The sound of dripping into the water became more and more clear.

Now not only a few people, everyone heard it, it was like the clear dripping sound in the ear.

Some people looked up, and the flashlight beams shone through. The ceiling was dripping wet, and the water dripped down in streaks.

The renovation of the museum is terrible... so do the others, get on with it.

Only the man who took away the two glazed cups stared blankly at the ceiling, always feeling that something was wrong.

What's wrong?

More and more water accumulated on the ceiling, flowing wantonly, and gradually, little by little, a strange pattern formed in the man's eyes.

He wanted to see the pattern clearly, so he had to raise the flashlight higher, and his eyes widened, trying to see clearly.

But it was too dark inside the museum, even if he lifted the flashlight with his feet, he couldn't see clearly.The man couldn't help but feel anxious - damn it!What the hell is on it?

What is it?

Yi Yun kept staring at the man, seeing him stop suddenly, standing still with his head raised, the siren rang in his heart.

Because she kept staring ahead vigilantly, she even ignored the increasingly gloomy breath coming from behind.

Lightning streaked across the sky.

The moment it was lit up, the middle-aged man's eyes widened, and he finally saw the pattern clearly.

On the ceiling, water flowed out a pattern of a human face.

The light of lightning was fleeting, and soon the museum fell into darkness again.But the middle-aged man's eyes widened.

Why does he feel that he sees more and more clearly?

No, it wasn't that he was seeing more and more clearly, but that the face was zooming in, and it showed a strange smile at the middle-aged man.

He seemed to hear a strange sound.

Someone is laughing.

In the empty museum, there is a maddening lonely laughter, men and women can't be distinguished, and they are far and near.Very similar to the image of ghosts in human imagination, gray and white translucent shadows float in the darkness.

Those gray and white shadows giggled and stretched out their hands to him...

Yi Yun stared at the other party for a long time, not even knowing when Cao Yi disappeared behind him.

In order to avoid getting into unnecessary trouble, she was a little far away from the middle-aged man, and she could only vaguely see a dark silhouette.

what's on the ceiling

She raised her head in doubt and took a picture, but she still couldn't see anything clearly.

The next moment, her pupils shrank.

The man is gone!

Yi Yun subconsciously took a few steps forward, and looked around in disbelief.

It was empty, only the ground was wet and water-stained. With a "tick", a drop of water fell from the ceiling, splashing small splashes.

Even if she ran away, she couldn't disappear without a trace in a short moment, so...something weird must have happened!

Just... what happened?

Did the middle-aged man disappear because he took the newly unearthed cultural relics from the tomb, or because he kept looking up?

"Cao Yi, you..." She didn't dare to look up again, took two steps back, turned her head to look, only to find that the other party was gone too!

It almost made her scream.

Before she knew it, she realized that she was the only one left in the museum hall.

What about the rest?

Yi Yun didn't dare to think too much, and hurried inside. She took out her mobile phone to contact other people, but found that the signal was not good, and the message could not be sent out at all.

Calm down... According to their experience, yelling is the most taboo at this time, and try not to go to your companions, because it is very likely that it is a ghost pretending to be.

Yi Yun bit her lip stubbornly, but her pace quickened a lot.

You have to... you have to work hard to survive, otherwise what will my daughter do?No one will raise her.

She didn't do many tasks. The first time she received a task, it was because she was picking up her daughter from school.

Yi Yun still remembers that it was a rainy night, and the weather was as bad as it is now. After she brought her home, she was urging him to take a bath, when a voice sounded in her mind, that voice told her that she must She has to rush to a place to do a task before midnight next Wednesday, and at that time, she will go to another world.

Yi Yun didn't believe it at first, but the continuous nightmare for several days made her believe it. The nightmare also told her that if she didn't participate, besides dying suddenly on Wednesday, the task would be transferred to her daughter .

How could she bear it? !How old is your daughter?

In this way, she started her career of working again and again.Every time she narrowly escaped death, she almost lost half of her life. She began to resent in her heart, resent the mission, resent the other world.Inevitably, she also resented her daughter.

If it wasn't for her... If it wasn't for her, if she hadn't picked her up from school that day, wouldn't this kind of thing have happened?

Yi Yun didn't dare to look directly into her heart, so she could only numb herself with maternal love - not only did she live for herself, but she also lived for her daughter.

The flashlight of the mobile phone flickered twice, then went dark, and then, the already weak light disappeared completely.

In the hall, it was truly plunged into boundless darkness.

The cold sweat broke out on his forehead even more, Yi Yun hurriedly fiddled with the phone, but it had run out of battery and turned off.She took out the flashlight again, and as soon as she turned it on, there was a faint sound of electric current, and the light beam disappeared in an instant.

