Chapter 4 Chapter Three The First Night

At seven o'clock, Ye Wan walked into the restaurant and sat down, there were only four people on the long western-style table.Uncle Zhang and Mama Zhang didn't eat in the restaurant, they ate in the kitchen.The restaurant is very simple, there are no decorations, only a western-style wall clock is placed on the wall next to the host.There are not many diners, but there are a lot of tableware. Because it is a long Western-style table, it is not convenient for Chinese-style dining, so each person chooses a meal and puts it in front of him. It is a very hygienic and elegant way of dining.

After my aunt bowed her head and prayed before the meal, the dinner officially began.I don't know if it was because of the arrival of her, an outsider, that the atmosphere at the table was a bit dull.Ye Wan peeked at her aunt, Shen Dan, and He Yi. The three had different expressions, but no matter whether they were normal or abnormal, none of them looked happy. They ate with their heads down and thoughtful. "What a quiet dinner." Ye Wan smiled, expressing that the atmosphere was too dull. Ye Caixia heard the sarcasm in Ye Wan's words, she twitched the corner of her mouth in embarrassment, it was a very forced smile.Then I gave a very reluctant explanation, saying that this is in line with the color of the ruins, which used to be called the "Rose Garden of the Ruins".

Ye Wan was startled, her aunt actually knew its previous name, so did she know or didn't know about the terrible events before?Ye Wan had always been curious about the Ruins Rose Garden, but she didn't dare to ask directly. After thinking about it in her heart, Ye Wan interviewed her aunt from the side. "Since it was called 'Desolate Ruins Rose Garden' before, there must be a lot of roses planted, has Auntie seen it?" Ye Wan asked. "Maybe there are roses, but when I moved here, there were no roses." Ye Caixia answered vaguely. "There is a herd of pigs possessed by ghosts, and there is a rose garden possessed by ghosts. After the rose garden is possessed by ghosts, the roses will all die."

Shen Dan suddenly interrupted and said a strange and confusing remark, and after he finished speaking, he concentrated on eating as if he hadn't spoken at all.Ye Wan looked at her aunt, expressing that she did not understand this profound sentence, and hoped to get her explanation.But my aunt didn't speak, her face, which was still pleasant just now, became dark and gloomy at the moment. "The herd of pigs possessed by demons is the content of chapter eight, verses 31 to 33, of the "Bible? New Testament? Gospel of Luke." Jesus punished the demons possessed by people and punished them to The cold bottomless pit. The ghost saw a pigsty on the mountain, and a large group of pigs were eating in the pigsty. So the ghost begged Jesus not to tell them to go to the cold bottomless pit, let them enter the pigsty Go. Jesus granted the demon’s request, and the demon came out of the man and entered the pigsty. As a result, the pigs in the pigsty ran off the cliff and were thrown into the lake and drowned.” Another person at the table explained.

He Yi's explanation made Ye Wan finally understand Shen Dan's words. She looked at Shen Dan in disbelief. The other party's abnormal mind actually knew how to quote scriptures. "There are pigs possessed by ghosts, and there are rose gardens possessed by ghosts." Does it imply that this place is not clean?Ye Wan looked at her aunt suspiciously. At this moment, her aunt's face became even more ugly, and she stood up and left the restaurant without even saying a polite word.The departure of the hostess made the quiet dinner even more deserted. Looking at Shen Dan's weird face, Ye Wan didn't have a good appetite, so she hurriedly filled her stomach and ended the dinner.

Back in the room, Ye Wan had the desire to lie down and rest.Coming here alone was a big change in her life, and she wanted to start a new life here.Ye Wan hadn't started to imagine what kind of life it would be like, the exhaustion became more intense after eating, and she fell asleep.If she hadn't been awakened by a crash, she believed she would have slept until dawn.But at this time it was too late, Ye Wan opened her sleepy eyes to listen, and after the collision sound came a dull sound, as if it came from a blocked throat, struggling irritably and angrily.The sound didn't last long, and after a while, calmness was restored.

Ye Wan opened the door and looked outside, the corridor was very quiet, and the floor was also very quiet, as if nothing happened.Is she dreaming?If it wasn't a dream, why didn't anyone else move?Ye Wan knocked on the door of He Yi's room, but there was no response from the door, maybe she was asleep or not in the room.She knocked on Uncle Zhang's mother's room again, but she didn't seem to be in the room either.Ye Wan walked to the third floor, the corridor was also very quiet, a dark light made the atmosphere even more gloomy.She knocked lightly on the door of her aunt's room, but there was no response.Ye Wan started to get scared, because the house was as quiet as an abandoned mansion, as if she was the only one.

"No! I won't give in, you devils, poor god-forsaken wretches. Don't try to challenge me, I'm the undefeated Hera, and I'll fight back until, crucified you one by one , wait and see! wait and see!" From above came a woman's voice, like the lines of a priestess in an opera house.The abnormal voice, without thinking too much, Ye Wan can tell that it must be Shen Dan who has a mental problem.From this point of view, it seemed that only she and Shen Dan were awake in the house, Ye Wan felt a little dangerous, she didn't want to be alone with the beast. When I walked downstairs, there was no one in the living room, and no one else downstairs.Ye Wan put on her shoes, opened the house door and went out.At this time, the outer courtyard was already shrouded in darkness, and it felt like a ruin, quiet, and uninhabited.The isolated ruins are creepy under the dark night, Ye Wan panicked and wanted to find someone reliable.Behind the garage she found a long, stair-like descending, eerie, catacomb-like passageway.

