Chapter 190: Freak show

Views:

Cui Zuojing was taken aback by Dong Zheng's cry. He had never seen Dong Zheng lose his temper like this before. When Lin Hangzhi was frightened, he would let out a standard girlish scream. Dong Zheng gave a very short sound, and he was so full of energy that he sank into his dantian, and almost didn't break Cui Zuojing's eardrum.

Dong Zheng's punch in this stressful state should not be underestimated. The female ghost hanging upside down on the ceiling was beaten up like a swing. She let out a scream from nowhere, her nose bleeds wildly, and she covered her face and shrank. went back.

Dong Zheng didn't even look at her again, he turned back and kicked the closed door behind him, pushed Cui Zuojing in first, followed by himself.

The bed under him was soft, and the young man was riding one leg on top of him, heavy.

His heart was still beating wildly uncontrollably. Dong Zheng was really frightened. When he was facing the female ghost, his whole body was numb. He tried his best to breathe smoothly, and did not forget to continue to provide night vision to Cui Zuojing. Support, take the time to observe the room.

This time the door was closed, and no strange creatures appeared. The door of the closet was half open, and Victor was lying on the inside, his cat's eyes glowing slightly, and he was vigilantly searching for the strangeness.

There seems to be nothing inexplicable.

Dong Zheng didn't take it lightly. He was thinking about getting up early just in case, when he heard Cui Zuojing whisper in his ear: "You are too good at barking."

The hot air sprayed on his sensitive ears, and behind the seemingly normal words there was an inexplicable ambiguous meaning. Dong Zheng didn't miss the slyness in Cui Zuojing's eyes. He was silent, raised his hand and rubbed the boy's head indiscriminately. took a handful.

Cui Zuojing rubbed his ears, thinking that Dong Zheng was so frightened that he wanted to laugh, but soon, he couldn't laugh anymore.

Something wet rubbed against his calf.

Dong Zheng also felt an unusual and strange touch, and his heart suddenly swayed again, his palms sweated a little, and he breathed lightly.

There was no sound in the room for a while.

The quilt moved imperceptibly.

Dong Zheng closed his eyes, and the next moment, he and Cui Zuojing lifted the quilt and got out of bed at the same time, and saw the thing that had been hidden at their feet from the beginning—

It was a man, or rather, a man without limbs.

His whole body is like a silkworm, squirming on the bed, without arms, his torso only reaches between his crotch, and the mutilated part grows into a hemispherical shape. What should have been a middle-aged man's face was covered with large black paint, especially around his eyes. Obviously, it looks like it has just crawled out of the mud swamp.

He turned his head to stare at Dong Zheng, and slowly raised a weird smile.

The huge defect made Dong Zheng feel a blockage in his throat. It was hard for him to believe that the man in front of him was also the same kind. The fear engraved in the instinct of the creature rose up. This thing didn't seem to be dangerous, but no one dared to approach it rashly.

The situation was deadlocked, and Victor jumped onto the foot of the bed and tentatively touched his "tail" with his paw.

Nothing happens.

Boom! dong dong dong!

The knock on the door suddenly sounded, Cui Zuojing raised his eyes to look at the door, Dong Zheng was still staring at the thing, he endured nausea and was alert to all possible changes.

The man stick opened his mouth, and a thin and long tongue hung down from his mouth, approaching Dong Zheng like a life.

Dong Zheng's heart was beating wildly, he raised the lamp on the bedside table expressionlessly, and showed with practical actions that as long as that thing dared to do anything strange to him, there would be absolutely no good fruit to eat.

The knocking on the door continued, and it became more and more urgent as time passed by.

Cui Zuojing slept by the window. He walked around the bed and opened the door.

The door was slammed open, but there was no one behind, and the corridor was dark.

Cui Zuojing lowered his eyes. A letter was placed on the ground at the door. He leaned over and picked it up. The logo of Hell Circus was printed on the flame paint.

"I got the invitation." Cui Zuojing went back to the room and closed the door. He raised the envelope in Dong Zheng's hand and said, "Don't worry about him, think of a way to leave first."

Dong Zheng nodded, he still held the lamp at the human stick, handed the Tang Dao to Cui Zuojing, stepped back and walked to the door before turning around and stepping into the corridor again.

The slender, sticky strip wrapped around his ankle the moment he stepped out.

Swah—

The blade flashed, and the tongue was quickly retracted before being cut off, and it was almost dodged.

Cui Zuojing snorted coldly and walked beside Dong Zheng with the knife in his backhand.

I don't know which one of the 208 is the exit. Dong Zheng observed it carefully and tried to dig some clues.

The screams belonging to other people in the parallel space continued, and it sounded more and more tragic. Cui Zuojing clearly heard Wang Que burst out with a burst of unspeakable words, "Fuck, fuck, fuck", Xia Qiongyun burst out drinking A "run!" and even something good about what they're going through.

In this elusive chaos, a burst of singing appeared.

Victor's ears turned slightly towards the front to better capture the sound, and his hearing was quickly strengthened, so Cui Zuojing could clearly hear that it was a woman's singing.

She sang in a language that Cui Zuojing didn't understand, but it was possible that she couldn't hear the pronunciation because of the distance. Anyway, Cui Zuojing didn't know what she was singing, so she could only hear the sadness in the song, and wrapped around him faintly .

