I Was Once a Legend
158 Phantom in the Mirror
Dong Zheng was the first to sneak into someone's house in a sneaky way, but he was also very skilled at doing it. His cat in the corner of the wall was covered by shrubs, confirmed that there was no one in the corridor, and quietly opened the window and drilled into it.
As soon as he entered, he felt something was wrong. The memorial service only passed one day, but the scene in the corridor was very different. Every window and every lamp hung the purple that I saw on the second floor. The purse and the faint scent flew in the air, making Dong Zheng feel sick.
At this time, even the servant had also rested, and there was no one in the corridor. After confirming the location, Dong Zheng sneaked in the direction of the basement entrance he explored.
Countless purses hang from the lights, blocking the lights, making everything more dim and revealing a dark purple color.Dong Zheng was reluctant to breathe the aroma that he didn't know what to do. He held his breath and walked through the corridor quickly. When he was about to turn, a tightly closed door in front of him suddenly slowly opened without warning.
A dazzling beam of light emerged from it and reflected coldly on his retina.
Shocked in Dong Zheng's heart, he immediately went sideways to hide, but instead of following him, the light disappeared.
Dong Zheng frowned and slowly approached the door. The only flashlight in the family was taken away by Fickers. He did not carry any lighting tools, but he was more able to adjust the flow of the visual port to enhance his vision. Dark environment.
Through a false door gap, Dong Zheng found that the room was full of mirrors.
The light he saw just now was the outside light reflected from the mirror surface, because of the problem of his position, it specifically shined on his eyes.
The countless mirrors reflected him looking through the cracks in the door. Dong Zheng turned around to make sure no one was around, pushed open the door, and walked in.
This is a small room of more than 10 square meters. It should have been used to store debris. Now, except for the floor, all are covered with mirrors, even on the ceiling.
The mirror magnifies this small space without limit, and Dong Zheng can see countless of himself, front, side, and back.
In the center of the floor, a circular pattern is painted, with a lot of words written by Dong Zheng that are incomprehensible.
What is this for?
Dong Zheng did not know.
He was about to turn around and leave. At this moment, he saw a man standing behind him in the mirror. He was taller than Dong Zheng, with dazzling red hair, but his face was not very clear.
"Allen?" Dong Zheng looked back immediately, but there was nothing behind him. Only in the mirror was the figure he hadn't seen in a long time.
Illusion?
Dong Zheng took a deep breath. He calmed down and asked the security bacteriophage in the kernel world to check for abnormal data. The result quickly came out. There were no exceptions. The firewall dutifully blocked everything that should not come in.
What would it be
Allen, like he did most often when he was still alive, put his arms on Dong Zheng's shoulders, Dong Zheng stared at the young man in the mirror, but he could no longer see his face anyway.
A figure appeared beside him. It was a young woman in her twenties. Her long hair was raised high, with an emerald bracelet on her wrist, and Emei thorn was hanging around her waist. She held Dong Zheng's arm intimately and quietly. Leaned his head on his shoulder.
Although she still couldn't see her face clearly, Dong Zheng was able to describe her appearance in her heart.
This is his birth mother, Liu Yueqian, who had a fate in his dream and had a hard time giving birth prematurely.
Dong Zheng took a deep breath, didn't move, he didn't have the heart to destroy the scene in the mirror, but he was not confused by these, Dong Zheng's fingers moved slightly, and Cui Zuojing was released from the prisoner space.
"What's wrong?" To Cui Zuojing, Dong Zheng had just stood in the mirror-filled room for a long time, staring at himself.
"Can you see anything?" Dong Zheng asked him.
Cui Zuojing also stood beside him, and the two people appeared in the mirror, but soon, Allen's figure appeared, and Henry also stood behind him, Yuan Yu, Lin Shuxi, Michelle... People who laughed with him and finally left forever appeared one by one.
Suddenly, Cui Zuojing has almost forgotten what they look like.
Cui Zuojing was silent for a moment and whispered: "I saw those who died."
Dong Zheng finally looked at his glasses and turned to leave the room.
"I don't know what method was used here to let people see what the dead are like."
"Is it an illusion?" Cui Zuojing is also nostalgic. He has always been a determined person, and indulging in false phantoms will only make people endless decadence.
"It should not be, there is no abnormal data in the kernel." Dong Zheng whispered, "This should be built by Ferdinand in order to see George. There should be a wizard in this house. I don't know how good he is. Again, it’s not just a rumor that George’s injustice is bad.”
Cui Zuojing returned to the prisoner's space. Dong Zheng closed the door of the mirror room and went on to the basement.
Just about to turn the corner, he suddenly heard someone talking and immediately hid to the other side of the cabinet.
As the voice approached, they could hear a man and a woman, and the voices of the two were very low. Dong Zheng enhanced his hearing so that he could barely hear some.
