Chapter 157 Desperate Situation
Chapter 157: Desperate Situation

"Squeak-"

The door closed by itself.

The house was very ordinary, but it seemed that no one had lived in it for a long time. The stairs were covered with dust, and there was no furniture in the house except for a tattered wardrobe in the corner.

The half-open door of the closet caused a lot of psychological pressure, as if... something was hiding in the closet and peeking at people.

This is the general situation of the first floor, and it is clear at a glance.

Bai Yanliang decided to go upstairs along the stairs to take a look.

"Do you want to go up with me or wait on the first floor..." Bai Yanliang turned around and said.

However, behind him, there was nothing...

Feng Xiuxue is gone.

Warning signs suddenly surged into Bai Yanliang's heart. What happened just now?
Feng Xiuxue should have done nothing, and he was the one who opened the door.

But now, she has indeed disappeared...

Where has she gone?
A faint chill came from all around, and Bai Yanliang knew that he couldn't stay there any longer...

He stopped thinking about Feng Xiuxue and went straight to the second floor. To his surprise, the layout of the second floor was almost exactly the same as the first floor. It was run-down, covered in dust, and had few furniture. Apart from the lack of a wardrobe, Bai Yanliang could not even tell the difference between the second floor and the first floor.

Of course, Feng Xiuxue was not on the second floor either.

Could it be that...she has been...

Bai Yanliang had to make such a guess.

The current time is... Bai Yanliang took out his cell phone and took a look.

However, in addition to the time, he unexpectedly discovered that there was a signal on his mobile phone!
You know, in the fog, your mobile phone will not have any signal at all, but in this world, there is a signal.

Bai Yanliang immediately called Feng Xiuxue.

Soon, the call was connected and Feng Xiuxue's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Hey."

……

At the same time, Feng Xiuxue was also standing in front of the door on the first floor.

Everything was normal until I followed Bai Yanliang into the room.

However, just as she turned her head and looked around the room, an accident happened.

When she turned around, Bai Yanliang in front of her had disappeared.

It only took a split second.

This is obviously the work of an evil spirit.

However...even if the rules were made by others, it would be impossible for something like killing someone at the door to happen. In a sense, a world like "Wu Ji" was very fair.

What Feng Xiuxue could be sure of was that even if Bai Yanliang was not dead, he could not help her for the time being.

She calmed down and carefully observed the interior structure of the house. No matter how she looked at it, the strangest thing was the shabby wardrobe.

Of course, she hadn't gone up to the second floor to check.

But that wardrobe gave Feng Xiuxue a very bad feeling. She could vaguely feel... as if there was something hiding inside, secretly spying on her.

Feng Xiuxue took a deep breath. The key point now was... to find a way to survive.

at this time……

Feng Xiuxue's cell phone suddenly rang.

The three words "Bai Yanliang" were written on the incoming call information.

Feng Xiuxue's expression suddenly changed...

……

"Hey."

Bai Yanliang listened to Feng Xiuxue's voice and did not speak for the time being.

Although the call was connected, he couldn't be sure that the person who answered the phone would be Feng Xiuxue.

Moreover, Bai Yanliang suddenly thought of something very scary.

That is... the one who disappeared was not necessarily Feng Xiuxue, but... him. In other words, he was the one who triggered a certain taboo.

After all, compared with Feng Xiuxue, Bai Yanliang was the one who opened the door.

Bai Yanliang suddenly hung up the phone. If he was the one who disappeared, then... no matter what he did in this space, he would easily attract evil spirits.

Sometimes, doing less and making fewer mistakes is also a choice.

Bai Yanliang looked at the turned-off screen and kept thinking about one thing.

That's why cell phones have signal?
Is it due to the power of the evil spirit, or... the present self and Feng Xiuxue have not actually been dragged into the world of that mysterious man. They are still in Ye City, but their senses are confused.

It's not that there is no possibility.

An even more terrifying speculation is that there is no signal in this world either.

And the reason he has it is because the ghost wants him to have it.

If we follow this line of thought...what did the ghost want to do by restoring the signal on his cell phone?

Could it be that... the way it kills people is through the phone?

Some possibilities... but they're far-fetched.

Maybe it could determine his location through the phone calls he made and thus find himself?
Bai Yanliang was in deep thought. A depressing atmosphere enveloped the abandoned house.

At this moment, there was a sound of a door opening downstairs...

Someone opened the door?
Who?
Wind sleeves and snow?
Bai Yanliang's nerves suddenly tensed up. Compared to Feng Xiuxue, the more likely possibility was... a ghost.

He glanced around and found that there was no place to hide on the empty second floor. If it was really a ghost, he would be dead as long as it came up the stairs!
Gradually... footsteps were heard.

“Chi-chi-chi”

The footsteps downstairs were not crisp, and the other person's feet seemed to be growing on the wooden board, dragging forward.

From the voice, it can be judged that... it is definitely not Feng Xiuxue.

Bai Yanliang rarely saw some sweat on his forehead.

He listened carefully to the footsteps downstairs. It was lingering on the first floor, and then there was a "creak".

It opens the closet.

It's looking for him!

Bai Yanliang came to this conclusion immediately after hearing the sound of the closet door opening. At the same time, he quickly made an extremely bold decision!

Bai Yanliang lowered his footsteps and walked briskly towards the stairs, looking through the gap in the stairwell towards the wardrobe in the corner of the wall downstairs.

Suddenly, Bai Yanliang's pupils shrank!
Really ghost!

However... the other party's appearance was somewhat beyond Bai Yanliang's expectations. It walked upside down in a very strange posture, its body covered in blood, and its hands left a long bloody trail on the ground.

As if sensing something, the terrifying evil ghost suddenly turned its head. Because it was upside down, its head was hanging above the ground. When it looked towards the stairwell, Bai Yanliang was gone.

"Kacha——"

The closet door was shut by it.

Bai Yanliang wiped the sweat from his forehead. Although it was very risky, he obtained very useful information!
And he was sure that this ghost had no sensory ability, and the way it found people was through vision! As long as it didn't see him, it wouldn't catch him.

However, at this moment, the noise downstairs started again...

“Chi-chi-chi”

This time Bai Yanliang knew that what grew on the ground were not feet, but hands. It moved in a strange inverted posture, dragging its hands on the ground.

It checked the first floor, and this time, it went up to the second floor...

Bai Yanliang's heartbeat began to accelerate. This crisis was unprecedentedly huge!
The windows were sealed with steel bars and there was no way to open them, let alone jump off the building.

As for a place to hide... the second floor was extremely empty, there wasn't even the broken wardrobe that was on the first floor.

And even if there was, the ghost would go and check it out, so hiding in the closet was obviously not a good idea.

So how can I hide so as not to be discovered by it?
Bai Yanliang's eyes flashed wildly, looking around for the last possible chance of survival. At this time, the ghost had already reached the stairs.

It... is coming up.

　I lost my ID card... I need to go back to my hometown to get a new one. I hope the guy who found my ID card won't use it to cause trouble...
