Although the first batch of samsara who came to aid was not many, they still broke up the formation of the men in black on the pier.
At first, after the battle of shouting, shouting and killing had subsided a little, there was a whistling sound from the men in black, and a faint smell of blood floated from somewhere. Living in this group of outsiders puts them at a disadvantage.
In the mess, Zhu Yiting's voice was particularly harsh: "Damn, what is this? Why is my prop, the peach wood sword zoom, ineffective?"
"Contaminated." Yongchun replied, "Be careful!"
He dragged his friend and rolled on the ground in embarrassment, escaping the blow of the man in black.
But just when these reincarnators lost to each other, there was another noise from outside.
"it's here-"
A steady stream of reincarnations joined in, and the crowd was overwhelming, causing the men in black in the court to retreat.
Xiao Li jumped onto the pier from the ghost ship, and the man in black who was in charge of the area soon noticed him, but the doll's hair covered the ground like seaweed, and he twisted the opponent's ankle and pulled it down. Zeqing reacted very quickly to the entanglement, which made him have no time to attack the opponent.
And Xiao Li took the opportunity to hurry and ran out. He stayed away from the dock and saw several private cars, bicycles, and even a few scooters parked in front of them. Some of those private cars had their doors wide open, and the keys on the cars were still inserted. I thought it was because the owner was in a hurry, so he opened the door and jumped down.
Xiao Li borrowed the closest car, jumped into the driver's seat, and grasped the steering wheel.
Only Shen Mizhi was with him now, Luo Shan, Ye Zeqing and others joined the team to assist the reincarnators and did not leave with him, while Wang Huai and Gong Mingming left and stuffed some things into his pockets.
Shen Mizhi didn't sit in the co-pilot, he put away the eternal soul umbrella, stood in front of the car window, handed the umbrella to Xiao Li through the window, and then glanced at the sky.
The sky is very dark, and even a cloudy day is not enough to describe the sky. It is as dark as a night after nine o'clock. Not only that, but there are also dull loud noises coming from the sky, and ordinary people will think it is true just by hearing the sound. The thunder fell, but Shen Mizhi's pupils darkened a bit: "The barrier is shattering."
With just one glance, Xiao Li understood what he meant: "You go first."
Shen Mizhi pushed his wet black hair behind his ear with his fingertips, nodded and disappeared.
Xiao Li grabbed the steering wheel, fastened his seat belt, and set up a mobile phone to navigate towards the iconic building.
Xiao Li himself is not very good at driving, but he has never eaten pork and has seen pigs running. Fortunately, the road is very empty now. The car parked downstairs in the towering building and walked to the first floor.
This building used to be a very famous and iconic landmark. Everyone who came to S City would come here for a walk and buy a few souvenirs to take back. Whether it was weekdays or weekends, it was crowded. Unusually quiet.
From the door to the downstairs, Xiao Li walked all the way without making any sound.
When passing the guard room, Xiao Li stopped and glanced inside.
The water cups, express registration forms and other items on the table in the guard room were scattered all over the place, the surveillance video was smashed by someone, a pool of black mud was smeared on the walls, and the guard was nowhere to be seen.
Before entering the first floor completely, he looked up at the heights.
This building is extremely high, with a total of 88 floors. From about the 80th floor up, it seems to be inserted straight into the dark clouds. The rain falls on the outside and cannot be seen clearly, but even so, it can make people feel a kind of palpitations.
This palpitation gets stronger the closer you get to the building, like an intuition admonishing the brain:
Run away!
This kind of feeling has only happened to Xiao Li in rare cases, such as when the goddess of the night descends, or when the god of death descends.
He put away the eternal soul umbrella, stopped looking at the roof, and stepped up to the first floor.
Xiao Li had never visited this building before, but he had also seen photos of the interior. The first floor used to be a lobby for tourists, and there were many counters selling souvenirs, but the interior is different now.
The walls were covered with black mud similar to that of the guard's room. There were such black marks in all directions, and the corners close to the top were densely packed with cracks like cobwebs.
The gaps here are far denser than outside.
Above these cracks, the ceiling was also covered with similar black mud, but Xiao Li looked at it intently, but it was different from the surrounding walls.
If the black mud on the surrounding walls was smeared and rubbed, then the black mud on the ceiling was stepped on.
It's like someone has been somewhere, and the soles of his feet are stained with black mud, and "he" walks on the ceiling, over and over, back and forth, and finally stepped on the ceiling black, and the shape of the footprints can still be vaguely seen .
Xiao Li bent down and picked up a souvenir scattered on the ground, it was a miniature version of the crystal statue of the building.
Tan Li rolled up the thing with his hair and approached the crack. The crack was like a sharp knife, and it easily cut through the statue, making a slight "click" sound.
Xiao Li let out a sigh of relief, bypassed these cracks, and walked towards the observation elevator in the depths.
