Chapter 597: When the Demon Meets the Devil
He wasn't afraid of these lonely ghosts, if there were one or two, he would basically be able to catch them, but before during the day, I watched one after another, as if I walked into a tour group, you know, if the number of people is particularly large, it is not something I can deal with alone.
Even if a domestic pig is not threatening, but if there are thousands of them, even if you have a kitchen knife to see them, you can't kill them.
Phoenix was very obedient and followed me closely, and when I reached the staircase, I saw a man in his 40s rolling down the stairs, and only the upper half of the man's upper body was cut off from the waist.
The man may have been hit by a car and died, his body was in tatters, his stomach was empty, and many of his internal organs were detached at the top of the stairs.
I'm afraid this is also one of the ghosts that escaped from this teapot.
Seeing the other party, I didn't bother to explain too much, and the superior used the yin and yang sword to directly slash the other party, so that the wild ghost didn't have time to resist, and it broke up in an instant.
I spat out and said, "The wild ghosts here are slowly taking shape, at first we can only see a head, then with a neck, now half of them are now able to recover, if we are here for too long, maybe those lonely ghosts will return to their original condition!" ”
After saying this, we quickened our pace, pulled the phoenix, and hurriedly walked out of the stairs, and when we returned to the entrance of the first floor, we found that there was such a cabinet in the goods that we had overturned, and there was a relatively dark place in front of this cabinet, which we did not find.
But now it's different, when we climbed out of the stairs, we happened to face this cabinet, I looked closer, and found that there were several plates of fruit on top of this cabinet, and in the middle of the fruit, there was a posthumous portrait.
In front of the statue was a small incense burner, and three incense sticks were inserted on the lantern, which had long been extinguished, and the incense burner was full of incense.
I shone the light from my phone on this portrait and found that it was a photo of a man, who was in his 40s in his old age, but his appearance seemed to be somewhat familiar.
Phoenix followed me and looked at the picture for a moment, and then said, "Oh, isn't that old man!" ”
When I heard the phoenix say this, I took a closer look.
It's true, it's a bit similar, it should be said that it is a photo of this old man when he was young, in his 40s, it shouldn't be considered young, but compared with the current old man, there is still a big gap.
Could it be that this old man is already dead?
Or is this photo of the old man's son, in terms of age, even if it is a son, it is very appropriate.
I didn't think there should be such a relationship, but I thought about it carefully, when I first came to this shop, only the two old ladies greeted me, but this old man didn't seem to see me at all.
And I have also done some experiments, such as the phoenix deliberately swaggering to take out the goods in the store from the main entrance, but the old man is holding a broken book and reading it, which is equivalent to turning a blind eye at all.
At that time, Phoenix and I made quite a lot of movement, and it would be impossible for the other party to be in this state if this normal person was in this state.
But if the other party is a soul, then this matter is a bit unreasonable, why can't this soul see the two of us?
To put it bluntly, whether the other party is a human or a ghost, they can see us, unless there is a situation where the other party's body is very weak, so weak that they can't feel the breath around them.
But in this way, since the other party's body is so weak, then it shouldn't be formed, but no matter how we look at it, it's an old man, with all hands and feet, it's a complete circle, and those lonely souls and wild ghosts who only have heads and only upper bodies in the basement are not of the same grade.
There is only one possibility, and that is that the old man is sealed.
The old man may have really died, but after he died, his soul was trapped in it and a part of it was sealed.
Let this old man be huge, but only he can't see or hear, or only let this old man see what others think, so that he can see and hear what others want him to hear.
So who wants to make an ornament for this old man here?
When I thought about it, I went into the counter, and in it, there was an old man in this place all the time, so we had to check it carefully.
I searched around the counter and found nothing, but just as I was about to leave, I saw a book on the counter, a novel by Gu Long, which the old man often read.
I have basically read all the 72 novels written by Gu Long, so I picked up the yellowed book casually, but when I looked at the content of the book, I was stunned and found that what was written in it was not a novel at all, but three words.
The three words are written in the time of the devil.
When is the magic time?
Could it be that this old man left some information on purpose?
I re-read the book, and it turned out that there was no novel on every page of the book, and it was these three words.
Phoenix also curiously took the book and looked at it, and asked, "What is the time of the devil?" ”
I patted the phoenix on the head and replied: "This is a saying from Japan, in China, once it is past 12 midnight, it is the place where people and ghosts meet, but for Japan it is different, usually around 3 pm to 5 pm, this is the time when the sun is about to set, the time when dusk is coming, and it is also the easiest time to see ghosts, so it is called the time of the devil!" ”
Chinese and Japanese cultures are different, each with its own history and history, for example, in ancient China, there are monster legends of the Classic of Mountains and Seas, and in Japan there are also Yin and Yang Qingming paintings of the Hundred Ghosts Night Walk.
Literally, it's the opposite, but in fact, the content is basically the same.
In fact, at best, they are just some legends, and it is unknown whether they can be used in modern times.
I returned the book, anyway, there are only three words on it, even if you are stupid, you will remember it.
I pulled the phoenix and turned to leave, and then we took a taxi back to the hotel.
That night, everyone gathered to talk about the day's explorations, as is customary.
Zhao Feiyan basically didn't have anything to do, investigating a shop of diving supplies, there was nothing particularly noteworthy, but the fat man's side, but it was developing by leaps and bounds.
According to the fat man, after the * lamas rented a cruise ship, they never went out, but stopped at the mouth of the Huangpu River, and continued to go to where to find out in detail, in order to prevent the grass from startling the snake, so the fat man did not act rashly.
