Chapter 74: What a Haunted House
Gong Jian knew that Daniel Zhang's curiosity was much heavier than his own, and he thought that he should have asked for some useful information. Because his usual style is such gossip, he will not arouse the suspicion of others.
Gong Jian put down his phone, and he couldn't help but think of his inexplicable eyes when he saw Lucas at the auction venue that day. It seems that Lucas already knew that Gong Jian had called the police and became wary of him.
With such a powerful enemy all of a sudden, Gong Jian was not nervous. But he was very glad that by accident, he was able to discover Lucas's true face, thanks to the Great Asura.
Because of his father's profession, Gong Jian has always liked antiques, and he can't stand a person who carries out illegal trading of antiques under the guise of liking the classical culture of the Celestial Empire.
His vision became firm, no matter how powerful the enemy, he believed that evil could prevail over good, and no matter how much time and energy it spent, he would expose Lucas and let him be punished by the law.
The bell rings for the doorway downstairs, and it seems that the ordered takeout has been delivered. Gong Jian hurriedly went downstairs, but saw that the three goddesses had already taken the takeaway. Gong Jian touched his nose, so he had to take out his wallet and put the money down, his facial expression had become fascinated, and the courier brother was in his hand. He said, "No need to look for it." And he closed the door.
He needs to communicate with the goddess, since the three of them are in the mortal world, they must try to avoid the opportunity to appear together in front of people. After all, although the three of them have their own characteristics, they can all be called the best in the world.
He didn't want anyone to have any strange associations. As soon as he looked up, he saw Xiaoya beckoning him to go to dinner with him.
So Gong Jian walked into the dining room with her, Qipra and Rafi Soma were already sitting on both sides of the table, and Gong Jian and Xiaoya were also sitting next to the table face to face.
The takeaway has been opened, and the table is filled with grilled chicken, pizza, seafood and vegetable salad. Of course, the main thing is that everyone has a bucket of brewing instant noodles in front of them.
Gong Jian specially ordered a bottle of red wine, and in the curious look of the goddesses, he took out the wine glass and poured a full glass of the sobered red wine for everyone.
Looking around at the three pairs of eyes looking at him, Gong Jian felt that this was not bad, the three goddesses had been with him for nearly two months, he had some understanding of them, and the goddesses had helped him a lot, so let him take this opportunity tonight to express his gratitude to them.
Gong Jian raised his wine glass and saluted the three goddesses: "Welcome to the mortal world, come to my side, thank you for helping me these days." I hope we can get along better in the future. Cheers. “
He stretched out his arm and raised the glass to the middle of the table, and the goddesses did as he did, and everyone's glasses touched together, "Cheers, cheers." “
As the smooth red wine flowed through his mouth, the aroma of grapes overflowed his mouth and nose, and he deliberately chose this wine with a relatively light bitterness and astringency, hoping that the goddess would like it.
Sure enough, after the goddesses drank the first sip of red wine, Xiaoya squinted her eyes and savored the taste of red wine. Chopra stared at the glass with bright eyes, his right hand tapping rhythmically on the tabletop. The most exaggerated is Rafisoma, who has taken the decanter next to her so that she can easily access it at any time.
It seems that red wine is expected to become the favorite drink of the goddesses in the mortal world. The taste of red wine and instant noodles is also incomparable to any mortal.
To Gong Jian's surprise, the three goddesses did not drink very well, and when a bottle of red wine bottomed out, the goddesses collapsed on the table. Rafi Soma didn't fall, he pulled Gong Jian's sleeve and kept nagging:
"You can't harm my sister, you can't hurt my sister, you have to stay away from her, mortals stay away from my sister. ”
Hearing her drunken words, Gong Jian felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, this is not the first time that Rafi Soma reminded him, is it because he is a mortal, so he is not worthy of being by the goddess's side, just because he is a mortal, his feelings are not worth mentioning,
But soon he pulled himself out of this pessimistic mood, he likes Xiao Ya, he knows this very well, so no matter what, Xiao Ya's feelings for him are the most important, and whatever others say, is secondary.
In the Celestial Empire, there have been many stories of gods and mortals falling in love with each other since ancient times. Although there are also tragic endings, after the strong struggle between the two, most of the stories end with two people being able to live happily together.
Gong Jian cheered himself up in his heart, as long as Xiaoya can recognize herself, no matter how difficult it is, the two of them will solve it together, and they will always find a way out of the thorns.
At this time, the moonlight shone in through the window, and the bright moonlight sprinkled on Xiaoya's body, like putting a silver cloak on her.
She slept peacefully, with a sweet smile on her face. This smile successfully soothed Gong Jian's restless heart.
Gong Jian stood up, intending to send the drunk goddesses back to their rooms one by one.
At this moment, there was a strange fluctuation in the room, and the wooden floor kept shaking, causing all the furniture to swing with it. It was as if something was about to break free from under the ground. But soon, the tremor became weaker and weaker, and finally disappeared without a trace.
Such a change made the three goddesses wake up. "What's going on?" Chopra asked first.
Gong Jian only realized at this time that this house was indeed a little weird, as if some unnatural phenomena had happened before.
Originally, Gong Jian felt that Su Youmao's matter had little to do with the goddess, so he didn't tell them about it. And because he hadn't noticed anything unusual at all, he had already forgotten the legend of the "haunted house", and now he remembered it.
He told the goddesses about the origin of the house and the strangeness of what he had heard.
Aishwarya closed her eyes and felt it for a while, then she patted Gong Jian's arm soothingly: "I seem to feel the divine power of the great god Brahma, but it is very weak. Gong Jian, you wait for us first, and the three of us will work together to see if we can find the source. ”
As she spoke, she stretched out her hands, and the three goddesses joined hands to form a circle. They slowly closed their eyes and muttered inaudible words. The light gradually rose, enveloping the figures of the three goddesses.
Gong Jian looked at the three goddesses beside him, and he secretly wondered, how could it be the divine power of the great god Brahma? Recently, he seemed to be very close to this great god, and he could always find his traces. Not at all like the divine realm said, the great god Brahma has disappeared for hundreds of years without a trace.
While he was still thinking nonsense, the light around the goddesses slowly converged. The figure of the goddess appeared in front of Gong Jian's eyes again, and the light between the three of them shrouded a square metal part.
