The author's diary of ghost stories

"Lin Youfeng, the director of Changhong Zoo, founded the zoo in 2001 and has a history of nearly 20 years."

"I was moved by the city's top ten figures, who have devoted themselves to animal exhibitions for decades, and created an entertaining and educational animal paradise for the city's young children."

When you walk into the exhibition hall, the first thing you see is a photo of an unsmiling middle-aged man. In the photo, the man is among the animals, with his left hand resting on the lion's head and his right hand clinging to the elephant's trunk.

Next to the photo is a large character introduction, which is basically related to the deeds of the director Lin Youfeng, but some of the handwriting has been omitted and cannot be seen at all.

Cover up the specific opening time and city name?

Is there any key to these two pieces of information?

Or will this ghost story world be suspected of alluding to reality due to the appearance of real place names and years, and will eventually be banned?

Random thoughts emerged in Yu Liang's mind, but these thoughts were wandering because he could not find any useful information in this character introduction.

He wrote down the name Lin Youfeng. In any case, the director would definitely be able to find more secrets about this zoo.

The map of the entire zoo once again appeared in his mind. In the center of the map was the employee center, and the director's office should also be in it. Maybe he could find something there.

No, there are many people who can think of going there to look for clues. If they can enter easily, it means that there is nothing worth exploring in the director's office. Even if there was in the past, other tourists who continuously enter and search will destroy some key information.

Of course, Yu Liang believes that another scenario is more likely. The director's office is the source of the zoo's strange stories, but there is a great terror hidden there. Any visitor who wants to get close must be determined to die...

Ahem.

"Concentric stone?" Xiao Zhize read out the name of the huge stone in the center of the exhibition hall, "Why is there a stone here?"

When Yu Liang heard the words, he walked forward and saw that the surface of the stone was covered with scratches, some deep and some shallow. Some moss grew out of the scratches. It seemed that the scratches were made at different times, or due to factors such as sunlight and moisture. The moss on the stone is only scattered and of different colors.

"I don't know. It only has a name, but no origin." Lao Du shook his head, but several people didn't pay much attention to the stone and walked away.

"It looks normal here." Xiao Zhize looked at everything in the circular exhibition hall one by one, but just like Yu Liang, he also didn't find anything strange.

Lao Du had already expected this. He had been to this place many times, and many tourists had been there many times. Without exception, he had not discovered it. According to his understanding, the information in this exhibition hall was more like supplementing the background story.

"Is there really no night exhibition in this place?" Yu Liang asked tentatively.

Lao Du took the lead, and the three of them were heading to the performance hall from the passage on the left side of the exhibition hall. He replied: "No, the tourist instructions make it very clear. I have been here before in the middle of the night. The door is locked, and from From the outside, there are no lights or sounds at all.”

It seems that Lao Du has been here many times, and his experience of missing the mark every time makes him convinced of this.

Yu Liang opened the page again and looked at the night exhibition ticket in the inventory. He was now more and more convinced that the night exhibition was real. As for the information Lao Du mentioned, it was not a problem at all in this zoo. It was an illusion and another dimension. , there are too many abnormalities that can explain everything Lao Du saw.

Perhaps, only those with tickets can see and enter the night exhibition, but obviously there is another problem with him. He seems to be unable to go to the night exhibition alone. Yu Liang does not think that Crocodile gave him the night exhibition ticket as a kind gift. , he was almost certain that there would be a surprise waiting for him at the night show.

He recalled that when he was chased by a crocodile before, the crocodile seemed not as fast as the mutated Lu Xing. So he could probably last about five minutes in the howling cold state, but after five minutes he could only wait to die.

In a place like this, running fast seems to be really useful.

Yu Liang suddenly realized the key element for the survival of the zoo. Until now, he had not encountered supernatural beings that appeared purely in the form of curses and other human beings that could not be resisted. It was more of a Western-style monster horror.

It's like the lion chase theory. You can't outrun the lion, but you can at least outrun other people.

Physical exercise and the like are difficult to achieve in the short term. The other methods are probably collecting weird stories and using written rules.

