reincarnation train

After returning from the world under the car, Wu Xiajiu felt a little light-headed and his throat was uncomfortable. He thought he must have caught a cold, but after taking some medicine, he still didn't feel better the next day and started to cough a little.

"It's serious." Shi Shangzuo frowned and patted Wu Xiajiu's back.

"Ahem, I'm fine. I probably caught a cold in the mausoleum. Just take some medicine." Wu Xiajiu drank a cup of hot water in his hand.

Shi Shangzuo was still a little worried. Even if there was a doctor on the train, he could only prescribe some medicine. There was no tool for injection and infusion, and the effect of taking medicine was slow.

Sure enough, before getting out of the car again, Wu Xiajiu's illness didn't improve quickly, and he kept coughing intermittently.

"Hello, passengers and friends, the train will arrive at the sixth station tomorrow. Passengers are requested to arrive at the train hall on time at 6:45 a.m. and get off in line. The sixth station is the seaside resort station, and the train will stay here for 6 days. , passengers please get on the bus as soon as possible within the limited time, and finally, I wish you all a good time.”

Tang Yunsi rubbed his nose and said, "The seaside resort, why is it called this name, is it possible that you can take a vacation this time when you get off the car?"

Wu Xiajiu's illness is still not healed, he speaks with a nasal voice, and his voice is a little hoarse. Hearing this, he asked, "Do you want to wear some sunscreen?"

"Haha, bring another sun umbrella, and open it yourself." Fang Zi answered with a smile.

Tang Yunsi shook his head seriously and said, "Then don't worry about it. What if the weather is bad and it's winter."

It was originally a joke, but after getting off the train, everyone found that Tang Yunsi had hit the mark. The place where the train stopped was on a beach with thick snow on the beach. The sea water is frozen, and the buildings in the distance are covered in silver.

"Ahem, luckily I brought clothes." Wu Xiajiu said in a hoarse voice. Before he could move, Shi Shangzuo had already taken out a coat from the backpack on his back and wrapped it up for Wu Xiajiu, but it was wrinkled again. Frowning, he grabbed the sleeve of his coat and said, "It's a bit thin."

They didn't bring down jackets or cotton jackets, and they couldn't fit them in their backpacks. Although these jackets were somewhat warm, they definitely wouldn't work if they stayed for a long time, especially when Wu Xiajiu was still sick.

"Put on my coat too." Shi Shang's left body was hot, even if he was only wearing a single shirt, his hands were still hot, so he put on his coat for Wu Xiajiu again, holding his hand with both hands and said, " Get out of here first."

It's windy at the seaside, so it's not good to stay for a long time.

As soon as he walked a few steps, he saw two people coming from the opposite side. They both knew each other. They were Xiao Xiao and the woman he met in the glacier world. Xiao Xiao called her Sister Zheng.

"Long time no see, we found a sign over there, which marked the route to the resort." Xiao Xiao pointed to the side where the two came.

A few people greeted each other and walked there. Wu Xiajiu was a little uncomfortable by the wind, buried his face in his collar, shrunk his neck, and coughed a few times from time to time. He looked pitiful. Shishang Zuo held his hand all the time, and now he hugged him in his arms again, "Hold on a little longer, it will be fine when we get to the resort."

"En." Wu Xiajiu responded in a low nasal voice.

Seeing that he still looked uncomfortable, Shi Shangzuo took out a candy from his pocket, "Just eat one."

After Wu Xiajiu caught a cold, Shi Shangzuo temporarily confiscated all his candy, and even ate it very strictly, and he didn’t like to see the candy wrapper when he coughed. This time, he finally gave him one. Wu Xiajiu’s eyes were full of joy He opened his mouth to eat, and the refreshing taste of mints also made his throat feel better.

The wind at the seaside was strong and the wind was whistling. They didn't go too far. They found the location of the resort and finally saw people after they got out of the beach.

