Suddenly, a strange woman's laughter kept ringing from all directions around us. Then, the lights in the villa instantly seemed to have malfunctioned and began to flicker on and off.
In panic, Luo Lin suddenly pulled off my hand, and then pointed in the direction of the second floor.
"Four, four-nine, over there!"
Looking in the direction Rowling pointed, I saw a woman covered in blood and disheveled hair standing there from the second floor where we had just come, looking down at us!
And...and...
That woman looked very much like the disappeared Gaoshan woman in the oil painting! She was wearing a blood-red Gaoshan costume, and she was holding a gleaming sword in her hand. There was blood on the blade.
low.
"How could...how could this happen?"
When I saw this woman, no, this female ghost, I had a sudden realization.
Zhang Mo is right. It turns out that we guessed wrong from the beginning. The real murderer who has been killing people in this villa all this time is actually the woman in the oil painting! And now, because of the three fat men, we removed the oil painting from the villa just now.
He was taken away from us and a curse has been triggered. This female ghost appears now and is here to kill us!
Thinking of this, I immediately grabbed Luo Lin's hand, rushed down the stairs as fast as possible, and ran to the door exit.
The door of the villa was now closed tightly. I stretched out my hand to open the door, but found that the door could not be opened at all!
"Damn it!"
I was confused for a moment. The door was not locked, so how could it not be opened? I asked Luo Lin for the key in disbelief, and tried to open it with the key again, but the door still could not be opened. It seemed that there was a supernatural force.
The power has sealed the door tightly!
"What should we do? Sijiu, what should we do...?"
Rowling has never encountered such a thing. It can be said that it is a chaotic situation right now, but I know that the more we are in this situation, the less we can panic. If we lose our minds because of panic, then we are really stepping in.
At a dead end.
"Forty-nine, forty-nine! Come out quickly! The oil painting is missing!"
At this time, I heard the voice of the three fat men outside the door again, so I slammed the door a few times, and shouted at the same time: "Three Fatty! We are at the door, please open the door for us!"
"No! I tried it. Not only the door of the villa, but also the windows of the villa can't be opened! What's going on inside? Has the curse appeared again? Ask Master Zhang to find out what's going on.
?”
Hearing the shouts of the third fat man, I immediately came back to my senses.
Yes, the only one who can save us right now is Zhang Mo. He is the descendant of Longhu Mountain and has witnessed countless similar supernatural events. He will definitely have a way!
Thinking of this, I immediately took out my mobile phone and found that the call was not interrupted, so I shouted to Zhang Mo on the other end of the phone: "Zhang Mo, you reminded me too late. The third fat man has already taken the oil painting out of the villa. Now Luo and I
Lin and Lin are already trapped in the villa!"
"What? How could this happen? Why do you two move so fast?"
"Is now the time to say this? Listen, your guess just now is right. The ghost attached to the oil painting is not Junji Ito, but the female ghost. She has come out now. Before that ghost kills me
Before going to Arlene, you must think of a way for me!"
At the end of the sentence, my patience was almost gone. Because at the same time as I was speaking, there were dull footsteps on the stairs in the main hall, and the wooden stairs creaked under the tread.
sound.
That female ghost seems to have started going downstairs!
I immediately shouted into the phone: "Zhang Mo, did you hear that? The female ghost has come out of the oil painting! If you can't come up with a solution for us, when you and Qian Yi return to Taiwan, you will have to collect the body for me.
Got it!"
"Hold on! Sijiu, I remember that the evil-suppressing formation I set up in the villa to suppress the curse should still be there. You try to introduce the female ghost into the formation, then turn on the hands-free on your phone and wait for the woman
Give me a signal as soon as the ghost enters the formation, and I will recite the spell formula for you, which should buy you some time! There are also those talisman papers with runes written on them that I left in the villa, those things
They have the effect of exorcising ghosts, so throwing them on female ghosts should also have some effect!"
Hearing what Zhang Mo said, I first turned on the hands-free function of my phone, and then pulled Luo Lin back to the main hall.
I looked at the circular formation covered with cinnabar and sulfur cloth left by Zhang Mo. After confirming that the formation had not been broken up by us, I pulled Luo Lin and jumped into the circle.
Grabbing Luo Lin's hand, I told her: "Arlene, no matter what happens, stay close to me. When I say jump, jump out of this circle with me immediately!"
"Yeah." Luo Lin nodded obediently and didn't ask any more questions, just sticking close behind me.
Boom, boom, boom...
The sounds on the stairs were getting closer and closer. Seeing that the female ghost was about to appear, I finally checked on my phone and said, "Zhang Mo, she is coming, are you still there?"
"I'm ready, remember to give me the signal!"
