Chapter 785 Supplies
"Grandma, I'm lost. It's raining too hard outside. Can I stay here for one night?" Lin Xia tried to make her voice sound calm. The old lady was silent for a while, nodded slowly, and stepped aside to let her in. The house was filled with a pungent musty smell. The lights were dim, and the shadows on the wall were swaying, which looked particularly gloomy. The old lady pointed to a worn-out sofa in the corner, indicating that she could rest there, and then turned and walked into the inner room without saying a word. Lin Xia sat on the sofa, her heart was in turmoil. She looked around the room and found many old photos hanging on the wall. The people in the photos were wearing clothes from decades ago, with stiff expressions and empty eyes. Just as she was absorbed in the photos, a strange sound came from upstairs, as if someone was dragging something heavy. The "squeak-squeak-" sound was particularly clear in the silent house. Lin Xia's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and she stood up and looked in the direction of the stairs. The staircase was pitch black, as if it was a black hole that swallowed everything. She told herself not to let her imagination run wild, maybe it was just the sound of the items upstairs being blown by the wind. But curiosity still drove her, and she stepped carefully up the stairs, and with every step, the wooden boards would make a "creaking" groaning sound. Finally reaching the second floor, Lin Xia's palms were full of cold sweat. There was a half-closed door at the end of the corridor, and a faint light shone through the crack of the door. She held her breath and slowly approached the door. The moment she mustered up the courage to push open the door, the scene in front of her almost made her scream. The room was filled with jars of various sizes, and the mouths of the jars were covered with red cloth. It seemed that something was contained inside. In the center of the room, there was a black coffin, the lid of the coffin was half open, and it was empty inside. Lin Xia turned around and wanted to run away, but accidentally bumped into the jar behind her. The jar fell to the ground with a "bang", the red cloth spread out, and a skull rolled out from it, staring straight at her with its empty eye sockets. She couldn't hold it in any longer, and uttered a shrill scream, then turned and rushed down the stairs. Downstairs, the old lady had been standing there without knowing when, her face still expressionless. "You shouldn't have gone up there." The old lady's voice was hoarse and cold, as if it came from the depths of hell. Lin Xia wanted to run away from the old lady, but found that her legs were like lead, and she couldn't take a step. At this moment, there was a burst of hurried footsteps outside, and then the door was pushed open. A middle-aged man rushed in. When he saw Lin Xia, he was stunned at first, then frowned and asked the old lady: "Mom, what's going on?" The old lady pointed at Lin Xia and said, "A lost girl, come and stay for one night." The middle-aged man looked Lin Xia up and down, his eyes full of vigilance. Lin Xia seized this opportunity and quickly said: "Brother, I really just lost my way. Please let me stay here for one night. I will leave early tomorrow morning." The middle-aged man hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded. He took Lin Xia to another room and said, "You stay here tonight, don't run around." Lin Xia nodded repeatedly, rushed into the house, and immediately locked the door. Lying on the bed, Lin Xia couldn't fall asleep. She pricked up her ears and listened to the noise outside. In the middle of the night, she heard a strange noise coming from the yard, as if someone was talking in a low voice. She walked to the window quietly and looked out through the crack in the window. In the moonlight, she saw the old lady and the middle-aged man standing in the yard, and there were several dark shadows standing next to them. Those dark shadows were hunched and stiff, not like normal people. Lin Xia was so scared that she trembled all over. She realized that she might be in a terrible situation. She decided to escape in the night, carefully opened the door, and touched the direction of the yard. Just as she was about to approach the gate, a hand suddenly reached out from behind and covered her mouth. She struggled to look back and saw that it was a girl of her age. "Don't make a sound, follow me." The girl whispered, pulling her into a woodshed. The woodshed was full of debris. The girl looked outside vigilantly, and then said, "My name is Xiaoyun, and I am also trapped here. There is no one in this village for a long time, and these people... are not alive." Lin Xia looked at Xiaoyun in horror, her mouth wide open, but she couldn't say a word. Xiaoyun continued, "They have been looking for substitutes. As long as outsiders come in, they will not let them leave alive. We have to find a way to escape." The two discussed it and decided to escape from the path behind the mountain when the rain was a little lighter. They carefully avoided those "people" and moved towards the direction of the back mountain. The rain was still falling, the mountain road was slippery, and they stumbled forward. Just when they thought they were about to escape, a sinister laugh suddenly came from behind. The old lady, the middle-aged man, and those shadows had caught up with them at some point. Lin Xia and Xiaoyun ran desperately, but those "people" were getting closer and closer. At the critical moment, the sound of a police car siren was heard in the distance. It turned out that Lin Xia's family found that she had not returned for a long time and called the police. The police followed the clues and found this deserted village. The moment those "people" saw the police, they let out a shrill cry and turned into wisps of black smoke and disappeared. Lin Xia and Xiaoyun collapsed on the ground, tears and rain mixed together. They were finally saved, and this terrible rainy night will become an indelible nightmare for their whole lives. When the police car drove away from the deserted village, Lin Xia looked back and saw that the village gradually blurred in the rain and fog, as if it had never existed.
It was an old brick house, with moss all over the walls and a crumbling wooden door. She hesitated for a moment, but mustered up the courage to knock on the door. After a long time, the door creaked open, and an old lady with wrinkles on her face appeared at the door, staring at her with cloudy eyes, which made her feel uneasy.
Lu Chen set up the camera and focused on capturing the fusion of desserts and the sea view. Lin Xiaoman stood aside, looking at his serious profile, her heartbeat speeding up involuntarily. Suddenly, a wave came and wet the hem of Lin Xiaoman's skirt. She stepped back in fright and accidentally stepped on air. Lu Chen quickly grabbed her. The two were so close that they could clearly hear each other's heartbeats. "Be careful." Lu Chen's voice was unusually gentle. Lin Xiaoman nodded with a red face, and broke free from his hand in a panic. The project finally reached the final sprint stage. Lu Chen and Lin Xiaoman repeatedly polished every detail, striving for perfection.
