Run
"…She is such a kind person. She said that for the time being, only she, her sick daughter, and a big hunting dog were at home. She would send us out after the snowstorm stops."
Lan Qing read the words in the diary, "We can be saved, that's great. Thank you so much. The hostess's soup is so delicious."
The diary ends here, and I don’t know whether the other 12 travelers also kept diaries.
[Is the woman in the diary a witch? She made soup out of the thirteen travelers... and the diary also mentioned thick soup. ]
[However, the tone of the witch soup recipe is more like that of a little girl, so it may also be the woman's daughter.]
[If this wasn't a supernatural story, I would think this mother and daughter were too careless. With only two people and a dog at home, how dare they entertain an unidentified tour group? ]
The barrage of comments made random guesses that the records in this diary were full of doubts and were not as simple as they seemed.
There were thirteen people in the tour group that year. One of them is already lying here. So what about the remaining twelve?
Most likely, they would not be able to recover, and they might have already become corpses. So Lan Qing suggested that they search inside and outside the villa to see if there were any remaining corpses.
The walls inside the villa were checked by everyone, but there seemed to be nothing abnormal.
The room where the female traveler is buried is very special. It is on the second floor and seems to have originally been a little girl's room. It is decorated in pink and has a princess bed - it is very likely that it originally belonged to the hostess's daughter.
There are also many medicine bottles from more than 30 years ago in the drawers of the room. Judging from the clothes in the closet, its owner is less than 150cm tall and is most likely underage.
Nothing could be found inside the villa, so everyone came to the yard outside the villa. They could vaguely see that there were plants planted here before, but now there was only a wasteland covered with snow.
There were some trial participants who knew a little about geology and carried a special shovel with them, which allowed them to dig up the soil and determine what was inside.
Ao Qingxue outside the plot and the heroine inside the plot both noticed this detail. Ao Qingxue said, "Hey, the props of this trialist are not in the villa, right?"
[No, I'm sure. I've always paid attention to the details.]
[Did he bring it himself? He is an old hand, and I seem to have seen other old hands with their own tools, and one of them seemed to have a gun on his waist.]
[But the newcomers like the heroine have nothing but clothes to cover their bodies. Is it true that only veterans can choose to carry them? Then the heroine can also carry weapons in the future! ]
The worldview of "Infinite Heartbeat" seems to unfold little by little before the audience's eyes, and the icebergs under the water gradually emerge. This feeling of unraveling the mystery from point to surface is addictive.
"How are you going to spend tonight?" The general asked this question as night fell.
Everyone avoided this topic throughout the day. Apart from anything else, no one would dare to live in the room where the body was found in the wall.
Lan Qing simply said, "Let's choose someone we can trust to live in the same room with. How about I stay with you?"
She guessed that some of those veterans knew each other and might have experienced several worlds together. As expected, as soon as she made the suggestion, several veterans showed signs of interest.
"Okay," the general said, "but I'd like to go with that girl. What do you think?"
She was referring to the driver.
Ao Qingxue interjected outside the plot: "The general is trying hard to imitate the way modern people talk. It's so cute..."
The comments were [+1], and Lan Qing nodded in the video: "Okay. Then the three of us will sleep in one room."
The driver was overjoyed. She could have died tonight. Originally, no one was willing to be with her, but now someone took the initiative to ask for her help. She was very grateful.
Seeing that it was getting dark, everyone discussed going back. Unlike before, after two days, everyone had obviously begun to gather in groups of three or four, with different expressions.
[I'm already getting nervous, progress bar, hold on! ]
[Damn it, this episode is almost over, how can I watch it so fast QAQ]
[Will someone die again tonight? I feel like there will be a major development in the next episode! The two protagonists live with the driver, so will we be able to see what is killing people? ]
At this moment, the veteran digger suddenly said, "I found something!"
Everyone gathered around, and the veteran dug a few more shovels. What he dug out was a completely decayed male skeleton, with the upper body exposed in the mud. The man was wearing a traveler's jacket.
