Chapter 1536 Abnormal Zhou Deng
Just when Li Yue and others returned to the back hall to continue their vigil, there was a man wandering around outside.
This person is holding a white lantern in one hand, with a large black character "Dian" written on it;
The white lantern emits light in the dim environment, a kind of The pale light is very strange, but it can illuminate the road ahead.
The other hand also held a stick of incense.
The incense stick is burning, exuding a fragrance that lingers.
This person is none other than Zhou Deng.
"I won't take it if I don't want it? You don't know if I take it secretly. Besides, if others get there first, wouldn't I suffer a big loss?"
Zhou Deng thought secretly proudly.
Although Li Yue and Yang Jian had repeatedly warned him not to touch the things in the old house, they were worried that it would break the balance of the old house.
But Zhou Deng turned around and took action quietly.
However, he had some sense. He did not take away all the incense in front of the coffin or the lantern on the door of the old house.
After getting the things, Zhou Deng walked out of the old house through the door in the back hall just as Li Yue guessed.
Zhou Deng also knew that staying in the old house would be dangerous, but walking out of the old house might be safer.
Of course this is just a gamble.
If he guesses wrong, he will also be attacked by a ghost.
However, Zhou Deng is confident in his own methods and can deal with it even if he encounters danger outside his old house.
At least have the ability to escape.
After Zhou Deng walked out of the back hall, he found that the path under his feet was not the same as the road leading to the gate.
Looking at the path under his feet, Zhou Deng hesitated a little;
This road is very strange, it is paved with yellow soil, not a single weed grows on it, and the soil is very new, as if it had been repaired a few days ago.
“The owner of the ancient house must have a special intention to build a road here;
Maybe along this road, you can find a way out of here, and you may also find the ancient house. What kind of treasure has the master buried?”
Zhou Deng’s eyes rolled, and he was thinking about some strange ideas.
After a brief thought, Zhou Deng entered the old forest along the winding path.
"The trees along the way have been cut down."
As he went deeper, Zhou Deng discovered that there were still some tree stumps in the middle of the road.
As you can imagine, a considerable price was spent to build this yellow mud road.
But Zhou Deng didn’t think much about it and continued to walk forward holding the white lantern.
As we continue to go deeper, the surroundings become darker and darker.
In the end, even the nearby woods were shrouded in darkness in Zhou Deng's eyes, leaving only a vague outline.
There is only one yellow mud road extending forward, as if there is no end.
Seeing this, Zhou Deng couldn't help but stop;
"A weird road that never ends? Do you want to turn around and go back?"
His brows furrowed He frowned, his eyes full of thinking.
But he soon shook his head and gave up the idea.
"It may not be safe to return to the old house at this time. Besides, we have come so far. If we give up now, all our efforts will be wasted."
Thinking of this, Zhou Deng immediately made a decision.
I saw him walking forward again.
Just like this, Zhou Deng didn’t know how long he had walked. He couldn’t calculate the time or recalculate the distance.
Because except for the yellow mud path at your feet, there is no reference around.
If ordinary people were in this environment, they would have collapsed long ago.
But Zhou Deng did not.
He is still moving forward.
Not knowing how far he had gone, Zhou Deng suddenly noticed that the old trees around the yellow mud road were gradually becoming sparse.
Zhou Deng's eyes suddenly flashed with excitement.
This change probably means that he is about to reach the end.
This is indeed the case.
Zhou Deng soon came to an empty place.
This open space is a circle, covered with yellow soil, surrounded by dense old forests, and no other paths have been found.
The end is here.
Although Zhou Deng did not find a way to leave, he was not too disappointed.
Because he found other things here, maybe he can get something special here.
Thinking of this, Zhou Deng immediately took the lantern and walked towards the location where he had just discovered the abnormality.
As he got closer, he finally saw it clearly.
But there are several graves.
These tombs are old and new;
Some look like they are many years old, some look like they were from a few years ago, and some even feel like they were newly built.