The man asked: "There seems to be something wrong with Master's body. Even if it is so, can I continue the ceremony?"
The woman’s voice was a bit old: “You have to believe me, since I can allow Mr. Ferdinand to see Master George, there is a way to get him back.”
The two walked through the window, and Dong Zheng glanced in a concealed glance, recognizing that the light was carrying Ferdinand's personal servant, and beside him, followed by a short woman in a purple robe, covered with a hood Face, but the voice is not young.
Do they want to resurrect George with witchcraft?
The two walked in a hurry in a hurry. Dong Zheng was far behind, all the way to the room where the basement entrance was located.
The manservant looked around cautiously to make sure that no one else was there, and went down with the wizard, maybe he would come up soon, or because of something else, he did not lock the door from inside.
Dong Zheng waited for a while and estimated that they had passed the stairs to the bottom before carefully pushing the door open and walking into the basement.
Dong Zheng walked down and found that there is no other cave underneath. The Ferdinand villa is very large, and the basement area is also not small. The temperature here is very low. There are strange witchcraft runes painted on the walls, and many corners are piled up. Many figurines, the ceiling is filled with purses filled with spices.
So many traces of "Witch" piled up together will only make people feel a sense of fear and suppression. The basement is full of excessive fragrance of spices. Dong Zheng can't hold his breath and can only suffer for a while.
But he seemed to smell an unusual smell.
The male servant and the wizard did not know where to go. Dong Zheng took the time to leave the stairwell. He walked along the most spacious corridor. According to the memory of the villa structure, the direction of this corridor should be him The mirror house I saw just now.
Bypassing a locked room, Dong Zheng finally heard the voice again. He was hidden in the dark, approaching silently in the direction of the sound, and pressed one hand on the bone-cutting knife around his waist.
The light of the lantern in the hand of the male servant also guided him. Dong Zheng hid behind the glove box covered with dust cloth and saw the figures of the two people from a distance.
They were standing next to a coffin, the lantern was placed on a small table beside them, everything around them was dressed like an altar, and the wizard was leaning over the coffin, as if checking something.
A few wires were connected to the coffin and plugged in.
"It's necessary to speed up." After a while, the wizard hoarsely said, "George's flesh can't hold on for too long."
Is the maid: "However, the police have been so strict recently, what should we do..."
"We have collected eight sacrifices, and we are the last one, so we can make a deal with the god of death." The wizard said, "The success or failure is here, Mr. Ferdinand has paid so much for all this, you don't want to Everything is destroyed, right?"
Eight sacrifices?Dong Zheng was shocked. Since George's death, there have been a total of five murders in Wisteria Town. The two are missing. If the person who died in the car accident is added... exactly eight dead.
The male servant was silent for a moment, and finally nodded, "Okay, I will try my best again, and bring the last offering tonight."
After talking about the two, they left. Dong Zheng watched the figure of the male servant and the wizard go away with the light. Soon afterwards, the sound of the lock of the basement door was faintly heard.
gone?
Dong Zheng came out of his hiding place, he walked up the steps to the coffin, and found that it was a freezer, with the body of a boy lying.
George died by swallowing a gun, and his appearance was definitely not good-looking, but the body was sorted, his face lying quietly inside, and it looked like a very cute child.
His left hand flew away, even if it was frozen, there were slight signs of decay at the fracture.
Probably the police returned George's body to Ferdinand after the autopsy.
The so-called sacrifice should be the left hand of the victim who flew away in these murders. Dong Zheng wondered whether the bag in this box did not contain the magical setting, even if the required "sacrificial offerings" were really collected, Can George really be brought back to life?
I'm afraid not.
Since it is a sacrifice, the left hands obtained from the corpse should now also be in the basement. The sachet is likely to be hung to cover up the rotten smell.
Dong Zheng temporarily left this place and went to other places to check. He was not in a hurry to go out. Since the male servant went to collect the last "sacrificial offering", he would definitely go to the basement tonight to put the offerings again. Just look for opportunities.
Most of the rooms are locked, Dong Zheng does not know the specific situation, but understands that it is not easy to deal with the victim’s body under the police’s eyelids, and it must be placed in some locked rooms, otherwise it will not hang so many sachets. Cover up the taste.
The basement is very large, and it may take some time to explore it all. Dong Zheng did not turn on the light in a cautious manner, groping forward in the dark.
Suddenly, he heard the sound of something falling over, especially in the silent basement.
Dong Zheng immediately found a place near the cat's waist to hide. He listened breathlessly for a long time, and there was no other movement.
Will it be a mouse?
he does not know.
Dong Zheng did not find any other anomalies after waiting for a while, and could only explore more alertly.
He found a gun in the corner with three bullets inside.
Dong Zheng silently took the gun in his hand.
