I nodded. Although I didn't have the confidence in my heart, I wanted to at least give Li Chi's father some hope.
Just as we were talking, we had entered the sanatorium. The entire villa in the sanatorium was dark and damp, which was very different from the environment outside. I just wanted to take a closer look when I suddenly heard a burst of crying...
I was startled and took a few steps back.
The old cat's expression also changed. Dahuang asked: "What is this sound? Who is crying? Li Chi?"
Li Chi's father looked ugly, shook his head and said, "No... this... this is not my son's cry..."
It is daytime now, and it is also afternoon. It is said to be the time when Yang Qi is at its strongest. Although the inside of this villa is very gloomy, after all, it has just passed noon. No matter how gloomy the place is, Yang Qi can still spread...
However, at this moment, such an insidious cry came from the villa. The voice was obviously that of a man, and it was not Li Chi at all...
Cold sweat poured down my face, and my whole body felt like a lightning strike. The old cat saw my abnormal reaction and asked in a low voice: "Lin Yang, do you know who is crying?"
I nodded quietly, of course I know, because I am very familiar with this cry. I have been classmates with Haoran for so many years, and I know his cry very well...
This is Haoran’s cry. There is absolutely no mistake. This is Haoran’s cry!
I whispered: "It's Haoran. He is indeed in this villa. This is Haoran's cry..."
The villa in the nursing home is not too big, which may be related to the economic conditions of Li Chi's family. After entering the villa, there is a long and narrow corridor with only three rooms in the corridor.
The rooms on the first floor are usually occupied by family members, and Li Chi's room is upstairs. However, the crying does not come from upstairs, nor from the first floor, but from the basement...
In this villa, there is a small door at the end of the corridor, and underneath this small door is a basement!
Li Chi's father stared at the small door of the basement. He was a little stunned. He stared blankly at the small door and asked in a low voice: "What should I do? Li Chi's classmate...Haoran's innocent soul is here now."
Hiding in the basement..."
Dahuang also changed his face and said: "Fuck, it's so damn evil. The ghosts of the Wang family are really powerful. It seems that the blood sacrifice array set up by the Wang family in the subway tunnel outside the Baijia Tomb is really useful.
.”
I was a little confused and asked quickly: "How do you say this?"
Dahuang said: "Look... Haoran's physique and destiny could only be an ordinary kid. Under the blood sacrifice formation of the Wang family, he turned into such a ferocious ghost... Lin Yang, let me tell you this.
I have been traveling around the world with Lao Mao for a long time. We have seen a lot of evil ghosts, but I have never seen one come out to scare people in broad daylight... Do you think this Haoran has become more vicious now..."
I was already frightened, but when Dahuang said it, I broke out in cold sweat. I quickly asked: "What should I do? How about we send Haoran away first during the day when the Yang Qi is strong?"
Before Dahuang spoke, the old cat shook his head and said: "No, although we can hear his cry now, we may not be able to catch him. Evil ghosts are very cunning. I guess Haoran will escape immediately when we get to the basement."
"
I frowned, knowing that what Lao Mao said was right, but after all, daytime is a good opportunity. Even if I don’t go during the day, I will inevitably have to face Haoran again at night. I touched the peach wood sword in my hand and said: "How about we go and try
try?"
The old cat nodded helplessly: "Try it."
After saying that, the three of us ignored Li Chi and his father turned pale with fright, and immediately walked towards the small door.
The small door was only about 1.5 meters high and about 1 meter wide. The three of us old men had to bend their waists to get in. As soon as we reached the door, the loud crying inside suddenly stopped.
I touched the dark and cold surface of the small door, holding the mahogany sword tightly in my hand, and asked in a low voice: "Haoran? Haoran?"
But after calling twice, there was no response at all.
Dahuang frowned and asked me: "Lin Yang, what are you doing?"
I said: "I want to call him twice. After all, we are classmates. What if he is willing to leave like this for the sake of his old classmates?"
Dahuang smiled and said: "Lin Yang, you are too naive. Haoran has become a fierce ghost now. Do you know the fierce ghost? He specializes in killing people and has lost his sense. You still want to get close to him?"
"
When I heard this, I seemed to feel that I was indeed a bit stupid, so I simply stopped shouting and pushed the small door hard.
With a push, the small door creaked open. As soon as the door opened, a cool breeze blew out from inside.
There is no air conditioning on the first floor of the villa, so the temperature in the air is actually quite high. But as soon as the small door is opened, a burst of cold air like a refrigerator suddenly blows out, which makes me shiver...
