Hearing the sound, Brother Lei and Fang Zhi were so frightened that they shivered all over. They stumbled back two steps and almost fell to the ground.
Facing the fear of the two, the woman's expression was flat. She sat up from the bed, looked at the painting in Gu Xizhou's hand, and said, "Is my painting good-looking?"
"Who is painted on this?" Gu Xizhou's tone was flat, pointing to the painting of three men.
The woman looked at the words in Gu Xizhou's hand, with a gentle look in her eyes, and said, "I remember I told you that I'm coming back to visit relatives."
"Is this your relative?" Si Yu pointed at the three men above in a questioning tone, raising his eyebrows slightly.
The woman nodded, "They are my cousins."
Gu Xizhou stared at the painting and took a closer look at the three young people in the painting. The three of them looked very ordinary, but they looked decent, with smiles in their eyes, very gentle.
"They are nothing like your father."
A clear, clean voice whispered this simple fact.
The woman who was still smiling just now, the smile on her face froze, and looked at him indifferently, with the look of a dead man.
Gu Xizhou stepped forward to block Si Yu and the woman, and the two looked at each other silently.
Brother Lei was trembling all over. He was very afraid that Gu Ran and Si Yaoxing would accidentally provoke a woman. After all, Gu Ran could be a demon.
"It's time to eat, you all go down." The woman gave Gu Xizhou one last look, her eyes were red, and she was obviously very angry, but she slowly restrained her gaze with Gu Xizhou.
Gu Xizhou smiled at her, "Okay."
After the three of them left the room, inside the door, the woman turned around and put the painting on the easel again.
When everyone left Lin Meng's room, Brother Lei and Fang Zhi let out a long sigh, their hands and feet softened, "I just said that she doesn't look like her father, is it necessary to be so scary? Fuck!"
Brother Lei was leaning against the wall, and he was a little unsteady. Fang Zhi even helped him to walk, Fang Zhi nodded and said, "My legs are so frightened!"
"Wait, there are still two rooms upstairs that I haven't seen." Gu Xizhou said.
"Still watching?" Brother Lei was obviously frightened, and when he heard Gu Xizhou's words, he didn't react.
"You are afraid to wait for me downstairs." Gu Xizhou said lightly.
After speaking, Gu Xizhou opened the hostess' room and walked in. The strange thing was that there was no one in the room. Gu Xizhou was a little surprised. The things in the room were very simple, except for a bed and a mirror. He hurriedly opened the door of another grandfather's and grandma's room. There was also no one inside. There was a coat mirror behind the door.
Gu Xizhou and Si Yu looked at each other, and at the same time returned to the master's study. There was indeed a mirror behind the door of the study. Gu Xizhou looked back at the open door of Lin Meng's room. There was no mirror behind the door.
After going downstairs, several people integrated the information they had just collected, but because of the continuous death after coming to this world, the suppressed emotions and fears made Brother Lei lose his usual calmness. He is now like a newcomer. In the next living room, he just grabbed the corner of Fang Zhi's clothes.
"What to do, what to do now? What the hell is going on in this world?"
Gu Xizhou, who came down, immediately said to Brother Lei in a deep voice: "Calm down, think about it first."
There was silence in the hall, and finally Si Yu was the first to speak, "Brother Lei, now only the four of us are still alive, you calm down first, Gu Ran is right, we must find the rules before we can leave here."
"Let's talk about what you have discovered just now. After all, one person's consideration is not so comprehensive."
"The picture of the baby is very simple. The baby is actually Lin Meng's daughter, so when Gu Ran said 'her sister died' that day, she said that the baby is not her sister."
"Do you still remember the paintings we saw before? In fact, Lin Meng's paintings are understood in a different way."
The first painting: Lin Meng himself
The second painting: Lin Meng and his sister
The third painting: Lin Meng's father and sister
Fourth painting: family portrait
Gu Xizhou recalled the painting and nodded slightly.
Si Yu continued: "The second and third paintings can also be understood as: mother and daughter, father and daughter."
"That baby... What the hell, can't you?" Brother Lei heard Si Yu's words, and his expression changed, "My own daughters are going to start, fuck, beasts are not as good!"
