Chapter 012: Eat
When her parents heard she wasn't going, they both ran over and looked at Lin Xi with disapproval: "How could you not go? Do you know how much your parents paid for you to go to art class? You're not doing us any justice!"
Although their words were very rude, both ghosts were two meters away from Lin Xi. They stayed at the dining table while Lin Xi sat on the sofa. Looking at their expressions, it was clear that they were just talking and actually had no way to deal with Lin Xi.
Lin Xi slumped on the sofa, looking at them with her head tilted: "I'm not feeling well. I had a stomachache last night. Please ask the teacher for leave for me." Lin Xi was very good at asking for leave. When she was in high school, she often asked for leave with various excuses. The teacher knew that she was not doing her job when she asked for leave, but she still approved her leave.
The teachers at the time had thought and tried to get Linxi back on the right track, but all efforts failed. Who could have imagined that an online romance would transform Linxi into the positive and optimistic child she is today?
I can only say, love
This is what loving the brain is like.
Lin Xi made up an excuse for them, and they really couldn't get her to go with them, so they just took her brother and sister with them and planned to go out. Before leaving, her mother gave Lin Xi a serious instruction: "Mom and Dad are not home, so make some instant noodles for yourself for lunch. If anyone knocks on the door, don't answer, even if it's a neighbor."
Here, the term "neighbors" comes up again. One of the living room rules previously mentioned not disturbing neighbors, and now it's also about not opening the door for them. Neighbors must be scary, or else they wouldn't be mentioned so often, just like maintaining a good sleep schedule.
"I know, I know. Let's go now."
Lin Xi waved her hand impatiently, and the family of four went out directly, leaving the whole house to Lin Xi.
After they left, Lin Xi called Chen Sangning out. Just now, everyone in the family was in the living room, and Lin Xi hadn't let Chen Sangning out, fearing it would trigger the system again. Now that no one was home, and it was just the two of them, there was no way it would trigger, so Lin Xi called Chen Sangning out.
She let Shen Sangning sit in the seat, and she stood up and went to another room. She let Shen Sangning out just because she didn't want Shen Sangning to stay on her all the time. That would be so boring and not good for Shen Sangning's physical and mental health. But she didn't think about letting Shen Sangning accompany her all the time, like a tool.
While the other ghosts were away, Lin Xi wanted to check out the rules of several other rooms in the house, such as the kitchen, study, and brother's bedroom. She wanted to go to the master bedroom, after all, it was one of the most important places in a home, but the door was locked and she couldn't destroy it directly, so she had to give up.
The rules of the kitchen, study, and brother's bedroom are similar to what Lin Xi thought. There is a rule in the study that requires quietness, and the kitchen has many more rules than these small rooms.
【Kitchen Rules:
1. Don’t waste water;
2. The trash can should be cleaned regularly;
3. The kitchen should be kept clean and tidy;
4. The kitchen is mom's battlefield. Do not enter without her permission.
5. Only food can be stored in the refrigerator.
6. There should be no peculiar smell in the kitchen;
7. Children are not allowed to use knives.
This family definitely has a mysophobia, requiring almost every room to be clean and tidy. This rule applies to the study, bedroom, and kitchen. If they're not tidy, it's likely to cause a backlash. Lin Xi was studying ghost stories in the study when a voice suddenly rang out.
Lin Xi had an impression of this sudden voice. It was the same voice when the kind-hearted person reminded her before. This time it was a somewhat old man's voice, and he said, "Don't turn on the TV! The TV is dangerous!"
But she was in the study and hadn't turned on the TV. Lin Xi subconsciously turned around, but didn't see Chen Sang Ning. Her heart skipped a beat, and she realized something was wrong. Chen Sang Ning wasn't by her side. She hurried out of the study, and as soon as she opened the door, she heard the sound of the TV.
Lin Xi gritted his teeth. "Study room, your rule that 'the study room should be kept quiet at all times' does not only require people in the study room to keep quiet, but also means that the study room is so quiet that no sound from outside can be heard, right? !
However, the people in the live broadcast room heard the sound from the TV. In other words, the "quiet" rule of the study room applies to the people in the room and does not block the hearing of the audience in the live broadcast room, who can hear the sound.
When Lin Xi came to the living room, she saw Shen Sang Ning sitting obediently in her seat, with the TV remote control on the coffee table, and at this time, a movie was playing on the TV. There was a sad background music from the TV series, and when she just went out, she heard a woman's scream and a man's hideous laughter. Lin Xi took a look and looked away in an instant.