Not only me, but also Lao Mao and Da Huang behind me were very excited.
Dahuang couldn't help but turn around and ask Li Chi's father, who was standing far away: "I said, Uncle Li, have you ever been in this basement? Do you know what is there?"
Li Chi's father was probably a little frightened and he hesitated and said: "No... I haven't been in it. We just rented a villa here. Apart from the first and second floors, we have never been anywhere else...
"
Dahuang saw that he couldn't get an answer from him, so he simply took out the flashlight from his backpack, swung it into the small door, and said, "Come on, let's see for ourselves."
However, at this moment, I suddenly followed the light of Dahuang’s flashlight and saw a face emerging from the basement!
It was a pale and pale face. I couldn't see clearly at just a glance. I couldn't see clearly whether that face was male or female, whether it was big or small. It was just a quick glance. I even doubted that I was...
It's not dazzling.
But seeing a face was so scary that I couldn't help but take a few steps back in fear.
Dahuang saw my strange reaction and asked quickly: "What's wrong, Lin Yang, what did you see?"
I pointed to the deep darkness in the basement and said, "Where your flashlight shone just now... there is... a face!"
Dahuang frowned, got next to me, and shined the flashlight again, but this time he saw nothing. Dahuang forced a smile and said: "Lin Yang, I think you are too nervous and your eyesight is dazzled?"
"
I can only comfort myself in this way. Indeed, rather than actually seeing a face, I am still more willing to believe that I am dazzled.
Dahuang said: "Come on, don't scare yourself. With Master and I here, ordinary ghosts can't hurt you. Even if Haoran comes in person, we have a way to subdue him. Let's go."
As he spoke, Dahuang walked around in front of me, turned on the flashlight, and walked down the stairs.
Behind the small door is a relatively long and narrow staircase. The staircase is made of wood and is a bit old. It creaks when you step on it.
The stairs are only two meters high, and underneath the stairs is the basement space.
This basement is very large, almost similar to the area of this villa. In other words, most of the underground floor of this villa is empty, which is the basement.
After going down the stairs, I looked around. There was a lot of space in the basement, and there were a lot of things. In addition to some pillars supporting the entire villa, there were also many things covered with large plastic sheets.
I didn't know what was covered under these plastic sheets, and I wasn't in the mood to look. I just wanted to see where Haoran was hiding just now.
The three of us walked slowly in the basement. Because it was so gloomy here, my back was already wet with cold sweat. But Lao Mao and Da Huang were obviously people who had seen the big world, and their expressions were very different.
Very calm.
I followed Dahuang and walked in front of the old cat, moving forward slowly. Dahuang turned back and asked me as he walked: "Lin Yang, where did you see that face just now?"
I pointed to a remote corner in front and said: "It's right in front. That face seems to be behind the pillar in front..."
Before he finished speaking, there was a sudden "clang" and the small door on the stairs suddenly closed!
I was so frightened that I looked back and saw that the small door above the basement stairs was tightly closed, and no light from the outside could shine in. If it hadn't been for Dahuang's flashlight, we would have been in darkness now!
I began to panic a little and quickly shouted: "Uncle Li? Uncle? Open the door for us?!"
However, after shouting several times, no one responded. Lao Mao sighed helplessly and said, "Forget it, I think Li Chi's father is a little afraid of this basement and will definitely not dare to come over. The door may have been blown shut by the wind."
, just close it, we can just open it ourselves after a while."
I can't help but admire the old cat's calmness, but when I pushed open the small door in the basement just now, I actually discovered that the small door may be very old and the door shaft is very stiff. Even pushing it open by hand is very difficult, let alone the wind.
Already.
In other words, the door must have been closed by a very strong external force, and it was definitely not blown by the wind. Besides, the basement is at the end of the villa and there is no ventilation at all. How could there be such a strong wind?
Although the more I thought about it, the more scared I became, but I still tried to stay calm. I knew that the old cat must have thought about this problem as well. He didn't say that, he just wanted to calm my emotions.
Thinking of this, I quickly calmed down and followed the light of Dahuang's flashlight to look around. It was pitch dark in the basement and there seemed to be nothing.
However, suddenly, I vaguely heard a familiar voice, saying in a low voice behind me: "Lin Yang... are you here?"
"Haoran!?" I was startled, turned my head suddenly, and said: "Dahuang, take a snapshot!"
Dahuang's flashlight followed closely, but there was nothing behind me, except for a huge pillar, there was nothing...
