After saying these words, the maid immediately closed her mouth and didn't want to talk anymore, apparently out of fear of being reckless and enthusiastic about helping her.
Behind her, the dark mist also dissipated, revealing the passage behind.
Gu Wuji took the key and noticed that it was not for the door, but like a small key for the drawer.
"Where is this going to be used for?" He put away the key while wondering in his heart, and the housekeeper and Cheng Jia hurried over behind him.
Looking at Gu Wuji with a blood-stained kitchen knife in his hand, the housekeeper's forehead was covered with cold sweat. It was obvious that the other party looked so kind, but he always felt that Gu Wuji in front of him gave him a feeling more terrifying than a ghost. I feel like I can play the villain of some horror movie directly!
However, this may be a good thing, at least there is a sense of security.
The three of them continued to walk forward, doing the same thing as before. After smashing another mirror, the surrounding atmosphere became heavier, and even the light in the room was completely dimmed, and the five fingers could not be reached.
If it weren't for the real time displayed on the phone, Gu Wuji would have suspected that it was already dark.
Because of the lighting problem, they had to use the flashlight of the mobile phone to go forward.
Cheng Jia held his breath. In such darkness, he always felt that there would be monsters around at some point, and he couldn't help but want to get closer to the two in front.
Almost in the next instant after he finished thinking like this, several mirrors in the back shattered, and there was the sound of something crawling on the ground, and the sound of toothless limbs being broken.
"Fuck!" Cheng Jia was so frightened that he ran a few steps forward, and suddenly hit a hard back, "Gu, Master Gu—"
Cheng Jia suddenly felt something was wrong. Why was Master Gu's body suddenly so hard? It's like hitting a rock.
He subconsciously raised his mobile phone. In the light of the mobile phone, a pale face suddenly appeared in front of Cheng Jia. It turned out to be a corpse with only bones left and only a few pieces of flesh hanging on its face. A grim smile appeared in the faint blue light.
"Cheng Jia, what are you doing behind?" Gu Wuji sounded from the front with a suspicious voice.
"Ahhhhh!!!"
Cheng Jia was so frightened that he fell to the ground and screamed out loud. No matter how many times he repeated this kind of thing, he would still not get used to it!
The next moment, the skeleton in front of him was suddenly caught off guard by a strong impact, and fell to the ground, making a sound of broken bones, and fell to Cheng Jia's side like this, his hand almost touched Cheng Jia's hand next to him. .
"Damn it!" Cheng Jia was so frightened that he immediately retracted his hand and hurriedly moved further away.
"Are you alright?" Gu Wuji appeared in front of him, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and looked at Cheng Jia and the skeleton nervously, with worry in his eyes, "It really startled me... It looks like the situation It doesn't seem good."
Seeing Gu Wuji's worried eyes, Cheng Jia's nose was sore, and tears were coming down, "Gu, Master Gu... You are so worried about me... "
As Gu Wuji said this, he lifted the corpse on the ground, took out the kitchen knife that had just been accidentally inserted into the opponent's bone, and looked at him nervously, "Are you okay? I didn't mean to. Yes, I'm sorry... After all, you were a little in the way of standing there just now."
Cheng Jia's tears stopped, "..." He knew that things would not be so simple.
The skeleton was obviously seriously damaged by the impact just now, and he immediately looked at Gu Wuji with a look of resentment, and even wanted to attack Gu Wuji directly.
"I think your body seems to be twisted, are you okay." Gu Wuji said this, and at the same time manipulated the corpse in front of him, the corpse with only bones left immediately made a sound as if it was about to fall apart.
Cheng Jia next to him saw that the cold sweat on his face was about to fall, and he couldn't help but suddenly feel fortunate that the person concerned by Master Gu was not himself... No, how could he think so! This is an honor, this ghost must be very happy.
"It looks like it should be fine." Gu Wuji wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked at the assembled skeleton in front of him with satisfaction.
The skeleton finally found the opportunity again. This time, while Gu Wuji was not paying attention, he stretched out his hand to his shoulder, and the movement was much faster, as if he was afraid of what Gu Wuji would do to it. .
