Chapter 0029: The Man Hanging on the Beam
Ah Xiang’s smile gave me chills all over my body.
"Only I can save you, and there's only one condition: you kowtow with me in front of my father's coffin. Tell me when you've thought it over." Ah Xiang retreated into the darkness with a sly smile and disappeared.
It seemed as if I was the only one left in the coffin shop, and the darkness was pressing in like an overwhelming force, trying to swallow me up.
My breathing became tense and it felt like a heavy stone was pressing on my heart.
The red candle wouldn't light up no matter what I did, as if there was an invisible person standing next to me blowing on it.
Giving up the candle, I tightly grasped the mobile phone in the live broadcast room and prepared to retreat to the wall to have something to lean on with my back.
The moment I turned around, there seemed to be a short dark shadow flashing by, but when I took the mobile phone in the live broadcast room to take a picture, there was nothing.
"Hehehe!" From the darkness in the distance came the child's cheerful laughter.
child?
I immediately thought of the story of the first coffin shop owner.
He killed his wife and children and stored the bodies under the bed...
My scalp tingled and I quickly stepped back.
My neck felt cold and it felt like my head had hit something.
My body froze, and I shone the light of my cell phone on it, and suddenly my pupils contracted.
In the trembling cold light, there were pairs of feet of different sizes shaking slightly, densely packed, and the number far exceeded four people.
My heart felt like it was going to beat out of my chest, my whole body and legs were shaking, my breathing was rapid, and I doubled over and backed away carefully, leaning my back against the cold, decaying wall.
How many people were hanged in the coffin shop?
What’s even more terrible is that at this time, the sound of the coffin opening was heard again.
The light from the phone seemed to be swallowed by the darkness, making it impossible for me to tell which coffin was opened.
"Cluck, cluck, cluck! Cluck, cluck!"
The child's clear laughter rang out again.
Then came the miserable crying of a woman and the angry roar of a man.
The corpse hanging from the beam also began to shake rapidly, as if it would fall down in the next second.
All the scary guys in the coffin shop came out in full force, as if they were trying to complete something before dawn.
The fear is overwhelming!
Compared to these, the nameless things are just an appetizer.
The cold air was surging, and the coffin shop was as cold as an ice cellar, as if it was going to freeze me completely.
Countless eerie shadows flashed in the darkness, and all kinds of chaotic sounds mixed together, but I could do nothing but watch them rush towards me.
There is nowhere to hide.
The scene before me was enough to crush anyone's will. If it weren't for the calming talisman, I might have given up and turned to Ah Xiang for help regardless of everything.
But I knew in my heart that if I did that, I might die sooner.
what to do?
What should I do now?
I took out the only talisman I could use to exorcise evil spirits and held it tightly in my hand.
There are less than two hours left. I will never give up and I will hold on no matter what.
Bang!
Suddenly, I heard the sound of a rope breaking above my head, and before I could react, a pair of cold, hard feet stepped on my shoulders.
Suddenly, my shoulders felt like they were weighed down by a thousand pounds, and my body became stiff and unresponsive.
Out of the corner of my eye, I caught a glimpse of a pair of tattered black cloth shoes with a few dirty and black toes sticking out, emitting a disgusting stench.
The foot on my shoulder moved, and I moved with it, like a puppet.
I kept my hands in the original position and moved my legs, which felt like they were filled with lead. I felt like I was walking in water, and every step was extremely difficult.
Beads of cold sweat rolled down my cheeks. I didn't know where I was going because my body was out of my control.
Fortunately, the mobile phone in the live broadcast room was still in my hand, and the faint light illuminated the front, at least allowing me to see clearly what I was about to face.
Step by step, I walked into the darkness, as if surrounded by a tide.
Ferocious and painful faces flashed around me, and their black hole-like eyes stared at me greedily, as if a pack of hungry wolves saw a fat sheep.
Being stared at by such eyes is already a great torture, not to mention that there are even more terrifying things waiting for me.
After walking with difficulty, I seemed to have arrived at the center of the coffin shop, and I finally knew what I should do next.
A knot of rope hanging from the rafters appeared in the cold white light of the phone.
The position is just right to my neck.
In three more steps I would have my head inside the knot.
If you don’t resist, your fate will be the same as that of everyone else hanging from the rafters.
Fear can crush a person, or it can bring out a person's great potential.
When I was only one step away from the knot, my legs stopped moving forward.
Every muscle in my body was struggling with the legs on my shoulders. My face turned red and beads of sweat the size of beans fell into the darkness.
In my more than 20 years of life, I have never worked as hard as I do now.
The ghostly shadows around were surging madly, emitting bursts of shrieks like the howling of ghosts and wolves. They were excited, anxious, excited and nervous, as if they were cheering for the legs on my shoulders.
"I didn't expect you to be so tenacious. Let me lend you a hand!"
At this moment, a chilling voice came into my ears, followed by a pair of cold hands on my back.
