After arriving at the back hall, Li Yue discovered that although the coffin in the back hall had not been moved, one of the three incense sticks in front of the coffin was missing.
Li Yue didn't even need to reason to be sure that this was definitely done by that guy Zhou Deng.
This made Li Yue feel dissatisfied with Zhou Deng for the first time.
However, he did not dwell too much on the fact that one of the three incense sticks was missing.
Now that things have happened, we can only take one step at a time.
At most, the balance of the old house will be broken, and at worst, it will be a big deal to let go.
Then Li Yue began to look around the entire back hall.
Suddenly, Li Yue's eyes changed, and he slowly walked to an inconspicuous place in the back hall.
When he entered the back hall for the first time, he discovered that there was an inconspicuous back door.
It's just that the door was closed at that time, but now it's open;
Although it was not fully opened, there was still a crack in the door.
It looked like someone left here and closed the door after walking out.
Li Yue looked back at the two remaining sticks of incense in front of the coffin.
I already have a guess in my mind.
Zhou Deng must have sneaked into the back hall while no one was paying attention and stole a stick of burning incense.
Then Zhou Deng did not return to the lobby, but opened the door in the back hall and went out from here.
Li Yue looked out along the crack in the door.
All I saw was an old forest shrouded in darkness.
Next to the old woods, there is the same path, winding and extending to the back door.
This is a completely new path.
It just looks very similar to the road leading to the front gate.
The same old forest, the same path.
This couldn't help but make Li Yue a little curious, where does the path in the back hall lead to?
"Have you noticed that the width of the back door of the back hall seems to be just enough to accommodate the coffin being carried out?"
At this moment, Messenger Eagle suddenly said casually: "I remember that there is a very important part of the funeral, which is the funeral."
Hearing this, Li Yue's face suddenly became startled.
Then a thoughtful look flashed in his eyes.
Just now, Li Yue was just observing and didn't think much about it. But when he heard Ying Ying's words, he immediately reacted.
He couldn't help but glance at the eagle.
I hadn't noticed it before, but this eagle was quite attentive and discovered such important information first.
In fact, Li Yue was too strong, so he always subconsciously ignored these messengers.
Although these messengers do not have much knowledge about the supernatural world and lack a lot of common sense.
But after all, being able to climb to the fourth floor step by step in a place like the Ghost Post Office shows that these messengers are quite good in terms of ability and intelligence.
Eagle's words not only reminded Li Yue, but also reminded other people.
Fan Xing first looked at the coffin, then at the door in the back hall, and said slowly:
"What you said makes sense. It seems that when the time is right, we have to carry the coffin, walk along the path outside, walk all the way to the old forest, and finally bury the coffin.
Already..."
At this time, Li Yue secretly recalled the contents of the novel he had read before traveling through time.
Although he could not remember many of the plots clearly, he still remembered some things after being reminded by Yingying and Fan Xing.
It seems that on the sixth day, people in the old house need to take the coffin along the path outside the back hall to the old forest for burial.
That is to complete the funeral ceremony.
It's just that the funeral process will not go smoothly, because there will be some terrible things that will stop it.
Of course, there are still a few days until the funeral, so there is no need to worry too much just yet.
What needs to be thought about now is the night vigil.
"The lobby has also become completely dark..." At this time, Yang Xiaohua suddenly said.
Since entering the back hall, her haggard eyes have been staring in the direction of the lobby from time to time.
When they left the lobby before, although it was a little dark, they could still see their surroundings more or less clearly.
But now the lobby is shrouded in darkness unconsciously, and people can't see anything at a glance.
Only endless darkness can be seen.
At this time, everyone couldn't help but look in the direction of the lobby.
I also saw the darkness that had enveloped the lobby.
However, everyone also discovered that this darkness was very special. After completely covering the lobby, it did not invade the back hall.
Instead, it stopped at the wall between the lobby and the back hall.
As a result, in the entire ancient house, only the back hall where the coffin is located has not been invaded by the supernatural.
And this seems to be the only safe area.
"The darkness has not spread. It seems that today is indeed a night vigil." Seeing that it had stopped in the back hall, everyone was relieved.
"Fortunately, we came to the back hall in advance, otherwise it would have been dangerous if the darkness invaded the ancient house."
Many people can't help but sigh in their hearts.
Their eyes couldn't help but look at Li Yue.
Previously, they were still a little hesitant about whether to trust each other's judgment, but now it turns out that the other party is right.
"It seems like, as long as we stay here in the back hall, we should be safe."
The person who was a little nervous at first also showed a relaxed smile.
But before everyone could relax completely, everyone's expressions changed again.
They all heard clearly that there was a strange movement in the dark and quiet lobby.
The sounds were clear and strange;
There was the sound of chairs being dragged, as if someone was moving the few pieces of furniture in the lobby;
There were also heavy footsteps echoing, and in addition, you could even hear the sound of dripping water, as if someone had finished taking a shower and was wet and hadn't dried himself.
...
At this time, the lobby, which had been plunged into darkness, was no longer lifeless, but suddenly became extremely lively.
Upon hearing these strange noises, everyone immediately did not dare to say anything or make any noise.
Everyone kept silent in a tacit agreement, fearing that any unintentional noise or insignificant movement would be targeted by the evil ghost.
For a time, although there were many people in the entire back hall, there was an eerie silent atmosphere.
Although the people in the back hall did not dare to make any noise, the noise in the lobby never disappeared.
Even as time passes little by little, the movement shows signs of getting more intense.
"boom!"
Suddenly, a loud noise came from the dark lobby.
It was caused by the chair being thrown to the ground.
Judging from the noise, the chair that fell to the ground should have fallen apart.
Because there was also the sound of splinters of wood flying around.
"Is there a ghost destroying the black Taishi chair? Is it because the ghost can't find its target in the lobby, so it's causing chaos?"
After Yang Jian heard the movement, he thought to himself.
After Li Yue heard this voice, a thoughtful look flashed in his eyes.
Although he didn't notice anything special when he was sitting on the chair in the lobby.
However, Zhang Dong could place them in the lobby or even in the corridor to block some weird things. Li Yue instinctively felt that those chairs were not ordinary things.
Now it was actually destroyed by a fierce ghost, which gave Li Yue the urge to take action.
However, this impulse was quickly suppressed by Li Yue.
It's only the second day now, and it's not time for him to take action yet.
If he takes action now, it is likely to cause some changes and affect his subsequent plans.