Cheng Jia, who had just stood up, changed his face, "Master Gu—"
Gu Wuji suddenly noticed something again, "Wait, the waist is not aligned here..." He was about to adjust, and then he noticed the hand of the skeleton that was very close to him.
The movement of the skeleton stopped for a while, and it didn't know why it felt like it was being caught.
"You're all injured, you can't move around." Gu Wuji grabbed the skeleton's hand and put it back abruptly, and then tossed it again, the sound of the teeth rubbing against the bones continued to be heard, and the skeleton still had a few bits on it. Piece of flesh had a look of pain on his face, as if he was suffering some terrible torture.
Cheng Jia: "..." Isn't this really intentional!
"Finally." Gu Wuji breathed a sigh of relief and looked at his results with satisfaction.
The skeleton faced Gu Wuji at this moment and had no other thoughts. The moment Gu Wuji let go of his body, he fled towards the other side of the corridor as if flying, and a piece of paper fell from his body. , and have no intention of picking it up.
"It seems to be recovering very well." Gu Wuji looked at the skeleton's back, with a look of relief, picked up the piece of paper on the ground, and saw the words written on it.
-Is everything you think right now
"What is this?" Cheng Jia was puzzled, "So artistic."
"I'm not very clear." Gu Wuji said this, but felt that this piece of paper must be some very important clue, so he put it away.
The housekeeper who was left there alone had already called out there, and they immediately walked over there.
At this moment, all the mirrors around were shattered. What appeared after the shattering was not a wall, but a bottomless darkness. I didn't know what space was connected to the back, and there were black hairs coming towards it. spread around.
"It's her..." Cheng Jia recalled the previous psychological shadow when she saw the black hair, "Let's run!"
Gu Wuji didn't say anything, after all, his breasts were useless now.
The two quickly rushed to the housekeeper, who changed his face when he saw the situation behind him, and led them to the original destination - Cheng Jia's room.
But at this time, the terrain in the villa began to change in various ways, and there were various forks around it, just like a maze. Even if they wanted to find the place they originally wanted to go, there was no way.
Gu Wuji relies on intuition along the way. If he encounters a monster, he will forcefully go over it... Speaking of which, this kitchen knife is really useful, and it can cause some lethality to ghosts, making Gu Wuji wonder if he can take it out. .
Gu Wuji ran all the way in the direction of the few mirrors, and led the two of them to a corridor that seemed calm.
"It scares me to death." Cheng Jia gasped continuously. He hadn't eaten all day, and his physical exertion was so intense that he no longer had any strength. "Where is the safety here?"
"If you don't hurry up, there won't be enough time." Gu Wuji had no physical worries at all, but he frowned when he looked at the time displayed on the phone.
A few people walked forward, just after turning a corner, a door suddenly appeared in front of him, when Gu Wuji subconsciously wanted to open the door, he suddenly stopped and noticed something: "This door is more shabby than other doors. ."
Even the doorknob has a feeling of impending decay, which makes people feel uneasy.
Although the housekeeper and Cheng Jia have lived here for a long time, after all, the terrain here is the opposite of reality, and because of the passage of time, the terrain has changed dramatically. After realizing it, his face suddenly became ugly, "In reality, there is no such door."
"What?" Cheng Jia was taken aback. "Butler, you read that right."
"This is the sealed room." The butler's voice trembled a little. When all this clearly appeared in front of his eyes, he couldn't help but recall the fear at the beginning.
He glanced at Gu Wuji, who was next to him, with some complicated emotions in his eyes that he couldn't explain, and finally he was hesitant to say anything.
"Did you get here so soon?" Cheng Jia couldn't help but be silent, and all kinds of terrible thoughts emerged in his heart, "I didn't hear about that, when the uncle died, the state of death was terrible, and everyone who saw it appeared later. Is there a psychological shadow... Is it really okay for us to just go in like this?"
At this time, the sound of the mirror shattering was still coming from behind them, and it was conceivable how many monsters appeared in the house.
