I eat candy in the horror world

Chapter 38 Unswerving Love 14

The thick clouds in the sky were stained with dark colors, and the sky began to darken.

On both sides of the spacious main street, shop owners are closing their doors and preparing for the night.Lan Kang and Zhang Qiulin led the group to rush all the way, and finally entered the small courtyard of the Han family just before nightfall.

They made rice paper in the experience hall for a day, and they didn't eat for a day. They were so hungry that their chests stuck to their backs.As soon as he entered the door, Lan Kang threw himself in front of Song Xi in the yard, snatched the orange from his hand and devoured it hungrily.

Li Zhong clapped his hands, handed the nuts in his hand to Zhang Qiulin, and looked behind the two of them.

Those who went out in good spirits in the early morning all looked sluggish at this time, seeing food was like a wolf seeing meat.Fortunately, tonight's meals are relatively rich and plentiful, with a large table full of vegetables and meat.

Looking at the bright red braised pork in the big basin, Li Zhong stretched out his chopsticks and picked up a piece.

Noticing that everyone around him was looking at him, he opened his mouth and stuffed it into his mouth, chewing contentedly: "Don't worry, eat it, how can there be such a fat pork belly on a human body."

After three days of observation, everyone has discovered that the people in the town have raised enough poultry to eat, and there is no need to injure the same kind to obtain meat.

Now that Li Zhong is taking the lead, everyone can eat with confidence.

Probably because they were too hungry, they ate quickly and hurriedly, but Song Xi and Jiang Su took their time, and their eating movements were carved out of the same mold, with the same height.

After the painter's revenge in the morning and the townspeople's door-to-door provocation in the afternoon, the rest of the time was too peaceful.

Song Xi was a little nervous and picked up all the rice in the bowl again, and there was indeed nothing colored at the bottom of the bowl.The townspeople used the tourists to delay time, and it was impossible to let them go so lightly.

He bumped Li Zhong next to him with his elbow, "Are you sure your bowls are all right?"

"Is there any problem?" Li Zhongdao, "Didn't everyone check the dishes, stools, tables and chairs before eating?"

Lan Kang, who was on Li Zhong's right, persuaded: "Don't be suspicious, have a good meal, and you don't know when the next meal will be."

Song Xi nodded, and put a big chicken leg into Jiang Su's bowl.

Jiang Su imitated the example and gave the young man a piece of juicy pork ribs.

Most of the time, Jiang Su feels like a mature adult. He is silent, quiet, observant, and maintains a high level of calm at all times. Song Xi has never seen him lose his composure under any circumstances.

But in some scenes that are easy to ignore, he is like a child who knows nothing about the world.His dealings with people and his understanding of secular ethics are all ignorant.

Jiang Su's existence is a contradictory body, calm and childish are his characteristics.

The dinner was enjoyable, and even Song Xi relaxed at the end of the meal.Everyone swept away the tension and fatigue of the day, chatted about relaxation while holding their chubby bellies, trying to pull themselves away from the current dangerous environment in order to seek a momentary tranquility.

The guide's mother was not busy cleaning up the dishes as usual today, but stood quietly aside with a smile on her lips.

Seeing that everyone was almost done chatting, she raised her hand to cover her mouth and yawned, "It's past nine o'clock, clean up the dishes yourself, I'm going to bed."

Everyone didn't think too much about it. After watching the guide mother leave, they chatted for a while before getting up to clean up.

The kitchen was clean and tidy, apparently the guide mother had cleaned it up after cooking.Song Xi opened the cabinet with one hand, put the leftovers in, and when he turned to leave, he saw a little red powder in the trash can.

He squatted down and picked up the vegetable leaves that covered it, and there was a lot of mixed ore powder hidden underneath.

The powder was mixed in color, Song Xi picked up a little and rubbed it with his fingertips, the familiar touch made him alarm, he ran out quickly, and shouted at Hong Na who had piled up empty plates and bowls: "Don't touch those tableware! "

The young man's voice made everyone break into a cold sweat. Lan Kang hesitated and said, "Is there something wrong with the bowls and chopsticks?"

"I found natural pigment powder in the kitchen trash can." Song Xi spread his five fingers to let everyone see what was stained on his fingertips.