The deeper he went, a rotten smell with a strong bloody smell rushed towards him, and the black mud on the walls became thicker and thicker. He had to carefully avoid these cracks and avoid them.
When Xiao Li pressed the elevator button, the muffled sound in the sky seemed to burst in his ears, and the whole building was crumbling.
When the muffled sound disappeared again, the black mud that had solidified in the whole building "flowed" down from the walls, and there was a sound from every floor, as if ghosts had descended, and it seemed as if the power had recovered.
The black mud dripped into the corners, forming pools of black water.
Xiao Li entered the elevator without looking sideways. He pressed the elevator button and found that it was still usable.
With a "ding" sound, the elevator opened.
However, at this time, Xiao Li did not have the warm yellow lights that would appear in ordinary elevators. Some were just darkness. There were no lights in the elevator, and they should not have been able to be used, but it was waiting for the prey to enter with its mouth wide open.
Without Xiao Li to speak, the lamp ghost had jumped out and got into the elevator first, and its own light illuminated everything in the elevator.
Like the outside walls, the inside of the elevator is also covered with black mud, and the small space looks more like some kind of creature's lair.
But for Xiao Li, as long as this kind of nest can move freely, then he has to go in.
He walked into the elevator, pressed the button on the top floor, and watched the elevator door slowly closing in front of him.
The elevator is going up.
The panel went from the "first floor" to the "eighty floor", just when the number just jumped to "eighty", the elevator that was rising steadily swayed and suddenly stopped.
The door didn't open, it was still on the eightieth floor.
Xiao Li reached out and pressed the door button, but there was no response.
"Fizz, fizz..."
Above the elevator, as if something was lying on top of the iron sheet, it was slowly approaching, skin, nails or bones were rubbing against the iron sheet...
Xiao Li closed his eyes, he could feel some kind of malicious gaze, not only from the top of his head, but also from all sides of the whole building, they wanted to stop him, leave him, and kill him.
He should be scared, but Xiao Li was even faintly excited, excited and looking forward to it, and decided to share this emotion with others.
He pondered for a moment, took out the little yellow book, and called out the gaping girl.
The rip woman was wearing a thick scarf. The elevator was not big at first. With her presence, it seemed even more crowded.
Above the mouth covered by the scarf, she looked at Xiao Li with a pair of puzzled eyes and put a question mark.
Xiao Li pointed to the top of her head, and gestured to her huge pair of scissors, making a motion like cutting a watermelon.
Needless to say, the cracked girl had noticed the creature at the top of the elevator the first time she came. Coupled with Xiao Li's movements, she also followed the other's fingers and raised her head, and pulled the half-human hand out with both hands. Tall scissors.
The sharp pointed tips of the scissors were pointed directly at the top of the elevator, and it was moved slowly, like a butcher looking at the pork in front of him, hesitating where to start.
In order to avoid accidental injury, the small bulb chose to hide in the corner of the top of the head.
The monster above the iron sheet of the elevator is also looking at the inside. It can't see the inside. It only judges by the sound, thinking about where to break the iron.
"Snapped."
The cracked woman turned her body, and at the moment when the iron sheet on the top of her head was torn by sharp nails, a blood-skinned, elongated humanoid monster rushed out. Its nails were very long and its bones were deformed, which was very deterrent.
But what awaited it in the elevator was not a lamb waiting to be fed, but a huge pair of scissors and a strange woman in a scarf.
The woman was so powerful that she poked the scissors upwards.
Whispering.
Disembodied.
He directly pierced the chest of the elevator monster with scissors and nailed it to the top of the elevator.
"His, hiss, hiss."
The monster let out a shrill cry, struggled for a while, and finally stopped moving on the constantly opening and closing scissors.
What flowed from its ruptured belly was not its internal organs or intestines, but a puddle of black mud, exactly like the surrounding black mud.
After confirming that the monster was dead, the woman with a rift put away her scissors in disgust, and was about to leave, but was stopped by Xiao Li: "Come down and have a look?"
The woman with the crack seemed to realize something, she tilted her head and looked at Xiao Li for a while, and finally turned around and closed the scissors, using it as a prying board to force open the elevator door.
The scene outside the door is more serious than the first floor. If the first floor is black soil and a little water droplets, then this floor is like a swamp. The black soil is mixed with liquid to form a strange carpet, and the cracks above are more and more. More and more, Xiao Li needs to lower his head slightly to ensure that he is not cut open.
A small light bulb sprang out of the elevator and hung over the original corridor, acting as a moving lamp.
At the end of its movement, a shadow flashed past.
Xiao Li only had time to capture a phantom, which seemed to be a person, wearing the work clothes of this building, as if he was running away in panic.
Catch up!
Xiao Li made a decision, he stepped into the corridor and chased in the direction where the shadow disappeared.