This person was dressed in the attire of a lobby manager. He called himself Bi, and he was here to receive tourists. When he saw the crowd, he walked over with a smile on his face. There are also many people here who are on vacation, and there is not enough manpower to pick you up."

While talking, Manager Bi led the crowd to the resort hotel, and met several uniformed service staff on the way, looking at the passing passengers and whispering.

"Why do you come here to play in the winter? In the past, no one came here in winter, but this year is not good. I can't even go home during the holidays."

"Keep down, people are willing to come over, can you control it, work hard."

The voice didn't restrain itself deliberately, and even after the last job was said, the service staff didn't leave. The expressions on their faces were numb, and they looked like NPCs in the game, and they specifically said something to them.

Fang Zi hissed and rubbed his arms. Professor Zhou asked him what was wrong, and Fang Zi said, "No, I just suddenly thought of a horror movie."

Xiao Xiao, who followed, turned his head and said, "Hey, don't talk about it first, I also thought of one, let's see if we both think the same."

As they spoke, the two said it together, "Shining!"

"Hahaha, that's right, brothers see the same thing." Fang Zi said indiscriminately, patting Xiao Xiao on the shoulder.

Lu Nandao, "It's different. In the movie, the mountains are covered by heavy snow, and there are only three people in the hotel, not even a service staff. Here we are on the beach covered by heavy snow, and there are managers and waiters in the resort, even..."

Fang Zi called out, "Lao Lu, Lao Lu, I beg you, okay, not to mention that we are still good friends, I mean that kind of feeling, feeling! It looks like there is, don't you think?"

Lu Nan thought about it seriously, and then said, "It's okay."

Fang Zi: "..."

The chat failed, Fang Zi kept his mouth shut obediently, Manager Bi brought a few people to the second floor, arranged for two people to share a room, and then went downstairs to receive other passengers.

The rooms of the few of them are all next to each other. The room is well-equipped and beautifully furnished. It looks like a baroque. There is only one big bed in the room. After putting down the things, Shi Shangzuo boiled some hot water for Wu After a long time, take medicine and rest first.

"Sleep, I'll watch by your side." Shi Shang held Wu Xiajiu's hand on the left and said, tucking the corner of the quilt for him.

Wu Xiajiu nodded, and closed his eyes reassuringly. After catching a cold, his body always felt a little uncomfortable, and he seemed to have no energy. He was tired at the moment, and soon fell asleep.

Immersed in dark and sweet dreams, Wu Xiajiu fell asleep more and more unsteadily. He closed his eyes, but felt that he was waking up, but everything around him was blurred, and his body could not move. He vaguely felt There was a figure sitting beside his bed, looking down at him. Wu Xiajiu knew it was Shi Shangzuo, and he was not afraid or vigilant. He opened his mouth, wanting Shi Shangzuo to pull him up, but he opened his mouth. , but he wasn't sure if he had made a sound.

He seemed to be trapped in a dream, struggling for a while, but couldn't get up, couldn't open his eyes, at this moment, he heard footsteps coming from outside the door, as if there were many people running , Accompanied by the shouting, Wu Xia didn't hear clearly for a long time, but he could feel the panic and fear coming from outside the door, which made his heart heavy.

Gradually, the sound of footsteps began to decrease, but the feeling of fear became more and more intense, and the door was sometimes slammed, as if someone outside the door couldn't support it, and had to prop up the wall or the door to move forward. At this time, Smoke began to gradually creep in from the crack in the door.

Wu Xiajiu felt that it was difficult to breathe. He felt that he started to cough, but he didn't hear the sound of coughing, but his body felt very uncomfortable...

"Jiujiu, Jiujiu? Wake up, did you have a nightmare?" Shi Shangzuo's voice finally reached his ears, and Wu Xiajiu felt his face was being touched, his body lay flat, slowly open one's eyes.

Shi Shangzuo hugged him and lay on the bed. At this time, he was propped up on top of him with a worried face. Wu Xiajiu looked at the side of the bed, but no one was sitting there, "Shang Zuo, when did you come up?"

