This ancient house looked very strange, but fortunately, no danger was encountered along the way, and not even a ghost appeared, which made many people breathe a sigh of relief.
But it’s right to think about it carefully.
If you can't even get close to the ancient house, then this message delivery mission won't be possible.
All the messengers died outside, so who will complete the task of delivering the letters?
As the door of the ancient house opened, a mysterious place that had been covered in dust for a long time appeared before everyone's eyes.
This may be the only group of living people who have entered this ancient house in so many years after it was abandoned. If it weren't for this letter delivery mission or the bus stalled, no one would be willing to come to this ghost place. Of course, you also
I can't find such a place.
At this moment, Yang Jian took the lead with a cracked spear in hand. He was the first to step into this ancient house.
The thick bluestone tile floor was covered with a layer of dust, making it look like it had been uninhabited for a long time.
His ghost eyes opened subconsciously, peeking around to ensure his own safety.
However, the ghost's vision was completely dark and nothing could be seen.
"Supernatural interference... The sight of the ghost eye has been affected. Sure enough, this ancient house is not simple." Yang Jian's face was stern. His ghost eye lost its function and he could not see everything around him clearly.
However, the ghost eye's own supernatural powers were not affected.
In other words, he just can't see, but still has the ability to restart himself.
The front yard of the ancient house is empty, there is nothing, there is only a wall blocking the back of the gate. This should be called a screen wall, which is only found in Chinese-style buildings.
After passing the front yard is a patio.
The patio is in the shape of an opening. Just looking up, the sky is dark and gloomy, which does not add much light to the ancient house, but makes it look particularly depressing.
"There is no danger at the moment." Yang Jian was still moving forward. He was very cautious and observed his surroundings.
Behind him, Li Yang, Yang Xiaohua, Zhou Deng, the messenger, Wang Feng, Da Qiang, Ying Ying and others followed one after another. They were all looking around, paying attention to every move around them.
"It's a very exquisite ancient house. It's relatively well-preserved. It would be worth a lot of money if left outside." Zhou Deng looked at it and seemed to be still evaluating the price.
If the price is right, he may even want to move this ancient house.
After passing the patio, there is a corridor on the left and right. It is deep and dark. I don't know which direction it leads to. I can't see the end at a glance. I think there is a way of no return.
There are rooms on the left and right of the corridor. The rooms near the outside can still be seen, but the rooms inside are not visible at all and have been obscured by darkness.
"Room..." Yang Jian subconsciously touched the old key in his pocket.
That is the key that the ghost closet gave him, which can open the door of a locked room here.
The Haunted Closet trading curiosity doesn't seem difficult.
Just ask to open the door and do nothing else.
Yang Jian looked at it carefully.
He saw the door.
There is a copper lock hanging on the door of the second room on the right. It is an old style. It seems that as long as the key is found, the lock can be opened easily.
"It seems that the room the ghost closet asked me to find is a room. I don't know what's in it." Yang Jian was thoughtful, but he soon came back to his senses.
Now is not the time to think about this.
It was impossible for him to open the lock without knowing the situation clearly.
There is no rush for the mission of the ghost closet. It has not yet expired. There is still more than a month left. The most important thing now is to find a way to complete the task of delivering the letter and successfully go to the fifth floor of the post office.
When Yang Jian retracted his gaze and looked towards the lobby, his face suddenly became gloomy, and the cracking spear in his hand shook involuntarily.
There was actually a person sitting in the middle of the lobby.
No.
That shouldn't be a person, to be precise, it's a corpse. The corpse looked like an old man, tall and tall, but he looked very thin. The dark brown skin on his body was loose and saggy, with corpse spots on it. He seemed to want to
He had just died and the body was still very fresh.
The old man was wearing a loose robe, which seemed out of place for this era.
The old man's body was sitting stiffly on a black Taishi chair with his eyes closed, his feet bare and no shoes on.
There is also a grand master's chair next to it, but the chair is empty, and there is no other body sitting on it.
"A corpse? Or a ghost."
As Yang Jian stopped, others followed. Some people immediately took a few steps back subconsciously when they saw this scene.
Ancient house.
Corpses in the old house.
It all looks so weird that people have to think about the worst.
"Even if it's a ghost, it's just one ghost. What are we afraid of? Are we still unable to deal with it?" Fan Xing said with a slightly dissatisfied tone.
Will you see fewer ghosts along the way?
This ancient house is so weird, it would be impossible to explain it without ghosts.
If it is just a ghost, this is actually a good thing, because at least the source of the danger has been determined, and then all you need to do is to be on guard and pay attention, and you can even take action in advance to kill the danger.
"This corpse is very special. If it is a ghost, it will be very vicious once it revives. Yang Jian, you'd better think of a way to deal with it. I think your coffin nails are good, why not just nail this thing to death." Zhou Deng
I made a suggestion at this moment.
Yang Jian glanced at him: "I have this idea, but if I leave the coffin nails on this body, will someone steal it?"
The spear in his hand can be disassembled, and the coffin nails can be removed separately to nail the dead body in the lobby to avoid accidents.