There was a piece of plastic paper clenched in Bai Gu's palm, which did not rot with time. Lan Qing pulled it out. Ao Qingxue was extremely nervous and stared at the paper ball intently.
At this moment, there are only a few seconds left in the progress bar. After the plastic paper is unfolded, you can see a sentence scratched on it with a sharp object -
“They're fucking scary!
RUN!"
This sentence was like a stamp, deeply imprinted on everyone's retina, as if the corpse from thirty years ago was saying "run" to everyone today. It became the last shot of this episode.
Then, the screen went dark, but the number of comments did not decrease but increased.
[Ahhh! What a break! The sentence was, "They are so scary, run away?" Hiss, I felt a chill on my back...]
[Is it confirmed that there is something wrong with the hostess? Did this person escape from the witch's clutches with his companions? In the end, he failed to escape and was caught again...]
[This kind of short speech is actually more frightening than a long article, but I really want to see the sequel! ]
Ao Qingxue got goosebumps on her back. The amount of information in this episode was an explosion. She lamented, "It's going to take another six days to see the next episode. It's too hard to bear!"
Blue River Moon.
Shang Jingyan held the rabbit in his arms, staring at it in silence for a while, then looked at Pei Yi who was standing beside him. He seemed calm on the surface, but it took him a long time to notice Shang Jingyan's gaze, and he was stunned: "Huh?... Sorry! My rabbit."
He hurriedly picked up the Angora rabbit, but the latter grabbed the clothes on Shang Jingyan's arm with its front legs and seemed unwilling to go back.
The spiritual body is a very magical thing, which can be between reality and illusion. Like at this moment, it is touchable to Shang Jingyan.
Pei Yi tried to pull the rabbit twice but failed, so Shang Jingyan took the rabbit back and said, "It's okay to let it stay with me."
She said mischievously, "Manager Pei, you can also pull me."
Pei Yi: “…”
He put his finger to his lips, coughed, and looked away, "Well, then I'm not such a coward."
Next, the NPCs saw two young men walking through the horrific scene. The one walking in front was as leisurely as if he was at home, rubbing a rabbit in his hands.
NPC: “?”
Suddenly I feel so unfulfilled!
Pei Yi seemed to be infected by Shang Jingyan's calmness, and walked through the entire ghost school with strength. But after coming out, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, holding onto the beverage vending machine, his face a little pale.
"...You said you wanted to try to treat my externalization disorder. Is that true?" After a moment, he straightened up and confirmed.
Shang Jingyan had just told Pei Yi about this while walking in the haunted house as if chatting with family, and the latter seemed to have just come back to his senses.
"That's right." She said, "The reason why I can cooperate with Su's is because I cured Mr. Wei's illness."
Pei Yi's eyes widened slightly. Obviously, he had also heard about Su's affairs.
Throwing out the Su family, Shang Jingyan's words seemed much more convincing, and Pei Yi followed her back home. In fact, Shang Jingyan felt that Pei Yi might not even need to be persuaded, and would be a guinea pig.
"Aren't you afraid that I'm practicing medicine without a license?" Shang Jingyan instructed Pei Yi to lie in the mental connection device - this was also sponsored by Su Tong. Although she didn't need it, the device was just right to hide her specialness - and half-jokingly said, "Maybe when you wake up, you'll find that I cut your kidneys."
Pei Yi said seriously: "That's great, I'll make you a plate of stir-fried kidneys."
Shang Jingyan laughed: "I dare not eat this!"
Pei Yi lay in the seat and picked up the helmet.
"...Will I also have mental images?"
Before turning on the instrument, he suddenly asked a little unconfidently.
He has been diagnosed with externalization disorder ever since he could remember. He has never experienced the feeling of a spiritual body traveling through the star network, never played a virtual holographic game, and certainly never visualized his own spiritual world.
In this era, he is almost half disabled.
Shang Jingyan noticed his trepidation and paused. She couldn't have anticipated this question, so she just said, "You'll know if you try it."