"Not long after you fell asleep." Shi Shang left his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead, "What's wrong, did you have a nightmare?"

Wu Xia took a few breaths for a long time, nodded and said what he had dreamed just now, "...it's like a ghost pressing a bed, no matter how hard you wake up, you can't wake up."

"It's okay, I'm right here." Shi Shangzuo leaned over and hugged him, and put one hand into the back of his clothes to caress, "I'm sweating, how about taking a hot bath later?"

Wu Xia huddled in his arms for a long time and nodded, but his mind was thinking about the scene he saw in his dream. He pinched Shi Shangzuo's palm with one finger, and he was a little lost, "I dreamed... it was from this resort hotel. The previous situation? Did you say that there was a fire here before?"

"At that time, you can ask the manager or waiter here." After Shi Shangzuo finished speaking, he pulled Wu Xia to get up for a long time, "Go take a shower, and let's go down for dinner."

Feeling better after taking a bath, Wu Xiajiu put on two coats and followed Shi Shangzuo out.

As soon as I arrived in the lobby, I saw a long table neatly arranged. There were food on the long table, and you could take it yourself. At this time, almost everyone came down. There were a lot of people. Some people took the food and planned to go upstairs with their plates. , it seems to be eaten in the room.

"Xiao Jiujiu, Brother Shi, here!" Fang Zi over there saw the two appearing, and hurriedly beckoned.

"I went to find you two just now, and Brother Shi said that you were taking a bath..." Fang Zi handed Wu Xiajiu a plate of food, and whispered with a wink, "Brother Shi can't be such a beast, can he?"

Wu Xiajiu: "...what are you thinking, I just fell asleep and sweated all over."

"Oh, sweating is good. Sweating means that the disease is getting better." Fang Zi scratched his head silly and said, "I heard that your throat is much better."

Wu Xiajiu nodded, "Not very dumb, but still coughing."

A few of them sat together, Wu Xiajiu talked about what he dreamed after falling asleep, and planned to ask the waiter or that manager Bi later.

Lu Nandao, "Ask the waiter first, almost every question will be answered. We have done experiments before you came."

Tang Yunsi also nodded and said, "The waiters here are quite like NPCs. Manager Bi is okay. The waiters look like robots. Although they are strange, they can answer any questions."

Wu Xiajiu tilted his head, looked at the waiter standing at the edge of the lobby, his face was expressionless, without any emotion, a few passengers were asking questions, and they seemed to answer well, a few passengers Leave with a satisfied face.

After eating, Wu Xiajiu walked over, "Ask me something."

The waiter was quite polite, "Please tell me."

"Have you ever caught fire before?" Wu Xiajiu said while looking at the waiter's expression.

The waiter had a normal expression and didn't even move his brows. "No, our hotel has never caught fire. Please rest assured that the hotel's security system is very complete."

Wu Xiajiu frowned and rubbed his chin. He had never caught fire before, so was the dream he had just a dream?Or...is this something that happens later?

Everything in the dream was too real, and the world under the car, Wu Xiajiu couldn't believe that he would dream of these things for no reason.

After finishing speaking, the waiter asked if there was anything else, Wu Xiajiu shook his head and left.

"How is it?" Fang Zi and the others asked impatiently as soon as they came back.

Wu Xia said for a long time, "The waiter said that the hotel has never caught fire."

"Is it true, or is she lying?" Lu Nan thought, "How about I ask someone else later?"

Wu Xiajiu nodded and said, "That's fine, but it might just be a dream of mine, it doesn't mean anything..." Before he finished speaking, he coughed again, feeling uncomfortable beating his chest.

Shi Shang said, "Go up and rest for a while, let's find some clues here."

Others also persuaded Wu Xiajiu to go up. Wu Xiajiu finally nodded and left the lobby. Their room is on the second floor. They don’t need to take the elevator, just go up the stairs. After passing the corridor, Wu Xiajiu gathered his clothes, coughed, and turned on the lights.

