I examined every inch of the room,especially the walls.
There was no hanging picture!
I secretly let out a sigh of relief.My gaze fell on the wardrobe.My outstretched hand froze in the air.
After a long time,I placed my hand on the cabinet door and shoved it open.At the same time,I jumped back a step.
The man with the greasy hair!
The moment I saw him,I felt an inexplicable sense of joy.
Although he had tricked me into this, in this situation like this,a living person was enough to make me feel a lot more at ease.
The man with the greasy hair had his head hidden among the clothes and was trembling slightly.
I smiled and called out to him,but he didn't respond.So,I reached out and pulled him.He fell directly towards me,and I caught him before I realized what I was doing...
I froze!
I could even hear the sound coming from my throat.
A scream!A horrified scream!
I fumbled to push away the body of the man!
I turned around and ran to the corner like crazy.
The body of the man with the greasy hair was there,but only the body, only the torso and the limbs.There was no head!
Knock...Knock...Knock...
The knocking sound came again,this time from inside the wardrobe.
Soon,a dark object rolled out of the wardrobe and was rolling on the ground.
The head of the man with the greasy hair!
I let out a scream, jumped up,rushed out of the room,and directly ran to the front door.
I wanted to leave!
It didn’t matter where I went,I just didn't want to stay in this house.
But no matter how hard I pulled,the door wouldn't open.I shook the doorknob and even threw myself at the door,but it didn't budge at all.
I cried and shouted the female fortune-teller's name.At this moment,she was the only one that could save me!
It seemed that she heard my call.The door of the master bedroom opened,and the figure of the female fortune-teller appeared.
Along with the sound of her muttering incantations and casting spells,a majestic dragon's roar sounded.
I rushed into the master bedroom regardlessly.Even if it was a dangerous place,I didn't want to stay here alone.
But where was the figure of the female fortune-teller?
There were no signs of a fight either!
The room was neat and tidy,and it even exuded a warm and cozy atmosphere,with a faint fragrance.
In an instant,I felt extremely tired.The tiredness from running up and down the stairs like crazy just now suddenly overwhelmed me.I slid down the wall and sat on the ground,feeling completely weak and breathing heavily.
I felt a bit dazed,and I even had an illusion that there were no fierce ghosts,no human heads,and that everything was just a dream.
Thinking like this,I crawled towards that comfortable big bed and lay down on it,just wanting to have a good sleep.
Suddenly,I turned over and was bumped by something.I reached out and touched it,and I took out a large stack of banknotes.
I looked at the banknotes in my hand and suddenly woke up.I jumped up and looked up at the wall.
On the wall,it wasn't a landscape painting that was hanging,but a wedding photo.To my surprise, the man and the woman in the photo were actually the man with the greasy hair and the female fortune-teller!
I was completely confused!
What was going on?
What was an illusion?
What was real?
I turned around and ran out of the master bedroom.The moment I stepped out of the room,it went dark in front of my eyes,and all the lights in the house went out instantly!
I turned on the flashlight of my phone.The house once again returned to its dilapidated and old appearance.
I looked back,and the master bedroom also became dilapidated.
The only thing that was still brand new was the wedding photo of the man with the greasy hair and the female fortune-teller.
Click...
Click...
Click...
The wedding photo made a knocking sound.Slowly,slowly,the knocking sound turned into a thumping sound...
A chill spread from my back to my face and rushed straight to my head.I turned around and ran towards the door.I opened the door,and there was actually a person standing at the door.
The man with the greasy hair!
He blocked the door,looking at me grimly,and grinned.
I let out a cry ,took a few steps back,glanced at the guest room,and then looked at the man again.
"Who on earth are you..."
I suddenly closed my mouth and swallowed the question that was at the tip of my tongue.I was about to say,"Are you a human or a ghost?"But I didn't dare to ask.I couldn't bear to hear an answer that I couldn't accept.
The man with the greasy hair stood at the door without moving.Under my vigilant gaze,his head tilted and rolled to the ground, and rolled,and rolled...
I heard the sound of my teeth chattering,and my throat itched.I wanted to scream,but I couldn't utter a single sound.
"All... you...brave...soldiers..."
With the cold voice of the female fortune-teller,a dragon's roar sounded,and then,a wild beast-like roar echoed.
I turned my head and saw that the figure of the female fortune-teller had appeared again in the master bedroom.She looked at me and shouted hysterically.