However, if he left the coffin nails on the body, it would most likely be stolen away by someone.
Don't underestimate the limits of these people.
They dare to do anything to survive. They don't even think about whether ghosts will appear. They only think about their own safety.
"You are overthinking. There is absolutely no way I would do this." Zhou Deng vowed: "Besides, how dare I take your things, Yang Jian? I want to live for a few more years and don't want to die so soon.
.”
"Go to the back hall and have a look."
Yang Jian stared at the corpse. Even if he knew that the corpse was a ghost, as long as the ghost didn't start killing people, it would still be safe for the time being.
If there is any abnormality, it is not too late to use coffin nails.
He walked into the lobby cautiously and approached the body sitting on the black Taishi chair.
After confirming that the body was motionless, Yang Jian walked around to the back hall.
As soon as he arrived at the back hall, he saw a red lacquer coffin. There was an incense burner placed next to the coffin. Several incense sticks were burning slowly inside, exuding a faint fragrance.
Apart from that, there is nothing else in the back hall.
"A corpse, a coffin... This old man looks like he has just died. Could it be that the old man prepared it before he died? I just didn't expect that he died so quickly, so he didn't have time to be buried."
The appearance of these things makes people have to speculate in this way.
Beyond the back hall is the backyard, leading to the old forest outside.
There are only a few things in the whole ancient house. It is very simple. There is nothing worth paying attention to except the coffin and the body sitting on the Taishi chair in the lobby.
Of course, there are also the rooms in the corridors on both sides of the patio.
"Staying in a place like this for seven days?"
Yang Jian frowned, looked at the others, and then said directly: "I am going to live here for a few days. If other people have nothing to do, please leave as soon as possible. Don't affect my work. If I turn back now,
Maybe we can still catch the bus, but if we spend time here, we will be dead."
These words are addressed to people other than the messenger.
Wang Feng, Daqiang, Yingying, and Yang Xiaohua all remained silent. Ten thousand of them didn't want to stay here, but there was nothing they could do.
"No, I want to stay here. I can already feel it. The evil ghost in my body has been suppressed and there is no sign of recovery."
"This place is really weird. I just realized that since I entered the old forest, I no longer have the urge to revive. It's just like staying on the bus. I decided to stay and stay for a few days to see the situation.
"
"It turns out you all feel this way, and you thought I was the only one who felt it."
Others actually expressed their unwillingness to leave. They discovered what was special about this place and were a little surprised.
Because this place is much safer than on the bus.
So far I have only seen one ghost, and the ghost has not moved yet.
I don’t know how many times this is compared to the number on the car.
"It turns out that the supernatural interference just now was like this. I thought I was the only one affected." Yang Jian touched his forehead.
The ghost eyes couldn't see it before, but this is what happened.
"What about you?" Yang Jian looked at Zhou Deng and the person in charge named Fan Xing.
"I also want to take away the two lanterns outside. I will leave when you finish your work." Zhou Deng said that he would also stay here.
He seems to be very interested in this place and wants to explore it and take away some supernatural items.
Fan Xing's eyes moved slightly: "I heard that Captain Yang took away a door handle from the headquarters. He can open the right door at the right time and leave here. I just want to be in Captain Yang's glory. I don't know if I have this honor."
As soon as these words came out, the few ghost masters who were still wavering immediately opened their eyes and looked at Yang Jian.
Surprised and pleasantly surprised.
this moment.
Yang Jian became the focus of everyone.
"You dare to leak the secret?" Li Yang immediately stared at Fan Xing.
Unexpectedly, at this time, a person in charge suddenly rebelled.
But this seems not difficult to understand.
Now the bus stalled and everyone temporarily fled into the old forest and came to the ancient house.
It seemed unrealistic to leave this place and take the bus, so he focused his attention on Yang Jian.
People who are about to die will naturally not care whether the secret is leaked or not.
"Sure enough, only the dead can keep secrets." Yang Jian said this.
"Then Captain Yang has to kill everyone."
Fan Xing said: "Captain Yang, don't be angry. I don't ask too much. I just hope that Captain Yang will take us for a ride when he leaves. Before that, we promise to obey Captain Yang's instructions and never act randomly."
"That's right, Yang Jian, as long as you take us away, we promise to obey your orders."
"Yang Jian, how many days do you want to stay here? Is there anything we can help you with? We all help each other and benefit each other. Wouldn't it be better to survive together?"
"Ghost Eye Yang Jian, I know you are very powerful, but there are so many of us, so you should show some respect."
Facing the joint oppression of these people, Yang Jian was not angry. He just sneered and said: "I will stay here for seven days. Let's talk about it after you can survive seven days. If you can really survive, I don't mind taking you away."
.”
Seven days?
"Do you want to wait until this old man gets too old?" Zhou Deng said suddenly.
But this sentence made many people's expressions change.
This is not an auspicious number.
Rumor has it that a person’s soul comes back to life within the first seven days after death.
The old man looks like he died not long ago. If he stays here for seven days, he won't be spending the first seven days.
