The light was very dim, and the most eye-catching thing in the room was the huge rocking chair. It was different from the ones I had seen when I was a child. An old man was sitting on the rocking chair. His gray hair was mixed with black silk, and the folds of his eyelids drooped.

The chair swayed back and forth with his body movements.

Seeing Gu Hankong coming in, he raised his head and smiled kindly at her, looking very familiar and kind. Gu Hankong thought for a while before he remembered that it was the grandpa he had seen in the photos that his grandma had kept.

His skin lacked the slightest luster, as pale and dim as his eyes, and the sound of footsteps outside was getting closer.

Gu Hankong looked around, followed the direction pointed by the old man and hid in the cabinet.

"Strange, Rhubarb keeps barking."

"It seems to be facing this room."

"Hurry up and get out, grandma won't let you in."

The voices of the four children gradually approached.

It's dark inside, and because it hasn't been opened for a long time, it smells of wood mold and damp.Gu Hankong looked out through the gap in the wooden cabinet and saw four children walking in. The shadows of these four people fell on the mirror, but the grandfather in the middle of the room did not show his figure in the mirror, only shaking chair.

After the kids walked in, the chair stopped shaking.

"Let's go out, I always feel weird in this room, as if something is staring at me." The young Gu Hankong was still wearing a floral skirt, and his exposed arms were all twitched. Layers of goosebumps.

Gu Hankong looked at "myself" strangely.Unexpectedly, her intuition was very strong since she was a child, because at this time, grandpa was indeed staring at the child.

"I'll go out to see rhubarb first, it's a bit strange here today."

The other children didn't heed the advice, but were very interested in the pile of junk that was piled up in the house.

One of the boys pulled out a toy that looked like a crystal ball.The other is a toy car.Another little girl took a worn-out doll and hid it on her body.

Gu Hankong watched calmly as the three children hid the things they brought and walked out.

She didn't even remember such a thing happened when she was a child. She still had some impressions of the box in the corner. Gu Hankong remembered that there was a box locked with a big padlock. Grandma would never let others see the things inside.She had always thought it was a relic of her grandfather, but she didn't expect it to be something like a toy.

Wait...those toys.

Gu Hankong opened the cabinet door and walked out. Just because she had shifted her gaze, when she came out again, the person sitting on the chair had disappeared.A quiet emerald green ring is placed on the quiet seat.

Gu Hankong felt familiar, so he picked it up involuntarily.

Didn't receive a reminder - but this one is very similar to the one Yu Chen has been wearing.It is exactly the same.

Could it be that Yu Chen was actually her childhood playmate?Gu Hankong really doesn't remember this.

Gu Hankong walked out and stood cautiously in the corner.At this time, Rhubarb had disappeared, as if he had been taken away by himself when he was a child.

But she saw another acquaintance, and once again carefully hid her figure to a corner.

The three children were running out of the yard when they ran into their grandma who was rushing back.In a hurry, one of the boys bumped into the grandma.The car he was secretly hiding on his body also fell to the ground.Also bumped into the little girl who was walking at the end.

The two put away their things in a panic, but accidentally took the wrong thing.

The girl took the car, the boy took the doll.But because of guilty conscience, both of them said hello to their grandma and left in a hurry.

Grandma's face flashed thoughtfully, she put down the things in her hands, and walked quickly to the big house.When he came out, his face was very gloomy.

In Gu Hankong's impression, grandma has always been a very kind old man.He doesn't have a big temper, even if he is bullied, he still believes that suffering is a blessing.

But now, her complexion seemed to be condensed with dark clouds and thick ink, and the color of iron blue was even worse than the bark on the side of the yard.

Gu Hankong only knew that the children who played with her died in the end.

A flash of inspiration flashed in Gu Hankong's mind, and he suddenly thought of something terrible.

The first boy was taken away by his mother, the second boy was drowned in water, and the third girl was in a car accident.

The props they choose... dolls, crystal balls, cars.

And just got it wrong.It just corresponds to the death of these people one by one.

Thinking of this, she only felt chills all over.

I don't know if returning those props will prevent them from dying.This thought flashed through Gu Hankong's heart.

She took advantage of her grandma's abduction to the backyard, followed the gate and walked out of the courtyard.

But when she came out, she was dumbfounded.

Gu Hankong rubbed her aching head, she couldn't remember the way outside at all.

He obviously lived here for a short time, and the loss of memory only happened later.

Maybe Grandma knows something.In order to avoid staying too long and attracting the attention of Rhubarb outside the door, Gu Hankong walked back to the small courtyard again.

Grandma seemed to be talking to her young self.

Gu Hankong felt sensitively that something must happen tonight.After changing the perspective, she found that the direction of the whole story had completely changed.A faint suspicion rose in my heart.

Before going through so many dungeons, she never dared to think about her grandma, and never suspected that such a kind old man was actually the mastermind behind the scenes.

Gu Hankong still felt that he was thinking too much.