"There is no other way, the two of you will never hold on to your physical strength any longer." Gu Wuji opened the door without even thinking about it, and at the same time shone the light of the flashlight of his mobile phone into the door.
In front of Gu Wuji's eyes, an upside-down corpse appeared, with a bloody face with a numb smile.
Cheng Jia in the back was so scared that he took a few steps back, and the housekeeper next to him was numb. In fact, he still admired the courage of Young Master Cheng Jia to be able to persist until now.
Gu Wuji looked at the corpse indifferently, "I'm sorry we are in a hurry, can you let it go."
The corpse and Gu Wuji's eyes looked at each other for a long time, and found that the person in front of him was not at all afraid of him, and glared at him again, just as he was about to make a move, his eyes suddenly fell on the blood-stained kitchen knife in Gu Wuji's hand. .
This kitchen knife already looked like a murder weapon, and after slashing all kinds of monsters along the way, it looked even more tragic... The body of the corpse suddenly disappeared into the ceiling.
Entering the room, the housekeeper and Cheng Jia were relieved after seeing the scene in front of them.
It was completely different from what they imagined with the rotting corpses. Except for the old decoration, the rest of the room looked very normal. There was no dust, and it was shockingly clean.
But on second thought, this is even more creepy, as if someone still lived here just now.
What makes people feel reliable is that there is only one mirror in this room, and it is hung in the center of the room. As soon as they enter it, they will face the mirror, and they will feel numb when they look at it.
Obviously, there is absolutely something wrong with this mirror, no need to doubt it.
Gu Wuji looked left and right in the house, and soon found a box that was locked on the desk. The keyhole was about the same size as the key that the maid gave him before. But he tried and couldn't open the box.
"Isn't it this box? Where will it be used?" He couldn't help but wonder.
"Master Gu, don't worry about that box, there's no time left. In short, let's hurry up and smash the mirror here!" Cheng Jia said quickly.
"Yeah." Gu Wuji felt that what Cheng Jia said made sense. He took a deep breath and took a deep breath. He looked at the mirror in front of him, and felt an extremely strong Yin Qi coming from it. Break it up, and you can—
But the situation has developed so far, is everything going too smoothly
At this critical moment, Gu Wuji remembered the words written on the note in his mind, and the kitchen knife in his hand couldn't slash for a while.
Yes, did they believe too much what the documentation said from the beginning, but is the thing in that documentation really true? If that master was really that powerful, he shouldn't have done such a dangerous thing from the beginning, doesn't he know that these mirrors are dangerous
Compared to someone who helped the Cheng family, in fact, what the other party did was more like raising a gu in this Cheng family... And why did the person who called the third master manipulate the mirror, why would he know about the mirror
Or is it that the two were involved from the very beginning, and everything was calculated from the beginning, just like the female ghost I met in the suburban hotel
If he shatters this mirror now, will he really be able to leave this world, or will he… release the ghosts of this world as well
"Master Gu, what's the matter? Are you okay?" Cheng Jia saw Gu Wuji staring at the mirror in a daze, and an anxious voice sounded immediately.
"No..." Gu Wuji looked at the mirror in front of him, but suddenly stopped, he suddenly noticed the two people behind him reflected in the mirror, beside Cheng Jia, a handsome young man was sitting, looking at him with a smile.
Cheng Jia and the housekeeper next to him didn't notice the person beside him at all, and looked at themselves worriedly.
"The situation is definitely wrong." Gu Wuji's intuition realized that the situation was wrong, no matter what, he couldn't smash the mirror.
Gu Wuji immediately wanted to take back the kitchen knife, but the next moment, a slender hand suddenly stretched out from the mirror and held his wrist tightly.
"Master Gu—"
In Cheng Jia's terrified voice, Gu Wuji felt a huge force that could not be resisted, his body was completely unable to use his strength at this moment, and he slammed into the mirror like this.
But Gu Wuji didn't feel like he hit anything hard. Instead, it was like diving into the water. He couldn't breathe for a while. Before he could see clearly, his eyes went black.
