AWB Chapter 142 Japanese Horror
Chapter 142 Japanese Horror
Videotapes are just text descriptions, and without strong writing skills, it is difficult to make the text present the immersive effect of film and television.
One situation is that even if there is a good inspiration, the written description is unsatisfactory, making people feel that it is tasteless and a pity to throw it away.
Another situation is excessive description. Even if the long passages are described quite gorgeously, readers will feel tired of reading and even feel a little distracted.
But Li Wenshu controlled the degree of description very well, using the simplest words to describe the most terrifying scenes. The system even seemed to be able to feel the jamming and weirdness of the videotape from the pauses in the text.
From the text description, one can feel the absurdity and weirdness of the videotape the protagonist saw.
It has the flavor of the uncanny valley effect of words.
The system actually couldn’t tell what kind of horror this was, it just felt different from the previous horrors, and it couldn’t tell which one was more terrifying and which one was less terrifying.
The degree of horror may be the same, but the reader's level of fright is increasing day by day.
Every time I am immersed in a different story, and every day I am scared to death by different ghosts.
[Ahhhhh——here comes another——another female ghost——this one can appear on the same list as the Pen Fairy!!!]
[Oh my god, Pai Gu Jing's writing is so immersive that I feel like the ghost is about to crawl out when I read it.]
[As a photographer, I can imagine the scenes of the videotape just by looking at the text. Sometimes, having too much imagination is not a good thing.]
[Fuck, fuck, this ghost can't be killed. If it weren't for my great-grandmother, it would be useless even if those people found the ghost's corpse.]
[Where did she crawl out from? ? ? A little girl who loved watching TV fell to the ground. ]
[This video is really, even as a reader with a God's perspective, I get chills watching the description. How could those people have the curiosity to watch it? I would have run away halfway through.]
[Who knows? When I saw the movie The Ring, my cell phone just happened to ring. I didn’t dare to answer the call! ! ! ]
[I wanted to move the TV downstairs and throw it away overnight. Damn me, I was afraid of the same thing as a ghost, but I continued to watch it. If this continues, I will throw away all the things in my house. ]
[A metaphysics lover, let me report that this story and the previous ones seem to have a lot of metaphysical knowledge, some of which I have seen in books, and some of which I have not, but the author has integrated them into the story, making me feel that they seem to make sense. I would like to ask whether these knowledge points are true or made up by the author? ]
[Metaphysics? Does that mean fortune-telling? That bone-shaking girl can tell fortunes. I'm sure she knows something unknown to ordinary people about the three murders she predicted earlier.]
[I have also studied metaphysics. I delved into it when I was interested. I feel that those knowledge points, although not 100% true, should be 30 to 40% from some teaching books. The author should have studied metaphysics books carefully before writing. I have to say that he is very serious about his work and studied very carefully. Some knowledge points cannot be summarized without careful study.]
[I caught a big one when I first started following a novel author. Although she is a bit of a jerk sometimes, she updates a lot every day, constantly, and starts new books seamlessly. I will spoil her for the rest of my life. ]
[Since some people in the comment section said that metaphysical knowledge is real, then the Feng Shui for making money also makes some sense (my eyes light up)]
[Please close the country's borders and don't let this Sadako come across the ocean. ]
[Can she still crawl out of the TV? ? ? If I accidentally saw this videotape and received this call, how could I survive? There is no Luo Xunnan in reality. ]
[The above poster, it seems that there is no Sadako in reality... I don't think there is... This ghost can't be realistic...]
[If I accidentally watched the videotape, and I summoned the Pen Fairy on the spot, could she help me beat Sadako back? Although the Pen Fairy is not a good ghost, she and I are from the same country after all, can we resist foreign forces together? It doesn't matter if she beats Sadako first and then me. I would rather die in the hands of the Pen Fairy sister "crying". ]
[The Pen Fairy vs. Sadako? ? ? ]
【…】
At the same time, the first scream of the night came from the Tang family.
What followed was a series of screams.
Tang Yu was sitting on the sofa watching TV and was frightened by the scream. Before he could recover, several more screams came from upstairs, each one louder and sharper than the last.
But it sounded like men were screaming.
Tang Yu stood at the stairs holding the remote control and looked up, "What the hell is going on so late at night?"
Grandpa Tang was holding a cane, and looked like an old man with unsteady legs and feet, but he ran faster than anyone else. Tang Mingxi behind him had snot and tears in his eyes, and his sobs were filled with a hint of fear and despair.
Tang Yu caught Grandpa Tang who was running and panting.
He looked at his younger brother behind him and said, "Tang Mingxi, what are you doing? Why are you making trouble with grandpa so late at night?"
Tang Mingxi opened his mouth and mumbled for a long time without being able to make any clear words.
He was dancing with joy, but his eyes suddenly widened when he saw the TV playing something, and he pointed at it with a trembling voice.
"Sister, sister, please turn off the TV, turn off the TV!"
Grandpa Tang turned around and was also very scared. He grabbed the remote control from Tang Yu's hand and pressed the power off button.
When the TV screen went black, the grandfather and grandson breathed a sigh of relief and almost collapsed to the ground, even though the news was playing on TV.
They were immersed in the story just now, the fear in their hearts had not yet dissipated, and they were particularly troubled by some key things mentioned in the novel.
Tang Yu raised an eyebrow and said, "You are not scared by the novel again, are you? I am not saying anything bad about you, but if you are so scared, why don't you do it at night? Is it difficult to resist reading the sequel?"
Tang Mingxi nodded seriously, "It's difficult, very difficult. Once you start watching, you can't stop."
Tang Yu laughed and said, "I simply won't watch something that I know is scary. I still have some self-control. Otherwise, how do you think your sister built such a big business? It's all based on wisdom. It won't work without extraordinary self-control."
Tang Yu knew early on that his grandfather and brother were obsessed with a novel, or to be more precise, the novel of the same author.
She was curious at first, but when she heard that both books were horror genres, she decided not to read them. She couldn't completely avoid being afraid of unknown things, and in order to avoid being frightened later, she simply stifled her curiosity at the beginning.
If you don't watch it, there won't be so many things.
Although it's quite interesting to see the grandfather and grandson reading novels every day.
Tang Mingxi said: "If you really read it, even if you just read the introduction, you wouldn't be able to say this."
He spoke with a rather proud tone, as if he was the one who had accomplished this. "How many people with strong self-control have fallen for my sweet and sour pork ribs."
