Only to find a ray of orange-red light pouring in from outside the balcony.
Time, unknowingly came to evening.
"Have you slept for so long?" Zhou You felt that his mind was a little confused and shook his head vigorously.
Just now, he had another dream.
I dreamed that I returned to the Demon Slayer Department and became a formidable demon slayer again, constantly fighting monsters and monsters.
Wow!
Zhou You turned on the faucet and rinsed his face with cold tap water.
"It was just a dream...I won't let it sink in anymore."
Zhou You looked at himself in the mirror, with a sickly pale look on his face.
Dong dong dong~
Outside the living room, there was a knock on the door.
"Zhou You, come over for dinner." It was the voice of the landlord, Uncle Li.
"Okay!" Zhou You responded.
"Then come here quickly." Uncle Li said and walked away.
Zhou You took a few deep breaths, washed his face again, and forced himself to regain consciousness.
This feeling of detachment from being unable to distinguish between reality and dreams made him feel very uncomfortable.
Uncle Li lives downstairs from him.
Zhou You opened the door, only to find that the corridor was filled with a burning smell.
He found that there was a brazier at the door of every house, with some black ashes left from burning inside. There was also a bowl of rice on the ground, with two candles and three incense sticks lit.
"What holiday is today?" It's a bit strange to travel around.
But he didn't think much about it. After all, he hadn't eaten since he came out of the hospital, and his stomach was already growling with hunger.
Zizzi~
The light bulb on the stairs seemed to have poor contact, flickering and making a constant sound of electricity.
An inexplicable atmosphere of horror spread in Zhou You's heart.
"Damn...there are no monsters or monsters in this world..." Zhou You shook his head violently.
He felt that he had thought too much and was still immersed in that dream world.
Went downstairs and knocked on Uncle Li's door.
In old-fashioned residential areas like this, basically no one installs doorbells.
after awhile.
A middle-aged woman whom Zhou You had never seen before opened the door and asked doubtfully: "Who are you?"
"I'm here to see Uncle Li..." Zhou You was also a little surprised.
Could this woman be Uncle Li's daughter?
But his daughter finally came back from abroad once, so why did she have to come over to eat by herself?
"My father passed away three days ago." The middle-aged woman shook her head, a trace of sadness flashed in her eyes.
"How is that possible?" Zhou You was shocked.
Middle-aged women please come into the house.
Inside the house, there is indeed a spiritual tablet enshrined.
"My dad had a heart attack three days ago and didn't make it through..."
"I just came back from abroad yesterday to deal with his aftermath."
Zhou You's eyes were dull, and an icy chill inexplicably rose up his spine.
If Uncle Li died three days ago, who did he meet at the gate of the community?
Then who knocked on his door and told him to go to dinner?
For a time, fear was like a tide, drowning the wandering souls.
He didn't know how he got back to his room.
The sky was completely dark now.
Turn on the lamp, and the intense white light emitted by the incandescent lamp seems to make the wandering mind a little less scared.
"Impossible...I definitely saw Uncle Li and chatted with him for a while. How could he have died three days ago?"
"Could it be that all this is my imagination?"
Zhou You was sitting on the sofa, feeling like his head was about to explode.
Mainly because what happened today was too incredible.
"Could it be that this world is also weird?" Zhou You suddenly thought of a possibility.
Dong dong dong~
The knock on the door rang again.
Zhou You had goosebumps all over his body, and an unspeakable terror arose in his heart.
He didn't dare to make a sound and covered his mouth desperately.
He is not the demon slayer in the innate realm now. He does not have strong cultivation, nor does he have a body like a god or demon, nor does he have all kinds of shocking martial arts. He is just an ordinary normal person.
Nowadays, the only thing we can do about such weird things is to hide in a corner.
Dong dong dong~
The knocking on the door, with a certain lingering meaning, kept echoing in Zhou You's ears.
This scene seems familiar...
Zhou You thought about his first night in that dream world.
Feixue Villa, the Demon Slayer's Trial....
I hid in a room and shivered.
The door was also knocking constantly.
At that time, I was still a warrior in the physical training realm, proficient in several martial arts, and much stronger than ordinary people.
But now I am just an ordinary person, what can I do to fight against these weird things?
Zizzi~!
At this time, the electrical appliances in the room seemed to be disturbed by something, making a harsh sound of electricity, and the lights went out.
The entire room was in a power outage.
Zhou You took out his cell phone and wanted to call for help.
This is the only way he can think of now.
But I was horrified to find that even my mobile phone seemed to be interfered with, and even the screen could not light up.
For a while, traveling around felt like falling into an ice cave, and my whole body was filled with chills.
Dong dong dong~
Outside the door, the knocking sound was still lingering in my ears.
A strange and terrifying atmosphere was being created in the room.
The temperature began to drop sharply.
Zhou You's heart became more and more frightened, and he even felt trembling. He could only huddle in the corner of the room, hold his mouth, and dare not make any sound.
I don’t know how long it took.
The knocking seemed to have stopped.
"Gone?" Just when Zhou You thought he had escaped.
Creak~
Like the painful moans of an old man who has been bedridden for a long time.
It fell on Zhou You's ears, but it seemed like a call from hell.
"How is that possible? I remember locking the door! How could it open automatically?!!"
Zhou You’s heart is filled with wonder.
Da da da!
Slight footsteps sounded in the room.
Step by step, it's like a heavy hammer hammering in Zhou You's heart.
"Impossible...I can't die here..."
"No...why should I be afraid of these dirty things?"
"If it were me in the dream, I would definitely kill him with one knife!"
"But that was a dream... I am just an ordinary person, how can I be the opponent of these dirty things?"
Zhou You seemed to have two thoughts in his mind at this moment, which were constantly entangled.
On the other side, the footsteps were getting closer and closer.
It's Uncle Li.
Uncle Li, who was still amiable during the day, is now wearing a shroud, his face is covered with dense spots of corpses, exuding an extremely strong aura of death, and his two dead fish eyes exude astonishing malice.
It didn't seem to notice Zhou You who was huddled in the corner, and was constantly looking around the room.
But the room hall is not big, and it is gradually getting closer and closer.
It won't take a few seconds for Zhou Yu to be discovered.
