Part 2 Chapter 49: Someone who knows the inside story
I waited for about ten minutes, and then the insect suddenly moved, jumping far away. Before I knew it, it had reached the stairs.
Seeing this, the man pulled me and chased after me.
I followed him upstairs. As soon as I got upstairs, I saw the light and was so frightened that I almost fell down the stairs.
I saw clothes and pants scattered all over the floor at the entrance of the second floor stairs. I didn't see anyone. I didn't know what had happened upstairs, and I didn't hear any noise. Could it be that this group of people stripped themselves naked quietly?
The man did not stop and continued to run inside following the insect.
Although I have never been to the room inside, based on my previous impression of the house, it should be a bedroom, and the master bedroom at that.
I ran in and used the light to sweep around, which made my eyes blurry. I looked closely and found that the three walls of the room, except for the door, were all hung with mirrors as big as the entire wall. When I saw myself in the mirror, I thought someone rushed over and scared me.
I couldn't help but scream "Ah", but unexpectedly, the man in front of me suddenly turned around and kicked me. The kick made me stagger and fall directly out of the door. I screamed "Ah" again.
Now I was really anxious. I had put up with him for the whole night, so I stood up and planned to fight him to the death.
But he was yelling at me from inside: "Don't look in the mirror, it's over if you see what's on your back!"
I didn't dare to move when he yelled. Although I was outside the door, I could still see the mirror in the room. I subconsciously took a look, and my heart sank.
Although the phone had been knocked down at this time, I could still vaguely see a head behind my shoulder in the dim light!
Even though I saw filth so often, I couldn't bear it anymore. I stumbled a few steps and instinctively punched myself behind.
But I didn't encounter anything!
At this time, the man also ran out, punched me in the face, and said, "Didn't I tell you not to look in the mirror?" Then he punched me again.
I was already a little dizzy, and these two punches made my nose bleed and tears flow from my eyes. I wanted to fight back but I couldn't see where the person was.
After punching me twice, he didn't continue, but chased me downstairs, running very fast. By the time I realized what was happening and wanted to take revenge, he had already run to the first floor.
This was the first time in my life that someone other than my father dared to hit me like this. I chased him down without caring about anything, without even taking the time to look at the stairs.
I chased him all the way to the yard, and he was standing in the middle of the yard with his back to me. However, I was stunned and did not rush over.
Because I saw something even more incredible: there were several naked people lying in the yard. Needless to say, they were the ones who came with us.
No one knew whether these people were dead or unconscious; they were all lying there motionless.
I was completely shocked. How did they get downstairs?
I wiped the blood off my face and lit a cigarette. Since I had decided to fight to the death, it made no difference to me whether it was a surprise attack or not, as long as I could keep my eyes on that person.
I patted my head and began to look for Xu Chuanxiang, but some people were facing downwards, so I couldn't find him.
After thinking about it, I guessed that these people must have jumped out of the window, otherwise the man and I had been guarding the stairs and would not have missed seeing it.
What’s strange is that even if they jumped down, they should have been able to hear some noise. How did these people land so quietly?
As I was thinking about it, the man kicked a few people lying on the ground and suddenly laughed without any warning. His laughter was similar to that of the villains in old Hong Kong movies. Anyway, I have never seen a normal person laugh like this before.
He turned around and yelled at me, "This is fucking interesting. One person should have died, but now more than one have died. Let's see how they end this!"
I heard from his words that these people were already dead, and my heart skipped a beat.
This time, the matter is really serious. I am afraid that if they investigate later, neither me nor that person can be separated from the matter. We came in together, why are we the only ones who are fine?
I walked to the person closest to me and flipped over, but sure enough, there was no reaction at all.
My phone fell again when I fell just now. Fortunately, this was in the suburbs and the moon was very bright that night, so visibility was good.
I checked him by the moonlight, and strangely, he didn't have any external injuries. Although the villa was a bit high, it wouldn't be easy to die if he jumped from the second floor.
I counted them and there were five bodies. According to the number of people, one was missing.
I thought to myself: "Is there another injured person who was taken to the car by the driver?" However, when I looked at the spot where I had parked my car, it was empty.
When the man saw me counting the number of people, he said, "You don't have to look for it. Your follower will come to find you in a while." Then he asked me, "Do you know what the saying 'dragon gives birth to nine sons' means?"
I didn't want to pay attention to him at first, but when I heard Jiuzi, I couldn't help but look up at him.
This person was just as I guessed, he really knew about the Nine-Stop Game, but I still didn't say anything.
The man continued, "This house is basically a testing ground. Nine people were thrown in, one was killed, and then those people used this to figure out a way to set up a trap."
I couldn't help interrupting him when I heard this. I suspected that he had no idea what was going on and was just showing off what he had heard from others.
I asked him, you can't even figure out addition and subtraction within ten, so there are eight people coming in, okay?
He snorted, pointed at me and said, you count as two people!
I was stunned when I heard that, and thinking of what he said before about me having two things , I asked him what he meant. But he acted arrogant and refused to speak.
I thought about it and felt that I had to follow his words. So I asked, "Are you referring to the Nine Sons Town True Dragon?"
My words really worked. He actually squatted down and said to me with contempt: "Now that the real dragon can't be found, what's the point of suppressing it! They want to use the game to find the real dragon!"
Now I understood, and I summed it up in my mind. It seems that after Qin Yiheng and I broke the trap, the suppressed thing ran away, so now these people are desperately looking for it?
It's no wonder why this house is exactly the same as that one. Is this place really a training base? After training here and finding a way, they go to that house to use it?
I looked back at the villa and became more and more certain that my guess was correct.
It’s just that I don’t know how to end the current situation. If I call the police, even if I’m not a suspect, it will delay things a lot. But if I just leave like this, I’ll be found sooner or later.
After calming down for such a long time, I gave up the idea of fighting with this man and decided to find Xu Chuanxiang first.
So I asked the man, where is the person who came with me? How did you know he would come to see me?
He snorted and asked me, "Do you know what those mirrors up there are used for? They're not just ordinary mirrors."
Speaking of mirrors, I actually know a little bit about them. When I was working with Qin Yiheng earlier, I occasionally used them to ward off evil spirits. Nowadays, many people still have the custom of hanging mirrors outside their windows or doors. So, I briefly told him what I knew.
Unexpectedly, he laughed again after hearing that, and said, "You are lucky to be alive until now." He raised his hand and pointed, saying, "It is true that mirrors can ward off evil spirits, but there is a mirror in that room with only one purpose, which is to let you see clearly what is behind it. In the dead of night, when yin is strong and yang is weak, it is easy to attract evil spirits by looking in the mirror. These people must have found something extraordinary in that room, and now that thing has come out, otherwise my katydid would not have taken me to that room. I'm afraid your follower is with that thing now!"
After he finished speaking, I was very puzzled. Those people were supposed to know magic, so how could they not know that there was something on their backs? Moreover, I didn't even hear any fighting before. Even if there was something extremely filthy, they should have resisted. Why did they take off their clothes and die in the yard in the end?
I asked him what the thing on his back was and why I had two on my back?
He was silent for a while, then asked an irrelevant question: "Did you go to the ferry?"
