Yun Shu still stood stiffly on the spot, holding on to the edge of the wooden frame. Her rapid breathing and panic made her mind go blank for a moment.
A chill came up from the soles of her feet, and she even forgot to squat down and crawl away like Lu Mingzhu and the others.
Still in a trance, the two rolling heads stopped, and a sizzling sound came from nowhere. Then the entire wall opposite began to emit a faint light, and then slowly, there was a smooth black humanoid creature inside.
exposed.
Without eyes, nose and mouth, the monster's head tilted as if "looking" at their position, and then began to crawl out.
It was really crawling out, as if it were climbing over a window, and its hands and feet were beyond the limits of the frame. People outside could easily see that it was breaking free from the constraints of the wall and wanted to get out to find them.
Chu Xiaoqin and Lu Mingzhu hid behind the cover of the wooden frame, their eyes wide open and motionless as if they were immobilized.
This was even scarier than the two decapitated ghosts just now. Yun Shu's heartbeat was so fast that she was sweating all over. Then she staggered, grabbed Lu Mingzhu and Chu Xiaoqin and dragged them back.
"run!"
Lu Mingzhu couldn't stand up at all. She dragged her and hit the wooden frame next to her. With a "clang", the wooden frame fell heavily at their feet, almost crushing Chu Xiaoqin.
More than a dozen bottles of wine were smashed, and Yun Shu was forced to fall to the ground. The red wine quickly soaked her hands, feet and skirt.
The three of them were speechless for a moment, and then Chu Xiaoqin got up and pulled Lu Mingzhu up.
"Yunshu, can you still stand up? Let's go, let's go!"
The fear in Yun Shu's heart was dispelled. She blinked with difficulty, got up, walked to the wooden stand next door with a sullen face, took out a bottle of wine, and smashed it hard.
"Bang!"
The wine bottle hit the wall, shattering it even more thoroughly than before, and the wall seemed to be stuck for a moment, although the monster was still crawling out.
Chu Xiaoqin looked at her blankly, then went to get the wine bottle and handed one to Lu Mingzhu.
"Smash it, I think it's useful!"
Next, it was time to smash the wine bottles. They didn’t know the value of the red wine, so they smashed more than a dozen bottles without any burden.
Finally, the wall flickered twice, as if the TV signal was not good, and then went completely dark.
The monster is gone.
The three of them stopped panting and waited for two seconds to make sure it wouldn't light up again. Then they breathed a sigh of relief and sat down on the ground again.
"Did we beat it away?" Lu Mingzhu asked with a pale face.
Chu Xiaoqin shook his head, swallowed, and said hoarsely: "I heard the sound of something being smashed. It shouldn't be a wall."
Yun Shu glanced at him and got up again.
"Go and have a look."
Each of them carried a bottle of wine, endured the numbness of their scalps, and gradually got closer to the wall.
With the faint light, you can barely see that there is a smashed hole in the middle of the wall, with sparks flashing inside, and countless small circuits hidden behind the smooth "wall".
"This is not a wall," Chu Xiaoqin murmured, "it's a screen."
Lu Mingzhu: "But what about the monster running outside?"
"Maybe it's the technology of this world." Yun Shu said.
It may also be the technology of their original world.
But they don't understand the extent of technological development in the city, and they can't use this to distinguish whether the program is genuine or fake.
"But no matter what, these are all fake." She added.
What they fear is strange and unexpected things and their own imagination. Once they know that these things are fake, they are not so afraid.
The three of them took a breath and rested for a while. Chu Xiaoqin looked at the broken glass at his feet and remembered Yun Shu's "heroic gesture" when she smashed the wine bottle just now.
"Yunshu," his voice echoed faintly in the basement, "Why weren't you afraid just now? Are you afraid that this thing is real, and if you smash it, will it specifically trouble you?"
Who said she wasn't afraid...
Yun Shu was silent for a moment and said flatly: "People are most afraid of unknown things. It is better to be an understanding person than to be scared to death by yourself."
Having said this, she glanced around, lowered her eyes and kicked the broken glass at her feet.
"Okay, actually, I suddenly remembered something that happened before."
Lu Mingzhu asked: "What happened?"
"There used to be a man in our village who loved to smoke leaf cigarettes. He contracted a strange disease. At first, every time he smoked, he felt like hair-like worms crawling into his throat, and he couldn't even vomit. Later, I saw
There were hairs on the ground, and even when he ate long vegetables, he felt like he was eating hairworms, which scared him so much that he didn’t dare to eat anymore.”
"I went to many hospitals but no problem was found. Later, he was so hungry that he turned into withered tree bark. Someone asked him to smoke and dig out the hairworm."
Lu Mingzhu looked disgusted: "What, how do you dig it out?"
She told the story in a calm tone, but described it very carefully: "While he was retching, he dug his fingers into his throat and pulled out the hairworm. The thing was too long, and he kept pulling and pulling until it was quite long.
, half of it was still moving around in the throat. Then——"
"He didn't pull it out all the time. He vomited so much that he fell down and died. The hairworm was half in his mouth and half in his throat, and it was still moving."
"Ugh--" Just thinking about it makes me feel sick, as if there is a hair-like worm stuck in my throat, and I can't even vomit it out.
Chu Xiaoqin also frowned and kept swallowing.
Yun Shu laughed again at this time, came closer and told them softly: "Later, someone looked closer and saw that there were actually worms somewhere, just hair. He swallowed the hair, couldn't digest it and always felt that it was stuck to his throat. So...
, whether it is a human or a ghost, you have to pull it out first and see clearly before you can know whether it is true or false."
Chu Xiaoqin and Lu Mingzhu: "..."
Yes, I was scared just now, but now I am disgusted and scared.
These words did not stay in their hearts for long. There were still unknown ghosts in front of them, and they had to find bonus cards. They had a lot of business to do, and this disgusting little story was quickly forgotten.
But for Ning Siyun outside the surveillance camera, it was different.
——
Ning Siyun had not yet recovered from the heavy losses in the castle.
When he watched the end yesterday, he even forgot to use the password to tell them about deducting points. He stared at the messy basement on the screen and was so angry that his temples ached and he didn't even sleep well.
This afternoon I still have to negotiate with new project partners. As one of the project leaders sent by the Ning family, he must participate.
The place was chosen by the other party, an open-air golf club in the suburbs.
After enduring the exhaustion of playing two games with those old foxes, he found a corner and sat down.
Qi Zhou was also accompanying him, dragging Wen Jinnian with him who had nothing to do, found him, and sat down next to him.
"Damn it, those old foxes really have eight hundred opinions on what they say, and they don't even have a clear meaning."
As he spoke, he shook out a cigarette with one hand and handed it to Ning Siyun.
Ning Siyun took the opportunity to take it and lit it. As soon as he took a sip, his brain suddenly thought of the little story Yun Shu told last night.
The smoke sucked into the throat is like a wriggling hair, sticking up and down in the throat.
His expression changed, he threw away the cigarette, lowered his head and retched.
Qi Zhou was startled.
"What are you doing? This smoke is poisonous?"
Ning Siyun looked ugly, stood up and left: "Please say hello to me and I'll go catch up on my sleep."
"You've been acting really weird lately."
Watching him walk away, Qi Zhou rolled his eyes and said meaningfully to Wen Jinnian on the side: "He definitely has some little secret."

The screen here is based on a naked-eye 3D screen. It is indeed quite realistic. It is like being in a science fiction movie. It will definitely be exciting to use in horror movies.