Ye Wan stood at the entrance of the aisle before recovering, an angry roar erupted from the long aisle.After a long, terrible passage, she realized that she was standing in front of the wolfhound's den.Ye Wan turned around and quickly ran back to the house.As soon as the door was closed, a black figure jumped on the door of the house and yelled viciously, then left with an angry roar. "You just came here, and it's still unfamiliar to you, so it's a bit hostile." Someone's voice came from behind, Ye Wan turned her head following the voice, and saw He Yi standing on the stairs.His appearance finally gave this deserted house a little life, and also made Ye Wan's panicked mood a little more stable.She asked him while changing her shoes, did something happen just now, why is there no one in the room?

"Is there something wrong? I was on the balcony with Shen Dan just now." He Yi walked down the stairs and said, with a dazed and ignorant expression. Ye Wan looked at the wall clock in the dining room, the time was 11:15, the door of the cage containing the beast had already been opened, but it was too lazy to come out.Thinking of the thrill just now, when the sharp teeth of the beast almost collided with her own bones, Ye Wan couldn't help shivering, and after shivering, she thought of another person, which was her aunt. He Yi once again explained that her aunt had a habit of insomnia, she had to take Valium tablets at night, and it was difficult to wake up when she fell asleep.Let her stop thinking about it, it's already very secluded here, don't scare yourself anymore.He Yu is a little hungry now, he wants to go to the kitchen to get some food, and asks Ye Wan if he wants something.Ye Wan shook her head, looking at the carefree doctor, she dissatisfiedly accused him of being too negligent and should let the patient go to bed earlier at night, doesn't he know that the quality of sleep is very important to mental patients.

"My patient has problems, but IQ is not a problem. She will know how to choose the time to take medicine." He Yi said in a doctor's tone, "Too compulsive behavior will make her develop malicious resistance. As long as there is no harm , it’s better to follow her wishes, especially if she can’t be suppressed, it’s better to say what you want to say.” He Yi explained seriously, leaving Ye Wan unable to find anything to refute.Watching He Yi enter the empty door leading to the kitchen, she slowly walked upstairs.Walking to the entrance of the second floor, seeing Zhang Ma coming out of the room, Ye Wan quickly asked: "Are you in the room, why didn't you answer when you knocked on the door just now?" "Oh, I was in the toilet when you knocked on the door." Mama Zhang looked a little embarrassed. Ye Wan still felt something was wrong, thinking of the collision sound, she asked her what was going on.Also, the two doors of the house will be locked before going to bed, why didn't the iron door be locked tonight.Mama Zhang smiled unnaturally. The sound of the collision was her husband accidentally knocking over something when he was drunk. Now she went downstairs to lock the door, and Mama Zhang hurried downstairs after speaking. He Yi and Zhang Ma's answers made Ye Wan feel that all her worries and doubts seemed superfluous.Back in the room, she looked out at the courtyard from the window. The night warrior was pacing arrogantly up and down in the dark outer courtyard.The strong body is just like a wolf, grinning, the red tongue hangs on the big mouth full of fangs, like a sneer, who wants to come and try the taste of fangs.The defiant attitude seems to tell everyone that this is its territory. Looking at it, Ye Wan couldn't help but think of the man who suffered ten years ago. He died here in such pain, will his ghost linger?There is a very strange smell here, just as Shen Dan said, there is a ghost possessed, it is this kind of gloomy ghost smell.The language of a lunatic is often a true portrayal of the heart, without any pretense, and bursts out all his feelings, rough, crazy, and true and straightforward.From Shen Dan's crazy words, Ye Wan couldn't imagine how she was stimulated. It may be that there are too many doubts, Ye Wan can't fall asleep, she always feels that there are some weird sounds in the house.It was past one o'clock, Ye Wan, who couldn't sleep, opened the door again, she wanted to go to the bathroom.Walking to the bathroom door, I saw black shadows flickering inside the glass sliding door, making noises from time to time.Ye Wan's nerves became tense again, she stayed outside the door and dared not go in, fearing that she would see ghosts if she opened the door. When she was at a loss, the bathroom door opened, Ye Wan was shocked, and the people inside were also shocked. "Why haven't you slept yet?" Mama Zhang looked at her and asked in surprise. "I can't sleep." Ye Wan said distressedly. "You just came here, you may not be used to it, I'll make you a bowl of calming soup, which will help you sleep." Ye Wan felt relieved by Mama Zhang's kind expression, she also cared about him, and asked why she was still up. "Oh, don't mention it, the old man got drunk and vomited, which made me unable to sleep. If I don't clean up tonight, Mrs. Shen will have an opinion tomorrow." Zhang Ma said, putting down the washbasin and rag in her hand, " I'll make you some soothing soup first." There was some alcohol smell in the air, Ye Wan looked at Zhang Ma's back as she went downstairs, and felt that this employer was not bad.
