The Exorcist

Chapter 8 The God of Gamblers Chapter 5 The Hanged Man

In the mirror, the appearance of a young woman was reflected, wearing exquisite silk pajamas, her hair was a little messy, her face was snow-white, and her tears were not dry. It was herself.

She was still holding the charm in one hand on guard, and raised her other hand to stroke her hair. She felt relieved when she saw her own reflection in the mirror doing the same thing. But since she is reflected in the mirror and there is nothing around her, it proves that she is the only one in the bathroom, but where does the sound of bathing come from? !

Thinking of this, she half-tilted her body to look at the shower nozzle. She saw that the nozzle seemed to have just been closed, and there were still water droplets falling to the ground little by little, making a ticking sound, floating in the empty bathroom. echo.

There was really no one else in the bathroom except her, unless - she couldn't see it!

She moved a step, but suddenly felt cold under her feet. She looked down and found that the bathroom drain seemed to be blocked, and cold water was rising to the ground, soaking her bare feet in the water. The water came suddenly and was particularly cold. An uncomfortable numbness spread from the soles of her feet throughout her body, making her already tense nerves even more alert.

Moreover, she was obviously alone, so why did she always feel like there was something behind her? !

There's definitely something weird here! Although she doesn't have yin and yang eyes, she has experienced too many supernatural events and can already sense something!

As soon as she glanced at it, something flashed in her peripheral vision. She couldn't see it clearly, but she was sure that something was moving behind her. Suddenly, Xiaoxia's heart tightened, and she realized that it was something strange coming from the bathroom mirror! She froze and didn't move. She took a few steps forward slowly. The cold water under her feet made a "swishing" sound, and then she suddenly turned back.

In the mirror, there is a woman stroking her hair.

The face belonged to her, Yue Xiaoxia, but she knew it was not hers! Because her fear is getting worse, she is holding the charm in her right hand and holding the wrist of her right hand in her left hand. Where is the third hand to touch her hair? ! She did this action a minute ago, but she didn't expect this scene to be repeated in the mirror.

She was horrified and stared at the scene in the mirror, dumbfounded. At this time, another head stuck out from the back of her head, as if another head had grown on her shoulders - long hair, His seven holes were bleeding, his tongue was hanging out, and a pair of eyes with only the whites radiated a cold and malicious light!

At the same time, my face in the mirror also changed, becoming exactly the same as that 'woman'!

Sleepy!

Xiaoxia finally recited the last word of the Five Elements Forbidden Water spell, and pointed hard at the mirror. With a crisp sound that could shatter the night, the mirror shattered in all directions, and the fragments shot towards Xiaoxia like sprayed bullets.

Xiaoxia didn't hide, and let the small flying knife-like fragments carry the power of the spell, pass over her body, and hit her back. When the shrill screams stopped, she slowly turned around and saw that all the fragments were embedded in the wall opposite the mirror, forming a vague human shape. On the human form, there are some speckled dark brown marks, like coagulated blood!

Xiaoxia imitated Bao Datong and made a hand seal. In fact, she didn't know how to do it at all. She just made imitative gestures to scare the other party. She knew that the 'woman' hadn't left yet. If she ran out now, it would be equivalent to informing the other party that they could retaliate against her.

"Who are you?" she asked loudly.

What answered her was a sudden cry.

"What are you here for?" She suppressed the trembling of her heart after hearing the cry and asked again.

"Wash - it's so dirty - wash," a woman's voice said intermittently.

wash? Could it be that this 'woman' was just here to take a bath, and she didn't mean to harm her? Because she was born unlucky, so she accidentally encountered these strange things? But does the soul still need to be cleansed? Or did she do something related to taking a bath before she died, or did she particularly want to take a bath?

There was a "chi" sound. Before Xiaoxia could think of what to ask next, the water dragon's nozzle suddenly sprayed out water. Originally, Xiaoxia was far away and should not be able to get the water, but the nozzle seemed to adjust its angle automatically. Aiming at Xiao Xia's position, Xiao Xia was soaked on the spot. Because it was so sudden, Xiao Xia's pretense of strength and boldness instantly collapsed.

She subconsciously ran to the door, and at the same time instinctively used the 'water spell' again. She originally only held one talisman in her hand, and the so-called hand seals were sufficient, but she used the water spell in the Five Elements Forbidden Technique, and what suddenly sprayed out was water, so she unintentionally used it. With magic power, the dripping water twisted into a small water column and shot towards the human figure formed by the mirror fragments!

With a 'pop' sound, a crack was created on the tiled wall by the seemingly powerless water column. The 'woman' screamed again, and all the broken lenses originally embedded in the wall were shaken off and floated on the accumulation. Above the water, it didn’t sink at all!

