The Apocalypse Begins with a Nightmare

Chapter 23: You hide, I find you

Views:

In the nightmare world, opposite the Sanqiao Community is the Lvyuan Community.

Lin Mo compared the angles on the cat sketch and locked onto a building.

It's just that the green community here is a little different from the real world. Chen Bing said that the nightmare world can be seen as a projection of the fear in the real world, but there are also some differences.

The bright and beautiful residential buildings in the real world now look not only different in appearance, but also older and more dilapidated. Some are even covered with a kind of moss that looks like blood vessels. They look spooky, and the black shadows that roam from time to time make this place more like hell.

"I wonder if there will be sunshine if I come here during the day?" Lin Mo looked up at the dark sky and muttered to himself.

This is the entrance to Building 2.

The original security door seemed to have been knocked open by something, and half of the door panel fell into the weeds not far away.

The weeds here are also weird.

It was impossible to tell what kind it was. Not only was it pitch black, but once you got close, some serrated vines would suddenly shoot out from it, wrap around your hands and feet, and drag you into the dark grass.

"Why do I feel that this building is more dangerous than the one I was in before?" After Lin Mo said this, he looked around, trying to find a handy weapon to protect himself.

But after searching around, I only found a brick.

It was taken down from the edge of the flower bed. That's why Lin Mo realized how scary those black weeds in the flower bed were.

Carrying a brick, Lin Mo walked into Building 2.

The cat lives on the tenth floor in the real world.

But in the nightmare world, it may not correspond, because in the real world, this building has a total of seventeen floors, but in fact, Lin Mo counted just now, and Building 2 in the nightmare world only has nine floors.

Almost half less.

This undoubtedly caused trouble for Lin Mo to identify the cat's room.

However, from the sketch provided by Maomao and the view outside the window, it can be judged that it is unlikely to be a floor that is too low.

Lin Mo and Maomao had previously deduced that the fifth floor was upward, the eighth floor was downward, and the sixth and seventh floors in the middle were the most likely.

After walking through a corridor, Lin Mo began to climb the stairs.

When I reached the second floor, a strange noise came from the corridor.

It sounds a bit like the sound of chopping meat.

There are still people making dumplings in the dead of night

Lin Mo didn't run over to take a look foolishly. He just ignored other people's business and went straight to the sixth floor.

When I reached the corridor on the fourth floor, I saw a huge black hole in the wall, surrounded by dense black mucus. The mucus seemed to be alive, constantly wriggling and invading the surrounding walls.

It looks like a black hole that can swallow everything.

Lin Mo stopped when he walked here.

Lin Mo transferred the brick from his left hand to his right hand, lit the lighter, and went upstairs step by step.

When passing by the black hole, Lin Mo turned his head to take a look. Under the faint light of the lighter, he could just illuminate a pale human face.

The face was hiding in the dark hole. Perhaps it didn’t like the light, so it shrank back in an instant.

Lin Mo seemed to see that the other party was stuffed into the black hole like a ball of tangled hemp rope, with his entire body twisted and deformed badly.

This thing gave people a very uncomfortable feeling, and Lin Mo couldn't help but get goose bumps.

Of course, sympathy is sympathy, but if the other party really rushes out without knowing what is good for him, Lin Mo will definitely hit him with the brick in his hand without hesitation.

In the end, nothing in the black hole came out, and Lin Mo passed the fourth floor safely.

When he reached the fifth floor, Lin Mo suddenly heard a low thumping sound.

It's like someone is hitting a ball.

Lin Mo immediately thought of Maomao's description of the split-head ghost. With an idea in his mind, he quickly walked to the fifth floor.

This floor looked like it had been hit by a tornado. None of the doors were in good condition, and broken door panels and furniture were scattered all over the floor.

There was a thumping sound not far away. Lin Mo looked over and saw a man with a very strange posture banging his head against a wall again and again.

The wall was already covered with blood.

The reason why this person's posture is weird is that he is standing upside down, with his legs hooked on the wall like a spider. His head has been split open, with broken bones and brains mixed together.

It banged against the wall and whispered to itself.

Lin Mo listened carefully, it seemed to be saying: "Why can't I find it? Why can't I find it?"

"Are you looking for a cat?"

Lin Mo muttered to himself.

He recognized it at a glance. This thing was the split-head ghost that Maomao mentioned.

The horror of this ghost thing exceeded Lin Mo's expectations.

I thought it would only be in a specific area, which is the old room that Maomao mentioned. Who would have thought that this thing would actually run out.

In other words, it wasn't the nightmare in that room in the first place.

Not even on the same floor.

Lin Mo knew that there should be nightmares on every floor of the building in the nightmare world, but if the nightmares were equally powerful, they would not invade each other's territory.

Just like the human-faced spider, it will not enter the second floor where the pale ghost is.

And anything that can move across layers must be an extremely difficult nightmare.

Just like the skinny man Zhou Li, or that horrible charred corpse.

The split-head ghost is most likely of the same type.

No wonder Xiaoyu said "don't go".

Lin Mo's movements could be said to be silent, but the Split-Head Ghost seemed to be more sensitive.

The next moment, it suddenly stopped hitting the wall, then turned its head 180 degrees, and stared at Lin Mo with a pair of bloody, vicious eyes.

In an instant, the Split-Head Ghost "jumped" over at an extremely fast speed.

In just a breath, it was close.

This ghost thing seemed to be able to ignore the earth's gravity. It jumped upwards and kicked the ceiling with its feet, so that its cracked head was parallel to Lin Mo's line of sight.

The two people made eye contact.

Just as Maomao said, the smile of this split-headed ghost is so weird that you want to beat it up and still not feel satisfied.

Lin Mo resisted the urge to hit him with a brick.

He knew that if he faced a nightmare of this level head-on, he would be no match for it.

Just when the Split-Head Ghost was about to speak, Lin Mo did something that no one else would dare to do.

He spoke first.

"Brother, do you like to play hide and seek?"

He directly stole the other person's lines.

The Split-Head Ghost opened his mouth, but the words he was about to say were held back.

It doesn't work some of the time.

Lin Mo continued, "Let's play hide-and-seek. You hide and I'll find you."

To be honest, Lin Mo was a little nervous at this time.

It has nothing to do with fear, it's just pure nervousness.

The main reason is that I’m afraid that this split-head ghost will be unreasonable.

Then Lin Mo and it just stared at each other. The smile of the split-head ghost was stiff. Brain matter mixed with blood dripped out of the cracked skull drop by drop.

Through my nose, I could sense a foul odor in the air.

Finally, the Split-Head Ghost spoke.

"So, you also like to play hide-and-seek. Okay, I'll hide and you look for me, but if you can't find me, it'll be my turn to find you." After saying that, he retreated at an extremely fast speed and disappeared into the darkness deep in the corridor.
