When they first obtained Chu Renmei's power, Meng Nan and others thought it was a very powerful force.
But later they discovered that, except for Chu Renmei, the other ghosts often did not use hallucinations as their main attack method.
And some powerful ghosts, such as Sadako, Kayako and the like, can even hide their figures. Even if Meng Nan and others used the power of Chu Renmei, they would not be able to observe their specific location.
However, even though this ability is so useless, it is still more than enough to detect the existence of evil spirits.
Wherever souls and ghosts pass by, there must be some strange smell left behind, just like people leave scent wherever they walk.
This kind of breath is difficult to distinguish with the naked eye, but Chu Renmei's power can detect it.
However, there is no weird atmosphere at all in this house, everything is so normal.
But you must know that this is the world of "The Conjuring". In this world, being too normal is itself abnormal.
"I don't know if Keke and the others have gained anything." Chen Song looked towards the stairs.
On the other hand, in the basement, Lin Keke, Man Sisi, and Sun Tianzhao were carefully inspecting all the items in the basement.
They pulled off every piece of white cloth and put it in the corner.
After all, they don't worry about problems like falling ashes, but they can't give the devil any chance.
There were a lot of things in the basement, and Lin Keke and the others spent a lot of effort searching them thoroughly.
Most of the things had no effect, but Sun Tianzhao found a wooden box from a corner.
There was a cross pattern on the front of the box. Sun Tianzhao hesitated and did not open it.
Soon, Lin Keke and the others arrived on the second floor, and Sun Tianzhao handed the box to George.
George looked at the box carefully. There were no unnecessary patterns on the box except for the cross.
"How's it going? Open it?" Meng Nan looked at George.
Just like the floor was guessed before, this box is probably also a seal.
"Open it and take a look." George thought for a moment and said.
Then, George gently picked at the cracks in the box.
"Creak, crunch..." A strange sound came from the box, and George stopped what he was doing and looked at Meng Nan.
"Continue." Meng Nan nodded. The sound sounded like the sound of rusted metal.
Taking a deep breath, George continued to open the box.
Meng Nan and others held their breath and stood beside George, staring closely at the box.
Finally, the box was completely opened, but to Meng Nan's and others' expectations, there was only a slightly yellowed painting inside.
"This?" George took the painting out of the box, looked at it carefully, and slowly frowned: "This is a portrait of God."
"God's portrait? Why is it here?" Meng Nan and others were confused upon hearing this.
"I don't know, but there should be no problem with God's image." George said: "No matter how powerful the devil is, he would not dare to offend the majesty of God like this."
"Yes." Meng Nan and others nodded, asked George to put the portrait away, and then went to the lobby on the first floor together.
Chen Ruier and others went to the kitchen to work for a while, and soon prepared a sumptuous dinner.
Before the devil appears, they must adjust their state, and eating is also an important part of it.
When Meng Nan and others finished eating and packed up their things, it was already seven o'clock in the evening, and it was pitch black outside the window.
Meng Nan and others studied everyone's accommodation plan tonight. After all, the devil is likely to take action at night.
However, this is not the time to avoid talking about men and women. Meng Longlong, Miao Ruoshi, Lin Keke, Ji Yuesheng and even Sun Tianzhao are still lacking in the ability to protect themselves.
So for the sake of safety, Meng Nan and others decided to take one person with him.
Meng Nan and Sun Tianzhao shared a room, Chen Rui'er and Miao Ruoshi shared a room, Man Sisi and Ji Yuesheng shared a room, Xia Wenqing and Lin Keke shared a room, Chen Song and Meng Longlong shared a room, and George and Li Shiming shared a room.
If you really need to get up at night, find someone in another room to go with you.
At the same time, in order to prevent everyone from being separated, Meng Nan and others decided to let the others live on the same side as much as possible, that is, three rooms on the north side of the stairs and two rooms on the south side.
Meng Nan himself lived with Sun Tianzhao in the room in the northwest corner of the second floor.
In this way, if there is a problem with any room, the rest of the people will be informed in time. After the allocation is completed, everyone will return to their respective rooms to rest.
According to speculation, the devil will most likely appear after 11pm, so rest early and recharge your batteries.
Time passed quickly, and soon the bell rang, and it was eleven o'clock!
Meng Nan and others heard the bell and opened their eyes at the same time, paying careful attention to their surroundings.
Meng Nan held his breath and listened carefully to the sounds around him.
"Tick tock, tick tock..." It seems like water drops are dripping...
"Rustling, rustling..." There seemed to be leaves shaking...
"Creak, creak..." It seemed like there was a wooden board moving...
Meng Nan listened for a long time, but everything seemed so normal and there was no problem.
He turned his head slightly to look at Sun Tianzhao, and Sun Tianzhao also turned his head to look at him.
The two looked at each other with doubts in their eyes.
It's obviously past eleven o'clock, why is there still no movement?
In other words, the devil is in someone else's room right now?
After hesitating for a long time, Meng Nan still didn't dare to risk getting off the bed. After all, he didn't know what the punishment would be.
In this way, the night passed quickly, and as soon as it dawned, Meng Nan sat up from the bed and walked out with Sun Tianzhao.
When they came to the corridor, Chen Ruier and others happened to come out.
Everyone briefly talked about yesterday's situation, and there was nothing unusual about it.
It seemed that except for the fact that everyone stayed up all night because of excessive nervousness, everything else was so normal.
The next day, since they could not leave the house, Meng Nan and others searched the entire house thoroughly again to see if anything had changed.
However, everything was exactly the same as yesterday, even if it was some small traps that Meng Nan deliberately made, there were no problems.
In this way, such peaceful days passed for three consecutive days, but Meng Nan and others became increasingly wary.
The devil would never let them go. Although they didn't know why the devil never took action, they didn't dare to be careless at all.
However, in this extreme tension, Meng Nan and others were also under great pressure, even greater than the pressure of facing a ghost directly.
Finally, on the night of the fourth day, things quietly changed...