Li Zhong stared, turned around and supported the tree trunk, put his fingers into his mouth, trying to get the contents out of his stomach by picking and vomiting.Some of the others ran directly to the toilet, some jumped and jumped on the spot, and even some frightened people ran to the kitchen and poured a large bowl of dish soap into their mouths.

The scene was a bit chaotic, but Hong Na was still calm. She clearly remembered the position of each tableware and plate, and reset them one by one in an orderly manner.

Song Xi went over and turned the bowls and plates upside down, only to see that the bottom of each bowl was painted with a small colored dot.

Before eating, they only looked at the bottom of the inner bowl, and did not expect that the guide mother would mark the outer bottom of the bowl.

When everyone came, Song Xi had already returned to his previous seat, with Jiang Su on the left and Li Zhong on the right.

Just now, I plucked my throat a little too much, and I didn't spit out anything, but the nausea was very strong.Li Zhong clutched his chest and shuffled to Song Xi's right. He cast a look at Lan Kang, and Lan Kang quickly sat down.

Zhang Qiulin sat directly opposite Song Xi, he looked at the bottom of the blue bowl in front of him, and heaved a sigh of relief.

Everyone re-seated one by one until there was only one empty seat left.The girl with twin ponytails trembled all over, her fingertips sank into her palms, her face was pale, she swayed weakly twice, and Hong Na stretched out her hand to grab her.

Hong Na raised her chin in the direction of the empty seat, "Sit down."

"No, I won't sit down!" The twin tails broke away from Hong Na's hand excitedly, staring at the bowl on the table in horror.In the bottom of the round bowl, there is a bright red dot drawn.

Whispering around, Twintails felt that each of them was gloating, she picked up the bowl and threw it to the ground, "If the bowl is broken, nothing will happen again."

"Don't lie to yourself." A man said, "You've already used the bowl, even throwing it into the river is useless." He stood up, stretched himself, and greeted the others, "It's nothing to do with us. Let's all go to sleep."

"Don't go, don't go!" The pair of ponytails opened their arms to block their way, and they were dragged away by Hong Na.

Hong Na took people aside and scolded: "Do you think that if you block them, they will face it with you? They won't care about your life or death. On the contrary, it's a good thing for them if you die, which means They escaped another day."

The indifference and selfishness of human nature is chilling. Song Xi, Li Zhong and others did not leave. They concealed the information they got today and did not share it as generously as usual.

The pair of ponytails sat down dejectedly, and the broken pieces of the bottom of the bowl painted with red dots were lying on the ground, as if mocking her innocence.At this moment, she suddenly calmed down, but she was still a little unwilling.

Death is just a momentary thing, but those things that have not been done, those who have not loved, will eventually become eternal regrets.

She is not reconciled, very unwilling.

Shuangmawei sniffed, and suddenly burst into tears, "Sister Hong Na, I don't want to die, I really don't want to die, I have to go back to see my grandma, my parents, I haven't been in a relationship yet, I just Going to college..."

Feeling compassionate, Hong Na gently pressed the girl's head into her arms, then looked sideways at Song Xi.

"Is it in time?" Hong Na asked.

Song Xi shook his head, he couldn't guarantee that he could find the exit before the girl died.

Hong Na took a deep breath, her expression was gentle, but she said seriously: "Crying won't solve the problem. If you don't want to die, you can find an exit with us. During this period, you must stay with us, and we will Do everything I can to save you."

Twin Ponytails was still terrified, nodded obediently, and followed Hong Na back to the room sobbing.

When Lan Kang came back, Li Zhong didn't have to sleep with Song Xi anymore. For convenience, Zhang Qiulin also moved next door to Song Xi.The rest of the people naturally have their own small groups, and everyone wants to leave for the same purpose, but the mutual wariness is getting worse as the seven-day deadline approaches.

Zhang Qiulin: "Before moving here, my former roommate also moved next door to live with two new people."

Song Xi drew a simple picture on the table with tea, "So there are still four rooms for people to live in. Brother Zhong and the newcomer's room each have three people, and the remaining rooms for me and sister Hong Na are two people, a total of ten people."

Lan Kang sneered: "People are not in harmony, I think these ten will soon become duck eggs."

Li Zhong glared at him, sighed and said, "Everyone has made rice paper today, and you can move around freely tomorrow. I will discuss it with them when I get up tomorrow. If they are willing to find clues and share them, Everything is easy to talk about. If they don’t want to, we won’t tell them when we find the exit.”

