Fear Collection

Xie Jinxi seemed to still be able to see the afterimage of the out-of-control sports car rushing towards him.

The pupils of his eyes dilated slightly, his heart beat faster, his adrenaline soared, and he even took a few short breaths involuntarily. The fear of dying still remained in his mind, making his body still in a state of stress.

Immediately afterwards, before he could calm down, it was as if some invisible force had cut open his head and instilled some knowledge and rules into his mind.

The brain that originally belonged to him was forcibly instilled with external information. This feeling was not pleasant, and even briefly diluted the remaining fear of dying in his body.

Xie Jinxi stood still for a long time before digesting all the information.

Then he found the scene of his death in those messages.

Obviously, he was indeed dead. In other words, it is more accurate to say that he had indeed died in an accidental car accident in the real world.

The out-of-control sports car hit him who was normally walking on the zebra crossing, dragged out a bloodstain nearly ten meters long, and finally rushed onto the sidewalk and crashed into a shop facing the street.

Seeing the final frame of the live scene, he, the people in the sports car and the people in the shop must surely die.

Xie Jinxi probably didn't know the scene after the car accident, but that force showed him his death in order to make him accept the reality.

Xie Jinxi looked around, and found that he was standing in front of an old villa, and there were six people standing beside him, four men and two women, who appeared to be of different ages, including middle-aged and childish young people.

Five of the six people didn't look very good-looking, just like him, they kept looking around and their eyes flickered.

Another man in his thirties who behaved quite normally, looked around them, paused for a moment on the handsome Xie Jinxi, sighed, and said, "I still thought there should be at least one more Veterans like me, I didn’t expect that everyone except me would be newcomers this time.”

"Okay, you should all know why you came here. Our task is to stay in this villa until midnight on the third day. Don't stand in front of the door. Let's go in if we have something to say. Don't worry, we It's a gang, and I'll tell you everything I know."

After speaking, he pushed open the door of the villa and walked in first.

Didn't it lock it?

When Xie Jinxi and the others walked in, they also paid attention to the lock on the villa's gate.

After entering, several people walked to the living room and sat down on the sofa.

The man who claimed to be a senior looked at them, sighed, and said: "Let's introduce ourselves, we have to stay here for the next three days, starting from me, and going clockwise from my right hand side Come in turn."

"My name is Zhao Jingshuo. I am 32 years old. I used to be a social animal like everyone else. Later, I met someone throwing objects in the sky on the way to work, and then I opened my eyes and came here."

The first person on the right side of Zhao Jingshuo was a middle-aged man. Seeing this, he introduced himself: "I am 46 years old, my surname is Li, and my name is Li Xingsheng. I just opened a small trading company, and I have a little family background. . . . well, I shouldn't drink."

Li Xingsheng looked like a very common middle-aged body, and he also had a beer belly, but he didn't know whether he died of some disease caused by drinking, or because of drunk driving.

Then there was a muscular man with a rather strong build. He said: "My name is Chang Haoyu. I am 28 years old. I am a trainer in a gym and I like extreme sports."

Hearing this, everyone present could not help but glance at him.

Next to Chang Haoyu was an ordinary young man who introduced himself as Jiang Liu, who was only 26 years old and an ordinary white-collar worker. Next to him was Xie Jinxi.

Xie Jinxi also briefly introduced herself: "Xie Jinxi, 27 years old, a doctoral student, unfortunately encountered a car accident on the road."

After saying Xie Jinxi, I felt some regret in the eyes of others looking over.

Such a young man with an outstanding appearance, gentle temperament, and a Ph.D. can be called a young talent. Who would have thought that he would be in a car accident? What a pity.

Next to Xie Jinxi are the last two women, one is only 20 years old, a college student, named Lin Wen; the other is a housewife, 41 years old, named Zheng Qiongfang.

Including Xie Jinxi, there were seven people present, five men and two women.

After introducing himself, everyone's eyes fell on the only senior person, Zhao Jingshuo.

When Xie Jinxi was listening to her self-introduction, she also carefully digested the information that had just been poured into her.

According to the information, they have died in reality, and the place where they are now is the so-called "opposite side of the world", which is opposite to the normal real world.

Xie Jinxi understood it a little bit, and it was roughly the meaning of the other world mentioned in the movie.

The negative world is formed by the condensation of people's negative emotions and consciousness. It is full of evil spirits, curses, ghosts, monsters, etc., which people fear and hate. In other words, it is people's fear and hatred that condenses these things.

And they were drawn into this world by a certain existence after death.

The negative world is not as complete as the positive world. On the contrary, the negative world is like broken glass, with fragments of different sizes.

