Song Qingluo remembered that her first confession was perhaps too euphemistic for Lin Banxia. If it wasn't for the fact that they entered the world of 47777 and experienced all that, Song Qingluo would not have known how many detours she would have to take with Lin Banxia. After careful reflection, he decided to say anything to Lin Banxia in the future, lest the slow-witted family member of his family would not understand.

On a hot summer day, a cold beer paired with a delicious barbecue is a real treat, and before you know it, it's time for the show to end in the middle of the night. Lin Banxia was very full, a little drunk, but still sober. While Song Qingluo and Li Ye were cleaning up the mess, Lin Banxia and Li Su walked to the side.

Li Su handed a cigarette to Lin Banxia, lit it himself, took a sip, and said vaguely, "What's the matter with the bottle?"

Lin Banxia said, "I saw it in a shop in the town. I thought it was a little familiar. It looked like your villa, so I bought it."

Li Su said, "What's the boss like?"

Lin Banxia described it, but Li Su's expression didn't look like he knew him.

"It's weird." Li Su scratched his hair. "How could it be printed on the bottle? Could it be someone playing a prank? It's not reasonable..."

Lin Banxia agreed: "Could it be that someone has a grudge against your family? Are you deliberately disgusting?"

Li Su was silent: "It's unlikely." He exhaled again, and his tone became more helpless, "Don't look at this villa is new, it is actually renovated, and it is quite old... This town has always been It is a porcelain maker. It used to be very famous, and it also made tributes. Later, it gradually declined. In recent years, the business development is not bad... "

Lin Banxia said, "Your ancestors should be very powerful, right?" In fact, judging from their words and deeds, it can be seen that Li Su and Song Qingluo are the kind of people who have received a good family education. All have an elegant taste.

Li Su said, "Yeah, my ancestors were high officials, and then they fell into decline. My family was not bad when I was a child, at least it can be renovated for such a big house." He blinked, Because of albinism, even his eyelashes are white, and they are shining brightly under the light. "I have been weak and sick since I was a child, and my family has always spoiled me. I also enjoy it for granted... Unfortunately, later... " When he said this, he did not continue, extinguished the cigarette in his hand, and showed a lonely look.

Before Li Su finished speaking, Lin Banxia could also see that there must have been a big change back then, otherwise Li Su would not have become what he is now.

Li Su was quiet for a while, and said, "I still don't feel right about this. I'll go to that store tomorrow and ask again."

Lin Banxia said, "Okay, I'll be with you when the time comes, by the way..."

Li Su said, "Huh?"

"Are the photos on your third floor the previous owners of the house?" Lin Banxia recalled the abnormal situation he saw in the photos.

"Yes." Li Su said, "what's the matter?"

"Has nothing strange happened in this house?" Lin Banxia asked.

"What do you mean? What did you see?" Li Su wondered, "Although I lived in this house back then, I haven't come back for more than ten years, and it has been redecorated several times in the middle. It's normal to know... what's wrong with you seeing the photo?"

Lin Banxia said: "Yes, I saw that the person in the photo seemed to move."

"Tsk." Li Su said, "This is an ordinary person, and he will definitely say that you are dazzled, but we are doing this, so to be on the safe side, take Song Qingluo to see him. He is more sensitive to these things."

Lin Banxia thought about it as well. He was terribly slow to death. Maybe those things were floating in front of him and he didn't notice it. Song Qingluo had to look at this matter.

"That's it for today." Li Su said, "It's getting late, you should go to rest. Travel is a good opportunity to increase your relationship." He winked at Lin Banxia.

Lin Banxia showed helplessness and asked Li Su not to make such a wretched expression with such a beautiful face.

Over there, Song Qingluo and Li Ye were almost done packing, and each led their partner back to their room.

Lin Banxia took a shower after entering the room, lying on the bed and playing with her phone. Soon Song Qingluo also came over from the bathroom, with no clothes on her upper body and dripping water.

Lin Banxia hurried over to take a look.

Song Qingluo said, "What are you looking at?"

Lin Banxia said righteously: "See if your wound is okay—" He looked more closely.

Song Qingluo's figure is very good, with wide shoulders and narrow waist, a standard inverted triangle, smooth-line eight-pack abs and not exaggerated pectoral muscles, which make him perfectly fit the aesthetics of Asians. Lin Banxia saw a faint red line in the center of his abdomen, running through half of his body, which was the wound after healing.

Lin Banxia licked her lips and felt a pain in her mouth—the wound was cut open by him.

Song Qingluo thought that Lin Banxia was taking advantage of him, and was about to laugh and say a few jokes, but found that Lin Banxia's eyes were a little red, her expression condensed, and she reached out and raised his chin: "What?"

