Winter Solstice is back!
no one.
No one around.
At that moment, he needed to mobilize all his willpower to resist the urge to scream.
Taking a deep breath, he looked to the ground again.
The shadow is still a shadow, at most it only trembled slightly as the train moved forward, and the scene just now seemed to be dazzling.
The winter solstice calmed down and found that my palms were sweaty and slippery on the wall of the car.
He hurriedly accelerated his pace, not daring to look at the ground again.
The dining car was brightly lit, and there were also people sitting in twos and threes. The winter solstice was subconsciously relieved.
He ordered a bowl of braised beef noodles, and bought instant noodles and some snacks for He Yu. He was about to walk to the empty seat when a child suddenly fell out of the seat next to him and fell in front of the winter solstice.
The winter solstice was startled, so he put things away and hurriedly bent down to help the child up.
"Kid, are you alright?"
The little girl is six or seven years old. She has two braids and an apple face under her neat bangs. She is very cute, but her expression is a little dull. After hearing the words of the winter solstice, she slowly shook her head after a while.
The winter solstice looked down at her knee, and it didn't break, it was fine.
A young woman hurried over: "Tongtong!"
The little girl turned around and opened her arms, and let the young woman hug her. The act of reliance was enough to show the relationship between the two.
Winter Solstice was afraid that the other party would misunderstand, so he hurriedly explained: "The little boy fell down just now, just so I ran into it."
The young woman did not express her anger, but instead thanked her repeatedly, saying that the child was too naughty, and she wanted to order a meal, but the situation happened after a while after leaving.
The winter solstice said: "I just happen to be here waiting for the food to be delivered. If you put the children here, I can help you watch for a while."
The young woman looked grateful, thanked her repeatedly, put her daughter on the seat opposite the winter solstice, instructed her to listen to her brother, and went to order a meal.
The little girl was very quiet, not at all "naughty" as her mother said. She and Dongzhi stared wide-eyed, but they couldn't help but say a word.
The winter solstice felt a little weird. At this time, the flight attendant served beef noodles, and the young woman who had bought things came back quickly.
"Thank you so much. I came out with Tongtong alone. Sometimes I really can't take care of her. Fortunately, there are always good-hearted people like you along the way!"
The winter solstice said with a smile: "It's okay, Tongtong is already very good."
"Isn't it too good?" The young woman smiled bitterly, "Actually, Tongtong has autism, and her father divorced me because of Tongtong's disease. I am usually busy with work, so I finally took a vacation, so I wanted to bring it with me. Tongtong comes out to play, so that she can see the landscape more, maybe her condition will improve."
The little girl was very well-behaved. She took her mother's noodle soup and ate it spoon by spoon. She was a little slow, but she was not like other children who were so spoiled that she refused to eat this or that.
The winter solstice is sympathetic.
"Where are you going?" Winter Solstice asked.
"Changchun." The young woman said, "This place has a nice name. I've always wanted to go, but I didn't have time after getting married, and then I gave birth to Tongtong... If there is a chance, I would like to take Tongtong to more places."
"I'm going to Changchun too. If Sister Xu needs anything, you can contact me."
After eating a bowl of noodles, it is enough to exchange contact information with each other during the winter solstice.
The young woman's surname is Xu, Xu Wan, and she lives up to her name, gentle and beautiful, but unfortunately her fate is unfortunate.
Xu Wan thanked her again and again with a grateful face. When the winter solstice left, she asked her daughter to say goodbye to her brother.
Tongtong seemed to understand, but slowly but obediently raised her hand and waved.
For some reason, the winter solstice suddenly remembered the shadow waving at him, and a strange haze was inexplicably cast in his heart.
Saying goodbye to Xu Wan's mother and daughter, he walked back with snacks.
After passing through a carriage, he suddenly felt something was wrong.
The surroundings are darker than when I just passed by, there is not even a night light above my head, and there are very few people.
… few
Looking at the winter solstice to both sides, there are still people sitting on both sides of the aisle.
It's just that no one slept on their stomachs or played with their mobile phones, and no one was chatting or laughing.
Taking a closer look at the winter solstice through the light from the mobile phone, these people look blank and their eyes are wide open, like...
Wax figures, or the living dead.
He shuddered at his imagination and turned to go back to the dining car.
But when he turned around, he found that the original dining car compartment behind him had also disappeared, replaced by an equally dark and dark train passage.
What a hell!
