The layout of this house is completely different from the common local courtyards.
The whole house looks eerie and weird.
There is only a winding bluestone path in the courtyard, surrounded by some nearly dead trees and rockeries. For some unknown reason, a layer of mist has risen around it, blocking even the sunlight, making everything around it look hazy.
, there is a sense of unreality.
Only the old man leading the way.
His hand stretched out from the large black priest's uniform, and at some point, there was a weak kerosene lamp in his hand.
At this time, the kerosene lamp emitted a faint light, which flickered as it walked, making those who looked at it feel dizzy.
The old man, Ruby and Cao Weidong were walking on this bluestone path, surrounded by cold and quiet, as if they were two different worlds from the outside.
I don’t know how long I’ve been gone.
There is still no exit in sight.
It's as if as you walk, the bluestone path under your feet is also spreading infinitely, making you never reach the end.
Next to the bluestone path, red fruits appeared on the originally dry trees at some point, and they were shaking rhythmically, making a rustling sound.
Cao Weidong smelled the smell of blood.
Looking in the direction of the smell, he saw those fruits suddenly opening their big mouths, swallowing the companions around him, and chewing them with big mouthfuls.
The scarlet fruit juice flows down from Senran's mouth.
Scarlet and sticky.
Just like blood.
At this moment, the old man stopped and turned to look at Cao Weidong.
He took off the hood on his head.
Under the hood is a young, wrinkle-free face with clear features.
That is the face of a young man.
However, both the old man's rickety body and his old demeanor show that he is an out-and-out old man!
"Hello, guest from the East."
The old man opened his mouth.
Following his voice, the fruits on the dead tree suddenly fell from the tree. They moved in response, rolled around on the ground, and then grew stickman-like hands and feet, circling around Cao Weidong.<
/p>
"Guests from the East..."
"Hello..."
The little fruit people sang and danced, and exuded a sweet and cloying fragrance.
But when Cao Weidong smelled this fragrance, he felt nauseated in his heart and wanted to vomit out all his internal organs.
The old man continued.
"What's your purpose in coming to Hollywood?"
"Looking for someone."
Cao Weidong walked towards the old man with dull eyes and said casually.
"Who do you want to find?"
"Bruce Lee."
Cao Weidong continued to answer.
He stepped out with one foot and crushed several fruit villains directly, and their internal organs were mixed with sticky red liquid splashing out.
However, Cao Weidong suddenly didn't realize it and still walked forward step by step, making a snapping sound.
the old man asked.
"Who is Bruce Lee?"
"He is an actor, and I would like to invite him to return to Hong Kong to film."
"Oh...then what's your relationship with Song Shunci?" the old man suddenly asked, changing the subject.
Cao Weidong: "......"
The old man frowned and continued to ask.
"What is your relationship with Song Shunci?"
Cao Weidong pursed his lips, as if he had said something, but his voice was so low that it was almost inaudible.
The old man tilted his ears.
"What are you talking about?"
"I said you are a big fool!"
Cao Weidong had a bright look in his eyes. He flicked his sleeve, and a stick immediately flew out and hit the old man hard with a strong wind.
There was a sound of bones breaking on the old man's body.
He only had time to make a muffled sound before he flew out heavily. After landing, he pupated twice and then lay on the ground motionless.
The strange surroundings dissipated.
The little fruit man, all the mist is gone.
Cao Weidong shook his hand, and the confusion and hesitation completely disappeared, as if he was a different person.
"Pretend to be a ghost!"
Ruby was stunned.
He witnessed the whole incident, and he had goosebumps all over his body. His expression was horrified, and he turned around and ran away.
However, Cao Weidong moved faster.
With a little aim, he threw the stick directly.
Bang!
The stick hit Ruby squarely in the back of the heart.
Ruby fell in response.
Cao Weidong walked over, reached out and picked up the swing stick, then stepped on Ruby with one foot to stop him from getting up.
"Now I ask and you answer, do you hear me?"
Obviously, this was a trap set by Ruby for herself, using Bruce Lee as bait.
Ruby asked in astonishment.
"How did you break free from the fog of corruption?"
"Fog of Fallen?"
Cao Weidong sneered.
"It's just some hallucinogenic drugs. I've been on guard for a long time. These are of no use to me."
.......
In fact, after Xiaoxue entered the manor, Cao Weidong was keenly aware of the abnormalities here through the shared vision.
The bluestone paths, dead trees and rockeries deliberately create a scary atmosphere.
If you are not familiar with the surrounding environment, you will definitely be shocked.
And the white mist spreading in the manor...
Cao Weidong immediately recognized that the mist contained hallucinogenic drugs.
After so many years of self-study of Chinese patent medicines in the portable space, he can be regarded as a semi-expert, so he quickly came up with a way to solve the problem. Using the time he just spoke, he took out an eye-catching and refreshing pill and placed it on his tongue.
Next.
After the hallucination gradually deepened, he decisively swallowed the pills.
The pill quickly took effect, and Cao Weidong broke free from the hallucination and killed the old man, completing this magnificent reversal.
Ruby quickly reacted and said with an ugly expression.
"So, you knew this was a trap from the beginning? Who are you?"
Cao Weidong has no interest in telling Ruby this.
"Now I am interrogating you, not you asking me questions."
Just when he wanted to continue the interrogation, footsteps suddenly appeared around him, and there seemed to be more than one.
Knock, knock, knock...
More than ten people appeared around.
They are all wearing the same black clerical uniforms as the old man.
Walking up to Cao Weidong, these people took off their hoods, revealing young faces with clear eyes and kind smiles.
However, they held daggers, machetes, etc. in their hands.
Weird!
Extremely weird!
Just like a group of angels in white robes holding butcher knives.
It gives people a weird feeling of being out of place.
"The white prophecy brings God's grace. The world will eventually be destroyed, and the country will be engulfed by racial war and hatred. We are the chosen ones. We act as saviors and liberate the lambs raised by sin."
The believers sang rhythmic songs and gradually approached Cao Weidong.
This is a typical "self-brainwashing", "rebirth at the end of the world" and "savior" argument.
Cao Weidong's ears felt like calluses growing out of him.
Among the many online articles he had read in his previous life, which one did not have similar arguments?
However, in this world, these young people use this to brainwash themselves.
They pressed forward step by step, staring at Cao Weidong with stern eyes.
It seems to be saying——
Today we will transform into demons and do some demonic things.
Ruby was not honest at Cao Weidong's feet and made a sound like a wolf howling.
"Cao Weidong, you will definitely die today."
"Don't worry, we have already done something. They disguised themselves as you and me, drove the car out of Hollywood, and randomly dropped it off at the train station in the next city... By the time people found out you were missing, it was already too late.
”
"This is what happens when you offend our Manson family."
Cao Weidong's eyes turned cold.
"So you are also from the Manson family, so this is..."
