The wolf-dog was quite big. Lin Quying would be a little scared when meeting this dog in the corridor. However, the time between turning off the voice-activated light and turning it on was so short, but during this process, not even a cry was uttered.
The wolfdog is gone!
Lin Quying was so frightened that she immediately dropped the dog leash, then quickly started to retreat and looked around. At this time, the chanting of the "Great Compassion Mantra" coming from Cao Zhong's mobile phone did not give him any sense of security.
He waved the fruit knife in his hand and looked around in shock, but he saw nothing.
At this time, he boldly looked towards the gap between the handrails of the stairs on both sides and looked at the bottom floor. However, there was silence below and there was nothing.
Recalling that the wolf-dog didn't dare to move forward just now, could it be that animals can see spirits more clearly than humans?
Now, what should we do?
No one directed them, but what Lin Quying and Cao Zhong did next was to automatically retreat, full of intense fear!
Finally, both of them started to run away and fled back to the 10th floor in one breath!
Lin Quying hurriedly took out the key and quickly opened the door. The two rushed in. Cao Zhong quickly closed the door, and then she felt like she had saved her life.
At this time, both of them felt like they were going crazy. No matter how weird and terrifying the scene in the building opposite was before, it still had nothing to do with them, but now, their own lives were highly threatened.
At this time, Cao Zhong gasped for air and turned off the chanting sound played on his mobile phone. He now also understood that the Guanyin Bodhisattva and the Great Compassion Mantra were of no use.
"Is there...is there any way...to contact the writer called Black Will-o'-the-Wisp?" At this time, Cao Zhong turned to look at Lin Quying and gasped: "What if he wrote it based on his real experience?"
That book, then he must also be a resident of the apartment, can I contact him?"
"He has a book club. If you join the group, you might be able to get in touch with him."
"Nagaqun! Ask him if there is any way to solve the current trouble!"
"But why does he want to help us? According to the plot of the novel, that apartment is not short of money at all, otherwise..."
“I’ll contact you as soon as I ask you to do so, why are you talking so much nonsense!”
Cao Zhong's roar made Lin Quying's legs tremble in fright, and she said: "Okay, I, I understand!"
He quickly found the book club QQ group number announced by Black Willow, entered the group number 538144826, and then three verification questions quickly appeared. Only those who answered correctly can join the group.
The first question is, what are the names of the male and female protagonists in "Thrilling Space"?
"I know this." When Lin Quying was in college, she had watched "Thriller Space", which is the debut novel of Black Will-o'-the-Wisp and tells the story of a brother and sister who can sense spirits.
"Yin Yuan, Yin Rui." He quickly entered the two names.
The second question is: What is the collective curse event with the largest number of deaths in "444 Tower"?
"This question... is damning. I've been looking at it for so long that I can't think clearly anymore."
Cao Zhong kicked Lin Quying hard in the abdomen and said angrily: "Is this the fucking group number?"
"There used to be many groups, but Black Willow Fire had a falling out with several readership groups, and as a result many groups disbanded. This is the only book club group now."
"You can check it online!"
"This... has the largest number of deaths, and no one is counting it. Why don't you go to Baidu and post a question..."
Lin Quying was really frightened to the extreme at this time. He also hoped to contact Black Will-o'-the-Wisp. He desperately began to recall that the book "444 Building" was extremely famous back then. The plot set that 444 Building was a building cursed by the devil.
Once you move in, you will definitely encounter a terrifying collective curse. Those collective curses are extremely weird. For example, people will turn into paper dolls inexplicably, or they will suddenly be particularly afraid of a specific object.
"By the way, I thought about it! The fear of a specific item is in Volume 13! That collective curse broke out when the protagonist went to his hometown, and then the entire village in the protagonist's hometown died."
Lin Quying checked and found out that the plot of the thirteenth volume of "444 Building" is indeed like this. This volume is called the "Black Pupil Curse Incident". Cursed people will be extremely afraid of black pupils, and then they will do whatever it takes to destroy other people's eyes.
Digging out his eyes would be the same thing if he saw his own black pupils in the mirror. Lin Quying remembers that she was very nervous while watching that volume, because as long as the protagonist saw any reflective objects and saw his own eyes, it would be over.
