I Wasn’t Born Lucky

Chapter 96:

Xiao Li stood by the well, glanced at the ghost at the bottom of the well, put his hands on the side of the well, and peeped his head toward the bottom of the well and asked, "Excuse me, where is the way out?"

His voice echoed at the bottom of the well, but there was no response.

Xiao Li retracted his head, glanced thoughtfully into the distance, and changed his questioning method: "Or should I ask, how can I get out?"

The ghost of the well was lying at the bottom of the dry well. Its hair fell loose. It couldn't see the specific expression. He could only hear a negative test. The residual sound was enough to surround Liang's voice for three days and said: "Sherlock..."

Xiao Li: "Tsk, it's endless, right?"

Jing Gui's next sentence was not to continue its call, but a whisper like prophecy: "You can't get out..."

Xiao Li smiled: "Oh? What if I go out? You go with me and pay me yourself?"

As soon as he finished saying this, he rejected his idea: "Forget it, you have to live in a well, it is not easy to raise."

Despised Jinggui: "..."

Have you eaten your rice?

Xiao Li stood up and stretched his arms: "Then make a discussion and let us go out of you? Look at the place where you live, the scenery is beautiful, and you don't need to deliberately trap us here."

Jing Gui didn't speak. It lay on the bottom of the well, maintaining that posture without moving, and squeezed an irritating sob from its throat.

Xiao Li said guiltily, "You are a ghost, you shouldn't have broken bones... right?"

Jing Gui slowly lifted his upper body-I don't know if it was Xiao Li's illusion, he seemed to hear the sound of bones breaking inch by inch-he reached out to the top of his head and slowly said: "You can leave here anytime, but I will always be with you."

Xiao Li nodded, he once again said "goodbye" to Jinggui, got up and stepped on the bridge, and walked into the distance.

Zhou Ying didn't leave immediately, it kept following Xiao Li watching the ghost well.After Xiao Li left, the children bent down to pick up the pebbles that had fallen aside and threw them into the bottom of the well.

Jing Gui stared at the pebbles in front of him, his long hair separated from his scalp, revealing those horrible eyes, which looked at Zhou Ying.

Zhou Ying made a face at it and jumped back to Xiao Li's side.

"Ah----" A grieving roar came from the dry well, and Brother Hao was so scared that he immediately grabbed Xiao Li and dragged him to the opposite direction of the bridge.

This time, the hazy mist in the haunted house gradually receded, and they walked out of the shadow of Jinggui.

Brother Hao finally stopped, and stopped in place with Xiao Li, panting.

He didn't see what Zhou Ying was doing. At that time, he and Xiao Li had already turned and left. He intermittently said, "What happened to the well and the bottom of the well?"

Xiao Li knocked Zhou Ying's forehead with his knuckles, and then said to Brother Hao: "I don't know, maybe I saw the fresh food reserves slip away, so I'm not reconciled."

Speaking of the three words "reserve food", Brother Hao remembered the meat of the "House of Ghosts" again. He didn't want to really become food for these ghosts: "Then let's go quickly and leave this haunted house earlier."

They raised their feet and walked forward. The doll and Zhou Ying followed Xiao Li, looking at everything curiously.

Leaving from the dry well, the road in front of the haunted house was shrouded in darkness again.

There are no lights in the haunted house, and it is only illuminated by candles crossed on the wall. The white cloth in the blocking area at the intersection floats with the gloomy wind, obstructing their vision.

The ceiling here is so high that when the reincarnations raise their heads, they will have the illusion that they are in the open air.

The air was full of water vapor, almost reaching the illusion of condensing into water droplets.

When he passed a door again, Brother Hao aggravated his steps a little irritably. He took the phone out of his pocket and wanted to check the time on it, only to find that the phone had turned off automatically.

He tried to press the button to restart, but it still couldn't start. I don't know if it broke when he was running before, Brother Hao cursed in a low voice.

Xiao Li originally walked in front of him. He only heard what Brother Hao said, but he didn't hear clearly, so he turned his head and said, "Did you talk just now?"

When he turned his head back, the doll sitting on his shoulder also followed him to look at Brother Hao.

Those unsentimental ghost eyes made Brother Hao step back immediately: "The phone is dead, I sigh."

Xiao Li responded and walked forward again.

Brother Hao was silent for a while, but finally couldn't help but said to him: "We don't know how long we have been walking in this haunted house. I suspect it's been an hour and we haven't walked out yet. Where will this exit be?"

"98 minutes." Xiao Li corrected Brother Hao's words.

"what?"

"I remember, we have been in for 98 minutes, just now, 99 minutes." Xiao Li moved the flashlight away from the ribbon falling above his head and said in a calm tone.

