Stimulating,

Truly stimulating,

Like watching a "kaleidoscope" when I was a kid.

But now, these street performers who walk around beating a gong and drum, while also pulling strings to let customers peek through the cracks for a show, are becoming increasingly rare. Many born in the 90s may not have even seen them.

This time,

It was almost the same format,

But replaced with a chilling horror template.

One, two, three, four… seven!

After getting over the initial sensory stimulation, Lawyer An even had the leisure to count.

Seven women were locked inside, a little dirty on their bodies and faces, but all with delicate features, especially their eyes, which were bright and lively, and still smiling at him.

Very polite,

Even when facing a peeping tom,

They were actually as gentle as a spring breeze.

Indeed, Lawyer An was startled, but it would be unrealistic to expect him to jump up and start screaming "Ah, ah, ah, ah," after all, he was a man of the world and not so不堪.

Moreover, after the initial shock, things became much smoother.

Even,

Lawyer An responded with a smile,

Yes,

Everyone was very polite.

"What did you see?"

Zhou Ze asked from the side.

Lawyer An straightened up, twisted his neck, and handed the flashlight to Zhou Ze, signaling him to see for himself.

Zhou Ze didn't refuse, bent down, put his eyes to the small hole, turned on the flashlight, and shone it inside.

Hiss…

Zhou Ze sucked in a cold breath.

From his perspective,

There were seven women,

Facing him directly.

But unlike the neat smiles they gave Lawyer An earlier,

At this moment,

In Zhou Ze's view,

These seven women were acting like fools,

One woman was holding a rag doll in her arms,

One woman's neck was tilted and drool was dripping down,

One woman was looking up, grinning foolishly,

One woman was趴on the ground, facing Zhou Ze, "Heh heh heh,"

One was supporting herself against the wall while doing a handstand,

Each with a different look,

But all were looking at Zhou Ze.

Very neat,

And indeed very neat,

Because the women in the room were all holding the same pose, without moving,

Like school students taking a graduation photo.

But the foolish expressions in this graduation photo,

Instead, brought an even deeper level of terror!

Zhou Ze stood up and looked at Lawyer An.

"How was it? Pretty beautiful, right?"

Lawyer An said.

"…" Zhou Ze.

Have your tastes gotten so extreme now?

"They look like survivors," Lawyer An guessed.

"I think they look more like victims," Zhou Ze retorted.

Because they saw different things, they naturally came to different conclusions.

"Victims?" Lawyer An was taken aback, "That's not right…"

Compared to the current hanging ghost appearances of the others in the village,

The women in this small house were only a little dirty, but their minds should still be relatively clear.

"A group of women locked in a house, they all look like women who were abducted and driven mad."

Zhou Ze said.

"Driven mad?"

Lawyer An was completely confused.

"Yeah, I've seen a lot of reports before, even if these abducted women have been tortured to the point of madness, they will still be locked up, and even forced to accept prostitution, and even continue to help give birth to children to carry on the family line."

"Wait a minute, Boss."

Lawyer An interrupted Zhou Ze, the more he listened, the more wrong it sounded. He took the flashlight from Zhou Ze and bent down again, looking through the small hole.

"Buzz!"

A tremor came,

Lawyer An immediately sidestepped,

A beam of blue light pierced out from the small hole.

Lawyer An was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat,

Just a little bit more,

And his eyes would have been gone.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

The door of the small house began to be violently battered,

The lock was also shaking non-stop, as if it could break at any moment.

"Let us out!"

"Let us out!"

"Let us out, ahhhhh!!!"

"Please, let me go, let me go, let me go!!!"

Waves of crying and begging came from the small house,

The women inside were screaming hysterically.

Lawyer An frowned and stood up, subconsciously reaching out to touch the lock.

However, his hand stopped, and he looked at Zhou Ze beside him.

"Open the door or not, Boss?"

When it was time to take the blame, he naturally thought of his leader.

"It's meaningless not to open it." Zhou Ze looked at Lawyer An, "Do you think a copper lock can really stop them?"

As he said that,

Zhou Ze personally stepped forward,

And snapped the copper lock with his fingernails.

"Bang!"

After the copper lock broke,

The door collapsed directly.

Seven beams of blue light roared out from inside, surrounding Zhou Ze and the others.

Seven women with distorted faces looked at the two men. In these women's eyes, there was only deep hatred. Only those who had been tortured for a long time could accumulate such terrifying hatred in their hearts.

Zhou Ze spread his hands, indicating that he had no malice, and at the same time threw the copper lock he had just broken on the ground.

After a short while,

The seven figures began to turn around and gradually drifted away, without attacking Zhou Ze and the others.

"Dead?"

Lawyer An seemed to have thought of something, and immediately got up and entered the small house.

The small house smelled terrible,

That was the effect of accumulated excrement.

And in the house, there was also a woman's corpse lying there, it should have only died recently.

But seven women had come out of the house earlier, but there was only one corpse.

Were these the women who had been locked up here before as well?

Because they had been imprisoned here for a long time, even after they died, their obsessions and resentment lingered here, unable to leave?

"If we hadn't opened the lock just now, would their hatred have been transferred to us?" Lawyer An looked at Zhou Ze beside him.

"Probably, half of the reason why this village became like this is because of this strange fog, and the other half should be from their revenge.

They should be the pitiful women who were abducted into this village over the years, some of whom may have already passed away.

But taking advantage of this opportunity, their spirits were able to return, and in the guise of avengers, they slaughtered everyone in this village.

And it was,

Leaving no one alive."