The heartbeat of the winter solstice intensified, and he accelerated his pace and walked forward, but it seemed that the carriage would never end. The expressionless and lifeless passengers were illuminated by the light of the mobile phone, and their faces even glowed with a strange cyan color.
Don't ask out loud, he didn't even dare to let out the air, for fear that a hand would suddenly reach out and grab him.
After walking for a long time with a sigh of relief, I finally found that there was a faint light in front of me.
Sure enough, there was someone standing there, looking a little familiar.
The winter solstice recognizes each other and is overjoyed.
"What happened!"
With his back to him, He Yu was squatting on the ground with a lantern in his hand. He was looking forward. When he saw the Winter Solstice running over, he turned back and raised his finger to shush, signaling him to be quiet.
The winter solstice meeting an acquaintance slightly lessens the fear.
"Why are you here? You are also trapped here? This place is too strange, let's find a way to get out!" Dongzhi hurried to pull him.
"Wait, look at this lantern!" He Yu said.
"What happened to the lantern?" Winter Solstice looked at the small, gray-yellow lantern in his hand inexplicably.
"This human skin lantern is about to break." He Yu looked mysterious.
"What lantern?" He thought that something was wrong with his ears.
He Yu said: "After a person dies, a small hole is cut through his heavenly lid and mercury is poured into it. Guess what happens?"
The winter solstice felt a chill rise from the soles of his feet, and he couldn't help but slowly back away and murmured in response: "What will happen?"
He Yu got up and looked at him, with a contented smile: "Bury the person in the ground, and in seven, seven, forty-nine days, the human skin can be completely peeled off."
Winter Solstice laughed dryly: "Nonsense, how is this possible?"
"Why is it impossible, I did it!" He Yu seemed to be unhappy at his rebuttal, his face sank, his eyes widened, and the dim light of the lantern reflected on his face, inexplicably strange.
"But a pair of human skins can only make one lantern at most. My lantern is about to break, so just use you as my next lantern!"
After He Yu finished speaking, he laughed.
On the winter solstice, the hair all over his body was about to explode. He couldn't bear it any longer. He threw the mineral water bottle he took a few sips at, and then turned around and ran!
He Yu reached out and grabbed at the top of his head. It seemed unpleasant, but the Winter Solstice couldn't avoid it. Instead, he was caught straight.
Dongzhi opened his eyes wide and opened his mouth slightly, and the fear at that moment tightly gripped his heart.
He suddenly discovered that once a person is extremely frightened, he can't even scream for help.
The next moment, his hair was already grabbed by He Yu.
It's over, I'm going to be made into a human skin lantern!
Winter Solstice thought this way, and suddenly felt a chill on his forehead.
Like ice water dripping on the eyebrows, penetrated the skin, and went straight to the bottom of the heart, the whole person suddenly shivered.
The eyes are bright, and the surrounding scenery changes with it!
There are no dark and gloomy carriages, no living dead passengers like wax figures, and no He Yu carrying a human-skin lantern.
There was only one strange man.
Winter Solstice was panting, covered in cold sweat, his face was pale, his mouth opened and closed, but he couldn't say a word.
He must feel like a dehydrated frog right now.
This man has a pair of good-looking peach blossom eyes, but his eyes are calm and unwavering, as if the wind and the rain can't make any waves.
Seeing him, the winter solstice felt that the portraits he had painted before that claimed to have the golden ratio of facial features were instantly eclipsed.
Solitary light is self-illuminating, and the liver and gallbladder are ice and snow.
He completely forgot his dangerous situation, and this sentence popped into his mind unconsciously.
Shouldn't this be a living person
Winter Solstice stared at each other, but did not feel afraid.
Seeing that he was stupid, the other party frowned slightly, stretched out his slender fingers, pinched his chin firmly, and lifted his head up.
The warm breath came oncoming, with the smell of ice and snow and green pine, pulling back the sanity of the winter solstice a little.
His face was hot, and he subconsciously wanted to step back, but he couldn't get away from the man's hand, and the man pinched his chin faintly.
At this time, the man took the initiative to let go of his hand and bent down to pick up the mineral water bottle he just threw away.
Looking around at the winter solstice, there were some passengers sitting around, looking at them strangely.
There's no stiff expression, and it's not like a zombie.
He secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but he didn't dare to completely let go.
"Is this bottle of water yours?" the man asked.
The voice line is neither low nor high, unlike the usual wine used to describe a good sound.
The winter solstice reminded me of a perfume I smelled.
