Chapter 69
I don't know how long that skeleton has been dead, but the bones are already vaguely black, but it moves as naturally as a normal person, with a paintbrush in its bony hands, sketching little by little into the human skin on the table, with a very meticulous look.
The little ghost swallowed a mouthful of spit, look very nervous, he seems very afraid, too scared to move, but my current mind is different from his, I am more appalled than afraid, when did this painting skin come, is it always trailing behind me and Lu Yao, or is it Lu Yao?
My forehead and nose were full of sweat, I looked straight at the skeleton in the room, only to see that it drew on the human skin for a long time, and finally seemed to be very satisfied, but I couldn't see the expression on that skeleton's face at all.
It picked up the human skin, as if it was wearing clothes, and began to slowly put it on its own bones.
I can see very clearly, as long as this human skin touches the bones, immediately grow sinews and blood vessels and muscles, the body gradually full up. As soon as the skin was placed over his head, Lu Yao's face appeared.
This is probably the last thing I want to happen, but once I saw that face, all the emotions in my heart were gone, and I couldn't help but let out a soft "ah"…….
But I didn't know it was such a slight sound, it was heard by the painted skin ghost, his head brushed and turned around, glancing towards the doorway.
The little ghost and I were shocked, and quickly dodged away, both of their hearts were pounding, but the atmosphere did not dare to take a breath.
The little ghost wiped the sweat on his forehead and suddenly whispered, discovered, run!
After saying that, before waiting for me to react, he turned around and ran towards the corridor.
I watched him get farther and farther away from me, not immediately following him, I don't know how many thoughts turned in my mind, thinking that even if Lu Yao was a ghost, but judging from her usual style, she should also be a good ghost. But with this thought in my mind, I was finally overwhelmed by fear.
Hesitating slightly, I immediately followed the little ghost's footsteps. I ran like crazy, this feeling was very unpleasant, but even the kind of person who always dealt with ghosts like the little ghost was afraid, there was naturally no reason for me not to be afraid as well.
Until I came to the corner of the corridor, when I turned to run away, I looked back and realized that Lu Yao had already stuck out a head from the doorway, and was looking at my side, with an expression on his face that I had never seen before, it was like pity, but also like resentment, in a word, it was very entangled.
My footsteps did not stop, the little ghost and I ran all the way downstairs, he did not stop, hard to run out a large distance, before stopping, standing on the side of the road gasping for breath.
I even originally very wretched, now the appearance is to cause a lot of people to watch, not to mention the clothes on my body were corpse dolls to the tattered and torn, there is a large blood stain on the shoulder. The people passing by around us didn't dare to approach us, but it was a good thing that no one was bothering us.
We both sat down on the side of the road and caught our breath for a while before catching our breath.
The little ghost glanced at me, then slapped his thigh and said, how is it, I didn't lie to you, the last time I felt me in the hospital it was the same scent.
I bowed my head and contemplated, did not say anything, my mind was in chaos, and did not know what to answer.
The little ghost saw me like this, that kind of teasing expression only put away some, said, Tan …… Tan Xi, right, although I don t know your situation, but you have met the Lord who can t afford to be messed with. Do you know what that thing is?
I nodded, still did not speak.
The little ghost seems to have opened the box of words, open the mouth and can not stop, said that the monster, to put it simply, called the painted skin, Japan also has a related legend, called the bone woman. But no matter in which culture, are hurt people hurt people, more horrible is, it can converge their own breath at will, usually to human appearance out, even if you exorcise the ghost ability is strong, you can not find it is a ghost non-human, only wait until it retired after the human skin.
Said, he sighed, and said, but you so counted good, found early, can still avoid. That ghost thing, only need a skin, can draw all kinds of people's appearance, you simply can't tell whether it's real or not.
I still didn't make a sound, and all I could recall in my mind was the situation with Lu Yao from the time we met until now.
From the very beginning, she was a kind and beautiful person, and didn't show the slightest bit of malice, no matter whether it was to me or to Lin Tian, if she hadn't been there before, I don't know what would have become of her now.
But through this change, a lot of things I want to understand, Lu Yao body always have a faint pen and ink flavor, before I have always felt unlike other girls that kind of vulgar perfume, feel quite good smell, now it seems that this is indeed the human skin on the ink flavor.
