Chapter 14: Heavy Rain

When Lin Quying heard the sound of footsteps, he was so scared that his face turned white, and for a moment he almost lost the ability to think, just instinctively stepped away and wanted to escape upwards. But then, he found …… that his legs were like cramps, how could he not lift them. He barely lifted his feet, but he felt that his whole foot was soft, and he only went up two steps. He didn't know why he didn't end up being able to exert force on his feet, but the sound of footsteps downstairs was getting closer and closer! Lin Quying really wanted to yell for help at this moment, but where did he dare to make even the slightest sound at this moment? In the face of life and death crisis, he can be said to have exploded the last potential, forcibly continue to walk upwards, one step …… two steps …… three steps …… finally, he walked to the top staircase Steps, but at this time, the sound of footsteps behind, is also getting closer and closer! At this time, Lin Quying despaired and almost cried out, what the hell should he do? Just at this moment, a voice suddenly came from downstairs. "Nie Han, why do you have to come to this building across the street? Didn't find anything either?" "This building is the closest to us, so whether there are clues or not, it's worth taking a look." Immediately after that, the footsteps, immediately headed downwards! Now, Lin Quying only felt that cramping sensation in his feet disappear instantly, and he was so frightened that he immediately ran towards the upper floors. Running to the 10th floor, he finally determined that he was still in the building he was in. Rushing into the hallway, he headed straight towards his front door. "Luckily I have the key with me!" As he used the key to open the door, he also looked behind him every now and then to make sure nothing was coming after him before opening the door quickly! As soon as the door opened, he pushed aside the sofa blocking the doorway, and immediately afterward, he saw a terrified Cao Zhong. "You …… Ah Lin?" "I, my life, almost accounted for down there!" Immediately afterward, he closed the door immediately! "Thanks to those apartment dwellers …… it's true that just like the novels written, evil spirits will all prioritize attacking the apartment dwellers who perform the blood words ah." Hearing Lin Quying say that, Cao Zhong also felt incredulous. When Cao Zhong heard Lin Quying finish his specific experience, he was even more jaw-dropped. "Listening to you, those few tenants might not have their lives saved." Lin Quying said with a bitter smile, "At this time, I'd rather prioritize our own lives." Cao Zhong, on the other hand, thought for a moment and said, "Maybe this is an opportunity ah, let's, why don't we escape from here while the evil spirits go to deal with those apartment dwellers?" "This?" "Think about it, according to you, right now that evil spirit …… should be in the stairwell dealing with those three tenants. We, why don't we just use this opportunity to escape? Escape from this neighborhood!" Lin Quying thought left and right, but still couldn't make up his mind, "But, but it's too dangerous to go on like this. Think about it, that evil spirit can easily move me to the stairwell, the spatial distance doesn't seem to make much sense ah?" "This is …… also right." Cao Zhong's argument did make sense, but, after thinking about it, Lin Quying still felt that it was too risky. No matter what, the evil spirits were still still staying inside this building. Going down like this, no one knew if they would die. First of all, if one went down in an elevator, it was almost a death wish, how many characters in horror movies died in elevators. And going down in the stairwell …… might not be possible for the evil spirits to block the bottom! "It's better to wait and wait." Lin Quying was always still unsettled: "This, this is too dangerous." "You figure it out, Ah Lin!" Cao Zhong analyzed the stakes for Lin Quying, "You were lying on your bed, and you were able to get into the stairwell! If it wasn't for those apartment dwellers who happened to come here, you'd probably be reporting to Hades right now! Run away, run away! Escaping now is the best chance!" Lin Quying thought about it left and right, but he still didn't dare to die. "Still …… better to wait? We, again …… observe again?" Lin Quying refused to go, Cao Zhong alone did not dare to go downstairs. And, to be honest, he also held in his heart to go down with Lin Quying, let this guy go in front, so that the evil spirits really blocked below, then maybe also kill him first, then Cao Zhong still have a way to escape back. Now, both of them were nervous to the limit. The evil spirits could know Lin Quying's cell phone number out of thin air, could get him to the stairwell out of thin air, and could easily kill him. Yet, it didn't do that, why? According to the novel, the apartment would not