The TV showed a hideous-looking man brutally dismembering a woman. Lin Xi took a deep breath and tried to turn off the TV remote. She pressed the power button, and the TV went dark the next moment.
Lin Xi breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Shen Sangning. She was about to tell Shen Sangning not to watch TV when she saw Shen Sangning looking aggrieved. Lin Xi immediately realized that it was not Shen Sangning who turned on the TV. Shen Sangning was in a very wrong state now. She had almost no ability to act independently. She would only do what she said and sit on the sofa obediently. How could she turn on the TV by herself?
Moreover, Shen Sangning's eyes looked so aggrieved, obviously feeling that he had wronged her. Before Lin Xi could apologize to Shen Sangning, she heard the TV behind her start up again. The man's hideous laughter was right behind her, but it was more real than before.
Lin Xi's scalp was numb at this moment. She felt that the sound was too real, not the sound of the TV. The sound of the TV was different from the sound in real life. The TV would have a little electric sound and some noisy sounds, which was completely different from the situation in real life.
Lin Xi could tell clearly that the voice was clearly coming from behind her. Lin Xi's body became stiff because she didn't know whether Chen Sang Ning could deal with the ghost that came out of the TV.
This ghost can run into other people's homes through the TV! Isn't that scary enough! And is the person he just brutally killed on TV really a human? What if it's also a ghost? He can kill other ghosts! My wife is weak, pitiful and delicate, how can she be a match for such a ghost!
Lin Xi felt that it was all over, completely over. He was careless and thought that everything would be fine as long as the four ghosts were not at home. He never expected that other ghosts could invade the house.
Her expression changed, because she was facing away from the man with the hideous smile, so she was still looking at her wife. Lin Xi pulled the corner of his mouth, thinking that it would be nice to be with his wife on the last day. But before Lin Xi could react, Shen Sang Ning reached out and pulled Lin Xi into her arms, then gently held Lin Xi's head with one hand and reached forward with the other hand.
After a while, Shen Sangning finally let go of Lin Xi. Lin Xi only felt his wife walking past her. She subconsciously turned her head and followed her. She saw the hideous man who had appeared on TV before. The moment Shen Sangning clenched her five fingers towards him, he was squeezed into a black ball.
Shen Sangning walked over barefoot on the carpet, the hem of her white dress fluttering gently. The ball landed on the floor with a crisp sound. Shen Sangning bent down and retrieved the ball. She turned around and walked over to Lin Xi with the ball.
Shen Sangning raised her hand and pushed it towards Lin Xi's mouth. The black ball was in Shen Sangning's palm.
She was so close to Lin Xi's mouth that if Lin Xi hadn't leaned back a little, her mouth would have touched the black ball. Faintly, Lin Xi could still see the black mist swirling on the surface of the black ball. After staring at it for a while, she could still hear the faint screams of a man coming from the black ball.
Lin Xi didn't know what Shen Sang Ning meant. She was a little reluctant, not wanting to touch the black ball. She had just witnessed how the black ball came from. It was that pervert who had created it! If she touched it with her mouth, what would happen?
Chen Sang Ning didn't know what Lin Xi was doing. She just raised the black ball in her hand and passed it to Lin Xi, saying, "Eat, eat." She looked a little ignorant and cute when she said the repetition of words, but her behavior of asking Lin Xi to eat the black ball was too weird.
It wasn't that Lin Xi didn't trust Chen Sang Ning, it was that this black ball was simply too challenging. Sometimes, Chen Sang Ning was just keen on eating things that Lin Xi disliked, or even found strange. For example, pig brains in hot pot. Chen Sang Ning couldn't stand them at all, even though they were pig brains and many people did enjoy them. She even told her that pig brains tasted like soft tofu.
But Lin Xi still couldn't accept pig brains. She wouldn't force Shen Sangning to not eat pig brains with her, just like Shen Sangning wouldn't force Lin Xi to eat pig brains with her. But Lin Xi would let Shen Sangning eat pig brains last, and she would eat pig brains after she stopped.
Pig brains are definitely the most disgusting food in the world.
However, after today, there will be one more thing added to the list of weird foods that Shen Sangning likes to eat - ghosts.
"I don't want to eat it! If you want to eat it, you can eat it yourself!" Lin Xi used her trump card. Shen Sangning pouted. She probably felt that she was reluctant to eat the delicious food, and now she wanted to give it to Lin Xi, but Lin Xi was not happy.
⑤
Shen Sangning had no choice but to put down her hand, then in front of Lin Xi, she opened her mouth and took a bite of the black ball.
Lin Xi also heard Hei Qiu's screams, which were even more shrill than the screams of the woman he had brutally killed on TV before.