I don't know when this dungeon will end.She looked at the time on the bracelet and found that the time had been fixed when she entered the mirror, that is to say, the scenes she experienced did not take up the task time at all.

Think of it as watching a replay of a scene.Special scene playback.

At night, grandma sat in the yard with a dazed little Gu Hankong. She was wearing a white robe that could only be seen on TV, and she had written words on it with cinnabar. All the white cloth banners hung from the surrounding eaves. On the yard are some strange piled up shelves, and even a temporary altar. The ones on those shelves are a bit like the two pointed sticks that Gu Hankong saw in the cornfield, and they were inserted into the ground around them. When you put it on, you can clearly see that this thing presents a certain regular distribution.

She hid in the big room with chairs. The view here was good, but for some reason, it gave Gu Hankong an inexplicable sense of security.

This time she heard what grandma said clearly.

"Go get a cock."

"what?"

"Forget it, let's go together. In order to welcome the guests, we need to choose a strong rooster." Grandma added.

Little Gu Hankong still nodded in a ignorant manner.

Gu Hankong, who was hiding in the room, was startled at this moment.She took the ring out of her bracelet.

She still remembered the story about Yu Chen.In the story, his name is Xiao Huang, and he was judged by the system as a true story.If the dog is called Rhubarb, then it is not unusual for the chicken to be called Xiao Huang.No wonder Yu Chen kept asking her if she remembered.

How could she remember such a thing.

Gu Hankong felt extremely complicated for a while.

She had a hunch that more things that would subvert her cognition would happen tonight.

The child followed behind grandma with a mournful face and hugged the vigilant little rooster.Gu Hankong could feel his own fear at that time, as if he empathized with him.Grandma's back was straight, the boning knife in her hand looked very scary, the wind was blowing under her feet, and her robe was about to fly off.

It's just that his face has been gloomy like a dead body.

Gu Hankong became nervous, and his eyes fell on the rooster.

His coat color is bright, his eyes are black and slightly blue - probably Yu Wubiao, this time is simply a world of difference.

Gu Hankong could see that it was actually as scared as himself.But still nestled in his arms with a lewd look.

It's ridiculous.Probably because he didn't know that he was going to be killed and bled.

When Yu Chen was telling the story, Gu Hankong always felt that it was slaughtered by a girl to eat meat.Now it seems that it may be a little bit better.He was sacrificed.

Maybe tonight is the key to Yu Chen's rebirth.

Grandma asked the child to hold the chicken and sit in the middle of the formation.Then he chanted the mantra while dancing.

As the incantation continued, the banner hanging directly in front of the direction where grandma's knife was pointing trembled from time to time.

When all the soul-calling flags are windless, they will automatically rise.The knife suddenly pointed at himself sitting in the center of the formation.

The child was already frightened, sitting still like a puppet, seemed to have passed out, but also didn't seem to, because her back was facing Gu Hankong, so she couldn't be sure.

The next moment, grandma grabbed the rooster's legs and picked up the chicken.

Xiao Huang flickered his wings feebly and struggled.But because the key point was restrained, it was completely useless.

Gu Hankong hesitated for a moment, she really didn't know whether she should stop it, or if she could stop it.

Dying once is terrible.She should save Yu Chen due to emotion and reason.But what if history was changed because of her rescue?Yu Chen can't be a human being, but has to be a rooster forever.That would probably be a disservice.

Gu Hankong swallowed, and decided to hold back his urge - as a result, she already knew, so could the process get worse?

However, this scene is actually more tragic than it seems.

Fortunately, the child himself seemed to have passed out and didn't see this.

The rooster's throat was slit, and the blood was swirled and sprinkled on the spiritual banners hanging all around.When the blood fell on it, it burned one after another.

All the remaining blood was put into the empty bowl prepared on the desk.The steaming white foam can still be seen under the pale moonlight.

How much blood can a chick have? After a while, Xiao Huang stopped moving and closed his small eyes.

Grandma threw it away.

At the very center, Gu Hankong felt his scalp go numb just by looking at it.

From her fainted body, a female ghost crawled out. Since her back was facing Gu Hankong, she couldn't see her appearance clearly.

The reason why he was so sure that it was a female ghost was because Gu Hankong had seen this ghost in the mirror.Rotting skin, dry hair, and a hollow mouth.

The female ghost twisted and struggled and slowly crawled out of her body.Step by step, he climbed towards the blood bowl placed on the high platform.The whole head was soaked in it and he drank it.A very clear voice seemed to ring in his ears. The pale body and the bright red blood of the chicken stood out against the eyes. I don't know if it was a psychological effect or something. Gu Hankong felt that the female ghost was drinking her blood.

Under the moonlight, the grandma who had been gloomy all day finally showed a smile on her face.

It's just that the smile is weird, like the smile of a dead person deliberately drawn by a makeup artist just to leave a posthumous photo.

Grandma said she wanted to entertain a guest, so it could be this guest.