Zhou Ze reached into his pocket and took out two cigarettes, handing one to Lawyer An.

"We are outsiders, they wanted to kill us, but the premise is that there must be a cause and effect.

If we are willing to open the lock to save them, this cause and effect will not fall on us. If we are not willing, it is like watching them die without helping, and they will naturally hate us."

"Boss, I didn't think of it that quickly."

Lawyer An smiled, lit his cigarette, and was a little surprised that Zhou Ze's judgment was actually earlier and more accurate than his own, who had more experience.

"Because of Zhu Shengnan's matter some time ago, I've been thinking about the way these kinds of people, or ghosts, think."

Zhou Ze shrugged his shoulders, raised his head,

This fog,

Why hasn't it dissipated yet?

Zhou Ze had no sympathy for this village that was harmed by vengeful ghosts.

Not just one abducted woman,

He had seen two before, and seven more just now.

So many pitiful abducted girls, is it possible that most of the people in this village were unaware?

Perhaps,

If there wasn't this fog, if there wasn't this strange environment,

Many pitiful women's tears would have been shed in vain.

Because of this fog,

Revenge,

Became very straightforward and satisfying.

You reap what you sow.

It can only be said that an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth.

Zhou Ze felt that even if he knew about this in advance and called Zhang Yanfeng to notify the police, this matter wouldn't have been handled so quickly and perfectly.

Oh no,

The matter wouldn't have fallen to such a残卷人寰 state.

Regarding this kind of vengeful ghost's behavior,

Boss Zhou would still maintain a condemning attitude in terms of emotions and attitude.

After all, punishment outside the law is not desirable.

It's a pity,

This didn't happen in Tong City,

It's a pity,

That he was so many steps too late,

And couldn't make it in time to stop and save the villagers here.

In his heart,

He was really a bit愧疚and uneasy.

Of course,

Boss Zhou was a relatively open-minded person,

Lawyer An was even an official who had been "双规",

It was too difficult to ask these two men to have that kind of "acting on behalf of Heaven" sense of justice and put it into action.

For the time being, he didn't plan to leave. Anyway, they couldn't get out, and these women wouldn't attack them anymore. Zhou Ze and Lawyer An simply found a family and used their earthen stove to stir-fry a few dishes.

Because they were brothers in misfortune and stranded outsiders,

Boss Zhou generously took out the Bianhua oral liquid and shared it with Lawyer An.

The two of them had a drink, a dish, and it was quite tasty.

When it got to be evening, the people who were tired from "playing" outside all returned to their homes and silently "hung" themselves up, returning to the form of hanging corpses.

Zhou Ze盛a few bowls of rice, stuck chopsticks in them, and placed them in the rooms where they were hanging, as a form of offering.

It wasn't out of pity or wanting to mourn them,

It was purely because he had eaten their food, so he followed along and did it as a gesture.

After a full meal, occasionally he could see women's resentful eyes flashing by the window and the door,

Zhou Ze and Lawyer An were used to it.

At first, they were a little nervous,

But slowly, seeing that they were just coming to take a look and weren't launching an attack, they naturally didn't care.

Men,

Wouldn't lose a piece of meat from being looked at a couple of times.

It was just that,

The problem of food could be solved with Bianhua oral liquid,

But how to solve the problem of sleeping?

Zhou Ze and Lawyer An, two grown men hugging each other, couldn't serve as half a Bai Yingying.

Sitting in a靠chair,

Zhou Ze suddenly missed Yingying,

The kind of missing her very, very much.

He didn't know if Yingying had encountered any danger in this fog,

She should be fine.

As for the old Daoist,

Zhou Ze seemed to have forgotten that the old Daoist had come out with them too.

Lawyer An searched from house to house again and found a few mobile phones, but the mobile phones had no signal and couldn't be used at all, unless they played the single-player games on the phone.

"Give up, have you ever seen a ghost movie where mobile phones can be used normally?"

Zhou Ze consoled.

Lawyer An nodded and walked to the door. Even though it was night, the fog still hadn't dissipated.

But then,

There was suddenly a "啪" crisp sound from outside,

Very harsh,

Like it was shaking the entire village.

It was the sound of a whip!

"The Netherworld is in order,

The dead are on their way!!!!!!"

A melodious, high-pitched shout came.

Zhou Ze and Lawyer An quickly exchanged a look,

And saw a touch of shock in each other's eyes,

Damn it,

In this village with no living people under the strange fog,

There were actually ghost messengers?

"What exactly is going on?" Zhou Ze got up and walked to the door.

At this time, Zhou Ze saw that the several members of this family had actually abandoned the "hanging" pose and walked out of the room. People who had hanged themselves in the opposite and neighboring houses also came out. Everyone walked unsteadily on the road in orderly ranks, walking towards the entrance of the village.

"啪!"

There was another cracking sound of a whip,

"The Netherworld is in order, the dead are on their way!!!"

"Same unit, wanna go say hello?"

Zhou Ze asked Lawyer An, but he didn't move.

"Yeah, maybe the other party will see that we are in the same unit and will even give us a few heads as performance points. By the way, find a car and send us out of the mountains?

If we're even more enthusiastic, they might invite us to a meal and send us some local specialties.

You have to know, the ghost messengers in our Netherworld are the most enthusiastic and hospitable."

Lawyer An echoed, but he didn't move either.

Everyone knew one thing,

That in this entire village shrouded in fog where everyone had died,

There could actually be guiding ghost messengers appearing.

How incredible was that,

Oh no,

How dedicated was that!
