Chapter 509 Four Doors
The winter morning was wrapped in mist, and the pine forests in the distant mountains seemed to be covered with a layer of white gauze. Under the gaze of Bai Huang, Gao Ming opened the door of the manor.
The heavy wooden door slowly opened, and Bai Huang, whose clothes were soaked, entered the house. There was mud on her sleeves, and obvious scratches could be seen on her fingers.
"Are you injured?" Gao Ming smelled a faint smell of blood on Bai Huang.
"This happens to be proof that I am alive." Bai Huang's eyes were cold. She had not taken in any water after entering the nightmare, and she seemed to have lost a lot of weight in just one night.
The thick boots stepped on the wooden stairs, and the creaking sound seemed to be louder than yesterday. The owner of the house ran up to Bai Huang with a shotgun, pointing the gun at Bai Huang's forehead: "It's freezing cold, and there's a blizzard." Mountains, almost no one can spend a whole night in the wild, where did you hide last night?”
Gao Ming noticed the words used by the owner of the house. He did not ask where Bai Huang had gone, but where he was hiding.
"How do you know that no one can survive a night outside? Have you ever abandoned many people outside before? And then went to find their bones the next day?" Bai Huang was pointed at a gun and still spoke very forcefully. This made everyone around her sweat for her.
"Do you think I don't dare to shoot?" The man's fingers slowly pressed down. Gao Ming and Xu Deyi did not dare to step forward to stop them, for fear of accidentally touching each other and causing a fire.
"The hut where dry firewood is piled next to the manor, I spent the night there last night." Contrary to everyone's expectations, Bai Huang had no intention of continuing to provoke the owner of the house and answered the question decisively. Her previous behavior was more like testing something.
"Why didn't you come home all night?"
"I went to East Lake." The frostbite on Bai Huang's face was bleeding, but she seemed not to feel the pain, and even showed a smile: "I saw fish under the ice, such big fish."
The owner of the house's hand holding the gun trembled obviously, and he slowly moved the shotgun away: "There is frostbite medicine in room 3009. I will help you treat the wound."
Without giving others a chance to speak, the man grabbed Bai Huang's arm and walked towards the stairs. At the same time, he shouted to Gao Ming and Xu Deyi: "Something strange sneaked into the manor last night. We We must find it before dark, otherwise everyone may not survive the night.”
The two disappeared into the corridor. After a while, the door of Room 2004 was opened. Qian Jin walked out with an ax in hand very cautiously. After making sure that there was no danger around, he waved behind him. Rao Rao and Duan Hou Zhi Ge walked out one after another.
"You three are really capable of being shy. A lot of big things happened in the manor last night, but you actually stayed in your room and waited until dawn before coming out." Seeing the three-person team, Xu Deyi became angry. Last night he was beaten by the climbers. He was frightened out of his wits, and was later forced by the owner to get the tool box. He was really scared and thought about asking for help from a three-person team. As a result, he knocked on the door of Room 2004 for five minutes, but there was no sound from inside.
"Were you really knocking on the door last night?" Qian Jin looked at Xu Deyi in surprise: "We thought it was a ghost pretending to be a ghost, so we didn't open the door."
"The owner of the house has said not to open the door and not to walk around casually. Before you are ready to destroy the nightmare, abiding by the rules can help you live longer." Rao Rao's mouth was still sharp and harsh: "Why don't you say that newcomers are prone to bad things."
Xu De clenched his fists in shock, but when he thought about it carefully, it was indeed because the fool opened the curtains last night and violated the rules that they saw the body of the climber outside the window.
"Don't fight internally." He patted Xu Deyi on the shoulder, and Gao Ming stood in front of the three-person team: "Follow the house owner's rules, and you will only get deeper into trouble. If we hadn't discovered it early last night, those corpses would have I have already crawled into the manor through the gap in room 2001."
"I just heard from the owner of the house that something dangerous has been mixed into the manor. If you work so hard, won't the final result be that dangerous things enter the manor?" Rao Rao put his hands on the fence and leaned forward: "Middle-level nightmare The inevitable trend of development is that the safe zone continues to shrink, which is the process of the dream owner's psychological defenses collapsing, unless you have the ability to heal his or her spiritual trauma. "
If you want to heal the trauma, you must first figure out the crux of the problem, but Gao Ming and the others haven't even found the real owner of the dream yet.
"Psychological trauma often accumulates bad emotions." When Gao Ming went to the kitchen last night, he saw four special keys hidden in the arms of the owner of the house, with pain, sorrow, resentment, and hatred written on them respectively. Among them, "pain" The key opened the cellar door: "Each key should correspond to a door in the manor. What is hidden behind the door is attracting the snowman. Maybe it is the body and memory of the nightmare owner."
Thinking of this, Gao Ming immediately set off to enter the kitchen. Seeing that Gao Ming seemed to have discovered something, the three-person team also followed.
Lifting the dirty blanket on the ground, Gao Ming stared at the cover of the cellar entrance. The thick wooden boards were stacked together and embedded into the ground tightly.
"We don't have the right tools, so it's difficult to open it. If we use an ax to chop it, it will definitely attract the owner of the house." Xu Deyi also noticed the strange keyhole on the cellar door, which seemed to be a large A blood scab that clots on the skin.
"We have seen similar doors in other places in the manor." Qian Jin came over with a smile: "Will you cooperate? You tell me what is hidden in the door, and I will take you to find other doors."
"The snowman entered the manor last night. When the owner found out that the snowman had been here, he was very nervous and opened the cellar with a key engraved with the word 'pain'."
"Did you see the scene in the cellar?" Zhi Ge pushed Xu Deyi aside and squeezed in front of Gao Ming: "Did you see the way?"
"The way?"
Zhi Ge was a little anxious, and he exuded a strong aura that was completely different from before, like a helmsman of a big ship that had passed through a storm: "The way to leave the nightmare of the middle level is hidden behind the exit. The so-called exit may be a window, or it may be a mirror and a wardrobe, but most of the exits are "doors", which are formed according to people's subconsciousness."
"Except for the fourth floor, we couldn't get through yesterday. We found a total of three doors in the manor that couldn't be opened." Qian Jin stepped on the wooden door: "The door of the cellar is only one of them. The other two doors are in the hut behind the woodshed and room 3009."
Ignoring Rao Rao's obstruction, Qian Jin really wanted to cooperate with Gao Ming.
"The owner of the house entered the cellar with a lamp last night. He was very alert to me and didn't let me get close. But I saw that he had four keys, so there is still a door in this manor that you haven't found." After Gao Ming said it truthfully, he called the fool and Xu De and ran out of the manor.
The sky was covered with heavy snow, which was ankle-deep. The yard was very cold, and the whole world seemed to be frozen.
The words on the road sign were not very clear. Gao Ming came to the back of the woodshed based on his impression. There was indeed a gray brick house here.
It was old and solid, with no windows and the walls were particularly thick.
Patting the hard wall, Gao Ming was very puzzled: "There is no flue or window. Such a thick wall is definitely not for warmth. Is it for sound insulation?"
The door of the brick house was built on the side. It was a big red iron door. There was originally an inverted blessing on the center of the door, but it was wet by rain and snow and most of it fell off. Only a few small mouth characters could be seen piled together, which made people feel a little uncomfortable.