"No... I don't think it's my own..."
"I... I noticed those pictures in the study room. It seems that there are only pictures of Lin Meng after he was five years old, and there are no pictures before. This is very strange." Fang Zhi said.
Brother Lei was startled: "What's so strange about this?"
Fang Zhi: "...It's just intuition."
Brother Lei: "...Damn intuition, this damn place, can intuition be useful?"
Gu Xizhou shook his head and said, "I understand what Xiaofang means. Do you remember when Si Yaoxing said to her 'they are nothing like your father'?"
Of course they remembered, because of this sentence, they all thought that they would not see the sun tomorrow!
"We can understand it another way. It's not that the man doesn't want to put pictures of Lin Meng before the age of five, but he doesn't have any pictures of Lin Meng before the age of five. Lin Meng may not be a man's daughter at all. That's why Lin Meng's three My cousin and Lin Meng's father are nothing alike." Gu Xizhou said.
When Si Yu heard Gu Xizhou's words, he was only stunned for a moment, and he said lightly, "There is such a possibility."
A few people chatted in a low voice, Gu Xizhou glanced upstairs, and continued:
Gu Xizhou: "Si Yaoxing and I just looked at the other two rooms. Except for Lin Meng's room, there is a mirror in the other rooms."
"That is to say, everyone in the house has a mirror of their own, only Lin Meng has no mirror."
Si Yu nodded: "I noticed it too."
Hearing the mirror, Brother Lei couldn't help but feel cold, "Could it be that Lin Meng is that monster?"
Si Yu took over the conversation and said lightly, "It's possible, but I don't think it's very likely."
"Why?"
"Remember how you heard the sound of sharpening knives that night?" Si Yu asked Brother Lei back.
Brother Lei was at a loss, not knowing what Si Yu was trying to express, Fang Zhi seemed to have thought of something, "Brother Lei and the others could hear Lin Meng's sharpening of the knife that night, which means that Lin Meng is very It's possible that you didn't leave the room all night!"
Si Yu nodded: "That's right, Lin Meng didn't leave the room that night, but because we found out that three people were dead only the next day, we can't determine the time of their death, whether the monster is Lin Meng can tell, I think Lin Meng Not a monster."
…
After a few people discussed it, the owner's family upstairs appeared out of thin air. Brother Lei opened his mouth. He remembered that Gu Ran told them that the other two rooms upstairs were empty! Where did these four people come from? But soon he wanted to understand that this was a supernatural world, and there was no logic at all.
After eating dinner tremblingly, the night that Brother Lei hated the most came, he was cold all over, and followed the other three like a follower, "What shall we do tonight?"
He asked in a low voice, because of the light rain last night, he was able to hide in a room with the three of them, but he didn't know how to spend it tonight, although the three of them said during the day that they would not let him be alone at night , but he was still afraid.
Gu Xizhou glanced at his face lightly, and said lightly, "I will sleep alone tonight, and the three of you will share a room."
"No!" Fang Zhi shouted anxiously, "Brother Gu, you are too dangerous alone!"
Si Yu on the side also disagreed, "Tonight we have a room for every two of us, no matter what, it's the last night, let's see if we can escape."
No matter what Gu Xizhou said, Fang Zhi and Si Yu did not agree, but because of the rules, there was a little rain, and the four of them were not in the same room. In the end, they had to share a room. Gu Xizhou and Fang Zhi, Si Yu I and Lei brother.
After the arrangement was made, Brother Lei choked up a little and said to them, "Thank you."
Gu Xizhou glanced at him and said lightly: "You're welcome, if it goes to your room at night, remember to run over to find me."
Yesterday, Brother Lei rushed over and knocked on the door, telling them that Xiaoyu was gone. Under the situation that he was very likely to die, he would not drag them down, but still wanted to save them. Although Gu Xizhou looked down on the few people who were with Brother Lei, Brother Lei still wanted to save them. There is no problem with being the 'leader' of this team, so just now he proposed that he sleep alone.
"Take the mirror with you." Si Yu said suddenly.
Gu Xizhou looked back at him and nodded, "Okay."
