When Yu Sen came to the dining room, Michelle had already been eating alone in the corner. She said she was eating, but she was actually just drinking some sparse porridge and chewing cold cucumbers. However, no matter how delicious the meat was, she would still eat it now. No more.

But what was strange to Yu Sen was that there was a thin line around Michelle's neck that was not so obvious.

He thought it was something like a necklace worn by a little girl, but when he looked carefully, he realized that the thin light red thread was protruding from the flesh, forming an oval circle, extending to the hair hidden behind the neck.

Michelle seemed to feel itchy neck all the time, and she had to scratch it after eating two bites. The thin thread was getting redder and more obvious, and her neck was full of fingerprints, which were still slowly swollen.

Yu Sen felt a little weird in his heart.

Finally, there was the girl who lived in the same room with her last night. Yu Sen remembered that her name was Wang Shuanglan. When she came back from dinner, she saw something was wrong and exclaimed, "Michelle! What's wrong with your neck!?"

The other people in the dining room were attracted by the sound and looked over, Michelle panicked: "What's wrong? I feel itchy, I thought it was a mosquito bite!"

"How could the swelling be so big that it was bitten by a mosquito?" Wang Shuanglan bit her lower lip, her eyes could not bear it.

"It hurts..." Mi Xue stood up with difficulty supporting the table, and she couldn't cover her increasingly swollen neck with one hand, "It's itchy, hot and painful, how could it be like this... …”

Someone in the dining room pointed at Mi Xue: "What is that red line on your neck?"

Michelle let go of her hand, her eyes were terrified, her pale face was in stark contrast to the redness of her neck: "What red thread? I didn't wear a red thread, I didn't..."

Realizing that the scythe of death was already on top of her head, she slowly moved two steps forward, tears rolled down her eyes, her face was full of despair, and her voice was hoarse: "Help me... who can save me ...please...help me..."

The dining room was silent for a moment, echoing Michelle's broken sobs.

Everyone could see the problem, her neck had swollen to the size of her face in such a short period of time, and the red silk thread became more and more obvious, as if it was about to drip blood.

This cannot be man-made, it cannot be a normal phenomenon, and it is even less likely that ordinary people like them can solve it.

Michelle's whole body was weak, and she sat on the ground slumped, her body swaying uncontrollably, someone couldn't bear it, and whispered: "Would it be better to apply cold water or ice cubes?"

Of course it won't work—everyone knows that.

But even so, out of sympathy, Wang Shuanglan still whispered: "I saw some ice over there just now, I'll go get some."

As soon as Wang Shuanglan turned around, Michelle's body seemed to freeze for an instant, and her eyeballs did not move, and then Yu Sen watched as if in slow motion, her neck was bleeding from the red line. It was as if a knife was cutting spirally from the inside of her neck, and the head and body were separated instantly.

The head of the person who has not yet closed his eyes rolled on the ground like a ball, and a large amount of blood gushed out from the wound like a volcanic eruption. He could even hear the sound of water, making his scalp numb.

Several people who were close to Michelle were covered in blood, and panicked screams rang out one after another.

This bloody scene happened very quickly, and in just a few seconds, bright red was everywhere in everyone's sight.

Yu Sen frowned, and sat on the dining chair, trying to see clearly, but Si Xuanyang, who was standing in front of him, moved his body, just blocking his gaze.

Yu Sen: "..."

One time may be a coincidence, but again and again, he will not be so naive to think it is a coincidence.

Could it be that he gave Si Xuanyang too 'weak' impression before, so when he saw something scary, he would subconsciously help him block it?

Miscalculated.

But does he really look weak like this?And Si Xuanyang actually believed so deeply in his superficial acting skills?

You are still young, and your morality is not enough.

......

Faced with such a cruel 'killing', most of the people present seemed at a loss, especially those who were stained with Michelle's blood, their faces were extremely ugly, they stumbled back a few steps, their bodies went limp, and they sat slumped on the ground.

"How could she be like this..." Wang Shuanglan murmured in shock.

"It's the room." Lin Jianchuan took off the glasses on the bridge of his nose and wiped them with the corner of his clothes.

He said slowly: "Our rooms are all arranged, probably we can't change rooms to sleep every night. I reminded her last night, she was too scared and didn't listen."

"You reminded..." Wang Shuanglan couldn't help crying. She also went to Michelle's room together last night and heard Lin Jianchuan telling Michelle not to change rooms, "but her room was so bloody at that time. It's scary, how can I stay here..."

"That's better than where she is now."

Alas, Yu Sen sighed, in fact, everyone was just guessing before the accident happened, but some people were cautious, and some people always took chances, thinking that even if the rules were broken, they might only be punished a little, not a big deal.