He chased two corridors, and endless strands of hair stretched out before him, wrapping around the figure in front of him.
Before the safety stairs, the doll successfully wrapped around the figure, wrapping her like a chrysalis.
The staff member was struggling on the ground, Xiao Li approached him, and just wanted Tan Li to let him go, but only heard the sound of "giggle", the staff in the hair curled up, the original coils were scattered. Come on, all the bones in the body are rustling.
Tan Li did not let go of the entanglement, but this person was like a spider, she twisted her hands and her shoulders, and broke free from the entanglement of her hair.
While making these moves, she kept staring at Xiao Li.
After facing each other like this, Xiao Li could see clearly that although the woman in front of him was wearing the uniform of the staff, the black mud flowing from her mouth and nostrils was all covered by her own hair. Half cut by the crack, she was already dead, but was brought back to life by some kind of supernatural power.
The woman looked at Xiao Li, her waist and shoulder bones were dislocated, which made her walking extremely difficult.
Xiao Li looked at her: "Can I ask you a few questions?"
The woman stared at her for a while, then looked at the woman with a gaping mouth behind him, and smiled suddenly.
This smile made the black mud in her mouth flow down her chin more: "You have to answer my question first."
She spoke in a slurred, stuttering, jaw-like sound of dislocating bones each time.
Xiao Li: "You ask."
The woman's eyes fell on the black mud on her chest, and the fonts originally printed on it had been polluted by the black water and blurred.
She thought for a while and said, "When did I die?"
Xiao Li: "You don't know when you died?"
"Answer me, I will, answer you." The woman held her chin, as if afraid that it would fall by itself when she spoke, "If the answer is wrong, I will kill you."
Xiao Li lowered his head and groped for a pen from his pocket, then turned back to the woman who had split mouth and said, "Make up the number."
Cracked Girl: ? ?
Before the cracked woman's fingers stretched out, Xiao Li turned her head and said to the woman, "Wait, I'll find a friend to answer your question."
After he finished speaking, without waiting for the woman's answer, he held the pen and read the words of summoning the pen fairy. Of course, he reduced it himself: "Pen fairy, help answer the question."
He released his hand, and the pen swayed left and right after a brief stagnation, as if looking for a place to write. It first moved towards Xiao Li, then towards the Crack Girl, and finally flew to the lamp ghost overhead, outside its light bulb. The cover reads:
[What about paper? ? !]
Xiao Li said, "It's too dark here and it's inconvenient. You write it in the air, and I'll read it for you."
Pen Immortal: [… ]
I sharked you.
He repeated the question asked by the woman opposite: "When did you calculate her death?"
The pen circled in place, "looking at" the staff, and then wrote in the air in front of Xiao Li: [Half an hour, three minutes and seventeen seconds ago.]
Xiao Li read it out truthfully and said to her, "It's time for me to ask you, what do you remember?"
The woman didn't seem to have recovered from the shock of the pen fairy's appearance. She was silent for a long time this time before replying with a skeletal sound: "Very, suddenly, want, obey, order, think, eat people."
She is a human who died here. After her death, she was transformed into a ghost by the invading supernatural power. If it cannot be stopped, such an end will be the fate of most people.
"How did I die?" the woman asked again.
Pen Immortal: [Assaulted by ghosts, the fatal injury is hitting a crack that is being materialized.]
"I don't remember, but, I think, I want you to join us." The woman turned her head, and every time she moved, the bones in the corresponding parts would make a "cluck" sound. There were more and more voices, and more such voices came from behind her, and the staff who died here gathered around here one after another.
"join us."
The exact same voice, the interlacing of bones, the sound of footsteps, makes people shudder.
"… "
"Go first."
Xiao Li pulled open the safety door in front of him, grabbed the pen fairy who wanted to leave, and ran up the safety stairs.
The Ripped Girl followed closely. She glanced back at the ghosts who also wanted to run up the stairs. She wanted to put her scissors across the door handles on both sides of the security door, but she couldn't help herself. Two seconds later, she chose to fight. She snapped her fingers and summoned the I.T. and others from the same hospital. Then she pulled the I.D.I.C.'s trolley, blocked the door, grabbed the two of them and started chasing Sherlock in front.
The bitch let out a roar of reluctance.
And Bi Xian was angrily struggling in Xiao Li's hands, Xiao Li said to Bi Xian as he climbed the stairs: "Wait a minute, let me introduce you, just get to know some new friends, look, this is a cracked girl, Hey, the one from the back is here too, that's a drip, that's a ponytail."
Then he repeated the same words to the gaping girl: "This is the pen fairy, you can call her Abi."
They also responded to Xiao Li's words:
"Moriarty, you're so annoying!"
"I'm not deaf, you don't have to repeat it a second time, Sherlock."