restrict the evil spirits from laying their hands on the general public, could it be that they are killing people with a cat-and-mouse mentality? Now, Lin Quying and Cao Zhong are both screaming in their hearts, this is a typical fight between gods and mortals, obviously it was the apartment residents who executed the blood words, how come they, the unrelated passersby, were also involved? Two people all night in the thought struggle, but no one dares to go down. In the end, no one dared to take another step out of the room. They both hoped that the occupants could completely attract the attacking firepower of the evil spirits, leaving them a line of respite for survival. Unconsciously …… both actually fell asleep at the door. Not knowing how long had passed, a rumble of thunder awakened the two. Lin Quying climbed up with a jolt, he fell asleep lying on the sofa in the living room, and took a look at Cao Zhong, who had just woken up lying on the sofa blocking the doorway, and hurriedly said, "I'm going to go, we all fell asleep?" Taking a look at the wall clock on the wall, it was now 7:30 in the morning. Accompanied by the rumbling thunder outside, a downpour of rain fell outside at this time. So much so that even though it was clearly seven thirty, the sky was cloudy and no sunlight could be seen. "You said …… that …… that 'thing', is it still downstairs?" At this point, using something to describe the evil spirit downstairs, they all felt creepy. "Go check the binoculars!" Cao Zhong pointed in the direction of the bedroom and said, "Look at the opposite side, if we say we see that …… you know what appearing in the opposite window, then we can go down." Lin Quying nodded desperately, this was indeed a very good solution! "Good! Good idea! It's settled!" The two of them quickly rushed into the bedroom, and right after that, Lin Quying lunged straight towards that telescope. The first thing he looked at was naturally the room where the scarf-wearing woman walked out. And although it was cloudy at this time, there was always a bit of light compared to the night. And to top it off, the other half of the curtains were pulled back at this point! "This is?" At this time, on the bed, there was still that bed quilt, as well as a pair of feet exposed underneath the quilt! This person, could he have been lying on the bed all along? Seeing this scene, Lin Quying's hand gripping the binoculars was filled with sweat. Just how long is this person going to lie down? Lin Quying carefully stared at the person under the quilt on the bed, now he was almost certain that this person, definitely would not be a living person! At this time, Lin Quying's line of sight suddenly swept to the bedroom next to the door, and from that door position can see the position of the entrance door, and at this time, it happens to be that he saw the entrance door leading to the outside closed! Seeing this scene, Lin Quying's heart was stunned. And the person on the bed was still covered by the quilt, only revealing a pair of bare feet. But just at this time, he suddenly saw that the quilt, actually moved! Moved! The quilt was slowly lifted, and at this time Lin Quying's heart was also suspended to the throat. What exactly is …… underneath this? At this moment, countless horror movies in the terrible picture in his mind came up, can say he has been fully prepared mentally, no matter how horrible a face is revealed underneath, he will not be surprised. But …… What was revealed underneath that quilt was the face of a man who couldn't have looked more ordinary looking. He rubbed his eyes and stretched, then picked up a still-charging cell phone from the bedside and wrapped his head inside the quilt again, obviously looking at his cell phone under the quilt. "This …… this? What's this?" This image looked at Lin Quying confused, to be honest now even if an alien came out from inside the quilt he wouldn't be surprised, but how could it be a man who looked even more ordinary? He carefully stared at this image, after a while, suddenly …… The man lifted the covers a little more, revealing his head, and continued to start looking at his cell phone, while one of his feet retreated into the covers. And at this time, the part of the quilt in the direction of his feet suddenly began to bulge high. Immediately after that, the quilt rumbled higher and higher, and the man also realized something was wrong, and was just about to lift the quilt to look at it, when a pair of hands snapped out from under the quilt, grabbed him by the neck in a death grip, and pulled him back under the quilt! Two high bulges under the quilt then fought with each other, but it didn't take long for the struggle to stop. Finally, a pair of large feet slowly emerged from the other end of the quilt, while the two outlines coming out of the tops of the knees slowly drooped. Meanwhile, the extra outline inside the quilt was gradually drying out ……