Pei Yi smiled and said, "Nothing, I just asked. I used to care about these things, but now I don't. I remember when I was a kid, my classmates were discussing how fun the new holographic game was. I had never played it, but I didn't want to be left out of the conversation or be seen as different, so I searched on Starnet every day, stayed in the game forum to watch other people's discussions, and then went to school the next day to talk about it..."
He shrugged. "This trick wasn't revealed until I was in my teens, because puberty is when kids can see their own mental images, but I can't. There's no point in making it up anymore."
Teenagers talked to each other about their own spiritual worlds, some were dissatisfied, some were content, some complained, some showed off...
But no matter what, they all have it. But Pei Yi can't. He can only see darkness when he closes his eyes.
In fact, theoretically speaking, unless professional equipment is used, others cannot verify whether a person's mental picture is as he says. If Pei Yi makes up a story, it will definitely not be as easy to expose as the experience of playing a holographic game.
But he just felt it was boring and didn't want to make up lies anymore, so he told everyone openly that he had externalizing disorder.
And he has an Angora rabbit to keep him company, which is something no one else can do. How cool is that?
Shang Jingyan said: "If there is, I will copy it so that you can see it with your own eyes."
Pei Yi was stunned for a moment, then a smile spread across his eyes, as if he was relieved: "Okay."
He closed his eyes. Shang Jingyan sat down opposite him, his mental power covering him——
Shang Jingyan regained consciousness in the void.
Like Wei Wenbing's spiritual space, Pei Yi's spiritual picture was filled with darkness as thick as water.
She was standing on a narrow path paved with round pebbles of different sizes and colors, with white fences and shrubs on the side of the road.
These were all inferred by Shang Jingyan. From the outside, most of them were actually swallowed up by the darkness and were difficult to identify.
"It's still a picture from my childhood..." Shang Jingyan stepped out and whispered to himself.
Wei Wenbing contracted the disease later, at least he did not have it when he married his deceased wife, and their offspring Su Tong, who was the result of their genetic combination, was also normal.
Pei Yi started even earlier, and his spiritual picture has never changed since he was a child.
The street lights, signboards, etc. on the cobblestone road are full of the innocence and fun unique to children. The proportions are also the dimensions in a child's eyes. Even the grass on the roadside is in a zigzag shape, like a low fairy tale world.
In the darkness in the distance, a fluffy white rabbit hopped to her feet. Shang Jingyan lowered her head and asked, "Are you here to pick me up?"
She bent down and picked up the rabbit. The rabbit seemed to freeze when she picked it up. Its ears moved shyly, and then it struggled to break free and jumped to the ground.
Every time it jumped forward a few steps, it looked back at her, meaning to show her the way.
"Okay." Shang Jingyan shrugged regretfully, "You don't want to be hugged by me."
Unlike Wei Wenbing, Pei Yi's rabbit looked healthy, but its mental picture was eroded.
Shang Jingyan followed the rabbit to the center of the picture and saw a huge Q-version dessert from a distance. When he got closer, he found that it was a small house.
The door is made of chocolate, the tiles are made of gingerbread, the night light is made of strawberry, and the eaves are covered with icing sugar. It is suspended in the darkness, like... a wandering food house floating in the galaxy.
Shang Jingyan: “…”
Pei Yi is a person who is consistent in his words and deeds.
She deeply suspected that this guy's first set of toys as a child was a children's version of plastic kitchen utensils, and he used mud and dough every day.
Following the same process as last time, Shang Jingyan began to absorb the black mist.
When the thick black fog surrounding the cabin was cleared, the contents underneath were revealed.
"...Ah." Shang Jingyan looked up and sighed softly.
——What appeared in the darkness was the same jellyfish-shaped creature as before, but this one was obviously not alive and was smaller in size.
It floated listlessly in the darkness, and sank as the concentration of the black fog decreased. Only a piece of skin remained of its huge body, and the surface no longer had the colorful patterns. It was dry and white, with some parts damaged, swaying gently like water grass.
Or it is possible that this is just a skin, just like insects and other creatures shed their skin every other stage.
Shang Jingyan only caught a quick glimpse of it last time, but this time he was able to observe its appearance carefully.
