Chapter 88: The Strange Tower
The old monk sat cross-legged on the futon. He looked at the big Buddha with half of his body missing in front of him, clasped his hands together and said "Amitabha".
In front of the old monk, there is a coffin for three people. The coffin is black and wrapped with twelve black chains. The chains are as long as an adult's arm and look rusty.
At this moment, four chains have been broken.
Bang~
Suddenly a crisp sound sounded, and a black chain on the coffin broke inexplicably. The coffin shook slightly, but it soon returned to calm.
The old monk looked at this scene with a very calm expression. He lowered his head and said nothing.
......
"Yu Qian, next time if you have any taboos, could you tell Ye earlier, instead of waiting until we all arrive before you tell Ye? Just like this time, if you If you tell Ye in advance, won’t Ye stop ringing the bell?”
“Is this true?”
In the darkness, Ye Zhen looked at Yu Qian with his head held high and said.
Hearing what Ye Zhen said, Yu Qian fell silent. After a long while, he said, "Okay, I will tell you the taboos at the next stop. Listen carefully."< br>
"Old Building Taboo 1..."
Looking at Yu Qian's slightly moving throat bones, Ye Zhen was sure that Yu Qian was speaking, but why was there no sound?
"Yu Qian, are you talking?" Ye Zhen asked doubtfully.
"Otherwise? Did you hear what I just said?" Yu Qian looked at Ye Zhen and asked.
"I just heard you say that you want to tell me the taboos of the next stop, and the rest can't be heard." Ye Zhen touched his chin; "Why is this?"
"It's normal. There are taboos in some places that cannot be said. If you say it, it will attract evil spirits. In some places, the taboos cannot be said at all. Come out, just like our next stop."
"We generally don't reveal the taboos of such a supernatural place."
"Because of the people who control it. Most of them have died of old age, and the most dangerous place is the supernatural place where no one manages it.”
"The same situation is almost the same in the ghost temple. The old monk is about to die. Before, I could tell you the taboo. I thought that the old monk died not long ago and there would be no accidents, so I could tell you. But now it seems, The old monk is not dead at all."
Yu Qian touched most of his recovered clothes and was silent for a while before continuing:
"The scarier and weirder the place, their rules. The situation is getting weirder. The mass grave we entered before was like this. The old man is not dead yet. No matter how big a trouble we make in the mass grave, there will be no terrible consequences."
"But then. If the old man dies, based on our previous behavior at the mass grave, the mass grave may directly invade reality."
"This is a possible consequence of nonsense."
"That's why I told you not to be so impulsive."
"That's it." Ye Zhen suddenly realized.
"In addition, there is another reason why I don't tell you the taboo in advance, because I don't know if there are ghosts with that type of memory in the place we go."
"If we are lucky It's unfortunate that you encounter a place with such a powerful ghost. Once I tell you the taboos in advance, you can It may directly cause us to be noticed by the evil spirit, and then be forcibly pulled into that place."
"So, I usually tell you the taboos after I arrive at the place and confirm the situation inside. , instead of telling you the taboos outside," Yu Qian said calmly.
There are taboos in some places that cannot be spoken out. Yu Qian knows a fierce ghost. The rules of that ghost are quite strange. When one person tells the second person the rules of that fierce ghost, the two people will directly become a living person. The person in Li Gui's memory.
So this also resulted in zero chance of the devil being imprisoned.
The sites Yu Qian and Ye Zhen are going to this time are basically the territories of the old people of the Republic of China.
Most of those old people are dead, and Yu Qian doesn’t dare to gamble on them.
His chance of becoming an outlier lies in these sites.
If his visit this time was in vain because of this little detail, then he would regret it to death.
"Is there such a thing?" Ye Zhen seemed very surprised. It was obviously the first time he heard that such a thing existed.
Yu Qian didn’t say much. The items that can make him a different kind of person are more or less related to memory. Even if they are not, they can still be used as an auxiliary.
It is not easy to be an outlier.
And sometimes, the more you know, the more you can only remain silent.
In this broken place, there are all kinds of strange ghosts and objects.
If you are not careful, no matter how strong you are, you will die here.
Seeing that Yu Qian was silent, Ye Zhen finally understood. He looked at the darkness ahead, his eyes flickering slightly.
