I Was Once a Legend

Cui Zuojing was taken aback by Dong Zheng's cry. He had never seen Dong Zheng lose his composure before. When Lin Hangzhi was frightened, he would let out a standard girlish scream. Dong Linhai howled wildly. Dong Zheng let out a very short sound, full of energy and sank to his dantian, which almost broke Cui Zuojing's eardrum.

Dong Zheng's punch in this stressful state should not be underestimated. The female ghost hanging upside down on the ceiling was thrown into the air like a swing. went back.

Dong Zheng didn't even look at her again, he turned around and kicked open the closed door behind him, pushed Cui Zuojing in first, followed by himself.

The bed under him was soft, and the boy was riding on him with one leg, which was heavy.

The heart was still beating uncontrollably, Dong Zheng was really frightened, his whole body was numb the moment he was close to the female ghost, he tried his best to breathe steadily, and did not forget to continue to provide Cui Zuojing with night vision Support, take the time to observe the room.

This time the door was closed, and there were no strange creatures. The door of the closet was half open, and Victor was lying inside, his cat's eyes glowing slightly, and he was vigilantly searching for strange things.

It seems that there is nothing inexplicable.

Dong Zheng didn't take it lightly, he was thinking whether to get up early just in case, when he heard Cui Zuojing whisper in his ear: "You are too good at screaming."

The hot air sprayed on the sensitive ears, and behind the seemingly normal words there was an inexplicable ambiguous meaning. Dong Zheng did not miss the sly look in Cui Zuojing's eyes. He remained silent, raised his hand and rubbed the boy's head a handful.

Cui Zuojing rubbed his ears, and wanted to laugh when he thought of Dong Zheng being so frightened, but soon he couldn't laugh.

Something wet rubbed against his calf.

Dong Zheng also felt an extraordinary strange touch, his heart suddenly suspended again, some cold sweat broke out in his palms, and he breathed lightly.

For a while there was no sound in the room.

The quilt moved imperceptibly.

Dong Zheng closed his eyes, and the next moment, he and Cui Zuojing lifted the quilt and got out of bed at the same time, and saw something hidden at their feet from the beginning——

It was a man, to be precise, a man without limbs.

He is like a silkworm, wriggling on the bed, without arms, the torso only reaches the crotch, and the incomplete part grows into a hemisphere. It should be a middle-aged man with a large black paint on his face, especially around his eyes. Obviously, it looks like it just crawled out of a sludge swamp.

He turned his head to stare at Dong Zheng, and slowly raised a weird smile.

The huge defect made Dong Zheng feel a blockage in his throat. It was hard for him to believe that the stick in front of him was of the same kind. The fear engraved in the biological instinct rose up. This thing didn't seem too dangerous, but no one dared to approach it rashly.

The situation was deadlocked, Victor jumped onto the foot of the bed, tentatively stretched out his paw and touched his "tail".

Nothing happens.

Boom!dong dong dong!

There was a sudden knock on the door, Cui Zuojing raised his eyes to look at the door, Dong Zheng was still staring at the thing, he suppressed his nausea, and was vigilant for all possible changes.

Ren stick opened his mouth, and a thin and long tongue hung down from his mouth, approaching Dong Zheng with life.

Dong Zheng's heart was beating wildly, and he raised the lamp on the bedside table expressionlessly, showing with practical actions that as long as that thing dared to do strange things to him casually, there would be absolutely no good fruit to eat.

The knocking on the door continued, and as time passed, it became more and more urgent.

Cui Zuojing slept by the window, he went around the bed and went to open the door.

The door was pulled open suddenly, but there was no one behind, and the corridor was dark.

Cui Zuojing lowered his eyes. A letter was placed on the ground at the door. He bent over to pick it up. The logo of Hell Circus was stamped on it with wax paint.

"I got the invitation letter." Cui Zuojing retreated to the room and closed the door. He raised the envelope in Dong Zheng's hand and said, "Leave him alone. Find a way to leave first."

Dong Zheng nodded, still holding the desk lamp at the stick, handed the Tang knife to Cui Zuojing, walked back to the door, turned around and walked into the corridor again.

The moment he walked out, a long, slimy sticky object wrapped around his ankle.

Swah——

The blade flashed, and the tongue quickly retracted before it was cut off, barely avoiding it.

Cui Zuojing snorted coldly, and walked side by side with Dong Zheng holding the knife in his backhand.

I don't know which one of the rooms 208 is the exit. Dong Zheng observes carefully, trying to dig out some clues.

The cries belonging to other people in the parallel space are still continuing, and it sounds like there is a more tragic trend. Cui Zuojing clearly heard Wang Que burst into a burst of indiscriminate words, "Fuck, shit, shit", Xia Qiongyun burst into tears A "Run!", even some good what they are going through.

In this indistinct chaos, a burst of singing appeared.

Victor’s ears turned slightly forward to catch the sound better, and his hearing was soon strengthened, so Cui Zuojing clearly heard that it was a woman’s singing.

She sang in a language that Cui Zuojing didn't understand, but it might be because of the distance that she couldn't hear the pronunciation clearly. Anyway, Cui Zuojing didn't know what she was singing, so she could only hear the sad emotion in the singing, lingering around him faintly .

It's a pity that Cui Zuojing can't empathize.