Si Yu followed Brother Lei to the room where Brother Lei lived yesterday. The blood in the room had disappeared without a trace, and even the corpses on the ground had disappeared. Brother Lei had no sleepiness, and he didn't take off his clothes, so he just sat on the edge of the bed. , looking upstairs.
Gu Xizhou and Fang Zhi didn't fall asleep either.
"Brother Gu... Can we leave safely?" Fang Zhi's eyes were red and his nose was a little sour.
Gu Xizhou raised his eyes and looked at him: "Don't worry, Brother Gu, I won't sleep tonight, I will keep you safe."
The night fell, and the wind outside the window made the leaves rustling. Fang Zhi couldn't help staring at the mirror in his hand, for fear that something would suddenly emerge from it.
"what-"
In the darkness, there was a shrill, sharp sound, Gu Xizhou pulled Fang Zhi and ran out. As soon as he ran out of the door, he bumped into Si Yu and Brother Lei. Brother Lei's crotch was wet, but he didn't have time to dislike it at this time. He wets his pants.
"Run!"
Si Yu shouted, and when he ran, Fang Zhi looked back at Brother Lei and Si Yu's room. There was a small round mirror on the bed in the room, and something really slowly squeezed out of the mirror. The body had come out, the snake-like head smiled at him, and the mouth was full of teeth, with many, many layers.
As soon as they reached the stairs, they heard a voice: "What's in your clothes?"
Brother Lei pointed at Si Yu and took two steps back.
Si Yu looked down and saw his clothes pocket, a hand emerged from the pocket, slowly going out—
"Fuck!"
Seeing Si Yu's cracked expression, Gu Xizhou asked anxiously, "You brought a mirror?"
"Yes." Si Yu took out the mirror in his bag, and sure enough the monster was squeezing out from the mirror in his hand little by little, and a head came out of it—
"Fuck!" Si Yu didn't dare to let go of the mirror at all, the mirror shattered and people died, he still remembered it!
"what-"
Si Yu suddenly shouted in a hurry: "Mirror, is there any mirror!"
Several people were stunned by this sudden scene, but Gu Xizhou reacted the fastest. He took out the mirror he was carrying on his body from his bag and buckled it on Si Yu's mirror!
…
"No, it's gone, that monster is gone..." Brother Lei saw the mirror being held by Gu Xizhou on the mirror in Si Yu's hand, and the head that tried to get out of the mirror came out, and entered another mirror again.
"It turns out that mirrors can be used like this. As long as the two mirrors are facing each other, the world inside the mirror will form an infinite loop, and it cannot come out to kill!" Gu Xizhou was startled and said.
Si Yu was obviously relieved. He was too frightened just now. He patted Gu Xizhou on the shoulder and said, "Thanks."
Si Yu escaped after the calamity, and before he had time to rejoice, he heard a terrified voice saying—
"Brother Gu, Brother Si... I still have a mirror here..." Fang Zhi glanced at the inside of his clothes that had begun to move, swallowed, and felt that the head of the thing had wrapped around him.
Si Yu's palms went cold, and he shouted to the other party: "Go upstairs, go upstairs quickly, and find Lin Meng! Give her the mirror!"
Hearing Si Yu's words, Fang Zhi was stunned and didn't move, but Gu Xizhou moved faster than Fang Zhi. He grabbed Fang Zhi and rushed upstairs, kicking Lin Meng's door and rushing in!
In the room, Lin Meng was slightly taken aback when he saw the two of them, "Is there something wrong?"
"Sure enough, it's upstairs!" Gu Xizhou hurriedly said to Lin Meng, "I'll give you the mirror on his body!"
"This is not your mirror," Lin Meng glanced at Gu Xizhou, turned his head slowly, and said to Fang Zhi who was beside him, "Will you give me the mirror?"
The fear that Fang Zhi had been suppressing broke out completely. He didn't even need to think about it, he just nodded vigorously, "Give it to you!"
"thank you."
When Lin Meng reached for the mirror, the thing around him suddenly disappeared! Fang Zhi saw the woman take out the mirror from his body. The woman held the mirror and looked at it for a while, not knowing what to do, she stuffed something in his hand.
The woman said lightly, "This is my return gift."
