Three horses carried the three of them across the ford of the river and onto the cliff. Behind the hill was a sparse woodland, which was more suitable for wild animals to inhabit.
The cabin that the man pointed to should be in this forest.
Victor put the set of sex cards back into his bag, pulled the reins and entered the forest, walking at the front. The other two were not far beside him, and they could hear the dull snorts of their horses.
"What kind of guy would live here and not be afraid of meeting a bear?" Donnie complained, keeping his hand on the holster on his waist.
Wherever he looked, Victor didn't find any cabins.
Suddenly, his horse let out a long roar, and the front two hooves sank deeply into the soft mud. Only then did Victor realize that he had actually stepped into the swamp.
I don’t know if it’s the trees in the swamp or something that filters the color of the sun, but the sunlight that shines through the gaps in the leaves is a little green.
"We're in trouble."
Victor pulled the horse back, then jumped down, held the reins, and wanted to hear the opinions of his companions, but received no response from them, and the snoring of the other two horses also disappeared.
Victor looked back in surprise and saw that Henry and Donnie were missing!
Just now he could still hear Donnie complaining and the three horses snorting. It had only been a few seconds, why was he suddenly alone?
Moreover, he had not stepped very far into this sparse forest, but now when he looked back, he could not see the way he came. The atmosphere around the swamp suddenly became a lot weirder... p>
"What exactly is going on?"
Victor trembled all over and panicked.
The air is filled with the smell of moist moss, and there are probably some inexplicable spores mixed in. The human body will definitely not have any good reaction after inhaling it.
"It's weird..."
Victor tried shouting twice, but still got no response from Henry or Donnie.
Just when he wanted to retreat, he suddenly saw a small wooden house covered with green moss standing in the middle of the swamp, in the thin mist that filled the water!
Tall wooden piles stretched out from under the swamp, supporting the wooden platform and the entire house. The railings on the platform were also pulled by thin wires, and several pickled salted fish were hung on the wires. There were holes in the windows of the house, and at night
There will definitely be air leakage.
Indeed, as the immigrant said, there is a small house in the forest.
"This is...Vincent's home?"
Victor swallowed his saliva and could almost feel his throat moving.
The scene ahead is very strange, but if the butler in his dream really exists and lives here, then Victor is closer to solving the mystery of himself.
What exactly happened at Damon Manor on August 18?
Does Vincent know what is going on with the mysterious creature on Victor? Is he a seer, and can he save Victor from that ghost?
Holding the reins, Victor observed the house carefully and felt that it didn't look like there was anyone inside.
He hesitated for a moment, but finally suppressed his inner nervousness and timidity and stepped into the water on foot with the horse.
He tested the depth first, and when he felt there was no danger, he slowly waded towards the small wooden house.
The water just reached Victor's thighs and was not particularly deep. He quickly came to the edge of the house, tied the horse up, and climbed up to the platform from the wooden stairs next to it.
He cautiously looked inside the holed window and saw only a simple bedroom, but as expected no one was seen.
"The sheets are discolored and full of rat droppings. It doesn't look like someone has lived there recently..."
Victor walked to the door again, broke the door handle, and opened the door easily.
"Broken house..."
As soon as he opened the door, he smelled a pungent smell.
What he saw was the corpses of several geckos and spiders, with their bellies turned and scattered in the simple living room. The four-corner table with broken legs fell to one side, and several dinner plates were broken on the floor.
A sofa covered in brown spots and damage was placed in the corner of the living room and bedroom, with a few empty beer bottles still on it. There were spider webs everywhere on the ceiling, and there were still living flying insects struggling in the webs.<
/p>
The bedroom door was closed tightly. What Victor looked out of the window just now was the bedroom inside. The small house did not have a kitchen.
Holding his nose, Victor entered the living room of the house. His feet stepped on the rotten moss-covered wooden boards, making a frightening squeaking sound, which made him dare not take too big steps.
The living room environment was too simple. Victor remembered that there was a desk in the bedroom, so he turned around and opened the bedroom door, which was not locked.
The stench inside was even worse. As soon as he took a step forward, he suddenly found a withered arm sticking out from under the bed! That angle was invisible from outside the window.
Someone died in the bedroom!
Victor understood what he saw, but why was the body under the bed?
"It can't be Vincent..."
Victor thought with fear.
Also in the blind corner of the window, there was a book on the table. The pages were already withered and yellow. Victor did not check the body first, but pretended not to see it and went to flip through the manuscript first.
On the wrinkled pages, only the first few pages contain text, like a record made by someone.
……
The third era: Rain on March 4, 1863
Unfortunately, this may be the last time I take notes. Living in the swamp all year round has absorbed a lot of moisture, and I have become terminally ill.
If some things are not recorded, it would be a pity to carry them to the grave when I die. Therefore, I decided to write the results of my research on sexual appearance over the years into this manuscript. It may not be possible to record it in extreme detail.
Because there is so much content, I can only make a summary.
First of all, I can’t remember exactly when I started paying attention to secret transmissions and seers.
In the evolution of history, the secret transmission of the ten sexual characteristics has been mastered by various esoteric religions and groups, and some have appeared in complete sequences, such as the "Bright Light Realm" and their "Lamp" secret transmission of sexual characteristics.
It should be able to reach at least Secret Seventh, which is what is rumored to be reachable by the Immortals who are still above the Knower.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
The "Bright Realm" is also a religion that has been confirmed to have given birth to immortals.
Unthinkable...
In addition to wanting to gain the powerful power of the invisible art, people studying secret transmission may also have something to do with the rumored secret place.
I have never seen the secret place, so I can't make any comments, but the seers who have studied the secret transmission will always seek ways to enter the secret place and get a glimpse of this secret realm, because it seems to be related to their promotion.
