The Haunted - Chapter 157
Later, he took the porcelain bottle from Ye Ying’s hand, unscrewed the black cork, and drank the light silver liquid inside.
The liquid is not cool, but like a person’s body temperature with a faint temperature. I feel that I have recovered my strength from the limbs, like a tree branch that was frozen by the snow and snow all over the winter. The warm sun of spring has once again revived. Correspondingly, the feeling of being tired and sleepy has disappeared. He seems to be healthy and full of energy before returning to illness.
The change of the lover in Ye Yingzhi’s eyes is equally obvious. The pale face was restored to a slight blood color, and the face that was slightly thinner was also richer due to the blood color. His hand was dry and warm, and Ye Yingzhi was tightly held in his hand, looking at his lover’s face, closing his eyes, and unable to speak for a moment, and finally reached out and handed it into his arms.
“You are new people, we have lucky pharmacies, power potions in our store… buy some good for you…” The clerk is trying to continue selling the goods, and they see that the two have been together and have to shrug their shoulders. Look at it.
Ye Yingzhi’s body temperature has been cold, and his hands are also cool. When he was still in good health, he always held his hand in his hand. Sometimes the two were together at home, and they might even hold it. His hand reached into his clothes and put him on his stomach. But later, I was sick, my body was getting worse and worse, I was getting chilly, my hands were cold all the year round, and Ye Yingzhi sometimes held his hand distressedly, and found that the lover’s hand was cooler than his own. – At that time, his heart was full of fear. He couldn’t imagine if Auntie left him. If there is no such person in the world, what should he do? If the aunt loses himself, then More lonely and more sad. As time goes by, the hope of late healing is getting more and more embarrassing, and the physical condition is getting worse. Before they go out to sea, the only way he can think of is to leave with his lover.
You gave birth to me, you die and die.
But now, suddenly he opened a door in front of him, and the light came in, so that he had hope in an instant – there is a real demon that can sell life in the world, and he can earn enough points, he can Save the life of the aunt.
The two men hugged for a long time in the demon shop, only slightly separated, smiled at each other, just about to open the store door to leave, listen to the clerk’s voice to raise the voice: “Remind, our store’s goods have been sold It is not refundable. And the life we sell only covers the natural life of human beings. If the user is killed or killed by accident, the store is not responsible.”
After a long time, I turned to the store clerk and smiled and nodded, and made it clear that I followed Ye Yingzhi.
As Hutu said, the buildings in the Devil Town are all entertainment venues for carnival and games. There is no such thing as a house. Only the town center has a hotel with a green signboard that is open for business because of the room price. Too high and the business is deserted.
But Ye Yingzhi is never willing to let Chi Yu follow him on the streets. Even in such a situation, he should provide the best quality of life for his partner as much as possible.
So after coming out of the Devil’s Store, he went to find the Devil’s Inn with a late arrival and registered the room with the front desk.
The Devil Inn has three floors. From the outside, the entire building has been ruined. The outer layer is also covered with mottled green paint. The environment of the interior room was not flattering. The bed, desk and wardrobe all gave the feeling of being abandoned for a long time. The whole looks like the setting in the horror film of the last century. However, this hotel is also the only place in the town that can close the door and rest.
A room has a hundred points a day, but for most of the people on the island, their initial points are only two or three thousand. There are not many points that can be earned every day. Everyday you need to buy a variety of things that can help them survive. Power, luck, stealth and other potions, the potions sold in these stores are not cheap, but without them they may be difficult to survive. In addition, they have to beware of fraudsters and robbers, and they have to exchange points for the opportunity to leave the island, so not many people are willing to spend 100 points a day to stay in the store.
Ye Yingzhi booked a room for ten days at a time. After returning to the room, he did not know what he thought. He suddenly smiled and smiled at the lateness: “…will the aunt know that her husband is too defeated?”
Late because of his self-proclaimed red face, his head whispered: “No, how can I be willing to let you sleep outside…” In his eyes, Ye Yingzhi is as good as an angel descending from the sky. Everything is perfect, he will only regret that he has no ability to provide the best for his lover, so he can only love each other wholeheartedly and satisfy each other’s wishes as much as possible.
“Little idiot.” Ye Yingzhi smiled softly, holding his jaw slightly to force him to look up at him, then bowed his head and kissed each other’s eyes.
*****
In Devil Town, risks and benefits are corresponding.
The old devil at the front desk of the hotel broke a corner and told his generous guests that the Devil Theatre, not far from here, is a good place to earn points. There are two ways to play, one is to be the audience, the other is Kind is to be an actor. When the audience needs to spend a point to purchase the show ticket, if they can watch the show alive, they can get double points. When the actors are performing on the same stage as the demons, if the show ends, the demon does not find out which actors on the stage are human. Then, this human being can obtain the points that promised to leave safely; if the demons on the stage recognize the human beings mixed in the actors, then they can take this human out to eat.
The old devil hopes that this guest can live a few more days, so that he can take care of his business for a few days.
Ye Yingzhi and Chi Yu returned to the square with the angel fountain under the guidance of the old devil. Sure enough, there is a milky white circular ring building directly opposite the devil shop. The wall on the left side of the building is hung with gold. The four words of the Devil’s Theatre – according to the old devil, all the words in the town are demon, but in humans it will automatically become their mother tongue.
