Chapter 472 Provocation or Reminder
Chapter 472 Provocation or Reminder
"We just heard the sound of the window moving several times."
"The window suddenly felt like something was hitting it from outside, and then it broke."
After Shen Lan finished speaking, his eyes fell on the still open window.
Gu Chaoxi and Pei Yan walked towards this side and indeed did not see anything outside the window.
Qin Wei sat down on the chair next to Shen Lan: "Why don't you tell me what kind of sound it is."
Shen Lan swallowed and began to describe.
"It sounded like the windows were in disrepair and were blown by the wind. It happened several times and started after you went upstairs."
"It was intermittent, not continuous, until the window opposite seemed to be hit by something and shattered."
During the process, Shen Lan even stood up to check the windows, but they were all normal.
But she didn't see anything strange outside the window either.
So when the glass suddenly shattered, she was startled.
Gu Zhaoxi touched his chin and tilted his head to look over: "But when we were upstairs just now, we heard Su Zhaoran's voice first, and then yours."
The two people's voices are not synchronized.
As for this, Su Zhaoran raised his hand somewhat embarrassedly: "Because I saw a bearded face at the window."
Isn’t that the man in the family photo?
Shen Yao reacted instantly: "The male owner is not dead, and he is still living in this house?"
Gu Chaoxi shook his head: "No, if he had been living in this house all along, he could have just walked in directly for outsiders like us."
"But no matter how you look at it, the act of smashing windows seems like a provocation or a reminder."
After saying that, Gu Chaoxi looked towards Pei Yan.
Yes, provocation and reminder.
If it was a provocation, it shouldn't be, after all, they are not people who live in this room for a long time.
So, it’s the latter situation, he wants to remind them something.
What was it reminding them to do? To remind them to leave the house quickly?
Is there something in this house that scares this man so much that he dares not enter the house and can only use this method to warn strangers who enter the house?
So where does this man live now?
Gu Chaoxi felt that there were still many things they had not seen.
She looked out the dark window again: "We must go out and look for something else in this forest."
Turning back, Gu Chaoxi glanced at Luo Zhenxian who was still lying on the table.
Pei Yan immediately understood what she meant and went over and patted Luo Zhenxian on the head with one hand.
“Hiss…Ouch!”
He woke up from the table and held the back of his head: "Who, who hit me!"
"I." Pei Yan lowered his eyes and looked at him, with little emotion in his eyes.
Luo Zhen was stunned for a moment, then immediately shut up.
"Now everyone take a kerosene lamp and let's go out and look for clues."
After Gu Chaoxi finished speaking, Luo Zhenxian's face looked a little ugly. He just opened his mouth to say something when Qin Wei on the side spoke slowly.
"There are two corpses upstairs. If you are not afraid that they will suddenly come back to life and look for you, you can just stay in this house."
As he spoke, Luo Zhenxian unconsciously looked towards the stairs as Qin Wei said.
It was pitch black, and it seemed that with the help of Qin Wei's words, something horrible was about to come down from it.
So, Luo Zhenxian suddenly jumped up from his chair.
He even leaned too high and his knees hit the edge of the table.
But he didn't care to cry out in pain, he found a kerosene lamp and held it in his hand, then turned to look at Pei Yan: "Master, let's go now, let's go!"
After dealing with Luo Zhenxian, everyone found a kerosene lamp and walked out of the door in pairs.
When I came out of the door, it was pitch black outside. Fortunately, there was the kerosene lamp in my hand to illuminate the outside, so it was no longer as dark as before.
Gu Chaoxi stood on the steps and looked to the right. It was the window here that had just been broken.
She made a gesture to Shen Yao, and immediately understood, so she walked to the right.
Everyone consciously formed a team and walked to the right.
Following the right side of the house, they came to the broken window.
Because the house as a whole is higher than the ground, when standing outside the house, your head is just above the window, but not much higher.
Shen Yao squatted down and looked at the ground. Apart from a pile of dead leaves, he basically didn't see anything else.
I reached out and touched the ground, and my fingers felt a bulge.
He lowered his eyes, brushed aside the topmost fallen leaves, and saw a cherry-sized stone.
It must be this stone that smashed the window just now.
He stood up from the ground holding the stone, turned his head and looked in the direction opposite the window. It was pitch black there.
The wind blew through the woods, and the only sound you could hear was the rustling of leaves.
He reached out and handed the stone to Gu Chaoxi and Pei Yan, and their eyes darkened.
She had seen the broken glass in the room, which was relatively thick. It took a lot of force to break glass of this thickness.
It is obviously impossible to hit such a small stone from close range.
It looked more like the rocks were being thrown towards us from a distance using something like a slingshot.
Either this person is strong enough, or the tool he uses has particularly strong instantaneous force.
Pei Yan patted Shen Yao's shoulder and pointed towards the darkness over there: "Let's go over there and take a look."
Shen Yao nodded and began to explore the way in that direction.
I had only walked less than ten meters when I felt that the distance between these tree trunks seemed closer than that next to the house.
Su Zhaoran was stumbling along beside Shen Lan. He stumbled and subconsciously reached out to hold onto the tree trunk next to him.
However, her hands felt sticky. She looked at it with the kerosene lamp and screamed subconsciously.
Everyone looked in the direction she was going and saw red liquid on the raised right hand.
Qin Wei frowned and looked towards the tree trunk she had just supported, and saw red liquid flowing out of it.
She raised her hand and held the kerosene lamp high, and then everyone saw that a black object suddenly fell from above.
This time, more than one person screamed.
When Qin Wei was stepping back, fortunately Shen Yao took a step forward, otherwise she might have fallen.
No matter how calm a person is, he is now a little uneasy.
After all, this hanging black thing really scared Qin Wei the moment she saw it clearly.
The black thing is actually hair, and inside it is a head made of white paper.
The facial features drawn with black lines on the head look particularly stiff.
The only thing that was dotted with red was the eyes.
The moment that thing fell, the eye seemed to be blinking.