Zhou Deng also discovered that there were tombstones in front of these tombs, with names and portraits on them, and there were sacrifices placed in front of the tombstones.
Zhou Deng came to an earth tomb with a lantern, and he took the lantern to shine.
The pale lantern light dispelled the darkness, revealing a portrait.
The portrait is of a strange man;
It just doesn’t look like the man he is today, because the clothes he wore when the photo was taken were very old-fashioned, but he looks very young, quite a bit hansome.
"It's a pity that such a handsome man died here."
Zhou Deng then looked at the sacrifice in front of the tomb, which was white rice in a blue and white porcelain bowl.
It's just that the rice is stiff, like it's undercooked.
A strange color suddenly flashed in Zhou Deng's eyes.
I saw him immediately put the lantern in his hand next to him, and then stretched out a hand to get the bowl of white rice in front of the tombstone.
But Zhou Deng did not notice that just when he bent down and stretched out his hand, the eyes of the man in the portrait on the tombstone started to move strangely.
Also looked down his hand.
It was like staring at Zhou Deng's movements.
“Pa~!”
But just when Zhou Deng’s hand was about to touch the bowl of white rice, he suddenly withdrew his hand and slapped himself .
"Zhou Deng, Zhou Deng, you know there is danger here but you still dare to reach out and pick up things. What if you provoke some kind of curse and are targeted by evil spirits?"
If Li Yue saw this scene, his jaw would probably drop in shock.
Zhou Deng's greed had been seen by everyone when he was on the bus.
The offerings in front of the tombstone are obviously not ordinary things, otherwise they would not have been stored for such a long time.
With Zhou Deng’s character, no one would be surprised to see such a thing and reach out to take it away.
But now when he was about to succeed, Zhou Deng actually gave up.
This is so disrespectful.
Of course, Zhou Deng's brain circuit is different from ordinary people, and he often does unexpected things.
At this time Zhou Deng picked up the lantern that he had put down again and no longer touched the bowl of sacrifices.
And just after Zhou Deng gave up making sacrifices, the man in the portrait on the tombstone slowly looked back, and everything seemed to be back to normal.
All this happened quietly, and Zhou Deng was not aware of it at all.
At this time Zhou Deng came to the second grave with a lantern.
The portrait on the tombstone of the second tomb is of a very beautiful woman.
She has waist-length hair, a smile, and is wearing a cheongsam. Unfortunately, the photo is black and white, so I can’t tell what color the cheongsam is.
“It’s such a pity that someone so beautiful died.”
Looking at the woman in the portrait, a look of pity flashed in Zhou Deng’s eyes.
It seems that he really feels sorry for this woman.
But the next sentence once again exposed Zhou Deng's true nature:
"That cheongsam seems good, I wonder if it was buried in the grave."
At this moment, Zhou Deng Deng suddenly slapped himself again, and then said:
"Zhou Deng, Zhou Deng, you can't be like this. You want to dig up the grave of such a beautiful beauty, and even want to take off the dead man's clothes. Is this appropriate?"
Then Zhou Deng looked at the tomb with some reluctance.
Obviously, Zhou Deng was still a little bit reluctant about not digging the grave to get the things.
But in the end he held back and did not take action.
Just when he was about to walk towards the next grave without seeing it, Zhou Deng's footsteps suddenly stopped.
He found that there was also a bowl of rice placed in front of this tomb.
It’s just that this bowl of rice seems to be less than the previous bowl in front of the first tomb, as if the sacrifice inside was eaten by something.
Seeing this, the reluctance in Zhou Deng's eyes suddenly disappeared without a trace.
On the contrary, he looked around cautiously.
Normally, no one would touch these things, but now they are strangely missing, which makes Zhou Deng a little suspicious.
It wasn’t until he was sure that there was nothing else hiding around that he relaxed a little. (End of this chapter)
