128 lips
◎Chewing sound◎
At night.
Xiao Zaiyou went to the bathroom to take a shower, getting rid of the fatigue of the whole day.
He had a big argument with the producers during the afternoon meeting. No one understood the point of his insistence on finishing the film. After arguing for a long time, they parted ways unhappily.
"A bunch of short-sighted people!" Xiao Zaiyou clenched his fists, too lazy to deal with other staff members or the news media. He turned off his mobile phone and then lay on his back on the bed, closed his eyes and silently sorted out his emotions.
It will definitely be popular.
As long as we stick to it and finish filming "The Soul" step by step, it will definitely become a hit once it is released.
This is the instruction from the statue. Xiao Zaiyou worships it, nourishes it, and is willing to believe in all its guidance.
“…”
This is already his fourth year of worshipping the statue.
Four years ago, he got this statue from a man by chance. Xiao Zaiyou was originally an atheist and never believed in ghosts and gods, let alone believed that a piece of bronze could help him in any way.
Until he held the statue in his hands——
A sudden wave of emotion began to surge and fill his heart. It was a strong sense of excitement and satisfaction. Although it was just an ugly statue, it had a powerful power that made people feel happy, as if owning it meant owning everything!
Xiao Zaiyou was like a possessed person. He spent a huge sum of money to buy it. He carved his own birth date and time on the statue as the man asked, and fed it with his own blood for a whole year.
The statue brought him huge rewards. Xiao Zaiyou made a blockbuster movie, bought a luxury car, lived in a villa, and almost overnight, he had flowers and applause that he had never received before.
This feeling made him feel as if he was floating in the clouds. He began to have more faith in and respect for the statue. In exchange for more benefits, he was willing to give up everything he had.
But one day, the man suddenly told him that the statue no longer needed his blood.
"It needs fresher blood. It needs to be given new life and a new body with the organs and limbs of babies one after another. If you don't want to lose everything you have now, then think of a way."
"What do you mean?" Xiao Zaiyou asked with a terrified look on his face, "You want me to kill someone?"
The man just smiled and said nothing.
Xiao Zaiyou was silent. He was playing a game with himself in the long silence. On one hand, it was morality, on the other hand, it was desire. Of course, he knew which was more important. Compared with falling from the clouds, a few lives were nothing!
He began to use various means and connections to kidnap, buy, and even pay large sums of money to buy one child after another from black clinics and welfare homes, and brutally kill them to satisfy his own selfish desires.
Every year, the statue needs to be re-gilded and the blood in the body needs to be replaced. When he is not making movies, Xiao Zaiyou is always on the road looking for young children, trying every means to get them and kill them.
Gradually, he no longer had any hesitations when he struck the knife. He completely lost the kindness and compassion that a human being should have. His mind was filled with killing, and his hands were stained with blood.
Perhaps in his dreams at midnight, he had a moment of reflection and guilt, but even if he was given the opportunity to choose again, he would still take this path again and never regret it.
The idol is everything to him.
Xiao Zaiyou opened his eyes and looked at the chandelier above his head with an extremely morbid and paranoid gaze. There was his worship and faith hidden there. As long as the statue was there, everything...
etc.
Xiao Zaiyou widened his eyes and sat up suddenly.
Where's the statue? Why is it gone?
Originally, from the angle where he was lying on his back, he could just see a corner of the statue, but now it was empty, with only a pile of unsightly beads swaying in the wind, and the statue had long disappeared without a trace.
Xiao Zaiyou was stunned, and a terrible guess came to his mind. He got out of bed in a hurry, moved a chair with weak hands, and reached his hand into the chandelier, enduring the scorching heat of the bulb and groping repeatedly.
No, there's nothing in there.
Oh no.
Xiao Zaiyou fell off the chair and sat on the ground gasping for breath. A chill gradually crept up his back. Xiao Zaiyou climbed up using his hands and feet, hurriedly picked up his mobile phone and tried to call the man.
"Beep, beep, beep..." No matter how many times he called, the only response he got was endless busy tones.
The chilly feeling became more and more intense. Although he was in a warm room, Xiao Zaiyou felt that his body was cold and his limbs were frozen stiff.
No matter what, get out first, yes, get out first.
Xiao Zaiyou quickly walked to the door and tried to press the doorknob, but the door seemed to be locked from the outside. No matter how he pushed or pulled it, it didn't move at all.
"whee."
Somewhat abruptly, a sound came from behind, which sounded creepy in the silent and cold night.
“…”
After a fierce psychological struggle, Xiao Zaiyou slowly turned around and looked towards the source of the sound. He saw that the cabinet beside the bed had been pushed open a small gap at some point, and hidden behind the gap were lips shaking up and down.
Xiao Zaiyou took a few steps back, pressed his back against the door, and pressed the door handle even harder, but it was of no use. The door seemed to be integrated with the walls on both sides. No matter how hard he hammered or pushed, he couldn't open it.
When people are extremely fearful, they often develop the courage to fight to the death.
Xiao Zaiyou gasped for breath and finally gave up the idea of trying to escape. He knew he couldn't escape, and no matter what he did, it would be in vain. He raised his head again and stared at the laughing mouths through the crack of the door: "You are here for revenge, right?"
"Want to take revenge on me? Trying to kill me? Don't dream. If I can kill you once, I can kill you a second time. You are all necessary sacrifices on my road to success and my stepping stones! Being able to die for me is the greatest honor in your life!" He picked up the knife under the pillow, raised his foot and walked quickly towards the direction of the wardrobe, and swung the knife hard the moment he opened the wardrobe door.
Nothing was pierced, the lips suddenly disappeared, and the closet was empty, with nothing else except clothes.
Have you left?
Xiao Zaiyou sneered crazily, his eyes darting around until he found those lips on the ceiling again.
"Don't even think about running!" He threw the knife in his hand with force. The sharp blade scratched across the white ceiling, leaving an ugly mark, but still did not hurt his lips at all.
This time, they appeared behind the curtains. Xiao Zaiyou looked over angrily, but the lips disappeared again.
Xiao Zaiyou frantically searched the room for them, and found them in the bathtub, in the drawers, on the murals, and the last time, under the bed.
At this point, the lips completely disappeared, and Xiao Zaiyou searched the entire room but couldn't find any trace of them.
"Do you know how powerful I am?!" Xiao Zaiyou grinned triumphantly. He had defeated those lips, he had gotten rid of them...
"whee."
Before he could think about it, another chuckle reached his ears, and this time, the direction of the laughter was - his back.
Xiao Zaiyou was stunned. After a brief silence, he quickly walked to the mirror and turned to look at his back. Those lips were actually attached to his body, densely packed, one after another, and every lip was laughing. The laughter gradually turned from inaudible to deafening.
Then, the laughter suddenly disappeared, replaced by the desperate sound of chewing.
