Chapter 83: The Long Night (15)
However, at the moment when Luo Fei lit the lighter, he suddenly saw a skeleton sitting on the chair leaning against the opposite wall!
This very scary scene made Luo Fei couldn't help but collapse to the ground, the lighter fell to the side, and the main room fell into darkness again.
Fortunately, the skeleton didn't exaggerate and got up from the chair and made a sound walking towards Luo Fei. A few seconds after the main house fell into darkness, because nothing else terrible happened, Luo Fei slowly came back to his senses, carefully groped around, and finally touched the lighter again, trembling in the direction of the skeleton to start the fire again.
Although he was mentally prepared this time, when Luo Fei saw the skeleton again, he couldn't help but tremble slightly.
It was obvious that this skeleton had been dead for a long time, and the clothes on its body were in tatters, and if there were no supernatural events in this script, then it should not be a threat to Luo Fei.
Luo Fei cautiously approached the skeleton with a lighter, the reason why he did this was not because he suddenly became bolder, but because he felt that this skeleton appeared here, it would definitely not be for no reason, maybe it would have something to do with the "trial" of the town tomorrow night.
However, the table next to the skeleton was empty, not even scratches or anything like that.
Luo Fei refocused his gaze on the skeleton's arms in tattered clothes, even though this person had been gone for a long time, he still felt a little infiltrating when he ventured into the skeleton's arms to search for things.
Thinking of this, Luo Fei took a step back, bowed to the skeleton and said, "It's just to complete the task, don't be surprised by it!" ”
After worshipping, he conjured the "knight's sword" and used the tip of the sword to pick open the skull's clothes, revealing the bone-white chest and abdomen inside.
The tattered clothes were scattered under the sharp tip of the sword, and to Luo Fei's disappointment, until he picked up all the clothes on the skeleton's lower body, he didn't find a clue that even a piece of paper was missing!
"Am I being too careful?" Disappointed, Luo Fei lowered his sword and took a lighter to the bedroom of the main house to look for clues.
The bedroom was furnished with a bed, a wardrobe, and a table, and he also found a candlestick on the table, on which there was still half a candle left, and after lighting it, Luo Fei would not hold the lighter that was already a little hot.
When he was about to open the wardrobe, Luo Fei held the sword in his right hand, and quickly opened the door of the wardrobe with his left hand, and then his body immediately bounced back!
After seeing that there were only a few tattered clothes in the wardrobe, and there was nothing more terrifying than skeletons, Luo Fei slowly approached again, and searched for them in turn with his sword, muttering while picking: "This good survival game script, how did it make me feel like a horror game!" ”
Seeing that there was still no gain, Luo Fei locked the bedroom door with a candlestick in his left hand, although the lock was rusty, it could still play the role of a lock after all, and it could also make Luo Fei, who was back by the bed and ready to rest, feel more at ease.
"This is the same bed that skeletons used to sleep in!" Because of his previous experience in searching for a crowbar, Luo Fei carefully searched the bottom of the bed before going to bed, and this time he finally found a few big characters engraved by someone - immortality may not be immortal!
"What does that mean?" Luo Fei carefully illuminated every corner under the bed with candlelight, and after confirming that there were no other clues, he put the candlestick back and lay down on the bed to think about the meaning of those words just now.
Literally, immortality may refer to the fact that you could have lived to be 80 years old, and then you can prolong your life by some means, but you still can't reach the point of living forever and not dying.
But thinking of the skeleton sitting in the small hall of the main house, if he was the owner of this small courtyard, then no one would bury it after he died, but let him sit there all the time, which always made Luo Fei feel that the six words under the bed were far from being as simple as they sounded.
It's a pity that Luo Fei didn't have learned forensic science, otherwise he could roughly judge its age when it died by the state of the growth of the skeleton's bones or some other details.
Luo Fei didn't know when he fell asleep that night, and when he woke up, the sky outside the window was already bright.
After this night's rest, Luo Fei's stamina has returned to full, but his food and thirst values have dropped to the point where he needs to be replenished urgently.
The glass bottle of water that Luo Fei brought before was almost gone. There was still a lot of roast venison, so Luo Fei drank the only water left, ate some venison, and finally opened the bedroom to find a place to boil water.
Looking at the skeleton sitting on a chair in the small hall after dawn was not as scary as it was at night. But when Luo Fei passed by, he still subconsciously bowed to him again to show respect.
However, bowing his head this time made Luo Fei find a little different.
That's under the chair where the skeleton sits, and the corresponding floor is slightly darker than the others!
The lighter Luo Fei was holding last night was dimly lit, and his attention was mostly focused on the skeleton, so he didn't notice this.
At this time, Luo Fei walked to the front of the chair, carefully moved the skeleton and the chair to the side, and then carefully observed the slightly brown floor, and stroked it with his hand, it seemed that some brown soil had penetrated into it, causing this slight color difference.
"Is there a secret way?" Thinking of this, Luo Fei immediately linked this matter with the plots of movies, novels and other plots he had seen in the real world, but this floor and other floors were obviously embedded tightly, and no matter whether it was pushing forward or backward, there was no secret passage.
Luo Fei tapped the floor with his index finger, and sure enough, there was a hollow sound below.
He stood up and looked around, but he didn't find anything like a mechanism, so he simply took a heart and directly used his sword to cut the floor!
Wood chips splattered, and the wooden floor began to shatter under Luo Fei's constant sword slashing.
After cutting out a place where his right hand could be stretched in, Luo Fei put his right hand in and tried to push and pull, and found that the floor could be lifted up, and there was a metal support frame underneath, which might correspond to some kind of mechanism.
But now none of this matters, there is no dark and dark tunnel under a wooden floor the size of a chair, and after the floor is lifted, what appears in front of Luo Fei's eyes is a booklet about twenty pages thick!
This surprised Luo Fei, before lifting this floor, he thought that he would find a secret passage that led directly to the place where Su Ruoying was held.
Luo Fei saw that the cover of the booklet read: Blood Spirit Draining Ritual.
The moment he opened the booklet, he suddenly heard the system's prompt: [Mastering the content of this ritual can enable the player to gain 100 points of experience in aura specialization]
This is equivalent to a specialization reward for difficult scripts, which immediately made Luo Fei pay attention to it. He looked closely at the first page of the booklet, and his expression slowly changed from stunned to solemn, until he was happy to read the whole booklet.
He closed the booklet, put it in his backpack, and muttered, "I see! ”
