Chapter 54: Bones
Red Handkerchief ......
Wei Wuying!
A name popped through my mind.
At this moment, the head under the handkerchief suddenly rolled and turned towards me.
Through the handkerchief, I can vaguely see the facial features of the human head.
What's even more terrifying is that I found that his eyes were staring straight at me!
I was so frightened that I wanted to scream, but my throat felt like I had a hemp kernel in my throat, and I couldn't make a sound at all.
The intense horror made me can't help but want to escape, but as soon as I started to escape, I found an even more terrifying 'reality' - my body was completely out of control.
Because, now I and the person in front of me are in the same state of dismemberment, and all I can feel is just the visual impact and the thinking of the brain!
The panic was at its limit, but it calmed me down.
Anyway, everyone only has a dead head, half a catty to eight taels, who is afraid of whom?
When this ridiculous idea swirled in my mind, the head in front of me actually spoke!
Through the light handkerchief, you can see that this person's appearance is very delicate.
I could tell that he was a man, but his delicate features had the grace of a woman.
The two thin lips under the handkerchief slowly opened, and they made a painful sound with difficulty:
"I don't want to hurt anyone...... I want my bones...... My bones ......"
'What bones?' I asked in my heart. Because I still can't make a sound.
The human head seemed to want to say something, but suddenly the face became distorted. The eyebrows and eyes that were deformed by the tight wrinkles, and the corners of his mouth that kept twitching, all showed that he was suffering greatly at this moment!
Just when I was extremely confused, a gust of wind suddenly blew in front of me.
The handkerchief on my head was blown up by the wind and fell on my face impartially.
The translucent handkerchief did not completely obscure my vision, on the contrary, the corner of my eye saw through the light mesh veil, and I actually saw the other side of the ear, and I don't know when, there was an extra human face!
The face was so close to me that I couldn't make out his face, but I could see that he was grinning, showing his white teeth, and was approaching me little by little......
"Ahh
I finally couldn't control it, and struggled to squeeze a miserable howl out of my throat.
His body shook violently, and then he suddenly opened his eyes.
"Xu Xu!" An anxious sound ringed in my ears.
I gasped for breath and calmed down for a moment, only to realize that I seemed to be lying in bed.
The room was pitch black, and when I squinted in the direction where the voice came from, there was really a human face above the side of my ear. The position of the face is exactly the same as the position of the last face that appeared in the dream!
"Are you alright?"
The soft voice sounded again, and my body trembled again, and finally I came back to my senses completely.
I should be lying on my own bed, and it was Xu Jie who was looking at me eagerly.
Xu Jie helped me wipe the cold sweat on my face and asked softly, "Did you have a nightmare?" ”
"Hmmm......"
I felt that my throat was dry, and I turned over and sat up, only to find that my whole body was soaked in cold sweat.
I took the water cup at the bedside and drank a few big sips, and finally calmed down.
I wiped my head and asked Xu Jie what time it was.
Xu Jie said it was almost four o'clock.
My mouth was so dry that I had to pour another breath of water.
Xu Jie put the quilt together for me, saying that after I drank too much, I fell asleep in the rattan chair, and it was the blind man who carried me upstairs.
"Do you have something on your mind? Why else why drink so much? Xu Jie asked.
"I didn't ...... It's fine, but I'm a little tired. ”
I'm really tired, otherwise I wouldn't have slept so long.
Thinking of the scene in my dream, I suddenly remembered something.
I asked Xu Jie to go back to sleep, hurriedly put on my clothes, and couldn't find the backpack left and right, so I asked Xu Jie where the bag was.
"Downstairs." Xu Jie said sneeringly, "I...... I came up on my own, and I wanted to go down and help you get your bag, but ...... But you hold on to me. ”
"The ...... who came up by myself" I felt distressed for a while, and I took her into my arms.
Although Xu Jie is paralyzed, she is still a King Kong corpse in essence, unless I carry her up and down the stairs, others can't hold her. If she wanted to go upstairs, she could only drag her inconvenient body up with two hands......
I wanted to just guard her, but a strong feeling of uneasiness spread more and more in the bottom of my heart.
"Good, you sleep a little longer, I'll go out and run some errands."
I went downstairs, took my coat and put it on, grabbed my backpack and wanted to go out, but suddenly found that the zipper of my backpack was half open.
It was an inconspicuous little detail, but for some reason, I was stunned.
When I opened the backpack, my heart was cold.
Due to special professional reasons, the things in my bag seem to be messy, but they all have their own fixed positions.
Only in this way can I respond to emergencies as quickly as possible anytime, anywhere.
However, at the moment, several items in the bag are not in their original places.
Someone rummaged through my bag!
Xu Jie didn't have to rummage through my bag, and she knew my habits, and after helping me clean up, she would put things back in their place.
In addition to Xu Jie, today's ...... No, the only people who came to the house yesterday were Dashuanghe ...... Blind.
I really didn't want to think deeply about it, so I checked that everything was there, and as soon as I put it in place, I went out of the house.
Coming to the open space between No. 18 and No. 31, I took out the peach charm of the word 'Fu' from my bag.
I didn't make any other moves, but there was a sudden chill from the peach talisman.
In the next second, the surroundings seemed to be foggy in an instant, and the sky and the earth became chaotic.
And in the original open space, there was a gluttonous and guarded ancient building!
"The peach charm is really the key ...... in and out of the station"
I muttered, put away the peach talisman, and stepped forward to push open the door of the inn.
Seeing the situation in the post station, I couldn't help but be stunned.
In the corner of the station, a man dressed in black and with a head and face that looked like he had been burned by fire was sitting at a round table and pouring himself a drink.
When the man in black heard the movement, he just glanced at me, seemed to frown slightly, and then said in a deep voice:
"As the owner of the station, you have to look like a boss. You dress so casually, once or twice is nothing, too many times, no good. ”
My mind, which I had barely calmed down not long ago, was in an uproar again.
couldn't help but step forward and ask, "Are you Xu Ronghua?" ”
The man in black seemed stunned for a moment, and then nodded slightly.
For a moment, I couldn't tell what it was like.
Countless questions poured into my mind at the same time, but I didn't know where to start.
Before I could finish my struggle, the man in black said slowly: "You came here at this time, you won't come here to find me." It's almost the fifth watch, and there is not much time, so go and do what you have to do. I'm not going to go, I'm always there. ”
I took one last look at him, bit my lip and nodded, and walked briskly into the bookkeeper.
Ji Yayun or 'Xiaoya' are not there.
The furnishings in the ledger do not seem to have changed from the last time they left.
Thinking that time was running out, I walked straight to the back of the desk and sat down, took the yin-yang mirror on the table and placed it in front of me.
Seeing that the bronze mirror did not react, he thought about it and took out the red handkerchief that he had been keeping with him from the inner pocket hidden in his jacket.
The red handkerchief was held up in front of the bronze mirror, and the originally somewhat blurry mirror surface gradually became transparent.
In the mirror, an unbelievable picture emerged......
