Chapter 014: Red Ghost (13)
Yan Jing thought there was something wrong with his ears: "Brother Xie, who were you calling just now...?"
Jiang Rui and Zheng Ming also looked at each other in bewilderment. Xie Chi was calling the ghost baby? Was he crazy?
[What the hell is going on? Can someone explain this to me? ]
[Isn't the ghost baby's blood corrosive? He wants the ghost baby to release some blood to corrode the bottom of the elevator.]
[Ghost Baby: Don’t I have any dignity? ? ]
[It's used to save his mother anyway, so he has to agree even if he doesn't want to! ]
[Hahahaha, after getting its head stuck in the cabinet, the ghost baby got humiliated again.]
【He is a ruthless person. 】
Xie Xinglan waited patiently, as if he was certain that the ghost baby would appear.
Sure enough, a dozen seconds later, the adult-sized vase at the door on the first floor shook suddenly, and two pale little hands reached out from inside to cover the mouth of the vase.
Jiang Rui screamed in fright and Zheng Ming immediately hid far away with a pale face. They never imagined that the ghost baby had been hiding in the vase and eavesdropping on their conversation.
The ghost baby crawled out of the vase, jumped down, and walked slowly towards Xie Xinglan. If he had a head, the expression on his face would probably be one of resentment and helplessness.
Xie Xinglan waved at him calmly: "Hurry up."
The tone was casual yet a bit condescending.
The ghost baby's resentment increased suddenly, and its long nails grew and shrank several times. After repeating this several times, it finally floated into the elevator in despair, pinching its broken neck desperately to squeeze out blood.
The remaining three people were stunned. Looking at this funny scene, they wanted to laugh but didn't dare to.
Xie Xinglan tightened his lips and walked over to urge him.
The highly poisonous blood touched the bottom of the elevator, and a hair-raising sizzling sound spread.
In just a few minutes, a black hole appeared at the bottom of the elevator, allowing people to go down, and the black hole was still expanding.
A foul odor wafted out of the cave, mixed with the smell of the ghost baby's poisonous blood. Yan Jing and the other two were almost suffocated. Xie Xinglan had the foresight to put on the mask that Xie Chi had bought before, and he was the calmest one.
The ghost baby stopped squeezing his neck. He squatted in front of the huge black hole, was silent for several seconds, then suddenly lay down and stretched his neck into the black hole.
He had no head and could not see his mother, but he seemed to sense something.
Xie Xinglan immediately covered his ears.
Zheng Ming looked at Xie Xinglan's actions in bewilderment: "Brother Xie, you are..."
Xie Xinglan freed one hand and put his slender index finger to his lips, signaling him to be quiet. After doing this, he immediately covered his ears again.
Zheng Ming still didn't understand.
The next second, the entire first floor was filled with the ghost baby's shrill cries that pierced the periosteum, vases shattered, and books on the shelves fell to the ground.
Yan Jing and the other two were convulsing all over and having difficulty breathing. They immediately covered their ears tightly to block the sonic attack.
Zheng Ming almost foamed at the mouth and complained in his heart. He shouldn't have said so much. He just did whatever Xie Chi asked him to do.
[The ghost baby is so pitiful. He has been separated from his mother for eighteen years.]
【There must be something pitiful about a hateful person. 】
When the ghost baby stopped howling, Xie Xinglan waved for Zheng Ming and Jiang Rui to come over, and briefly explained the plot, saying, "Come and help if you want to get out."
The three people, including Yan Jing, rushed forward without saying a word. Jiang Rui was responsible for cleaning up the poisonous blood on the edge of the elevator. Zheng Ming was about to put the thick rope directly into the elevator shaft when Xie Xinglan frowned and stopped him.
He picked up a marker from the table at the side, half squatted down, and marked the rope.
Xie Xinglan said, "Tell me when you put in as much as you can and when it hits the bottom."