But the reality gave her a naked knife, and she paid her life before she could learn how to abide by the rules.

Michelle's body was lying in a pool of blood, slowly getting cold.

Soon, everyone in the dining room went out one by one, and no one wanted to stay in this place. Several people found a curtain, covered Michelle's body and head, and rushed out after that.

The smell of blood in the dining room was strong and pervasive. Yu Sen smelled it for a long time, even when he walked into the garden, he felt that the scent of flowers smelled like rust.

He glanced at the location of the storage room on the second floor, and said, "I guess...the owners of those heads in the storage room are people who used to live in the old house, that is, the ones we saw at night. Those house slaves, including that handsome Lord Li."

"Master Li is just Mr. Li, what's the point of being handsome? He's just a ghost." Si Nan groaned.

"I want you to take care of it!" Yu Sen was in a bad mood, his eyes were full of knives, "Others are handsome, they are so handsome after turning into ghosts, and they are not even more handsome when they are alive."

"Hmph... So you are dissatisfied with my appearance now, huh?" Si Nan challenged him as usual.

Si Xuanyang's eyelids twitched when he didn't know the truth.

"It's good to know, you have to face up to yourself." Yu Sen flew over with a sharp eye.

"Stop it, don't talk about it," Si Xuanyang felt that he might not want to hear the conversation afterwards, so he turned back to the topic, "Back to the person."

"Oh..." Yu Sen thought for a while, and said, "Last night, I saw a circle of knife scars on the neck of the groom officer, Mr. Li, probably because he was beheaded before his death."

Reminiscent of the heads outside the threshold that he saw late at night, and the room full of heads on the second floor, Si Xuanyang felt that what Yu Sen said was not unreasonable.

"I heard that if a person becomes a ghost or is trapped in the same place forever, there is a cause and effect," Si Nan said, "I see those people in the ancient house...ah no, those ghosts , has been trapped inside, repeating the wedding every night, is it because their heads were trapped in the cabinet by the innkeeper? So the soul cannot escape."

"Then the question is, why does the innkeeper do this?"

"Could it be that the owner of the JZ tidying up hotel was the bride last night? As for grievances...it's probably a love-hate relationship." Luo Yu said.

Yu Sen shook his head: "No, I compared it, the bride's chin looks very different from the store manager's last night, and it's easy to tell the difference just by this."

"In this way, to find out their identities, how about... let's go to the bridal chamber tonight?" Si Xuanyang suggested.

Si Nan's hairs stood on end, he couldn't believe it: "Have you lived enough, brother?"

Yu Sen answered quickly: "If you are afraid, then Si Si and Luo Yu will stay in the room, and Yang Yang and I will go."

"No!" Si Xuanyang looked at him, with a hint of anger in his eyes.

"I'm going!" Yu Sen snorted strangely, and raised his eyebrows at Si Xuanyang provocatively, with a smile in his eyes, his pupils exposed to the sunlight, reflecting beautiful colors.

Si Xuanyang was in a daze for a moment inexplicably, thinking that his vision was wrong, and when he wanted to see clearly again, he had already turned around.

Probably just read it wrong.

He felt that in front of Yu Sen, he seemed to be becoming more and more unconscious. When he realized it, he realized that his heartbeat was faster than usual for some reason.

Si Xuanyang looked at Yu Sen's back, then at Si Nan, unwilling to think about the obvious reason.

-------------------------------------

At night, when the moon rose, they returned to the old house, experienced the same wedding again, and then returned to the room.

In order to explore the mystery at night, Yu Sen purposely slept for a while in the afternoon, and he was refreshed and in a good mood at this time.

Si Xuanyang glanced at him, did not speak, took the unburned red candle last night on his body, thought for a while, then took the red hijab of unknown use, and told Si Nan: "Don't fall asleep, both of you, it's best to take turns keeping vigil, and light another candle if there is any abnormality."

"Understood, you all pay attention to safety," Si Nan waved his hand, "Brother Yu, you have to bring my brother back intact."

Yu Sen rolled his eyes: "Why don't you let him bring me back completely?"

"Because if I don't say that, my younger brother will do it too, and you, if I don't say it, you probably won't." Si Nan took it for granted.

Yu Sen: "..."

Si Xuanyang: "..."

"Let's go, I'm afraid I'll kill someone if I stay any longer." Yu Sen sighed.

"Ah."

......

The moon was dark and the wind was high, taking advantage of the fact that there was no one around, Yu Sen ran across the promenade catty and catty, glanced at Si Xuanyang beside him, and suddenly couldn't help but snicker.

"We seem to be cheating like this!"
