In the pale moonlight.
The area from Santian Road to Beiyao Road was still as quiet as a cemetery.
There is no breath of life.
Xing Chen was walking on the road, although he didn't look back, he still looked at both sides.
"Where are Lu Ye and the others? Where is Ah Xiang..."
He hoped to find one of them sooner!
Suddenly, Xingchen saw the opposite, and a person came over!
That person seemed to have noticed himself too!
There was some moonlight again.
In front of Xingchen, the person who appeared was actually Liu Xiang!
Immediately, Xingchen was pleasantly surprised and ran over quickly. On the other hand, Liu Xiang also noticed the stars.
"Ah Xiang!" Xingchen ran over to hold Liu Xiang's hand, and said eagerly: "I... Is there anything following me? Tell me quickly!"
"No... nothing." Liu Xiang looked behind the stars and said, "There is nothing."
Liu Xiang's words made Xing Chen feel more relaxed. Although there may be an invisible existence in the ghost, for Xing Chen, who has joined the apartment for only half a year and has only executed the blood word once, his thinking has not yet fully shifted to this apartment that cannot be judged by common sense. For him, it is equivalent to "not existing".
"Xingchen..." Liu Xiang also said anxiously: "Where is my back? Nothing is following me?"
Xingchen shook his head and said, "No. Absolutely not."
"It scared me to death... A shadow suddenly appeared from behind me and grabbed my neck. I tried my best to escape, otherwise, I would never see you now... Xingchen..."
When the two met, the fear of each other was greatly reduced. Moreover, it was also confirmed that there were no ghosts behind him.
Next, the two began to walk side by side.
"I don't know what happened to Wen Xuehui, Lu Ye, and Sun Jian..." Liu Xiang and Xing Chen switched sides, sometimes Xing Chen walked in front of Liu Xiang, and sometimes Liu Xiang walked in front of Xing Chen, always checking whether there was anyone behind him. "ghost". After all, neither of them can turn back.
In this way, after a period of rotation, the two of them were a little dizzy, but after all, they felt safe by doing so. Knowing that he was behind his back was his brother who died!
"Ah Xiang!" Xingchen burst into tears and said to Liu Xiang beside him, "Ah Xiang, you are really my good brother! As long as I can go back to the apartment safely, I... I will definitely..."
"Stop it," Liu Xiang shook his head and said, "We must go back together. Xingchen, I will definitely not let you die."
As they walked, the two began to talk about the piece of paper again.
Who put that piece of paper
"Xingchen, one thing that needs special attention is that although the paper emphasizes 'don't turn back', it doesn't explain why 'don't turn back' at all. If the advice is to be convincing, wouldn't it be better to state the reasons? As long as it is reasonable, Someone will still accept it.”
"Yes..." Xing Chen also nodded, and replied, "So?"
"If this is a bluff, I don't think it is beneficial to anyone. To be honest, if the whereabouts of the third hell contract were announced in blood this time, maybe I would think that this is some kind of trick used by the residents to seize the contract. .But if there are no contract fragments, the interest relationship between the tenants and the tenants is naturally completely consistent."
"This... is also right..."
"If you think about it this way, I think that we can't change it with actual actions, even if we say or don't say the reason. In other words, it is a situation that we are completely powerless."
If it is said that "don't look back" is an instruction written in blood in the apartment, then everyone doesn't think much about it, it must be implemented anyway.
However, on what basis did the person who wrote that piece of paper categorically raise the ban that was not mentioned in blood
"Actually, I have considered..." Liu Xiang continued: "Whether 'Don't look back' may be the way to life. In other words, as long as you don't look back, you will never die. But there is no way to prove this point, or more strictly speaking. ...It can only be proved to the contrary. That is to say, 'even if you don't look back', you still die, which proves that 'don't look back' has no meaning for whether you can survive."
"Indeed," Xing Chen nodded in agreement, "Ah Xiang, you are so amazing, you actually think so much."
"Before, we were separated, so this disproof cannot be proven through reality." Liu Xiang sighed and said, "In any case, whether the proof must be 'no turning back' is of great significance to us. Because... there is still a long way to go." There is only one possibility, that is 'no turning back', which will lead us to die instead!"
Hearing this, Xingchen said in astonishment: "Ah Xiang, you... what are you talking about? No way?"
"Why do you think not?"
"Because... that note was found in the apartment. That is to say, the person who wrote the note must be a human being. As residents, everyone has no deep hatred. Besides, we have just entered the apartment, so no one has reason to treat you We hate it to the bone..."
"That's right, the person who wrote the note must be a human being." Liu Xiang paused at this point, and then said a creepy sentence: "But, who knew that the person who wrote the note was passed Where did you get the 'Don't look back' message? Can you guarantee that the person must have been in the apartment to get the message?"
Xingchen froze for a moment...
Did he mean to say...