"Then what is the main goal of our next stop?"
"Except for that painting in that old building, don't touch the rest if you can." Yu Qian said.
"Understood." Ye Zhen nodded and wrote down the goal.
The supernatural land is so weird, Ye Zhen thinks it’s better for him to be a little safer.
......
Under the dim sky, on a country road, two young men appeared side by side.
“That’s the building?”
Ye Zhen looked at a very conspicuous old building in an old building area ahead.
That old building is much taller than the other old buildings and is also in good condition.
"Well, now we can talk about the taboos inside. After we enter, we will appear on the top floor."
"Our target is on the fifth floor, but there may be some problems. Wait. Let’s go in and see what’s going on.”
“It’s still the same rule, you can kill ghosts, but don’t touch the supernatural objects inside.”
"But here, it's okay to touch it. The scariest ghost inside is the evil ghost wandering in the building."
"You can beat me," Yu Qian said.
"If you say that, does it mean that Ye can be more casual?" Ye Zhen looked at Yu Qian and asked.
“It can be said that the weirdest thing about this building is that the building itself is a ghost, and the other thing is the ghost running around.”
“Pay attention to it. There will be no problem." Yu Qian nodded.
This ghost building is not as scary as the ghost temple.
The purpose of their coming here is the derivative painting of the ghost painting that was left here.
That worked for him.
"OK, so Ye will know what to do."
The two of them didn't talk nonsense and walked quickly towards the old building to get the painting early. , they should go to the next location early.
In the endless cemetery, an old man holding a lantern stood in front of a large red grave.
He looked at the red tombstone made of straw, thought for a moment, and took out a painting.
"That kid seems to be looking for the scarecrow."
Recalling the feeling that the kid gave him, the scarecrow's supernatural powers seemed to be somewhat incomplete.
Very weak.
"Since it has been released, I will release this half as well. The evil ghosts that are dealt with by someone are always more useful than being buried in graves."
The old man said that he had already made up his mind. There was a chill in the air.
The big tomb in front of me cracked open, and an eyeless red scarecrow walked out of the big tomb.
The old man reached out and grabbed the scarecrow by the neck, and then stuffed it into the painting in his hand.
Wow~
The scarecrow was forced into the painting without any room for resistance.
As the scarecrow entered the painting, the painting immediately began to spontaneously combust.
The old man let go of the hand holding the painting, looked at the painting that turned into ashes after a while, turned around and left the cemetery expressionlessly.
The big red tomb sank quickly, as did the tombstones and tributes.
Don’t you like to cause trouble?
It's okay, I'll get one for you too. I'm about to die anyway, so it's good to vent my anger.
The old man walked out of the cemetery and walked into the cabin very calmly.
It was as if nothing had happened.
In the dark corridor, Yu Qian walked downstairs.
The walls are a gloomy color and the ceiling is dirty.
There were some blood stains on the ground.
Yu Qian walked down the stairs with his hands behind his back and a very calm expression.
Looking at the footprints ahead, one thing can be seen.
Ye Zhen has never lacked patience when it comes to fighting.
You won’t feel bored either.
Yu Qian believed that he did not have this kind of character.
He is extremely tired of repeating the same thing.
For example, he finds it boring to fight with evil ghosts all the time.
What is a ghost?
Many people are thinking that Wang Xiaoming has his own set of understandings.
He also has more than a thousand.
It is a rule to be a ghost. Anyone who violates this rule, even if he is a ghost, will be attacked.
Rules never die, the only thing that can deal with them is another rule.
You can survive by avoiding triggering the rules.
Look, does this mean that ghosts will not die? The only ones who can deal with ghosts are ghosts. Observe the laws of ghosts. Do these three laws look the same?
Therefore, fighting with evil ghosts is very boring.
Looking at the footprints on the stairs and the faint sound coming from downstairs, Yu Qian smiled.
Suddenly, Yu Qian tilted his head slightly, and a hand stretched out from the wall grabbed an empty space.
The arms shook and kept grabbing at Yu Qian.
Unfortunately, Yu Qian had already walked downstairs.
Yu Qian was extremely disapproving of the hand that suddenly stretched out from the wall.
I have encountered him many times along the way.
