[Bottle Evil] Snowy Illusion

Chapter 5 The Mastermind Behind the Scenes

The dizziness and chest tightness lasted all day. Su Wan felt that he was going to lose his temper. Li Cu was no better than him, mainly because Li Cu still had the strength to scold Zhang Haike: "Damn...you are murder in disguise. , why didn't you say it earlier...the fuck is going to the plateau."

Zhang Haike kept his eyes on the front while driving, and took the time to look back at the two who were crying for a long time, feeling a little helpless: "I know that you are not fit enough, so I brought you up by car, if you were to be transported directly by air, you would probably die. Then he smiled again, "It's all his idea to scold you Boss Wu."

This remark hit Zhang Haixing's scolding point again: "Damn that stinky boy found a good place, and my old lady was played around by him." After Zhang Haixing scolded, he turned his head and glanced at the two people in the back seat, and then looked disgusted, " No wonder picking up the children really looks like a mess."

"You!" Su Wan just wanted to stand up and resist, and immediately thought that he was already a prisoner at this time, and he was still a prisoner with obvious altitude sickness.Furthermore, the person he was about to scold as a "smelly woman" was a woman with a unique physique who did not blush and had a perfect health index. She lost her strength and turned her gaze out of the car window.

At this time, they were walking in an area that was both unfamiliar and familiar. They said that they were unfamiliar because they had never been here before, and they were on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.It is familiar because the surrounding environment is very similar to the urban-rural fringe of any place. Rows of dilapidated one-story houses are full of traces of demolition and reconstruction.

The road is fairly wide, but there is no vitality that a city should have. If I have to compare it, it really feels like a zombie ghost town in "Resident Evil".

The sky was already dim, and the light from the setting sun stretched out the projections of all the dilapidated buildings. There was still no one on the street, but the speed of the car gradually slowed down. After turning two more corners, it suddenly stopped .Li Cu and Su Wan sat up with the backs of their chairs and looked out.

The night quickly spread, and there was a dim and yellow street lamp beside the car, and a three-story old building loomed in front of us.

Just at the moment when they looked up, the last ray of sunset light suddenly disappeared, and the sky seemed to be darkened in an instant. The gray-white wall of the building suddenly stood out in the dark night, and the dark windows in the dark It was dyed a darker color.

Li Cu and Su Wan shuddered unconsciously.

"Brother Zhang." Su Wan immediately changed to a more friendly address because of the chill in his heart, "Boss Wu, you're not here, are you?"

Li Cu also looked at Zhang Haike, feeling a little apprehensive in his heart.Although I have been to the ground, dug up mummies, and met "ghosts", but whoever said that after experiencing it will not be afraid, but the association will be richer!

Looking at the expressions of the two of them, Zhang Haixing seemed to have discovered something interesting, and there was a smile on his stern face, and he said: "Go in and see, are you afraid?"

"No, no, no." Su Wan repeatedly denied, "I think that someone who cherishes life and loves life like Boss Wu will definitely not like living here. Yali, what do you think?"

Li Cu snorted, why did Zhang Haike bring them here for no reason, there must be something wrong with this building.They still don't know at this time, what Su Wan said is right or wrong, Wu Xie really doesn't "like" this place, and he has a creepy memory here.But Wu Xie had indeed been here before. Ten years ago, guided by a video tape, he took a step to change his destiny—come here and meet someone again.

"Where is this place?" Li Cuo tried to calm down and asked Zhang Haike.

Zhang Haike frowned and said, "An abandoned nursing home."

Su Wan immediately sighed, sure enough, it's a place to receive snake spirits. With Wu Xie's standards, only such a nursing home is worthy of him.

"He did ask you to meet here, but we don't know if he is here now." Zhang Haike continued with a smile, "By the way, we haven't been here either."

"Stop talking nonsense, you'll know if you go in and see, everyone is timid, they are all hypocritical!" Zhang Haixing summed up bluntly, and then reached out to push the door.

The door is a wooden door. Due to the age, the original color can no longer be seen clearly, and it seems to be red.With Zhang Haixing's palm down, the door panel immediately made a dull sound, and the door shaft had long lost its lubrication. With a sharp sound, the door panel bounced back instead of opening.

In the quiet old neighborhood, this sound added a little weird atmosphere, Su Wan and Li Cu both clenched their fists.

Fortunately, there was no ghost or ghost. Several people saw an iron chain protruding from the crack of the door. It turned out that the door panel was not pushed open because it was locked from the inside.

"Damn it, what treasure did Boss Wu hide in it, and it's locked, will you let it in?" Su Wan asked.

Zhang Haike actually laughed, and said: "It's really a treasure." Pointing to the wall next to the door, "Turn it over."

Su Wan hesitated a little, and said, "Should we call out, maybe Boss Wu will come out when he hears it."

Zhang Haike was amused by him, but he pretended to be mysterious and said: "You can't shout, there are some things that can't be disturbed."

Su Wan was terrified on the spot, and quickly said, "Brother, can I choose to wait for you outside now?"

Zhang Haike waved his hand and said: "Okay, I won't tease you, let me tell you the truth, your boss Wu is not here, we just want to come here to get something hidden, you go out and wait for us, get it later We will leave when we arrive, and I will take you to see him tomorrow morning."

Su Wan stared, with words written all over his face: I can't accept it.But then he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Damn it, I really don't need to enter this ghost building?"

Zhang Haike nodded, and he and Zhang Haixing wanted to climb over the wall, but their arms were pulled.

"Wait a minute." Li Cu stared at him and said, "Are you both going?"

"Nonsense, do you want my old lady to stay with you?" Zhang Haixing said.

Li Cu realized that his tone might offend his aunt again, so he said slowly: "Take, you don't have to go both of you to get the things, don't leave one of you...don't leave the other to look at us, we may have a relationship Running."

Li Cu's insidious feeling became more and more intense, and he only felt that it might be better to follow in than to stay outside at this time.

"You're really thinking about us." Zhang Haike said, "That thing is hidden so deep that it takes two people to break it open, so Hai Xing has to follow me. As for the two of you wanting to run, then Just run away, taking care of the kids is hard work, and I'm tired too. At worst, if Boss Wu asks you, I'll say no. Let's see if he catches you two one day, whether he will blame me or deal with you first."

I don't know when, Wu Xie has become the number one deterrent, Li Cu and Su Wan sat back in the car silently.

The night quickly and completely sank, and the entire old town was shrouded in pitch black night. The place has not changed much in the past ten years, especially in the vicinity of this area. There are also human factors, so it has always maintained its original appearance.

The weeds were rustling by the night wind. Li Cu and Su Wan were nestled in the car without hearing any sound, and their eyes were fixed on the dilapidated old buildings under the faint street lights.

And three hours passed, and the two people who entered it never came out again.

It was completely dark all around, and Su Wan could hardly see Li Cu's face clearly, and the temperature also dropped rapidly. The temperature difference between day and night on the plateau was huge, and Su Wan couldn't help feeling that the cold air had begun to rub against his skin.

Li Cu never looked away from the old building, and the bad premonition in his heart had multiplied, but amidst this uneasiness, another feeling seemed to be getting stronger, that is a kind of urgency.

He recalled the whole incident, as if something was chasing after him, and if he didn't hurry up, he would miss something, or be overtaken by something.He desperately wants to know the reason, desperately wants to know the truth, desperately wants to know why he wants to know...

The glowing feeling on his back showed that he was once again firmly in control.Li Cu was a little annoyed, he couldn't figure out who arranged all this, but if there was such a person, at this moment, he hoped that it was Wu Xie who had already tricked him once.

Li Cu gritted his teeth and said, "I'll go in and look for them, you wait here for me."

Su Wan was stunned on the spot: "No! They couldn't come out, and you won't be able to get out either!"

Li Cu shook his head, and his heart was overwhelmed: "If you wait any longer, there may be no results. Why don't you go and see for yourself. Besides, we don't have a car key, so we can leave if we want to..." Li Cuo's eyes suddenly caught on while he was talking. A shiny thing on the driver's seat, "Damn it! Keys?"

Su Wan also hurriedly looked over, and sure enough, the car keys were left on the driver's seat.

"I promise we didn't when we sat in." Su Wan said firmly.

"How is it possible, don't make any more trouble." Saying this was going in a weird direction again, Li Cu didn't want to believe it, "It must be because we didn't pay attention."

"Is this tempting us to run away?" Su Wan was surprised, "You think, if we only had two legs, we wouldn't be able to walk very far. The zombie area is so big, but it would be different if we had a car. , I guess it will be able to drive back to the city soon."

Li Cu picked up the key, he couldn't figure out why Zhang Haike brought the two of them here all the way, and then threw them a car to let them escape.Could it be that it was a momentary negligence that left the keys in the car?Still confident in predicting their actions, thinking they won't run.

In fact, there is another possibility, which is also what Li Cu is entangled at the moment, that is, even Zhang Haike did not expect that they would never return.During these three hours, some unexpected trouble must have occurred in that dark ghost building.

Li Cu took a deep breath. He suddenly remembered that in Gutongjing, he detonated the bomb in a much more desperate situation than now; he thought that under the heavy surveillance of Wang's family, he was trying to decipher the information sent by Wu Xie. his information.Suddenly, the feeling of being confused and unable to restrain ourselves from going further filled the whole body.

He made a decision in an instant.

Li Cu opened the car door and got out of the car. Su Wan was stunned, but he also got out of the car immediately, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "It's broken, this building has demonic power, and you are all fascinated by it. Dedicate."

Li Cu looked at Su Wan, and said, "I still think I have to go and see, you..."

Before he finished speaking, Su Wan waved his hand and smiled helplessly: "Yali, I think you will regret if you don't go in, and I don't want to regret not following you after a few hours."

Li Cu was really touched, so he nodded.Neither of them wanted to break into the "haunted house" unarmed, so they rummaged through the car and the trunk, found a wrench, and a flashlight, and climbed over the wall to get in again.

As soon as they landed on the ground, they felt the green bricks under their feet and the weeds almost up to their knees. That weird feeling seemed to take root from the soles of their feet. While fixing them in place, they grew upwards at the same time. His hairs stood on end.The yard was very desolate, very large, but there was nothing but weeds.

The door of the house was gone, and they bravely stepped in, and the moment they stepped into the lobby, both of them felt a little bit regretful, and the feeling of loneliness as if they were cut off from the world instantly enveloped them.

The entire lobby was empty, the floor was paved with blue bricks, and the floor was covered with dust. The two of them took pictures with their mobile phones, but there were no furnishings, only old-fashioned carved windows, and a revolving wooden staircase on the left side of the lobby.

The two quickly noticed two clear footprints on the ground, extending towards the direction of the stairs.After looking at each other, they also followed the footprints and came to the stairs.Li Cu first stepped on the first board of the wooden stairs with one foot. It was still very strong, but it would make the unique creaking sound of wooden stairs, so the two walked up the stairs.

What made Li Cu feel relieved and weird at the same time was that the two footprints they followed turned out to be very neat and intact.He remembered that Zhang Haike said that they had never been here before, but the footsteps of the two of them didn't look like they were in a strange place for the first time, and they needed to look around and there should be hesitation or temptation. They are going somewhere.

Thinking of this, Li Cu couldn't help feeling the coolness on the back of his neck. Looking up, he found that they had reached the end of the stairs, which was the corridor on the third floor. The corridor was dark, with rooms on both sides, and they followed their footprints to one In front of the room.

The door was ajar, and in the light of the mobile phone, they could see that the lintel was vaguely engraved: 306.

What happened afterwards was unexpected, but not too horrifying. Just like Wu Xie ten years ago, the two quickly discovered the passage in the cabinet in a room where there were no people.

The footprints in the room were completely messed up. It could be seen that Zhang Haike and Zhang Haixing had wandered here for a long time, but since they were not in the room, they probably entered the passageway in the cabinet.

The passageway was the same as when Wu Xie came, leading the two to the basement smoothly.

The moment they saw the huge sarcophagus, they almost screamed out.Everything here began to develop in an uncontrollable and terrifying direction, and Li Cu was sweating coldly while holding the wrench.

Different from Wu Xie, when Wu Xie came here for the first time, he didn't have any cognition about this place in his mind, at most it was a mysterious guidance given to him by a mysterious person.As for Li Cu and Su Wan, from the hint in Zhang Haike's words at the beginning, as well as the repeated hesitation to the decision, several alarms had been sent to the environment in their hearts. The moment the sarcophagus appeared, all the suppressed fears were gone. It broke out so much that the two stopped in place and chose to return.

However, just when Li Cu turned his head and was about to turn back, a pair of cold hands suddenly covered his mouth. Li Cu subconsciously wanted to struggle, and swung the wrench in his hand to hit behind him, but his wrist When it was pinched, the wrench immediately fell out of hand and fell to the ground with a loud knocking sound.

"Damn it!" Suddenly a familiar voice said, "Don't move!"

Although the sound was only a few words, Li Cu could still tell who the third person in the darkness was, and he calmed down as he said.Seeing that Su Wan seemed to recognize the person who came, he was shocked at first, and then also quieted down.

For a while, the three of them stood still, and there were rustling sounds coming out of their ears, like countless ants crawling, the sound was not loud but very clear.

In the dark, vision is almost lost, and hearing and other senses are extremely sensitive. Li Cu only felt the sound of thousands of ants crawling not only in his ears, but also in his heart. I got goosebumps all over my body.

The only thing that made him feel a little relieved was the hands that held him firmly, without any trembling or cold sweat at all, and even the temperature of the palms was quite warm, and there was the sound of extremely light and even breathing in his ears.

That sound didn't last long, and for a moment Li Cu seemed to feel something brushing past his eyes, like a woman's long hair.

Could it be a female ghost!Li Cu cursed inwardly, as expected, this building is very evil!

Just when he was surprised, a ray of light flashed in front of his eyes, and he felt that the hand restraining him had been withdrawn, and he was holding a very small flashlight, shining directly in the direction they came from.

"Follow me, don't look back." The voice sounded again at an extremely low volume.Li Cu and Su Wan immediately followed.

The visitors walked all the way up along the passage they came down from, so they returned to room 306 according to the same path.

Everything just experienced was like a short and terrifying nightmare. Li Cu and Su Wan couldn't help but take a deep breath when they came back to their senses.

But rather than lamenting "the rest of his life", Li Cu knew that this person in front of him deserved more attention.The urgency in his heart seems to have reached a critical point, and the key to breaking through this point, Li Cu's intuition lies in this person.

Su Wan panted and was about to talk to him, but the man didn't intend to stay, but pushed open the door and walked out, and the two followed.

They entered the next room. Once they entered this room, both Li Cu and Su Wan had question marks in their hearts, because this room looked like two worlds from the 306 next door.

Needless to say, 306 has old wooden doors, moldy mattresses, and empty cabinets leading to the weird basement, but this room is clean and tidy, with a half-drinked glass of water on the table, and a cupboard on the floor. The lunch box can be seen vaguely in the trash can.

"Uh, who lives here?" Su Wan spoke first, and turned to the human who brought them here, "Brother Zhang, you can't be the one who lives here all the time, right?"

That's right, Li Cu recognized Zhang Haike's voice when he said "don't move", while Su Wan watched the process from his appearance to the time he restrained Li Cu.

"It's indeed where I've been living." Zhang Haike smiled, his eyes flicked back and forth between the two, and the smile became even more intense.

"Damn it, Brother Zhang, don't laugh like that, like Boss Wu, I can't accept it." Su Wan said.

Zhang Haike cast his eyes on Li Cu, waiting for him to say something, but Li Cu was speechless for a while.

Su Wan pushed him and said, "Yali, what's wrong with you? Are you scared?"

Countless fragments flashed in Li Cu's mind, some of them were selected, these fragments came together, and suddenly pieced together a complete chain.

Li Cu stared at Zhang Haike, and made a movement that he didn't expect - he raised his foot and kicked Zhang Haike.

Zhang Haike got out of the way immediately, and Li Cu kicked directly onto the chair next to him, making a sharp sound as the chair legs rubbed against the ground.

Su Wan was startled, and hurriedly grabbed Li Cu, saying, "You're crazy, it's Brother Zhang!" Then he looked at Zhang Haike, and saw that the smile on the corner of Zhang Haike's mouth was still someone in his memory Feeling, combined with Li Cu's reaction, he also suddenly understood the current situation.

This person is not Zhang Haike, but the real Wu Xie.

For nearly a month, they analyzed and searched for Wu Xie's various clues, and finally chose Hangzhou as a breakthrough point, but encountered Zhang Haike's "trap" and were taken to this weird old building in a daze. The goal they are now pursuing Appeared without warning.Li Cu instantly determined that the only prerequisite for making all this coherent was that everything was arranged by Wu Xie.

He couldn't figure out whether he was angry, shocked, or a little excited. The mixed emotions made him unable to control his feet and kicked towards Wu Xie. In fact, he was also surprised, but turned to look at Wu Xie. , Wu Xie didn't seem to be angry, and even had a relaxed expression.

"What exactly do you want to do?" Li Cuo asked directly, with a very bad tone.

There was no electricity here, and it was late at night, and their only source of light was a flashlight on the table.The light from the flashlight passed between the three of them and hit the opposite wall with a small circle of light.

Wu Xie took a step forward, and the beam of light was blocked by his body, shining straight on him.

Wu Xie looked a little more energetic than the last time we met. Li Cu still remembered that he was so skinny when he was in a small dark room with Wu Xie at the end. Wu Xie was wearing the same shirt and casual jeans as Zhang Haike. , put his hand casually on the back of the chair that had just flown past, and his eyes conveyed a kind of indifference, as if he wanted to explain to him, nor did he seem to intend to continue to hide it.

"Calm down." Wu Xie said, "First of all, I'm not playing tricks on you."

Li Cuo really believed in this in his heart, no matter what Wu Xie did before, even threats and persecution at times, but Wu Xie gave him the greatest degree of freedom of will.It's just that he still doesn't like it, or doesn't approve of it, which makes him feel passive, a kind of passivity that can only be led away.

"I know." Li Cuo said.After Wu Xie opened his mouth, most of his anger had actually disappeared.

"Wait!" Su Wan said, "I don't know! Why do you suddenly have a good understanding, Boss Wu, are you Boss Wu? You and that Zhang Haike are hanging around like this, I don't even know who to trust. "

"Do you believe it now?"

Another voice of Wu Xie came. Li Cu and Su Wan looked back at the door at the same time, and they saw another "Wu Xie" leaning against the door frame.

Zhang Haike smiled at the two of them and said, "We are both here now, so feel free to ask any questions you have."

Although the two have accepted the reality that Zhang Haike can imitate Wu Xie, the combination of the true and the false has quite a visual impact.

After Wu Xie briefly explained the matter, the matter could no longer be understood. Wu Xie had indeed been hiding in this haunted building, waiting for Zhang Haike to bring the two of them to complete a test.

"Boy, I did plan the whole thing, and I even found him." Wu Xie said, pointing to Zhang Haike, "I'll bring you in with me, but if you think about it, you can make my plan go smoothly. In this step, the first and most critical start button, but you pressed it yourself."

"So, we did it ourselves?" Su Wan sighed in despair.

The two "Boss Wu" looked at each other and smiled, Su Wan felt a burst of collapse.

"Don't think too much." Wu Xie said, "This is a choice for you, and you followed your heart and ran to find me, otherwise he would not have intercepted you in Hangzhou. Our plan ends here , as long as you break in here and come to the basement, this choice will be completed, and I will tell you the truth like now."

This information is not difficult to digest, and Li Cu finally understands the source of the anxiety and urgency deep in his heart.He wanted to continue to participate in all of this, even though he didn't know what role he was about to play and what role he would play in Wu Xie's next plan, he still broke in by himself.

Thinking so, Li Cuo rebelled slightly, "What if we both choose to quit now?"

Wu Xie changed his posture, his face was immersed in the darkness again, and said, "It's too late now."
