Yang Jian has just walked up the first flight of stairs and arrived at the second floor of the building. This short flight of stairs has already alarmed an unknown ghost.
This ghost is most likely a hidden danger left by the ghost masters who were killed here before. Now it is trapped in the ghost painting and has become a part of the ghost painting, which indirectly increases the danger level here.
"If this is the ghost left behind after the death of a ghost master, then there must be a ghost painting in this building. I am not sure whether it is the source, but at least I can be sure that the information about Jimmy just now is correct."
Although Yang Jian knew there was a ghost upstairs, he was still thinking calmly.
"But I have a music box curse on me. The ghost on the stairs may not be able to kill me, but just the two of them may not be able to kill me."
I looked back at Li Yang and the foreigner named Jimmy.
Once they are targeted by ghosts, they will surely die.
"Now none of us are making any movement, and the ghost upstairs has also stopped walking. In other words, the sound of footsteps is the key." Yang Jian stepped back from the steps above.
He came to the second floor.
The second floor is a cement pavement, so the sound of footsteps is very small and almost inaudible.
really.
Just as he had guessed, there was no movement on the wooden stairs above, and everything seemed very quiet.
"Come up, come to the second floor. The ghost is still a little far away from us. If you get here, there will be no danger for the time being. Once you get to my place, you should be safe if you are careful about your steps." Yang Jian said to them.
If you want to leave this place, it would be safer to jump directly from the second floor.
Although he said this, Li Yang's legs were trembling. He looked back now and really wanted to give up this mission and leave this terrible place.
The Jimmy next to him was even more timid and didn't even dare to look with his eyes closed.
But although they were scared in their hearts, their minds were still clear. At this time, they gritted their teeth and continued walking up the stairs.
Crunch, crunch.
Two people stepped on the old wooden stairs, and the sound rang again. Although they were very careful, the sound inevitably came out when a person's weight pressed on the first step.
The sound echoed in the silent building.
Soon, the strange footsteps upstairs also sounded.
Creak, creak...the sound of footsteps was going down the stairs.
Yang Jian took advantage of this moment to stare upstairs, trying to figure out which floor the ghost was on.
The floors of this house were not particularly high, there were only seven floors in total, so he could roughly judge from the sound that the ghost's location should be on the fourth or fifth floor stairs.
This distance is considered safe.
"Is this okay?" Li Yang was covered in cold sweat. He came to the second floor and stepped on the hard cement floor.
The creak of the wooden floor disappeared, and so did the sounds from upstairs.
"Okay, come with me to check the situation on this floor. Pay attention to the left, right and back."
Yang Jian started to take action, and at the same time added: "After you find the ghost, your mission will be completed, but if you encounter danger before that, you may die here. I will not protect you specially, but as long as you follow closely
I will be responsible for blocking the ghosts when they attack."
"Thank you, thank you."
Li Yang said, and then muttered a few words to Jimmy next to him, telling him that the Mr. Yang in front of him could resist that terrifying thing.
Jimmy opened his eyes and looked at Yang Jian muttering something again, seeming to be thanking God again.
Yang Jian said nothing, and he began to search on this floor.
Lacking the vision of the ghost eyes and the lack of support from the ghost realm, his action efficiency is very slow. Bringing these two oil bottles is also a helpless move. It is easy for him to ignore some of the situations around him. Sometimes ghosts suddenly pass behind him.
He didn't even know, after all, there was a limit to what a pair of eyes could observe.
There are many rooms on one floor.
Yang Jian would not miss any corner. He directly opened the door of a room, entered and started searching.
He stared in front and to the side. Jimmy was responsible for the situation behind him, while Li Yang was responsible for adding in some situations that could not be observed immediately.
"There's nothing wrong with this room." After walking around for a while, Yang Jian led them out again.
Everything in the silent building seemed very quiet. The ghost on the stairs made no movement and fell into a state of stillness.