Its appearance is not much different from that of a jellyfish. It has a circle of shorter tentacles under the brim, which are as thin as ribbons, and have spiral wavy tissue on the surface. There are three longer tentacles in the center, and the surface is relatively smooth.
Shang Jingyan separated a little light ball to poke it, thinking, is this the difference between Pei Yi and Wei Wenbing's symptoms? The strange creatures on both sides, one is still alive, and the other is molting.
...Maybe more samples are needed to be sure.
Shang Jingyan couldn't bring back such a big thing in its entirety like he did last time, so he cut off a small piece of it and pushed the rest away, letting it drift away with the "water".
She also left a small mark in Pei Yi's mental image, in the shape of Pan's goat head, engraved on the sugar hut, so that she could detect any jellyfish that appeared.
She had also made the same mark when she treated Wei Wenbing previously.
Then she returned to her mental image and placed the tentacles in a new glass jar.
Shang Jingyan: When the two are placed together, they look more like canned pickled jellyfish skin.
-By the way, she can move freely between other people's and her own spiritual world, which feels like switching maps in a game.
Shang Jingyan knew that she had many peculiarities, but she had no one to discuss things with, so she had to figure it out on her own. Hmm... could she really be the chosen one?
Pei Yi woke up slowly, feeling as if something heavy had been removed from his consciousness, and he felt more relaxed than ever before.
Shang Jingyan smiled and held up his chin, projecting the light screen in front of him: "How do you feel? Look, I have created the image of your spirit."
The three episodes of "Infinite Heartbeat" are more captivating than the last, and continue to dominate the list of new dramas in Exile Galaxy, attracting more and more people's attention.
[Recently I keep hearing people mention this dream builder named Shang Jingyan. I just heard that she won the top prize in the entrance examination. It turns out that she has a TV series. Can anyone tell me about it? ]
[Me too, several of my friends are watching it, but I discouraged them when I heard it wasn’t about love. I’m hesitating whether to watch it or not…]
[Infinite Heartbeat, this name sounds dokidoki, I'm curious! ]
Its name is so deceptive that fans can't help laughing when they recommend it.
[I can only say that it is indeed exciting and infinite. You will understand after watching it (dog head).]
[I guarantee your heart rate will soar to 120 after watching this! I’ll lie to you like a puppy. 】
[Hahaha, the people above are all bad guys. I am an honest person. Let me say first that if you want to understand Director Shang’s style, you’d better watch the trailer first and then see if you can accept it...]
As a TV series that will be updated over a long period of time, "Infinite Heartbeat" has its own sub-section in Shang Jingyan's personal forum, just like "Teaching Building No. 18".
Originally it was a discussion place for fans, but after the third episode aired last night, a rather peculiar hot post appeared in the sub-section, with the title: [What and what did you guess? The witch in the blizzard will definitely have a reversal, just wait and see.]
Main post: [As the title says. Shang Jingyan likes to surprise people. Your analysis of "the 13-member tour group was harmed by a witch" is too easy to imagine. Would she be so kind? ]
1L: […From this tone, I can’t tell whether the OP is a fan or a hater. I’ll wait and see from the front row.]
2L: [I searched the ID of the poster "I don't like to eat candy", and the last post was called [The arrangement of Xiaomei's supernatural special ability in "Building 18" is too nonsensical, it is recommended to arrange it in more detail], and it has caused a lot of arguing. I think it is a smear. ]
[Ah! It turned out to be her. This person is so picky. Why did she come to watch "Infinite Heartbeat" again this time? ]
The original poster replied: [No need to wait and see or search, I will tell you directly that I am not a fan, I just watch Shang Jingyan's works. And what kind of nitpicking is that? I am discussing and analyzing the plot in a reasonable way. ]
The tone of "I don't like sweets" seems to be provocative, and the statement is also different from the mainstream speculation in the current forum, which makes people want to reply.
