A little school girl who is afraid of ghosts, but the book about her life after the mutation is a horror novel.
Luo Shiqin's novelist DNA moved instantly.
——Isn’t this a sense of contrast?
Contrasting one characteristic with another and applying them to the same target character creates a strong sense of contrast, thereby giving readers an unusual and fresh experience.
Most online novels now emphasize this, after all, it is simple and quick, and can attract readers' attention to a great extent in a short period of time. Even if it is fresh and interesting at the beginning, it will become commonplace and become the majority of assembly line novels.
Luo Shiqin thought that although this could not represent the majority, it did include quite a few novelists.
But horror novels...
Luo Shiqin was shocked.
She had come across this type of novel elements before, such as folk horror, natural disasters, zombie sieges... But just like a good horror movie, the routine of a true horror novel is obviously unsolvable.
There are many horror novels in which the protagonist cannot escape the tragic ending, unless he is the protagonist.
Although at the end of the serialized life book "囍", it is marked "囍·To be continued", it can be seen that Yu Yu is the protagonist of this life book.
Just based on that scene, Luo Shiqin couldn't let her guard down.
This poses a problem for me.
She couldn't help but smile bitterly.
The more experienced the author is, the more likely he is to write horror stories that not only bring visual fear to the readers when they first see them, but also when they calm down and read the books over and over again, they will still be frightened by the words in them - and this is no longer just visual fear, but a chill that comes from the bottom of the heart.
That is to say, 'it's terrifying when you think about it'.
However, careful consideration of horror is a very mysterious thing, which is equivalent to the reader patching himself up.
As you play, you may find that this horror story cannot have a happy ending.
If it was just a story, everyone would just laugh it off. But if you become the protagonist of a horror story——
Luo Shiqin glanced at the ninth-level Ghost-Fearing junior schoolmate who now knew nothing and sighed deeply.
It's difficult.
And judging from the current situation, the mutated life book on Yu Yu's head is more than just terrifying.
'Happiness', 'New Bride'...
Isn't this a typical ghost marriage horror theme? !
Horror element + emotional element, where on earth did you find these two debuffs so accurately? !
Luo Shiqin closed her eyes, feeling anxious again and not knowing where to start.
According to the normal logic of horror novel writing, if the supernatural theme is pulled by the nose, it will easily be ruined, but if it is completely let go, it is estimated that it will be directly abandoned without even progressing the main plot.
Ghost marriage...
Could it be that he was arranging a ghost marriage for Yu Yu?
When she thought of this, she couldn't help but shudder. After all, the horrible customs of China are a special attack on every Chinese.
But fortunately, most of the horror films and horror novels in our country are regular and well-regulated.
Even if it is a ghost marriage, if it has not started yet, then find the source and solve it from the source. If it has already started...
Luo Shiqin sneered.
Then get a divorce!
Anyway, the dead don’t need a 30-day cooling-off period.
Since it was a quick marriage, don't blame her for moving the Civil Affairs Bureau of the underworld to get a quick divorce!
Very good, the character settings from the previous life book can be used again.
Luo Shiqin's thoughts gradually became clear from the initial confusion. She kept tapping on the screen of her mobile phone with her fingers, and finally decided on two main lines.
1. Find the cause of the life book "囍" and find a solution
2. Help Yu Yu survive first
That's right, in addition to the most important exploration of the main storyline of the book of abnormal life, the more important thing at the moment is to help the little school girl survive.
If it was Shi Enle, or Yan Yurong who was a little less courageous, Luo Shiqin wouldn't have to worry so much.
But this is surplus jade!
This happened during the freshman club campus tour last year. He was so frightened that he threw a 1.85-meter-tall gym student dressed as a ghost over his shoulder and made him faint!
College students are very vulnerable. Yu Yu, who is one of the college students who refuses to marry because of fear of ghosts, is even more vulnerable in horror novels with ghost marriage themes.
Luo Shiqin once again browsed the [Table of Contents] and [Comment Section] in "囍".
There is still only one chapter, and perhaps because the horror genre is too unpopular, there are only a few comments in the comment section, and most of them are fixed-word comment punch-ins similar to those of robots.
The [Table of Contents] and [Comment Section] were temporarily unavailable, and she could only capture key information from the main text of the first chapter.
As mentioned before, the first chapter of "囍" has three to four thousand words of text, of which more than a thousand words describe Yu Yu's ordinary daily life during the day.
The first horror-themed scene appears in the evening.
April 26th was a Wednesday, and all sophomores had evening self-study, so Yu Yu was no exception.
[…But maybe because I ate something wrong for dinner today, Yu Yu has some stomachache.
When she came out of the bathroom, she found that everyone in the dormitory had left.
I looked at my phone and saw that there were only ten minutes left until evening self-study started!
Without time to think, Yu Yu grabbed the bag from the table, pushed open the dormitory door, and rushed out without looking back.
But the girl, who was in a hurry, naturally didn't see the flash of red gold-woven fabric in the mirror next to the dormitory door.
The mirror at the door of the dormitory.
Luo Shiqin raised her head and looked towards the door thoughtfully.
This is a wall mirror, which is made of four or five small square mirrors attached to the wall, forming a full-length mirror. However, since the mirror surface is divided, it will look a little uncomfortable when looking in the mirror.
However, this discomfort is infinitely magnified in horror novels.
She stood up and walked slowly to the mirror at the door.
The self in the mirror was slender, with regular features, scattered black hair sticking to the sides of the cheeks, and an expressionless look that looked quite intimidating.
Luo Shiqin adjusted her expression, and the girl in the mirror relaxed her brows a little. She looked a lot gentler than before and no longer so domineering.
The veneer mirror is composed of small square mirrors to form a long plane, but the gaps between them still exist.
