This is a village in the city. There are low buildings everywhere, which feel out of place with the surrounding high-rise buildings. Xu Feng walked on the potholed road in the village and looked at the silence around him. He couldn't help but frown.
At this time, the walls of the houses in the village were covered with the words "HAI" in circles, and the residents in the village had also moved away. The empty village had no light, giving people an eerie feeling.
Xu Feng followed the address given by the mission and came to an old house. It looked desolate and dilapidated, and was comparable to the original Yizhuang in the secret realm.
Because it was to be demolished, the house was not locked. Xu Feng gently pushed the door open, and the rusty hinges made a scraping sound, which sounded more like a ghost house.
Entering the front yard, a jujube tree hugging two people came into view. Because of the onset of winter, there were only bare branches left on the jujube tree, and only a few dried jujubes were hanging on the top of the tree.
In front of this house is a three-story building, with a row of wing rooms on the left and right, and a garage next to it. The total area should be more than 300 square meters.
Xu Feng stood in the front yard and looked around. His eyes were desolate. It was obvious that no one had lived there for at least half a year. The doors of all the houses were open, the glass of several windows was broken, and there was more on the roof of a wing room on the left.
There was a big hole, and cold wind was blowing in. This kind of house had been abandoned for more than half a year and was no longer habitable. Xu Feng didn't know his professional mission. What was he doing in such a dilapidated house that was about to be demolished?
.
After arriving at the location, Xu Feng opened the task interface again. Sure enough, the professional task had been updated, requiring Xu Feng to explore the entire house. At this time, the exploration degree had reached 8%.
Xu Feng had no choice but to start exploring the house according to the task requirements. He started from the house on the left with a big hole in the roof, and walked into the room. This should be the kitchen, with a brick stove covered with dust.
Xu Feng walked around this room and found nothing. The exploration level only increased by 3%.
Xu Feng spent about ten minutes looking around the two rooms on the left and right. He didn't find anything, but he just felt a bit chilly. It was already one o'clock in the morning, and some clouds gradually appeared in the sky, blocking the moonlight.
When the cold wind blows, it is inevitable that you will feel a little chilly on your body.
Soon, Xu Feng arrived at the three-story building, which was the main building of the whole house. It was at least 150 square meters. When he pushed the door and entered, a ghost figure suddenly rushed out. This ghost figure was obviously a
The female ghost had disheveled hair, red eyes, and a blood-red mouth full of fangs. She let out a heart-rending roar, and rushed towards Xu Feng with her teeth and claws bared.
Xu Feng was startled and subconsciously threw a soul fire talisman forward. As a result, the paper talisman flew back through the ghost shadow. The ghost shadow jumped one meter away from Xu Feng and suddenly disappeared out of thin air.
, everything before seems to be an illusion.
Xu Feng calmed down his frightened mood and stood at the door and looked warily towards the first floor. It was obviously a living room, but all the furniture had been moved away. Except for a painting on the entire wall, there was no room in the room.
Empty with nothing.
Xu Feng's eyes couldn't help but be attracted by the painting hanging on the wall. The soul fire talisman he threw out just now was also attached to the painting and did not explode.
Xu Feng stepped forward, first took off the soul fire talisman that was already shining slightly red, and then began to look at the painting hanging on the wall.
This place is about to be demolished. The valuable items in the house should be moved away by the owner just like the furniture in the living room. Even if there are some left behind, they will be picked up by some scavengers. This painting on the wall will be taken away.
It's not an antique, but at least it's worth some money. Even if the owner doesn't want it, scavengers won't be able to ignore it. It's a bit strange that it can still be hung on the wall.
This painting is a portrait of an old man, wearing an upright Chinese tunic suit, sitting on a Taishi chair, holding his knees with his hands, and looking straight ahead with a serious face.
The old man in the painting looks a bit old-fashioned, but the whole painting is very real. The painter obviously put a lot of effort into it. If the old man in this painting is a member of the family who is about to be demolished, then this painting will definitely not be the same.
It would be abandoned here, but if it was not from this family, how could it be hung on the wall of the main hall?
Just when Xu Feng was confused, he suddenly discovered that in the portrait, the old man who was looking straight ahead seemed to have his eyes moved, and he actually looked at Xu Feng.
"Huh?" Xu Feng raised his eyebrows. It seemed that there was indeed something wrong with this house.
Thinking of this, Xu Feng flipped his wrist and instantly took out an evil-suppressing talisman from the parcel column, and was about to stick it towards the old man in the painting!
"Young man, without any martial ethics, unexpectedly attacked my old man!"
The old man in the painting suddenly spoke, with a hoarse and sinister voice, and a hint of evil in his eyes.
"Ha, no wonder this painting was left behind. It turns out to be haunted!" Xu Feng sneered and continued to stick the evil-suppressing talisman in his hand towards the portrait.
Such a weird and ghastly scene, if it were an ordinary person, he would probably be scared to death and run away, but for Xu Feng, you don't have to see too many monsters and monsters. Before, the ghost figure opened the door to kill and suddenly appeared.
He was unprepared and was shocked. Now that he was on guard, Xu Feng would not be surprised even if the old man walked out of the portrait, not to mention just talking.
The evil-suppressing talisman was attached to the portrait and immediately burned, quickly igniting the portrait as well. Streams of black gas emerged from the portrait. The old man in the portrait let out bursts of shrill screams, but the expression on his face
But it became more and more ferocious.
"Young man, I curse you, I curse you!" The old man sat motionless on the Taishi chair, letting the flames slowly devour it, but his voice continued to be heard from the burning portrait.
"I curse that you, like me, will be burned to death by fire!"
The old man's painting was like a thorn, making Xu Feng's heart ache slightly. This abnormality made Xu Feng immediately alert.
The next moment, Xu Feng immediately felt a burning pain all over his body. He subconsciously opened the status bar and took a look. Sure enough, a new bad status appeared in the status bar.
"Scorching Curse: The whole body is burned by flames, and you will receive 100 points of burning damage every fifteen seconds. This effect will last for 3 minutes! Within three minutes, the apostle's near-death protection will be temporarily sealed and will not be effective!"
Seeing the burning curse in the status bar, Xu Feng couldn't help but take a breath of cold air. The power of this curse is a bit scary. You know, an ordinary level 3 secret realm apostle, if there is no physical attribute that can be improved, the physical fitness is only over ten points at most.
3 minutes, 100 points of burning damage every fifteen seconds, and sealed near-death protection, which can simply burn an ordinary third-level apostle alive.
