The candles flickered and the lights were bright.

It's a house, a house that's inside a big tree.

And it's not just an ordinary house, it's a matrimonial room.

In the room, you can see red things everywhere, with red cloth ribbons hanging on the top and a red carpet on the floor.

There were red candles and lanterns on the walls and pillars, and even the bed and dresser in front of them were covered with red things.

I was amazed that this room had been here for an unknown amount of time, but it was as clean as if it were brand new.

And most importantly, where exactly did these things come from?

To be honest, Yan Xiaoying and I didn't expect that we would reunite with Lao Fei in such a place, which was very unexpected.

But in addition to the accident, I was still inevitably happy in my heart.

At least the three of us came in together, and after a lot of difficulties, we are finally together again. Although, we're all in a mess right now.

The appearance of Lao Fei lifted Yan Xiaoying's spirits and me, at least not as sluggish as before.

How to say that he is also a new force, although this thing is very unreliable......

I helped Yan Xiaoying to the place where the sedan chair was parked before.

Now, the sedan chair had been carried away by the eight wax figures, and the field was empty, except for a broken jade pendant on the ground.

Bending down to pick up the broken pendant, cherishing it and hiding it, the two followed behind the old fat and walked towards the dresser in the depths.

When I came closer, I finally saw what was on the dresser.

A black wooden comb, a hanging beaded hairpin, and a vanity powder box, compared with the ladies of ancient times, this is obviously simple.

Next to these things, there was an object the size of a spoon.

The object appears to have been made of bronze, with a cloud carving pattern on its surface, a large, large grimace relief on the front, and a spoon handle joined together with a vermilion log.

The interior is hollow, and pieces of black charcoal are placed.

Seeing these things, the old fat was overjoyed, and rushed forward in three steps and two steps, regardless of thirty-seven twenty-one, and took the things on the table with both arms.

"Haha, mine, it's all Lao Tzu."

He smiled, forgetting the pain on his head, and holding those things in his arms like a calf. In the end, he lifted the hem of his clothes and put all the things on the table inside.

I was speechless for a while, but I couldn't say anything at this time.

After all, he entered here to find a treasure, but the makeup powder box is estimated to be worthless.

The only thing that has some value is the pendant bun, and the black wooden comb, and the bronze spoon that was not taken into the arms of the old fat.

"This thing ......"

I was amazed to see that the grimace relief on the surface was very hideous, showing a smile that seemed to be smiling rather than smiling, crying and crying, and I didn't know how to describe the grimace expression.

Anyway, it's very uncomfortable to watch.

Just as I reached out to pick up the unknown bronze spoon and look at it carefully, my palm was slapped open.

"Lao Yan, what are you doing? These things are mine, do you want to rob? Lao Tzu fought with you. ”

I withdrew my hand, rolled my eyes at Lao Fei, and cursed: "Seeing that Qian is open, do you think Lao Tzu has the same character as you?" I just look at this thing weird and want to pick it up and take a look. ”

Lao Fei snorted coldly, and said noncommittally to my words: "Everyone is a layman, don't say that you are as noble as a saint, and say that Lao Tzu is greedy for money, I don't believe that you are not greedy." These antique-level things are in front of you, who doesn't want them? Isn't that human? ”

He paused, and continued to hum and reason with me: "Money can make ghosts grind, money is omnipotent, and without money, it is absolutely impossible." ”

I was stunned by what he said, and finally thought about it and felt that there was some truth in what he said.

Not to mention anything else, when I faced Bai Youlan before, I also hesitated, and even fell into a demon because of this, almost falling into the demon barrier, and couldn't extricate myself.

"Huh! The technique of this grimace bronze carving is very exquisite, haha, this thing must be very valuable when sold. ”

The old fat poured out the black charcoal in the grimace bronze, and the more he looked at it, the more happy he became, and his mouth was about to crack to the earlobe.

I pouted and said, "As far as I know, bronzes are forbidden to be sold on the surface, and even if you take this thing out, it is estimated that it will be confiscated." ”

"You don't understand this, the mountain people have their own tricks, I know a lot of ways, so I can naturally shoot it."

At this time, Yan Xiaoying, who had been silent beside me, suddenly spoke: "This grimace bronze looks ordinary, and it is estimated that it is not worth much to buy." ”

"What? Not worth it? Do you know this thing? Lao Fei was anxious when he heard this, and asked Yan Xiaoying.

"You don't know what it's for?" Yan Xiaoying asked rhetorically.

"What's it for?"

Lao Fei and I both looked at Yan Xiaoying, waiting for her to explain.

"If you don't know what it is, why do you think it must be a priceless treasure?" Yan Xiaoying's voice was weak and said lightly.

"Wouldn't it? Aren't all bronzes a product of the Xia and Shang periods? With such a long history, even if it is a urinal, it is estimated to be worth tens of millions now, right? The worst is a few millions? The old fat said stunned.

"Poof!"

Yan Xiaoying heard what Lao Fei said, but she couldn't help but burst out laughing, but she smiled and smiled, but blood spilled from the corners of her mouth.

"Millions? You're dreaming, aren't you? This kind of thing is not a product of the Xia and Shang period, it is a modern thing, and it is good to sell it for tens of thousands of yuan. ”

"What? A modern thing? Didn't lie to me? ”

"What are you lying to? Don't believe it yourself, look at the bottom of it. ”

Hearing this, the old fat hurriedly flipped the grimace bronze over, and our eyes fell on it.

I saw that the bottom of the grimace bronze was very light and slippery, and the light and slippery were like iron......

