Fear Collection

"Oh?" Zhao Jingshuo thought for a while, and understood Xie Jinxi's intentions, "That's right, you can really try the balcony."

Chang Haocun felt a little strange: "Wait, why don't you go out directly from the gate on the first floor? We know that ghosts hovering outside the villa need to follow two killing rules, one is to see him, and the other is to realize that he has malicious intentions. That is to say, we can actually go out with our eyes blindfolded right now, and it’s fine if we don’t see it?”

Zhao Jingshuo shook his head and said: "It's not that simple. The rules of killing are not absolute. I heard from other seniors that he has seen the kind of evil spirits who like to play tricks on people. The evil spirits have made rules for killing themselves, not 'He' has set restrictions on the evil spirit. In other words, that evil spirit can break through the killing rules set by itself at any time."

"At the beginning, the evil spirit seemed to follow certain rules to kill people, and let the taskers figure out the so-called 'rules'. And the self-satisfied taskers who thought that they could live as long as they avoided the rules were all stunned and desperate when the rules were broken. of evil spirits are slain."

"As time goes by, the closer it gets to midnight tonight, the weaker 'He' will be on ghosts. If we go out blindfolded, we are likely to be killed by murderer ghosts wandering outside the villa before night .”

"Yes, after all, the reminder of this fragmented world is 'an old villa'." Xie Jinxi said, "This is misleading, and it is also a reminder."

Xie Jinxi actually wanted to get stuck in a bug.

Xie Jinxi doesn't know how this kind of open balcony is defined in space.

Is this the inside of the villa, or is it outside the villa?Or both?

The best situation is that the open balcony is considered outside the villa for the victims who are active in the villa, and is considered inside the villa for the murderer who is active outside the villa, so that they can spend the last half of the day safely with a bug. night.

Besides, there were Lin Wen's broken limbs in the living room, and Jiang Liu's corpse at the door on the first floor. To go to the door on the first floor, you have to pass the corpses of these two, the risk is too great.

Xie Jinxi looked at his mobile phone with less than 4% battery left, and said, "It's 4:12 in the afternoon. According to previous experience, the lights in the villa will be turned off at 8:8, which also means that there is a gap between day and night. The dividing line is [-] points."

"We waited until about 7:50 and stood blindfolded on the balcony to see if we could survive the remaining four hours."

"No, I roughly understand what you want to do, but what if it's reversed? The balcony belongs to the villa for the victimized ghost, and it also belongs to the outside of the villa for the ghosts outside the villa. Then we will be attacked by the enemy and die for sure. " Zhao Jingshuo raised a question.

Xie Jinxi nodded and said, "That's the worst possibility, so we have to be prepared."

If the last way to survive is really not the balcony of this villa, they have to prepare another way.

"Let's turn over the sheets and clothes and make three strong ropes." Xie Jinxi looked at Chang Haocun and said, "Brother Chang, can you rappel?"

Chang Haocun said: "Of course, you want to climb out from the second floor and descend to the ground by relying on the rope? The height is not too high. If you master the skills of fixing the rope and descending, the success rate is not low for novices."

"Sheets? Can it work?" Zhao Jingshuo didn't know what to do.

Chang Haocun is very clear about this: "When escaping from a fire on a low floor, there are also quilts that can be tied alone and knotted to escape. We can try the rope first. In addition, you can also throw some quilts downstairs. Anyway, you didn't say that you only need time. Once we arrive, we will return to our fragmented world, and will all wounds heal?"

"At the height of the second floor, even if there is no rope, if you jump directly with the correct posture, you will not necessarily die."

"Okay, let's do this." Zhao Jingshuo made a decisive decision.

Nothing is absolutely safe, in the gap between the two ghosts, if they want to live, they can only be prepared to fight.

The three of them busily tore apart the sheets and quilts, tied the sheets, and made ropes. They rummaged through the bedroom and made four sheets that were roughly long enough to reach the first floor.

When talking and making rope, all three of them turned their backs to the balcony, in case they accidentally saw the window being killed by the murderer ghost wandering outside.

After the bed sheet ropes were finished, Chang Haocun fixed the ropes on the feet of the bed in the bedroom respectively, and said: "There is a sliding door between the balcony and the bedroom. Remember to close the sliding door when you retreat to the balcony blindfolded. If the bed moves, it will be stuck in the sliding door, even if the door is stuck for a long time, the bed will also be stuck in the balcony railing."

"It's just that you must grasp it. The rope made of the bed sheet is not long enough, nor strong enough. There is no way to meditate on the knee hanging knot for you. You can only grasp it by yourself. When grasping, you can wrap it around your hand to increase friction. Then when you go down, you have to step on the wall with your feet apart, which will reduce the burden on your arms."