Mixed with the coolness of the moss after the rain, and the gorgeousness of the pond full of lotus, it is hard to forget.
Everything about this man, like that perfume, came suddenly, without a trace, and was full of deadly charm.
He nodded: "Just bought it in the dining car... Oh no, I helped a passenger look after the child. She bought a bottle of water to thank me."
What happened just now was too bizarre and fantastical, but he vaguely realized that if it wasn't for this man just now, he might not have woken up yet. He hurriedly thanked the other party and asked, "What happened just now? Is there something wrong with that bottle of water?"
The man hummed, but didn't answer a question.
But the winter solstice couldn't be angry. He found that the other party was looking at the bottle of water in his hand, focused and dignified, just like looking at a time bomb.
Winter Solstice couldn't help but ask again: "Who are you? Just now on my forehead..."
Before he finished asking, He Yu ran over.
"Boss!" He Yu accompanies the smiling face, and is actually a little humble to please.
The man glanced at him: "I asked you to stay on No. 6, where have you gone?"
He Yu scratched his head: "I went to the toilet. I heard movement here, so I came quickly."
The man sneered: "When you come over, the daylily is cold! What should I do when I go back, do you know?"
He Yu was dejected: "Got it, write a review."
He looked at the winter solstice again: "Why are you here, are you alright?"
The winter solstice remembered the scene just now, and was alert, forced a smile, and said nothing.
The man said to He Yu: "You stay to solve this matter."
How to deal with it? Shouldn't it be killing people? The winter solstice was startled. Seeing the man leave, he was about to turn around and slip away, but was picked up by He Yu and led back.
He Yu hugged his shoulders before meeting him, and said with a hilarious smile, "Big brother, let's talk!"
"There's nothing to talk about." Dongzhi forced himself to calm down.
He Yu was suspicious: "What did you see just now, why are you suddenly afraid of me?"
The current He Yu is bright and cheerful, with a righteous face, which is completely different from the treacherous darkness in the fantasy world. The winter solstice asks carefully, "Do you use human skin lanterns?"
"What human skin lantern?" He Yu was inexplicable, not like a fake.
The Winter Solstice breathed a sigh of relief, and briefly explained what happened to him after he left the dining car.
He Yu touched his chin: "So, there should be something wrong with that bottle of water."
Winter Solstice was startled: "What's the problem?"
He Yu nodded: "Do you want to hear the truth or the lie?"
The Winter Solstice asked: "What is the lie?"
He Yu said: "The lie is that there are hallucinogens in the water, and you have been drugged, so you have hallucinations."
Winter Solstice: "What about the truth?"
He Yu: "The truth is that the bottle of water contains demonic energy. If you drink the demonic energy into your stomach, you will be confused and hallucinated."
Winter Solstice: "...The lie seems to be more believable."
He Yu shrugged: "People always like to deceive themselves. Whatever you like to believe, just believe it!"
He pointed to himself and said aggrieved: "Look at me carefully, how am I like a bad person?"
Especially like. Winter Solstice said silently.
He watched Sister Xu buy that bottle of water with his own eyes. It only took a few minutes to go back and forth. When it arrived in his hands, it was still brand new and unopened. Besides, what was the plan for giving him medicine? Robbery? robbery? No matter how you look at him, he is not a good target.
The winter solstice is at a loss, thinking of the strange things I have encountered frequently since I set foot on this train.
Passengers who disappeared out of thin air in the toilet, dreams in the middle of the night, and hallucinations just now.
He is sure that he is mentally normal and has no inherited mental illness, so there is only one explanation.
What He Yu said is true.
Blinking his eyes, Winter Solstice asked slowly, "I drank those water with demonic energy, will it be okay?"
He Yu: "Of course, you just drank the demonic energy in it. It will take root and sprout in your stomach, and then burst out of your stomach, and you will be dead by then."
The winter solstice reminds me of the scene in the movie "Alien", and my body suddenly feels cold.
He asked timidly, "Really?"
He Yu burst into laughter: "Of course it's fake, you can believe it if you lie to children!"
winter solstice:…
"Okay, okay!" He Yu reached out and rubbed his hair, like a silly and sweet child, "Actually, I didn't lie to you, even if you drink the whole bottle of water, it will be fine, there There is not much demonic energy, the boss has already helped you resolve it just now, there will be no sequelae!"
The winter solstice didn't intend to pay attention to He Yu, but the anger was dissipated by the other party's rubbing, and he couldn't help but ask: "What the hell is on this train? Who are you?"
