Chapter 61 (2/2)
All her life, Hua didn't dare to kick the mirror with her feet, so she had to go all the way down the channel between the mirrors. Every time she passes through a mirror, she sees herself. She counted silently, wondering how many mirrors she would pass. When she counted to thirteen, she stopped and stared at her face in the mirror.
This is an old, thin face without any blood color. His face was covered with dense wrinkles, his cheeks were sunken, and his face was close to his cheekbones, like a dried old elm skin.
She had never seen this face, but she knew at a glance that this was herself - what she looked like after death.
……
Xiao Qi followed the landlady and turned two mirrors. He saw the landlady in front stop and call his name. Xiao Qi thought he had found something. He said ”Hey” and was about to go up to see it. Suddenly, the landlady returned and walked past him, as if she couldn't see him.
”Proprietress!” Xiao Qi called twice and found that the proprietress ignored him and wandered around in the mirror like a lost soul.
He didn't know what had happened, so he had to follow. After walking for a while, the landlady seemed to be in a hurry. She broke a mirror with her foot, walked in from the big frame of the fixed mirror, and then turned around and took a picture of him with her mobile phone.
Xiao Qi thought she saw herself and said with a smile, ”landlady, you're really good!”
He admired the boss's courage from the bottom of his heart. At the critical moment, he was domineering. Unfortunately, he was a woman. Otherwise, he must be a big brother. But what happened next made him too frightened to say a word.
The landlady's eyes were straight, as if she had seen a ghost. Xiao Qi didn't know if something had happened to him, so he looked at the landlady across an empty frame.
The landlady took photos of him with her mobile phone, and he also took photos of her with his mobile phone.
The landlady held out her hand as if she were signaling something. He also stretched out his hand to pull the landlady's hand. The moment their palms met, the landlady retracted like an electric shock, then closed her eyes, as if calming her mood.
She took about two breaths and then suddenly opened her eyes. When Xiao Qi saw her eyes glowing like a wolf, he shouted and rushed at him.
He was frightened and subconsciously flashed aside.
He thought the boss's wife jumped over and should fall where he had just stood. However, probably between the two people, the light of the mobile phone was just blocked by the body, so it was dark.
In such a moment, Xiao Qi found that the landlady was gone.
Xiao Qi quickly stood up to look for it, but found that mirrors were everywhere. No matter where he went, all he saw in his eyes were mirrors.
He suddenly realized a terrible thing - the light of his mobile phone was very weak, and he should only see the mirror in front of him. However, what he saw now, none of the mirrors in all directions was dark, and there was a self in each mirror.
”Landlady! Landlady...” Qi shouted anxiously, but he didn't get any response. His voice bounced and echoed among the mirrors, as if he were shouting in every mirror: ”landlady... Landlady...”
He suddenly saw a face that didn't belong to him, flashing in a mirror. When he looked for it carefully, he couldn't find it. When he was about to give up, the face appeared in the light around his eyes.
Xiao Qi was so frightened that he got goose bumps all over his body, and the cold air Zizi drilled in from the sweat pores on his body.
He began to run, trying to get rid of his mysterious face.
I don't know how long I ran. It seems that I have experienced thousands of years. From the mirror, he saw his hair turn white one by one, the wrinkles on his face increase one by one, and his muscles shrink and decay. Finally, in the mirror, he became an air dried rotten corpse running.
But in any case, there was always a mirror in the corner of his eyes, and it was not him.