Almost at the same time Zhang Mo's words fell, a dark wind suddenly blew from the stairs, blowing the curtains in the main hall and blowing some papers and documents left by Rowling's father in the room.
It's everywhere.
Seeing the pieces of paper flying everywhere, my heart was already in my throat. I immediately looked down at the ground and breathed a sigh of relief. I don't know why, under this gloomy wind, Zhang Mo used to arrange the formation.
The sulfur and cinnabar have not been blown away. Judging from this point alone, Zhang Mo's plan may actually be effective.
"Forty-nine."
At this time, Luo Lin suddenly called me. I raised my head and understood the reason why she called me just now.
The female ghost we two saw just now had already walked out from the corner of the stairs on the second floor.
This female ghost looked at us sternly, stepped on the steps, held up the sword and walked down step by step, grinning at us with a "jiejie" smile.
As the distance between the female ghost and us got closer and closer, my heart beat more and more violently, and my eyes were tightly locked on the female ghost's feet.
One step, two steps, the next second after the female ghost stepped into the formation, I immediately stretched out my arm to grab Luo Lin, pulled her and jumped out of the formation, and at the same time shouted into the mobile phone:
"Zhang Mo!"
The next moment, Zhang Mo's low voice of chanting a mantra came out from the phone.
"boom!"
Along with Zhang Mo's chanting, a wall of fire suddenly burned up from where the formation was, directly separating us from the female ghost.
With the barrier of the wall of fire, the female ghosts in the formation did not seem to dare to rush randomly. Instead, they kept turning along the wall of fire, making shrill screams at us from time to time.
"Sijiu, are you okay?"
Hearing the sound on the phone, I immediately replied: "It's okay, the female ghost is trapped."
"Damn!" Hearing what I said, Zhang Mo on the phone seemed a little disappointed: "If it is an ordinary ghost, this formation should be able to turn it into ashes directly. From this point of view, this female ghost is indeed a curse summon
There is no doubt that there is a ghost. According to my past experience, the female ghost will escape from the formation within the time of a cigarette at the latest!"
A cigarette? Such a short time? I began to feel desperate and rushed to the phone: "Then what should we do? Is there no way to eliminate her?"
"terribly sorry."
On the other end of the phone, Zhang Mo was silent for a long time and then said to us: "Sijiu, I really can't think of any solution now? Unless we can find the location of the corpse in front of the female ghost and perform the ritual on her body, otherwise
Even if I'm with you, I'm still helpless!"
"But we don't even know who this female ghost is, how can we find her body?"
"No, listen to me carefully. We all know now that the woman in this oil painting is not a member of Ito Shunji's family. In this case, there are only two possibilities for her to appear in the oil painting. One is that someone used some kind of magic
, imprisoning the female ghost in the oil painting, another possibility is that after Shunji Ito painted the family portrait, the female ghost attached herself to the oil painting. The spell to imprison the soul on the object has long been
It has been lost for a long time. In a remote place like Taiwan, it is even more unlikely for anyone to know this technique. So I think this situation is more likely to be the latter. In other words, this female ghost is attached to the oil painting by herself.
of!"
I was shocked: "Depend on yourself? Is this possible?"
Zhang Mo said: "It is possible. Although this situation is rare, Longhu Mountain did encounter one or two similar incidents in history, but in those incidents, the attached objects did not become cursed objects.
, but it is just a common situation of being possessed by a ghost. After an object is attached to a ghost, it becomes a cursed object. However, I have never seen any similar records of this situation."
After a pause, he continued: "What I just said is the only possibility that I can think of so far that this oil painting becomes a cursed object. If it is the former possibility, then you may be afraid this time
There is no escape. But if it is the latter, then the corpse of this female ghost should be near the villa, because under normal circumstances, even if a person's soul turns into a ghost, it is impossible to leave his body too far away."
"Then how far will this distance be?"
The other end of the phone suddenly fell into silence. I almost thought that the signal was cut off. After saying "hello" a few times, I heard Zhang Mo reply: "It's probably dozens of kilometers away..."
Dozens of kilometers?
I almost started yelling! Now Zhang Mo's evil-suppressing formation can only trap the female ghost for ten minutes at most, but he wants me to find the female ghost's body within a range of dozens of kilometers?
Not to mention that Zhang Mo and Lin Qianyi are far away in Japan at the moment, and Luo Lin and I are trapped in the villa. The only one who can help us search for the body of the female ghost is the three fat people outside. Even if we have all the people, if we want to
It would probably be impossible to find the female ghost's body in such a large area within a week.
What's more, his suggestion had only a 50% probability, because if this oil painting was deliberately turned into a cursed object, then the female ghost's body might be anywhere in the world.
middle.
Therefore, after comprehensive consideration, although Zhang Mo just said so much, the possibility of getting us out of the current crisis is simply zero!