And the hanging ghost never dared to appear in front of her, I once thought that he would only move when I was alone, but when I encountered the dead dogs in the back of the mountain, it was also the case that as soon as Lu Yao came, the hanging ghost hid, and the dogs dispersed, although I didn't notice it at that time, but now I think about it, it should be all because of the relationship of fear of it.
And this thing even only need a skin, can make people can not distinguish between the real and the fake, then I suddenly thought of, not long ago, I just met the two mouth female Xie Ning when I had now in the dream world to Lin Tian, but Lin Tian also denied it, although at that time, he has called parasitic grass on the body of the ghosts, that is, when I was buried alive when he climbed out of his ears face bugs.
That kind of parasitic grass, though, should only listen to my mom and not help Xie Ning and the others. But if there was someone who could disguise himself as Lin Tian, and even imitate his speaking voice to the point where it was hard to tell the difference between the real and the fake, I definitely wouldn't be able to tell the difference. But if that was the case, then everything made sense.
But if Lu Yao is a so horrible ghost, and why in front of me, feinting a good person posture, she can real face out, as long as it is harmless, I basically can accept, even if not accept to follow the side of me also do not have the ability to refuse, why go around in such a big circle.
Or is it that there are actually two Lu Yao, if this painted skin can just become a human appearance, then is it true that Lu Yao is gone and replaced by this ghost?
Even more bizarrely, thinking about it as it is now, if the real Lu Yao is a ghost, then is Lu Yao's father also a demon in human skin?
But from the things I've seen in the mirror, Lu Yao's father does have some connection to my grandfather's family, and there's no need for the two of them, one with a white face and one with a black face, to complicate their relationship so much.
If Lu Yao was really so fierce, then why did she have to be so sympathetic when we bumped into ghosts several times, whether we encountered necrophiliacs or pregnant women's ghosts, but what she showed was just a woman's greatest courage and ability to endure.
Furthermore, the note I left at that time, the handwriting is indeed my good, but after the content has changed, is not this painted skin Lu Yao in order to follow me and move the hand?
My mind is more and more chaotic, think of the end, inexplicably feel a little pathetic, look at this more than half a month, my world, almost everything has changed, Lin Tian suspected me, Ding Ding for me to live and die do not know, even suddenly met a kind sister, in the end there are so many secrets. At this rate, I guess I don't have the ability to trust others, quite a bit of life is a lonely heart feeling.
I thought about it, asked the little ghost said, even if she is a severe ghost, but she followed me all the way, but there is no meaning to hurt people, you are also dealing with ghosts, there are also ghosts around the car, you do not have to because she is a painted skin so completely denied it?
The little ghost disdainfully look at me, a pat on the thigh, said Tan Xi, other I dare not guarantee, the world does not harm people's ghosts, just like people, there will always be a good and evil standards. But other ghosts I dare to say so, but if the painted skin does not harm people, I curse myself to be smoked to death by the mouth of the ghost car!
I said, "What do you mean by that?
The little ghost said, at least is a Chinese, the story of the painted skin heard it, although the movie changed even worse, but there is one thing is unchanged, that is, the painted skin will eat the hearts of the people, and now did not show any malicious intent, but stayed by her side, sooner or later have to be heart and lungs. Moreover, the Knight Ghosts are Knight Ghosts, and they never do things reasonably, if you want to tell me that they have gone from good to evil, this is as unreliable in my ears as the national soccer team dominating the world.
I was silent for a while, on the words of the little ghost some half-believe half-doubt, to say before, I did not see with my own eyes to see things are not easy to believe, but now, seeing is believing that this sentence is really not much use to me, completely rely on their own little by little to analyze the cocoon, other people's words can only be used as a reference.
I am trying to think, which know the side of the little ghost suddenly screamed, body shaking, directly fell me in my side, the whole person lying on the ground, and even continue to backward, looking at my side, face is full of frightened look.
I look at him like this is very strange, busy asked a what happened?
His eyes were wide open, his mouth stammered, and he couldn't even speak clearly for fear. My heart tightened, and I was busy looking back to find a figure standing behind me with no expression on her face, staring blankly at me.
I looked at her, grew my mouth, half a day before spitting out two words,Lu Yao ……