However, Dong Zheng and Victor felt an uncontrollable sadness in their hearts. Dong Zheng's spirit was so stable that it was impossible to be deeply affected in a short time, so they ignored it, and a faint white light appeared on Victor's body, directly Purify this negative effect.

Without any verbal or eye contact, the two and the cat tacitly chose to move in the direction of the singing.

The corridor was straight, with only two directions, front and back. The singing was vague but could be heard getting closer. Finally, they stopped in front of a door.

That's it, the sound is coming from inside.

Dong Zheng grasped the lamp in his hand, always on guard for another ghost who would show up to kill him, and after making complete mental preparations, he pushed open the door.

Hearing arrived before sight, and the singing became extremely clear, close at hand, right next to his ear? !

Dong Zheng suddenly opened his eyes, and beside him, Cui Zuojing should have been lying. At this moment, there was a woman lying on her stomach. She had long golden curly hair, scattered on the pillow, and a few thin strands hung on Dong Zheng's shoulders. , a beautiful young face, with red lips parted and closed, an ethereal and sad singing voice wafted out.

She was not wearing anything, and she could clearly see the scenery inside with the quilt on her back. Her proud figure was extremely impactful.

The woman looked down at Dong Zheng, her eyes were as affectionate as a lover's, and she had a soul-stirring charm.

It's a pity that all this is of no use to Dong Zheng. The firewall and shielding field have resisted all hypnosis and charm for him, and his heart that does not respond to female creatures has kept his eyes on him, and he has not been tempted at all.

Dong Zheng stood up, grabbed the quilt and threw it, and covered the woman tightly. After making sure that Cui Zuojing and Victor were not there, he frowned slightly, pointed at her with a desk lamp, and asked bluntly: "What should I do?" go out?"

The beauty angrily tore off the quilt from her face, looking at the incomprehensible stinky man in front of her very much. Seeing that Dong Zheng was not affected by her at all, she stopped singing embarrassingly and pointed to the wardrobe.

Dong Zheng glanced back, at this moment the gust of wind swept by, he had been prepared for a long time to dodge, and the fish tail slammed on the cabinet door, directly smashing several hideous cracks!

Dong Zheng finally saw that below her waist was a black fish tail covered with moss and stained with aquatic plants!

A mermaid in the sewers?

The famous horror movie flashed in his mind, Dong Zheng opened the broken wardrobe door and got in between the mermaid's next attack.

He was back in the corridor again.

Still holding the desk lamp in his hand, Dong Zhengcai felt a strange feeling between the chest of his jacket. He reached out and touched it, and found that the envelope that Cui Zuojing got from the door before was stuffed inside.

Cui Zuojing and Victor didn't know where they went, but he shouldn't need to worry. The envelope contained a high probability of being an invitation letter. Dong Zheng tucked it in and put it away, and walked forward.

Da da da……

The footsteps sounded from far to near, and they came to him in a blink of an eye. There was no place to hide in the corridor, so Dong Zheng could only watch a group of people no taller than one meter running towards him.They have the height of a child, but the heads on their shoulders are undoubtedly the same as those of adults. With their bloated bodies, short and thick hands and feet, and wearing colorful costumes, they bounce around Dong Zheng, circling and jumping silently. An unknown dance.

This is a bunch of gnomes.

The faces are heavily made up, but it can be seen that the age is not less than 30 years old, growing on the small body, revealing the horror of hunting, in the dark corridor, extremely weird.

At this time, Dong Zheng had almost understood what these things were. In his impression, apart from circus performances, there was another thing popular in American circuses in the last century-freak shows.

These exhibitions featuring anomalous phenomena and deformed creatures were once quite popular. Later, with the introduction of relevant laws, they gradually disappeared from the stage of history, but they did not disappear completely, and they still appeared in carnivals and TV shows from time to time.

Conjoined twins, mermaids, dwarves, quadrangularis, mouthless women...these people are all freak show performers, serving the circus and acting as "npc" for this selection.

After thinking about it, Dong Zheng was no longer afraid. Since he is a human being, it is much easier to deal with.

The dwarves danced in circles, surrounded by the dwarfs, Dong Zheng couldn't move an inch, so he had to push open the nearest door.

……

Cui Zuojing sat in the preparation room behind the auditorium, and opened the curtain to see the performance venue at a glance.Many spectators have already come in, and the lights illuminate their grotesque bodies and faces. Victor is lying on his knees, and the staff on the stage are warming up. Cui Zuojing asked the clown sitting next to him: "Why did you bring us out all of a sudden?"

"You and Victor are special guests at best, so don't participate in other people's entrance examinations." The clown has already drawn the costumes needed for tonight's performance, wearing a large clown suit, holding a round red Bitou, "You came here this time to find me specifically, do you want to get back your relationship?"

"On the one hand, I also want to ask if there is any way to break the blood contract. After all, it is quite uncomfortable to tie your life to someone else." Cui Zuojing pinched the tip of Victor's tail and asked, "How is it?" ? No more trouble, right?"

"Except for Kether coming, there is nothing yet. But your master..."

"His name is Dong Zheng." Cui Zuojing said.

"He met something in the space box that had been locked in for a long time, unfortunately it became the source of infection," the clown stretched out his index finger and tapped Cui Zuojing's forehead, staring into his eyes, and said, "And you, too, were infected." gone."
