Chapter 7 Chapter 4 Test of Courage

I don't know when the test of courage became popular in various young people's gatherings. Under the guise of improving friendship and coordination, the organizers are matched by a man and a woman, and enter the deserted mountain monuments, or look for something hidden in the long-uninhabited house.Of course, there are also men and women who work together to sign at the designated location and then walk back. In short, the current test of courage has evolved into an interesting confession between men and women to enhance their relationship, and there are also activities for boys purely for profit. In addition to the sorority that is similar to a blind date just now, it is clear with your knees that the four boys on the opposite side are not With good intentions.

But the three girls didn't know whether they were pretending to be stupid or they really didn't think of this level. They just exclaimed and made a shy look of fear, but no one objected. And Lin Xiaowei couldn't bring up the matter of leaving again. The situation has developed into the current situation, and she is very afraid that something will happen to Qian Jing.People are indeed a combination of contradictions, even the smartest people will unknowingly sink deeper and deeper into contradictions. The four of Gao Xiang each drove an expensive car alone, and drove one of the girls towards the destination one after another.

The autumn moon hangs high in the sky. After leaving the city and coming to the suburbs, I can’t find any street lamps. The surroundings naturally dim, and only the moonlight is left on the road. Sitting in Gao Xiang's sports car, Lin Xiaowei suddenly felt that the moonlight was very strange, not the usual silvery white.She looked up subconsciously, and through the skylight, the moon in the sky was actually covered with a faint blood color. blood moon? She couldn't help feeling terrified.It is said that the blood moon is very unlucky, and there will be ghosts and ghosts.Surely it's not suitable to hold a test of courage now?But telling the unreasonable rich second generation next to her would only invite ridicule, she shook her head and decided to be more careful.

After driving for about half an hour, the four cars finally stopped in an extremely remote place in the western suburbs of Gaolong City.There are dark shadows in the distance, and there seems to be some huge building. The autumn wind in October was quite chilly, and the eight people who got out of the car couldn't help shivering. "Where is this place?" Xie Xin just came to this city not long ago, seeing the desolate and dark environment around him, he asked with some fear and excitement. "This place is not simple, it is a famous haunted house in Gaolong City." Gao Xiang said proudly: "It is said that more than 70 years ago, a warlord spent a lot of money to build these Western-style buildings, and it took five years to repair and live in them. But the good times didn't last long. Later, because of political The struggle failed, and she fled abroad in a hurry, leaving all her family members behind, and her concubine hanged herself in a room inside."

"Later, the house was used as a residence for local officials, but people died after it was renovated, and the officials didn't dare to live in it, so it was left unused. I heard that it changed hands several times, but as a result, people died frequently as soon as it was renovated. Until now, this building Many, many strange things happened inside, and whenever it was a stormy night or a full moon night, there would be crying and the sound of breaking glass bottles in the room." Gao Xiang shone a flashlight on his face, giving him an eerie feeling.The three girls were so frightened that they trembled and were startled.

"And, and, and oh." Seeing that the horror story had already had an effect, Pang Tong continued vigorously and said, "If you ever pass by these old houses in the hot summer, you will suddenly be attacked by bursts of coolness. This is true. fact of existence." "Someone once did an experiment and found that the temperature in front of the house was several degrees lower than the place 20 meters away. As for whether it was caused by ghosts or ghosts, I don't know." "The haunted house you are talking about is this place, right?" Qian Jing's face turned pale with fright. She is very timid and most afraid of ghosts.

"That's a must." Li Xi nodded and looked at her, "Are you scared?" "A little bit." Qian Jing shivered. "Don't be afraid, I will protect you." Li Xi grabbed her hand with a smirk. Qian Jing's face turned red immediately, she struggled for a while and then stopped resisting. Lin Xiaowei frowned, and wanted to remind her best friend a few words, but in the end the wise Jiang swallowed the words back.No matter how close a friend is, there are still some things that can't be said, and it will only affect the relationship, not to mention Qian Jing's bad intentions.

Speaking of which, although she is a local, she really hasn't noticed these buildings.The scope of a city is indeed very large. There are many legends about haunted houses in each city. Who knows if it is true or not?Maybe what you said just now is just a fake story used to deceive innocent little girls. "Let's go and have a look." With a big wave of his hand, Gao Xiang happily took the flashlights from the car, and each of them fired one.She walked at the front of the team and walked straight towards the dark building. The western suburbs are deserted, with weeds growing everywhere.Because it is far away from the city, people around have basically moved into the city to live, so the neighborhood looks even more abandoned.The dark red moonlight spread over the overgrown grass, casting a red shadow on everything.A dilapidated concrete road on the ground twists and turns, extending towards the rather spectacular building.