The information in their minds told them that as long as they survived the seven fragmented worlds, that existence would release them back to the real world and help them resurrect from the dead.

The information was poured into their heads from the very beginning, but that doesn't mean they didn't have questions.

The veteran Zhao Jingshuo said: "I have only experienced two more worlds than you. This is my third world. You should have received the message that 'He' asked us to stay here until midnight on the third day. We can get out of here when the time comes."

Xie Jinxi recalled the highlights of those messages.

[First World: Old Villa]

[Mission: Survive here until midnight of the third night]

[Description: This is an old villa. On this day, seven co-tenants came to this villa.However, they slowly discovered that they seemed to see something they shouldn't have seen. 】

This part seemed to be imprinted in his mind every word, and it was so mandatory that it was hard to forget.

"Don't think it's something easy," Zhao Jingshuo paused at this point, "After all, this is a world where there are evil spirits and ghosts, and if you are not careful, you will die again. And... I think you also know Yes, sometimes death is not the end, after death, there may be more frightening things than death.”

"For example, I also become a ghost, and I am forever bound to the 'opposite side of the world', unable to escape."

"Hey, this...isn't this hell?" The middle-aged businessman Li Xingsheng held back his words for a long time, then hurriedly touched the neckline, took out the jade Buddha statue hanging from his neck, and pressed it on his chest.

Zhao Jingshuo shook his head when he saw this, and said: "It's useless, let's put it this way, the positive world is a purely materialistic world, and nothing brought into the positive world has metaphysical functions such as exorcising evil spirits; the negative world is different, what do you think?" Looking for things that exorcise ghosts, ward off evil spirits and save lives can only be obtained from the reverse world."

"However, this is the opposite world, a world where all malice and negativity are condensed, there are many curses, ghosts and evil spirits, and there is almost nothing to exorcise ghosts and evil spirits."

"He?" The female college student Lin Wen caught this special word.

Zhao Jingshuo nodded and said, "We will meet different teammates in different fragmented worlds, some are newcomers, and some are veterans."

"After communicating with each other, the seniors believe that it is a certain existence that pulls us here and allows us to experience different fragmented worlds, an existence similar to gods or demons."

"We have no way to determine what that existence is, we can only use 'he' to refer to it."

"But one thing is for sure, everything in the negative world is negative, and 'He' also holds great malice towards us. Under the control of 'He', we can only struggle to survive, hoping that we can survive seven years. A fragmented world."

Everyone was silent for a while, because as Zhao Jingshuo said, two problems can obviously be derived.

Can anyone really survive the seven fragmented worlds?After all, that 'he' is full of malice towards the tasker.

Even if he can really live through the seven fragmented worlds, will 'He' keep his promise and release them back to the real world?

No one has an answer.

Jiang Liu, a white-collar young man, pinched his fingernails anxiously, and couldn't help but said, "You mean there may be ghosts in this villa? Then we... can we not live here? Isn't it just until midnight on the third day? I read that the message didn't say that we have to stay in this villa, why don't we go to the villa next door?"

"Before I came in, I looked at the surrounding environment. There are other villas beside me!"

Hearing that the muscular man Chang Haoyu snorted, he said, "The ghost wants to kill you. Is there any difference between you being here and next door?"

"You...you don't understand, some ghosts are earth-bound spirits, and they can't leave a certain place." Jiang Liu said eagerly, "This routine is used in movies, try it, try it, you will always be able to find it." It’s better to just stay like this.”

Zhao Jingshuo was silent for a while, and slowly said: "Yes, what you said is correct. Although 'He' did not stipulate that we must spend three days in this villa, the loopholes are not so easy to find. At least from my Judging from my experience, 'He' will not allow us to avoid evil spirits so easily."

"The simplest thing is the limitation of space and time. The time limitation is given to us. Although the space limitation is not explicitly stated, it echoes the name of this fragmented world. It should be this villa."

"There is a high probability that the villas next door or nearby are out of reach."

"If you don't believe it or are unwilling, you can try to see if you can go to the villa next door."

"Try?" Zheng Qiongfang, a middle-aged housewife, frowned and asked, "Will there be any danger?"

Zhao Jingshuo looked around and found the watch, and said, "The time is now 21:[-], and the sky outside should be [-]:[-] noon. We have just arrived in this world, and it is still daytime, so it should be the safest."

"This kind of fragmented world that is dominated by time requirements will gradually increase the level of danger as time goes by. So if you have any ideas, it is best to try it as soon as possible."

"By the way, I remind you that you must go together. As you know, in many movies or TV shows, the people who have the greatest chance of dying are those who are alone."