Everyone has no objection. There is no free lunch in the world. Of course, there is still a worry. People are scattered, it is difficult to lead the team, and it is very troublesome to act.

After sending Li Zhong and the others away, Song Xi took Jiang Su to bed. He didn't turn off the lights tonight, and buried his face in the quilt.After lying like this for a while, Jiang Su lifted the quilt and got in again.

The child's body was like a stove that was constantly dissipating heat. Song Xi unceremoniously moved forward and hugged him vaguely, "Susu, I have a hunch that we will be going out soon."

Jiang Su opened his eyes, his eyes were clear, "Really?"

Song Xi hummed lightly, and the artist's canvases all over the room were the source of the premonition.The solar energy is hidden in the locked room of the hotel, and it must be hidden in other places.

That place may be far away, but it can also be very close.

Song Xi patted Jiang Su's back lightly, and said softly, "Go to sleep, and don't open your eyes if you hear anything at night."

Jiang Su arched into the young man's arms, and pressed his forehead against the other's chest: "Good night, brother."

Song Xi put the man to sleep, but he himself remained awake.After the room was quiet, he lay flat on his back and looked up at the ceiling.

There were two obvious lines of sight on his face from the direction of the door. He did not avoid or pretend not to know, but turned over and lay on his side after a while, with his face facing the door.

The masks that belonged to the two men hung over the door, and there was a whiteness below the hollow.Gradually, thin red blood streaks appeared in the eyes hidden under the mask.

Song Xi blinked at the mask, then quietly took out the knife in his trousers and stuffed it under the pillow.

He yawned and fell into a deep sleep exhausted.Darkness invaded his vision and mind, and at the same time, the room fell into a dead atmosphere.

As before, once the people in the house fall asleep, things hidden in the dark will creep out quietly.

Song Xi felt that the sight that was far away from the door was getting closer, and it stuck to the back of his head, and then one pair of hands lifted his quilt, and wrapped it coldly against him.

Those hands were like paintbrushes, gently tracing on his face, and the click of the tongue sounded, tapping rhythmically on his heart.

Soon, those hands became dissatisfied, their fingers bent, and the tips of their nails scraped his face vigorously, as if they wanted to tear off that face.Just as he was about to do it, the hand moved to his neck.

The other party seemed to be very nostalgic for the arteries flowing with warm blood, moving his fingertips back and forth, refusing to leave.Not only that, after stroking it several times in a row, the thing pinched the underlying artery with its nails.

Before he could open his eyes, Song Xi's hand had already touched the knife under the pillow, and he quickly turned over and stabbed back.

A red shadow flashed back towards the door, and with a bang, the mask fell to the ground.

Song Xi looked at the saber, and the silver knife reflected his face.Carefully moving away the sleeping child next to him, he got out of bed and walked to the door, looking down at the ground.

The eyes hidden under the mask seemed to blink for a moment, and then disappeared in an instant.

He pursed his lips, and poked the general knife straight down, the sharp blade piercing the hole in the eye.Following the young man's movements, the two holes on the mask were cut to pieces by the blade.

All of this not only did not deepen the weirdness of the mask, but made it look a little more funny.

Song Xi went to take off Jiang Su's mask again, and smashed its "eyes" in the same way, leaving two irregular broken holes.

In the second half of the night, everything was peaceful and peaceful, and the feeling of being watched without a shadow disappeared.

The tattered masks were hung back on the pegs, and without their eyes they were like surveillance cameras that had been cut off and could no longer function.

The weather on the second day was very bad, the already gray sky became even more gloomy, and the heavy dark clouds seemed to collapse at any moment, making people depressed.

Song Xi tidied up himself and Jiang Su, opened the door and went out.

Hong Na from the room on the right also came out, nodded to him, turned her head to the room and said, "Don't smudge, come out quickly, Miss Bai may be sleeping late in the early morning, so I don't have time to catch you."

Song Xi: "..." The sassy sister Hong Na also has moments of humor.

The two ponytails poked their heads out tremblingly, looked to the left and right, saw that everything was safe, then pulled Hong Na's sleeves and came out.

Hong Na was going to annoy her to death, last night she was just showing kindness and let the little girl sleep with her, but this morning she didn't know how to stay away from her, instead she became an inseparable brown candy.

She shook her grasped arm and asked Song Xi, "Where's Li Zhong?"

