How to Build a Haunted House

"Of course, it's up to you to say it." Shen's father was so frightened that he lost his image, and he was holding his breath in his heart.

He stomped heavily on the corridor, passing through several dark rooms with half-closed doors, and walked towards the last conference room with lights on, and pushed open the door——

"Shen Yan!"

The voice contained the anger of being frightened all the way, and it was extraordinarily loud, and it echoed several times in the small conference room.

However, unexpectedly, there were no Chu Ci and Shen Yan waiting for them in the conference room. There was only an empty floor, a slightly pale fluorescent lamp, and a projection screen that occupied half of the wall in the front.

The worn-out film was spinning, and the content in the projector was printed on the screen.The light was blurry, and an intermittent nursery rhyme sounded from my ears——

"My sister is carrying a doll on her back... squeak... walked to the garden to see the cherry blossoms... squeak..."

On the screen, several pale children with strange smiles stretched out their hands to put the shoulders of the person in front of them, circling around, as if they were playing some interesting game.

"The baby cried and called her mother..."

"The little bird on the tree laughs haha..."

They clapped and sang.

Father Shen couldn't bear to look at these things at all, and reached out his hand to touch left and right in the room, trying to find some traces of playing tricks.

Unexpectedly, Shen's mother screamed suddenly.

"what happened again?"

"You, you, you..." Pointing at the projection screen, Shen's mother's fingers trembled, and her voice was overly frightened and nervous, "At the beginning, there were obviously 8 children here, why did it become 7 now? ?”

"Seven is seven, what does it matter if one is missing? Halfway through the game, why don't you suddenly go out?"

"The problem is they keep going in circles and never stop?"

Father Shen finally realized the weirdness in this passage, he turned his head slowly, and his eyes met the children who were circling around. The boy in the lead suddenly turned his head, his eyes were dark, and he showed him a malicious smile.

"Mom said I was disobedient, she peeled off my skin and made it into a doll..." he sang to Father Shen.

"The little bird on the tree laughs haha, the little bird on the tree laughs haha..."

Father Shen's scalp was numb, and the moment he was stared at, his hair stood on end.He pulled Shen's mother back two steps slowly, trying to exit the projection room, but suddenly something caught him under his feet.

"Dad picked up the ax and went to Mom, and slashed hard a lot."

"Mom's head rolled down to the bottom of the tree, her eyes are still looking at me..."

The five phalanxes grasped on the wrist slowly tightened, and they were bony, like a skeleton without flesh.

"Ah!" Mother Shen pointed at the projection screen and screamed frantically.

I saw the children playing happily in the video seem to have received some signal and looked into the meeting room at the same time.Standing at the end of the line, the thinnest boy turned his head 180 degrees, and they all tilted their heads, showing weird smiles.

"Why, Mom and Dad? Why are Mom and Dad?"

The children's voices of different heights converged into an ocean, drilled into the ears, and the singing voice flowed through every bone and poured into the chest cavity, bringing overwhelming depression, as if even the heart was clenched.

"Bang, bang, bang."

Heavy panting and drum-like heartbeat hit the eardrums.

"Come on!"

Father Shen pushed open the door, struggled to free the hand on his ankle, and tried his best not to think about what it was.

However, the baby's palm-sized five fingers were slender but powerful, and they yanked downwards, causing Shen's father to fall face down with a stagger. Even Shen's mother behind him was not spared, and she was brought down to the ground with a scream .

A shrill and innocent voice that belonged to a child sounded in their ears.

"Mom and Dad, are you looking for me?"

"Why are you running away in such a hurry?"

"crunch-"

Father Shen heard the sound of his cervical spine, like a bearing that was not oiled.

He lowered his head stiffly, facing a pair of eyes made of glass beads in the crack of the floor, peering at himself.

It let go of Shen's father's hand, broke open the hardwood floor with its small hands made of leather, and slowly crawled out from inside.

