Lu Xin’s old house only had six floors.
From a distance, most of the surrounding buildings were relatively tall, so they often blocked the old building.
Even during the day, there was very little light, so the room was always a little dark.
Moreover, because of the crisscrossing roads around the old building, the nearest building was fifty to sixty meters away. It was like a corner of the city, a forgotten existence surrounded by a few winding paths.
Because it was close to the main road and led to a few other residential areas with more people, the street lights were still intact.
At this moment, one could see that from the far end of the path, the street lights were going out one by one.
It was as if there were two monsters that devoured the light, and they were slowly crawling toward the old building from both sides of the path.
Without the lights, the Crimson Moon in the sky above the city was brighter.
Lu Xin nodded and returned to the living room. He sat on the sofa and watched the TV quietly.
Below the old building, the wind started to become a little chaotic, probably because they were at multiple intersections.
The newspapers and plastic bags on the ground were swept up by the wind, flying in the air and then silently shattering.
From a distance, as the street lights went out, it seemed that two invisible energy bodies met in front of the old building.
Ordinary people couldn’t see them. They could only sense their location. When they saw that place, it seemed like the air was slightly distorted. When they saw it, they would subconsciously feel a certain fear of that area.
However, as the Crimson moon’s light fell from the sky, it faintly caused the distorted air to appear a little blurry light and dark.
If these colored blocks were added with imagination, one could draw a picture.
They were a spiritual monster in the shape of a Boston ivy and a fat monster with a human-head necklace around its body.
They appeared out of nowhere and met in front of the old building, looking up at it.
Almost all the windows in this old building were dark. Only one window on the fourth floor had a warm light on.
Thus, the two monsters took different routes and climbed toward the window at the same time.
The Boston ivy-like monster stuck to the wall and started to crawl up.
The fat spiritual monster with a necklace of human heads dragged its fat body and squeezed into the corridor little by little.
When he passed the motorcycle parked in the corridor, the dial of the motorcycle immediately flashed with a piercing red light.
It was a spirit detector installed on the motorcycle.
The strange red light illuminated the dark corridor, making it look dilapidated and bright.
The spiritual monster seemed to have sensed that something was wrong, and its forward crawling movement slowed down slightly.
However, it seemed that its own intelligence was not enough for it to distinguish these, so it slowly crawled forward.
Wherever they passed, the air began to distort and become somewhat oppressive.
Whether it was the rats in the dark corners or the stray cats in the empty houses, they were all frightened and ran away while squeaking.
The big cat held the small cat in its mouth, and the mice bit their tails to form a straight line. They were extremely panicked and ran quickly.
The longer they stayed in the old building, the darker it became.
It was as if it was shrouded in an even thicker darkness.
Only the window on the fourth floor was still lit with warm light.
It seemed to be even more heartwarming.
Slowly, the creeper-like spiritual monster spread on the wall of the old building and extended upward.
It had already passed through all the windows and drowned the entire building.
The last thing left was the window with the light on.
Under the moonlight, dark red tentacles that looked like a group of snakes approached the window from all directions.
They were accumulating power, like running water, ready to flow into the window …
In the corridor, the fat spiritual monster had already climbed up to the fourth floor and was slowly moving its body toward the tightly closed door. A few rays of light were shining through the crack in the door, and it was getting closer and closer.
All the heads on the necklace gloated at his misfortune.
It was also at this moment that a ” Xixi ” laughter suddenly rang out in the air. It sounded like a cute girl was laughing.
“Squeak .
Just as the Boston ivy on the wall was about to extend into the only open window, the window suddenly opened gently. A woman in exquisite clothes, who seemed to have put on light makeup to welcome a guest, appeared at the window.
“What are you waiting for?”
“Why aren’t you coming in yet?” she asked with a reserved and warm smile.
At the same time, in the corridor, when the fat monster with a necklace of human heads heard the girl’s laughter, it saw that the light in front of it suddenly increased because the door in front of it was slowly being pushed open.
The warm light in the room could no longer be turned off, and it suddenly poured into the dark corridor.
However, the light immediately dimmed, and a tall figure seemed to be standing at the door.
The two spiritual monsters ‘movements slowed down slightly..
