Jin Banwei's eyelids seemed to be glued together by some liquid, her limbs were slightly stiff, and her palms were icy cold, as if a silver needle covered with frost was piercing her body through her palms again and again. In a daze, she could hear the low, hoarse sound of a snake spitting out its tongue: "Hiss, hiss, hiss..."
A cold touch fell on her cheek, and Jin Banwei broke out in a cold sweat and suddenly opened her eyes.
In the dim space, Jin Banwei's gaze met a pair of gray eyes.
Snake! It's a snake!
However, this snake was different from any snake Jin Banwei had seen before. Its scales were shiny black, and there were clouds of black mist around its body. It was sitting cross-legged in front of Jin Banwei, sticking its forked tongue out at her. Feeling the black snake approaching, Jin Banwei sat up abruptly and took two steps back. She heard a sound of bones cracking, and with the sound, the coldness on her body was somewhat dispelled.
Jin Banwei looked at the big snake with a wary look on her face, and secretly glanced at the surrounding environment. At this moment, she was lying on a big bed. There were dark marks on the pink and white sheets, which gave off a pungent and unpleasant smell, which seemed to be dried blood.
The layout of the room was somewhat unfamiliar, even a little weird. The walls were painted pink, and there was no light in the room. There were only a few quaint oil lamps. The oil had burned out, leaving only the moonlight coming in from the window to illuminate the room.
The head and foot of the bed were filled with soft-looking stuffed toys, all covered in varying degrees of dust. The furniture in the room was also covered with a thin layer of dust, and it looked like no one had lived in the room for a long time.
Jin Banwei's memory was still stuck on a truck crashing towards her, but when she woke up she was not in a hospital or the underworld, but a room full of unfamiliar things, with a strange snake in front of her.
The snake's scarlet eyes were staring straight at Jin Banwei, taking in all the changes in her expression. The dark color in its eyes became even darker. She opened her mouth slightly and uttered human words: "Who are you?"
The voice was a little hoarse and dull, but you could still tell it was a woman's voice.
A talking snake?
Everything in front of her was so strange that it was beyond Jin Banwei's twenty years of cognition. Before Jin Banwei could answer the female snake, the sky outside the window turned white. The moment the early morning light fell into the room, the female snake disappeared.
Jin Banwei turned her head stiffly and pinched her wrist hard before she was sure that everything that had just happened was not an illusion.
After the female snake left, the room became quiet, so quiet that only the sound of heartbeats could be heard.
"Bang, bang, bang..." one heartbeat after another, without any gaps. The overlapping and intertwined heartbeats were definitely not something she could produce alone.
There are other living creatures in this seemingly empty room!
The sweat oozing from Jin Banwei's palms soaked a large area of her clothes. Her breathing became tense. Her sensitive ears searched for the heartbeat that did not belong to her. Her eyes moved slightly and just happened to meet a touch of crimson.
The stuffed toys in the dark corner seemed to come alive. Their eyeballs were bright red and moved stiffly. But as Jin Banwei looked, the eyeballs of the stuffed toys moved faster and faster, as if they were trying to break free from their bodies. Their hair also gradually changed color, and the bright red permeated every hair.
It's like a horror game!
In just one minute, Jin Banwei's back was covered in cold sweat.
When the female snake questioned her just now, where did the cold mechanical voice in her mind that reminded her come from?
While Jin Banwei was deep in thought, a strange sound rang out above her head: "Dong Dong Dong..."
Jin Banwei looked up suddenly and saw a piece of the ceiling had sunk. Looking closely, it seemed like there was a person hiding there. Her palms were pounding the wall. As her palms fell, a bloody handprint appeared on the ceiling. The frequency of the knocking became higher and higher, and there were more and more bloody handprints. It seemed as if she would break free in the next moment.
Jin Banwei swallowed hard, feeling a bitter taste in her throat.
She has to get out of here!
Jin Banwei no longer had the heart to think about where she was. The most important thing right now was to leave. This was by no means a quiet place. Whether it was the snake that could speak human language, the dolls placed in the corner, or the unusual movements of the ceiling, all made Jin Banwei feel the unknown danger.
Jin Banwei moved her hands and feet with difficulty, only to hear a "click" sound.
The bones in her hand seemed to be broken.
Jin Banwei had just noticed that her body was incredibly stiff, and now the bones of her hands broke when she moved slightly. This didn't look like a soft body with flesh and blood at all.
It hurts! It hurts so much!
Jin Banwei wanted to cry because of the pain, but no tears came from her dry eyes.