One step at a time, the joints were "creaking, creaking", and the facial features drawn with marker pens were clumsily and ridiculously facing Shen's father and Shen's mother. At the position of the mouth, a scrawled red check mark opened, and he tilted his head and said: "Mom, I'm your baby."

"..."

After contacting the nursery rhyme just now, Father Shen finally knew where the child disappeared in the video, but he would rather not know.

"No, no...don't come here," he used both hands and feet, waving his arms wildly: "don't come here, I'm not your father!"

The doll sighed, looked at the two adults with a "really ignorant" look, stretched out his little hand, and pulled his hair.The eyes made of glass beads are very close, almost touching Father Shen's face, allowing him to see the twisted and convulsed face on the glass surface.

"You say you are not my father, so whose father are you?"

"I am..." Father Shen opened his mouth.

"He must miss you very much. Let me make you into a doll by skinning and bleeding, so you can be together forever."

"No! No!"

Father Shen's breakdown reached its peak when he saw the doll really take out a sharp knife from the small schoolbag on his back. He desperately wanted to escape, but accidentally touched the fireplace with his elbow and knocked over a vase on it. .

With a "click", the vase fell to pieces on the floor.

I saw pairs of glass bead eyes emerging from the broken fragments, as if peeping into the world from the ground.The densely packed little hands grasped the edge of the crack and crawled out with all their might.

"dad."

"Mother."

"Don't leave us again."

"Stay, stay forever..."

·

When Chu Ci pulled Shen Yan to find Shen's father and Shen's mother, they were lying on the ground crying bitterly.

"Woooooo, we were wrong, Mom and Dad were wrong."

"Leave us alone."

"What's wrong?" Chu Ci stretched out his hand to pick up a doll, squeezed his little hand, and then squeezed his face.

The shark-like sharp teeth were retracted, and the razor-like claws were retracted. The vicious expression on the doll's face melted and disappeared like ice and snow in the sun. Grapes, the strength is lovely.

However, Father Shen, who was terrified enough, didn't dare to think that way anymore, he felt ashamed, got up from the ground, glanced at Chu Ci out of the corner of his eye, and retracted as if scalded by a red-hot iron.

Such a ferocious infant spirit is like a doll in the hands of the young man in front of him, what does this mean?

——Youth will only become more fierce, maybe it is some kind of man-eating ghost.

Shen Yan walked behind Chu Ci, half of his body was covered by shadows, blending with the shadow of the wall, it was easy to be ignored at first glance.

"Dirty." Shen Yan reached out and took the Gumantong who was pinched by Chu Ci, shook it in the air, and placed it on the fireplace.

Gumantong pursed his mouth, not daring to resist, swaying his two calves, sizing him up with black eyes, then turned to Father Shen, and let out a "hee hee" laugh.

"You are..." Father Shen finally noticed his son whom he hadn't seen for many years.

Shen's mother's family background is good, he was able to marry such a woman back then, thanks to her pretty face, and Shen Yan's appearance is almost a copy of Shen's father when he was young, but he has more aloof and mysterious temperament that he doesn't have.

"Tired?" Father Shen called out.

"Dad, Mom." Shen Yan stepped out of the shadows.

Only then did Father Shen realize that he was still lying on the ground.Seeing the disgraceful side by his own son, he propped himself up on the ground with his hands in embarrassment, and when he looked up, he saw Chu Ci reaching out to play with the Gumantong on the fireplace.

Under his hands, the aggressive doll looked like it was made of cotton. Seeing Shen's father looking over, he blinked, curled his lips, and reached out to show his heart.

"you are?"

"This is Chu Ci." Shen Yan said.

Shen's father can still hold back, but Shen's mother, who has been pampered behind him for many years, can no longer bear the previous humiliation, she took a deep breath, stomped her foot and said: "I knew that the previous thing was arranged by you."

"Shen Yan, what do you mean? Are you just watching outsiders bullying your parents?"