"You are an accomplice!" the 'woman' yelled bitterly, "You must die!" She screamed so sharply that not only Xiaoxia covered her ears in discomfort, but even the ceiling light in the bathroom suddenly exploded, and the surrounding area was plunged into chaos. Total darkness!

Wow——

Suddenly there was a sound of water, and the water waves gently hit Xiaoxia's ankle, letting her know that something was standing in the water and walking towards her step by step. In the darkness, she couldn't see anything, only the fragments floating on the ground shone little by little, as if what was on the water were not broken lenses, but eyes all over the place, staring at Xiaoxia from different angles!

"Dirty - I want to take a shower - you are an accomplice -" a female voice echoed in the darkness.

Xiaoxia was so frightened that she almost fainted, but she maintained her last bit of consciousness, gritted her teeth, took a big step to the right, and touched and pulled in the direction she had planned. Suddenly, the desk lamp on the small table outside the bathroom door came on, and the warm yellow light illuminated a small semicircle, driving away part of the darkness.

Xiaoxia took advantage of this light and quickly ran back to the bed, grabbed a large number of charms from the bedside table, took out one at random, and pointed it at the dark place.

"No matter who you are, no matter what grievances and resentments you have, please stay away from me, I can't control it!" Because she had the golden spell in her hand, she was a little bolder, but her voice sounded a little confident. Not enough, "If you keep pestering me again, I will be rude to you!"

No one answered, but the sound of water in the bathroom started again.

Xiaoxia sat on the bed and hesitated for a while, considering whether to stay here and wait for dawn or go to the bathroom to get rid of her. She had heard people say that some hotels were unclean, but she always thought that only old and small hotels were like this. She didn't expect that these strange things would happen in five-star hotels. She doesn't know whether she is particularly unlucky or whether her horoscope is really so light. Anyway, these things always come to her, and without that man by her side, she is unable to help these things no matter how big the grievances are. , but if it was evil spirits that harmed people, she would have to deal with it herself!

Thinking of this, she stood up, cautiously walked to the bathroom door, raised the charm in her hand, "Vajra protects the body, reflects the Buddha's light, and destroys evil!"

This time, she was determined to protect herself, so she concentrated her mind and heart. After the spell passed, she could only hear a ping-ping-pong-pong sound in the bathroom, and a faint golden light flashed in the bathroom. , the numbing cold feeling in the bathroom completely disappeared.

Xiaoxia let out a sigh of relief, knowing that the 'woman' had left. She tiredly turned on all the lights in the room, then walked back to the bed, put on a coat haphazardly, and thought about what to do next.

Judging from the power of the Five Elements Forbidden Technique just used, the bathroom will definitely be damaged. Compensation doesn't matter. Anyway, He Fugui is very casual about money. She takes care of everything during the trip, including managing various expenses. But, should He Fugui be told about this? If you choose to tell him, what should you say? It seemed that He Fugui was going to stay here for a few days. If she didn't mention it at all, should she change rooms? What's the excuse? And even if she changes rooms, won't the female ghost haunt her?

After thinking for a while, Xiaoxia decided to tell He Fugui what just happened for her own safety. She had seen him burn incense and worship. Although he strangely sacrificed a green satin embroidered shoe and a bowl of white rice mixed with animal blood, he seemed extremely superstitious. If she told him about the female ghost who wanted to take a bath, he might leave immediately, and then she would avoid it.

She heard the man who broke her heart say that a spirit body cannot go very far without something else attached to it.

Having made her decision, she felt lighter again. Inadvertently, she glanced at the curtains, and suddenly her heart moved. She stood up and walked towards the window. It took her a long time to gather the courage to open the curtains a crack and look out the window.

Outside the back window is the entertainment area of ​​the hotel, with a large swimming pool surrounded by beautiful flowers and trees. It was already late at night, and there was no one in the entertainment area, but Xiaoxia still saw something strange at a glance.

A woman was hanging from a tree opposite her window. Her body was hanging loosely like a rag bag, swaying in the autumn breeze, and she happened to turn around when Xiaoxia took a peek!

She lives on the fifteenth floor and is a little short-sighted. She should be reluctant to see a hanged woman, but at this moment, she can even clearly see the face of the hanged man - long hair. Whisking, bleeding from seven holes, tongue sticking out, it is the 'woman' in the bathroom!

Xiaoxia was startled and hurriedly hid behind the curtain, but felt that she had missed something, so she stuck her head out and looked again!

The hanged woman had her eyes closed, but now she suddenly opened them. Her bloodless lips moved, as if she said something, but Xiaoxia couldn't hear or understand.

