Chapter 288 Elevator
Chapter 288 Elevator

Liangcheng.

"In fact, before entering Wu Ji, I was a staunch atheist."

Feng Xiuxue suddenly said with emotion.

She turned her head and looked at Gu Pingsheng. "Until now, I still feel a sense of unreality. This is clearly a material world, so why does an inexplicable space like Wu Ji exist, and why are there those evil spirits that come from unknown places and cannot be resisted?"

Feng Xiuxue looked a little depressed, and looked particularly pitiful.

"Doctor Gu, do you think we can really leave Wu Ji alive?"

Feng Xiuxue's voice sounded a little confused and a little scared.

Gu Pingsheng looked at her calmly, "I understand how you feel, Miss Feng."

Then, he turned his head to look at the apartment and whispered, "I am not a materialist. I believe that existence is reasonable, whether it is fog or ghosts. I think that one day, their existence can be explained."

Gu Pingsheng smiled gently: "As long as we try our best to live until that time, that will be enough."

Feng Xiuxue was just about to continue the conversation when she saw Gu Pingsheng had already stepped into the apartment.

She stared at Gu Pingsheng's back, then looked up at the apartment which was particularly cold despite being in the sun, and followed him in.

If you ask them how interested they are in Li Mu's death, that's not the case.

But I believe that no one in Wu Ji can refuse the things that Li Mu left behind.

After all, he was the one who lived the longest.

Maybe he knows some secrets, and those secrets may help to escape from the Mist.

After entering the first floor of the apartment, Gu Pingsheng clearly felt that the coldness had become even worse.

Feng Xiuxue followed quickly, and the two stood side by side, waiting quietly for the elevator.

Gu Pingsheng looked at the electronic screen. The elevator stopped at the 26th floor and was descending one floor at a time.

He glanced at the electronic screen next to him again. The elevator stopped at the sixth floor, and judging from the direction of the arrow, it had to go further up.

This apartment is not small, and although the two elevators are not insufficient, they are not spacious either.

Feng Xiuxue was still in a low mood. While waiting for the elevator, she murmured, "I remember that when I first entered Wu Ji, Li Mu was here... He is an upright man. No matter who is in danger, as long as he can help, he will choose to help."

Gu Pingsheng also nodded: "I have also been taken care of by Li Mu."

"I don't believe he died just like that. If there is indeed another reason for his death... I will definitely do something for him..."

Feng Xiuxue's voice became smaller and smaller, but Gu Pingsheng could still hear it clearly.

Gu Pingsheng did not respond to Feng Xiuxue's statement.

He quietly looked at the elevator that had already reached the third floor, and suddenly he felt a subtle sense of uneasiness in his heart.

Gu Pingsheng glanced around. The first floor was empty, with no one there at all, but he could feel someone's eyes were on him.

Gu Pingsheng was secretly concerned, and at this moment, he heard a "ding" sound.

The elevator door opens.

There's no one inside, and there shouldn't be anyone.

Gu Pingsheng took a step forward and entered the elevator.

Next, it was Feng Xiu Xue.

However, at this moment, an accident occurred.

"Drip-drip-drip-"

The buzzer suddenly sounded loudly.

Feng Xiuxue hesitated and withdrew one foot, and the alarm sounded abruptly again.

"I'm...overweight?"

Gu Pingsheng felt something was wrong. There was no one in the elevator except himself and Feng Xiuxue. How could they be overweight?

Is it a malfunction?
Or……

There are worse cases.

In either case, the best option is to leave the elevator immediately.

Gu Pingsheng is indeed doing this.

However, just as he was about to leave the elevator, he suddenly discovered a wrinkled hand on Feng Xiuxue's shoulder!
Then, Feng Xiuxue stumbled and fell into the elevator!
"boom--"

The elevator door closed.

Feng Xiuxue and Gu Pingsheng both changed color.

There's a ghost! Gu Pingsheng immediately stepped forward and tried to pry open the elevator door.

The elevator hasn't started yet, but if I can force the door open, I can still get out!
But maybe it’s because the quality is too good, or maybe there are other reasons.

The tightly closed elevator door cannot be opened at all.

Feng Xiuxue got up from the ground, her face looked extremely ugly.

Unlike Gu Pingsheng, Feng Xiuxue was sure that there was a ghost in this building.

This was unimaginable before, but now... there seem to be more and more ghosts appearing in reality...

They are not bound by rules and are extremely terrifying.

But Feng Xiuxue was the winner of the previous round after all, and she had her own confidence, but she still murmured about the horror of evil spirits in reality.

She didn't even notice when the other person approached her. When that cold hand rested on her shoulder, Feng Xiuxue felt her heart skip a beat.

Now...she and Gu Pingsheng were trapped.

Trapped in this elevator.

At this moment, voices suddenly came from outside the elevator.

"Isn't this elevator shut down? Why did the screen suddenly light up?"

"I don't know, maybe the maintenance staff are working in there."

"Too……"

The two young voices gave Gu Pingsheng hope.

He banged on the elevator door and called out, "Is anyone there? We're trapped in the elevator!"

"Hello?"

"anyone there?"

"..."

Gu Pingsheng put down his hand and leaned quietly against the side of the elevator.

It was obvious that no one outside could hear his cries for help.

The noise here is isolated.

At this time, Feng Xiuxue suddenly said:

"The elevator hasn't moved yet?"

"Yeah." Gu Pingsheng nodded.

At the same time, he glanced at the elevator buttons.

However, the number on the button sent a chill down his spine.

13.

All the buttons turned into the number 13!

"Is this... a ghost's doing?"

Densely packed numbers 13 are embedded on each button, neatly arranged facing the two people.

"So, no matter which button we press, we'll reach the thirteenth floor?"

Feng Xiuxue was also feeling a little scared.

In fact, compared to evil spirits, she was more afraid of narrow spaces, such as... the elevator at this moment.

But Feng Xiuxue still tried her best to stay calm, for she knew very well what would happen if her mind was disturbed by fear.

The elevator still stopped, but this was obviously not a solution. But what should I do if I wanted to take action?
Press one layer at random?
Anyway, the button is always 13. The 13th floor, is it the lair of evil spirits?

Speaking of which, the number thirteen seems to be a symbol of misfortune in Western countries.

Therefore, in some buildings, the thirteenth floor was specifically cancelled.

What Gu Pingsheng noticed was another point. Before... the elevator came down from the 26th floor.

Now all the elevator buttons have turned into numbers, but just now, Gu Pingsheng carefully entered the total number of buttons.

Excluding the emergency call buttons, all the buttons with numbers... there are only twenty-five in total.

That is to say, there are two situations now.

First, this building does not have twenty-six floors at all. The twenty-fifth floor is its top floor.

Second, this building has 26 floors, but the elevator is not the same elevator as before. If you can find a way to reach the 26th floor, you may be able to return to the normal world...

So...which possibility is it?