"Here." Li Zhong poked his head out from the diagonally opposite room, and he walked in front of several people, "I have communicated with them, and they agreed to share with us after finding the clues."

Hong Na looked around the courtyard, the small courtyard was too quiet this morning, and the guide mother did not prepare breakfast for everyone.

Seeing her doubts, Li Zhong said: "The guide's mother has gone out to buy vegetables. The guide's grandfather and father are both in the room. As for the guide, I don't know."

"I guess I went to the ancestral hall." Song Xi glanced at the ponytails after finishing speaking.

Several people realized that the guide should have gone to the ancestral hall early in the morning to set up a new memorial tablet.

The eye sockets of the twintails immediately turned red, and the body trembled uncontrollably.Hong Na glared irritably at the girl who was trying to grab her sleeve, scolded "I'm so useless", frowned and said, "Then act early, don't waste time."

Li Zhong briefly talked about the assignment of tasks, they planned to focus on investigating the painter and the gallery next door.

Song Xi stayed up late last night to catch ghosts and didn't wake up at all. After listening to it, he rubbed his eyes, "You guys go first, I'll go out later."

Li Zhong looked at the young man meaningfully for two seconds, "Then you should pay attention to safety."

Song Xi returned to the room and lay paralyzed on the bed for a while. After everyone left, he turned over and sat up, looked up at the ceiling, and finally set his gaze on the top of the wall where the bed was attached.

When he first arrived, he found that the walls of that place were as clean as new, which contrasted greatly with the oldness of other parts.

The guide came in when I was planning to check last time. Today it was quiet outside, so I just need to keep an eye on the guide's parents.

To be on the safe side, he asked Jiang Su to let the air out at the door.

The bed in the room was not high enough, Song Xi went to the yard to move a stool to put it on the bed, he turned around and asked the door, "Susu, is anyone here?"

Jiang Su crossed his arms with both hands, turned his body towards the room, but said solemnly: "No."

Song Xi: "...brother, look outside, don't look at me."

Jiang Su: "I can see outside."

Song Xi suspected that the kid might have eyes on the back of his head, and then ordered him to pay attention to the outside situation before stepping on the stool.

The bed is a bit soft, the stool is wobbly, and it is difficult to balance.Song Xi staggered for a while, and finally he was able to stand up slowly.

The ceiling of the self-built house is not very high, and the junction of the ceiling and the wall can be touched by straightening the arm a little.That place feels smooth to the touch, without the roughness of other places, as if it had been painted on purpose.

Song Xi turned his head and found that Jiang Su was looking at him again.

He cleared his throat, gestured to turn around to the child, and then took out the knife, scraping the old wall below with very light movements.

The putty with ashes and spots was scraped into powder by the saber, and it was scattered everywhere.Song Xi covered his nose and coughed twice, feeling that the putty on this wall was unusually thick.He frowned and stared at the wall, which was otherwise normal, before moving to another place.

After a while, the piece closest to the ceiling was potholed and nothing was found.

Song Xi froze on the stool, did he think too much?He narrowed his eyes slightly, and smiled at the child flatteringly, "Susu, help me choose a place."

Jiang Su glanced roughly and pointed casually.Song Xi followed the trend and looked over, it was in the middle of the wall.

He got off the stool suspiciously, rubbed the spot with the back of the knife a few times, revealing the white wall putty inside, which was no different from other places.

Turning his head and looking at Jiang Su, Song Xi pursed his lips and added some strength to his hands.

The rustling sound of the blade rubbing against the putty on the wall became rough, turning into a sound similar to that of plastic cloth rubbing against each other.Song Xi was taken aback for a moment, he was no longer so cautious, and his movements were much wider.

After a few minutes, the piece of wall skin was scraped clean, and the plastic film hidden underneath was exposed to the air.

Under normal circumstances, the wall putty must cover the cement to avoid cracking and falling off.The practice of sandwiching plastic sheets between the putty and cement in Han's small courtyard is really weird.

He took a closer look and saw that there was a wall of cement paste under the plastic film, and there was a faint color on the inside of the milky white film.It should be because it has been too long, and the color has turned slightly black, not the dust from the cement, but more like blood that has dried up after being rubbed on.

Thinking that this is the wall shared with the Bai Family Art Gallery, Song Xi's heartbeat quickened, and he turned to Jiang Su and said, "Susu, come and help me, I can't handle such a big project by myself."
