Chapter 30 Classic Movie Appreciation (Part 4)

The "Li Xiaoyu" in the mirror only appeared for a moment and then disappeared, leaving only Tang Xinjue looking into the mirror with a calm gaze.
“Sizzle—sizzle—”
The light bulb above the bathroom began to flicker, and blood silently flowed down the mirror and sank into the sink.
The dull sound of an impact rang out from the toilet cubicle. At the same time, there were crawling sounds, shrill laughter in the distance, and the impact of some blunt object... All the sounds came up layer by layer through the air and poured into the eardrum.
It goes without saying that if the world we were just in was the "reality" in the movie, then the environment in front of us now should be the other world after the death conditions were triggered.
Chaotic, weird, dangerous.
Why are the death conditions suddenly triggered?
Tang Xinjue did not leave in a hurry. Instead, he ignored the banging sounds as if something was about to crawl out of the room at any time, and walked to the window.
There seemed to be a layer of hazy white fog outside the window, covering it. Messy and dirty bloodstains were stuck on the window frame, spreading all the way to the bloody handprints on the window.
She raised her hand and covered it lightly. The size was wrong. It seemed that this place had nothing to do with Li Xiaoyu.
Leaving the bathroom and entering the corridor, the corridor was now also filled with a strong smell of blood. The ground was covered with dragged bloodstains, and there was an obvious burning smell that squeezed the air entering the lungs.
"Bang!"
Behind me, the door of the toilet cubicle was suddenly kicked open.
A bloody hand stretched out, followed by a body that slowly crawled out, and its head turned towards Tang Xinjue.
Tang Xin Jue also looked at him, and then found that he couldn't look at him again - because the other person had no face.
A ghost in a school uniform but without a face?
As if he thought of something, Tang Xinjue suddenly turned around and went back to the bathroom and walked in front of the faceless ghost.
The faceless ghost didn't seem to expect that someone would rush towards it. It raised its head hard to "look" at Tang Xinjue. Blood spurted out from the top of its head, covering its face without facial features, making it look disgusting and terrifying.
However, Tang Xinjue not only did not show any discomfort, he even slammed the toilet plunger firmly into its face.
"Can I eat it?" she asked in a low voice.
Faceless Ghost: "..."
The next second, the rubber head actually moved twice on its face, and then a stream of water spurted out in disgust, washing away the blood on the faceless ghost's face.
Don't eat.
Faceless Ghost: "..."
It twisted its body hard, and its joints creaked as it moved upward, trying to grab Tang Xinjue.
Tang Xinjue pulled his hand away, and the toilet plunger was lifted up, and the faceless ghost was also sucked up by the face. The limbs that lost their fulcrum were slowly grasping at the air, and it even looked a bit miserable and unable to move.
Seeing that the toilet plunger had no intention of eating, she shook her head and said, "Forget it if you don't want to eat it."
After saying that, he swung the toilet plunger outward with force, and the faceless ghost drew a parabola in the air. With the splattering blood, it fell straight back into the toilet cubicle and made a dull sound when it hit the toilet.
The faceless ghost who was forced to come back just after crawling out: Fuck you.
Seeing that there was nothing unusual in the bathroom, Tang Xinjue quickly returned to the corridor and saw two figures flashing by at the end of the corridor. His dynamic vision instantly captured the back of the girl in front of him. Her hair length and hairstyle were exactly the same as the "Feng Wan" in the bathroom before.
Without hesitation, she chased after him.
Turning the corner at the end of the corridor, I saw a girl who looked exactly like Feng Wan, holding a utility knife in her hand, and peeking in front of a classroom. Behind her, a long-haired girl wearing the same school uniform but with a blurred face came up quietly.
"day!"
"Feng Wan" saw the thing behind her in time through the reflection of the window on the wall, and burst into swearing on the spot. She stabbed back with the utility knife, but the knife stabbed into the long-haired girl's body as if it was stabbing rubber, and did not cause any harm.
The long-haired girl giggled, her neck suddenly stretched, her chin dropped to her chest, and the black hole that was torn out bit towards "Feng Wan"!
A sound of breaking through the air was heard, and an ice cone suddenly flew over and pierced straight into the temple of the long-haired female ghost, causing it to let out a sharp howl!
"Feng Wan" took the opportunity to kick it away, turned around and looked over, surprised but a little uncertain: "Are you Xin Jue?"
"Wanqing." Tang Xinjue responded firmly.
After this question and answer, Tang Xinjue had already come closer and saw a familiar expression and gaze on the unfamiliar face belonging to Feng Wan.
"I finally found you. I can't stay in this damn place for even a second. I actually became a character in a movie, a mentally retarded one at that..." Zheng Wanqing was about to say something when the female ghost on the ground stuck her limbs into the ground, stood up like a spider, and pounced on the two of them again with a giggle.
Being interrupted, Zheng Wanqing flew into a rage, "Laugh at your sister!"
This time she stopped Tang Xin Jue from attacking, and instead folded her arms, clenched her fists and shouted: "Strike hard—"
A supernatural light appeared on her hand, and then the biceps on Feng Wan's slender body expanded rapidly as if inflated. A layer of red light covered her fist, and she hammered down at the long-haired Spider Woman!
[Sandbag-sized fist: Do you see this sandbag-sized fist? Don’t fight me. I will get hurt and you will lose your life.]
The ability to exchange in the mall is not exaggerated at all. Spider-Woman's head was hit by a punch and flattened immediately. Its limbs scraped the ground and tried to grow back, but it was held down by something and could not move.
