time traveler

They passed the first few doors and walked to the sixth door. Xia Run turned the handle and opened the door.

At that moment, joyful music flowed out from the door, and the flickering candlelight accompanied by the child's innocent laughter seemed extraordinarily weird.

Tang Xi poked his head over and saw a group of six- and seven-year-old little bean dings, wearing brightly colored clothes, playing with their backs to each other.

This room is obviously much larger than the previous one. It is a large European-style living room with all kinds of European-style furniture. There are no electric lights installed in it. With a white candle as thick as an arm, the candle flame sways automatically without wind, flickering from time to time, making the whole room feel ghostly.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, all the little Doudings suddenly stopped their movements at the same time. They were in unison and stiff mechanically, which was extremely weird. Then their heads turned back 360 degrees in vain. More than a dozen pairs of painted black eyes were like deep black holes. Staring at them in unison.

Tang Xi gasped, feeling like he was about to pee out of fright, and quickly moved behind Xia Run with his legs between his legs.

There were two blobs of bright red rouge on the pale, primed face in front of him, the mouth was as red as blood, and the corners of the mouth were raised exaggeratedly, grinning all the way to the cheekbones, looking very creepy.

How can there be any innocent and cute children, this is clearly a group of puppets with scary and mysterious shapes!

"Haha, there are newcomers joining!" These puppets clapped their hands dully, and laughed in a cheerful childish voice, "Come on, come on, play games with us!"

After finishing speaking, the group of puppets surrounded them at a very fast speed, surrounded them and walked towards the door. While pushing and shoving, they sang a cheerful nursery rhyme to the weird music:

"Come on open the door, I just want to play with you,

(Hide well, hide well!)

Hurry up and hide, let's play a game together, I'll be a ghost and you hide, the first one to be a ghost is me!

(Hide fast, hide fast!)

It's too late to run away now, I've seen you!

You're really bad at hiding,

I've seen you oh

I feel your fear,

Haha, wait, I'm coming for you

(wait, wait,)

you can't escape

(Run away, run away,)

I'm here to find you..."

Tang Xi didn't want to go in at all, but these puppets were surprisingly powerful, and they were pushed into the room without allowing him to struggle.

He quickly looked at Xia Run, and asked with a mournful face, "Boss, what should we do now!"

Xia Run was about to come in to look for watermelon candies, so he didn't resist, and followed the puppet into the door. The door closed behind them with a bang, the candle flickered, and light gray smoke curled up from the flame of the wick , the room looked even more gloomy.

The puppets held hands and surrounded the two of them in the middle, laughing and circling around them. While circling in circles, they laughed maliciously and said, "Let's play a game! Hahaha~ come and play!"

Xia Run hugged the little red umbrella and said expressionlessly, "Yes!"

Tang Xiqing hid behind him with a pale face. Upon hearing this, he quickly tugged at the hem of his clothes and said anxiously: "Boss, don't agree! Be careful, it's a trap."

The puppets didn't care about this, seeing Xia Run agreed, they immediately danced happily: "I'll be a ghost and you hide, the first one to be a ghost is me..."

"No!" Xia Run interrupted them, "I was the first to be a ghost!"

As if the pause switch was pressed suddenly, all sounds and movements stopped at the same time without warning, and a needle could be heard in the room.

"Crack! Kick! Kick!"

The puppets turned their heads stiffly after a pause, looked at Xia Run in unison, and repeated viciously: "I'll be a ghost, come and hide, the first one to be a ghost is me..."

Xia Run waved the little red umbrella expressionlessly, and repeated: "No! As I said, I was the first to be a 'ghost'!"

The room became even quieter. You could even hear the sound of Tang Xi's upper teeth colliding with his lower teeth. The dolls stared at Xia Run coldly. A chilling feeling of suffocation permeated the silence. Xia Run was still lazy Standing on the same spot, as if he didn't feel the increasingly gloomy atmosphere.

"But...'ghosts' must be able to sing!" The puppets said in unison, gloomyly, and they finally found a suitable reason.

"Who said I can't?" Xia Run asked lazily. Although it was the first time he heard that weird nursery rhyme, he had a good memory. Well, memorizing a nursery rhyme with a simple tune is not a piece of cake, then I cleared my throat and began to sing.

The moment he spoke, Tang Xi and the puppets froze in place as if they had been struck by lightning. They could only feel the demonic singing lingering in their ears, uninterrupted. While it was unbelievable, they were in a trance, and at the same time they faintly doubted life.

Tang Xi:! !

Puppets: ...

Tang Xi covered his face, all he wanted to say was: Stop, it's a friendly army, don't open your mouth!

In fact, Xia Run's gentle and clear voice is not unpleasant, but I don't know why, as soon as she sings, people will kneel down first, and her out-of-tune is horrible, and she wants to rush out of the Milky Way.

The nursery rhyme was not long, and it was finished soon. Xia Run was still full of ideas, so he smacked his lips and asked, "How is it? Do you want me to sing it again?"

