In the middle of the night, Liu Yinqi woke up from the nightmare again and again.

As soon as she woke up, she felt something staring at her in the dark.Cold, curious, greedy, salivating eyes, maybe more than one pair of eyes.

She felt that her surroundings were too cold, and her hands and feet seemed to have just been taken out of the freezer and brought back to her, they were so stiff that she could hardly move.This is not a simple illusion, but the temperature has really dropped for some reason, but it is unlikely that cold air will suddenly come to cool down in this kind of night when it is still slightly hot at the end of summer.

Fortunately, the bag containing Chu Yin was placed beside her pillow.She tried to move her fingers inch by inch and grabbed the strap of the bag.As if touching a heat source, her stiff fingertips to her wrists gradually thawed out, and her strength returned to her body.

She unzipped the bag as fast as she could and took Chu Yin out.When Chuyin was completely exposed to the air, the surrounding temperature rose a little bit. She put on a quilt, held it in her arms, and gently touched the lines and lettering on the sword.Chu Yin did not have a scabbard, but she was not worried about being scratched. When the sword was handed over to her, she felt a special kind of peace of mind and attachment. She stayed with it all the way, and even felt that she could feel its power. mood.

Liu Yinqi didn't think it was a strange thing for a sword to have emotions.

Suddenly, Chu Yin began to tremble.It was a slight vibration with an extremely small amplitude, but it was too clear for her.

Seconds later, she heard a woman screaming.

Short and fleeting, but heartbreaking.The soundproofing effect of the room is very good. If it weren't for her hearing being very good all the time, and she was in a state of high nervous tension, she might not have heard this sound.Almost instinctively, she thought of the woman who flashed by the door in the diagonally opposite room.

Her heart began to beat wildly, and the sword in her arms began to tremble more and more, almost like her second heart.

She tried her best to prick up her ears to pay attention to the movement, but she didn't hear anything anymore, it was as quiet as if the sun and the moon had been buried, and she was the only one left in the world.Moreover, she felt that there were more and more things staring at her in the dark.

She just remembered to turn on the light. Fortunately, the switch was at the bedside. She turned on all the bedside lamps, ceiling lights, including the toilet lights. The whole room was filled with strong light. It took half a day to open it.But those unknown things didn't disperse, they just flinched a little, and their gazes staring at her were partially covered by the light.

Liu Yinqi swallowed.She was flustered in her heart. To be honest, she had never encountered such a situation before. Only then did she clearly realize that she had lived in such a safe place since she was a child, and the depression and discomfort she encountered before was nothing more than It's just a joke.At this moment, she realized that those things staring at her were waiting for an opportunity. Once she showed her weakness, those things would eagerly pounce on her and swallow her alive.

You cannot sit still.Although she was flustered, her mind was not lost. She hugged Chu Yin tightly with one hand and rummaged through the bag with the other, trying to find something useful.

Mobile phone.

She grabbed the phone, opened the phone contact list, and almost without thinking, she scrolled to Ye Ximu's column, which she wrote down specially for the convenience of contact in the afternoon.Although she and Ye Ximu had only known each other for a day, she intuitively felt that this situation would be easily resolved if Ye Ximu was around.

She dialed out, and the dial tone on the phone rang for a long time.Only then did she notice that it was already 25:[-] on the phone.

It's so late, will Ye Ximu pick it up? Will he be angry if he is woken up?She tensed up, and beeps drilled back and forth in her throat.She began to feel that she had made this call a bit abruptly, and regretted it.

Just when she was about to hang up the phone, the beeping stopped suddenly, the other end of the phone was silent for two seconds, and there was an inarticulate "Hello?"

The voice was full of drowsiness, but at least there was no anger of being woken up.

"Boss..." Liu Yinqi called out hesitantly, and suddenly his nose felt sore.

"What happened?"

"I..." Liu Yinqi suppressed her tears, and told her current situation in as much detail as possible, including the scream. Afterwards, she didn't quite know what she was talking about, but the other end of the phone kept talking. Listening quietly, asking a question from time to time, that faint voice made her feel at ease.

Suddenly Ye Ximu asked, "Do you have that bottle of cow's tears with you?"