Fortunately, Yang Jian discovered it earlier. If he had discovered it later, he would have gone all the way up the stairs. By the time they met the ghost on the stairs, it would have been too late.
"Go to the room by the front door and walk around. Don't miss any corner. I don't want to go back and search again." Yang Jian said seriously.
He tried to search the building within an hour and find the location of the ghost in the ghost painting.
Yang Jian acted quickly and carefully, and he quickly understood the situation on this level thoroughly.
A bit of bad luck.
He could not find the ghost on this floor.
In other words, he needs to go to the third floor to find it.
"Go upstairs through the outdoor stairs. This way you can avoid taking the wooden stairs and avoid the ghost on the stairs." Although Yang Jian didn't find anything on the second floor, he found another way to go upstairs.
road.
Although Li Yang was covered in cold sweat, his fear was slightly relieved and his legs no longer trembled.
Maybe it was because of Yang Jian's overly calm performance, or maybe because he had gotten used to it a little bit.
In short, this is good news, at least I am not paralyzed in place due to excessive fear.
Jimmy was the same, he was afraid of returning, but he did not lag behind in his actions. He always followed behind and never fell behind.
Although Yang Jian has the confidence to confront the ghost on the stairs head-on, he doesn't want to be targeted by another ghost for no reason. He will definitely avoid it when he can and will never do anything stupid.
The outdoor stairs are made of iron.
The paint on it has fallen off, leaving only dark red rust stains, but fortunately it is still strong, and it makes no sound when walking on it while deliberately slowing down.
Listened carefully.
There was no creaking sound on the wooden stairs in the building.
"The ghost is still standing there and not moving." Yang Jian's expression changed and he confirmed the situation.
This is a good way to take the outdoor stairs without disturbing the ghost.
"As usual, follow me and continue searching, and watch what's behind you." Yang Jian was most worried about what was happening behind him, because it was a blind spot in his sight.
"Don't worry, we will pay attention. We are also afraid of death and will not joke with life." Li Yang said in a suppressed voice.
Yang Jian nodded: "It's good to have this awareness."
He climbed over through a window and entered one of the houses.
As soon as he entered the room, Yang Jian couldn't help but frown. He saw a completely decomposed corpse left in the living room. This corpse had been dead for a long time, at least a few months.
I don’t know whether he committed suicide out of despair or was killed by the ghost in this building.
In short, the man did not leave the building alive.
Yang Jian's ghost shadow covered the past.
There was nothing abnormal about the body.
"Don't pay attention, it's just an ordinary corpse, it has nothing to do with ghosts." Yang Jian withdrew his gaze, without any fear.
He searched for it for a while, then left the house and came to the walkway on the third floor.
But soon Yang Jian discovered something unusual.
The corridors on the third floor were littered with many corpses. A quick scan showed that there were at least a dozen of them, large and small, with varying degrees of decomposition. It was horrifying to see.
"Something's wrong. There are no corpses on the second and first floors. The corpses are all on the third floor." Yang Jian's eyes narrowed.
The places where these people died are so concentrated, which can only explain one problem. These people were trapped and died on the third floor. It's not that they didn't want to leave here, but that they had no way to escape.
If other ghosts were responsible for the murder, the bodies should be scattered on various floors.
"The only thing that can trap people to death in one place here is the ghost realm, and this itself is in the ghost painting. Other ghost realms will be completely suppressed... so the reason for trapping these people to death is
There is only one possibility, the ghost painting is on this floor."
Yang Jian reacted instantly, but he immediately turned around and looked.
At this time, Li Yang behind him said in horror: "Yang Jian, Jimmy said that the window we climbed in just now has disappeared and turned into a wall."
Before he could finish speaking, Yang Jian had already seen changes behind him on the road he had just come from.
The window disappeared.
The outdoor stairs outside are no longer visible.
The ghost paintings changed some of the layout of this floor.
The exit is blocked.
"It seems we are very lucky." Yang Jian's eyes darkened.
