"What...what should I do? It was like this before..." Li Xi's face turned pale. He didn't know whether he had lost too much blood or was frightened by the scene in front of him.

Qin Manjiang seemed to be prepared, and whispered: "Don't talk, don't move, and follow me."

Under the leadership of Qin Manjiang, the two of them slowly walked to the last row of empty seats in the screening hall, sat down, and looked at the movie theater with expressionless faces, covered with snowflakes and no picture at all.

's big screen.

The weird atmosphere continues.

Just as Qin Manjiang speculated, these "people" did not take any further action. On the contrary, after seeing Qin Manjiang and Li Xi sitting down, everyone's necks slowly twisted back, and their eyes returned to the big snowflake-covered building.

on the screen.

Qin Manjiang and Li Xi both breathed a sigh of relief.

Li Xi lowered his voice and asked secretly: "What is going on? Aren't they ghosts..."

Qin Manjiang shook his head and said: "They are indeed ghosts, but they should not be the kind of ghosts that attack and kill unconditionally and without distinction."

"I felt strange when you called before. All their strange behaviors in this theater happened after you called. In other words, as long as we don't disturb them while watching the movie, we are safe for the time being."

"These people can't all be the victims of the fire ten years ago... I shouldn't have clicked on that game and been led into such a ghost place..."

"This is basically a movie theater just for ghosts..."

Li Xi seemed to regret a little.

Qin Manjiang looked at him deeply and did not answer.

"Your injury cannot be treated now. I'm worried about heavy bleeding if I pull out this knife. Keep it like this for the time being and wait for me for twenty minutes." He said.

Li Xi nodded, as if he didn't take it to heart: "If you don't believe me, who else can you believe? I've never seen you panic since I've known you for so long! Hey, Brother Qin, will you cry?"

Li Xijiu's question was sudden.

"I remember you were drunk when Old Uncle Qin passed away, but you didn't cry even when you were so drunk... You don't have tear ducts, right?"

Qin Manjiang looked at him and said seriously: "Crying is the first thing that humans do when they come to the world. It is a good thing. I only cry for happy things."

"But I haven't seen you cry when you are happy?"

"I'm not happy enough to cry."

"Oh...then is it possible that we came from heaven to hell, so we cry as soon as we are born?"

Qin Manjiang glanced at Li Xi, and just as he was about to speak, he found other eyes in the screening room staring at him again, and quickly shut up.

This screening room is not just for avoiding the pursuit of tall and powerful ghosts. It should not exist, but it does exist now.

It is highly likely to hide something. It is actually not difficult to guess. Qin Manjiang has already guessed a few things. First of all, the two bastards cannot enter here. It is simply telling him that the secrets hidden here are related to them.

If all the "people" present were the audience members of Hall 3 who died in the fire ten years ago, except for the wife who was not allowed to enter, there would still be two people missing.

If these two people were replaced by Li Xijiu and Qin Manjiang, they would just make up the number that year.

When Qin Manjiang and Li Xi took their seats and moved their eyes to the big screen, sure enough...

Something strange happened!

The pale snowflakes on the big screen stopped, and a faded picture... began to play.

Qin Manjiang held his breath, and Li Xi's eyes widened. The movie he saw before was obviously not this one. Could it really be related to the number of people?

Anyway...the "movie" begins.

————

The scene begins on a sunny summer day.

People came and went in Fucheng, and vehicles continued to flow. The refreshing wind shuttled through the streets and alleys of the city, sweeping away some crumbling leaves. Some fell on the streets, some fell on the lake, some fell on the benches, and some

It fell into the pages of the book, and another piece fell on the shoulders of a father.

The scene zooms in, and a father and son dressed simply are standing on the street. They are inconspicuous.

My father has dark skin and is obviously still young, but his figure is a bit stooped and he is not very tall.

Although it could be seen that he had cleaned himself well, the blackness between his fingernails and the fatigue and wrinkles at the corners of his eyes and temples could not be covered up.

The father and son are from a mountain village.

The black color between his fingernails comes from something called rubber tree, which can easily turn black when it sticks to his hands. At first, he had to wash it every time, but it soon became stained again. Later, he couldn't wash it off anymore.

This is the first time that father and son have entered the city.

The child wanted to go to elementary school. There was no elementary school in the mountain village, so the father decided to take the child to the city instead of working in the mountains. Instead, he went to work in the city.

Along the way, the child saw a train for the first time, ate ice cream for the first time, and saw a mirror that was cleaner than his face for the first time!

Lie down in front of the mirror, carefully put your hand on it, make a clean fingerprint, and then smile silly.

"Dad, I want to watch cartoons."

Father: "Okay, dad will take you there."

He didn't know where to watch cartoons. After summoning the courage to ask someone, he found out about something called a movie theater.

A father took a child who didn't understand anything and went to the cinema.

They walked from one end of the city to the other, their backs dripping with sweat on a hot day, but their eyes were bright.

People in the city are in such a hurry that no one will notice this pair of weed-like father and son.

"right here!"

After finding the cinema, the two father and son were extremely excited. The father took the child's hand and wiped it on his clothes, and the two walked in uneasily.

"Hello sir, do you need any help?"

"...We want to watch cartoons."

The conductor looked at the two of them up and down, and seemed to suddenly realize: "Oh, okay, our latest movie will be in half an hour, do you want it?"

The father nodded quickly: "I want... this is it."

"Okay, one ticket is thirty-six yuan, a total of seventy-two yuan. Thank you."

The child glanced at his father in confusion. Just now he felt his father holding his hand and suddenly exerting force.

"Okay...seventy-two...seventy-two."

My father took out banknotes from his trouser pocket. There were banknotes in various colors. Although they were not brand new, they were very neat.

"We also have fast food restaurants and clothing stores here. You two can go shopping while waiting."

The conductor guided us with a smile.

"well……"

The father held his child's hand awkwardly, glanced at the clothes on himself and his child, and then at the clothing store.

"Let's go, dad will take you to buy clothes!"

————

In the screening room, Qin Manjiang watched everything on the big screen in silence.

That's not a movie, that's the life story of the father and son.

The father felt uncomfortable holding his child's hand. When he entered the fast food restaurant, he found that he didn't know how to order food by himself, and finally left in embarrassment.

When I entered a clothing store, the boss picked up the clothes and persuaded me to try them on. I was too embarrassed to return them and told them that I wouldn't buy them. I didn't dare to pay back the price, so I just bought them.

They did come to the city, but it was obvious that the city did not belong to them.

The two father and son, wearing newly bought parent-child clothes, stood blankly at the entrance of the cinema, waiting for the movie to start.

They looked at the busy traffic and were in a daze.

The city is noisy but quiet, with only the summer wind blowing through the treetops and the leaves swaying.

"You can watch cartoons soon."

"Um."

"Dad, money is so expensive in the city..."

"It's not expensive. Dad can still earn more."

"Um!"

The screen flashes.

Although Qin Manjiang watched carefully, he also paid attention to the time. There was only less than ten minutes left.

The time of the fire was at midnight.

If you can't escape from here before midnight, everything will be over.

A picture of the screening room appeared on the screen.

It’s different from what was promised.

What was playing on the big screen was not a cartoon, but the child wisely did not cry, but held his father's hand and watched quietly.
To be continued...