Now no one came over, the corridor was empty, only the sound of his footsteps was heard, Wu Xiajiu couldn't help coughing a few times, but when he was coughing, there were suddenly another coughing, echoing him .

Wu Xiajiu: "..."

He looked vigilantly at the corner where the cough came from, and tightened his collar. Under the dim light, a shadow was first cast on the wall and the ground at the corner. The shadow was low and seemed to reach the waist of the person. If you haven't moved for a long time, if there is a shadow, it means that it is not a ghost.

Not long after, the owner of the shadow at the corner also came out. It was an old man sitting in a wheelchair. The old man probably had bad legs and feet, so he came slowly as he slid the wheelchair. That's why the shadows cast on the walls and the ground were like this. He was covered with a A thin blanket, he must have seen Wu Xiajiu, and stopped there to look at it after turning around.

Wu Xia stared at the old man's wrist for a long time. There was no train door knocker, so he seemed to be from a resort hotel.

"Hello." Wu Xiajiu nodded politely and coughed a few more times.

"The young man has a cold too?" The old man smiled at Wu Xiajiu and asked.

Wu Xiajiu nodded, "I'm about to go up to take medicine."

"Your body is your capital, so be careful." The old man also looked a little uncomfortable, coughed a few times, pushed the wheelchair over, Wu Xiajiu turned sideways, and planned to let the old man pass first.

At this moment, there was a rush of footsteps behind him, and Manager Bi's voice sounded, "Dad, why did you get down? Why didn't you call me?"

Manager Bi walked quickly to the old man and helped push the wheelchair. The old man said, "Aren't you busy? I can do it myself."

"You're still sick. What if I..." Before finishing speaking, Manager Bi stopped suddenly, looked at Wu Xiajiu, and said with a smile, "Are you going up?"

Wu Xiajiu nodded. Seeing that the two of them obviously had something to say, he nodded and turned to leave. Behind him, Manager Bi was still talking to the old man in a low voice, "...don't let...worry."

Don't let anyone worry about the vagueness of what he said. Wu Xia didn't hear it for a long time. He turned his head and looked back. Manager Bi was pushing the old man away. The wheelchair slid across the fluffy carpet without any sound.

After going up, Wu Xiajiu leaned against the head of the bed to rest. He had not slept well before Shi Shangzuo came back. Wu Xiajiu didn’t plan to sleep again. There were magazines in the room, so he found a random one. Spread out on the lap looked up.

The magazine should be from the past, it looks a bit worn out, Wu Xiajiu flipped through it, no surprises, but didn’t see any year and date on it, not even pictures of some characters, either buildings, landscape pictures, or Pure text description, no useful information.

But there are some places that are quite interesting, so it's time to pass the time.

Just when I was fascinated by watching, there was a loud "bang" outside the door, as if someone had slammed the door. At first, Wu Xiajiu thought it was some passenger who had quarreled with someone else, or the door was not opened. Stop, close it directly, but then, the sound kept coming, one after another, as if someone was slamming the door for fun.

Wu Xiajiu put down the magazine, lifted the quilt and planned to go out to have a look, but just as he put down one leg and got out of bed, Wu Xiajiu stopped, thought for a while and retracted his leg, covered the quilt and continued to read the magazine.

The sound of the door slamming continued, Wu Xiajiu thought while flipping through the magazine, just listen to it, he won’t go out, acting alone in horror movies is purely looking for death, he really regrets his life .

Wu Xiajiu gradually became deaf to outside affairs, and read the magazine seriously. I don't know how long it took, the sound of the door slamming outside stopped, and it was very quiet. Just when Wu Xiajiu turned a page again, the door suddenly opened. There was a knock on the door, which startled him. He raised his head and looked at the door calmly. From the gap at the bottom, it seemed that someone was standing outside the door.

There was no sound in the house, and there was no response. The knock on the door rang again, and the waiter's voice came from outside the door, "Sir, room service."

Wu Xia said for a long time, "I didn't call for service."

