It's better to fall in love

21. The whole story

He Wanluo, who had just escaped from the dark and dark warehouse, discovered that the final destination of the winding passage was actually a haunted house. Before he had time to ask like Uncle Ghost, he was slapped on the neck and passed out.

That palm was so powerful that when He Wanluo woke up, he felt that his neck was about to break.

It hurts to death, he now feels that it is much better to be stunned by the ecstasy incense than to be stunned by someone.If it's possible, how about releasing the ecstasy incense next time?

Bah, crow's mouth, there will never be a next time.

He is still in a certain room of this gloomy haunted house, and he is the only one in the room, his hands are tightly tied to the stool by rough nylon ropes, and his wrists are painfully strangled by the ropes.Because he had been tied up for a long time, the blood could not circulate, and his hands had started to become cold and numb.

The sound of the doorknob being turned came from outside the door, He Wanluo quickly closed his eyes and pretended not to wake up.

"Little He?"

The person who came in hurried towards He Wanluo and pushed him.

He Wanluo recognized that it was Chen Yiran's voice.He was startled, why is he here too, could it be that Uncle Ghost was arrested by him?Thinking of this, he didn't dare to make a sound, closed his eyes and continued to pretend to be dead.

"Xiao He, wake up." Chen Suiran seemed to be in a hurry, lowered his voice, shouted and pushed hard several times, seeing that He Wanluo didn't respond, he was so anxious that he couldn't help it, so he stretched out his hand and pinched He Wanluo's thigh hard.

This pinch was so strong that it almost tore through the pants.

He Wanluo was so painful that he almost cried out. He couldn't pretend to be asleep now, so he could only pretend that he just woke up, and asked innocently with tears in his eyes, "Brother Chen, what are you doing?"

"I'll save you."

"Save me?" He Wanluo didn't know what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd, but he only knew that if it wasn't for Chen Yiyi, he wouldn't be tied up in such a ghostly place.

Chen Suiran didn't seem to be lying, he really wanted to save him, so he took out a knife and cut his rope.He Wanluo, who had regained his freedom, quickly stretched his hands and feet. His wrist was deeply marked by the thick nylon rope, and a large piece was scratched where the rope rubbed against his flesh. It hurt when he moved it.

"Why did you lock me up?" He Wanluo was full of doubts now.Obviously, Chen casually locked him up, and now he pretends to save him. Could this person have a split personality?Which personality is appearing now?

"I locked you up to prevent him..." Chen Suiran consciously slipped his words, paused, and said, "It's also to protect you."

"How can I trust you?"

Having said twice in one night, He Wanluo is now full of guard against everyone, and judging from Chen Yiran's tone, he seems to be hiding something on purpose.

"Hurry up," Chen Wanluo urged He Wanluo, he kept raising his hand to look at his watch, as if he was very anxious, "Now you only have two choices, either trust me and go out with me, or stay here, you choose yourself."

He Wanluo hesitated for a moment, seeing Chen Suiran's eager expression, it didn't seem like he was telling a lie.This night is true or false, he doesn't know who can believe it, but now he just wants to go out and find Jing Ling.

After almost thinking about it for a few seconds, He Wanluo made up his mind to go with Chen casually. Compared with staying here and waiting to die, there is always hope for going out.At worst, wait for him to find a time to get rid of him and notify Jing Ling.Thinking of Jing Ling, He Wanluo felt inexplicably relieved, took out the pendant from his clothes, held it in his hand, and walked towards the hall with Chen Suiran.

"Wait, how many floors have we gone down?"

When He Wanluo saw the lotus painting hanging at the corner of the stairs for the third time, he finally couldn't help asking.He has been to this house before, but it is only a four-story building. Even if he was on the top floor at the beginning, they have already gone down several floors. Why does this staircase always end.

Chen Suiyi also noticed something was wrong, thick beads of sweat oozed from his forehead, and his face suddenly turned pale, "This is a ghost hitting a wall."

Of course He Wanluo knew it was a ghost hitting the wall.

Because the length and strength of the two legs of a person are different, the distance of the steps taken will also deviate. If you close your eyes, you will always go around in circles.The reason why people can walk in a straight line is because the human eyes are constantly correcting the direction, and the ghost hitting the wall is the illusion created by the ghost to confuse the eyes, thinking that they have walked a long way, but in fact they may have been spinning around in place.What's more frightening is that it may use hallucinations to lead you to dangerous places.For example, if you think you are walking on a flat road, in fact, one step ahead may be an abyss.

Thinking of this, he didn't dare to go forward rashly, for fear that if he took another step out, he would fall and his brains would splatter all over.

When he was at a loss, He Wanluo suddenly had an idea and had a bold idea in his heart.

"Close your eyes and walk by the banister."

Since what is in front of you is an illusion, the best way to crack it is not to look at it!Ghosts can blind people's eyes with illusions, but they have no way to change actual objects.

