Chapter 77 The Red Line

Those faces appeared very suddenly, one second Fang Li was still dealing with Qiqi, the next second Qiqi was pointing behind him, her pupils dilated, she was too frightened to speak for a while.

"Face...face...face!"

Fang Li turned his head, his whole heart trembled in fright.

I saw the wall behind him, and I don't know when it started to inflate like a balloon.

At the same time, what he saw were human faces hidden in the wall.They all have facial features, expressions of anger or grief.

Faced with this horrific scene, Fang Li was still dazed, while Qiqi had already run away screaming.

Fang Li also ran out, but before he ran, he still remembered to take his and Zhu Yicheng's bags.

The corridor turned into a running track, and the three of them sprinted for [-] meters in the corridor.

Presumably, those faces were peeled off one by one by those hands that love to peel people's faces.

I just don't know how many people have to be killed with so many faces.

Fang Li's head was dizzy, and his fever made his steps sluggish, every step was like stepping on soft cotton.

Xiang Luping thought about it, and when Fang Li ran past him, he deliberately bumped into Fang Li.

Fang Li staggered a few steps, and the faces came behind him with their mouths open.

Fortunately, he quickly stabilized his figure and rushed out of the courtyard with his bag in his arms.

After running out of the courtyard, he had time to look behind him.

Those faces didn't catch up, and after realizing that they couldn't catch anyone, they slowly retreated into the room.

Fang Li was afraid for a while, especially when he thought of sleeping in the same room with these things for the past two days, he was even more frightened.

There must be something wrong with their room, but I don't know why it seems to be only their room.

It's a joy to be able to escape from birth, but Xiang Luping just wants to add trouble to others at this time.

He licked his lower gums with the tip of his tongue, probably thinking that he was wild like this, "Are you not dead?"

Fang Li just glanced at him indifferently, did not answer, but got up and patted his buttocks, and walked to the hall on his own.

Xiang Luping was rather unwilling, and shouted at him after he got up: "Hey! Someone in your team came in with a prop. It is something that can determine life and death at a critical moment. You don't know it?"

Fang Li didn't seem to hear this sentence, and left here without stopping.

Xiang Luping spat at his back, and waited for him to walk away before talking to his girlfriend about the accident that just happened.

"Why haven't you asked me to come out? The plan has been revealed?"

Qiqi: "..." She didn't know what to say for a while, whether to say that the plan was exposed or that their plan was wrong from the beginning, and they didn't like women at all.

After thinking about it, she just nodded with a complicated expression and didn't say much.

This town is not big, but there are more than 2000 people in the town, and the scale is not small.

Guilou was in the east of the city, and they found a pharmacy only after running to the west of the city.

The money for the medicine was borrowed from the servants of Guilou. When they came here, they had no money for consumption.

Fortunately, when the servants heard that Fang Li was ill, they all actively expressed that they could do a little bit, and also pointed out the way to the pharmacy for Zhu Yicheng and others.

"People here don't seem to get sick very often. There is only one pharmacy in such a big town." Zhao Xiaotong stood still in front of the door, and then said, "It's still so free."

The owner of the pharmacy was doing some calculations, and the only boy in the shop was holding a pestle and pounding the herbs.

After Zhu Yicheng stepped forward to explain Fang Li's situation, the boss turned around and grabbed two sets of medicine for him.

"Just make soup and take it. Remember to sweat a lot." He paused, looked at the faces of the three people in front of him, and asked, "Are you all foreigners?"

Zhu Yicheng said, "What? Do we have words written on our faces?"

The boss was amused by him, and while wrapping up the medicine, he said: "There are no words, but the face looks unfamiliar. I have been here since I was a child, and I have seen everyone in the town."

Zhu Yicheng wanted to speak, but was stopped by Zhao Xiaotong.Zhao Xiaotong looked at the boss and said, "We came to Guilou to listen to an opera."

The boss's subordinates paused slightly, but did not speak.

Zhao Xiaotong continued: "You have been here for so many years, can we ask you for someone?"

Boss: "Who?"

Zhao Xiaotong smiled and said, "Awen from Guilou."

Zhu Yicheng understood what she meant belatedly, so he shut his mouth obediently, and gave her a thumbs up with his hands hanging on both sides of his trousers.

The boss stopped what he was doing and let out a long sigh.