…
…
When Gu Wuji opened his eyes, he suddenly found himself in a room that was exactly the same as the one he just saw, except that it was upside down, but it was brand new.
And his own body is translucent.
"Where the hell is this? Is it the world in the mirror?" Gu Wuji tentatively touched his body and could touch it without any obstacles, but when he touched the surroundings, he felt empty, "Am I died?"
Don't let him die and stay in this room.
Turning his head again, Gu Wuji saw a young man sitting on the bed. He looked about fifteen or sixteen years old, his face was very pale, and he didn't seem to be in very good health.
Gu Wuji could see from the handsome face of the other party that this was the appearance of the young master of the Cheng family who committed suicide as shown in the information.
"Here is the memory of this dungeon's Specter Boss?" Gu Wuji walked over slowly, wanting to touch him, but just like everything else, he couldn't touch anything.
Just then, the door was pushed open, and a maid came in with food.
When Gu Wuji looked over, he noticed that the face of the other party was still very familiar. It was the maid who was sweeping the floor that he saw outside the utility room. So it seemed that she was originally someone from the outside world.
The maid looked a little sad and sighed: "Master, the kitchen said it's too late and they don't want to prepare food, so there are only leftovers for today."
"It doesn't matter." The young man said lightly, as if he had long been accustomed to this kind of treatment, or maybe he didn't take these things into his eyes at all.
The maid put the food on the table next to her, while gritted her teeth and said, "Young master is obviously so smart and his grades are good, if it wasn't for something that happened to save that guy before, why would he have to lie on the bed now... In the end, they didn't do anything at all. Don't take the young master seriously, and secretly laugh at the young master."
Gu Wuji thought to himself, this is different from what the housekeeper said about the young master who was already weak... It seems that the housekeeper has also concealed something from the beginning, why? Does this have anything to do with the Cheng family's reputation
Then the picture went dark, and when it lit up again, the surrounding was the Cheng Family Hall.
Time should have passed several years. The original teenager has now become a young man, with a handsome face and a noble spirit. He smiled and looked at the few people around him.
The faces of the people around are somewhat familiar, obviously they are from the Cheng family, and only the third master is not there. They all had a complicated and surprised look on their faces at this time, and a bit of jealousy.
Gu Wuji also noticed the young housekeeper standing behind one of them.
"You can't do this! Even if your father left a will before his death, you can't manage such a big business at all!" A person suddenly said.
"Oh? But other people don't think so, do they?" The young man said lightly, "Since the matter has been discussed, I'll leave first, you can do it yourself."
The maid came over and pushed the young man in the wheelchair away, with a sincere joy on her face, "Young master, it's great, I didn't expect the directors of the family business to support you so much."
"After all, they are all smart people." The young man put a smile on his face at this time, "I know who is the most suitable person for that position."
Gu Wuji thought about it, turned his head again, and saw that the man behind the man who just spoke smiled and waved to the maid behind the young man, and the maid's face suddenly turned crimson.
This scene was immediately disturbing.
Gu Wuji couldn't help but be silent, it seems that the housekeeper is hiding too many things... Now it seems that this young man is not only not the mentally and sickly person they say, but a person who is obviously in poor health, but still works hard like this , and the character doesn't seem to have any problems at all.
Then, the picture changed again, and in that room, the young man was sitting by the window with something written in his hand.
When there was a knock on the door, he put the piece of paper away, put it in the box next to it, locked it, and said, "Come in."
Gu Wuji looked at the box, then at the key in his hand, and had an idea in his heart.
It was the maid who walked in. She looked in a hurry and brought the food in her hand to the young man, "Master, let's eat quickly."
"Why are you here so late today?" the young man said casually.
"Ah, because something happened in the kitchen." The maid said quickly.
"Okay." The young man nodded and put the food into his mouth. After swallowing a mouthful, his expression suddenly changed, "What did you put in it?"