The former is Howl, and he also has some inspiration for the latter. He also has four "horse" chess pieces. There must be characters with "horse" as the radical. Among them, there must be ones that describe speed, but he still needs to collect the other half of the characters. .

As for professional alienation, unless all professional alienations can increase physical fitness, there should be no additional improvement for the writer profession.

Lao Du may be hiding the specific method of alienation, but Yu Liang can find the answer from the two starlings in the bird garden. However, this has to be done alone, and he still needs to wait for the opportunity.

"The entire corridor is full of specimens? Why does a zoo have so many specimens?" Xiao Zhize walked in the corridor in surprise. Glass display cabinets were embedded in the walls of the corridor, and all the display cabinets were filled with animal specimens. , most of them are common animals in zoos, such as tigers, lions, eagles, etc., with lifelike expressions and movements, as if they will come to life in the next second.

As he watched, Xiao Zhize felt a little nervous. He always felt that according to the script, these specimens could be "resurrected".

Lao Du stepped forward, bent down next to Xiao Zhize, and focused his eyes on the gap in the glass cabinet door. Then he pulled out a piece of black hair from the gap, "Don't worry, they won't move or leave the cabinet. I Every time I come here, I always have a piece of hair left, and the position never changes.”

"That's good." Xiao Zhize nodded and breathed a sigh of relief. It was right to think about it carefully. If there was danger here, Lao Du would not take them on a tour.

He looked at these exquisitely crafted specimens and was amazed for a moment. Of course, he still had some doubts in his heart. Even if an animal was to be made into a specimen to commemorate, it should be an animal that died of old age, right? Why do the specimens here look so powerful and powerful, and not at all like they are declining in their twilight years?

Shouldn't a zoo be based on protecting animals?

"Wait, Lao Du, wait for me." Xiao Zhize felt a little chill in his heart. When he saw Lao Du's footsteps disappearing around the corner, he hurriedly followed.

Crocodile?

Yu Liang stood in front of the display cabinet and looked at this huge beast that was more than five meters long. He was shocked for a moment. He had never observed such a ferocious beast at close range before. There were probably three of them connected together. .

Slightly open mouth, covered in armor, strong limbs...

No matter how you think about it, it doesn't look like a creature that humans can defeat.

At this time, he could clearly feel his soul trembling, as if he had encountered a natural enemy at the top of the food chain.

The "monkey" ghost story seems to have a big impact on me. Is it just a specimen that makes me unconsciously afraid?

Or is this crocodile alive?

He began to make rough calculations in his mind. The speed of the large crocodile was ten meters per second, but its endurance was seriously insufficient. If he turned on "Howling Cold", even if it was an enhanced crocodile, he should be able to run to Lao Du before the crocodile catches up. .

You can sell it a little bit.

Yu Liang calmed down and looked at the crocodile's opened eyes. They had a golden background and the black vertical pupil of a cold-blooded animal in the center. The whole eyeball reflected the light above the head like a well-made handicraft. No empty air of death.

After observing for a while, there was still no movement from the crocodile, so Yu Liang walked to the other side. There was a separate small room in the middle of the corridor. There was a full metal silver door sign hanging on the side of the room. The door sign said Utility Room 3. There is a square form under the house number, which seems to be a daily duty schedule. There are several common people's names written in the form, and the work column contains tasks such as cleaning.

Is there anyone cleaning here?

How is it possible that the position of the hair remains the same every time?

He suddenly felt alert. "Without exception" was a small probability in itself.

Yu Liang looked calmly at the reflection of the smooth surface of the door plate, from where he could see what was happening behind him.

The lion in the showcase tilted its head. It carefully picked up the hair in the crack of the showcase door with its two paws, and then secretly hid it under its body. The obviously thick claws were as flexible as human hands. Obviously, it could do such a thing. Not the first time I did it.

Ah.

Yu conscience laughed.

Sure enough, as long as your back is turned to things like statues, figures in paintings, and specimens, no one can resist secretly making some small movements, as if they were born this way.