5L: [Since you are so confident, what do you think the truth is? ]
The original poster replied: [How can I see the whole picture now? It’s only three episodes. If it were me, I would definitely set up information gaps. ]
10L: [Haha, you've said so much, you just don't know! Everyone is just guessing, how come you are so sure? ]
The original poster replied: [Then I can actually guess a little. The last sentence is in English, and the reference of "They" is not clear. There is another way of understanding: They are too scary, run away. "They" can be the people in the tour group, and the people he warned are the hostess and daughter of the villa. By the way, who said that the words in the diary must be true? ]
[? It seems to make sense, but it's terrifying when you think about it, damn! ]
[What's the point of this? This is nonsense! The deceased was also a member of the tour group. Why did he think his teammates were scary? ]
[But isn’t the witch a villain? Ahhh, my hair is going to get tangled…]
Because of the author's speculation, the entire page was filled with derivative discussions. What was quite funny was that the author ignored all those who cursed her. Only one person jokingly said, "Author, you are a fan, right? We are not so meticulous..." The author replied immediately:
【I am not a fan of Shang Jingyan! 】
——Under the skin of this person who “doesn’t like sweets”, Hua Feitian is actually sweet.
She has been practicing hide-and-seek on her trumpet lately, but she can't wait for Shang Jingyan to show up. She feels that it's boring to win against others no matter how many times she plays.
So, after watching three episodes of "Infinite Heartbeat", she went to Shang Jingyan's forum out of boredom. At first, she just secretly compared the number of posts and the number of followers of the two people. Later, she found that everyone's discussion was not on the point, and she couldn't bear it anymore, so she posted.
Hua Feitian actually wanted to see other people's ideas, which would help her to deduce the truth of "The Witch of the Blizzard". She had only slept for five hours from last night to now, and spent the rest of the time full of energy, debating with many people in the forum.
Someone threw out the universal provocative phrase "If you can do it, come on," and she became more and more unconvinced, and planned to use the Snowstorm Villa model to create a story next.
Guan Gaoyang, who was standing by, accidentally glanced at her computer interface: "???"
What? Isn't this Shang Jingyan's personal forum? So you stayed up all night browsing her forum?
Guan Gaoyang was so angry that he doubted his life, but he couldn't get angry openly, so he had to be humble and said, "Tiantian, why do you always look at her recently and ignore me... Could you be her fan?"
"I'm not!"
Hua Feitian was like a cat whose tail was stepped on, "I'm just getting to know my opponent, how can this be called being a fan..."
She sat up and prepared to have a good debate with her boyfriend, but suddenly saw a private message pop up on her laptop. She frowned and said to Guan Gaoyang, "Wait a minute and I'll talk to you later."
Guan Gaoyang: “…”
What is this time?
Hua Fei Dessert sent a private message. It was an official account of "Galaxy Wandering Kitchen" - as someone who was keeping an eye on her opponents, she certainly noticed the program team's invitation to Shang Jingyan.
Now, what were they looking for her for?
Lan Heyue and Shang Jingyan are perfecting the idea for the next copy of "Infinite Heartbeat". When they were discussing it with the actors tonight, a bunch of private messages popped up on their brain.
Galaxy Wandering Kitchen (Note: This is not a very reliable invitation, please take a look):
[Director Shang! Director Shang! Our program team has confirmed that a guest will participate. Do you think you are interested? I have invited a guest, and the program can be launched! My mother will also support it! ]
Shang Jingyan paused and replied: [Who? ]
She remembered that she had told Yun Yongxue that if the unreliable Mr. Qin came to invite him, he should refuse first.
The other party replied: [You must know that person, it’s Hua Feitian! ]
Shang Jingyan: “?”
She remembered that Hua Feitian had never been interested in participating in variety shows, so why did she agree to join a team that hadn't even been formed yet? Shang Jingyan couldn't help but ask: [How did you invite her?]
[Hehe, I didn't say much else, I just said that you have some intention to participate in the show, and asked her if she wanted to compete with you. When she heard this, she agreed immediately. ]
Qin Xiao was somewhat pleased with his own rhetoric, and he even gossiped, "Sister Yan, there are rumors that you two don't get along, is that true?"
Shang Jingyan: “…”
Brother, your skills in deception are very much inherited from the skills I used to defraud investors.
