Suzi Mo suddenly understood when he was "swallowed" by the darkness.
When he was unwilling to ignore human life, the strangers he encountered might have completely different ideas from him.
What's more, he is in a different space known as the "nightmare world", not the high school era before he became a "fool" except to study without worrying about anything.
If it were not for the special situation of Su Zimo, he might not be able to live for an hour at all in this so-called "nightmare world".
"Hey..." Putting aside all kinds of negative emotions, Su Zimo held out his right hand and held it backwards, holding the door handle that appeared again in the dark because no one was watching. While breathing a sigh of relief, Su Zimo suddenly felt that his environment was a bit strange.
In Su Zimo's imagination, the darkness that has been chasing the practitioners is like Li Gui's stomach. As long as he is caught by the darkness, he is swallowed into Li Gui's stomach, and it is eaten directly!
But this is not the case. The environment he is in is not particularly weird. Instead, it is just to stop the hallway on both sides of the candle. He can even see the hallway with red candlelight in front.
He could see the little fat man yelling and running.
He could also see Han Ling, who fell to the ground, crawling and escaping forward.
Su Zimo could see them, but people outside could not seem to see Su Zimo, otherwise the door handle held by Su Zimo would probably disappear again.
However, Zheng Ming was right, the speed of darkness seems to have stopped because of "swallowing" Su Zimo, the remaining candles in the corridor are no longer blown out, and the injured Han Ling and others have gasped and The opportunity to continue to escape.
Although Su Zimo will not fight for them for too long, it should be enough for Han Ling to hide in the second refuge found by Zheng Ming not far away!
Han Ling's plan can be said to have been successful.
But... what about good ghosts?
I don't know if it was because of the effect of the pair of glasses on the bridge of the nose. When Su Zimo stayed in the darkness for a few seconds, he seemed to be able to vaguely see something in the darkness.
He can see the candlestick in the dark, and can see the various mirrors hanging on the wall.
Su Zimo had a doubt from the beginning-why are there so many mirrors hanging in the hotel corridors?
When Su Zimo's eyes swept over a mirror around him, the pupil behind his glasses shrank instantly, revealing an incredible expression.
What did he see?
He saw a long-haired woman in a red dress with her head down in the mirror! He saw the horrible dark red blood dripping down the neck of the female "person". The female "person" was covered with blood on the shoulders and arms, and even Su Zimo could not be sure whether the red skirt was originally The color is still stained red by blood...
That is clearly not a person, but a ghost!
Even more frightening is that Su Zimo watched the red ghost in the red dress disappear from the mirror in front of him, and instead appeared in another mirror close to the darkness and the boundary of the corridor! The female ghost appeared sideways in the mirror and lowered her head to blow out the candle that was still lit next to the mirror.
Su Zimo could hear the familiar wind blowing when the female ghost blew out the candle.
Another candle blew past, and the darkness in the hallway moved closer.
The lights go out and the ghosts stay!
It turned out... The ghosts of this nightmare world were not hidden in the darkness, but in the mirrors that the hotel corridors should not have...
This is the truth of this nightmare world.
"Darkness, darkness is coming again! Why is there no effect!" There was a voice from Han Ling hysterical in the corridor outside the darkness, which had clearly "swallowed" Su Zimo's darkness and covered her ankle again.
At the beginning, Su Zimo thought that the female ghost in the mirror would not attack herself, and even thought that this was the ability given to herself by "being in a corner". But when Su Zimo accidentally looked at the female ghost who raised her head in the mirror, the sharp and broken howling of the female ghost suddenly sounded in the darkness, followed by the female ghost's black hair like a "waterfall". Surging out of the mirror, he attacked Su Zimo without hesitation!
Although he could barely see things in the dark, Su Zimo couldn't avoid the black hair of sea ghost like seaweed in the dark, so there was not much time left for him to escape.
Fortunately, the gaze of the female ghost did not make Su Zimo's tightly held door disappear.
"Su Zimo!"
Just as Su Zimo pushed open the door behind him, an unexpected figure turned back from the corridor outside, even torn off the metal candlestick on the wall, and swayed the red candlelight into the dark threshold.
That figure didn't dare to go deep into the darkness, but the fact that he took the initiative to return and took the candle back to find a newcomer was also impressive enough.
"Su Zimo, grab my hand!"
The candlelight was so weak that the person who broke in could not find the person he was looking for in the darkness.
Su Zimo could see Qi Xiaomin standing a mile away with a candle in hand, but he also saw the ghost hair that was turning to where Qi Xiaomin was attacking by the candlelight.
"Run quickly, the female ghost is going to you." Su Zimo thanked Qi Xiaomin for the last help, so the moment he retreated into the shop door, he gave out the most correct hint he could think of, "The female ghost Hiding in the mirror, find a place without a mirror to hide!"
The bathroom in the hotel room is obviously a modern configuration. The reflective windows in the rooms have turned into white walls, and there is no reflective equipment such as a TV. Thinking about it at the moment, this is as strange as the hallway with mirrors. Su Zimo feels that this may be the survival reminder that the nightmare world has shown to them from the beginning.
