Chapter 163 The Strangeness of the Ancient Town

"Here we are, this is it."

night.

Liu San and Yang Jian appeared in front of the ancestral hall again.

Unlike during the day, the door of the ancestral hall is closed at night, and it is very quiet, with no sound at all.

"It's too late. The ancestral hall is closed. When I came here before, the door of the ancestral hall was still open. It was closed not long ago, but there was an old man guarding the ancestral hall inside. He was holding an enamel tea cup. He was a bit hunchbacked and had one eye." Liu San said.

.

He told some of the situations in the ancestral hall.

"That person killed one of my paper figurines. I think it would be safer if we join forces with you. After all, we still have to deal with the Ghost Lake time. I don't want to waste too many paper figurines here."

But just as Liu San was speaking, Yang Jian had already stepped forward and pushed open the heavy door of the ancestral hall.

The door creaked and made a sharp friction sound.

It was particularly clear at night in the quiet ancient town, and the sound was so far away that the nearby residents probably heard it.

After the door of the ancestral hall was opened, there was a smell of burning paper inside, and the surroundings were dark. Only two inconspicuous oil lamps were lit in the middle of the ancestral hall.

The flame on the oil lamp was very small and swaying slightly, which was not enough to illuminate the entire ancestral hall. On the contrary, because the two oil lamps were shaking, the surroundings were blurred, which added to the eerie feeling.

Yang Jian glanced at it and strode into the ancestral hall.

"Be careful." Liu San reminded.

Yang Jian said, "The loud sound of opening the door did not attract the attention of the person you are talking about. Either he is deaf, or he is not here. If he is, he has already stopped us from entering at this time."

"Why, are you afraid of being beaten?"

He glanced back.

Liu San was still standing outside the ancestral hall, not daring to come in.

"Then he takes action again, but this time he has to face the two of us. We have to weigh it a little bit. Just don't use a paper man to paddle the water. By then, you will not only offend the people in this ancestral hall, but also

Offended me."

Yang Jian said: "In addition, Li Jun was very dissatisfied with what you did in the last ghost painting."

"To be honest, I have some objections. If you continue like this, you will offend all the captains sooner or later."

"I, a paper man, had already taken action before, but he still died, so I was just a little scared." Liu San walked in at this moment. He stared at the surroundings, looking a little cautious.

After all, he was still very distressed when a paper figurine was broken for no reason.

Yang Jian stood in this ancestral hall and observed.

There is nothing strange around, this building is a normal building.

The only strange thing is the rows of memorial tablets in the middle of the ancestral hall.

He glanced around and made a careful calculation in his mind. There were seven rows here from top to bottom. Each row had several or more than a dozen spiritual places. In total, there were at least nearly a hundred spiritual places. It was very large.

too much.

There is an offering table, an incense burner, an oil lamp, and a brazier in front of the shrine.

There was paper ashes in the brazier. Someone had burned paper here, not long ago.

"The paper has been burned, the incense has been burned, and the people have disappeared. It seems that everything here ends before six o'clock." Yang Jian glanced around with ghostly eyes.

He didn't find the person guarding the temple.

I didn't see any supernatural phenomena.

"It's safe here at night."

After saying that, he looked back at Liu San.

"I'll find that old guy." Liu San's eyes were a little gloomy at this moment.

After finally pulling Yang Jian over, he failed again and couldn't find the one-eyed old man. This trip was obviously a loss.

"Probably can't be found."

Yang Jian said: "The whole ancient town is filled with a kind of mystery. Even I can't pry out it clearly. Even if your paper man explores the entire ancient town, he can't find the truth."

"Here I feel that reality is deeply entangled with a certain supernatural space. As Shen Lin said before, this is a connection point, so many incredible things will happen here."

"Even so, then there must be a 'road'. Give me time and I can find it." Liu San said.

Yang Jian didn't speak, just stared at the rows of memorial tablets in front of him.

Different names are engraved on the spiritual tablets, and there is no date of death or birth, which is very simple.

Although he knew a lot, he didn't recognize any of the names, they were all very unfamiliar.

But out of curiosity, he still wrote down all the names, maybe they would be useful in the future.

This is the benefit brought by ghost completion. You can review your previous memories at any time, which can be regarded as a true photographic memory.

But just when Yang Jian and Liu San rushed to nothing, another place in the ancient town.

This is an old ferry.

Shen Lin, Li Jun and A Hong waited from day to night, but there were still several hours before the correct time.

However, as ghost masters, they do not lack patience.

After all, compared to facing a real ghost, waiting is a very relaxing thing.

It's after nine o'clock in the evening.

There are no street lights in the ancient town, so it is very dark.

On the dark roadside stones.

Two groups of ghastly ghosts danced alive, which were Li Jun's eyes under his sunglasses.

He has no eyes and cannot see, but his will-o'-the-wisp has a ghost realm, and the place illuminated by the fire is a ghost realm, so he can know everything around him through the ghost realm.