Girls are usually timid. In this terrifying atmosphere, even Lin Xiaowei couldn't stop her heart from being abnormal, and Qian Jing was even more unbearable, her whole body was almost stuck in her arms. Han Qin and Xie Xin were not much better, with nervous expressions on their faces. Looking at the four smiling men beside him, you can tell what they are thinking without even kneeling, but even so, none of the girls mentioned that they want to leave.Lin Xiaowei thought coldly, the current situation is simply that Zhou Yu is beating Huang Gai, one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer. Li Xi and others have ruined the innocence and life of many innocent girls with this method!

The buildings became clearer as they approached, the blood moon in the sky was quite bright, and even without a flashlight, the original appearance of those buildings could be seen quite clearly. Sure enough, there were a few large Western-style houses with pointed roofs, dark bodies, and small trees growing on the roofs.Due to years of disrepair, most of the glass was broken, and the unbroken windows were dark, reflecting the cold bloody moonlight like a mirror. Lin Xiaowei's eyes are very good. From a distance, on the exquisite balcony of the house in the middle, the door leading to the inside is blocked.The creepers on the walls of the building formed a weird shape under the moonlight.

It seemed like the ferocious face of a dying person. Thinking of this, Lin Xiaowei couldn't help but shudder, and hurriedly looked away. After walking for about ten minutes, the group was blocked by a rusty iron gate, and thick iron chains were still wrapped around the iron gate. "It looks like you can't get in." Xie Xin let out a sigh of relief. Although she didn't say anything, no girl was willing to enter this haunted place. "Hey, I've explored the way and I'm well prepared." Grinning, Gao Xiang took out a pair of long metal pliers from the grass on one side, and after a lot of effort, he cut the iron chain on the door, "You can go in now." He pushed the door, and the iron door, which was already rusted to the point of crumbling, made a piercing grinding sound. After a few more pushes, the door barely opened a small gap that only allowed one person to pass through.Gao Xiang took the lead to drill through. After a moment of hesitation, the girl also went in. As soon as she entered the door, Han Qin suddenly screamed and jumped into Gao Xiang's arms in fright. "What's the matter?" Someone offered to throw himself into his arms, and Gao Xiang was naturally happy to take advantage of it. "Look over there, it's scary!" Han Qin made a frightened expression that she was about to cry. Everyone looked in the direction she was pointing at, and when their eyes touched that position, they couldn't help but feel chills down their backs. I saw that the two sides of the iron gate were densely pasted with talisman papers on the wall. I don’t know how many years of wind and rain have made each talisman paper old and old, and the writing on it can hardly be seen clearly. .Under the moonlight, the cinnabar was dark red like clotted blood, so weird that it made the scalp tingle. "It's normal for a haunted house to have stickers." Although Pang Tong was also afraid, he was more concerned about whether he could get Xie Xin smoothly.Seeing that pure and lovely little sister looking frightened and helpless, he immediately moved her fat body closer, "Don't be afraid, I will protect you." "Hmm. Thanks." Xie Xin lowered her head shyly, not knowing what was going on in her mind. Seeing that she did not explicitly refuse, Pang Tong was immediately overjoyed. "Are we really going to go in and explore?" Qian Jing hesitated. "What are you afraid of? I'm here." Li Xiyang raised his head, and hugged her waist very naturally. Qian Jing was really scared, she let him hold her without moving, and even found time to covertly reach out her hand and make a V sign to Lin Xiaowei. Lin Xiaowei could only smile wryly. After entering the iron gate, there is a huge courtyard, and there is a western-style circular fountain not far away.Perhaps it was because no one had been in for a long time, the yard was covered with kobresia as tall as a person, and the fountain had been damaged long ago, turning into useless building materials, lying on the ground mournfully. Due to the close distance, the three buildings with a height of more than ten meters looked more majestic and decayed.Even if you are far away from the gate, you can still feel a decaying and cold breath blowing towards your face. Such an oppressive place, as a city resident, doesn't know anything about it. Lin Xiaowei feels a little ignorant, and also has a little admiration for Gao Xiang and others.These guys are not ordinary rich second generations. They actually ran to such a wild place in order to pick up girls. They really are poor and boring enough. Everyone came step by step to the gate of the most majestic house in the middle, only to see the deserted foyer, the moonlight flowing like blood, and two stone lions