Due to the broken bones in her hand, Jin Banwei did not dare to act rashly, but she could not stay here and let the horrible atmosphere envelop her. At this moment, a mechanical voice sounded in her mind.
[Ding, the system is successfully bound, the good fate system 0405 will serve you, and you will have the opportunity to continue your life in another world. ]
[Ding, the host has successfully traveled through the book, and is rewarded with a Good Wife Experience Card! ]
…
"You..." Jin Banwei finally made a sound, her voice was very hoarse and unpleasant, and that one word almost drained all her strength. The opening and closing of her mouth was like a pair of invisible hands forcibly prying open her throat, and the tearing pain made Jin Banwei almost instinctively reach out her hand to cover her throat.
But the pain only lasted for a moment.
It was as if Jin Banwei had accidentally touched a switch. After the pain subsided, Jin Banwei was not only able to make normal sounds, but also had an extra memory in her mind.
She was in a book.
The car accident ended Jin Banwei's life, and her soul was brought into the book by the Shanyuan system.
The original book is a supernatural story with a female protagonist. The heroine Guan Jiyue's family has been ghost hunters for generations. Because her parents were killed by evil spirits, she firmly believes that all evil spirits that stay in the world are evil. There is no love line in the book. In the early stage, the heroine has always been very cruel to ghosts. Almost no matter whether the ghosts are good or bad, as long as the ghosts that stay in the world of the living will be dispersed by the heroine. Until later, she met a mother and daughter ghost who died in childbirth. With the help of her aunt, her attitude towards ghosts began to change slowly. In the end, she let go of the knot of her parents' tragic death and the ending came.
The original owner was an early cannon fodder in the book.
Not only the original owner, but also the female snake just now, they are all tools to pave the way for the early plot and enhance the plump heroine's hatred towards ghosts.
That female snake was not a ghost, but a nightmare.
Nightmares are actually born from souls, but not only do they have to die tragically to be born, they also have to absorb the resentment of at least hundreds of ghosts. Therefore, the birth of nightmares is often accompanied by tragic incidents of family annihilation or even evil deeds such as village massacres. Also, because the conditions for the birth of nightmares are harsh, the abilities of nightmares are stronger than those of ordinary ghosts from the moment they are born.
They are not born afraid of sunlight, and as they practice, they even look no different from ordinary people.
However, the nightmare that was haunting the original owner seemed to have a problem with its birthplace. Although she was powerful, she was very afraid of the sunlight and could only hide during the day, so she fled at dawn just now.
Powerful nightmares also have some special abilities, and this nightmare's ability is to enter dreams. Dreams can become her means of attacking people, and she can also use dreams to escape when encountering danger.
The original owner died in the dream created by Nightmare.
The book does not explain why the Nightmare targeted the original owner, but the Nightmare's actions are definitely not simply massacres.
According to the plot in the book, the original owner was an orphan and had some character flaws so he didn't have many friends, so his body was never found.
After killing the original owner, the nightmare did not eat the original owner like those man-eating ghosts, but trapped the original owner's soul in its body. It also captured a large number of ghosts and trapped them in the room, using the yin energy on their bodies to nourish the original owner's body, and using their soul power to nourish the original owner's soul. This allowed the original owner's body to remain intact and his soul to remain indestructible.
However, because of this, one month after the original owner's death, his soul was nourished by the yin energy and turned evil. He was trapped in the flesh for a long time. The soul and body merged again, and he eventually turned into a zombie. His autonomous consciousness became shallow, and he began to thirst for blood. In the end, he could not control that desire, and was discovered by the heroine of the original book while he was out hunting.
At that time, the heroine hated evil spirits so much that she risked her life without asking the reason, and directly caused thunder from the sky to kill the nightmare and the original owner.
What is different from the book is that the original owner encountered a system, which allowed the original owner to escape from his body and reincarnate again, and the original owner left his body and identity to Jin Banwei.
From the perspective of the heroine, the original owner was a zombie who should be killed, but from the perspective of the original owner, she was just a poor person targeted by the nightmare, and she had no say in what happened after her death. It would be too cruel to let her soul fly away, and it was a good thing that the system gave her a chance to reincarnate.
So, the people trapped in the ceiling and the doll are ghosts!
Jin Banwei sat stiffly on the blood-stained sheets, her heart beating with the knocking sounds, and the bloody handprints almost made her breathless. She suddenly lowered her eyes, but her eyes subconsciously glanced at the corner. Those stuffed toys became more hideous and terrifying. She was just an ordinary person, and it was really hard for her to adapt to such an exciting place.
A crisp sound rang in her ears, and along with the sound Jin Banwei found that her hand bones were connected. Jin Banwei could feel the fusion of her body, and her body slowly softened.