Zheng Ming agreed repeatedly. He couldn't help but feel happy when he thought that as long as Xie Chi found the female ghost's body, they could leave the horror movie: "Brother Xie, you are so thoughtful!"
Xie Xinglan ignored him and tied the other end of the thick rope to the iron bar .
Xie Xinglan stepped on the iron bar and pulled it back hard to make sure it was strong enough. He put out the cigarette, threw it into the trash can on the side, and walked back to the elevator shaft.
This is the first floor. The elevator shaft from here is not deep, only about eight or nine meters, but it is much deeper than that of an ordinary building, which is terrifying when you think about it carefully.
——It seemed that when the female boss asked someone to design the building, she had already decided to dump the body of the pregnant female ghost here.
Xie Xinglan prepared his tools and climbed down with a flashlight in his mouth. Yan Jing and the other two were nervous. They moved all available light sources and shone them into the elevator shaft, hoping to help Xie Chi.
Xie Xinglan paid attention to the scale on the rope, and when he was sure that there was less than two meters left, he let go, jumped, and landed steadily at the bottom of the elevator.
[Fuck, this is so scary! There is a female ghost corpse. ]
[You must have been stupid before. It’s been 18 years. Even if there is a corpse, it’s just a pile of rotten bones.]
[Ah fuck, he kicked the skull! ]
[He is so brave and not afraid at all. I have a phobia of the dark and claustrophobia! ]
Xie Xinglan squatted down, took out a pair of white gloves from his pocket, put them on slowly, and took out a large transparent plastic bag that he had prepared early in the morning. He picked up pieces of bones on the ground with large tweezers and threw them into the plastic bag. He had no expression on his face throughout the whole process.
As Xie Xinglan was doing this, he suddenly thought of Xie Chi and chuckled.
Only he could do this kind of work, and when it was assigned to Xiaochi, who had both mysophobia and obsessive-compulsive disorder, he pretended nothing had happened. After the job was done, he would definitely hide in the bathroom and wash his hands hundreds of times.
Xie Xinglan carefully searched every corner of the elevator shaft to make sure that no human bones were missed, and shone the flashlight upwards three times.
Jiang Rui received the signal and together with Yan Jing let in another rope, this time with a hook tied to the bottom of the rope.
Xie Xinglan walked over, put hooks on both ends of the plastic bag, and with his nimble fingers, he tied a unique knot at the mouth of the plastic bag.
[Fuck, this is so smart. I was wondering why he brought such a big bag of bones up there. It must be my fish lips.]
[This person is so calm that it's scary.]
[This knot is the kind that can't be untied, right? He can do this, I didn't even see how he tied it. ]
Xie Xinglan shook the flashlight again, indicating that he had done it, and Jiang Rui and Yan Jing immediately pulled the bone up with force.
As the bones slowly rose, Yan Jing realized that the time to leave the horror movie was approaching , and he shouted to the elevator shaft: "Xie Ge! When you get out, please contact me through the APP! You can definitely do this garbage branch line!"
They had previously added each other as friends on the APP.
Xie Xinglan: “Got it.”
The moment the bones were dragged up, everyone's APP sent a voice prompt -
[The corpse of the red-clothed evil spirit reappears in the sun, and the main plot of the film ends completely. 】
[This film has a branch line, so the comprehensive evaluation of the actors will be carried out after the branch line is completed, please wait patiently. 】
[Judgment: Actors Yan Jing, Jiang Rui, and Zheng Ming did not start the branch line and will be removed from the film immediately. ]
[Actors who have not yet started the branch can watch the subsequent progress of the film on the APP. 】
In the lobby on the first floor, Yan Jing and the other two disappeared completely.
At this time, outside the horror movie, the cinema screen showed a close-up of Xie Chi in the elevator shaft.
In the dark elevator shaft, the newlywed man tilted his head slightly and shone the flashlight upwards. In the deathly silence, his eyes were as deep as stars, and the square elevator shaft was reflected in his pupils. The bright shaft that symbolized hope seemed a little out of reach.