He didn't want to save Han Ling, but what he thought might save the girl who tried hard to keep all experienced people alive from the beginning.
It's a pity that Su Zimo can only do so much. He can feel that if he doesn't enter the door again, he will also die under the attack of that ghost.
Su Zimo, who retreated into the store, could not see Qi Xiaomin's expression, but he could see the candlelight in Qi Xiaomin's hand moving away at a rapid speed, which also made Su Zimo feel relieved.
What made Su Zimo more reassuring was that the moment he stepped back into the door, he had returned to a bright and quiet place-the empty shop named "An Yu Yi Yu". Su Zimo took a few steps back, and finally saw the white frosted door that always followed behind him in a translucent manner, and the endless darkness behind the door.
The next second, the hair of seaweed, which generally belongs to Li Gui, suddenly rushed out of the door, and Su Zimo, who thought he was safe, was also surprised.
Then, Su Zimo saw that Li Gui's hair seemed to feel something terrible, and quickly receded like a tide, and the ordinary white frosted side door closed automatically.
Before closing the door, Su Zimo vaguely heard a scream, which sounded like Han Ling.
"I'm back." The moment the door was completely closed, Su Zimo held the counter not far from him, so he sat down on the cold floor of "An Yu Yi" and looked around, looking at the light above his head. Everything seems to be back to the beginning.
In an instant, Su Zimo said goodbye to the screams and noises of other experienced people, and also said goodbye to the muddy, damp, uncomfortable dark red space. In this way, he stood in the clean and bright "An Yu corner", the shop that seemed to be ordinary, could make Su Zimo smell the fresh air.
The only thing different from when he started was that there were more "commodities" brought back from that nightmare world in the bag behind him.
Specifically, the so-called "commodities" are a few sets of toiletries, a few rolls of paper towels, and a white vase without any characteristics.
When taking these things out of the bag, Su Zimo took a deep breath, and began to reflect on what he had just encountered and the basic usage of the back door.
First, the door was always behind him and never left.
Second, no one can see the door except Su Zimo himself.
Third, the door handle can be felt by reaching out, but the door handle will disappear when being watched by other living human eyes.
Fourth, you need to walk backwards to enter the door that was opened behind you.
After summing up, Su Zimo knew that the use of the door was not omnipotent. After all, the door would only appear without others watching.
What if the next time he was pushed to Li Gui by someone else, what would he do?
Thinking of such a possibility, Su Zimo sighed and told himself that the people he met in the nightmare world must not be regarded as teammates!
If you really want to enter the nightmare world again, it is most appropriate to put yourself in a humble and unfocused position. After all, Su Zimo's biggest advantage is that he doesn't need to complete the messy tasks of the trainers, as long as he buys as low-key as possible.
Su Zimo walked to the shelf position in the middle of the store "An Yu Yi Yu" and began to try to put the contents of the backpack on the shelves little by little.
When the first pack of seemingly ordinary "Nightmare" roll paper and toilet set was put on the shelf, Su Zimo found that the "sale price bar" in front of the roll paper automatically appeared with text and price tag--
[Nightmare Premium Roll]
[Price: 1 yuan]
[Nightmare brand six-piece wash set]
[Price: 6 yuan]
These goods can really be sold normally.
After putting the last white vase on the shelf, Su Zimo tried to walk to the front door and the back door that could not be opened, but the two doors that could not be opened because of lack of operating energy before, still could not be opened at this moment!
The Ayuyu Intelligent System, which had spoken to Su Zimo before, went on strike because of insufficient energy, but even without the broadcast of the intelligent system, Su Zimo could guess the reason why he could not leave the store.
Sure enough, it is because the running energy is not enough?
"The goods are still too few." Looking at the still empty shelves, Su Zimo took off his glasses and wiped them with a sigh.
In addition to relying on Ayuyu to increase the remaining lifespan, Su Zimo's desire to leave Ayuyu is also strong.
Because Su Zimo wanted to know, in the four years he became a "fool", who had been taking care of the useless "fool".
Was it his father who was deprived of the Su family's inheritance rights, married four wives, changed some lover, gave birth to many illegitimate daughters, but had only his own biological son?
Or was Su Zimo's grandfather who had been bedridden because of a serious illness before the accident?
Because Su Zimo was in different villas and retreats when he woke up from "sleeping", not only was there a good living condition around him, but he was also carefully cared for, he was always confused. .
Faced with the choice of the two answers, Su Zimo always prefers the latter. But does this mean that the good old man has been taken care of by the sick elderly for four years?
what about now?
Was the self suddenly missing from the place where it was placed, making the elderly look around anxiously?
Thinking of that kind of picture, Su Zimo wanted to leave Ayuyuyu more urgently!
If he cannot leave because the goods are not enough, then...
Su Zimo's eyes naturally fell on the white frosted side door that had just been closed.
If the goods are not enough, he will go to the nightmare world again!
