Chapter 104 Love Letter
This boudoir is actually not big. Standing at the door, you can see everything at a glance.
As for the furnishings, there aren’t many.
The bed, the dressing table, the large cabinet, the washbasin, there are calligraphy and paintings on the wall, and there is a bronze dressing mirror on the table, basically these things.
It wouldn't be difficult to search the place thoroughly.
The problem is, there is a fierce ghost entrenched here.
A very fierce ghost.
Currently, I don’t know the true identity of this evil ghost. I can only see many white ribbons hanging from it.
When the ghost attacks, Bai Ling will fall down, wrap around the neck, hang the person up, and strangle him alive.
Normal people, no matter what their physical fitness, cannot cope with it with their own strength. They can only use the 'Purana Sutra' and the 'Buddha Beads' to offset the attack of the evil ghost.
However, there is a limit to the number of times this offset can occur.
If the attack frequency of Li Gui is too high, the time given to them to search the boudoir will be very limited.
So we must seize the time.
Luo Xi did not rummage around, he scanned the boudoir, observed, and at the same time carefully analyzed where there would be clues.
Because before this, Luo Xi had already learned some key information from Dou Cao Gui Lao Cao.
The most powerful and dangerous ghost in this level scene is the 'eldest lady'. The eldest lady was pregnant with a child, but died in vain. This made her extremely resentful, and finally turned into a ghost on the night of her return and started killing people.
The wife, the maid, and the master who recited sutras have all been harmed by it.
But the eldest lady’s resentment still lingers.
In other words, she wants to kill someone.
So, who does she want to kill?
This level scene is very large. Luo Xi knows that they have only explored part of the area here, so there may be people hiding in other places. If they can get some clues from the eldest lady's boudoir, it will be helpful for them to pass this level scene. play a decisive role.
Luo Xi's heart moved at this time. He walked to the dressing table and looked at the furnishings on it.
Bronze mirrors, some things for women, such as wooden combs, open the delicate drawers, you can see rouge, gouache, gold and silver jewelry and the like.
Just a cursory scan, and indeed there is no clue.
At this moment, Brother Mao shouted: "Here we go again, be careful!"
At this time, Brother Mao's value has been fully realized.
Because he can sense resentment, Brother Mao can predict in advance if a ghost is approaching or has evil intentions.
This gives everyone time to fully prepare.
For example, you can squat down in advance to find cover and avoid those white silks. You can stay away from the hanged corpse of Zhou Fang in advance to avoid being attacked by it after it transforms into a corpse.
This time, not only did Bai Ling fall, the body changed, and another figure appeared among Bai Ling.
It appeared to be a hanged woman.
"Death, you are all going to die!"
The woman screamed.
Luo Xi only used a 'rebirth mantra' to deal with it.
But this time, he couldn’t even recite one sentence, he recited two sentences.
"Namo Amitabha Night, Duotagadu Night"
The female ghost's attack was resolved. However, two of the beads in her hand were broken at once.
“Trouble!”
Luo Xi frowned.
The hanging female ghost can increase the attack strength. If you want to resolve it, you have to pay twice as much as before.
Now, there are only seven beads left.
It’s hard to say how long we can keep going like this.
Maybe next time, it may all be broken.
“Hurry up!”
Luo Xi shouted.
"I found something!"
Ke Lan said over there, and immediately took something and jumped off the bed in the boudoir.
This guy was hiding inside just now, and he was not afraid of bad luck.
“There are letters!”
In his hand, he did hold a stack of letters, including several.
Luo Xi immediately took it and opened it to read.
My eyes lit up immediately.
"It should be this!"
Letters or love letters are more appropriate. These are written by someone to the eldest lady. The words in them reveal love and longing. Of course, if it is modern, Women may not take these sweet words seriously, but the setting of the eldest lady is that of a wealthy lady who never leaves the house in ancient times, so it is inevitable that she will be breached and fall.
Luo Xi quick view.
I already have a preliminary plan in mind.
At this time, Luo Xi shoved the scriptures and Buddhist beads in his hand to Brother Mao.
"The ghost will come soon, chanting sutras and twisting beads."
After saying that, he directly picked up his mobile phone to light up, opened all the letters, and asked Ke Lan to continue looking for clues.
Maybe there are.
Or maybe not.
But there’s no harm in looking for it.
Not to mention Brother Mao, who is under great pressure, and not to mention Ke Lan and Hou Cheng who are rummaging through boxes and cabinets, Luo Xi is checking the letters as fast as possible at this time, and some of them will pick them up and check them carefully.
Soon, the corners of his mouth raised, revealing a meaningful smile.
“That’s it. I just said, this guy was hesitant before and seemed to be hiding something”
The next moment, the dark wind howled.