No... don't panic...

Yi Yun tried her best to keep her eyes wide open, and walked into the hall step by step.To avoid hitting the relic cabinet, she moved slowly along the wall.

A bit of light leaked faintly ahead, and this light is as attractive to people in the dark as the water source in the desert is to travelers who have been short of water for a long time.Yi Yun knew that there might be a trap, but couldn't help but walk forward step by step.

When she got closer, she realized that it was a small exhibition hall, the door was closed, and a faint green light poured out from the crack of the door.

Suddenly, she knocked on the door.

"You can come in after you open the door." A young man's voice came from inside with some indifference.

Only then did Yi Yun realize that the door was locked from the outside.She pulled the latch, hesitated for a moment, and pushed the door open.

The square showcases are still placed along the wall, these are not important, the focus is on the exhibits in the middle glass showcase, which are the size of a child's head, round and smooth, emitting a green light.

Almost as soon as I saw it, I thought of a word - night pearl.

It was the first time Yi Yun saw something like Ye Mingzhu, and he let out a small exclamation, only to find a young man standing beside the showcase.

The answer just now seems to be what he said.

Under the light green and soft light, the man's shadow fell on the wall, and he didn't look like a ghost.

When the man turned around, Yi Yun was taken aback.

Isn't it the man who changed rooms with them yesterday?

Lu Yanli also recognized the other party, and nodded slightly: "So it's you."

After standing in the hall and watching for a while, he saw that the two people suddenly stood still, worried that he would become like this after watching for a long time, so he left.

But no matter how careful he was, he still accidentally entered an exhibition hall. Not long after he entered, the strong wind blew, and the glass door closed. It seemed that he also took the door latch along the way. He couldn't go out, so he could only wait.

Meeting someone with a familiar face, Yi Yun couldn't help but relax a little: "Yeah, what a coincidence, by the way, my friend, my name is Yi Yun, what's your name?"

"Lu Yanli."

"So it's Mr. Lu, by the way, do you know anything about it?" Yi Yun pointed at Ye Mingzhu.

"Sorry, I don't understand." Lu Yanli's attitude was very cold.Yi Yun didn't give up, she desperately wanted a companion to walk with her, so she could be more courageous.

Now that the door was open, Lu Yanli didn't need to stay long. He turned his head to look at Ye Mingzhu again, thanked the other party coldly and politely, and left the exhibition hall.

Just as Yi Yun was about to catch up, two more people walked in outside the door.

It was Jing Tao and another tourist who was also trapped in the museum. The latter's eyes immediately froze and turned around the night pearl.

"My God, there is really a night pearl! It must be very valuable, right?"

"You said that in such a dark place, turning on the flashlight consumes a lot of power. If you take this out, wouldn't it be possible to see clearly without using the flashlight?"

The man kept babbling, although he didn't say it directly, but the subtext was obvious.

Jing Tao seemed a little moved, and Yi Yun accompanied him in a play: "But it's not good to take it out like this? What if the staff counts later..."

"Just take it out and have a look, use it first, it's not like we don't put it back, it shouldn't matter, right?"

Yi Yun fell silent, apparently convinced by him.

Tick.

Water dripped on the glass counter.

They stood in a circle around Ye Mingzhu, but they didn't notice that a figure slowly walked past the door.

Lu Yanli returned to the hall again. He used his memory to find the place where the middle-aged man was standing just now, and squatted down to observe carefully.

The floor, which was still waterlogged just now, is now clean without any water stains.

Now that he disappeared, then... where did Liulizhan go?Why did the water stains on the ground disappear?

Lu Yanli stood up and went back to the counter where the glazed cups were placed. The floor was still piled with broken glass.

He vaguely heard something, hesitated for a while, and walked towards the door.

He wanted to try if he could leave.

As soon as this thought came into his mind, Lu Yanli realized that the road under his feet seemed extremely long.The gate was clearly in front of him, but no matter how he walked, he still stayed where he was.

He stopped, glanced at the gate again, turned around, and walked inside.

After walking for a long time, he still didn't come to the end. He even had a ridiculous idea in his heart: Is this museum really that big?

"what!!"

At this moment, a shrill scream sounded in the museum.Immediately afterwards, a series of panicked footsteps came from the right side, and it seemed that the owner of the sound was quite frightened.

It was the tourists who came to visit, a man and a woman, the man was one of the taskers, and the girl was an ordinary tourist.

They didn't know which small exhibition hall they fled left and right, trying to run to the door.Obviously, they also failed, and Lu Yanli watched them keep running, but the distance from him did not widen at all.