The maid took a few steps back and knelt directly on the ground, tears streaming down her face, with panic on her face, "Young master, I'm sorry... I didn't mean it! It's the eldest master, he caught Ah Xuan, if he doesn't do it, he will will die… "
"Is that so?" The young man just sneered, realizing that his body was no longer able to exert any strength, and looked at the maid with disappointment, "How could he attack his own people? What did they promise you? The good thing is that you did this to me, you still don't believe that a waste like me can come this far."
"I, no..." The maid had a complicated look on her face, but she couldn't explain it for a while, and finally she could only say: "Young master, you are not healthy and you are not suitable for that position."
At this time, the door over there was also pushed open, and two or three people walked in.
Gu Wuji noticed that their faces were also very familiar. One of them was the skeleton with a few pieces of flesh hanging on its face that he had just seen, and the other was the corpse hanging upside down in the room when he entered the room...
These people put the young man on the ground, and the other held a knife in his hand, and his face was still grim, "You will only bring trouble to everyone else if you continue to live, it is better to die!"
The maid next to her turned her head, as if she couldn't bear what she saw next.
The young man just looked at these people coldly, as if he was looking at a few dead people.
When they were stared at by this terrifying look, they were immediately upset, "What is there to hesitate, hurry up and do it!"
In the next moment, another person stabbed the knife directly into the young man's chest.
The eyes of the youth, the last thing they see... is themselves in the mirror.
The color of the entire memory turned bloody at this moment.
"So it is." Gu Wuji saw this, and he already understood, "So it is..."
That's why the housekeeper didn't tell him the real situation. After all, the head of the Cheng family is still the eldest man who hired a murderer to kill.
After that, a few more pictures appeared in front of Gu Wuji's eyes. It was the people who started to go crazy in front of the mirror. Even though there was nothing around, they were extremely frightened. A picture of his own body self-harm.
In the end, their terrifying corpse was discovered by others, and the entire Cheng family was in a panic.
Obviously, the resentment of the young man after his death made him a ghost, attached to the mirror in this house. And those who mutilated him almost all survived, fell into hallucinations, and finally died in the most terrifying way.
…
…
"You've finished it."
With the sound of the voice, Gu Wuji opened his eyes again and found himself sitting on the sofa with tea brewed in front of him.
Sitting across from Gu Wuji was a handsome young man. There was no doubt that the other party was the boss of this instance.
But he didn't kill Gu Wuji directly, instead he smiled at Gu Wuji.
"It's you." Gu Wuji had just read other people's memories, and his mood was still a bit complicated.
But no matter how you look at it, this young man was the victim, and it was the other members of the Cheng family who killed him. From this point of view, the things he has done to others are actually not excessive, but Cheng Jia and the others are too innocent.
"It seems that you already know all about the things that happened in the past." The young man said lightly, as if those things in the past were not worth mentioning to him, "Of course, that's all my fault. I don't believe it. People who should be trusted, it's just this kind of thing, and it won't happen again in the future."
"It would be good if you could read it." Gu Wuji said, but he knew in his heart that what he said was nonsense. If this young man really read it, where would he become the boss of this dungeon? He must have been reincarnated long ago. went.
"Of course, after that, they also got the ending they deserved." The young man said, took a sip of tea, and said softly: "Always stay in this world and do what they should do for a lifetime, Is it good to make up for their sins?"
"Well, I think you're right." Gu Wuji said, he finally understood that the sensible ghosts in this copy probably stayed in this world like this.
After all, they have done that kind of crazy thing. Now they can't get wages, and they can't work every day when they die.
"That's right. I know that you are different from others. Although you came in with those sinners, you have nothing to do with them. You will definitely understand me and support me." Ji smiled, and the relationship between the two seemed to have been brought closer, "However, there are still many people who haven't gotten the punishment they deserve... Don't you think, shouldn't it?"
"What you said is so reasonable!" Gu Wuji nodded quickly and said angrily: "These people actually did such illegal things for the power of the family, how could I just sit back and watch."
"So, I hope you can help me." The young man said, with a bit of persuasion in his words, "As long as you..."
"Don't worry! When I leave, I will call the police immediately." Gu Wuji vowed.
Youth: "… "
The author has something to say: Finally finished! !