Fang Zhi looked down at the palm of his hand. There was a rough and unpolished mirror in the palm of his hand. He looked back and noticed that the mirror he just gave to the woman just happened to be missing such a round mirror.
Putting the two opposite mirrors on the ground, Si Yu and Brother Lei caught up and saw a strange scene.
She walked to the head of her bed, took out the kitchen knife she had polished for a long time, smiled slightly at the mirror on the bed, and put on a long white dress, just like when the monster came out of the mirror Likewise, her body slowly squeezed into the mirror.
Suddenly there was a tragic cry from downstairs—
A few people hurriedly left Lin Meng's room. The monster downstairs was screaming in pain, and a woman in white was sitting on it. The woman held a polished kitchen knife in her hand and slashed frantically under her. The monster, blood directly splashed to the ground.
"Ahhhh!!!" The monster was slashed to the body, screaming fiercely, slashing with knife after knife... Knowing that the monster in front of him was beyond recognition and could not find a complete piece.
The woman's eyes were red, and after the monster on the ground was completely breathless, she finally stopped her movements, her body slowly collapsed, and a wooden door appeared in the middle of the living room.
"This... what's going on here?" Brother Lei was at a loss, his voice trembled a little, that monster was not Lin Meng!
Si Yu breathed a sigh of relief, sat on the ground panting heavily, and explained, "The monster is not Lin Meng, but four other people."
"Let's go, open the door and go back. I must have a good night's sleep when I go back today, and I will never be a good person again!" Si Yu said with a sigh, his eyes on Gu Xizhou meant something.
Gu Xizhou: "That's not what you said when you asked me to save you just now!"
Si Yu: "… "
Brother Wen Yan Lei didn't want to continue to explore. He didn't want to know anything. During this period of time, he was really depressed by fear and went crazy. After thanking a few people, he opened the door and left first.
Fang Zhi wanted to ask what else, Si Yu glanced at him, fanned the smell of blood in the air, and said lightly, "Go out and talk."
He thought that Gu Xizhou would ask him something, but Gu Xizhou took three steps and took two steps, followed Brother Lei into the doorway.
When Si Yu asked him to go upstairs to find Lin Meng, he had already guessed the rules closely. The world is very simple, and all the conditions that seem to be mortal have corresponding solutions. What he wants to see now is Lin Meng. Dream memory, the most realistic picture about this memory.
Stepping into the door, his consciousness became blurred.
"This is your new home! Do you like it here?" The woman's gentle voice rang in her ears.
Gu Xizhou looked up and saw the familiar villa in front of him, and heard the owner of the body answer the beautiful woman's words: "I like it here, thank you Auntie!"
The woman knocked on the girl's forehead lightly: "I can't call you auntie, I'll call you my mother in the future."
"...Mom." Lin Meng shouted in a low voice with a blushing face.
Lin Meng was sent to the family by relatives and did not follow the legal procedures. Soon, Lin Meng, who had just arrived at this home, met her new father. Her parents, grandparents, and grandparents were very kind to her. She liked them very much, but she still missed her old home.
On the first day she came to this house, the girl had a nightmare. She dreamed that at the moment when her biological parents were in a car accident, her mother protected her with her body. She woke up at night and saw a person sitting beside her bed. .
She was still a little scared and asked in a low voice, "Who are you?"
After turning on the light, she realized that it was her new father sitting beside her bed, and the man nodded slightly to her, "I'm a father, have you had a nightmare?"
"Well..." Lin Meng nodded vigorously.
Man: "Then dad is with you tonight, okay?"
Lin Meng: "Good!"
At night, the girl fell asleep in the man's arms. The man looked down at the sleeping girl and patted her back, as if to comfort her to sleep.
At this time, Gu Xizhou saw pictures one after another in Lin Meng's memory, and time suddenly began to fast-forward.
Lin Meng grew up slowly. When she was about seventeen or eighteen years old, the man who brought her into the house had an inexplicable love for this girl, and confessed to Lin Meng. When Lin Meng refused, the man lost control and committed atrocities after drinking. .
Lin Meng told the rest of the family, and it was disgusting that the other members of the family, they knew it well, but kept silent.
The adoptive mother even persuaded Lin Meng not to disobey the man!