It's a pity that Cui Zuojing can't have empathy.

And Dong Zheng and Victor had uncontrollable sadness in their hearts. Dong Zheng's spirit is so stable, it is impossible to be deeply affected in a short period of time, so they ignore it, and Victor's body has a faint white light, directly Purify this negative effect.

Without any language and eye contact, the two of them tacitly chose to move in the direction of singing.

The corridor was straight, with only two directions, front and back. The singing was vague but could be heard getting closer and closer. Finally, they stopped in front of a door.

That's it, the sound came from inside.

Dong Zheng clung to the lamp in his hand, always on alert for another ghost to appear and kill him in the face. After making complete psychological preparations, he pushed open the door abruptly.

Hearing came before sight, and the singing became incomparably clear, so close at hand, right in... his ear? !

Dong Zheng suddenly opened his eyes, and beside him was where Cui Zuojing was supposed to be lying. At this moment, there was a woman lying on her stomach. She had long golden curly hair, which was scattered on the pillow, and a few thin strands were placed on Dong Zheng's shoulders. , a young face is beautiful, the red lips open and close, and there is an ethereal and sad song.

She wasn't wearing anything, the quilt was placed on her back and she could clearly see the scenery inside, and her proud figure was very impactful.

The woman looked down at Dong Zheng, her eyes were as affectionate as a lover, with a captivating charm.

It's a pity that all this is of no use to Dong Zheng. The firewall and shielding field have resisted all hypnosis and charm for him, and the heart that does not respond to female creatures also keeps his eyes from straying, and he is not tempted at all.

Dong Zheng stood up, grabbed the quilt and threw it, covering the woman tightly, making sure that neither Cui Zuojing nor Victor were there, he frowned slightly, pointed at her with the lamp, and asked bluntly, "What should I do? go out?"

The beauty tore the quilt off her face angrily, looking at the stinky man in front of her who wanted to tear it apart. Seeing that Dong Zheng was not affected by her at all, she had to stop singing embarrassingly and pointed to the wardrobe.

Dong Zheng turned his head to look, and at this moment, the wind swept through, and he had been prepared for a short time to hide, and the fish tail slammed on the cabinet door, directly smashing several hideous cracks!

Dong Zheng finally saw that below her waist was a black fish tail covered with moss and stained with water plants!

The mermaid of the sewer

The famous horror movie flashed in his mind, Dong Zheng opened the broken wardrobe door and got in between the mermaid's next attack.

He was back in the hallway again.

With the lamp in his hand, Dong Zhengcai felt a strange feeling in the chest of his jacket. He reached out and touched it and found that the envelope that Cui Zuojing had obtained from the door before was stuffed inside.

Cui Zuojing and Victor didn't know where they went, but he shouldn't have to worry about it. The envelope contained an invitation letter, and Dong Zheng tucked it away and walked forward.

Da da da…

The footsteps went from far to near, and in a blink of an eye, they came to the front. There was nowhere to hide in the corridor. Dong Zheng could only watch a group of people with a height of no more than one meter running over. They have the height of a child, but the head on their shoulders is undoubtedly the same as that of an adult. They have bloated bodies, stubby hands and feet, and wear colorful costumes. They are bouncing around Dong Zheng. an unknown dance.

This is a bunch of dwarfs.

That piece of heavy make-up, but it can be seen that the face of not less than 30 years old is growing on the small body, revealing the horror of curiosity, in the dark corridor, it is extremely strange.

Dong Zheng has almost understood what these are at this time. In his impression, in addition to circus performances, another thing is popular in American circuses in the last century - freak shows.

These anomalous and deformed creatures-themed exhibitions were once quite popular, and then gradually withdrew from the stage of history with the introduction of relevant laws, but they did not disappear completely, and still appear in carnivals and TV shows from time to time.

Siamese, mermaids, dwarfs, amputated limbs, mouthless girls... These people are all freak show actors, serving the circus and acting as the "npc" for this selection.

After thinking about it, Dong Zheng was no longer afraid. Since he was a human being, it was much easier to handle.

The dwarfs danced in circles. Surrounded by the dwarfs, Dong Zheng was unable to move an inch, so he had to push open the nearest door.

Cui Zuojing sat in the preparation room behind the auditorium, and opened the curtain to see where the performance venue was at a glance. A lot of spectators have come in, the lights illuminate their bizarre bodies and faces, Victor is lying on his knees, the staff on the stage is warming up, Cui Zuojing held his cheeks and asked the clown sitting next to him: "Why did you suddenly get us out?"

"You and Victor are at most special guests, so don't participate in other people's admission assessment." The clown has already drawn the outfits for tonight's performance, wearing a large clown costume and holding a round red Nose, "You came here this time to find me specifically, do you want to get back your feelings?"

"On the one hand, I also want to ask if there is a way to break your blood contract. After all, it's quite uncomfortable to have your life tied to someone else." Cui Zuojing pinched the tip of Victor's tail and asked, "How is it? ? Haven't encountered any trouble again?"

"Not yet except for kether. But your master..."

"His name is Dong Zheng." Cui Zuojing said.

"He met something in the space box that had been locked in it for a long time, and unfortunately it became the source of infection," the clown put out his index finger and touched Cui Zuojing's forehead, stared into his eyes, and said, "And you, too, were infected. already."