Tang Xin Jue asked the toilet plunger: "Do you want to eat?"
A stream of water gushed out, but the toilet plunger still refused.
“…”
The spider woman let out a sharp hiss, followed by a fine and dense rustling sound. Countless small spiders crawled out from the top, walls and ground of the corridor, and on top of each spider there was a blurry human head.
Zheng Wanqing decisively stopped: "I feel like my san value is dropping madly."
"Let's go." Tang Xinjue took his roommate's hand and ran out of the corridor, not stopping until he reached the stairs.
Down or up?
Zheng Wanqing was so anxious that she took a deep breath: "It would be great if I had a cell phone."
After entering the movie, they didn't have any cell phones or props, and couldn't contact their roommates. They didn't know where the other two were now, or if they were in danger.
"Upwards." After judging based on his perception, Tang Xinjue made a decision.
The two of them quickly went upstairs before the spider crawled over . When the stair sign changed from 3 to 4, a cry came faintly from the corner.
The two approached cautiously and saw a girl lying on the ground crying - to be precise, half a girl.
The girl's body was cut off from the waist, and her lower body completely disappeared. She raised her head, and Zheng Wanqing was shocked when she saw it: "Isn't this Sun Qian?"
Sun Qian, the third wrong answer in the movie quiz, seems to be Feng Wan's friend. Except for the bathroom scene, Tang Xin Jue didn't see any plot related to her.
But it seems that what we see from Zheng Wanqing's "Feng Wan" perspective should be a different plot.
After seeing the two, Sun Qian began , the sound seemed to be buzzing from her chest: "I am in so much pain, come and save me, my tongue is gone, my body is cut off, I am trapped here and cannot get out, save me..."
Tang Xin Jue looked at her carefully: "Who killed you?"
Sun Qian: "It was Qian Zhi. Qian Zhi felt guilty and was afraid that I would tell on him, so he cut off my legs... wuwu..."
Tang Xinjue remembered that Qian Zhi was the boy with a buzz cut whom she had questioned in the classroom. He was also a character who only appeared in the options in the movie, and sat behind Sun Qian.
She continued to ask: "What is he afraid of you telling on? Who will you tell on?"
"Afraid of me..." Sun Qian suddenly stopped talking. She opened her mouth strangely: "I won't say anything. My tongue has been pulled out. You don't want me to speak, hehe..."
Zheng Wanqing frowned: "Who pulled out your tongue?"
"It's... you!" Sun Qian's mouth cracked, staring at them intently: "Because you hate me for saying bad things about you outside, you pulled out my tongue. We are good friends, Feng Wan, you are so cruel..."
Tang Xin Jue interrupted her sobbing, his voice as calm as if he was doing a survey questionnaire: "So, you were dismembered by Qian Zhi and Feng Wan before you died?"
Sun Qian: “…”
She looked like she was smiling: "No, this is what I will look like after I die. Because you hate me so much, I will become like this. Of course, you will be the same... We are all the same!"
As her voice suddenly became sharper and higher, countless hands suddenly stretched out from the surrounding walls and grabbed towards the two of them!
"Qian Zhi took my legs, and I took his hands. Now I'm still missing a tongue. Who will be my tongue? I like both of you."
Although they said they liked it very much, most of the hands on the wall reached out to Zheng Wanqing. It seemed that Sun Qian was still upset about having her tongue cut by Feng Wan.
"Crack, crack, crack"
The sound of a blunt object hitting the wall suddenly approached from below, as if someone was walking up the stairs.
Sun Qian was stunned and laughed even more sharply: "Qian Zhi is here! He wants a pair of arms, hahahaha, your arms..."
A gloomy boy with a crew cut walked out from the corner of the stairs.
His lower limbs had turned into four complete legs, and he had no arms below his shoulders. He could only use the long tongue that stretched out of his mouth to roll up a machete, and the machete scraped against the wall, making a scratching sound.
It’s Qian Zhi!
Two monster-type NPCs attacked from the front and back, one without arms, the other without legs, staring at the two men from both sides.
...he is still standing strong despite his disability.
Zheng Wanqing turned to look at her: "Do you want to do it?"
Tang Xin Jue frowned: "It's a waste of time, I won't do it."
After these two short sentences, the two of them ran towards the staircase on the other side of the corridor at the same time. The toilet plunger and [sandbag-sized fist] were responsible for blocking each other's arms, and they quickly reached the staircase. Tang Xinjue grabbed the door at the corner of the stairwell and reminded his roommate: "Close it!"
The two doors closed with a muffled sound, temporarily blocking Sun Qian's screams and Qian Zhi's machete. To save time, the two slid down the stair railing at high speed, jumped to the next floor halfway, and stopped at the second floor.
"This floor is very quiet. I don't sense any greater danger."
He pulled Zheng Wanqing into the bathroom and stuffed the faceless ghost that was about to crawl out back in. Only then did the two of them stop to catch their breath.
Zheng Wanqing coughed twice and asked anxiously: "What should we do next?"
Tang Xin Jue said succinctly: "Exchange information."
"If I'm not mistaken, our perspectives are different, so the plots of the movies we see should also be different."
The individual plot lines are disorganized, the relationships between the characters are confusing, and the unexpected other world comes with great force. It seems that there is no room for candidates to slowly experience the plot.
Perhaps, only by piecing together each person's experience can the original content of the movie be restored.
The author has something to say:
NPC: Even if you are a ghost, you must be strong-willed. We all have a bright future.jpg