Lin Meng was in great pain, but because the man went abroad for work at this time, she didn't know anyone abroad at all, and her foreign language was not good, so she lived a life of captivity abroad.
Time suddenly jumped to Lin Meng, who was in his twenties. Gu Xizhou judged that Lin Meng should have learned a foreign language because Lin Meng was dressed beautifully and stylishly.
This time, Lin Meng came back to China with her adoptive father and ran into her cousin by chance. She still had memories of being five years old. After contacting her cousin, she was happy for a while, and they kept in touch.
After three years, Lin Meng returned to China again, this time with a baby.
Gu Xizhou saw the familiar villa again. Lin Meng brought three cousins to the house, and later painted that picture for the three cousins by the reservoir.
At this time, Lin Meng had already adjusted his mentality, but until one day—
That night, the baby cried so much, so annoying, that people couldn't sleep, and later at night, the baby didn't cry anymore because the child died.
Lin Meng didn't know how the child died, maybe it was the man or the woman she called her adoptive mother, she didn't know.
Gu Xizhou felt wet on his cheeks, and touched his eyes, it was tears.
Gu Xizhou continued to watch scene after scene inside the woman's body—
The woman cried silently, and he had a hunch that the woman would not survive.
The next day, her three cousins came to see her again. Under the care of her relatives, Lin Meng broke down and told the three cousins everything that had happened in the past few years. The three cousins showed anger. Gritting his teeth while comforting Lin Meng, he will definitely find a way to help her.
After the three cousins left, Lin Meng jumped into the reservoir on the mountainside and committed suicide.
When her three cousins heard the news, they rushed to the villa with kitchen knives in grief and anger, and hacked to death the family of Bie Linmeng's adoptive parents.
When Gu Xizhou saw the last scene, he somewhat understood.
Lin Meng…
In her life, what she regrets most is—because of her own cowardice and indisputableness, it has affected the relatives who really care about her.
The three people's room will not die, that's because Lin Meng is protecting them.
As for the eight-handed monster, it should have been the result of Lin Meng's adoptive parents' family of four. The disgusting and disgusting desire was like a nightmare attached to Lin Meng's body.
As for the mirror...
Because the woman didn't have a mirror, she couldn't kill the monster until Fang Zhi gave her the mirror!
And this time, she's going to do it herself.
Gu Xizhou figured it all out, and the sound of the chain sliding again sounded in Gu Xizhou's ear, and his consciousness returned to reality—
"what-"
"Stop the car!"
Just when the police were about to hit the three of them, a toddler appeared not far in front of them. Beside the child, a woman pulled the child back and used her body to protect the child who was about to be attacked. The children who are transferred into the wheel are extremely thrilling.
Yan Li in the police car stepped on the brakes with one foot. She covered her face with her hands in fear, got out of the car, knelt on the ground, and said in a trembling voice, "You... are you all right! I didn't mean to."
"How did you drive!" The woman cried and scolded her child while holding her child. At this time, a man in a black t-shirt hurried over to help the woman who had just rescued his child, and asked eagerly, "Sister, are you alright? Bar?"
The woman shook her head and said, "It's okay, it's okay... Fortunately, the child is okay, it scared me to death."
The man pursed his lips: "You too, an adopted child who lost his life for her?"
The woman glared at him displeased until the man shut up.
The child didn't seem to know the danger he had just experienced. He laughed at the woman, stretched out his hands, and shouted inarticulately: "Mama, Mama hug."
"If you run around again in the future, I'll hit you!" The child's mother's eyes were red, and she was obviously just frightened. She picked up the child, as if she had just finished her work. left.
The three who had just escaped took a deep breath. Just now, Yan Li saw the mother and son step on the brakes, allowing them to save their lives. At this time, Yan Li was already under the control of the police.
This should be the accident that the mission world arranged for them to save them, Gu Xizhou thought.
Fang Zhi was dumbfounded, and found himself back in the real world, feeling a little unreal. He felt as if there was something in his hand. He opened his palm, and there was a small round mirror on it. It was Lin Meng's return gift to him. All of this was telling him that the things he had experienced before were real, not hallucinations.
"This, this came out..." He trembled.