Lin Banxia gave a strong smile: "It's okay, I just feel sorry for you."

Song Qingluo: "..."

"I don't know how many years it has been like this." Lin Banxia's fingers slowly slid across the line and muttered, "I don't know... how many times has been cut open."

Song Qingluo said, "If you came by yourself, it wouldn't hurt too much."

Lin Banxia smiled bitterly, if he really believed what he said, then he was really a fool.

"Come on, let me blow your hair." Lin Banxia said.

Song Qingluo walked up to Lin Banxia naturally and sat down. Lin Banxia turned on the hair dryer and slowly helped him blow through his wet hair, "By the way, I was in the corridor on the third floor before, watching Here are some pictures."

Song Qingluo: "Photo?"

Lin Banxia said: "I blinked when I saw the photo, I don't know if I saw it wrong."

Song Qingluo frowned.

Lin Banxia said, "You know, I'm very slow about these things. Would you like to visit later?"

"Okay." Song Qingluo nodded.

The night was dark, the summer heat was gradually fading under the blow of the evening wind, and it was a fine night again. Different from the night in the city, here you can see the sky full of stars and rivers, a bright crescent moon hangs high above the sky, and the cool brilliance coats the whole world with a layer of light frost.

Li Su sat on the balcony to enjoy the shade. The villa was in the mountains, and it was very cool. When it was the hottest, there was no need to turn on the air conditioner. Due to his health, he can only wrap himself tightly on weekdays, not to mention the sun, but not even a shred of wind. Coupled with high-intensity work, this kind of leisure time is really rare.

Li Su curled up in a chair, half-closed his eyes, enjoying a pleasant vacation.

"Dong, dong, dong." The closed door in the bedroom was knocked twice. Not knowing who it was, Li Su said, "Come in, the door is not closed."

With a crunch, the person outside the door pushed in, and it turned out to be Li Ye.

When Li Su saw it was him, he didn't get up, and asked what was wrong.

Li Ye didn't say a word, and threw a file bag in front of him. Li Su thought it was a work-related document at first, but after opening it, he glanced at it, his back straightened, and his brows frowned: "What do you mean? ?"

In this document bag was a property certificate plus a tax stamp. Li Su had a clue in his heart. When he opened it, he was not surprised to see that it was the property certificate for this villa. On the property certificate, it was written that own name.

"It's for you." Li Ye said lightly.

"Hey, what's wrong with you?" Li Su didn't laugh but got angry, "I've been in this business for longer than you, and I'm short of money? If I wanted it, I wouldn't buy it myself? Do you need to be selfish??"

Li Ye looked at Li Su and said lightly, "You are lying."

Li Su: "..."

Li Ye said, "You want to come back."

Li Su stretched out his hand and smashed those things into Li Ye's chest. He got up in a hurry and left, but Li Ye grabbed his wrist. He gritted his teeth and said, "Let go."

Li Ye said: "Don't let it go." His green eyes reflected Li Su's trembling body with anger, and he didn't waver for a moment, "Although you dare not come back, I know that you want to come back."

Li Su said, "You fucking fart!"

Li Ye said, "You want to come back here in your dreams. It doesn't matter. If you dare not, let me help you." . Li Su was about to struggle again. He thought that Li Ye would not let go, but Li Ye let go. He staggered a few steps, showing a bit of embarrassment.

"Good night." Li Ye said. Most of his voices were emotionless. It was probably from his childhood experiences, which made it difficult for him to show sincere affection to the people around him, so he always seemed indifferent and alienated. Maybe he didn't realize it himself, whenever he spoke to Li Su, the cold green eyes were always softer.

After saying good night, Li Ye turned around and left.

Leaving a mess, and Li Su standing silently.

Listening to the crisp closing sound of the door, Li Su covered his face with a wry smile, slowly bent over, and picked up the things on the ground little by little. He opened the property certificate again, saw the words Li Su on the property certificate, something suddenly came out of his throat, and he was speechless due to choking.

This house was indeed the ancestral home of Li Su's family, but what is recorded here is not a good memory at all. At least when he left here, what filled Li Su's heart was fear and unease. It could even be said that he fled from here in embarrassment and never thought that he would come back.

At that time, the seven members of the Li family survived, and he was only a teenager, which was almost equivalent to destroying the family. Li Su remembered something and looked at the narrow-mouthed porcelain bottle that Lin Banxia brought back.

The craftsmanship of this porcelain vase is very ordinary, but the patterns on it are extraordinarily delicate. Everyone's demeanor and movements are vivid, as if they will move in the next moment. Li Su is more and more flustered. Others may not know about this scene, but he is very clear in his heart. Back then, his family encountered all this in the villa, and encountered the heresy that changed his life.

