Chapter 3 Chapter 3 The Old House in the Video Tape

I sent back a few VCRs I bought in Jilin and put them at home. I didn’t want Aning to know my actual address—although she might already know it—so I sent Wang Meng to my house to pick them up. After the inner hall is connected, we will play the new tape on the small TV. The tape is black and white as always, and after the snowflakes, the inner hall of an old-fashioned house appears.I was shocked at the beginning, and then I realized that the layout of the house was no longer what we saw in Jilin. It was obviously a different place, with a lot more space and different furnishings. I don’t know. Where is it again.

When I was in Jilin, I finished watching the two tapes with my third uncle. There were snowflakes behind them. I read it many times and found no clues. Now there is a new tape. I thought there might be clues in it, but I can be cautious. Click to read it again. Wang Meng made tea for several people, and the fat man lay down on my recliner unceremoniously. I had to sit aside, and then sent Wang Meng outside to look at the shop, while keeping a distance from Ah Ning as much as possible.But at this time, Ah Ning also became serious, with a blank face, completely different from the playful just now.

The inner hall is very dark, with mottled light coming in from one side, looking through the light, it looks a bit like the wooden flower windows used in old houses in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, but black and white can't be seen clearly, you can see that at this time There was no one in the inner hall. The fat man winked at me and asked me if the content in the video tape that Poker-Face gave me was the same.I shook my head slightly to say no, and he showed a very surprised expression, turning his head to look carefully. However, for about 15 minutes later, the picture has not changed, only occasionally a snowflake shakes, which makes our hearts skip a beat.

I have experience, and I can still bear it. The fat man lost his temper and turned to Aning: "I said, Miss Ning, did you take the wrong belt?" Aning ignored him and just looked at me.But I held my breath, because I knew that this tape should also be a surveillance tape. It is very normal to have a picture of an empty inner hall. Since Aning wants to play this tape, there must be something unusual after a period of time. event occurs. Seeing that Ah Ning and I were not talking, the fat man also made fun of it. After taking a sip of tea, he wanted to go out. I pressed him to keep him from walking away, and then he sat down, scratching and scratching, looking extremely impatience.

I felt a dark fire in my heart, and it was not easy to attack, so I had to concentrate and calm down, and continued to look down, looking at the inner hall above, and I became a little impatient, really wanting to use fast forward to move forward a little. At this moment, Ah Ning straightened his body suddenly and made a gesture. Fatty and I sat up straight and looked at the screen carefully. On the screen, a gray figure appeared in the inner hall, moving out of the darkness, moving very strangely, and walking very slowly, as if drunk. I swallowed, and I had a few guesses in my mind, but I didn't know if it was right, and I also became nervous at this time.

Soon, the white shadow became more apparent, and when he moved to the window, he realized why this person was acting so strangely, because he was not walking at all, but crawling on the ground. I don't know if this person is a man or a woman. I only know that he is unkempt, wearing clothes like a shroud, and crawling slowly and hard on the ground. What makes me feel strange is that his crawling posture is very weird. Either this person has a disability, or this person has been extremely abused.I just saw a news that in some remote villages, some villagers locked their wives with mental problems in the cellar. When the wives were released, they could no longer walk. This is what it feels like to me.

We were silent as we watched him crawl across the screen and disappear soundlessly on the other side.Then, before us, a still, quiet inner hall resumed. The whole process lasted a little over seven minutes, and what made people mad was that there was no sound. It was very uncomfortable to watch such a person crawling past without a sound. Aning pressed the remote control, turned the tape upside down, played it again, then stopped and said to us: "Don't look at the rest, the problem is here." "What exactly do you mean?" The fat man was puzzled and asked me, "Comrade Innocent, who is this person?"

"How do I know!" I said depressedly. I thought I would see Huo Ling appearing again, but I didn't expect it to not. This made me even more puzzled. Looking at the hunched look, if it was indeed sent by the same person, The video tape should be recorded by Huo Ling. Could it be that Huo Ling is too old to even stand up in this video tape? The fat man asked Ah Ning again, what was going on, and what was this photographed? "What do you think you saw?" Aning asked us. "You have to ask, isn't this just a person crawling across the floor of a house?" the fat man said.

Aning ignored him, looked at me meaningfully, and asked, "What do you think?" He seemed to want to see something from me. I looked at Aning's expression and asked strangely, "Isn't it?" She narrowed her eyes in confusion and surprise: "You...don't have any other special feelings?" I was puzzled, and glanced at the fat man, who was staring at the video tape, made a "hmm" sound there, and shook his head: "No." Aning stared at me for a long time, then sighed, and said, "Okay then, let's read the second volume, I hope you can be mentally prepared."

Speaking of which, the second tape was also put in. This time, Aning did not let us watch from the beginning, but started to fast-forward the tape until fifteen minutes later, she looked at me and said: "You... the last Take a deep breath." I was really a little panicked when I told her, but the fat man was impatient, and said: "Do you underestimate people? You don't want to inquire about it. Comrade Xiao Wu can be regarded as running on the scene, going up the snow mountain and getting angry Hai, I don't believe there is anything else that can scare him, don't stir up your little women's emotions here, Xiao Wu, you just say something, isn't that the reason?"

I ignored him and let Aning start. In the inner room of my own shop, I don't believe I can be afraid. Aning glared at the fat man, and the video started playing again. The scene was still in the inner hall, but the camera lens seemed to vibrate a little, as if someone was adjusting it.After shaking for two minutes, the camera was straightened, and then, a face poked up from under the camera. At the beginning, the focus was not good, and it was too close to see clearly, but I already saw that the person was not Huo Ling.Then, the man's face moved back, and a man wearing a gray shroud appeared in the camera. He sat on the ground trembling, his hair was disheveled, but after a few turns, I still saw his face . At the same time, the fat man yelled in surprise, and suddenly turned his head to look at me, and I suddenly felt a chill from my back to my forehead, and at the same time opened my mouth wide, almost suffocating. On the screen, the face of the man who turned his head and looked around like a lunatic was very familiar, and it took me a few seconds to recognize it-it turned out to be me!
