Chapter 286 The Clown
They groped in the dim light and found the iron ladder leading to the fifth floor.
The iron ladder had been in disrepair for a long time and made a teeth-grinding creaking sound when climbing up, as if it would break at any time.
Chen Yile walked in front, stepping carefully on each step, feeling extremely nervous.
Finally, they arrived at the fifth floor. The situation on the fifth floor was similar to that on the fourth floor. The windows and doors were covered with thick black fog, making it impossible to see the outside world.
Chen Yile raised his cell phone and, with the dim light, vaguely saw a few figures not far away.
"Huang Xiaofang, call them out." He turned and said to Huang Xiaofang behind him.
Huang Xiaofang took a deep breath and shouted towards the blurry figures, "Song Wen, Li Xiang, where are you? Come out quickly, someone is here to rescue us!"
Just as he finished speaking, there was a sudden sound of rustling footsteps all around, followed by a group of figures emerging from various corners.
Chen Yile took a photo with his mobile phone and was immediately shocked - there were far more than two people coming out, there were seven or eight!
"What's going on?" Chen Yile looked at Huang Xiaofang in surprise. "Are you lying to me? Why are there so many people?"
Huang Xiaofang was also stunned. She quickly waved her hands to explain, "No, Brother Chen, I really don't know! I only know Song Wen and Li Xiang. I don't know the others!"
At this time, two boys walked out from the crowd. They were Song Wen and Li Xiang.
Song Wen scratched his head awkwardly and said, "Brother Chen, these people are from other departments. We know each other and we invited them to come play, but who knew they would arrive so late..."
"You guys..." Chen Yile held his forehead helplessly, feeling a bit overwhelmed.
He originally thought that he only needed to take away four or five people, but now with so many more people around, the situation has become more complicated.
Everyone was eager to leave the building, but Chen Yile hadn't figured out a specific plan yet.
"Okay, okay, don't panic." Chen Yile took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.
He looked around and asked, "Does anyone bring any food or drinks? I'm a little tired, so I need to rest first."
When several students heard his words, they quickly took out the remaining food and water from their backpacks. Some handed him two compressed biscuits, and some handed him a bottle of mineral water.
Chen Yile took it, ate a few bites, and felt a little stronger.
While he was eating, Huang Xiaofang briefly introduced Chen Yile to the others: "This is Brother Chen, a supernatural anchor."
"We usually watch his live streams. This time, I asked him for help on the platform, and I didn't expect him to actually come. If it weren't for him, we might all have died here!"
"Hello, Brother Chen!" After hearing Huang Xiaofang's introduction, several other students came forward to greet him, looking at Chen Yile with awe on their faces.
Although not all of them were paranormal enthusiasts, they were trapped in such a strange building for a few days.
Having witnessed all sorts of strange things with his own eyes, he naturally had more trust and reliance on the prestige of the supernatural anchor.
Chen Yile nodded and forced a smile as a response to their greetings.
At the same time, his mind was working rapidly, thinking of ways to escape.
This strange building is obviously not an ordinary haunted place. There are too many strange things inside. He must find a solution as soon as possible, otherwise these people might be in great danger.
"We have to find a way to break this black fog." He put down the water bottle in his hand, stood up, and looked at the black fog covering the doors and windows.
"Does anyone have a lighter or matches?"
"I have it!" A boy quickly took out a lighter from his pocket and handed it to him.
Chen Yile took the lighter, walked to the window, and tentatively lit the flame close to the black fog.
The black fog seemed to be stimulated and immediately shrank back a few points, and then suddenly expanded as if to swallow the flames.
Chen Yile saw that this method was not feasible. At the same time, he also felt that the intensity of the black fog's yin energy was too strong and that ordinary methods could not deal with it at all.
The fifth floor of the abandoned building was shrouded in thick black fog.
The dim light makes it almost impossible to see the surroundings.
Chen Yile frowned, his expression solemn, and he was secretly thinking about how to deal with the situation.
The students around were terrified, huddled together tightly, and their bodies trembled uncontrollably.
While he was deep in thought, Xiao Yin suddenly raised his hand and said, "Oh, I remembered something. I met a Taoist priest before. He said I was going to have a blood disaster and gave me a talisman."
As she said that, she quickly took it out and gave it to Chen Yile.
Chen Yile took it and looked at it. His face suddenly changed and he said angrily, "This is not a talisman to drive away evil spirits at all. This is a fucking black curse! It will attract evil spirits!"
As he spoke, the talisman suddenly caught fire. Chen Yile hurriedly threw it to the ground.
As the talisman burned, a black mist appeared above it. Everyone else retreated in fear. The black mist seemed to have life, slowly rising and surging.
The students' eyes widened in horror, their faces turned pale, and some even screamed.
Chen Yile also stepped back, his eyes fixed on the black mist.
The black mist eventually formed a clown, but the colors on its face didn't look painted on, as if it had always been that way.
This clown looked extremely strange and terrifying. Although it was short in stature, it gave people a sense of oppression.
He was wearing a tattered black dress covered with dark red stains that looked like dried blood.
Its hair was a mess, sticking up like black flames, flickering eerily in the dim light.
The clown's face was pale, like a piece of white paper, without a trace of blood.
Its eyes were two deep black holes, with red light flashing inside, like burning flames, making people dare not look directly at it.
Its nose is a small triangle, slightly tilted upwards, as if mocking everyone.
The mouth is a large arc, painted with bright red lipstick, and the corners of the mouth are raised upwards, revealing a weird smile.
The clown's face was covered with strange patterns, which looked like they were drawn with black ink, or as if they were naturally growing on its face.
The pattern contains twisted lines, strange symbols and hideous faces, which makes people shudder.
Its ears are pointed and erect, as if listening to the movements around it.
The clown was wearing a pair of black gloves with red patterns embroidered on them, which looked very eerie.
Its fingers are long and pointed, like sharp claws that can easily cut human skin.
The clown slowly twisted his neck, making a "clicking" sound, as if he was a lifeless puppet being manipulated by someone.
Its eyes scanned the people around it, and the red light flickered in the darkness, as if looking for its next prey.