"The plot sounds quite imaginative." If it weren't for the current situation, Cao Zhong would have wanted to read this book. "What is the third question?"
"It's still a question about "444 Building"... Which evil spirit appears in "444 Building" and kills the most people?"
"What? Isn't it the same question just now?"
"No, evil spirits do not appear in every curse event." Lin Quying began to explain: "In fact, more than 30% of curse events do not have evil spirits, but some do..."
"Don't explain it to me! Which one is it specifically?"
"This... let me think about it... let me think about it... I'll check it out online. Baidu Encyclopedia has a detailed analysis of every curse event in "444 Building"."
Walking into the bedroom, Lin Quying quickly opened the Baidu search engine, entered 444 Building, and clicked on its Baidu Encyclopedia.
He began to look carefully at the specific analysis of each volume.
"The Curse of the Phone Booth in Volume 1, Curse of the Paper Man in Volume 2, Curse of the Magic Hand in Volume 3, Curse of the Shadow Map in Volume 4, Curse of the Black Bat in Volume 5, Curse of the Odd Floors in Volume 6, Curse of the Odd Floor in Volume 7,
roll……"
"Why, the more I read this analysis, the more it looks like the plot of the SCP Foundation..." Cao Zhong himself is a die-hard fan of the SCP Foundation. The more I read it, the more I feel that the author's imagination is scary. I heard Xin Mingyun derogatory to the black will-o'-the-wisp before,
I thought he was a not-so-good writer, but now it seems that this guy is just looking at the sky from the bottom of a well. How dare he say that he is a black will-o'-the-wisp with only a few successes?
"That's it! Great, Baidu Encyclopedia recorded the names of the dead characters, write them down! Well, one...two...three..." Soon, Lin Quying counted out the volume with the most deaths, which was the fortieth
A barrage curse event.
"Barrage Curse Incident?" Cao Zhong forgot his situation for a moment, and took a look at the introduction of that volume in Baidu Encyclopedia: "Every barrage in a specific video, once the four high-energy people in front are played,
If you write a word, you will definitely encounter the evil spirit that appears in the video. After you die, the video progress bar will automatically extend, and then there will be a picture of the person who posted the barrage being killed. After that, more people will post the barrage, and so on.
Infinite loop...isn't it? Such a horrific curse event didn't kill as many people as the previous one?"
"Because the protagonist solved the curse event through the curse rules in time, so that the video would automatically disappear before it was disseminated online. Otherwise, countless people would die."
Immediately afterwards, he wrote the answer to the evil spirit of the barrage curse incident and successfully joined the group. Then, he discovered that there were less than fifty people in the group.
"So few readers can answer these three questions?" Lin Quying knew that the popularity of black will-o'-the-wisps had declined recently, but the situation seemed to be much worse than he imagined.
The group leader is none other than the black will-o'-the-wisp, and his avatar is lit up!
Someone in the group quickly started posting QQ: "New people join the group, take photos immediately!"
"No new members have joined the group for a long time!"
"I bet with a pack of spicy strips and a big pig's trotters, the newcomer must have come in after searching online."
"Yuebao, are you a girl?"
"Everyone," Lin Quying immediately sent a message asking: "Is the group leader angry?"
"Who is Huo Da?" Cao Zhong asked.
"Black Will-o'-the-Wisp, or Huo Dai for short. It's strange, why is there no Konoha Golden Sparkle in this group? Black Will-o'-the-Wisp's number one fan."
"I am Black Will-O-Wisp." Unexpectedly, the group leader Black Will-O-Wisp appeared automatically: "If you can answer three questions correctly, it means you are also a die-hard reader."
"Huoda, let's chat privately! I have something important to do!"
"sure."
After the private chat, Lin Quying cleared her throat and started typing: "Well, I'm really angry, can I start a video chat?"
Photos of the black will-o'-the-wisp were found online, so he wanted to confirm whether the other party was the genuine black will-o'-the-wisp.
"Um...turn on the video, no need."
At this time, Lin Quying suddenly thought that according to the settings of "Devil's Apartment", the apartment could not play videos or take photos.
"Huo Da, please, please make a video call with me. I want to admire your dignity!"
