to Xia Qi's words, Chu Mengqi realized that she had taken off the clothes on her back, and she could see some skin and the pink underwear belt.

"Let's put on my coat first. I'm also getting hot."

Xia Qi took off her suit jacket and gave it to Chu Mengqi. Chu Mengqi hesitated for a moment, then took it and put it on. As a result, it looked like she was wearing a dress, almost covering her whole body. Inside, it looks very petite.

Wu Zihao and others looked at Xia Qi and Chu Mengqi, whispering face to face for a while, and ambiguously giving clothes to each other for a while. They all mistakenly thought that the two were lovers.

So, I heard Wu Zihao deliberately show his kindness and said:

"Your girlfriend is very cute."

"Girlfriend?" Xia Qi was stunned when he heard this, then glanced at Chu Mengqi with a smirk, and said generously:

"To be precise, she should be a child bride. She was abducted by human traffickers when she was very young and sold to me as a cow or horse."

"Uh..." Wu Zihao was a little confused after hearing this and didn't know what to say.

"You stinking scoundrel, stop talking nonsense, or I'll tear your mouth apart!" Chu Mengqi heard what Xia Qi said, and immediately yelled at him in shame and anger.

"It's just a joke. Don't make it so popular. Make it look like the real thing."

Xia Xia Qi signaled Chu Mengqi to calm down. He knew in his heart that Wu Zihao would suddenly say this. He just wanted to ask about the situation upstairs, but couldn't find an entry point for the moment, so he deliberately said this.

"The woman upstairs is dead."

Xia Xia Qi didn't hide anything and said it directly.

"died……"

After Wu Zihao and others heard this, the suppressed fear in their hearts increased sharply.

"What are the chances we'll survive?"

Xu Haiming asked Xia Qi after a moment of desperate silence.

"Fifty percent."

Although he felt that people like Xu Haiming had no more than a 10% chance of surviving, Xia Qi did not say it out loud. He wanted to give Xu Haiming and the others hope to continue.

The people here may have made mistakes before and are not really good people, but there are no bad people who do all kinds of evil, so they all deserve the right to live.

As outsiders, as strangers, as people accustomed to seeing death, they have reason to give up, but they themselves have no reason to give up.

"Half the probability is not bad, higher than I thought."

When Xu Haiming heard what Xia Qi said, he couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief. At this time, he encouraged everyone who had their heads drooped and said:

"Everyone, listen to me. I know that no one wants to encounter this kind of thing, and no one wants to die here. But now that we have encountered it, we can't turn back, so we can only strengthen ourselves and fight for it. A glimmer of hope comes.

This friend also said just now that the more fearful we are, the higher the possibility of a curse occurring.

Wang Meimei is an example, so we have to be normal. At the very least, we must buy ourselves enough time to delay the approaching death. "

Xu Haiming's words made Xia Qi and others a little surprised. Although he had thought that Xu Haiming was different from others before, he was a very calm and thoughtful person, but now, he felt that Xu Haiming was so calm. Somewhat perverted.

"what is your job?"

Xia Qi asked curiously.

"I am a psychiatrist." After Xu Haiming finished speaking, a wry smile appeared on his face.

"No wonder you can control your emotions so well."

After Xia Qi heard about Xu Haiming's profession, he was not surprised. After all, these people who play psychology are essentially humans who are closer to machines.

The reason why they are said to be closer to machines is because they can ensure that they are in an absolutely sane state most of the time.

Although Wu Zihao and others could not do what Xu Haiming did, they could still try their best to suppress the spread of fear.

Everyone began to chat with each other and try to forget the current situation. Xia Qi then introduced himself, which was out of appreciation for Xu Haiming.

"Mr. Xia, let me ask you a question. If you often face this kind of thing, do you still regard yourself as a human being? What I mean is that if you see too many dead people, you will inevitably become numb and lose compassion for the weak. , just like humans eating other animals, it is caused by inertia and the gap in absolute power."

After Xu Haiming chatted with Xia Qi for a few words, he suddenly asked a strange question.

"It depends on who we are competing with. Compared with ordinary people, we are strong and will hardly face any threats, but if we are compared with ghosts, we are still the weak side.

As for whether you still regard yourself as a human being, my true feeling in my heart is that sometimes I do, and sometimes I don’t.

The root of the conflict is that I think I am, but some of my behaviors are not like it. But in my heart, I actually want to be an ordinary person, live an ordinary life, and enjoy an ordinary life.

But obviously, it's hard for me to do that now. "

Xu Haiming really listened to Xia Qi's answer carefully. After listening, he said:

"Mr. Xia, as a psychiatrist, I can tell you responsibly that you have a mental illness."

"Ah?" Xia Qi didn't expect Xu Haiming to say this suddenly, and couldn't help but feel a little confused, but soon, Xu Haiming said again:

"But there is still salvation."

When Chu Mengqi heard that these two people were actually getting into a relationship, she couldn't help but complain:

"He is not mentally ill, he is clearly a psychopath, and he is already terminally ill and cannot be saved."

After saying that, she glanced at Leng Yue, who was sitting quietly aside, and gestured:

"And this one too."