The transparent male ghost with white light all over his body stood up and said, "Wife, let's go. I thought it was a bad movie, but it was really enjoyable. The new guy was really strong and interesting. But the ending was really contrived. They had to add a sense of unfinished business, as if there was a sequel."
The transparent blue female ghost beside him pulled him back and said, "There is still a branch line, brother said he wants to stay."
The male ghost was a little impatient: "He must have changed his mind. After all, he is the only one left, and he happened to be in the elevator shaft. I don't know how the branch plot will unfold. Let's go."
The female ghost stood up reluctantly, her whole body dripping with water. She had been watching for three whole days, and there was already a large puddle of water mixed with mud under her feet.
There was a lot of noise around, and a ghost shouted: "I want to see the branch line! If he dares to open a branch line, I will follow it forever!"
"Let's go. He's just a newcomer with a bright future. There's no need to take the risk. Let's go..."
The cinema is very large and can easily accommodate two to three hundred people. Looking around, nearly half of the ghosts are white, 30 to 40 percent are black, and the remaining 10 percent are of various colors, including blue like water and orange like fire.
Just as the ghosts were about to disperse, the frozen image on the screen suddenly started playing again.
The ghosts were all stunned, but after a few seconds they smiled and ran back to their seats.
"He opened a branch line!"
"Fuck, he's a ruthless guy, I love him! If he survives, I'll be loyal to him till the end!"
"100 ghost coins is a great deal, the plot is so complete and there are side quests!"
"I think this wellhead is hinting at something!"
…
After Xie Xinglan confirmed that the branch line was being taken, he put his phone back in his pocket, gripped the rope tightly, and climbed up the well wall.
The darkness did not bring him any psychological burden. There was no trace of embarrassment or panic on his face. He seemed to belong to the night, cold, lonely and mysterious.
"Boom boom boom", the sound of high heels stepping on tiles came from far away and hit the audience's hearts again and again.
[The spider spirit female boss is here, I want to fuck her! 】
[He is still in the well! ]
[The young man seemed to be in a hurry and didn't see the female boss kill her husband. What a disadvantage. 】
[Is it time to watch a handsome guy fight a spider spirit? 】
[What the hell, have you forgotten the rule that "actors cannot attack pregnant female bosses"? ]
[What the hell is that? ! ! ]
In the camera, the female boss's face was full of panic and her steps were hurried and chaotic.
Her insect told her that the female ghost in the elevator had broken free from her restraints and was no longer being used or controlled by her.
"No! No way!" The female boss screamed crazily and pulled her hair desperately, wishing she could tear her scalp off.
As soon as she walked into the first floor, she saw the thick rope tied to the iron bar and reacted immediately.
"It's all those temporary workers who ruined my business!" the female boss roared, looking extremely sick.
She bent her waist in a strange arc and gradually crawled on the ground using all four limbs.
Xie Xinglan heard the female boss's roar. He stepped on the wall of the well, not in a hurry to move. He remained extremely calm, and his five senses were sharper than ever before.
The sound of heavy footsteps approached, and Xie Xinglan's eyes suddenly froze.
Is the female boss still human? Does a human make such a sound when walking?
Xie Xinglan looked up and estimated the distance between the wellhead and his current position, which was still two meters.
The crisis came quietly. In the dead silence, Xie Chi woke up on his own initiative. His voice was low and gentle, a little weak: "Brother, you are not fighting alone, you still have me."
Xie Xinglan smiled, Xie Chi will always be with him.
The female boss moved to the elevator shaft at an abnormal speed and just happened to see Xie Xinglan inside.
"So she hasn't left yet. Haha, since you're so kind as to let her go, then you should stay here forever for her!"
Her expression was hideous and distorted, and suspicious black hairs grew on her face.
At the square wellhead, Xie Xinglan watched the female boss's hand instantly turn into a pitch-black, sharp... spider leg.