"Awen, she is a poor girl." When he talked about Awen, there was a nostalgic expression on his face.

Although the actor industry has always thought that the social status is quite low, but in this town with a relatively open folk style, people actually don't have much prejudice against this industry.There is almost no discrimination against a person because he sings or helps others.

But even so, under the protection of Mr. Gui, Awen seldom appeared on stage, and she never went out to the streets.

Except for singing, almost no one has seen Awen's original appearance.

This puts a veil of mystery on this girl.Therefore, there were several versions of the saying about Awen's facelessness.

Among them, the most widely spread is that she is extremely beautiful, and everyone who has seen her true face is overwhelmed by her appearance.

Hearing this, Zhu Yicheng couldn't help asking: "What about the truth?"

He always felt that the so-called legends were not very reliable.

Sure enough, the boss shook his head: "Appearance is secondary. That Guiwen was born weak and sick, and could not enjoy the cool wind or be frightened, so she stayed at home and did not have contact with outsiders. You all know the story about her and the scholar, right? "

Zhu Yicheng asked curiously, "The scholar who caused her to hang herself?"

The boss nodded, then shook his head again.

He nodded and shook his head, making the other three stunned.

"Where did she hang herself? Those storytellers will always exaggerate." The boss reached out and patted the wooden table, and the words he said were like thunder on the ground, "She is clearly suffering from depression!"

Although Gui Wen is young, she has many admirers because of her good voice and slender figure.

When they reach the age of 16, the matchmaker who comes to the door to propose marriage has the meaning of stepping on the threshold of Guilou.

There were too many admirers, so Mr. Gui simply closed the door to see no visitors, and all the matchmakers who proposed marriage were shut down.

In this, it is not known whether Guiwen does not want to leave Guilou and her brother, or Mr. Gui looks down on those courtiers and is unwilling to marry his sister off.

But what everyone knows is that the relationship between the siblings is very close, and no one can do without the other.

Until the appearance of the third person.

The third person is the scholar.

"During the period after the scholar left, Mr. Gui stopped performing operas, and the gate of the Gui Tower was closed. People from there ran to my pharmacy every day, grabbing medicines to relieve depression and stagnation."

Having said that, the little boy making medicine next to him stopped and interjected, "Is it Miss Gui's death day in a few days?"

"Yeah, it's been ten years." The boss sighed, "Everyone went to see her funeral, and I went too. Across the crowd, I saw that Mr. Gui seemed to have aged a lot overnight. Gui Wen's death It was a big blow to him..."

Zhao Xiaotong did not continue to listen to his memory, but interrupted: "Where is Miss Gui buried?"

"East of the city, there is a piece of land with good Fengshui—oh, let's put it this way, it's near the Gui Tower, one mile east of the Gui Tower."

Zhao Xiaotong said, "Thank you."

The boss waved to her, meaning that there is no need to thank you for such a trivial matter.

After taking the medicine, the three returned to Guilou by the same route.

Zhu Yicheng originally wanted to go straight to the courtyard where they lived, but when he passed the hall, he saw Fang Li who was sleeping with his head tilted on the chair in the hall.

He woke Fang Li up and asked in confusion, "Why did you come here?"

Fang Li had just woken up, and before he could turn his head around, Zhu Yicheng danced and told the new clues they had just found in the pharmacy, as if he was pouring beans.

Fang Li remained silent until he finished speaking.

"Do you have any thoughts after listening?" Zhu Yicheng asked.

Fang Li frowned: "So Gui Wen didn't commit suicide?"

"It's hard to say," Zhao Xiaotong found a chair and sat down, and analyzed rationally: "After all, we can't be sure that what the pharmacy owner said is the truth."

"That's true."

"And if she didn't commit suicide, who is the skinning ghost in the house?"

The two versions of the story make everyone's thinking seem to be trapped in a maze.

"How about that?" Fang Li took the lead to break the silence. He frowned slightly and thought: "Find some time, let's go to Gui Wen's grave."

Looking for a proposal made several people show hesitation.

Yu Jiaxi considered her words carefully and said, "Is this too risky?"

When she brushed the dungeon alone, she always adhered to the belief of "survive to 99", but after meeting them, she frantically tried every day on the edge of danger.

Fang Li said: "We can wait and see from a distance first to confirm that there is no danger before going to the grave. Although there are many ghosts in the dungeon, we will never encounter situations such as fraudulent corpses."