"I hope we can all survive." Chang Haocun reminded the key points and sighed.

He likes extreme sports, and naturally he also learned rock climbing and rappelling, but it was all done under the protection of professional equipment.

However, a mistake caused him to fall down the valley and be smashed to pieces. Will they survive this time?

Time passed by, and as time passed, a strange sound slowly sounded outside the villa, as if someone was wandering back and forth outside the villa with a knife.

Xie Jinxi took a last look at the mobile phone that showed 7:43 and had only 1% of the battery left, took a deep breath, and signaled Chang Haocun and Zhao Jingshuo to cover their eyes with cloth strips torn from their clothes.

Don't be afraid of [-], just be afraid of what happens.

At least "seeing" is an extremely important condition, and there are hints in the information given by 'He'.

It is difficult for people to instinctively suppress the urge to open their eyes when facing danger. In order to make them "invisible", they simply use this method to close their vision.

Of course, for them, the five senses have closed the most important vision, and they cannot see, and then they will fall into an extremely passive situation when facing the grieving ghost.If you have to rappel from the balcony, the difficulty will be doubled if you can't see it.

When Zhao Jingshuo and Chang Haocun turned around and groped towards the balcony with the sheet rope, Xie Jinxi also covered his eyes and retreated to the balcony, of course he did not forget to close the balcony door.

The three of them retreated to the outermost half wall of the open balcony, leaned against each other, and then waited for a long time.

Not long after, Xie Jinxi felt his eyes go dark.

Although the eyes were covered with cloth strips, the changes in the light could still be vaguely felt through the gaps.

The lights in the villa were turned off, which meant it was exactly eight o'clock.

Hey.

Da da da.

The footsteps in the villa became more and more clear.

In the complete deprivation of sight, the other senses, especially hearing, become extraordinarily acute.

The clear footsteps sounded like high-heeled shoes on the floor.

The voice came and went back and forth in the villa, as if looking for something.

However...is it really looking for something?

Xie Jinxi's heart sank continuously.

Time became more and more difficult. After blindfolding, everything fell into darkness, and time seemed to be slowed down countless times.

The sound of high-heeled shoes lingering outside came and went, but the sound never approached them.

In the darkness, the voice had a weird hypnotic effect. Even in such a fearful and tense situation, Xie Jinxi couldn't help but start to lose his mind.

At this time, Chang Haocun suddenly pinched him, Xie Jinxi became sober, and he pushed Zhao Jingshuo in the same way.

Just like that, the three of them reminded each other.

However, standing in the dark for four hours is a double torture both mentally and physically.

Xie Jinxi couldn't remember how many times he almost fell asleep, or whether he had entered a half-dream and half-awake state, and he kept praying in his heart for the last moment to come soon.

As time passed, there were more strange rustling sounds in the corridor on the second floor, and then there were more dragging sounds, these two sounds followed closely behind the footsteps, and kept on the second floor There was a sound in the corridor.

At this time, suddenly, a female voice hummed softly:

"Once upon a time there was a skinny woman,

Of course you've never heard of a woman like this:

everything happened one day,

The lady spotted the person looking at her. "[Note]

"Someone is following me.

Someone is spying on me.

Someone is watching me. "

"I saw him,

He saw me too. "

Xie Jinxi's consciousness suddenly broke free from that chaotic state, listening to this weird ballad, fear slowly fermented in his heart.

At the same time, he felt that Zhao Jingshuo suddenly grabbed his hand tightly.

Yes, he also recognized the voice.

The voice humming a song was clearly Lin Wen's voice.

Lin Wen's body was divided into six parts and scattered in the living room. There were dragging and rustling sounds outside... Could it be that her head was dragging and moving outside, humming as it moved? With a weird ballad?

The song goes on.

"The lady went into her own home,

Searching back and forth.

Look up, look down,

Her head hangs from the shower,

Her bones are in the freezer.

She asked the butcher with the knife,

Where is my meat? "

At this point in the singing, the sound of dragging knives that had been lingering outside the villa disappeared, and then suddenly the sound of "dang" chopping meat sounded in the villa.

When, when, when.

The sound of dense knives and chopping boards hitting their hearts like drums.

Against this background sound, Lin Wen's voice sang repeatedly: "She asked the butcher with the knife, where is my meat?"

"She asked the butcher with the knife...

The sound of high-heeled shoes, dragging, rustling, and chopping meat outside stopped abruptly.

"Da da da."

"Da da da."

"Da da da."

In the darkness and silence, light and regular knocks on the door suddenly sounded.

This distance... Xie Jinxi definitely heard it right, it was their bedroom door that was knocked.

"Where's my meat?"

Lin Wen's voice was superimposed with a sharp strange female voice, which suddenly exploded in their ears.

The author has something to say:
