Haunted Places Live

Su Yu lay on the door, listening to the movement outside.Zhu Heze grabbed Chen Yi's hand and asked in a low voice, "Is there a sound?"

"No..." Su Yu said, trying to turn the doorknob, but it was still locked, "I seem to have heard them mention Chu Yang's name."

Chen Qi tightly clenched Zhu Heze's hand like a conditioned reflex, and said anxiously, "Brother Chu is really here? They will catch him! What should we do?" Once anxious, he couldn't stop coughing, coughing so hard , It seems that even the lungs are about to be spit out.Zhu Heze gently rubbed her back distressedly, and comforted her in a low voice, "Don't worry, we don't know what's going on yet."

"They will use us to threaten Big Brother Chu..." Chen Yi just breathed a sigh of relief and said struggling.

Su Yu frowned, and kicked the door angrily.Although he still complained in his heart that Chu Yang left the three of them to suffer the pain and left alone, but in fact, although he didn't let go of his mouth, he gradually felt relieved.The Death Song incident ruined the future of all of them and caused Song Liangshu to commit suicide. Among the four of them who survived, Chu Yang was the one who suffered the most.Although it was a cowardly act for him to run away, Su Yu was not sure if he could do better if he changed places.

But now, no matter what, he didn't want Chu Yang to be in danger for the three of them.He walked to the window and looked around, but couldn't find anything to pull on.Moreover, just looking down at this place with a height of more than ten floors makes one's legs weak, let alone trying to escape from here.

"Su Yu, what are you doing!" Zhu Heze scolded lightly.

Su Yu went to a standing lamp again, pulled out the plug, held the lamp pole with both hands, and walked to the door, as if preparing to catch someone by surprise when someone came in.Zhu Heze rolled his eyes, "Have you watched too many movies? You were knocked down with just two strokes of your slender arms and legs."

Su Yu scratched his neck, "Do you have a better way?"

But at this moment, Su Yu suddenly became nervous.There were footsteps coming outside the door.

Zhu Heze hugged Chen Yi's shoulders, and exchanged glances with Su Yu.Su Yu grasped the lamp in his hand, ready to wave it over as soon as the door opened.

However, the door opened, and the light flickered halfway, barely stopping an inch in front of Chu Yang's forehead.Su Yu broke out in a cold sweat, his eyes widened, and he was speechless for a while.

Chu Yang was also taken aback for a moment, but then smiled suddenly, "Su Yu, are you trying to kill me?"

Su Yu hurriedly put the lamp aside and stared at him dumbfounded.And behind Chu Yang, there were several people in black suits, and that handsome man with a baby face.Su Yu didn't like that young man very much. Although he always smiled and spoke lightly, Su Yu just felt that this man had a bad stomach.

Chu Yang looked at Su Yu, then at the two girls beside the bed who were looking at him stupidly, with gentle smiles, "Are you all right?"

"Brother Chu!!!" Chen Yi didn't know where the strength came from, and threw herself into Chu Yang's arms.Zhu Heze also walked over quickly, and the beautiful Danfeng's eyes were full of excitement and worry.But Su Yu murmured, "You are stupid! What are you doing here!"

Chu Yang gently stroked Chen Qi's fluffy hair that had just grown out after chemotherapy, and raised his slightly haggard face, but his smile was still gentle, "I'll come and see you. The place where Lynch and I left For a while, I can't take care of you."

"We're fine." Zhu Heze's voice was choked with sobs, "Xiao Nizi also goes for regular checkups, and the chemotherapy effect is good."

"Really? Let me see." Chu Yang held Chen Yi's face in both hands, and looked at it carefully, "Well, your face doesn't look very good, does it?"

"It's just a little bit of fever." Chen Yi tried hard to laugh out two dimples.

Chu Yang gently touched her forehead, and the slightly warm temperature made him frown slightly.He turned his head and said to Bai Hongyu, "Give us a little private time."

Bai Hongyu raised an eyebrow, but finally shrugged and made a gesture.Then someone closed the door.

Chu Yang pulled Chen Yi back to sit on the bed, and called Zhu Heze and Su Yu to his side.He looked at the young faces seriously, secretly regretting that he had not fulfilled his responsibilities as an elder brother during this time.He took out a piece of paper from his trouser pocket with a map scribbled on it. He unfolded the paper in front of the three of them and said to them word by word, "They will allow you to leave in a while. On this map Do not approach any place marked with a black circle. The three of you should not be separated. It is best to act together at all times. Leave Beijing as soon as possible and go inland. The infection started from the coast, so the further inward the safer, Try to avoid crowded places."

"Infection? What infection?" Zhu Heze asked in confusion.

"I can't explain it for a while, it's a bit like... something that was originally stable is gradually decaying and collapsing. They call it 'entropy' or 'collapse', but anyone who is infected to a certain extent by that corrupt power , it is difficult to return to the original state. As long as you see any strange phenomena, such as large areas of mold erosion or abnormal changes in the texture of objects, or people around you start doing some crazy behavior, you should leave as soon as possible, do not Hesitate, don't stay, and don't try to help others, because you can't help them, just run away."

"I don't understand..." Chen Yi was obviously afraid, but she didn't know whether it was for herself or for Chu Yang, "Will you not go with us?"

"I have to stay. I still have things to do." Chu Yang said it very easily, almost passing it by.He grabbed Zhu Heze's hand, put it together with Chen Yi's, and pulled Su Yu's hand over, making the three of them tightly folded together.He held the three overlapping hands vigorously, raised his eyes to look at Zhu Heze's eyes intently, "Besides me, the biggest one is you. Take care of them as much as possible. You two, also listen to Zhu Heze's sister Zhu." If so, no matter what happens, don't act alone."

Su Yu's voice was hoarse, "Why are you acting like you are telling your last words?"

"Su Yu! Don't talk nonsense!!" Chen Qi said loudly, not so much angry as scared.

Chu Yang sneered and said, "What last words, why do I live well and tell the last words. I'm afraid I can't take care of you now. As long as you are safe, I can find a way to find you." After he finished speaking, he turned the paper over again. Come here, there is a URL written on the back, "If you are trapped by some strange people on the road and you really have no way to get out, you can enter this webpage and play the music inside. It may be useful, but it may not be useful. You should be careful Use it, don’t listen to it when you are free, even if you have to play it, you have to plug your ears.”

He stuffed the note into Zhu Heze's hand, and squeezed Zhu Heze's hand tightly again, "Do you remember what I said?"

Tears flashed faintly in Zhu Heze's eyes, she pursed her lips, after all she didn't say anything, just nodded.

At this time the door was opened again, and Bai Hongyu said impatiently, "Are you finished? The car is ready and we can send them away."

Chu Yang quickly whispered in Zhu Heze's ear again, "Send a message to Bai Dian and Zhao Censhang as soon as you are safe." Then he stood up and calmly said to Bai Hongyu, "It's ok."

Several members of the executive department entered the room one after another, and said to Zhu Heze, Chen Yi and Su Yu, "Please follow me."

Chen Yi didn't want to leave, she still held onto Chu Yang's arm tightly, but Zhu Heze pulled her away by holding her shoulder.Chu Yang was still smiling, but there was still a shadow of worry hovering deep in his eyes.Zhu Heze became cruel, and forcibly pulled Chen Yi to the door, while Su Yu said to Chu Yang, "Are you really going to be okay?"

Chu Yang nodded, "Don't worry about me. Take good care of them."

Su Yu seemed to want to say something more, but finally he didn't say anything, cursed something in a low voice, turned around to catch up with Zhu Heze and the others.

Chu Yang stared at Bai Hongyu, "I hope you can do what you promised me."

Bai Hongyu snorted and looked Chu Yang up and down, "You are a big man now, we will not dare to neglect your request. But I am curious, how can the teacher trust you to run out alone? Didn't he put Are you protecting her like a baby?"

Chu Yang chuckled, and the smile was a little cold, with some sharp thorns, "Director Bai, I advise you, everyone is a big man, and you should restrain your jealousy once in a while."

Bai Hongyu's complexion changed subtly when the words were too blunt and sharp, his eyes became colder and colder, "We have done what we promised you, now it's time for you to fulfill your promise."

............................................................