Just get a little closer to the wall here and this will happen.
It’s normal, just pay a little attention.
As long as the person does not walk against the wall, there will be no arms appearing on the entire wall.
It's very simple.
Dodging several arms, Yu Qian looked at the floor. The twenty-fourth floor was still a little far away from the fifth floor.
Glancing at an elevator not far away, Yu Qian thought for a moment, reached out and took out a straw and threw it on the ground.
Then a new Yu Qian appeared, wearing a peaked cap.
He just glanced at Yu Qian, and then walked towards the elevator.
A small area of red light was mapped out.
Yu Qian pressed the elevator button and started waiting for the elevator to arrive.
The numbers on the floors are changing.
After Yu Qian glanced at it, he no longer hesitated and walked downstairs.
Because Ye Zhen was walking in front of him, he didn't encounter any ghosts along the way and soon reached the nineteenth floor.
Standing in the corridor on the 19th floor, Yu Qian walked to the door of room number three.
After thinking about it, he knocked on the door.
"Is there anyone there?"
Dong dong dong~
The knock on the door and the question sounded together, echoing in the silent corridor.
No one answered.
"I came in when there was no one around."
Squeak, Yu Qian pushed open the door to the room, but it was not locked.
Walking into the room, Yu Qian caught a glimpse of some black ashes on the ground.
“It looks like it’s here.”
After closing the door, Yu Qian looked at the situation in the room.
The room was very empty, with no furniture, and even the wall plaster and floor were not finished.
In the middle of the room, there was only a dirty bed.
Yu Qian looked at the bed, hesitated for a moment, squatted down and looked under the bed.
The two eyes met, and a smile appeared on Yu Qian's lips.
"Interesting."
Yu Qian stood up, leaned against the wall, and just looked at the darkness under the bed.
This evil ghost has a very low level of terror, but its killing patterns are extremely dangerous.
Its pattern is on that bed.
If he guessed correctly, there is a bed in this room in the entire building.
As long as you sleep in the bed, you will die.
And this fierce ghost grows by killing people. Even if it is controlled by someone, and the person controlling it kills people, as long as the ghost's supernatural power is used, it will grow.
This is a ghost that will definitely become an S-level ghost given time.
But unfortunately, it is now restricted here.
"Do you want to take it away?" Yu Qian began to think about this question.
...
Ding bell~
The elevator opened, and Yu Qian, who was wearing a hat, looked at the slightly gray elevator and squinted his eyes.
Looking at a woman standing in the elevator with her head lowered and her back to him.
Yu Qian thought for a while and walked in.
Entering the elevator, Yu Qian saw the elevator button through the elevator's reflection.
Then he pressed the fifth floor with his hands behind his back.
The elevator closed and the lights in the elevator began to flicker.
Yu Qian lowered his head, looking very calm.
It was just a ride in the elevator with a fierce ghost. It was a very common thing, I don’t know what the fuss was about.
The elevator began to descend, and the blood-red numbers began to beat rapidly.
“Twenty-four…”
“Ten…”
“One…”
“0…”
< br>
The moment it reached zero, the speed of the elevator suddenly accelerated a lot.
“-2…”
“-5…”
“-7…”
For the acceleration of the elevator and the change of floors , Yu Qian turned a blind eye.
Ding~
Suddenly the elevator trembled violently and then stopped.
Stab~
A bloody long sword suddenly inserted through the gap in the elevator door.
The elevator door was forcibly opened, and an expressionless young man stood at the door of the elevator.
"Why are you taking the elevator? When the elevator started just now, Ye thought a ghost was coming down."
Ye Zhen looked at Yu Qian who was wearing a hat. Although Yu Qian's back was turned to him, he couldn't see face, but he recognized the hat immediately.
When he saw the hat, Ye Zhen also knew that this Yu Qian was not the real Yu Qian.
"Hurry up if you can. I'll go down first and you can clean up after yourself." Yu Qian said.
"Alright."
Ye Zhen nodded and didn't care. After retreating from the elevator, Ye Zhen turned around and continued going downstairs.
Ye Zhenmang went over, and this time he was right, because he had to attract the fierce ghost.
As for him, he went to pick up the paintings and acted separately, with a clear division of labor. (End of this chapter)