The waiter outside the door insisted, "Scheduled service, sir, please open the door."

Wu Xiajiu: "No, I don't want any service, you go."

There was no sound outside, as if he really listened to Wu Xiajiu's words and left, but Wu Xiajiu found that the light and shadow under the gap in the door did not change, and the people outside the door clearly did not leave.

The corridors of the entire resort are carpeted, except for the bright tiles in the lobby, so walking on the carpet, you generally can't hear footsteps.

Realizing this, Wu Xiajiu suddenly straightened his body as if remembering something. He remembered hearing footsteps outside the door in his sleep, which were very clear and didn't sound like stepping on a carpet...

How is this going?Didn't the things in the dream happen in the resort hotel?

Just as he was thinking of being lost in thought, Wu Xiajiu suddenly heard a rattling sound coming from outside the door, as if someone was trying to unlock the door outside, but all the hotel doors were accessed by swiping cards. When entering, Shi Shangzuo even checked the door lock. The quality is very good, if you don't have a key card, you can't get in at all.

Wu Xiajiu was not worried that people outside would be able to open it, but he was very curious why this person would do this. He got up gently, took out a knife from his backpack, and quietly walked to the door. There was a peephole on the door. Wu Xiajiu Lean over and look out the door.

There was a person lying outside, bent over and studying the door lock, Wu Xiajiu frowned, and found that this person was wearing blue and white striped clothes, like a hospital gown, just thinking about it, the person outside suddenly straightened up, Facing Wu Xiajiu directly, his face was pale, with a beard hanging, his hair was sharp as if he hadn't washed it for several days, and his expression was crazy, his eyes were crazy and there was a little excitement, and he was studying the thing in his hand with his head slightly lowered. .

Putting his hands down a little bit, Wu Xiajiu didn't see it for a long time, he only saw the excited light in the man's eyes, but it gave the impression that it was very abnormal, and when he straightened up, Wu Xiajiu was sure , He was wearing a hospital gown.

At this time, the people outside suddenly stopped what they were doing, and looked suspiciously at the cat's eye on the door. Although he knew that the people outside could not see the inside, Wu Xiajiu subconsciously moved away. The person already lay on the cat's eye, his bloodshot eyes were staring inside.

The knock on the door sounded again, and it was still the waiter's polite voice, "Guest, please open the door, room service, guest..."

There is nothing wrong with this voice alone, but when it is placed on the person outside, it feels weird no matter what. Wu Xiajiu felt chills and did not respond, but the people outside seemed to be impatient, and the sound of knocking on the door gradually became weaker. He became anxious, "Open the door quickly!" Even the tone of his voice changed a little.

Wu Xiajiu: It’s not open, you can come in if you have the ability.

"Ahem." His voice became uncomfortable again, he ignored the people outside the door, turned around and walked to the table, poured a glass of hot water to drink, at this moment, the knocking on the door suddenly stopped, Wu Xia I thought for a long time that this person was going to tinker with the door lock again, so I didn't pay much attention to it, but the next moment, there was a beep beside the door, and the door was opened!

Wu Xia didn't have time to put down the cup, and rushed to the door with a knife in one hand.

"Jiujiu, are you going to murder your husband?" As soon as Shi Shangzuo came in, he saw Wu Xiajiu rushing towards here with a knife, he quickly dodged and hugged him.

Wu Xiajiu heaved a sigh of relief and almost stopped. He spilled all the hot water in his water glass, looked up at Shi Shangzuo, "Did you see anyone outside the door when you came here just now?" go.

Shi Shangzuo frowned, and wiped the water on his hands, "No, there's no one outside, what happened to you?"

Just as Wu Xiajiu was about to answer, he heard Fang Zi's voice coming from outside, "Hey, Xiao Jiujiu, even if you and Brother Shi quarreled, don't use the knife, just talk if you have something to say."

Wu Xiajiu: "..."

He looked down at the postures of the two, well, it was indeed quite misleading.