On the highest floor of the building, there are no rooms, only an empty and dark black space.Chu Yang was escorted by two people from Chaos Temple and two Presbyterians. When he stepped out of the elevator, he saw a lot of people standing densely in the darkness, some wearing yellow cloaks and some wearing black cloaks. Occasionally, there are some reds from the Holy Flame Department mixed in.A circular open space was surrounded by these people, and there were complex runes made up of grooves on the ground.

Chu Yang was asked to stand in the middle of the circle.He looked at the spells on the ground written in variants of the Presbyterian Church, and he could probably recognize that this was a formation used to suppress his observation power, controlling his observation power within the circle, so that he would not be able to detect those outside the circle. People have too much influence.

As soon as he stepped in, he saw a figure gradually disintegrate in the darkness like a nightmare.Under the light and shadow of the dim light, Baiaki's clown-like face appeared in front of him, both real and illusory.Instinct made him want to escape, but that impulse was finally suppressed by him for the first time.

Every time he sees this gray-clothed man, he always runs away.But now, he has nowhere to escape.

I don't want to run away anymore.

Antonio also stood before him, reciting a verse in beautiful French.

The coast is far away, the clouds are broken

twin suns sinking to the bottom of the lake

Shadows spread over Carcosa

strange night sky stars climb

Weird moon orbiting the sky

The most mysterious, the lost city of Carcosa

This is a long song in the first act of the drama "The King in Yellow", but Chu Yang read the English version.When he read this paragraph at that time, he had a strange inspiration and impulse. The dead city of the undead was located by the eternal and ancient lake, and the power of death was about to move behind all living things.It was this long song that first inspired his death song.

He obviously couldn't understand French, but he knew that Antonio was reciting that passage.There is a power beyond words that flows through these lines, and it is shuddering.

"The king in yellow is a book that even us followers of Hastur dare not read. It is said that anyone who reads the second act will be drawn into an irreversible and indescribable madness." Antonio His eyes gleamed in the darkness, "But for you, perhaps madness is liberating?"

Chu Yang's eyes scanned the faces in the shadow of the hood around him, but suddenly he laughed in a low voice, "You want the Necronomicon? You also want to 'liberate' me? But how do you know that after I was liberated , can you still control me?"

Antonio also smiled, and the unpredictable but invisible emotional vortex danced around him, "We don't plan to untie all your shackles right away. We need to know that you have only watched the first scene. How powerful it can be. Then we'll decide if we want to show you some of the bars in Act Two."

After he finished speaking, he clapped his hands, and there was another commotion in the crowd.I saw a person moving a brand new cello into the circle, and on the other side, a person was wearing a bracelet of the seal of Osar on both wrists, and was escorted by several tall Chaos Temple members.That person was wearing black clothes, but he wore a tengu mask on his face. It looked somewhat similar to the costume of the Devourer that he had seen in Fuci Hospital before.

That person was also driven into the circle, and the mask was taken off.He is a man in his 30s, with a slight stubble on his chin, a high nose and deep eyes, a tall, muscular figure, and a somewhat vicissitudes of wild handsomeness.

Look...why is it so familiar?

Before he could speak, the man laughed first, "Long time no see, have you forgotten who I am?"

"you……"

"Tirosa Hotel, Elijah Cooney."

Chu Yang opened his eyes wide.He remembered, it was the man in the plaid shirt in the alien reality, the man who fought against the hounds with them!

how come? !He turned out to be a multi-observer?And also a Devourer?

So the hound...was it an accident?The fact that Chu Yang, the devourer, found them later was also because this person discovered him and Lynch?But he pretended so well at the time, even Lynch didn't see anything unusual about him? !

"This person is a high-level Devourer captured by us." Antonio looked at the two of them with interest, "I didn't expect you to be old acquaintances?"

"Hmph, old acquaintances are not counted, just meeting by chance." Elijah raised his head and stared at Antonio with disdain, "So? What tricks are you going to do?"

But I saw a person from the Chaos Temple coming over, holding a seal-like thing in his hand, shaking it on Elijah's wrist, and actually took off the bracelets on his wrists, and then quickly left the circle.Elijah looked at his free wrists, narrowed his eyes slightly, and looked at Chu Yang.

And Chu Yang immediately understood what Antonio called "exploration."

"Elia Kuni, as long as you can kill the man named Chu Yang in front of you, we swear in the name of the King in Yellow that we will spare your life and set you free." Antonio smiled Said.