Ding dong——

Someone rang the doorbell, Xiaoxia jumped up in surprise, threw herself on the bed to get the scattered charms, but before she could get them in a hurry, there was another exciting knock on the door.

"Guest, please open the door. What happened?"

It turned out to be a service staff!

"Guests, please pay attention, we are coming in!" the man's voice shouted again.

Xiaoxia responded hurriedly and put all the charms into the bag on the bedside. As soon as she did all this, the door was opened.

Seeing Xiao Xia standing beside the bed with a frightened look on her face, her clothes disheveled and her hair dripping with water, the man who was obviously the security manager was a little confused. He looked at the woman next to him and Xiao Xia recognized what kind of manager she was.

"I'm sorry, Miss Yue, right?" The woman is very responsible for her work and knows Xiaoxia's last name. "Excuse me, our service staff heard a loud noise in this room, and the tenant next door also reported hearing strange noises. For Make sure Miss Yue is safe and let’s see what’s going on. Do you need any help, Miss Yue?”

Xiaoxia glanced towards the door and saw three security guards following these two people. Outside the door, there were several tenants peering curiously. Knowing that the sound from the bathroom had alerted everyone, she decided to take advantage of the situation.

"I don't know. I slept until midnight, and suddenly I heard the sound of water in the bathroom. I went to look, and the shower head turned on by itself, and I was drenched with water!" Xiaoxia's frightened memories were not fake at all. She had just suppressed them. She vented her uneasiness about living without reservation, "I was so scared that I ran out and heard a loud noise in the bathroom. I didn't know what was going on!" She lied about the last sentence, but her expression made that The two responsible officers were completely convinced.

"Are you not injured?" The female manager glanced at the open bathroom door and winked at the three security guards. The three men immediately formed a fan shape around the bathroom. The bathroom is not an independent room. It is not connected to the outside world except for the door. As long as the door is guarded, if there are gangsters inside, they will never escape.

"I'm fine, but the light in the bathroom suddenly blew out." Xiaoxia thought of the fragments on the ground and the eyes reflected in each fragment, and couldn't help but shudder. "This is so strange. Is your hotel - not clean?" ?”

Xiaoxia's unpretentious body language also frightened the female manager, but she understood that the door was still open, and for fear of affecting the hotel's reputation, she quickly winked at the security supervisor.

"I will send someone to check right now. It is very likely that there is a malfunction in the electrical appliances. As you know, there are also failures in the switches of electrical appliances and water pipes. If this is the case, on behalf of the hotel, I would like to apologize to you for the frightened Ms. Yue. I will definitely give you a reasonable explanation.”

She spoke impeccably, and the security supervisor over there quickly went to the porch to persuade other guests to leave. Xiaoxia heard him say that the tenant made a mistake in operating the electrical appliances and blew up the bathroom. Then she saw him say something with the walkie-talkie, then closed the door and returned to the room to take charge of the 'reconnaissance' work.

The result was completely as expected by Xiaoxia. After the electrician on duty replaced the ceiling light, the hotel staff found that the bathroom was in a mess. The bath mirror was shattered and the broken lenses were scattered far away. It was completely impossible to explain with physics knowledge. The bathroom wall The ground was full of ax chisel marks, and the degree of damage was beyond what this delicate and frail Miss Yue could do.

"I also heard a woman's voice, saying she wanted to take a shower. No one has died here, right?" Xiaoxia added fuel to the staff's doubts.

On the spot, the faces of these parties turned green. No one has died in the hotel, but judging from the situation at the scene and Ms. Yue’s explanation that it didn’t look like she was lying, could it be that it was haunted?

"Let's change your room first and let you have a good rest first." The incident was strange and sudden. The smart and capable female manager and the strong-looking security director didn't know how to handle it, so they had to take remedial measures first, "But this matter, Please don't tell anyone yet. Our hotel has always provided good service. If our reputation is affected by some electrical failure, we - please forgive us. After we discuss it, we will give you a satisfactory solution."

Xiao Xia Ming knew that this had nothing to do with the hotel's service, so he did not deliberately embarrass others. He readily agreed and changed rooms immediately. When all this was done, it was already dawn, and I happened to see the excited and tired He Fugui being sent back by four bodyguards.

"What's going on?" He Fugui asked.

Xiao Xia felt that it was not appropriate for the bodyguards to know about this matter, so she pulled He Fugui aside and whispered, "I've hit a ghost."

For a moment, He Fugui's body froze, and Xiaoxia felt an uncomfortable dizziness at the same time. He Fugui's ears felt very cold, as if something was blowing in his ears, and the angle of his eyes seemed to turn. Too big.