Although that thing has now been sealed, Li Su still felt a deep sense of unease. That nightmare that he never wanted to recall was like a maggot on the tarsus. Even after so many years, it still troubled him.

The heretical thing 34556 has a mysterious form, and from the moment it appeared, it took on the appearance of a human being. According to the test, it will consciously select a certain family, and then change into the appearance of its family members and mix in it. At first, it did not cause any harm to the surrounding human beings and creatures. However, with the aggravation of the infection, the surrounding people will have serious mental problems, visual hallucinations, auditory hallucinations, irritable emotions, and finally become murderous and irritable. - Human beings have become its companions little by little, performing drama after drama in front of it, and it will not be satisfied until it is completely destroyed.

After the selected family group is destroyed, 34556 will leave and enter the next family, and so on and so forth. And later, data showed that the higher the level of happiness and the richer the family members, the more attracted it. It's like a scavenger vulture, looking around for its favorite food, and if no one dies - it creates death with its own hands.

Li Su will never forget that it was taken away by the people of the base in the form of his mother. At that time, he didn't know what heresy was at all, and even thought that his mother really caused all this.

Later, Li Su, who became a companion, was also observed by the base for a long time, and he was released after it was determined that his mental threshold had only increased and there were no other changes. It's a pity that at that time, Li Su's whole person had completely collapsed. From the young master who was pampered by everyone to the orphan who saw his family kill each other with his own eyes, it was only a few nights.

More than ten years have passed, and as long as Li Su closes his eyes, those pictures will appear in front of him.

So when Li Ye told him that he had bought this villa, Li Su's heart was not joy, but fear. He was afraid to go back here, and he didn't dare to tell Li Ye, so he had to go to Lin Banxia and the others, and asked them casually if they wanted to come over for vacation together, wanting more people to dilute the fear in his heart.

From the current point of view, this approach is only half successful, because when he is alone, he can't help but be afraid, especially when he sees the picture on the porcelain bottle sent by Lin Banxia.

Everyone who enters the base and becomes a recorder has his own story. Some people come out of these stories, and some people can't come out for a lifetime.

Li Su and Song Qingluo were both the latter.

Li Su held the envelope that Li Ye gave him tightly, not even knowing that it was soaked with sweat. He maintained this state and sat beside the bed for a long time, until a soft sound in the room brought him back to his senses from this state. The sound seemed to come from the side of his bed. Li Su's first reaction was whether it was a mouse. After all, it was an old house. It was normal to have these things. He looked in that direction and didn't see any mouse, but saw a mouse that he had just placed beside the bed. Porcelain vase - those little blue people on it, actually moved.

Lin Banxia and Song Qingluo went to the third floor and found the photos that Lin Banxia found abnormal before.

Song Qingluo went straight in, took the photo off the wall and checked it. Lin Banxia stood by and looked at it and asked, "Is there a problem?"

Song Qingluo frowned slightly: "There is a very faint companion's breath, so I can't be sure."

Lin Banxia said strangely, "Why can't you be sure?"

Song Qingluo said: "Because Li Su is also a companion, after he came back, he must have wandered on the third floor, and it is normal to leave some breath."

Lin Banxia said, "What should we do then?"

Song Qingluo said, "Put the photo by your side for the time being and observe it first."

It seems that there is only such a way, Lin Banxia thought, maybe he really got it wrong. After all, such a rare thing as heresy, why does it suddenly appear so frequently, it seems that it can be seen everywhere. Song Qingluo held the photo, still thinking, suddenly looked up at Lin Banxia: "When you saw my mother today, did she say anything else to you?"

"Really not." Lin Banxia was sure, "She only sold me one porcelain vase, and the vase seemed to have Li Su and his family painted on it... I don't know why she sold me this thing."

Song Qingluo frowned, a little puzzled.

Just when the two were thinking, there was a sudden movement from downstairs, first Li Su's exclamation, then a crackling sound, as if someone was running in the corridor in a panic.

Obviously something happened downstairs, Lin Banxia and Song Qingluo rushed over immediately, and they saw Li Su in his pajamas rushing out of the bedroom with a terrified face. He looks like a ghost.

"What's wrong?" Lin Banxia quickly supported him.

Li Su was speechless. It was the first time Lin Banxia saw him look so frightened. His eyes were frightened like a frightened rabbit, and his whole body was shaking.

Song Qingluo glanced at him and rushed into the bedroom, but the bedroom was empty and there was nothing. He searched carefully and found nothing unusual, and then turned back.