"What should I do? I don't want to die!" The girl cried with snot and tears, "If I knew it, I wouldn't have come here. What kind of museum is this? It's obviously haunted!"

"Stop talking, keep your voice down, what if you are discovered?" The man's voice also had a sense of urgency, "Should we find a way to escape?"

"That's right. It rains when it rains. It's a big deal to catch a cold. Let's go first."

"Do you want to call them?"

"Are you stupid? What do you say yourself?"

Because it was too dark, they didn't seem to notice Lu Yanli, and chatted as if no one else was around.It wasn't until the latter coughed lightly that they realized that there was a person standing in the corner. The girl screamed again in fright, and the man hurriedly stopped her: "It's okay, it seems to be a person."

"Excuse me, let me ask, what is the haunting you are talking about?"

Seeing that the other party seemed to be a human being and looked calm, the two immediately started talking.

"...We went to another exhibition hall just now, and there was a suit of armor in that hall, so we took a closer look..." Speaking of which, the girl stretched out her hand and slapped the other party, "Obviously he moved the armor .”

"Anyway, the head of the armor accidentally fell off. Just as we were about to put it on, it suddenly moved and chased us! This museum must be haunted!"

Lu Yanli smiled: "Not necessarily, what if it is a robot? I heard that some museums will do this, using robots to disguise themselves as collections."

"Yes, is that so?" The man was dubious.

He knew deep down in his heart that this must be a ghost, but he still hoped that the weirdness would not come so soon.Lu Yanli's words comforted him somewhat.

How long has it been?They didn't even see the shadow of the Pisces jade pendant.It would be too unfair to be targeted by ghosts.

"Yes, if it's really the ghost you said, why didn't it chase it out?" Lu Yanli's voice was very gentle, even though his face couldn't be seen clearly in the dark, the couple couldn't help but want to believe each other, thinking that what he said was right. right.

Lu Yanli had guessed that each collection seemed to have a certain range of attack, which might be the reason why the museum tempted people to disperse and enter different exhibition halls.

However, this still needs to be verified.

"But it's better to be taboo about these things, they are ancient relics after all."

Lu Yanli didn't say anything like ghosts in the world, which made his words much more believable.

After hearing this, the girl felt that it made sense. The fear of ghosts made her subconsciously trust this man.

"But, but we didn't run out just now..." the girl muttered.

The man changed the subject.

"By the way, my name is Lu Yanli, how about you?" In the darkness, Lu Yanli slowly approached, staring at the two of them with eyes darker than the night.

"I... My name is Wang Pengfei."

"Ke Xiaoxue."

Ke Xiaoxue was still very scared, so she made a request: "If you don't mind, can you walk with us? I feel that something is really wrong. We wanted to run just now, but we didn't." Her voice gradually weakened, "It's almost Like...a ghost hitting a wall."

Because of the psychological hint just now, they all developed a warm feeling for Lu Yanli.

Lu Yanli smiled gently: "Okay."

It just so happened that he also needed to witness some phenomena with his own eyes to verify his speculation.

As a provincial museum, the local government is very willing to spend money. The entire museum occupies a very large area. It is divided into three main exhibition halls and 42 sub-exhibition halls, of which two main exhibition halls C1 and C2 are juxtaposed, and 31 sub-exhibition halls D1- D31 is located on the first floor.The rest are all on the second floor and are closed all the year round, generally not open to ordinary tourists.

They passed the first row of display cases.

Lu Yanli remembered very clearly that there were small jade objects inside.

The tasker named Wang Pengfei looked at it carefully before going to the next row.

Soon, they passed the second row, and there were mostly jewelry in the display cabinets.

Wang Pengfei wanted to test it out, and quietly said to Ke Xiaoxue, "Look, these hairpins are pretty, right?"

Under the light of the flashlight, several hostas shone with soft and gentle light.

It’s okay to visit during the day, with the mentality of admiring the cultural relics, now, it is in front of me, within reach, no one knows, and no one leaks the secrets...Ke Xiaoxue looked at the hairpins and immediately looked at the cultural relics from tourists , into a woman's view of jewelry.

really beautiful……

She reached out and groped on the glass case.

Lu Yanli didn't stop him, but stood a little further away.

Wang Pengfei was even happier: "If you like it very much, we can take it out and wear it, just wear it once, don't take it away, put it back after wearing it, and nothing will happen."

Ke Xiaoxue murmured, "Just wearing it?"

"Yes, just put it on and take a look. Anyway, let us see it. It should be okay to touch it, right? Besides, it's all jade. Be careful, it won't be damaged."

Ke Xiaoxue was still hesitating, but Wang Pengfei had already taken out the metal knife from his pocket and cut it hard.

