Chapter 86
I was forced to come to this hellish place again!
I lay on my back on the wet ground, motionless.【】
The reason for not moving is very simple, because my poor butt was severely injured again, free falling from a high altitude, and the bones were almost broken. It was protesting, pulling on every sciatic nerve of mine, making me want to move.
It's all difficult.
I don't resent Zhu Lingjun for being in such a situation. That's a lie. But no matter how much I resent it, I can't escape the fact that when I accepted the 7 million yuan, I voluntarily sacrificed my life here.
Since it is voluntary, since it is a deliberate decision to step into this huge whirlpool, then you cannot blame Zhu Lingjun for wanting to hone me into a sharp knife in her hands!
After all, she spent a huge sum of money, and what she wanted was not a useless decoration.
And here, it’s time for me to take people’s money and do things for them.
Thinking of this, I stared at the hole above my head and my voice became hoarse.
"Don't worry, since I've already boarded this boat, I will...sit to the end!"
After I finished speaking, regardless of whether the people above heard it or not, I reached out, grabbed the food in the basket, and started chewing it.
Food is what I need most now. Only after eating is full can I have the strength to cope with the difficult trials ahead.
I have no idea what projects Zhu Lingjun will arrange to train me next, but it remains true that she probably wants to train me into a qualified warrior.
Possessing indomitable courage, tough nerves, and the calmness to face the edge of a knife...
Such an arduous task still needs to be accomplished quickly in a short period of time. I don't know if I can do it. But it depends on people. I think I can at least give it a try.
If I fail to meet the requirements, that desert island should be my burial place, rotting into maggots like a wild dog.
But if you are lucky enough to reach it, then the glimmer of hope is right here!
While eating the food, I thought about this silently. By the time I finished eating, the pain in my butt was unbearable.
I stood up silently, followed the entrance of the tunnel, and moved forward to find it.
That cross, now it seems, is just an insignificant prop. It doesn't matter whether I can find it or not. What matters is the process. During the search process, Zhu Lingjun tested me.
So when I was walking, I no longer looked for the cross. I concentrated on the possible unusual movements around me.
Time passed, and I didn’t remember exactly how many minutes had passed. I just suddenly saw a ghostly man standing in front of the aisle.
Under the light of the flashlight, this man's facial expression was extremely stiff and rigid, and he did not seem to be a living person. As I was concentrating, suddenly, this man seemed to be strongly pulled by an invisible rope, and suddenly disappeared around the corner of the corridor.
I watched silently, without any emotion.
After the last experience, there is only one thought in my mind now, and that is - pretending to be a ghost! This trick has no effect on me.
As the saying goes, if you are not surprised by the strange things, you will be defeated by the strange things!
I continued to move forward, and as I searched from room to room, I came to the second floor again.
After stepping onto the aisle, there was no change in this place. Even the bones of the black man who had fallen on the ground and had completely dried were still there.
I was silent for a while and walked quickly towards the third floor, because I had searched for this second floor last time and there was no cross.
The architectural layout of the third house is still similar to that of the first and second floors. After opening the door, there is a straight corridor. There are many rusty parts on both sides of the corridor. In the extreme silence, they all look ferocious.
It is convenient for someone to hide and arrange traps and so on.
But now, even if I fall into a trap, I still have to give it a try.
So I tightened the flashlight in my hand and walked towards the corridor.
After stepping into the aisle, my feet were very thick, as if I had walked into a factory full of engine oil. The roadside was filled with equipment operating tables, and there were some miscellaneous tools scattered on them. From time to time, there were subsidiary passages along the aisle.
, making the entire third floor somewhat like a maze.
I frowned and started searching room by room. When I was searching, I always felt something was wrong behind me, as if someone would pounce on me at any time in the dark. But every time I shined the flashlight back, I always found nothing.
Come on, use whatever tricks you have!
I shouted in my heart and opened a door at random. After the door was opened, a musty smell came out. I shined my flashlight forward and what I saw immediately made me feel like I was struck by thunder.
Everyone was stiff.
Sitting on the table in the center of the room was a completely dried and well-dressed corpse. The corpse had sunken eye sockets and a gold watch on its wrist. It looked cold and ferocious.
…
Damn it! The mummy on the second floor was quietly moved here.
Almost scared me to death!
I was out of my mind for a long time, and there was only one thought left in my mind, "I won't be so playful!"
Then I got angry, turned around and slammed the door shut. I put my hands on my hips and cursed: "Zhu Lingjun, if you have the ability, come and fight me with open swords and guns. Isn't it interesting to pretend like this?"
"I said, please don't be so childish, okay? It's true that you can scare me by pretending to be a ghost for the first time, but if you keep using it, it will become boring, you know?"
I chanted it hard, and when I couldn't curse any more, my voice became hoarse.
I couldn't curse anymore, so I had no choice but to stop. I shook my head, tightened the flashlight, and continued searching.
When I opened another door, I didn't know why, but the musty smell that came out of this room was no longer musty, but a gloomy wind. I looked up and saw that this house was a suite.
There was also an inner room connected to it, and on the window of that inner room stood a humanoid shadow that made my skin crawl. The thing was lying on the window, as if observing my every move through the window.
It was an ugly, ferocious face.
I swallowed hard and felt that the mentality I had just established to not be afraid of ghosts was falling apart.
Step back, I step back, step by step.
I was trying to stay away from that disgusting and terrifying face. My clothes were soaking wet. Suddenly, a human hand, or something like a ghost claw, was placed on my shoulder.
Suddenly, there was a thunderbolt in my head. It almost blew off my skull. Obviously, I had just taken the photo several times, but there was no one behind me! There was no living thing either.
So what is tapping me on the shoulder now? Is it a ghost?
Real...African ghost?!
My mind was spinning rapidly, but my body was so stiff that I couldn't move. The beads of sweat on the tip of my nose quickly fell into my mouth.
Chapter completed!