"exist……"

"You can paint a little bit to confirm what those are looking at you." After a pause, she added, "It doesn't matter if you don't look at it."

Liu Yinqi was stunned for a moment, then took out the small bottle in his pocket, the blue liquid swayed gently. "Wait for me," she said.

The process of applying cow's tears on the eyelids was the same as last time. After the sting, she opened her eyes again.

There are shadows that even the lights can't dispel.

She seems to have strayed into the other world between opening and closing.

#####

There was silence on the other end of the phone, only the sound of suppressed breathing remained. After a long time, Ye Ximu heard Liu Yinqi's voice again, as if something was stuck in her throat, it was laborious and unnatural, "Yes, there are many. …The black shadows are not quite like shadows, they are all in human form, some of them are children, some of them are half-human, entwined together. They are all looking at me.”

"Like a shadow and not like a shadow?"

"That's right, it feels more like a solid body, not transparent. It looks like, like..." Liu Yinqi seemed to be trying his best to find an adjective, "like solidified liquid, wet and smooth mud."

... Although they are all very strange metaphors, she seems to understand.Ye Ximu quickly packed up his things, and asked Liu Yinqi to send her the address of the hotel as he went out.

"Don't be afraid." Ye Ximu hesitated before hanging up the phone, and softened his voice to comfort, "I'll be right there."

After a long time, a small soft voice came from the other end of the phone, like a kitten gently scratching the side of her heart, "Well, I'm not afraid."

It took Ye Ximu a while to get a taxi, and by the way, he called the police, half-truthfully told the situation, and then hung up. After all, according to this situation, something bad must have happened in that hotel, but As for whether the police station will call the police, she doesn't really care. She doesn't want to be involved in such troubles too much. She will be sleepy at night. She doesn't think she is a warm-hearted person.

When she arrived at her destination, she got out of the car in a hurry and rushed to save her little shop assistant.

As soon as she stepped into the floor where Liu Yinqi was, she obviously felt that the temperature around her had dropped by a notch, and she found the house number.Wisps of black air lingered and agitated between the cracks in the door.She subconsciously looked at the room diagonally opposite, and sure enough, the door of that room was also surrounded by black air, the two doors were almost connected, and seemed to be slowly moving towards Liu Yinqi's room.

"Liu Yinqi, it's me." Ye Ximu knocked on the door.

There was an immediate response from the room, the voice was muffled, as if it was about to cry in a second, "They are blocking the door, I dare not go to open the door."

"It's okay." Ye Ximu was actually a little surprised that he would speak so patiently and gently.She took out a talisman with a strange pattern from her bag and pressed it on the door lock.

"Break!" she whispered.

Then, the words painted with cinnabar on the paper talisman burned out of thin air, the air shook slightly, and the talisman was reduced to ashes.

Ever since she had yin and yang eyes, Ye Yi gradually taught her some spells, but they were mainly used for self-defense, and all kinds of magic tools and spells were given to her for free, not to mention that she still has one. In the entire magic weapon library, although the magic weapons in the warehouse are generally collected by Ye Yi at will, most of them are not as sophisticated as those made by Ye Yi himself, but she is definitely a RMB player when she goes out, there is nothing wrong with it Ghost dared to provoke her.If other people see her so casually wasting evil talismans to unlock the door, their eyeballs will turn red.

When the lock was shaken open, the black air on the door was also blown away, but when she pushed the door, she still felt a subtle resistance.

The moment she stepped into the door, more than a dozen pairs of eyes looked at her.Those round heads turned towards her stiffly, without facial features, only two dots that were thicker than darkness at the position of the eyes, like black holes that could swallow light.

What's it like to be stared at by a black hole?Even though he has seen a lot about strange things, Ye Ximu still feels creepy.

Those human-shaped shadows just glanced at her, then turned back stiffly.They were surrounding the big bed where Liu Yinqi was, ready to move, and they seemed to be blocked by some invisible glass cover, unable to approach.

"Hiss...she..."

"……I'm hungry……"

"Wait……"

They are whispering in detail, the words of the dead are difficult to decipher, but the malice contained in them is frightening.

And their target was Liu Yinqi who was curled up by the bed.
