Although the small bedroom is narrow, it is not shabby.
Golden velvet curtains were spread from the roof, surrounding the soft single bed. Xiaolan didn't know if there were such princess beds in other rooms. The wardrobe and dressing table were extremely complicated in shape, and brown curtains covered half of the wall.
The window, the bedside lamp hangs between the dressing table and the small bed.
The bathroom equipped in each room is on the right side of the door, and the public bathroom is opposite your room. From this point of view, it is indeed a very comfortable environment.
Xiaolan enjoyed the warmth of being surrounded by hot water, thinking how great it would be to really spend ten days like this.
Suddenly there was a gentle knock on the door.
Xiaolan suddenly stopped, leaned out of the bathtub, and listened carefully.
Tuk, Tuk, Tuk...
Someone is indeed knocking on the door.
But this knock on the door was a little different.
Xiaolan stood up, wrapped herself in a bath towel, walked to the bathroom door with wet bare feet, grabbed the bathroom door handle, leaned on the door and listened.
Tuk, Tuk, Tuk...
This knock on the door actually came from inside the door.
Squeak—bang!
The door opened sharply, and before Xiaolan could react, the door slammed shut again.
Xiaolan quickly opened the bathroom door.
The door was empty, nothing changed, and there was no more knocking on the door.
Before the warmth on his body disappeared, the coldness of falling into an ice cave hit Xiaolan.
It's the same inside the house, there's nothing more and nothing less.
But the sound of the door opening just now...
Did something go out, or did something come in?
The sense of security a few minutes ago was gone.
Xiaolan quickly dried herself, put on her clothes again, and knocked on Xiaoyin's door next door.
"What's the matter, Xiaolan, you are really scared..." Xiaoyin was brushing her teeth, her mouth full of foam and slurring her words as he ushered her into the room.
The layout of the two rooms is roughly similar, but there seem to be some differences.
Xiaolan briefly described the knock on the door just now. Xiaoyin said disapprovingly, "Xiaolan, are you asleep? I almost fell asleep when I took a bath just now. The water temperature was too..."
Just as Xiaolan was about to explain, the familiar knock on the door appeared again.
This time it's Xiaoyin's room.
Tuk, Tuk, Tuk...
Three more sounds.
Xiaoyin was stunned, watching Xiaolan rush to the door and open it with a swish.
There is nothing outside the door.
I poked my head out and took a look. The corridor was still empty and dark, and it didn't look like there were any living things.
"It must have been the old man who did it!" Xiaolan raised her toothbrush.
"The knock on the door came from inside the house," Xiaolan frowned, "Hisoka is a living person, so there is nothing he can do."
With a creak, the door next door opened.
Xiaolan and Xiaoyin tiptoed into the corridor, and happened to see Lao Luo walking out of the room with Panlongchi in his hand.
"You guys..." Lao Luo looked at the two of them, "I heard something moving in Miss Qin Yin's room. What happened?"
Xiaolan hurriedly told the story again.
After getting the consent of the girls, Lao Luo Ping walked into their room step by step with Panlongchi in hand.
Xiaolan and Xiaoyin grabbed each other's hands and followed behind, looking around nervously.
The inspection of both rooms is completed.
"Don't worry, Miss Qin Yin and Miss Xiao Lan, there is nothing in the house." Lao Luo flicked his long sleeves and took back Panlongchi, "There are indeed traces of the spiritual tide at the door, but it is only outside the door. It is still safe indoors.
"
"That old man is such a bully," Xiaoyin said angrily, "He only knows how to knock on our door. Why didn't he knock on Director Luo's door? It's okay to pick on the weak."
Xiaolan, a soft persimmon, sat beside her bed and felt that things were definitely not that simple.
"In that case, I will go back to the room," Lao Luo felt relieved and said with a gentle smile, "If Miss Qin Yin discovers anything else, you can knock on the wall between the two rooms. Jiutian and I tried it, and the effect was
very good."
"Ah," Xiaoyin stood up, "You have to leave."
Lao Luo shrugged, "It's very inconvenient for me to be here. You two should go back to your room quickly. There may be other things happening tonight."
Xiaoyin was politely dragged back to her room by Lao Luo, and Xiaolan was left alone again. Lao Luo walked around so much, which made Xiaolan feel a lot more at ease.
Lying on the bed and looking at the ceiling, Xiaolan thought that she should get some talisman paper from the Taoist priest.
After all, he was someone who had experienced a fierce battle. Not long after lying on the pillow, the fatigue of many days overwhelmed Xiaolan's brain, and he didn't even turn off the light.
A sleep without dreams.
Xiaolan lay peacefully on the small bed, breathing evenly, and every pore on her body seemed to be absorbing the essence and power around her.
Breathe-breathe-breathe-breathe-
There's some...something else.
Xiaolan frowned in her sleep.
Some strange sound came into my ears.
Xiaolan became restless under the thin quilt.
Hiss—hiss—hiss—
So noisy.
Before Xiaolan woke up, anger woke up first.
Bah la - bah la -
The sound coming from the right was like nails scratching the glass.
Zhi——
Zhi——
Zhi——
I can't stand it anymore!
Xiaolan's head turned left and right on the pillow a few times in vain, and she suddenly opened her eyes, filled with anger.
"Hehehehehe..."
A burst of laughter suddenly sounded from the window.
Xiaolan woke up immediately, and the room was still bright, which made people less scared.
There is something outside the window.
She lifted up the quilt, grabbed the curtains on both sides with both hands, took a deep breath, and pulled them open.
From here you can directly see the garden in front of the castle, and the view is very good.
Xiaolan looked around and saw nothing.
After all, it's a second-floor balcony, so it probably won't...
Hiss——
There was a subtle sound of electric shock.
rang behind him.
The surroundings suddenly fell into darkness.
There's a power outage.
There is a thin, orange-yellow crescent moon on the top of the garden.
But the moonlight did not comfort Xiaolan, and a deeper cold surrounded her.
Bah--
At the same time as the lights went out, the sound came from the lower left corner of the window again.
Xiaolan stood firmly on the spot, her mind already in a mess.
A black shadow appeared in the corner of the window.
Xiaolan opened her eyes wide, as if she could see all the details on this thing.
It was a human-shaped thing, with long messy hair covering its head. It was climbing up with its hands outside the window, and its sharp nails scratched on the glass, making a harsh sound.
It looks slow and not too dangerous.
But as if the thing had read Xiao Lan's thoughts, it kicked its legs curled up like a frog, and almost instantly jumped in front of Xiao Lan.
Xiaolan saw clearly what the thing looked like.
It felt like a hand was squeezing my stomach. I didn't know whether the twitching feeling was due to nervousness, fear, or simply nausea.
That thing has a rotten human face.
There were several strings of dark green rotten meat hanging on the bones, and Xiaolan suddenly understood where the smell Baomu mentioned came from.
Xiaolan and Xiaolan didn't look at each other for long before the thing jumped again and disappeared from Xiaolan's window.