This is true, they may be able to meet Awen's ghost in the cemetery, but they will not see Awen's fraudulent corpse.

Several people discussed it and agreed to the proposal.

"By the way, you haven't said anything yet, why aren't you waiting for us in the house, what are you doing here?" Zhu Yicheng suddenly remembered this.

Fang Li then told him what happened just now, and focused on describing the wall full of human faces.

Zhu Yicheng felt bad immediately, but he still asked, "You just ran out like this? Didn't they chase you?"

"I chased them," Fang Li said. "I ran fast. They seemed unable to chase them out of the yard. They chased them back to the gate of the yard."

After thinking about it, he still reminded: "You have to be careful with Xiang Luping."

He still remembered that when he was running for his life, he was deliberately bumped by that person.This means that he reacts quickly and has a great life, otherwise he would have been cold inside.

Zhu Yicheng scratched his head, "Who is Xiang Luping?"

Fang Li said, "It's the chicken nest head that stole things in the morning."

"Oh——" Zhu Yicheng responded with a long answer, "Okay, I know, anyway, he doesn't look like a good thing. Bullying people is bullying the girl."

He just muttered something casually. After hearing this, Fang Li glanced at Yu Jiaxi calmly.

It's not that he didn't hear the phrase "Someone in your team came in with props" that Xiang Luping shouted before, but he just didn't feel the need to doubt his friend just because of a word from an outsider.

Although he believed that Xiang Luping didn't lie to him - after all, it was too obvious, the doll with the name on it was very likely to be a prop.

But Yu Jiaxi didn't say it, so she must have her own reasons, after all, everyone has their own secrets.

Isn't the thing hanging around his neck also a prop of unknown origin?

With such a release, they dare not go into that room to sleep again.

Where to sleep at night has become a big problem.

In the end, it was Zhao Xiaotong who suggested that, in this case, let Zhu Yi take them to bring a few quilts to their room and make the floor together.

Although it is definitely uncomfortable to sleep on the floor in this cold weather, it is safer than sleeping in the room where the situation is frequent.

While eating dinner, another person knocked over the soup bowl in front of him.

This person is none other than Xiang Luping's girlfriend, Qiqi.

Fang Li saw sharply that when Qiqi knocked over the soup bowl, the smile on the butler's face deepened significantly.

At that moment, what he showed was a happy smile from the heart, not the usual polite smile.

Qiqi hurriedly took out a tissue and wiped the soup stains on her pants, Xiang Luping asked her in a low voice, "Why are you so careless?"

"I don't know..." Qiqi was a little aggrieved, she said, "I just think that glass cup is so beautiful, I can't help but want to take it over and have a closer look."

While they were communicating in low voices, the housekeeper had already arrived behind the two of them.

"Please follow me here." He held a cane, his voice was old, and he took Kiki to the back room in the same way as yesterday.

I have to say that although Xiang Luping is a scumbag, he still cares about his girlfriend.

When Qiqi was taken away by the housekeeper, he stood up and wanted to follow her to the back room.

But the housekeeper stopped him, looked at him with a pair of ancient eyes and said: "Please wait here."

Xiang Luping made a protest, but in front of the housekeeper, it was obviously invalid.

He didn't even change his expression, he just stood in front of Xiang Luping and repeated the phrase "please wait here".

During the stalemate, Qiqi had already changed and came out from behind the screen.

The servant girl brought her a red dress with a wide hem that completely wrapped her legs.

Seeing that his girlfriend came back safely, Xiang Luping stopped confronting the housekeeper. He suppressed his anger and gave the housekeeper a hard look.

"How do you feel?" he asked his girlfriend.

Qiqi stared at him for a while, and after a few seconds, she replied, "It's pretty good."

Xiang Luping felt relieved, but he didn't notice his girlfriend's eyes staring straight ahead like glass beads.

He didn't notice, but Fang Li noticed something unusual.

Qiqi's eyes were very lively before, but after following the housekeeper into the back room, she seemed to be a different person.

The eyes are dull and lifeless, and it looks like a puppet doll.

This appearance was somewhat similar to Xiao Ke from yesterday. He glanced at Xiao Ke from the corner of his eye calmly, and saw Xiao Ke eating in silence, seemingly normal.

Fang Li noticed something unusual, so he signaled the other three to pay more attention to Qiqi with his eyes.

