Chapter 514 Matches and Girls (4,000-word chapter!)(1/2)
A giant mountain that cannot be known how high it is, completely shrouded in shadow.
In the forest path, five figures were running for the best, with rapid breathing and suppressed crying mixed together. The moonlight falling from the sky was covered by dark clouds, and the five people could only barely see the path a few meters ahead.
On both sides are dense grass, with rich branches but bare strange trees. The cold wind whistles like the roar of a devil.
These five people are two men and three women, a boy with black curly hair and glasses, a strong blonde young man, a girl with red curly hair, an older blonde short-haired woman, and the oldest middle-aged woman wearing teacher's clothing and braised brown hair.
It seemed that because she was inconvenient to run, she took off her high heels and held them in her hands. Her fair feet had been cut by gravels and thorns, but her physical strength was still second among the five, second only to the strong young man.
Soon, the weakest red-haired girl, together with the boy with the glasses, staggered and fell to the ground in exclamation, and the other three stopped.
While the two of them went to help them, the middle-aged woman suddenly turned around and asked:
"Maisie, how long will it take to stay, we can't hold on."
As she asked, she saw a huge "wild beast" poking out her head silently in the shadows on her side.
This was a giant wolf with silver-white hair all over the body, and it looked like a glowing wolf in the moonlight.
Its mighty and domineering head, with humanized colors flashing in its eyes. When a few people stopped, an anxious look flashed in their eyes, and they said, "You can't rest. Only by entering Match Street can you be safe for the time being."
"It's right ahead, hold on for a while..."
As the silver-white giant wolf spoke, a brilliance shone out from his pupils. The strong light fainted when it reached the distance, but it was vaguely visible that a street appeared at the end of the path and at the exit of the forest.
The five people even saw the road paved with blue stone slabs, the shops on both sides, and the exciting glass windows, which were a civilized atmosphere.
Hope was right in front of him, and the five people who were already tired and pale faces were cheering up, but soon, three terrifying roars suddenly came from behind them, followed by black shadows larger than giant wolf, shattering trees and other obstacles, chasing them towards them.
Under the faint moonlight, the five people could see clearly that this was a three-headed monster.
They seemed to be "pig-shaped monsters" that had been magnified many times. They each held a kitchen knife, an axe, and a steel fork in their hands. The eyes flashed with fierce light condensed on the five people and the giant wolf. The smell of stench swept over like a storm.
They roared:
"Maisie, you kidnapped our prey again, and I'm going to tear you apart."
"Damn guy, I can't forgive you again this time."
"Our little benefactors, stop. There is the monster's territory ahead. Don't go in, as you will die miserably."
Although the three-headed monsters can speak, it seems to have leaked some more terrifying information.
But at this time, the five people had no second choice.
They originally had a team of more than a dozen people. They watched with their own eyes that other companions were killed by these three monsters and threw them into a bloody place they called the "granary".
"Escape!"
The middle-aged woman yelled directly.
Immediately, she burst out with a momentum like a sprinter and headed towards the brightly lit street.
The other four people followed.
Although they worked very hard, their speed could not be compared with the huge monsters. Just as they were about to be caught up, the silver-white giant wolf suddenly braked, and a decisive look flashed through his humanized eyes, and said to the five people: "I'll stop them, you can enter Match Street quickly, remember, at midnight... don't buy matches."
As soon as he finished speaking, it turned and pounced on the three monsters.
When the five people rushed into the street one after another and felt the breath of lights, they immediately turned around, and then covered their mouths at the same time, tears slid down uncontrollably.
Not far away, at the end of the path, three monsters were dismembering the giant wolf.
Its head, limbs and torso have been completely separated, and the dazzling and domineering silver eyes are gradually disappearing.
What is moving is that from beginning to end, the giant wolf made no sound.
"Maisie..."
Even the strongest middle-aged woman finally couldn't hold on at this time, and she crouched down and tears fell.
The dim lights cut the street and the forest path into two worlds. The three monsters, like the giant wolf said, were afraid of the streets and did not dare to offend them at all. They glared at the five people with hatred and quickly left with the giant wolf's body.
Sadness swept through the five people. They were not killed by the monsters called "Big Pige", "Little Pige" and "Little Pige" like other companions. It was because Maisie, when the graduation tour group where the five people were mistakenly entering this strange world, they appeared in front of them and took them to avoid the monster hunting.
