Wang Xu was walking on an empty road. The dim moonlight shrouded the surface of the earth, but the surroundings were still dark.
There is a sense of disharmony here that is hard to describe. In short, it makes Wang Xu very uncomfortable. His ability to perceive has been weakened to the point of almost disappearing. Therefore, he relies more on his five senses to observe the surrounding environment.
The road is not too wide, and the ground feels like rocks and sand. The buildings on both sides of the road remind Wang Xu of American western movies. There are iconic decorations such as porches and sinks on the front of the buildings, as well as the standard small pubs of Western bars.
Door (in the past, architectural designs in the western United States were very
Practical, such as tying horses to the pillars in front of the porch, and then using the sink for the horses to drink. As for the door of the bar... obviously, if you install a very elegant and beautiful ordinary door, when the cowboys open it in the bar,
It will be destroyed when you throw someone out after a fight).
Wang Xu continued to walk forward, and he found that this place that seemed to be a small town had no trace of living people. There were ghosts in the houses beside the road, but no spiritual consciousness could be detected.
Finally, he came to the church in the center of the town. He opened the door of the church, but it was still empty. What was strange was that the statue in the middle of the church was missing. There was no serene Madonna and no handsome man on the cross. There was only
The base of a statue.
Wang Xu walked out of the church and looked around again to see where he had not walked. Suddenly, he saw a highland not far to the west of the town. On the highland, a classical building
The British-style villa jumped into his sight.
This scene was extremely strange, as if Count Dracula's castle had flown from Europe to the desert of the western United States, but Wang Xu felt that what he saw was definitely not a mirage, because under the moonlight, bursts of light shone through the big house.
Even people without spiritual awareness can probably feel the gloomy aura.
Wang Xu found a winding path on the edge of the town. Walking along the road, he walked into a small forest. It is not strange to have such a forest next to a desert town, because there are usually many places near where people live.
There is water, and where there is water, there are plants, and to build a house, you need to cut down trees. But strange things soon appeared again. Something seemed wrong in this forest...
It had been more than ten minutes since Wang Xu walked into the woods. Needless to say, it felt hot and humid. What was terrible was that the trees around him didn't feel like plants, but rather like living things, or rather, they had been alive...
The putrid smell of corpses came from those trees, stimulating Wang Xu's sense of smell. Most people would have vomited long ago, but Wang Xu had seen some disgusting scenes after all, and he was a crazy and courageous man. He only frowned slightly.
, and he didn’t show much discomfort or fear.
Just when Wang Xu was wondering whether he was walking in a small forest or trekking inside the Greater Khingan Mountains, the forest finally came to an end. In front of him was the highland, with the sloping road zigzagging upwards, leading to the weird building.
of ancient houses.
Wang Xu continued walking, and he found that the highland was higher than he had imagined. When he reached the top building, he realized that it was a cliff with only one way out.
Looking back at the town just now, it seemed that it was not far away, and the woods still looked sparse and thin when viewed from a high place. I really don't know why I felt like I was walking into a dense forest just now.
Looking up at the big house in front of him, standing so close to the edge of the cliff, Wang Xu was thinking, is the owner of this house not afraid of falling out of the window and dying when collecting clothes in the rain?
At this time, Wang Xu's eyes were suddenly attracted by a well. There was nothing special about this well, but the problem was its location. Why was there a well on the high cliff?
No matter how poor Wang Xu's geographical knowledge is, he still thinks this is impossible. It is not surprising that there is a river in such a high place, but the well is connected to underground water, and the surrounding plains
, you are the only one who stands out from the crowd
, then how deep is your well? The vertical distance up and down must at least include the sea level difference here, right? I don’t think the rope at the mouth of your well can be used to support climbing heights, right? Could it be that your house
Is there an underground reservoir built in the mountain below?
Suddenly, a strange "crunching" sound was heard. This sound interrupted Wang Xu's thoughts. He looked towards the source of the sound. It came from a window on the second floor, five sticks of dry firewood.
Her fingers were slowly scratching the glass with their nails, and the palms were still covered in blood.
Wang Xu couldn't see the scene in the room, but he only knew that this was not a good sign. If there was a living person asking for help in this room, it meant that there was probably something more evil doing violence to him, and if this
If the claw belongs to a dead person, then the situation is actually simpler... I just go in and play with it, and it doesn't take a day or two to do this.
So Wang Xu raised his sleeves and rushed into the big house. Originally, he wanted to kick in the door with a very handsome and domineering posture. Firstly, it was to bluff others, but also to embolden himself. Unexpectedly, the door was not closed at all.
While hiding himself, Wang Xu's movements directly caused him to stumble and almost fall.
However, he is still in embarrassment. Wang Xu is also a ghost hunter after all. He seems to be shaking when he does many things, but in fact he is confident in his heart. He cannot detect the existence of spiritual consciousness in this room. It is very strange. Wang Xu
When I rushed in, I had already used the Spiritual Consciousness Gathering Technique and was ready to deal with unexpected changes at any time.
The room was pitch dark, but Wang Xu had already used his spiritual vision and could see quite clearly. Because of this, he felt something was very wrong... It was so normal here, with no messy furniture or blood and meat on the floor.
, and there is no white-haired old man wearing a British butler uniform running around with his fangs exposed.
Run... In Wang Xu's initial estimation, this kind of haunted house must at least look like a murder scene. It is a normal phenomenon that the walls are covered with bloody fingerprints... But now, everything is safe and sound, it is simply a set of furniture.
, a fully decorated classical villa can be sold directly by inserting a sign at the door.
But Wang Xu didn't have time to think too much. He immediately rushed to the second floor, came to the door of the room where he just saw the vision, and turned the door handle...
"Ah!!!" Wang Xu woke up from the nightmare and found that his whole head was wet.
"What's the name? It's late at night, so pay attention to your quality." Mr. Cat stood beside Wang Xu's bed, holding a glass in his hand, but there was no water in it...
Qi Bing was also standing next to him, still expressionless.
"Damn it! How did you get in?!" Wang Xu shouted.
Mr. Cat scratched his hair in despair: "Of course they broke the door. Did you leave the door open for some girl?"
Wang Xu said: "Hey! Is this still a high-end hotel? There is no alarm system if the door is broken open?"
"Hmph..." Mr. Cat sneered: "It is indeed equipped with a five-pin brake system and a single-circuit alarm..." There was a burst of contempt in his eyes: "That is just a thing to fool children...
"
Wang Xu was shocked and thought: If you were able to do this kind of door-picking, you would basically end your own life to pick the door of the immortal...
Qi Bing interrupted them: "Get up quickly, we don't have much time, something is happening here."
Wang Xu glanced at the clock on the wall. It was two-thirty in the morning. "It's haunted here too? Or is there a water monster in the lake outside?"
Mr. Cat said: "I don't know, but there must be something wrong. Qi Bing and I can't find any weird spiritual knowledge, but our spiritual abilities, Taoist power, etc., have been greatly weakened.
I'm afraid there's something at play here that we've never encountered before."
After he said it, Wang Xu also discovered that the feeling of being restricted in his dream just now still existed. He jumped up quickly and got dressed in more than ten seconds. His hair was disheveled and he didn't even wipe his eyes.
He said with a very serious expression: "Let's go and have a look!"
