Under the pale light, there was an empty and cold hall.
There was no trace of the killing that took place here last night, and it was as clean and tidy as if it had never happened.
But even so, the oppressive atmosphere inside made the five people feel nervous.
Especially the sound of knocking on the door from time to time, Sophia was always startled.
"The chef lied to us from the beginning, and said that all the animals here were bitten to death. I think he was deliberately playing tricks on us!" Bailey complained to divert his attention, so that he would not be disturbed by the atmosphere here and his nerves were too tense.
His voice echoed in the space, with an echo.
But as soon as the words fell, the sounds around suddenly became fierce, as if they were trying to break free from the door, and there were sporadic English mixed in the noise.
"Roar... HELP... ME..."
"Woo woo woo... anyone..."
"Kill me! Kill me! Ah ah ah!!!"
As if being dragged into the endless seabed, these sounds made them feel drowned and suffocated like sea water.
Sophia trembled her lips and tried to hide behind Song Nan, looking around: "Yes, what is in there? Could it be a ghost?"
"Ghost, what ghost?" Bailey looked very ugly, and wanted to push up his glasses, but he couldn't control his hands and kept shaking.
"Could it be that the farm that the chef and Mrs. Custer mentioned is not raising animals, but...?"
Song Nan's face was extremely gloomy, and he went forward alone to listen to the door where the sound came from.
Phil and Annie also looked bad, even with their psychological quality, they were horrified by the scene in front of them.
The two also walked to the closed door like Song Nan, and Annie asked a few questions in a low voice, and then there was a more intense knocking sound from inside.
"You, don't want to let them out?" Bailey didn't dare to go forward, but just stood far away at the door, and Sophia also stood there.
"We are all in trouble now. What if we let them out and cause a commotion?"
His words made sense. Even though they thought he was being too selfish, no one else objected.
But they came to the farm to find food. Now that all the food is gone, will they do the same as they did at sea?
Thinking of this, the five of them all looked disgusted.
"There should be something else here besides them. The vegetables that Annie eats look pretty fresh. Let's look for other places to hide food."
Song Nan turned his head away with difficulty, trying his best to ignore the movement in the door behind him.
"Generally, there will be a cellar in such places, and the vegetables may be stored there." Annie proposed another possibility.
No one else had any objections and began to search inside separately.
"Ah! Here, here! There is a door here!"
It was Sophia who found the clue and quickly called the others over.
In the corner near the gate, there was a ground that was slightly darker than the surrounding area, and there was a not-so-obvious keyhole near the wall.
"Did you really find it? You're pretty good." Bailey looked at Sophia in surprise.
Hearing his praise, Sophia lowered her head shyly, but did not take the initiative to approach that place, still following Song Nan.
When Annie saw the keyhole, she thought of the key they had taken from the study before.
They had looked for many rooms, but none of them matched the key. Now seeing the keyhole on the cellar, they immediately connected the two.
Song Nan thought so too. The key had been with her. At this time, she took it out of her pocket and took the initiative to open it.
This place was about one meter long and wide, and it looked like it could only accommodate one person.
Insert the key and turn it, and the sound of unlocking reached the ears of the five people.
Before they could find the handrail to lift the door, they saw that the stone slab suddenly opened automatically, and the sound of the interlaced mechanism covered the subtle footsteps of something.
The open hole looked very dark, and you couldn't see what was underneath. There was only a ladder for people to go up and down.
The smell coming from inside was not pleasant. Song Nan, who was closest, covered his nose and frowned as he looked down.
Seeing that there was no change after the cellar was opened, the others also gathered around. Seeing the narrow passage, silence filled the air among the few people.
Logically speaking, in this situation, the two men should have volunteered to go down first.
But one of them was a selfish lawyer, and the other was a rich second-generation who never cared about the lives of others.
It was impossible to ask them to take the initiative to take risks.
Seeing that the situation was deadlocked, Song Nan frowned and asked Sophia to bring over the kerosene lamp they had just seen.
This kerosene lamp was what they saw on the ground as soon as they entered the door.Although the fuel inside looked small, it should be able to be used several times.
She took out a lighter from her pocket and lit the wick of the kerosene lamp.
Smelling the strange burning smell coming from the wick, Song Nan looked at the lamp strangely.
But before she could think about it, she asked the others to stay away from here. She planned to use the kerosene lamp outside to see what was going on inside.
Song Nan asked the others to step back not for their safety, but so that if something happened, she would have space to hide and avoid being attacked from behind.
It can be said that she did not trust this group of people at all. She did not expect them to help her when she was in danger. As long as they did not take advantage of her, it would be good enough.
Hearing her words, the other four people silently stepped back a few steps and stood in a circle around her.
The air suddenly became quiet.
Song Nan held the wall with one hand and reached into the darkness with the lamp in the other.
Only two meters of light illuminated a small area of the floor of the cellar.
There was nothing there, and it looked like nothing strange.
Just as Song Nan wanted to go in and take a look, the sound of footsteps suddenly came from below.
She was startled and tried to withdraw her hand, but saw a black shadow suddenly rushing towards her from below.
"Ah!"
Song Nan quickly threw the kerosene lamp in her hand over, blocking the black shadow for a moment, and then quickly got up and ran away.
The others were also startled by this sudden change. The black shadow was very fast. It only stopped for a moment and then rushed towards Phil who was closest.
The white-haired young man looked thin, but he was not as panicked as others at this time. Although he was also surprised by the appearance of this monster, he stopped when he saw that the target was himself, and took the opportunity to dodge past when it rushed towards him.
He was very agile, and he also pulled Annie on the way. The two hid on both sides of the corridor and left the monster's sight.
The monster failed to attack twice, and seemed to be enraged. The blood-red muscles exposed without skin seemed to be alive.
Song Nan also hid at the side of the corridor just now, trying to keep his breathing steady and not make too much noise.
Only Sophia and Bailey remained in the hall.