"No! No! You're a ghost! You're a ghost!" the puppets covered their ears and screamed.

"Oh, that's fine." Xia Run shrugged regretfully.

The cheerful music sounded again, Xia Run was blindfolded, and the puppets sang the nursery rhyme again. Under the flickering candlelight, the ghosts were treacherous, and the puppets laughed endlessly.

"One hundred...start." Xia Run reminded when he silently counted to one hundred.

All the noises stopped abruptly again, Xia Run pulled off the black cloth that blindfolded his eyes, and there was no one in front of him, he stretched out his hand, palm up, as if he was holding something he couldn't see, and put his hand flat on his chest forward.

Turning around in the room, he searched casually, then approached the dining table, tapped on the table, and said, "Okay, don't hide, I found you."

After waiting for a while, seeing that no one came out, he bent down and lifted up the tablecloth, meeting Tang Xi who was nestled inside.

"Why, you are quite involved in playing?" Xia Run asked with a smile.

Tang Xi put down his hand covering his mouth, twisted his fingers and smiled shyly: "Hey~ I can't help it."

Xia Run's expression froze, and he said, "Come out soon!"

Tang Xi quickly crawled out and followed closely behind him.

Xia Run looked down at the invisible individual combat ball in his hand. The life detector showed that another life reaction in the room was in the display cabinet. He walked slowly over and opened the display cabinet pretending to be looking for it. A rag doll in red clothes, he reached out and took her out.

When Xia Run picked up the doll, there was a slight sound from the ceiling. Tang Xi trembled in fright, and was about to look up when Xia Run held her down.

"Don't move." Xia Run lowered her eyelashes, glanced sideways at Tang Xi, and said softly, "No matter what happens, don't look up."

Hearing this, Tang Xi quickly lowered his head, wishing he could bury his head in his crotch.

Xia Run stuffed the doll into Tang Xi's arms, then dragged Tang Xi towards the door, emphasizing loudly, "I'm coming to you!"

"Shushasha——" the candlelight flickered for a moment, and the sound on the ceiling became louder, and something was lying on it and crawling restlessly.

"I'm coming—" Xia Run dragged his voice, grabbed the doorknob and pulled it away abruptly. At the same time, he kicked Tang Xi out, and he also flitted sideways lightly.

The candle flames in the room suddenly elongated, several inhuman roars sounded from the ceiling, countless horrific ghosts jumped down from the ceiling, and rushed towards the door with their teeth and claws.

"Da", the door closed, shutting behind the door all the ghosts and monsters in the room.

"Then, what are those? Boss!" Tang Xi asked tremblingly holding the doll shaking like a sieve.

"The puppets from before." Xia Run replied.

"It's a lie!" Tang Xi exclaimed. He kept his head down just now, and when he came out, he vaguely saw the shadows cast from the door. Those hideous monsters that seemed to appear only from nightmares were The original puppet?

Tang Xi thought of something again, and couldn't help but shuddered and shouted: "So, those things just now... were lying on the ceiling above our heads, looking at us all the time?"

"Ah."

Tang Xi was so afraid that his legs became weak all of a sudden, and he patted his chest and couldn't help but rejoice. Fortunately, he didn't look up after listening to the boss!

Xia Run pinched his fingers, and vaguely figured out the weak point of this space - he is not good at divination, and now he can be regarded as rushing ducks to the shelves, and he has no choice but to.

Pulling Tang Xi, who was already stunned, to the door of the stairwell, he opened the door and looked outside. The group of "bald monsters" had disappeared, and they should have returned to the first floor.

Xia Run led the two of them to the weak spot, hesitantly with golden light on his fingertips, tore open an exit, and stuffed Tang out.

In a blink of an eye, the mirror image collapsed, and they appeared out of thin air at the entrance of a small alley in reality.

As soon as he returned to reality, the doll Tang Xi was holding returned to its girlish appearance. Tang Xi was caught off guard and was almost crushed to the ground.

"Wow, why are these sisters so heavy!" Tang Xi complained, and quickly changed her position to hug her again.

Fortunately, the girl was still in a coma at this time, otherwise she would definitely jump up and ask: How heavy is my aunt's standard figure of one hundred catties!

Less than 2 minutes after they came back, they heard a piercing siren. Not long after, a police car sped up, and then made a beautiful drift and stopped firmly in front of them.

The car door opened, and Officer Bingshanlian got out of the car. He walked in front of them with a gloomy face, and asked coldly, "Can you explain why you suddenly disappeared a day ago?"

"Yo, Mr. Police Officer 'Sky Fiend Lone Star', hello, we meet again!" Xia Run greeted him happily.

Officer Bingshan looked them up and down, frowned and asked, "Have you gone to the other world?"

Although it was a question sentence, the tone was very firm.

"Guess." Xia Run blinked inscrutablely, then pointed to the girl in Tang Xi's arms and said, "Well, Mr. Police Officer, before interrogating us like criminals, can I trouble you to send this lady to recruit someone first?" Soul? If you delay for a while, it will be hard to find her lost soul!"
