Dad made it very clear that the former owner of this villa may have learned about several previous murders that occurred in this villa from the wizard.
But this news made the Liu family and brother very puzzled.
"Wha, what?"
Liu Yongqing was shocked and said: "Master Lin, do you mean to say that our relative knew that there was something wrong with this villa for a long time? If so, why did he give the villa to my parents?"
After hearing this, the father did not answer, but stared at Liu Yongqing for a while. Seeing that the other party seemed to be really unaware, he said: "Miss Liu, do you know the relative who gave you this villa?"
Liu Yongqing shook his head in confusion: "No, I don't know him. When you said that, I remembered that when my father received the will, I asked him who this kind relative was.
But dad refused to tell me the identity of that person... Isn't he a relative of our family?"
"No, that person is really a relative on your father's side, but they can only be regarded as distant relatives, and this relative of your father's is actually not much different from your father in terms of age..."
"Really? I always thought it was an elderly grandparent."
The father sighed and said: "To tell you the truth, I have also investigated this relative of yours. In fact, this relative is about the same age as your father. When they were young, they studied at the same university.
Of course, compared with your family, your relative's family background is much better off. He is already a millionaire at a young age."
"Really? No wonder his inheritance has so much money..." Liu Yongqing asked again, "Master Lin, why did he give this villa to my family? Have you investigated the reason?"
"Well. Actually, when I traced the period when they were in college, I also discovered that your mother also studied at the same university. Later, I went to find your parents' classmates in college, and I found out that,
Back then, your father and that relative were still very good friends, but later they became love rivals because of the appearance of your mother, and they have not been in contact with each other since then..."
"Love rival..." The Liu Yongqing siblings seemed to find it difficult to accept the news for a while.
The father continued: "So I suspect that the fact that your family will get this villa is probably a premeditated revenge by that person. He may not be able to forget your father's love-stealing fight back then. After knowing it,
After he was about to die due to a sudden illness, he planned to take final revenge on your father before his death, and this rumored haunted villa was his means of revenge."
"That's ridiculous, how is this possible!" Liu Yongqing shook his head and said, "Master Lin, we are just here to ask you to exorcise demons, not to listen to you slander our parents. I hope you can slander our parents...
Yongyang, why are you pulling me?"
Before Liu Yongqing finished speaking, her younger brother kept winking at the side. In the end, seeing no other way, he had no choice but to pull his sister's hand, and then said: "Sister, please stop talking." Master Lin said
That’s right…”
"Huh? Brother, what are you talking about?"
Liu Yongyang explained: "Sister, my father didn't tell you about this back then, but my mother mentioned it to me. When our family got this villa, my mother told me that she was a little surprised because of the relationship between my father and that relative.
The relationship was not good, and I didn’t understand why the other party gave us such a valuable inheritance. At that time, I asked my mother what was going on, and she said that the relative had a love rival relationship with my father. "
When Liu Yongqing heard this, he was immediately speechless. When he wanted to apologize to his father, his father put away the photos, waved his hand to Liu Yongqing and said, "It's okay, Miss Liu, you don't have to."
care."
After putting away the things, Dad spoke again: "That's it for the past about this oil painting. I believe you should have realized the terrifying ability of this oil painting by now. And based on the situation of the deceased I just mentioned,
Among the three abilities of oil painting, the one we need to be most wary of is the ability of oil painting to create illusions. This is because the main way this oil painting harms people's lives is actually to impose illusions, and this is also the means it uses to protect itself.
"
"So, after thinking about it, I felt that if I want to destroy this oil painting, I must first find a way to break the illusion that the oil painting imposes on us."
Dad pointed to the cameras around him and said, "As I said just now, these cameras are tools used to break illusions. In addition to cameras, I have also prepared some other things..."
Dad took out a cardboard box from behind and motioned for us all to come over. When everyone got closer, he took out a watch for each of us from the cardboard box.
I took it and took a look and found that this watch was no different from an ordinary electronic watch, but the size was a bit larger than an ordinary watch.
Dad said: "According to my inference, this oil painting can interfere with our vision, but it may not be able to affect our hearing. The watch I gave you has been specially modified. It will release electric current every half an hour.
This current will not cause harm to you, but it will make you feel as if you were pricked by a needle. If you were controlled by hallucinations at the time, this current should be able to wake you up. In addition, this watch also
Along with the appearance of electric current, a high-frequency sound wave will be released. If the electric current cannot wake you up, then this sound wave will certainly do. I wonder if you have ever heard the sound of fingernails scratching the blackboard? That high-frequency sound wave sounds like
It’s almost like that.”
After the explanation, Dad asked us all to put on our watches.
So I pulled off the strap and started to put the watch on my left hand. But at this moment, my mind suddenly became a little dazed. I don’t know how long it took, but I suddenly felt as if someone had tapped me on the forehead.
, holding his head and looking up, he realized that the person who just made the move was actually his father.
But before I had time to speak, I discovered that it wasn't just me, Lin Qianyi and the others were also holding their heads, looking as if they had been beaten just now.
I asked: "Dad, why did you hit us just now?"
"Hit you?" Dad sneered, then turned on the computer next to him and said to us: "What happened just now was captured by the camera. Take a look for yourselves and see what happened to you just now."
After hearing what Dad said, we watched the video on the computer, and we saw that just when Dad finished introducing the functions of the watch and asked us all to put on the watches, the five of us, except
Except for Dad, everyone suddenly seemed to be possessed. Everyone's movements stopped there, motionless, not even blinking. Until Dad patted each of us on the forehead.
, we came to our senses one by one.
After watching the video, Liu Yongqing was the first to speak: "Master Lin, what we just did was..."
"Absence! This is a sign that you have begun to be affected by the oil painting. From the story I just told you should have discovered that if you are not in contact with the oil painting for a long time, there will be no accidents, but if you are around the oil painting for a long time
, the situation you just encountered will occur. And this kind of absence is only the first step for the oil painting to affect you. The longer we stay next to this oil painting, the more hallucinations we will see.
"
"What?" I asked hurriedly, "Dad, what are we waiting for? Why don't we destroy this oil painting quickly?"
Dad shook his head and said: "Sijiu, have you forgotten what happened the day before yesterday? Under normal circumstances, the illusion that oil paintings exert on us gradually increases, but if we reveal our intention to destroy the oil paintings, then it will
The illusion imposed will suddenly become much stronger. Therefore, we can only seize the time to prepare first instead of confronting this oil painting head-on."
As soon as Dad said this, a harsh dog barking suddenly sounded in the room!