Jin Banwei mustered up all her strength and jumped up from the bed, quickly moving towards the window.
It was already bright outside, and the warm light fell on her body. Jin Banwei felt more comfortable, and the cold feeling in her body was slowly decreasing.
Her eyes scanned the room and slowly focused on the door. The door was closed. The lighting in this room was not very good. The window was a bit small, and the space that could be illuminated was very limited. The door was in the corner and was blocked by the wardrobe. It was frighteningly dark in there.
Jin Banwei glanced out the window. She was on a fairly high floor and she didn't have the courage to jump out of the window and escape.
At this moment, Jin Banwei felt like she had fallen into hell. The only escape door was shrouded in black fog. She had to think twice before even approaching it. What if there was an even more terrifying hell on earth hidden behind the door? What should she do?
It is certainly a good thing to live again. She only lived to be twenty years old in her previous life and it was not enough for her.
But this place of rebirth is obviously not a good one.
According to the plot, the nightmare will come again at night. Although no one knows why the nightmare targeted the original owner, its purpose seems to be to keep the original owner by her side. If she finds out that the soul in her body has been replaced, she will have no way out and may even be eaten by the angry nightmare.
Jin Banwei doesn't have the same means as the heroine. She can't even deal with ghosts, let alone nightmares.
She had also watched some horror movies, and the images of ghosts eating people emerged in her mind. Just thinking about it made Jin Banwei feel horrified.
She is still very afraid of pain.
"How about asking the heroine for help?" Jin Banwei had new expectations in her heart. In the original book, the heroine often appeared in the supernatural forum. She found her mobile phone and posted on the forum to ask for help. Maybe the heroine would come to her on her own initiative.
As soon as Jin Banwei had this idea, the system poured cold water on her.
[Warning, warning, the host's body has not yet completely merged. It will take at least seven days for the fusion to take place. The host's heart rate is abnormal and his body temperature is lower than that of a normal person. If you ask the heroine for help now, you may be killed by the heroine as a zombie.]
Seven days!
If she couldn't think of a solution, not to mention the nightmare, even the ghosts in the house wouldn't let her live for seven days.
Jin Banwei pinched her palms, forcing herself to calm down. She asked the system as calmly as possible: "Don't I have any novice gift packs?"
[The binding of the Good Karma System does not require any additional conditions. There is no mission and the host will not be wiped out for special reasons. However, the Good Karma System can randomly draw prizes based on the Good Karma value. Prizes are randomly distributed, which can accelerate the host's adaptation to the new world. ]
When it came to the chance to draw a lottery, Jin Banwei finally had hope. She clenched her fists excitedly: "Let me draw a lottery!"
As Jin Banwei's voice fell, a light curtain appeared in front of Jin Banwei. On the light curtain was a huge turntable with only a red pointer on it. The rest was blank, and the good karma value of 0 was clearly written in the middle of the turntable.
Jin Banwei had a bad feeling. She reached out and clicked the turntable on the light curtain. As the turntable started to turn, a line of words popped up on the light curtain.
[We are sorry. The minimum number of points for the primary lottery in the Good Karma system is two points. Your Good Karma points are not enough, so you cannot participate in the lottery.]
Why does the lottery have to start at 2 o'clock!
However, her good karma value is 0. Even if the minimum draw amount is lowered, she cannot draw a prize unless she can get it for free. But it is obvious that the system will not let her get it for free. Jin Banwei felt a little disappointed.
Although she felt disappointed, Jin Banwei still asked the system seriously: "How can I gain the good karma value?"
[Of course, it is to be a good person and do good things, but because it is a supernatural story, the host can only establish a good relationship with ghosts or monsters and make them grateful to the host. The higher the degree of gratitude, the more good relationship points will be. ]
Jin Banwei understood, but she had no ability at all, so what could she do to help the ghost?
The best thing she could do was probably let these ghosts eat her.
Jin Banwei didn't give up and clicked the turntable again, but still got the message that no prize could be drawn.
Her gaze gradually moved upwards and landed on the prop frame above the turntable. Her fingertips rubbed the prop frame, and there was only a black and gold card inside.
Jin Banwei finally remembered the good wife experience film given by the system at the beginning. She reached out and clicked the props, and a black and gold card appeared in her palm. After looking at it carefully, Jin Banwei found that there was a set of gold-edged wedding dress printed on the card, and the word "good wife" was written in the center of the card.
Her fingertips trembled slightly as she brushed the words "virtuous wife" on the card and chuckled, "Can a wife be given as a gift?"