Li Ye also rushed over to hear the sound and hugged Li Su instead of Lin Banxia. Li Su did not resist, and shrank in his arms and kept shaking.

Lin Banxia felt that Li Su was very courageous, and could not understand what could scare him like this.

"It's alright." Li Ye patted his back lightly, like a child, soothing Li Su's emotions, "It's alright."

Li Su's body gradually stopped shaking. He recovered from the fearful emotion and breathed rapidly: "She... She is in the room... "

Li Ye said, "What?"

"That thing!! That thing is in the house!" Li Su shouted sharply.

Li Ye asked Song Qingluo with his eyes, Song Qingluo frowned slightly and shook his head.

Seeing this, Li Ye said, "Okay, we won't go in, let's go downstairs to rest first." Then he helped Li Su down and left here temporarily.

"What's the matter?" Lin Banxia didn't understand, "Is there anything in the room?"

"I'll check it again." Song Qingluo said.

The two entered the room again, but as Song Qingluo said, there was nothing strange in the room, but Lin Banxia found that the porcelain bottle he gave to Li Su had been violently thrown to the ground, but fortunately the floor was covered with a carpet. Not broken.

Lin Banxia picked up the porcelain bottle, observed it for a while, and handed it to Song Qingluo: "Could there be something wrong with this thing?"

Song Qingluo looked at the thin-mouthed porcelain vase, and suddenly remembered the scene when Lin Banxia saw her mother in the daytime, and suddenly frowned: "You really saw my mother, right?"

Lin Banxia said, "Yes, I really saw it."

Song Qingluo said, "Could it be that Li Su saw the person on the porcelain vase?"

Lin Banxia looked surprised: "This..." is indeed possible.

"Go down and have a look." Song Qingluo took the porcelain bottle and went out.

Li Su was downstairs holding the hot water that Li Ye poured for him, curled up into a ball, looking extremely pitiful. His expression was sluggish, and he still didn't break free from the picture just now. The sound of "crisp" in his ear exploded in his ear like a thunder, and he was so shocked that his soul was torn apart.

Even after a hundred years, Li Su would never forget that voice, those bad memories were too painful, he seemed to have changed back to that helpless little boy, he could only hug his body tightly, curl up in the corner, watch Tragedy happens.

Warm hands gently stroked his spine, Li Ye's voice pulled him out of his fantasy and returned to reality, Li Ye said, "Are you okay?"

Li Su looked up and saw his green eyes, he said, "It's okay."

Li Ye stared at him.

"Is there something?" Li Su said, "There is something nearby, I shouldn't have seen that person, and I shouldn't have heard that voice."

Li Ye didn't speak, and slowly took out something from his pocket. It was something that Li Su was familiar with and could no longer be familiar with. One black and one white, two dice. He didn't say anything, but his intention was very obvious. Li Su smiled bitterly when he saw this: "Are you afraid that I'm going crazy?"

"No." Li Ye said, "I just want to know how to better protect you." He had to confirm that Li Su was not an illusion caused by excessive mental stress.

Li Su sighed softly, took the dice, and when he threw it, the dice rolled in front of the table. Spinning, hitting, and finally stopping slowly, the numbers on the two dice were presented in front of the two of them.

The black dice is 5 and the white dice is 8. When added together, it is 85. Although it does not meet the standard of a lunatic, it is already too high for a person with a peculiar physique like Li Su.

Since going through those things, Li Su's mental value has always been very stable, which is also the basis for him to dare to take on those dangerous missions, but looking at the numbers on the dice in front of him, he can only show a bitter smile, as if asking for help. He had to look at Li Ye: "Am I... really crazy?"

Li Ye said: "It's still too early to reach the critical value, so naturally you can't be crazy."

Li Su said, "Really?"

Li Ye said: "Of course it's true." He gently stretched out his hand and took Li Su, who looked helpless, into his arms, feeling his body gradually relax under his comfort, revealing the softest part.

He has to control himself, Li Ye thought indifferently, otherwise he would really not be able to bear it. He slowly moved his gaze away from Li Su's face and cast it in an unknown direction, hiding some of the rising emotions.

"Don't be afraid, there is me." Li Ye said.

Li Su hummed softly and felt a sense of security again, but he had no idea how explicit the eyes of the person hugging him were.

Is it reluctance to bear, Li Ye thought so, or... just bear with it.

The author has something to say:

Li Su: I can't let Lin Banxia go to the ghost, we are all scared to death, he hasn't found it yet! !

Lin Banxia: I'm not, I don't, don't talk nonsense

Li Su: Ah, there is something on top of your head! !

Lin Banxia looked up and saw a woman hanging on the ceiling: Where is my clothesline?

Song Qingluo: Pfft...