Chen casually nodded, thinking it was feasible, and closed his eyes together with He Wanluo, touching the handrail of the stairs all the way down.This trick seemed to be very effective. After walking like this for a while, the handrail came to the end, and when I opened my eyes, I was already in the hall.

Tonight is the fifteenth, the moon is round and big, the door of the hall is open, and the bright moonlight spreads all over the floor like broken silver.He Wanluo finally breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, his method worked. If he walks out of this door, he will be safe tonight.

The gate was close at hand, but only a dozen steps away, He Wanluo and Chen Suiran walked towards the gate together.

Just when the door handle was within reach, the door slammed shut.

The heavy banging sound of the door and the door frame hit He Wanluo's heart heavily, mercilessly obliterating the seed called hope.

"You came."

Chen Yiran's voice was calm and unwavering like an ancient well, as if he knew this kind of thing would happen a long time ago.

"Xiao Yi, do you know what you are doing?" A voice came from the stairs behind him.

Through the indistinct light, it can be vaguely discerned that the person standing on the stairs behind him is the assistant Xu Yingzhi who appeared at the banquet with Chen Suiyi that day.Xu Yingzhi seemed to be in his early twenties, while Chen Suiyi was over forty years old. At this time, he called Chen Suiyi "Xiaoyi", which made He Wanluo feel a little out of touch.

"I'm saving you." Chen casually looked at the figure on the stairs, his eyes softened.

"Do you think that if you hide him in the room where Zhong Kui sits, there's nothing I can do?"

There was anger on Xu Yingzhi's face. He didn't expect that the person who would destroy his plan would be the one whom he wholeheartedly supported and cared for.

"Stop killing people for me."

"I'm just a ghost floating in the world. I have nowhere to go. If you are gone, what's the point of my existence?"

"Excuse me, can I interject?" If the object of their discussion wasn't him, He Wanluo almost couldn't bear to interrupt the deep love between the two.He seemed to vaguely guess who this person was, but when he saw his appearance, he was not completely sure, "Who the hell are you?"

"You can continue to call me Uncle Ghost, or..." A man in a suit and leather shoes came out from the shadows, with a gloomy look of death in his eyes, "Xu Yingzhi."

"It really is you." He Wanluo was not surprised when he heard the affirmative answer to his guess, and asked calmly, "You were deliberately approaching me from the beginning?"

"Yes."

"why me?"

"You are very special." Anyway, it was still early, and Xu Ying was not in a hurry.After all, I just met him once, so I just asked him to be a ghost, "From the first time you came to this house to shoot a video, I found that you are different from other people, and your soul has a fragrance."

fragrance?Is he a taffy?He Wanluo expressed dissatisfaction with this adjective, as if he was a dish that was put on the table waiting to be tasted.

"Then you pretended to be pitiful before, and those memories, are they all lies?"

"Not all, I was indeed backlashed by the Wuxiang Umbrella and entangled by the resentful spirits in this room."

"So the female ghost that night... actually came to look for you?" He Wanluo suddenly realized, "Ah Jing, she was just killed by mistake?"

Xu Yingzhi acquiesced, then sneered again, "If it wasn't for your DV, she wouldn't be able to escape from this room and kill your girlfriend, and you have a share too."

He Wanluo was stunned. In fact, he didn't think about why that female ghost appeared in his house afterward, but he was just unwilling to accept the fact that he himself killed Ah Jing.He was flustered for a while, and suddenly realized that the other party was deliberately disturbing his mind, so he tried his best to suppress the surging guilt and self-blame, calmed down, and continued to ask, "Then why didn't you just do it at that time?"

"First, at that time I found that Jing Ling was always by your side. He was very powerful. I was suffering backlash and couldn't compete with him; second, I happened to use you to help me solve the grievances in this room and let me Wouldn’t it be the best of both worlds to be able to escape.”

"Then what's the relationship between you two?" He Wanluo is not a curious baby, he just wants to procrastinate a little longer, as long as Jing Ling finds him.

"Xiaoyi and I," said Chen Suixuan, his gloomy face finally became more popular, "We have been living together for more than 100 years."

100 years?Isn't Chen Yiran also a ghost?Thinking of this, He Wanluo unconsciously took two steps back, distanced himself from Chen Shuran.

"Yingzhi, don't continue." Chen Suiran suddenly said.

"I won't let you leave me."

Xu Yingzhi's eyes were full of stubbornness, he had to do this, even if Xiaoyi complained about it in the future, it didn't matter.He couldn't watch the lover he depended on grow weaker and weaker day by day, as long as he could find a way not to lose this person, let alone kill a few people, what if he killed everyone in the world.

Thinking of this, Xu Yingzhi stretched out her hand and snapped her fingers, and Chen Yiran fainted in response.Xu Yingzhi was very fast, one moment she was still on the stairs, and the next moment she appeared beside Chen Shuran, catching him before he fainted.

It's over.The only person who could save him was gone, and He Wanluo's heart kept sinking like an iron block thrown into a deep pool.

To make matters worse, since Chen Yiran fainted, he was paralyzed and unable to move.