"There is no movement, everything is calm. The ancient town is much more peaceful at night than during the day. Everything seems to have fallen into a deep sleep, which makes me very uncomfortable." Li Jun said in a calm voice.

"Isn't it better to be calm? Why do you feel uncomfortable?" A Hong said.

Shen Lin on the side said: "Even the supernatural phenomena have become so regular, so it only means that the things hidden behind the ancient town are more frightening. Is the ghost lake incident inseparable from this? No one knows."

"But what needs to be clear is that this is an S-level supernatural event."

"It must be a bad feeling to deal with a supernatural incident only to discover a bigger one... Wait, someone is coming."

Suddenly.

Shen Lin gestured and noticed someone approaching at night, so he immediately whispered a reminder.

In the darkness, two gloomy will-o'-the-wisps suddenly went out, and Li Jun's figure disappeared.

Shen Lin also disappeared.

Ah Hong took a few steps back, and her figure quickly disappeared into the darkness, as if she had merged with everything around her.

The three people quickly hid themselves.

The sound of footsteps came from an inconspicuous bluestone path between two old houses nearby.

The footsteps came suddenly, as if they appeared out of thin air. No one was seen passing by at the other end of the path. It was just that at a certain point in time, such a person suddenly appeared on the road.

A middle-aged woman about fifty years old appeared in the shadow of the path. This middle-aged woman looked very old, with many wrinkles on her face. She was carrying a wooden basin with a basin of clothes in it, and walked towards this abandoned place.

old ferry.

Middle-aged women dress very old-fashioned.

The style and workmanship of the clothes are not from this era, but rather from decades ago.

"This person is weird." Li Jun peeped secretly and couldn't help but want to subdue the woman and ask her for details.

But he still suppressed his inner impulse.

The situation is unclear and it would be reckless to take action.

This middle-aged woman said nothing, her face was indifferent, and her movements were very skillful. Even if her vision was poor at night, she quickly went down a few steps and came to the river. She started to pick up a piece of clothing and put it in the water, and began to wash it.

stand up.

The sound of rushing water sounded by the river.

The sound of this woman washing clothes could be heard all around.

"At night, this woman doesn't sleep, doesn't even turn on the light, and washes clothes by the river. Do you think this person is a normal person?" A Hong spoke in the dark, her voice was very low, only Li Jun and Shen Lin could hear her.

rang in his ears.

"I can obtain her memory, but I need to bear certain risks. What do you two think?" Shen Lin said.

Obviously he has plans to take action.

Li Jun glanced at it, thought for a moment and said, "She is an ordinary person, at least she looks like this. If you make a mistake in judgment, she will be killed by you."

"Naturally, no matter right or wrong, she will die. Of course, there is another result, that is, we will be killed by her." Shen Lin smiled.

"Forget it, you can't make fun of an ordinary person's life. Cancel the idea of ​​taking action. Wait for her to leave. It's still too early." Li Jun said.

"What he did." Shen Lin said, he just had the idea of ​​taking action, not that he had to do it.

The three of them waited until about eleven o'clock.

finally.

The woman by the river finished washing her clothes, picked up the tub again, walked back, and returned to the alley.

But when the woman entered the alley.

Li Jun, who was leaning against the wall next to him and hiding in the ghost realm, glanced at the woman's wooden basin.

There was no one inside, not a single piece of clothing, and what he held in his hand was a wooden basin without even a drop of water on it.

"How could..." Li Jun was shocked.

He clearly heard the woman put the wet clothes back into the tub after washing them.

Why did I wash it for a long time and not even a drop of water stained it?

"Regret? It's still too late to take action now." Shen Lin smiled.

Li Jun's face changed uncertainly, but he finally waved his hand to stop Shen Lin from doing this; "Since you have decided to wait, then wait, you don't need to take action, I will investigate the matter in the ancient town later, the Ghost Lake incident is the most important now

, other things can be put aside for the time being."

In the end, he didn't want to cause trouble.

Because it was already past eleven o'clock, and there was less than an hour left before the action.

"Maybe you will regret this decision. Obviously, the things hidden in the ancient town are more dangerous than the ghost lake. Yang Jian saw this, so he went to investigate the non-existent street. Liu San was not at ease, so he also went to this place.

Explore the ancient town again," Shen Lin said.

"By the way, let me tell you one more thing. The couple that Yang Jian met during the day is now dead."

"Dead?" Ah Hong remembered at this time.

During the day, Yang Jian stopped a couple holding masks.

"Yang Jian killed them?"

Shen Lin smiled and said: "How is it possible? Yang Jian didn't even look at such little people, and wouldn't do anything to them at all. They died in a hotel in the ancient town, and they looked like... He died of natural causes, and the boss is already collecting the body."

He didn't use the ghost realm, but he knew exactly what was happening.