They didn’t pay much attention to these things when they looked in the mirror in their dormitory before, but now…
The girl in the mirror had her eyebrows slightly drooped, and her body and the surrounding scene were neatly divided into five equal parts by the gaps in the mirror - just like a piece of prime steak that had already been cut on a chopping board, waiting for the buyer to come and take away one of the pieces.
Luo Shiqin raised her chin. The one eye that was created by the thunderstorm was still a vertical scratch. Perhaps because there was no life book to read within Luo Shiqin's field of vision, the one eye was too lazy to open.
It looks like a vertical striped body that is pursuing non-mainstream.
"Senior!"
A pair of hands reached out from the side of the mirror and gently held her shoulders. Yu Yu came over with a smile: "Hehehe, senior sister, you look so good today!"
The black high-waisted trousers are slim-fitting, not only visually lengthening the body proportions, but also outlining the thin and powerful waistline. The Bohemian-style floral loose short shirt feels smooth and soft, just like the senior sister herself, cool and gentle.
His mind immediately came to the scene in the alley where the senior calmly led them away from what looked like a murder scene. Yu Yu hugged Luo Shiqin and yelled, "Wuwuwu, I am the senior's biggest fan!"
Luo Shiqin rubbed her head with a smile on her lips.
But this smile didn't last for a moment, her eyes moved slightly and glanced at the mirror in front of her -
A woman in a scarlet wedding dress is wearing a red veil embroidered with the word "甸", and the red material is draped loosely over her left shoulder.
At some point, a pair of hands were placed on Luo Shiqin's shoulders in the mirror, and the black nails slowly stretched towards her slender neck. Luo Shiqin could even feel something sharp about to touch the veins in her neck.
In the mirror divided into five equal parts, the girl with a calm face, on the left side is a bride in a wedding dress intending to commit murder, while on the right side, a little school girl is giggling with her eyes closed.
Luo Shiqin: ...6
If she wasn't the one being surrounded, Luo Shiqin would have taken out her cell phone to take a screen saver.
This light, this combination, this atmosphere.
Luo Shiqin's gaze moved to Yu Yu's head in the mirror. The word "囍" written by Li Shu was wriggling and surging like mud. The color of the drooping characters turned from black to light, and was faintly stained with scarlet spots.
In the mirror, the sharp black nails had already touched Luo Shiqin's neck. However, at this moment, the girl's face, which was originally divided by the mirror, remained unchanged, but the vertical line on Luo Shiqin's neck suddenly opened up——
A strange one-eye was staring straight at the girl in the wedding dress in the mirror!
The fingers that were about to pinch the blood vessels froze, and then the ghost bride let out an uncontrollable scream, and the whole ghost "bang" exploded instantly like a balloon pierced by a needle!
“Bang, wow—”
Except for Luo Shiqin, everyone was shocked.
The two junior schoolmates who were originally teasing that Yu Yu was hanging on Senior Luo like a koala suddenly changed their expressions. Shi Enle, relying on his long arms, grabbed the two people standing in front of the mirror with his left and right hands respectively, and pulled them away from the danger zone.
The mirror shattered after the ghost bride screamed and exploded, but to the schoolgirls, there was no sign before the mirror shattered.
Yan Yurong and Shi Enle took a look at the completely shattered mirror on the ground, and then saw a few irregular pieces of mirror that were barely left on the tiles.
"May everything be fine, may everything be fine." Yan Yurong said these two words subconsciously, and then said, "Don't come over. I'll go outside and get a broom to sweep the floor."
The dormitory's toilet tools were all placed in the corridor outside. Yan Yurong carefully jumped over the dangerous area that was broken into pieces, pushed the door open and went to get the cleaning tools.
"Maybe it's because the weather is getting hotter," Shi Enle thought for a moment and guessed, "Maybe the temperature difference between indoors and outdoors is too big? Uneven heating?"
While she was talking, Yan Yurong, who was outside the door, quickly came with tools and swept up the debris.
Some of the mirrors were broken into small pieces, so she had to get a rag and wipe them carefully again - after all, if the glass was not cleaned thoroughly and was carried to other places by unknown feet and cut the skin, it would be painful.
She moved quickly and wiped it clean in just a few strokes.
Yu Yu stood in front of the few remaining broken mirrors on the porcelain tile with a strange look on his face.
"Just now," she hesitated, then spoke carefully, "did you hear any sound?"
Shi Enle: "Ah? Is that the sound of glass breaking? It might be due to the weather."
"No, it's not."
Yu Yu's mind quickly went over what he had just happened to see.
Before the wall mirror was completely shattered, she looked up and vaguely saw a woman wearing a red veil.
Is this an illusion?
Not likely.
Because she heard a scream again when the mirror shattered.
The sound is harsh.
It was as if the mirror attached to the tile exploded because of this scream.
Could it be... that what she just saw was a ghost? !
When this word came into his mind, Yu Yu's expression changed instantly, and he subconsciously raised his head——
In the few remaining broken mirrors on the tiles, countless bluish-white human faces are scattered among the shattered mirror surfaces.
Yu Yu: “——!”
She opened her mouth wide and a scream was about to burst out of her throat!
"Take these away too, and be careful not to get hurt."
A pair of yellow-white work gloves quickly and decisively broke off several pieces of broken mirror from the wall.
Yu Yu maintained his previous posture, his eyes moving slowly, staring dully at Luo Shiqin who was holding the fragments.
As she moved, those pale blue faces were thrown into the trash can.
Luo Shiqin said calmly: "It just so happens that there is some discarded fabric in the dormitory. Let's wrap up these glasses and throw them into the recycling bin downstairs."
Yu Yu:?
There will be another chapter later~
