Chapter 157 Desperate Situation
Chapter 157 Desperate Situation
"Squeak——"
The door closed on its own.
The house was very ordinary, but it seemed that no one had lived in it for a long time. The stairs were covered with dust, and there was no furniture in the house. There was only a tattered wardrobe in the corner.
The closet door was ajar, which caused a lot of psychological pressure on people, as if... something was hiding in the closet and peeking.
This is the general situation on the first floor, which is clear at a glance.
Bai Yanliang decided to take a look upstairs along the stairs.
"Will you go up with me, or wait on the first floor..." Bai Yanliang turned around and said.
However, there was nothing behind him...
Feng Xiuxue disappeared.
Warning signs suddenly surged into Bai Yanliang's heart. What just happened?
Feng Xiuxue probably didn't do anything. He was the one who even opened the door.
But now, she has indeed disappeared...
Where has she gone?
A vague chill came from around him, and Bai Yanliang knew that he could not stay where he was for any longer...
He no longer thought about Feng Xiuxue and went straight to the second floor. To his surprise, the layout of the second floor was almost exactly the same as the first floor. It was dilapidated, covered with dust, and had no furniture. Even except for the lack of a wardrobe, Bai Yanliang had nothing. I can't tell the difference between the second floor and the first floor.
Of course, Feng Xiuxue is not on the second floor either.
Could it be that...she has been...
Bai Yanliang had to make such a conjecture.
The time now is... Bai Yanliang took out his phone and took a look.
However, besides time, he unexpectedly discovered that there was a signal on his mobile phone!
You know, in the fog, there will be no signal at all for mobile phones, but in this world, there is a signal.
Bai Yanliang immediately dialed Feng Xiuxue's phone number.
Soon, the call was connected, and Feng Xiuxue's voice rang from the other end of the phone.
"Hello."
……
At the same time, Feng Xiuxue was standing in front of the door on the first floor.
Until he walked in with Bai Yanliang, everything was normal.
However, just as she was distracted and turned to look at the room, an accident happened immediately.
When she turned around, Bai Yanliang in front of her had disappeared.
Just a moment of effort.
This is obviously the work of evil spirits.
However... even if the rules are set by others, it is impossible for such things as door-opening killings to occur. In a sense, a world like "Fog Ji" is very fair.
What Feng Xiuxue is sure of is that even if Bai Yanliang is not dead, he will not be able to help him for the time being.
She calmed down and carefully observed the interior structure of the house. No matter how she looked at it, the strangest thing was the old wardrobe.
Of course, she hadn't gone up to the second floor to check.
But that wardrobe gave Feng Xiuxue a very bad feeling. She could vaguely feel... as if something was hiding in it, secretly peeping at her.
Feng Xiuxue took a deep breath. The focus now is...finding a way out.
Just then...
Feng Xiuxue's cell phone suddenly rang.
The caller message had the three characters Bai Yanliang written on it.
Feng Xiuxue's complexion changed suddenly...
……
"Hello."
Bai Yanliang listened to Feng Xiuxue's voice and remained silent for the time being.
Although the call was connected, he was not sure that the person who answered the phone at this time would definitely be Feng Xiuxue.
Moreover, Bai Yanliang suddenly thought of something terrible.
That is...it is not necessarily Feng Xiuxue who disappears, but...him. In other words, he was the one who triggered a certain taboo.
After all, compared to Feng Xiuxue, Bai Yanliang was the one who pushed open the door.
Bai Yanliang suddenly hung up the phone. If he was the one who disappeared, then... in this space, no matter what he does, he will easily attract evil spirits.
Sometimes, doing less and making fewer mistakes is also a choice.
Bai Yanliang looked at the extinguished screen and kept thinking about one thing.
Is that why cell phones have signal?
Is it due to Li Gui's ability, or... The current self and Feng Xiuxue have not actually been dragged into the world of that mysterious man. They are still in Ye City, but their senses have been confused.
That's not impossible.
An even more frightening speculation is that there is no signal in this world.
And the reason why he has it is because the ghost wants him to have it.
If you follow this line of thinking... What does the ghost want to do when the signal on his mobile phone is restored?
Could it be...that the way it kills people is through the phone?
Somewhat possible...but too far-fetched.
Maybe it could locate him through the phone calls he made and thus find himself?
Bai Yanliang pondered, and a depressing atmosphere enveloped this abandoned house.
At this moment, the sound of opening the door suddenly sounded downstairs...
Someone opens the door?
who?
Feng Xiuxue?
Bai Yanliang's nerves suddenly became tense. Compared with Feng Xiuxue, it was more likely... that it was a ghost.
He glanced around and saw that there was no hiding place on the empty second floor. If it was really a ghost, as long as it came up the stairs, he would definitely die!
Gradually... the sound of footsteps sounded.
"Chi—chi—"
The footsteps downstairs were not crisp, and the other party's feet seemed to be growing on the wooden boards, dragging forward.
You can tell from this sound...it is definitely not Feng Xiuxue.
Bai Yanliang had a rare drop of sweat on his forehead.
He listened carefully to the footsteps downstairs. It was wandering on the first floor, and then there was a "squeak-" sound.
It opens the wardrobe.
It's looking for him!
Bai Yanliang immediately came to this conclusion after hearing the sound of the closet door being opened. At the same time, he quickly made an extremely bold decision!
Lowering his steps and walking briskly, Bai Yanliang approached the stairs and looked through the gap in the stairwell towards the closet in the corner downstairs.
Suddenly, Bai Yanliang's pupils shrank!
It’s really a ghost!
However... the appearance of the other party was a bit beyond Bai Yanliang's expectation. It walked upside down in a very strange posture, its body was covered in blood and flesh, and a long blood trail was drawn out from the ground dragged by its hands.
As if it felt something, the terrifying ghost suddenly turned its head. Because it was upside down, its head was hanging above the ground. When it looked towards the stairwell, Bai Yanliang had disappeared.
"Kacha——"
The closet door was closed by it.
Bai Yanliang wiped the sweat from his forehead. Although it was very risky just now, he got very useful information!
And he has been able to confirm that this ghost has no sensory ability. The way it looks for people is sight! As long as it doesn't see it, it won't catch it.
However, at this time, the movement downstairs started again...
"Chi—chi—"
This time Bai Yanliang knew that it was not feet but hands that grew on the ground. It moved in a weird inverted posture, dragging its hands on the ground.
It checked the first floor again, and this time, it came to the second floor...
Bai Yanliang's heartbeat began to accelerate. This crisis was unprecedentedly huge!
The windows were sealed with steel bars and it was impossible to open them, let alone jump from the building.
As for a place to hide... the second floor is extremely empty. Even the broken wardrobe that is found on the first floor is not available on the second floor.
And even if there was, the ghost would go check it out, so hiding in the closet was obviously not a good idea.
So how to hide so as not to be discovered by it?
Bai Yanliang's eyes flashed wildly, looking around for the last possible chance of survival. At this time, the ghost's movement had already reached the stairs.
It... came up.
I lost my ID card...I have to go back to my hometown to get a replacement. I hope the brother who found my ID card won't use it to cause trouble...