standing in front of the gate. Lin Xiaowei frowned. A Western-style house with a Chinese-style lion must have a weird personality. The eyes of these two lions are a bit strange.Trying to look at it for a few seconds, although she didn't feel anything special, she always felt uncomfortable. The shape of the lion is different from the common auspicious beasts nearby. It does seem to be a few years old. It should be a male and female pair, with the male on the left and the female lion on the right.Among them, on the chest of the male lion carved in one piece, the place where the bell should have been hung has been taken away by someone, and there is nothing left. There is a gap in the gate behind the stone lion, and the gate is pitch black, and nothing can be seen. Gao Xiang took out a handful of paper balls and yelled, "Come on, draw lots. Those who draw the same number will form a team. The rules of the test of courage are very simple. The team with the largest number is the first group, and they have to take the sign-in book to the building. At the highest place, after signing, just take out something that is in the house, and then the second team will continue to go up until the last team enters and takes back the sign-in book. Let's see if anyone did not follow the rules. " The setting of the game is really simple, but Lin Xiaowei always feels an unknown danger flowing around her. So everyone began to draw lots, there were eight balls of paper in total, she held one ball with two slender fingers like green onions, and opened it to see that the number one was written on it. Gao Xiang snickered vaguely, don't think about it, there must be something wrong with the paper ball. The result confirmed Lin Xiaowei's guess.Except for her and Han Qin, everyone was quite satisfied with the pairing. That fat man Pang Tong was in the first team, with Xie Xin in the same group. Li Xi and Qian Jing are the second group. The obscene-looking Ding Lei and Han Qin are the third group. As for himself, he was in the last group with Gao Xiang. After arranging the order, Xie Xin's team got into the black door with a flashlight.The sound of hollow footsteps changed from near to far away, and finally disappeared. About half an hour later, Xie Xin walked out, clinging to Pang Tong like mud. "How do you feel?" Gao Xiang asked meaningfully. "It's not as scary as I imagined. Hehe." Pang Tong showed a "you understand" expression, and placed a broken clock in his hand on the ground. The second group set off and came back after half an hour.Qian Jing was also frightened like mud and was supported by Li Xi, and they brought back a dirty hand. The third group set off amidst Han Qin's reluctance. After returning, the girl's expression changed a lot. She was smiling happily. It seemed that Ding Lei had promised her a lot.They brought back a broken glass. The last group is her and Gao Xiang, and the male creatures beside them are very happy and a little excited.He couldn't wait to pull her in, Lin Xiaowei dodged lightly, avoiding his hand. Gao Xiang's face changed, as if he was suppressing his anger.He shrugged his shoulders, smiled again and said, "Go in." Lin Xiaowei glanced at him. Although she was scared, she still walked into the dark building first. No matter what, she couldn't be taken advantage of by those dirty and annoying guys. As soon as I entered the door, I saw an empty hall, and the huge house was empty.Due to the large amount of glass, the moonlight from the outside world can occasionally leak in, and with the flashlight in hand, although the surrounding area is dim, it is not impossible to see things at all. The ceiling in the center of the hall is almost eight meters high, and the huge crystal lamp has long been mutilated and out of shape.Lin Xiaowei moved her feet, the dust on the ground was thick, and many messy footprints stretched not far away, which should have been stepped on by the three teams before. "I'll lead the way, girls must be afraid of these things." Gao Xiang laughed and flattered him. "No." Lin Xiaowei's voice was still cold, "Follow these footprints, and you will be able to go up soon." Gao Xiang's smile froze in embarrassment. Lin Xiaowei ignored him, she just wanted to finish this damn game quickly, who knows if the male creature next to him will suddenly turn into a human being in this wilderness and now in the situation of being alone and widowed? Wolf, do things that make you worry and fear. She smiled wryly. She was originally worried about her sister's finding out, but Qian Jing hadn't had any problems yet, so why did she trap herself in it.Fortunately, Gao Xiang seemed to disdain non-technical behaviors like coercion, and he didn't make any outrageous moves, just followed her step by step with a muffled voice.This reassured her a little. There is a five-meter-wide staircase in the center of the hall, which should lead to the second floor. Lin Xiaowei walked straight up the stairs without hesitation.When I reached the second floor, I saw a very long corridor. The two sides of the corridor looked like a