The two came to the ticket outlet of the theater, where there were already a lot of people waiting in line to buy tickets. In contrast, in the theater, the audience is less risky and does not require too much mental energy. Every day there will be Many people come to try their luck.
Today’s performers are “The Voice of Hell” Akabella Voices Society, they will recruit a co-performer, the reward is five thousand points. The seat fares for today’s performances are divided into 25, 50, 100 and 200.
During each performance break, the number and number of “lucky viewers” in the game will be randomly selected. Each performance may draw 0~3 “audiences”, and the audience will be left to become this. Show the devil’s food. The higher the fare is, the higher the probability that the seat will be drawn. Correspondingly, if you are lucky enough to survive, you will get more reward points.
Of course, there are devils who come to the town for leisure travel, but they all sit on the third floor of the theater and do not participate in the “lucky audience” draw.
When Ye Yingzhi and Chi Yu were discharged, the actor’s column was hung with a “full” sign. However, they did not want to apply for actors today without knowing the situation, just to get familiar with the environment. Ye Yingzhi cautiously bought a ticket for the value of 25 points for himself and Chi Yu. He counted it, and at the same time he smoked three viewers per game, he was drawn at the same time. The probability is not high. If one of them is unfortunately drawn, then he will leave the ticket with the ticket, so that he will return to the hotel. He believes that he will be able to escape at that time. After all, Auntie is waiting for himself at the hotel.
The Devil’s Theatre is just like any other theater. The higher the fare, the better the viewing angle. The late and Ye Yingzhi buy the cheapest ticket and can only sit at the end of the second floor. They were filled with humans with different shapes, but everyone was trembled and uneasy, and did not watch the interest of the show.
The lights on the stage changed and the performance began very quickly. Five men wearing black casual pants, white shirts and plaid vests appeared on the stage. From the outside, they are no different from ordinary humans. The facial features are deep and the Western looks, but there is no obvious non-human characteristics like the store clerk or the hotel’s old demons. However, the recruitment information of the actors can be clearly inferred that only One is a real human being.
Acapella is a form of vocal performance that does not use any accompaniment or instruments, and fully utilizes the vocalization of the human body to achieve rich singing effects. The five people seemed to be a good partner for many years. They pushed each other for a while and started the first song. One person and two hands were in front of him, making a small trumpet and simulating the corresponding The voice of the other; the left-most actor began to “play”, and the two actors in the middle looked at each other and sang.
To be honest, they have a tacit understanding and strong expressiveness. They are not too much to be compared to the top teams that have been seen in the real human society. It is impossible to imagine that these five actors have never met before. That’s right, the “Sound of Hell” Akabella vocal society does not exist at all, or only the time of this performance. In order to ensure the effect of the game, the actors who performed on stage were also temporary demons who came to the Devil Town for a holiday and did not know each other. So before the show began, only humans knew that they were humans, and concluded that the other four were demons. The devils only knew that they were demons, but they did not know which ones were humans and which ones were demons. In the middle of the screening.
And such a game is the devil’s favorite.
Late, I began to admire the man who was mixed between the four demons. The psychological quality and adaptability of the other side should be very good, and they can be kept in a hurry. They always keep pace with the four demons, as if he is also a vacationer. The relaxed and savory cannibal demon. At least so far, I haven’t seen any flaws in the late days, and I can’t tell which one of the five people on the stage is human.
Soon, several songs were sung and entered the intermission.
There was a tense and dignified atmosphere in the audience.
“Ladies and gentlemen, let’s relax, and soon I will come to the most anticipated part of the lucky audience.” The host laughed and came on stage. “Come on, it will come, system, background, music, turn Get up! Look who is the lucky one today!”
The familiar voice, the host is the tuxedo clown who received them into town last night. However, he changed his dark yellow checkered tuxedo, and the clown makeup on his face was exactly the same as yesterday.
About half a minute later, the lottery music disappeared and a white card appeared out of the clown’s hand. He glanced at the card, licked his mouth, threw the card away, and spread his hands to make a frustrated expression: “Sad, unlucky day, there is no lucky audience today.”
The audience heard a sigh of relief.
The clown turned and left the stage, his face still showing a frustrated expression, but his eyes floated with a slightly mocking smile.
In the second half, the audience was obviously more relaxed, and the performance on the stage was still wonderful. More and more viewers began to be attracted by the performance. The last song is a rock, and even a lot of viewers sang along. Just as everyone was immersed in the music, the sound on the stage came to an abrupt end, and the five actors each put up a funny and exaggerated posture, stopping, as if it were five statues.
However, after half a minute, the five actors began to sing along with the melody. The song gradually slipped into the end, the sound of singing was getting weaker and weaker, and the five actors stopped making sounds in turn, and the exaggerated posture on the stage stopped like a statue. With the last experience, this time no audience feels strange, and this is still part of the performance by default.
Until everyone gradually began to find out that the four actors on the right all showed a big smile, exaggeratedly extended their arms and pointed to the leftmost actor.
The leftmost actor was originally standing in the same place with a smile, but soon he realized that it was wrong, the smile was too late to disappear, and his face was suddenly white.