"So what do you want?" Shen Yan was polite, most of his face was sunk in the darkness and he couldn't see clearly.

"I..." Shen Mu was speechless.

At this moment, Father Shen gently poked her arm and made a "nine".

Shen's mother suddenly remembered her reason for coming, she said: "I want...I want you to dismantle these dolls, send us out, and then let you...Chuci give us the "Nine Cauldrons Jue"!"

Chu Ci laughed immediately.

In fact, what Shen's mother expected was right, today's event was really specially arranged for the two of them, with the purpose of venting anger for brother Tianqing.

"Unfortunately……"

It's a pity that Shen's father and Shen's mother are stubborn, or in other words, they owe Shen Yan too much, and they have automatically built a thick wall in their hearts, turning their guilt into dissatisfaction and resentment.

After all, in the hearts of some parents in Huaguo, children are their private property. No matter how parents treat their children, they should take it for granted. Children must fully accept and be grateful, otherwise it is unfilial.

"Okay." Chu Ci said, "I'll give it to you."

"only……"

What happens after that is up to you to decide.

Shen's father and Shen's mother didn't have the patience to listen to him finish his words, ignoring the hidden anxiety in their hearts, they kept urging: "Where's the secret book?"

"Here." Pointing to the temple, Chu Ci said: "Come here, come to this room, and I will write silently for you to read."

……

Before entering the room with the couple, he turned his head to look at Shen Yan.

Shen Yan stood alone on the spot, the sunlight came from one side of the window, casting the shadow of the wall on his face, the light and dark were distinct, forming a cold dividing line.

Lowering his head, Chu Ci saw the Ghost King standing behind Shen Yan, like a black shadow, their heels were connected, and they were integrated from the knee down.

"Come on." He smiled and pulled the two into the room.

"It'll be all right."

·

Paper and pens were already prepared in the room, and Chu Ci sat behind a table and began to write silently.

For a moment, the only sound in the air was the brushing of the pen tip touching the paper.

Father Shen was a little embarrassed, he turned his head to look at Shen Yan, and wanted to say something, but he didn't see each other for nearly 20 years, so he didn't know what to say.

Mother Shen lowered her head and stared at the handwriting written by Chu Ci, before the ink was dry, she hurriedly stuffed another piece of paper to him: "Hurry up."

Shen Yan frowned.

Father Shen: "Don't blame your mother, we... were also threatened."

"I know."

Shen's father moved his lips, wanting to tell him about the black shadow, but he thought that Shen Yan himself had provoked that ghost, but it had implicated himself and his wife who had been living a dutiful life. mouthed.

The brush turned the paper over, and after about 10 minutes, Chu Ci put down his pen.

"It's done!"

Shen's mother immediately took a large stack of manuscripts from the desk, aligned them, and checked them carefully.

However, it was full of incomprehensible words such as "three flowers gather at the top", "born a baby", "return to the original", so she asked, "Are you sure there are no mistakes?"

"Of course," Chu Ci said, "It took me a lot of effort, how could there be any mistakes?"

Shen's mother automatically interpreted "it took a lot of effort" to mean that Chu Ci practiced this set of formulas since she was a child. She snorted through her nose, quite despising this kind of unprofessional behavior, and folded the manuscript and stuffed it into her satchel Inside, greet Shen's father: "Old Shen, let's go."

Footsteps echoed in the corridor.

Chu Ci walked in the front to lead the way.

Gumantong popped his head out of his pocket, tilted his head, and made a "Huh, Huh?" sound.

Chu Ci understood what it said, with a little pride hidden on his face.

"Of course," he said, "I have devoted myself to researching this for three days, and integrated the essence of the teachings of the Huaguo Wheel Sect, Washima Aum Shinrikyo, Bangguo, America's Heaven's Gate Sect, and the European Sun Temple Sect. The secret book compiled can be said to have gathered the wisdom of all human beings (cults)."

Are you afraid that you won't be able to fool a scumbag?