“Here we come, everyone, be careful!” Brother Mao’s voice was nervous.
Obviously, this attack may be different from the previous one.
Otherwise Brother Mao wouldn’t react like this.
At the same time, there were crying sounds from around.
At first I was choking, but then the sadness seemed to get the better of me, and I started to burst into tears.
Accompanied by a woman crying: "Miss, if you leave, I won't live anymore."
"It was them who harmed you, madam, that smelly monk from Longlong Temple, It's you, that shameless, ungrateful person who always gave up and always gave up. He betrayed you. , Miss."
"I want to avenge Miss, I want to kill all the men in the world, kill, kill, kill"
The sense of terror and danger is almost like countless sharp knives , stabbed from all directions, making people's hair stand on end and their heart beating wildly.
Brother Mao finally started chanting sutras.
This time, he recited four sentences before it had any effect.
The surrounding darkness began to dissipate, countless Bai Lings also retracted, and the hanging corpses returned to calm, but Luo Xi knew that they had no trump cards to resist the next attack from the ghost.
Because the remaining seven beads in Brother Mao’s hand were all broken at once at this moment!
Including the ones that were just cracked before, they were also broken, leaving only a rope.
"Luo Xi, what should I do?" Brother Mao was also worried.
Obviously, they have no choice but to withdraw at this time, otherwise they will die without a burial place the next time the ghost attacks them.
"Luo Xi, come here and take a look." Ke Lan suddenly shouted at this time, his voice trembling with fear. Apparently, he had made another discovery.
Compared to Hou Cheng, who has been doing nothing since he came in, Ke Lan's observation ability is obviously stronger. It was this guy who found the previous letter, saying it was from the mattress under the bed. Find it in the mezzanine.
If you are not careful and observant, it is impossible to discover it.
Luo Xi walked over quickly.
"What's wrong?"
"Look in the bronze mirror." Ke Lan's face was pale. It was obvious that this discovery made him unbelievable and extremely scared.
Luo Xi looked at the bronze mirror on the dressing table over there. Luo Xi had observed this bronze mirror at first, but it was foggy. After all, the light in the room was not good, and the reflection of the bronze mirror was far inferior to modern times. It's normal to see clearly in the mirror.
But looking at it now, the bronze mirror is much clearer. The main reason is that the candlelight can be seen in the bronze mirror.
There is no candlelight in the room, but there is in the room in the mirror. Not only is there candlelight, but you can also see a woman combing her hair inside.
The woman has a graceful figure and long, shiny black hair shawl her shoulders, but she is sitting with her back to the mirror.
On the table next to me, there are candles.
A little further back, there seemed to be a maid standing, but because the candlelight was quite dim, I couldn't see clearly.
It's normal for Ke Lan to be pale, because in this situation, the scene in the mirror is very strange, and it's almost easy to guess that the person combing her hair is the young lady, and the person standing next to her is the maid.
Based on what Bai Ling's hanged ghost screamed out just now, "Miss, if you leave, I won't live anymore" and "I want to avenge the miss", then we can reasonably guess that now The ghost that the helpless Bai Ling hangs is the lady's maid.
The real master is in the mirror, so it’s strange that Ke Lan is not afraid.
The lady in the mirror just combed her hair quietly, once, and again, and made no other movements.
As for Luo Xi and the others, Bai Ling's attack from the hanging ghost may come at any time.
Because all the prayer beads have been broken, they have no ability to resist.
The best option is to get out quickly.
Immediately, immediately!
What's more, Luo Xi has found a crucial 'clue'.
But the scene in the mirror at this moment seems to indicate something else.
Luo Xi is not an indecisive person, let alone entangled.
He made a decision almost instantly.
"Run, get out of here first."
"Ah!" When Ke Lan heard this, he immediately said: "But in this mirror, there are obviously new clues, maybe related to clearing the level."
“Run, hold the mirror and run together!”
Luo Xi took action and hugged the bronze mirror directly in his arms. Ke Lan was stunned when he saw this. When he realized what happened, Luo Xi had already run to the door.
He hurriedly chased after him.
As for Hou Cheng, the moment Luo Xi said to run, he had already rushed out. He was really frightened. It would be huge for him to stay in this haunted boudoir for one more second. torture.
After rushing outside, he pressed his beating chest and took a deep breath.
“I will never challenge this difficulty level of ten people again.”
Hou Cheng kept mumbling, and he knew without asking that the last time he escaped from the haunted house, the difficulty was definitely incomparable to the current one.
Looking back, in the open room, you can vaguely see a woman hanging from the roof beam, swaying, smiling at the people outside.
The next moment, the door of the house closed with a bang.
Wu Rui and Guo Zening, who were waiting outside, also saw this scene and their scalps went numb.