Now, it has been killed.
Just when the five people were confused and helpless, suddenly, a shout came from beside them:
"Hey, do you guys want to eat roast duck?"
The five people subconsciously turned their heads and saw a fat white man in a chef's uniform lying on the windowsill on the first floor, staring at them.
Behind him were roast ducks hanging, and golden oil dripped down, making the rich fragrance of the index finger wafted out.
Including middle-aged women, they subconsciously gulped and swallowed their saliva.
The strange emotions replaced the sadness deep in their hearts.
The woman in charge asked, "How much does one cost?"
The fat man seemed to have been waiting, and immediately replied: "Here, only exchanges are accepted."
After saying that, a strange smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, his mouth opened, revealing his yellow and black teeth and sticky saliva.
His eyes were like picking goods to shuttle back and forth among the five people, and finally fell on the strong blonde young man. He slowly added with a hoarse and greedy voice: "One person, exchange for a roast duck, the whole street, I am the cheapest here."
As if in response to him, the sound of the windows being opened one after another, and the heads of fat people popped out, staring at them strangely, and the aroma of roast duck became even stronger.
boom!
The heads of the five people seemed to be beaten hard by a sledgehammer at this time. The terrifying murmur echoed, and the creepy aura grew wildly, the hairs stood up, and the body was stunned, like a sculpture, and she didn't dare to move for a moment.
The middle-aged woman in the lead mustered up the courage, twisted her head stiffly, looked to the end of the street, trying to see a way out.
But in her eyes, she only saw one "roasted duck restaurant" after another, and darkness was sweeping over from afar.
Dangdangdang!
It was extremely abrupt, and the melodious bell rang.
In the eyes of the five people, the terrifying "roasted duck restaurant owners" all showed a look of horror, and they retracted their bodies back into the store with a scattered sound.
The reassuring lights began to go out one by one.
Infinite darkness came almost instantly.
"Midnight~ is here?"
Among the five, the young man with curly hair and glasses trembled.
Without him reminding, the few people gathered together, and unprecedented fear began to occupy their hearts.
In the darkness, the cold wind, like spiders' silk, wrapped around them, spreading through the gaps in their necks, spreading everywhere in their bodies. The snow, like fluffy, began to fall, and the coldness brought by each melting made their hearts beat slower.
From the perspective that should have been dark, they suddenly saw that in the darkness of nothingness, there were clusters of shadows, they had bizarre bodies, they penetrated some barriers, and the low murmurs were conveyed, and the sticky, rotten tentacles, and the huge empty palms spread towards them.
A crazy, chaotic impulse forms a tide that begins to hit their souls.
All five people realized that if this continues, they will become madmen?
It was at this moment that a strange and sticky sound came from the front.
"It's like ~ it's like barefoot, stepping in the sewage?"
This thought just emerged from the five people's hearts.
Puff!
Without warning, the fire lit up and a match appeared in front of the five people. With the help of the brilliant and explosive glory, the five people saw a little girl wearing a patched cloth skirt, with dazzling blonde hair, and a cute and beautiful little face.
There were many matches in her apron pocket and she was holding a handful of matches in her hand.
The girl stepped barefoot in the cold sewage, looked at the five people with a pair of blue and pure eyes, and asked with a hint of begging in her tone, "Madam, do you buy a match?"
The middle-aged woman who was questioned quickly noticed that as the matches appeared, the terrifying shadows faded away in an instant.
A buying impulse emanates from it.
But just as she was about to speak, Maisie's last reminder emerged.
The horror thriller once again occupied her heart.
She didn't even dare to answer, but just shook her head wildly.
The girl's face immediately showed a heartbreaking look of disappointment. She looked at the strong young man with a glimmer of hope and asked, "Sir, do you buy a match?"
The young man who had already received the prompt shook his head quickly.
The other three people followed.
The five people refused one after another, and the loss emitted by the little girl made them feel guilty in their hearts, gnawing on their hearts like poisonous snakes.
The middle-aged woman who first refused among them looked at the black snowflakes falling on the girl's long blonde hair. Her extremely strong motherhood occupied her body. She blurted out uncontrollably and asked, "I buy..."
call!
The first match in the girl's hand was extinguished.
As the last bit of light disappeared, a rotten and ferocious face suddenly shone in their eyes.
All five were stunned.
Unprecedented fear and thriller are about to freeze their souls.