Zhu Yicheng looked at him, he was puzzled at first, and then made an expression of enlightenment.

"..." For some reason, Fang Li actually had the feeling that his son was finally promising at this moment.

As a result, he was slapped in the face in the next second, and Zhu Yicheng insisted on interpreting his hint as he remembered the dish in the middle of Qiqi's table, and got up quite actively to serve him.

Fang Li rubbed his eyebrows, he couldn't bear to look directly at his silly son.

Zhu Yicheng didn't know that his image in Fang Li's mind was that of a fool, so he got up and went to pick up some food, and the hem of his clothes brushed across the table, bringing down the soup bowl in front of him——

The corner of the housekeeper's mouth began to rise, and the joy was unabashedly revealed.

If Fang Li had time to look at his expression at this time, he might be able to read the word "double kill" from his face.

Even Zhao Xiaotong subconsciously covered his mouth, suffocating his breath.

With a clang, the bowl rolled to the ground and immediately shattered into pieces of broken porcelain all over the floor.

As for the soup, thanks to Fang Li's timely response, the moment the bowl was overturned, the tablecloth was lifted immediately, and the soup was wrapped in the tablecloth.

Although a few drops still spilled out, they didn't spill on people, but on the ground.

Fang Li let out a long breath of relief.

The corners of the butler's mouth collapsed, but he still walked over and asked a little bit unwillingly: "Sir, maybe you want to come with me to adjust your clothes?"

Zhu Yicheng's reflexive arc finally delayed going online at this time, the desire to survive made him understand something, so he replied decisively: "No, I don't want to."

housekeeper:"……"

He looked extremely disappointed, but Zhu Yicheng really didn't need to change clothes.

Zhu Yi got off the ride, and belatedly felt that he might have brushed shoulders with death just now.

After dinner, everyone went back to the yard together.

Everyone went to different places during the day, but it was clear that no one wanted to sit down and share what they found.

After returning to the courtyard, they went back to their room. Taking this opportunity, Fang Li and Zhu Yicheng slipped into Zhao Xiaotong's room.

The original room is definitely not daring to go back, everyone sleeps together, it's safer.

As for the difference between men and women, according to Zhao Xiaotong's original words, one of the two is famous and the other is old-fashioned, but in fact they don't even have full hair, so there is no difference between men and women.

This was accidentally heard by Zhu Yicheng, and Zhu Yicheng jumped up to argue with her on the spot.

"What do you mean the hair has not grown? I became an adult 800 years ago, okay?"

Fang Li thought it was quite funny. In his eyes, these two people were simply a pair of happy friends. Although they were usually noisy, they were full of energy.

After Zhu Yicheng made the bed, he saw that Fang Li was still standing by the window, so he called him over to sleep.

After calling twice, Fang Li didn't move, but turned around and called him over.

Zhu Yicheng walked over suspiciously, and then Fang Li pressed his head and turned his eyes away. Along the open window, he saw Xiang Luping and Qiqi who lived diagonally opposite.

Xiang Luping held the basin and said that he was going out to get some hot water. Qiqi said that she was a little tired and wanted to sit and rest for a while.

So Xiang Luping closed the door and went out alone.

Although the door is closed, their window is open.

Xiang Luping walked past their house with a basin, Fang Li immediately closed the window gently, and pulled Zhu Yicheng to squat down together.

After the footsteps on the corridor were far away, they stood up again, opened the window and looked out.

As a result, at this glance, from the opposite window, Qiqi was taking off her clothes with her back to them.

Zhu Yi covered his eyes like a conditioned reflex, and wanted to help Fang Li cover them by the way: "Don't look at evil, don't look at evil."

Fang Li brushed his hand away and said, "Wait."

When he glanced over just now, he seemed to see something...

Zhu Yicheng let out an "ah" and stopped seeing no evil, and leaned his head over to watch with Fang Li.

Xiang Luping's house was about 20 meters away from them, neither too far nor too close. With Fang Li's current eyesight, he could even see a few grasses growing in front of their porch.

He watched Qiqi take off the blouse with her back to them, the skin on her shoulders was exposed little by little, and at a glance it was a large area of ​​snow white.

On that snow-white skin, a red line appeared particularly abrupt.

The line started from her neck, continued all the way down, and finally submerged under the long skirt.