hotel, with many room doors densely arranged, but all the doors were closed tightly. There was only one way, so she walked down the corridor, and when she reached the end, another staircase appeared. Suddenly, I heard a noisy noise in my ears, as if a group of children were running past me. Lin Xiaowei turned around abruptly, only to see a strange expression on Gao Xiang's face, and behind him, except for the darkness, was an empty corridor that could be seen at a glance.The red carpet in the corridor is dilapidated, the original red is gray, with a tormenting depression. "Is it your fault?" She frowned and asked coldly. "What are you talking about?" Gao Xiang scratched his head. "Did you play those voices with a tape recorder?" Seeing him pretending to be stupid, she was very angry. "What's the sound? Why didn't I hear it?" Gao Xiang looked innocent, "You saw it when you entered the door. There is such a thick circle of iron chains. Even if I want to do my hands and feet, I have to go in and arrange it first." Lin Xiaowei didn't believe his words, but there was no proof, so she could only snort coldly, "Stay away from me, five meters away. Don't come near me." "What's going on with this woman!" Gao Xiang muttered in a low voice, and took five or six steps back helplessly. Only then did Lin Xiaowei slowly walk towards the third floor. Coming to the third floor, it also looks like the layout of the second floor, with straight corridors and many rooms.At the end of the corridor, where the picture frame was originally hung, there is now a book with the signatures of the first three teams on it. Lin Xiaowei let out a sigh of relief in her heart, and finally reached the end.After she wrote her name on the sign-in book, she picked up a cracked metal pipe from the nearby ground.The short pipe should be a part of the candlestick, and due to the invasion of time, it has been covered with copper rust. Soon, Gao Xiang also signed his name, took the sign-in book and wanted to lean towards her. "Stay away from me, five meters." Lin Xiaowei warned. Gao Xiang was very helpless, and opened the distance again dumbfounded. I went down from the third floor to the first floor without any risk, and when I was about to go out, the strange thing happened again.She suddenly felt something coming towards her, and she climbed onto her shoes from the ground, and crawled in along her jeans legs. The touch of that thing is very strange, as if a ball of hair with life is desperately scurrying on the skin. Lin Xiaowei was taken aback. She screamed and jumped up and down on the spot while clutching the ball with her hands reflexively.Gao Xiang was also frightened by her, subconsciously took a few steps back. She felt that her hands were covering a very elastic mass, which was definitely not a mouse, but a mass of thick hair.Lin Xiaowei felt that her heart was about to explode, but before she fainted from fright, the hair in her trouser legs seemed to start to evaporate.It kept getting smaller and smaller after a few seconds, and finally disappeared completely into the jeans. Lin Xiaowei was stunned, and it took a long time to recover. The people outside the door all ran in after hearing the screams. Seeing her pale with fright, and Gao Xiang who was at a loss, they couldn't figure out what was going on. Qian Jing gave Gao Xiang a hard look, helped her up and said, "Xiaowei, did that bastard Gao Xiang do something outrageous to you?" Feeling a little tired. "I'm tired, let's go back." Everyone looked at each other, and with Gao Xiang's acquiescence, the test of courage broke up unhappy. The girls left in the car driven by the boy.Lin Xiaowei sat in Gao Xiang's car, looking at the dark scene outside the car.Her mind was in a mess, that group of hair was definitely not a prank by Gao Xiang and others, unless they had special abilities, how could they get the hair into her clinging trouser legs? But what happened just now is hard to explain no matter how you think about it.Maybe, I really hit a ghost! The blood moon was hidden in the clouds, and the sky was dark. Gao Xiang wanted to talk to her, but when he saw her expression, he retracted the words as soon as they came to his lips.The atmosphere in the car was stuck in silence and it was hard to extricate itself. After an unknown amount of time, the city finally arrived. Just after entering the place with street lights, the sharp-eyed Lin Xiaowei saw a bus stop where several taxis were parked boredly, so she yelled, "Stop." Gao Xiang stepped on the brake subconsciously, and before he could react, Lin Xiaowei had already opened the car door and walked out.He saw the girl getting into a taxi and leaving, he was so angry that his teeth were about to gnaw.I had already booked a room at the hotel, and I tried my best to trick her, but I didn't expect that it would be nothing in the end. "Smelly bitch, one day I will put you on the bed. Just wait and see!" Gao Xiang spat hard out of the car, and drove away. No one expected that this time the test of courage would actually become a reminder for several people.