Brother Hao was stunned: "It's been so long... Now, does this haunted house really have an exit?!"

"There is or there is," Xiao Li said, "but it is estimated that it will not exist in a conventional form."

"You mean, the exit of the haunted house... won't let us see it?" Brother Hao followed Xiao Li's thoughts and gave full play to his whimsical ideas, "Will it be in that well? What? Actually that well is the real exit, but in order to mislead us, the ghost house arranges the well ghost inside?"

Xiao Li: "...Then I don't mind if you go back and try it. If it is, you will go out successfully. If it is not, you will stay with Jinggui."

Brother Hao knew that he had guessed wrong when he heard his tone. He said haha, "If not, what would it be?"

"I don't know." Xiao Li said plainly, "Look again."

Brother Hao's original guess was choked back by Xiao Li's words. He felt his physical strength and vigilance go by in one minute and one second, but he had no choice but to continue walking forward.

There is a wooden door at the corner through the long corridor they are walking on.

The wooden door is obviously very old, with cracks in it, and the sound of water flowing from the inside of the wooden door.

Xiao Li walked to the wooden door. He pursed his lips and knocked on the door first.

Brother Hao said weakly: "Sherlock, what is your gentleman's strength at this time, even if there is a ghost inside, it won't return you when you knock on the door."

Just as Brother Hao's voice just fell, there was some slight movement from the wooden door, it seemed that someone snorted and then hit the ground.

Brother Hao: "..."

Xiao Li felt that the humming sound seemed familiar, so he pushed open the wooden door and walked inside.

The world in the wooden door is the same as the dry well, a world of its own.

What Xiao Li felt first was the sound of gurgling water and the sudden rise of water vapor in the air.

——The water vapor here is different from that of the dry well. The temperature here is higher and the water source is wider. It sounds like it’s close at hand.

He walked around the bushes and bushes, walked along the passage in the rockery, pushed aside the clouds and saw a quaint building.

The building resembles an old Japanese inn, about two stories high, with a small attic with a triangular shape above it.And there was a sign at the window that read: Hot Spring Hotel.

The sign was very shabby, and the doors and windows of the hotel were also stuck with cobwebs, obviously no one lived.

In front of this hot spring hotel, there is a hot spring.

The water is alive and warm, clear to the bottom, but is covered by the mist from the air due to the temperature difference.

But what can be seen is that a woman is bathing in the hot spring.

The woman showed only one head, and she has a soft short hair.The end had been wetted by the water mist and stuck to her neck.

She originally turned her back to the reincarnations, but when she heard the noise, she turned her head unexpectedly, and exclaimed at Xiao Li, "Ah, who are you?"

This hot spring woman has a beautiful face, she can almost be a star directly, with beautiful features and bright red lips.

Xiao Li didn't answer her right away. He glanced around first, looking for the muffled sound that made him feel familiar. Finally, in a flower bush behind the rockery, he found the figure, it was Zou Hanyi.

Zou Hanyi was pale, lying in the grass, reluctantly took out a prop pill from his cuff and stuffed it into his mouth.

Brother Hao rushed over and helped her up: "Miss Zou, is this?"

Zou Hanyi obviously came earlier than them, and became like this again. Could it be that hot spring beauty did it?

"No, don't look at her," Zou Hanyi coughed and said, she was heavy enough in that fall. "I...I just had no way ahead, so I could only come in here. At first, she was like this with me. communicate with."

"But then, she invited me in and soaked in the hot springs with her. Of course I couldn't agree, but as I communicated with her, I felt gradually unable to control my limbs, like someone pushing me behind me, trying to push me forward. spa."

"Fortunately, I brought some props with me. Although I used it once, it would transfer a wound on me, but it still avoided the bad luck of entering the water."

She spoke very quickly of what happened after she came in.

Xiao Li pondered for a moment, looked at the woman bathing in the hot spring, and guessed, could this be a drowning girl?

The drowning girl is a ghost in ancient legends, and she is in the same line as the gaping girl. According to legend, she often haunts the hot springs of hot spring hotels and invites others to bathe with her. Once others enter the hot springs, she will reveal a body full of skeletons. Turn that person into a bunch of skeletons.

"Did you come here to play?" The drowning girl in the hot spring was unaware of the hostility of the reincarnations. She raised a smile and kindly invited them, "Would you like to take a hot spring together? The water temperature in this hotel is very comfortable, I like it very much and you will like it too."

Brother Hao helped Zou Hanyi, he looked back at the wooden door where they came, and tried to leave from there, but to his disappointment the wooden door had disappeared and turned into a wall.

"Come down," said the drowning girl, "I will make you unaware of the pain."