"It's okay, let's take a look."

While speaking, he had already cut a slit in the glass cabinet, turned his wrist, and cut a hole the size of five fingers.

"Whichever you like, you can try it out." Wang Pengfei advised her.

Ke Xiaoxue couldn't bear the temptation anymore, stretched out her hand, and slowly removed a jade hairpin from the shelf.

"It's really beautiful..." Her expression gradually became obsessed, but she didn't realize that something was wrong, and she still stroked her face obsessively.

Wang Pengfei and Lu Yanli were completely sure that the collections in the museum were indeed weird.

Light slowly came from the side, a little fluorescent green, Wang Pengfei looked back, shocked, and trotted over in a hurry.

"Damn it, you guys are so amazing, you even found the Pearl of the Night." He turned off the flashlight with a look of amazement.

Yi Yun smiled helplessly.

Both she and Jing Tao knew that the cultural relics here should not be touched casually, so they simply lured the ordinary tourist and asked him to take the Ye Mingzhu.

Now, holding the luminous pearl in his hand, the tourist could hardly hear anything, and just followed the two of them idiotically, acting as a moving light source.

Yi Yun still had concerns in his heart: "Tell me, will there be a mutation in them?"

Jing Tao shook his head: "Probably not, look at the man who took the glazed cup, he just disappeared, the worst result should be disappearing, right?"

The man holding the luminous pearl in his hand followed behind them. After walking a certain distance, he stopped suddenly.At the same time, Ke Xiaoxue, who had already put on the jade hairpin and touched her face with a fascinated face, seemed to have just realized it, and turned her head suddenly, staring at the other party.

The three taskers realized that something was wrong.

"what happened?"

Why do they seem so unfriendly?Almost like a fight.

Lu Yanli took a few steps back again, stood in the dark, and looked at the only three smart people in this group of taskers.

Jing Tao tentatively stretched out his hand, trying to pull the man holding the Ye Mingzhu forward, but the latter seemed to have roots under his feet, and did not move.

It was as if, if he took another step forward, something terrible would happen!

Jing Tao had to give up.

Yi Yun pursed her lips: "You said, the museum is abnormal this time, what will be the way out?"

She counted on her fingers: "Once people get close to cultural relics, they will be attracted to them. Taking them away by force is likely to cause harm, so the first way to survive is not to take cultural relics away."

"But now, two people who hold cultural relics at the same time cannot approach each other. Is their inaccessibility a common phenomenon or an individual phenomenon?"

Wang Pengfei understood: "Well, let's ask another person to do the experiment."

Jing Tao and Yi Yun agreed.

The three of them seemed to ignore Lu Yanli intentionally or unintentionally. The latter was very satisfied with his hypnotic effect, and stood quietly in the corner, waiting for the results of their experiments.

They quickly discussed the division of labor, Wang Pengfei stood there and waited, Jing Tao and Yi Yun took the night pearl holders to try to bring other tourists for experiments.

Another drop of water fell and landed on the floor where a shallow layer of water had already accumulated.

Jing Tao and Yi Yun left, and the light gradually dimmed.

"Speaking of which, the person holding the glazed cup disappeared, so where did the glazed cup he was carrying go?" After the two left, Jing Tao asked.

Yi Yun shook his head: "I was staring at it all the time, but I didn't notice it, but he disappeared as soon as I turned my head. Even Cao Yi disappeared."

While talking, they passed a small exhibition hall.

It was dark inside, but there were a few slight sounds.

"Is anyone there?" Yi Yun shouted inside, and at the same time asked the person holding the night pearl to stand inside, letting the soft light illuminate the entire small exhibition hall.

Under the illumination of the night pearl, the entire exhibition hall can be seen at a glance.They noticed with sharp eyes that there was a girl curled up in the corner of the exhibition hall. She was trembling all over, her clothes were wet from the water on the ground, and she was trembling.

And that girl... Who else could it be if it wasn't Cao Yi?

"Cao Yi? Why are you here?" Yi Yun raised his voice and asked.

The latter still curled up into a ball with his back to them, seemingly not hearing or answering.Yi Yun had no choice but to step forward, reach out and turn over the opponent, but was immediately startled by the opponent's face.

Cao Yi's face...why is it so animal-like?

It's almost like the legendary cat demon.

She opened her eyes suddenly, green light flashed in both eyes, and Yi Yun could even see her pupils standing in a straight line.

"What... what's going on?" Jing Tao was also taken aback, "Run!"

Yi Yun turned and ran, Jing Tao dragged her along, left the tourist who was standing there stupidly, and ran away.

Cao Yi sat up, stretched out her hand as if not used to the light, and knocked over the luminous pearl.
