Chapter 52: The Flower of the Other Side
Mr. He was in a hurry, coughed violently several times, covered his mouth and shook his head, and explained to me vigorously, saying that there was no more, for fear that I would guess what was inside.
However, his anxious appearance made me more sure that maybe there was something unspeakable hidden inside.
Could that be what I want?
If He Yunhu and I were looking for the same thing, it would make sense.
I am afraid that it will not be a day or two since He Yunhu has been staring at Meng Yunyin, and if I can find this treatment, the legendary Xuanyuan Yiran will definitely be able to find it, so He Yunhu will take the first step and want to steal the antidote first, and then act, so it is not impossible.
I didn't treat Mr. He again, but took the initiative to go to his room where the treasure was hidden. Mr. He didn't suspect me, so he took me with him.
However, there was no trace left in that room, and I heard Mr. He say that the thief's actions were very meticulous, and there was no change here before and after he came, and even the cabinet that Mr. He had taken before he fell down was wiped clean by him.
But this is not right, He Yunhu is half-blind, and at night, his eyes are even more difficult, no different from being completely blind, so he can't actually see what Mr. He helped before he fell.
Of course, I have already seen He Yunhu's ability, his eyes are not good, and he probably focuses on exercising his ears, but if this is the case, how can he come and go freely in a completely unfamiliar environment? Are you still very sure that what he is looking for is not on the surface, and he will rummage through the cabinets to find it as soon as he comes up?
I suddenly had a bad premonition in my heart, I'm afraid that Mr. He's house is not clean......
When I say this uncleanness, I don't mean that there are any little ghosts hidden in it, but I mean that the human heart is the most unpredictable thing in the world today.
Speaking of this, I thought of the third master again, in fact, when I was a child, the third master told me a lot of things, but at that time it was too small, my mind was not on the words of the third master, I was thinking about going out to play, and what I said to the third master, I only remember a few words.
However, since the third master died, what he said and did before came back to my mind little by little as if he was playing a videotape.
For example, the third master once hugged me and told a story, saying that when he was not in our village before, he went to a place, and he forgot what the specific name of that place was, but he remembered that the reason why he went to that place was because a big family was cursed, and almost every two days someone in the family died, and the death was ugly, it looked like he was hanged, but in fact, in addition to the mark on his neck, there was another one.
Apparently, the men were strangled and then hanged. However, it is precisely because of such a regular death that there is no definite evidence, and some people always say that they have seen strange things, and this thing has become a haunt of evil spirits.
It is precisely because of this that the third master was invited to exorcise evil spirits.
But the third master investigated for several days, but he didn't find any signs of evil ghosts, but let him find that a young master of this big family was secretive and suspicious.
But this man looks cowardly on the outside, and because of his good nature, he is very compatible with everyone in the family.
The head of that family is old, which means that the family will soon be renewed and replaced by a new head of the family.
The third master followed behind the young master, and found that after the young master walked to the path where there was no one, he suddenly began to cry, and ran all the way to a family's house, and the son of that family was an important candidate for the family.
That day, there was no one in their house, only the son was at home, and the young master ran in crying all the way, saying that he had hit a ghost. The young man was also real, and he went out with a broom to help him catch out the so-called "ghost", but as soon as he turned around, the young master suddenly pulled his belt and strangled the young man's neck!
The young man never thought that the young master, who usually looked weak, would use his belt to strangle people to death......
The third master hid in the shadows, and watched with his own eyes that the little young master, who usually looked harmless to humans and animals, strangled people to death at once, and then hung them up, making a situation of hanging to death.
No, it should be said, made a haunted appearance.
It was because of that incident that the third master was completely disheartened, he said that he was only a shallow learner, and he couldn't solve their family's problems, so he patted his ass and left.
Later, no one knew what happened to the family in the end, but the ruthlessness of the little young master that night remained in the mind of the third master forever.
The third master said that ghosts can harm people, but for thousands of years, the most common harm to people is still the people themselves.
Therefore, I don't think that Mr. He is haunted at all, and I believe that something is wrong with the people in his family than this statement.
However, I did not tell him about it, but said that it was all the more strange because I had found nothing in the room full of antiques, and I asked him bluntly if there was really something hidden in the house.
Mr. He seemed to think for a moment, raised his eyes to look at me, as if to confirm, and asked me again: "Are you really Qi Laosan's apprentice?" ”
I took out my scissors and laid them out in front of him.
Old Mr. He naturally knew what I meant, he nodded, and said, "Actually, I should have guessed why that little thief came. ”
Sure enough, this old fox already has a score in his heart.
He invited me into his study, avoided everyone, and got down to business.
He said that their family has an ancestral treasure, called the other side flower, of course, only flowers or only leaves, it is not enough to be precious, the most precious thing about this thing is that this is really something from the underworld, and the flowers and leaves are there.
I was still thinking about how to deceive him, but I don't know why, I suddenly felt a little unbearable, I wanted to tell the truth, and I was afraid that he would be angry and angry when he found out that I lied to him, and kicked me out directly.
So, I neutralized it and said, "I didn't expect this thing to really exist!" ”
Mr. He looked excited when he looked at me, and asked me with some curiosity what was wrong. I told him about Mengyunyin. Of course, it was only partially told, and he didn't even say Mengyunyin's name and identity. only said that his acquaintance had been plotted and needed this thing to save his life.