As for the scholar they were looking at, his whole body was shaking like chaff, his face was pale, and he was sitting paralyzed on the ground.
"Hel him up!"
Luo Xi said.
Wu Rui and Guo Zening immediately put the scholar up.
Luo Xi first handed the bronze mirror to Ke Lan. Ke Lan was shocked, but he didn't dare not accept it. But when he held it, it was like holding a hot potato, and his expression was extremely painful.
Tearing off the cloth bag from the scholar's body, Luo Xi opened it and looked at it.
There are pen and ink, paper, some books, clothes and broken silver inside.
Open the paper, there are words on it, they should be written by scholars.
He took out the letters found in the boudoir, opened them, and put them together for comparison.
"The handwriting is the same!"
Luo Xi could confirm it almost at a glance.
As for the scholar, when Luo Xi took out those love letters, his eyes widened with extreme fear.
"You are the one who has an affair with the eldest lady!"
"I"
"Shh!" Luo Xi made a gesture to shut up: "No You need to explain, and I don’t have time to listen. A selfish person who deceives others, or even the other person died in vain after being pregnant with your child, can still feel nothing. The person who suggested that your aunt burn the body and destroy the body is most likely a lie. But you are very smart. You talked in circles before, and none of the key points were mentioned, so what you said was the truth, but it almost fooled you. Killed me."
The scholar's face was pale, with a hint of resentment hidden in addition to fear.
Others reacted when they heard Luo Xi's words.
"Damn it, it's this bastard. I'm so stupid. Hand him over and let the female ghost kill him. This way, the female ghost lady will calm down and she will definitely let us out." Hou When Cheng Yi heard it, he was overjoyed.
“For a beast-like thing, even death will be considered an advantage for him.” Wu Rui also had no sympathy for people like scholars.
After everyone found out that this scholar was actually the heartless man who deceived the female ghost, they felt sad and relieved at the same time.
The fighting grass ghost said that if you want to escape from here, you can only let the eldest lady relieve her resentment. The other party has already killed the madam, and now he can also kill the heartless man. It is absolutely possible To offset the resentment in the female ghost's heart.
In this way, it is possible to pass the customs.
"I'm afraid it's not that simple!" Luo Xi said at this time: "If you hand this scholar over to the eldest lady, can you really make her calm down?"
"Otherwise?" Hou Cheng At this time, he asked: "The situation is very clear now. It was the scholar who failed the eldest lady and was ruthless and unjust. Therefore, the eldest lady became a resentful ghost after her death. That's why. It is said that the eldest lady is asked to kill the scholar, and she will let us go away from that old Cao. Isn’t that what Old Cao said? Yes, to satisfy the eldest lady, he said revenge is just a way to satisfy the eldest lady. Let me ask you, if she kills the scholar, will she not be satisfied?" Luo Xi asked back.
Hou Cheng hesitated for a long time and couldn't answer the question "this".
Because the eldest lady is not satisfied, this possibility completely exists.
Others also understood that Luo Xi's worries were not unfounded, so they also fell silent.
“The scholar still has to be handed over to the female ghost. However, this level scene needs to continue to be explored. I feel that we have not explored enough here. For example, among the four ghosts, we have only come into contact with three of them. In the current situation, you can pass the level without touching the fourth ghost, so why do you need to set up a fourth ghost? Or is it just to make up the numbers? , just to increase the difficulty of the scene and add a dangerous point"
"Of course, it may be that I think too much, but sometimes, I would rather do a 'saturation rescue' and do a little more than It is better to clear the scene, even if it turns out to be useless, than to do less and fall short." Everyone agreed with Luo Xi's words.
"Now you all wait for me and stare at the scholar."
After Luo Xi finished speaking, he walked towards Ke Lan.
The latter was still holding the bronze mirror and did not dare to look down at all.
Ke Lan is quite capable. When he was avoiding Bai Ling just now, he was the fastest among all the people and his reflexes were sharp. He must have practiced something like parkour or fighting. In short, he has an excellent physique. Observation and analytical skills are not weak either.
The courage seemed very small, but Luo Xi could see that the other party was acting and exaggerating.
Just this bronze mirror, if you throw it to Hou Cheng, the other party may faint.
That is true cowardice.
Be clumsy, smart people always like to do this, understand!
So for the next thing, it is most suitable for Ke Lan to cooperate.
Luo Xi walked closer and looked down at the bronze mirror.
It could be said to be a strange scene. Even after leaving the house, the scene in the bronze mirror was still exactly the same as when it was in the house.
Of course, it's not exactly the same. The eldest lady in the mirror has turned around and is looking at Luo Xi with extremely cold eyes.
Asking for monthly tickets at the beginning of the month!