The extremely thick rope was easily cut by the spider's legs, but Xie Xinglan did not fall into the well and die as the female boss had expected.
Xie Xinglan sneered, pushed the wall hard with his toes, and with the help of the recoil, he successfully reached the edge of the elevator shaft with both hands. He slightly turned sideways and flipped out of the elevator shaft.
The set of movements is like a ghost, light, smooth, handsome and chic.
[Fuck, is he still a normal person? He can get up and down without a rope! He was just doing it for the actors!]
[Oh my god, I'm so nervous! ]
The female boss never expected that he could actually come up. After being stunned for a few seconds, she pounced towards Xie Xinglan.
Xie Xinglan dodged her attack with a clean and neat move.
The female boss looked resentful and immediately attacked again. Xie Xinglan jumped onto the table and dodged calmly. Every time he was able to accurately avoid the female boss's seemingly flawless and fierce attacks and remained unharmed.
The female boss was completely enraged and rushed over like crazy. Her hard spider legs destroyed everything that blocked her way. Just as her spider legs were about to pierce Xie Xinglan, Xie Xinglan rolled over the table. The female boss's spider legs penetrated deeply into the table, and her attack slowed down a little.
In a flash, Xie Xinglan touched a dagger, which Xie Chi had bought for self-defense.
In a short while, the first floor was in a mess. Xie Xinglan had disheveled hair and untidy clothes. He was breathing slightly and staring at the creature that looked like a human but not a human across the table.
[How the hell can you only defend and not attack? This is too bad! ]
[Attack for nothing! If you lose 100 points for just one attack, then you will lose everything! ]
[Fuck, I forgot that I can’t attack the female boss! ]
After a few breaths, the female boss pulled out her spider legs and attacked again.
Unable to attack, Xie Xinglan gripped the dagger even tighter. He glanced upwards and rushed to the second floor, followed closely by the female boss.
As the spider's legs approached, Xie Xinglan grabbed the second-floor fence with one hand, raised his leg and flipped sideways, then jumped from the second floor, and stood up after cushioning the impact.
During the chase, the female boss's appearance gradually emerged.
She has completely broken free from the constraints of gravity and escaped from the scope of human beings. She can stick to the wall like animals such as geckos and bats, just like a female spider.
She obviously had some consumption.
The female boss clung to the railing on the second floor with her limbs, breathing heavily. Her round belly bulged strangely as she panted, like the cheeks of a frog rising and falling when it croaks.
After she had rested, she made an amazing jump and pounced towards Xie Xinglan on the first floor again.
Xie Xinglan subconsciously wanted to stab her with the dagger, but suddenly he remembered the rules, cursed, sheathed the blade, and rolled over to avoid the attack.
The distance was too close, and the female boss's spider legs still hit him. With a huge impact, Xie Xinglan was pushed back and hit the white wall behind him. His limbs were stretched out, blood slowly flowed from the corners of his mouth, and various parts of his body were injured to varying degrees.
[Don't do that! If the little brother can attack, he won't necessarily lose! ]
[I feel so sad. 】
[He wouldn't just leave it here, would he? ]
The female boss seemed to want to play with her prey, crush his psychological defenses, and slowly approached with the attitude of a winner.
Xie Chi, who had been silent for too long, suddenly spoke up: "Brother, the rule is that you can't attack a female boss who is 'pregnant', but what if she is... not pregnant with a child?"
"For example..." Xie Chi paused, "She is pregnant with... a real baby head Gu."
[Oh shit, ahhhhh, narrative trick! ]
[If she is not pregnant, there is no such thing as not being able to attack the female boss! ]
【Word game, damn! 】
Why is he talking to himself?
Xie Xinglan supported himself on the ground with one hand, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with his thumb, sneered, and looked at the dark and terrifying spider-like creature in front of him with cold and deep eyes: "Now, it's my turn."
