Chapter 718: Old Lady
Once the talisman is activated, if it does not work, it will lose its power and become a useless piece of paper, so this yin talisman is a waste, one of the five talismans is wasted, and the remaining four should be used with caution.
The three of them came out of the room and came to the door inside, Yin Que did not open the door rashly this time, but listened carefully against the door.
There was still silence inside the door, but there was a faint light coming from the crack in the door, something they hadn't noticed before.
The light was so faint that it seemed to be extinguished at any moment.
"Did you notice the light before?"
Yin Que asked.
Xiao Yao and Shen Ying shook their heads at the same time, none of the three of them noticed, but no matter how weak this light was, it would be particularly conspicuous in this dark environment, why didn't the three of them notice it?
"There's someone in the room!"
All three thought at the same time.
"The squad leader should be here, we ......"
Before Yin Que finished his stroke, suddenly there was a squeaky sound in the room, like the sound of someone stepping on a wooden plank.
"The female ghost is coming out!"
The three of them were startled, and then hurried back to the bedroom where there was a cabinet before.
Quickly closing the door, the three of them held their breath and nervously leaned against the door and listened carefully.
Fortunately, the door to this room did not make any noise.
Squeak~~
There was a long sound of the door opening, and the door with the light was slowly opened, and then the light gradually expanded.
At this moment, the light suddenly dimmed, as if it was blocked by something.
Squeak ~ squeak ~
The sound of stepping on the planks reached the ears of the three of them through the door again, and the slow rhythm sounded like an old man struggling to walk.
“???”
The three people inside the door suddenly wondered, why did the ghost walk and still have a sound? And just now the light was blocked, and the ghost still has a shadow?
The sound of squeaking and creaking gradually came closer, as if someone was wailing, and the sound was getting closer and closer.
Suddenly, the voice stopped, and it stopped outside the door, Xiao Yao and the female ghost were only separated by a wooden door.
The blood of the three of them hit the heart instantly, making the hands and feet of the three of them cold, and bursts of cold sweat, but the three of them could only cover their mouths and noses to prevent them from making sounds due to fright.
The air seemed to freeze, and the two sides looked at each other through a door, and the female ghost's gaze stared at them as if it could see through the door.
If the three of them could open the door, they would find that although the ghost outside the door was dressed in white, it was not the female ghost they had seen earlier, but an old lady who was even more terrifying than that.
The old lady was hunched up, her head was almost down to her chest, a big bulge bulged out of her back, her hands and feet were strangely curled up, like the claws of a mouse, her dirty white clothes seemed to be glued to her body, her messy gray hair was tied in dead knots, and her face was full of pus, and it was difficult to distinguish her facial features.
The old lady seemed to be unable to stand, always shaking, and the three people inside the door covered their mouths so hard that they didn't even dare to breathe.
After a long time, the old lady seemed to have thought of something, so she turned around and left the door slowly.
Squeak ~ squeak ~
The sound grew farther and farther away, followed by the sound of the door opening and closing, and then everything was quiet again.
"Whew~~!"
The three of them exhaled a long breath, feeling like their lungs were about to explode, and their heads were a little dizzy because of the breathlessness.
Quickly breathing steadily and adjusting his state, Xiao Yao gestured.
"The female ghost is finally gone, I think we need to go to the bright room, I feel like the squad leader is there."
The three of them combined and decided to quickly go to the room to take a look while the female ghost hadn't appeared yet.
So, the three of them walked out of the room lightly, Yin Que held the yin talisman in his hand, and was ready to paste it first when he met a female ghost.
The door did not close, the faint light illuminated the entire corridor, and the three of them did not have to move forward in the dark, so they quickly came to the room.
The room was the same size as the previous one, except that instead of beds and cabinets, there was only one large table with four tablets on it.
In addition to the two faintly burning candles in front of the ranks, there is also a ...... Head.
Yes, it was a human head, but it was impossible to tell whether it was male or female, for it had been dried so that it was like a mummy, and all that was left was bones and dry skin, and a pitiful amount of hair.
In addition to this, there was a man lying in the room, a humanoid object to be exact, because the object was tightly bound by filthy rags.
"And breathing."
Xiao Yao looked at the humanoid object, and the slight rise and fall of his chest indicated that the object was alive.
The three of them hurriedly opened the wrapped rags and found that it was indeed the squad leader Liu Ming, who was already unconscious at this time, and his mouth was stuffed with rags.
The three of them didn't think much about it, and hurriedly picked up Liu Ming and were about to go out, and it was possible to be in danger if they stayed in this place for a second longer.
But after walking a few steps, and before even the door could go out, the creaking sound sounded again.
"Oh no, the female ghost is here!"
The three of them immediately put Liu Ming in place, and then hurriedly wrapped the rags, and then relied on their small bodies, and the three of them hid under the table together.
There is no way, the whole room is clear at a glance, only under the table can hide people.
The three of them held their breath and didn't dare to make a sound.
Squeak ~ squeak ~
The sound is getting closer, closer and closer.
Eventually, a dirty old lady walked in.
The three of them were stunned at the same time, but then the old lady seemed to find that Liu Ming had been moved, so she immediately walked over to check Liu Ming's condition.
At this time, Xiao Yao and the three of them also discovered why there was no sound when they walked, but the old lady squeaked when she walked.
Because the old lady's feet were seriously deformed, and the bones would squeeze and rub against each other with every step, there was a squeaky movement, and the old lady could not walk fast due to deformity, so she could only walk slowly.
The three of them were not using sign language, but making eye contact, they were waiting for an opportunity, an opportunity to be able to run with Liu Ming.
The old lady didn't stay by Liu Ming's side for too long, it seemed that she just wanted to confirm whether Liu Ming was dead or not.
The squeak sounded again, and the old lady actually walked towards Xiao Yao and them, but she didn't find the three people hiding under the table.
Maybe it's because the table is so big that the three children can't even notice it, or maybe it's too dark in the room, after all, the only thing that can light up this room is those two candles.
They couldn't see what the old lady was doing at the offering table, but the rustling sound above their heads proved that the old lady seemed to be stroking something.
"You can't be touching the head, are you?"
The three of them thought of it in unison, and then suddenly got goosebumps.
After some time, the old lady seemed to have touched enough, so she still turned around slowly.
But after turning around, the three people under the table suddenly saw the old lady holding a firewood knife for chopping wood, and the black-red dirt on the firewood knife looked like blood.
The chai knife was not sharp, and the chai knife in the old lady's hand was even more blunt like a saw.
"Not good!"
The three of them were shocked at the same time, judging from the current situation, this old lady was obviously going to kill Liu Ming with a knife.
Before they had time to think about it, the three of them quickly got out from under the table, and then bumped into the old lady with all their might.