When I heard the word "door" for the first time, I happened to attend the occult research conference at Gray Bean National University.
Professor Carmen Hesmos once put forward a theory that there is a concept of "door" in the Kingdom of Secrets, which represents the path of understanding for seers of different genders.
Therefore, when a seer faces a bottleneck, he must step into the mysterious world to find opportunities.
It's a pity that I haven't had any opportunity to study esoteric transmissions in all these years.
I gained a lot from attending that conference. A female scholar from Gordon shared with us the conceptual drawings of a secret place she obtained from a seer.
It probably looks like this:
........Lamp
....../...|...\\
..Fire—|—Stone
....|\\....|..../|
..Meat—|—Dream
....|\\..\\.|./../|
....|...Butterfly....|
....|.../.|.\\...|
..Heart—|—Tower
....|.\\...|.../.|
....\\...Winter.../
.......|
........Night

I know this pattern is very abstract, but it is obvious that her drawing combines the ten sexual phases into a "tree"-like pattern. The ten sexual phases are separated by some varying numbers of lines.
Linked.
What does this pattern represent?
There are different opinions.
Some people think it is some kind of invisible magic ritual; some people think it is the connection between sex and phase; some people even think this is the map of Misu...
It’s simply unbelievable.
Later, I wanted to chat with the lady in private, but unfortunately, she just disappeared from the world after the meeting, and there was no trace of her...
Very strange, very strange.
Okay, let’s talk about the mysterious abilities of the seers.
The only thing I have seen is the secret transmission of the nature of "lamp" No. 1: The warning person, the seer who masters this secret transmission, seems to be able to predict the direction of the danger in advance, and thus take precautions in advance. And
The second secret of same-sex appearances: night watchmen, they can move the light source to any position.
Then comes the secret transmission of the nature of "night" one: the thief, the seer can secretly replace the gold coins in the target's pocket with the pebbles in his hand.
And the secret transmission of the "dream" nature: Fortune Teller, I once entrusted a seer with the "dream" nature, and he helped me find the lost pen.
In so many years of research, whether I saw it with my own eyes or read through records, I have learned that the secret transmission of the nine sexual characteristics has more or less exposed its clues in the ocean of history.
But there is only one kind of nature, whether it is its seer or secret transmission, has never appeared, and that is the most mysterious one - the butterfly.
Therefore, I also studied sex signs.
I don’t know when this kind of prop began to appear in the Western Continent. The manufacturer that issued it has never been found, but people could always get it from different channels, until the Realm of Bright Light began to strictly block the spread of sex cards. So it took a lot of effort for me to get this deck.
According to the description of the Xing Xiang Card, the "Butterfly" Xing Xiang refers to rules and transformations. Following this line of thinking, I have searched to see if there are any esoteric cults that believe in butterflies, but there is no such thing.
Until my illness worsened, I never really witnessed the invisible art of the butterfly phase.
This is strange. I even doubt whether the butterfly nature really exists. Are there only nine kinds of nature?
But judging from the picture shared by the lady, the butterfly phase is in a very critical position in this "tree"...
What is the reason for this?
Later, I also discovered that there are 22 Sichen cards in the sex cards. They actually correspond to the 22 lines connecting the ten sex signs in the "tree" pattern... and they also correspond to the Tarot cards.< /p>
When I discovered this secret, I was even a little scared.
The Emperor paid off his hard work. Just when I was about to become too sick to leave my bed, I finally got something related to the nature of butterflies.
I have never seen that thing before, and the text recorded on it does not belong to any era. I even suspect that it is a secret butterfly biography, but I cannot study it because I cannot understand the text.
What a pity. I endured the pain and looked up various information according to the text on this item. I knew that any secret transmission level represented a certain "identity", and the "identity" also corresponded to the effectiveness of the invisible technique. .Therefore, I hope to understand the identity symbolized by this secret message.
After a lot of comparisons and translations, I confirmed that this is the secret transmission of butterfly nature.
This is an exciting result!
And that's not all, I finally translated the three words in it. Although I don't understand the meaning of these three words, they definitely represent the identity of Die Mi Chuan, I'm sure.
Combining them, I got a word - "divination operator"
I was particularly...
——
The text at the back was blurred by the spilled ink, and Victor couldn't see clearly. His original curiosity was aroused and started to burn, but it suddenly stopped. This feeling was very uncomfortable.
People in this world may not know what divination means, but Victor knows it very well.
He eagerly flipped through the pages, but there were all black spots at the back. There were only a few words on one page, and that paragraph made people feel numb after reading it...
"It has discovered me, it has taken control of everything, my luck will eventually be driven away, and misfortune will be like a violent storm..."
The last is the name signed in the note:
"Vincent Tang...the last thing he wrote before his death..."
Putting down the manuscript, Victor squatted on the wooden floor. He then began to look at the withered body under the bed. At this glance, he felt that the other person had been dead for at least more than a year. The body was too dry to be recognized. It was different from the one recorded in the manuscript. The time can match.
"He is really Vincent Tang...but...that's wrong..."
That's right, something is wrong! Nothing is right!
In the dream, this man was the butler of the Damon family. The male prostitute said he was a miner in the ironworks. But now judging from the notes, Vincent Tang should be a scholar?
"How can a person who has been dead for more than a year still go to Walding to play with male prostitutes?"
Victor's mind was already filled with questions, and he was puzzled.
As soon as I stood up, the wooden board under my feet suddenly made a loud cracking sound.
Although Victor tried his best to control his steps, his weight could not change with the steps. The floor suddenly collapsed, and he fell directly with an ouch.