"The following is my hypothesis, just listen to Xingchen..." Liu Xiang continued: "A certain resident, somewhere outside the apartment, had contact and intersection with the 'ghost'. The 'ghost' wanted to kill us. If we die, we must block our way of life. Therefore, the 'ghost' used a certain resident to convey a message to us. As for how to use it, it is very simple, such as incarnating as a fortune-teller who has a fortune-telling effect. The key word of this time is 'don't look back'."
"Ah... Ah Xiang, you, stop talking..." Xing Chen's face had turned pale at this moment. "I said that this is just a hypothesis, but this hypothesis may be true. Suppose, the 'way of life' in this bloody word is 'Go back and look'. Then the ghost used the false information conveyed by the resident to us 'Don't look back' , let us do the exact opposite of the way of life, then we can successfully block our way of life! And the residents who are being used are absolutely impossible to tell us openly, after all, there is such a kind of "fortune-telling" expert exists Every resident wants to have it for himself, so that in the future, he will have an invincible advantage in the competition for the fragments of the hell contract!"
"Stop it! Stop it!"
Xingchen was so frightened that he couldn't even walk. When Liu Xiang said this, he was behind the stars.
This assumption is indeed reasonable.
Many past examples have proved that it is entirely possible for the "ghost" to do something long before the start of the scarlet writing. The death of Xia Yuan is the best lesson for others! If you want to block their way of life, it is indeed quite effective to do so. Even if the origin of the note is unknown, the residents who entered the apartment will have the attitude of "you must believe it, you must not believe it all" because of the fear of many strange things that have subverted the previous worldview.
And... Even if this hypothesis is thought of, no one dares to turn around if it cannot be proved that this statement is wrong. After all, this is only a hypothesis, and there is no evidence to support it. After all, no resident dared to gamble with his life.
At this time, Xing Chen almost turned his head to take a look at Liu Xiang.
Ah Xiang is so smart
"As I said just now, only 'disproving' can we know whether this assumption is right or wrong. But there is no way to disprove it..."
"No... Ah Xiang," it was Xing Chen who was still walking in front of Liu Xiang at this time: "Actually, it is very easy to disprove it. It is very easy. That is... try to forcefully pull someone's face back. If this person If you die, it proves that the saying 'don't turn back' is correct, and the possibility of 'don't turn back' is a way of life has also increased significantly. But, conversely, if you don't die, then your hypothesis just now is fully proved. "
"Xing... Xingchen!" Liu Xiang walked in front of Xingchen and said, "You, how can you say that... Do you suspect that I want to do that to you? We carried out the first blood letter instruction together, and shared weal and woe My good brother! How could I do that... "
"No..." Xing Chen's voice came coldly: "Under normal circumstances, our life-and-death friendship is indeed a strong bond. However, the residents in this apartment are not thinking about how to spend one blood after another. Word instructions, find a way out! In order to be able to find out a way out, why is it so strange to use a person to conduct experiments?"
"I've said it... that's just a hypothesis. Xingchen, during the time you and I have been together, do you think that I will do that kind of thing just for a hypothesis?"
"This kind of thing... who would know! People's hearts are separated from the belly, as the saying goes, drawing a dragon and a tiger is difficult to draw a bone, knowing the face but not the heart!"
"Xingchen, you... don't say that! Think about it, if I mean it, why should I tell you what I think? Why don't you just do it when you're not prepared?"
"Well... I still think of something. What is your intention when you said this to me so tirelessly? You kept saying that the note might be the masterpiece of a 'ghost', but, did you also have a conspiracy when you said this? ?”
The trust between the two is shattered. Xingchen's eyes began to become colder and colder.
And at this time... Liu Xiang walked back behind Xingchen.
Behind the stars...
Behind it is…
right…
It's Yoo Sang.
"You..." Xingchen immediately shouted angrily, "What do you want to do?"
"It's nothing, we take turns running, you will be in front of me for a while, and I will be in front of you for a while, that's all...Xingchen, don't think too much..."
"Really? I looked at you because I was afraid that I would be behind you, so I might attack you first! Ah Xiang, did you expose your fox tail?"
"You... What nonsense are you talking about, Xingchen! Okay, I'll come in front of you!"
So Liu Xiang ran to the front of the stars again.
Looking at Liu Xiang's back in front of him, Xingchen suddenly and slowly stretched out his hands, stretching towards Liu Xiang's back...
Then, Xingchen suddenly grabbed Liu Xiang's cheek in front of him, and the next moment, Liu Xiang's head was pulled by those hands, and he turned his head away...
The next second, a shrill scream sounded!
Liu Xiang's body fell to the ground, while Xingchen stood in front of him.
Half of Liu Xiang's head has disappeared...
The star standing in front of him... the face didn't look like a star at all, but a bloody maw that was big enough to swallow a football, full of stench, and... a completely deformed face...
At the same time, on another road near here.
"This scream... yes, it's Ah Xiang! What's going on?"
The person who spoke looked in the direction of the screams, his face was full of horror. this person…
This is the real Bian Xingchen!