"This ...... Something isn't bronze? ”

"Imitation bronze, to be exact...... It's bronze, too. ”

"What is it for?" I asked.

"Iron your clothes."

"Ironing clothes?"

Lao Fei and I were a little dumbfounded when we heard this.

"You say this thing is an iron?"

"What do you think it is? The charcoal you saw in it before, the bottom was smooth and slippery, obviously caused by long-term ironing, this kind of thing is in our coffin shop, but the style does not look as old as the one in front of you. ”

"This kind of bronze iron first appeared in the Han Dynasty and was also used by people in the Qing Dynasty, and it was not until the end of the Qing Dynasty that it disappeared and was replaced by other things."

"However, you don't have to be too sad, after all, this kind of thing is rare in modern times, and if it is old enough, it is also very valuable."

"Hey! I thought I met a baby of the same level as Si Muding, but I didn't expect it to be a broken iron. The old fat cursed with a dejected face.

That being said, he quickly put it away.

In the end, because it was inconvenient to take it in, he took off his clothes, rolled everything into a ball, and carried it behind him like an ancient burden.

I frowned, looked at Lao Fei with concern, and said, "These things belong to that woman...... I'm afraid it's not good to take it away like this, right? In case she comes to you......"

"What are you afraid of? We're also warlocks, and a little yin spirit can't deal with it, so what will we talk about in the future? ”

"Do you still want to ascend like this? I'm afraid I'm not thinking too much. ”

I was speechless for a while, but I didn't persuade him any more, because I knew the character of the thing, and I wanted him to put it down unless he was going to die.

I helped Yan Xiaoying, sat on the steps, looked at the candlelight swaying passage outside the gate, turned around and asked the two, "What now?" Do you go back into the other two passages, or do you keep going? ”

Yan Xiaoying hadn't answered yet, and the old fat man who had paid the sweetness said with a big grin: "Why are you leaving?" Didn't you say that the sedan chair was carried in? Let's chase it down, maybe there is something priceless in her dowry. ”

"You are not satisfied with taking so many things from other people, and you still want to covet other people's dowry?" I glared at the old fat and scolded angrily.

"I'm afraid of it! They're not human anyway, at least not alive. As warlocks, it is our duty to eliminate demons and catch ghosts and maintain the right path in the world. I said Lao Yan, as the guardian of Heaven Mountain, you have the responsibility to destroy the demons and monsters here and restore a peaceful world to the world. You said that those things dared to show their murder in front of you, can you swallow this breath? You can bear it, but I can't bear it anyway. ”

Lao Fei said so much, he just wanted to keep up.

And he took out the demon slaying hanging sword he got from under the arch bridge, and took out a piece of yellow rune paper from his pocket, and said righteously: "Everyone has a job to kill demons, let's go, go with the head of this road to meet those so-called monsters for a while." ”

"A man looks like a dog, but is he still the head of the Tao? You don't know that the real Dao Sect Little Heavenly Master has already come here, you better be restrained, if you let them know that you have practiced the Dao Sect technique, they may kill you. I admonished.

"Daomen Little Heavenly Master Lu Ji? They're coming in here too? ”

Lao Fei obviously didn't know about this, and when he heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched, and the orangutan put away the demon slashing sword.

The set of Dao Gate techniques he obtained was not glorious, and if the Dao Sect people studied it deeply, the consequences would be unimaginable. After all, the death of the Evergreen Dao people is inseparable from us.

"Not only the people of the Daomen, but also Li Guodong, in addition to a few Yin people, one is a papermaker, and the other is a murmurer......"

I told him about the people I met in the woods before.

The black rat he encountered in the temple before was obviously the means of the mysterious paper-tying craftsman.

Maybe now...... Maybe they're already on top of the red palace.

I don't know how Lin Miao is now?

Thinking of Lin Miao, I couldn't help but feel a little worried in my heart, the Dao Gate technique is clever, although Lin Miao is powerful, I am afraid that it will not be good in their hands.

What's more, in addition to Lu Ji and them, there are also witches from the Gu clan......

I looked at Yan Xiaoying and asked for her opinion.

Seeing me look over, Yan Xiaoying shook her head slightly, and her eyes fell on Lao Fei.

"What are you afraid of, the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, go!"

The old fat was very arrogant, waved his big hand, and stepped into the passage first.

Seeing this, I had to walk in behind him with Yan Xiaoying's support.

The three of them finally got together, and they couldn't let him leave alone, right?

When I left the room and walked down the passage, I immediately saw two wax figures kneeling on either side.

Looking at it up close, I was even more amazed.

These two men, a man and a woman, did not look very old, only in their twenties, and their service clothes were somewhat like those of the Gaoshan tribesmen, but if they looked closely, they were a little different.

The man knelt on his left hand side and the woman on his right hand, both with their heads hanging low, their skin covered with a thick layer of transparent waxy substance.

There was a small hole in the palm of their hand, and a lamp cord made of unknown material extended from it, and it was burning faintly.

As the wick burned, the wax covering their hands began to melt and drip onto the red carpet on the ground.

"These are real people?" Lao Fei asked me and Yan Xiaoying suspiciously.

"Yes, they're all real people, corpses to be exact, they're all dead."

Yan Xiaoying's family opened a coffin, and she said that these wax figures were corpses, which was absolutely wrong.

After all, she has the most say in this regard.

"Make a wax figure out of a corpse with a wick in it...... This is simply a lamp slave, could it be that these flames are burning the fat in their bodies? That is, corpse oil......"

"Perhaps!" Yan Xiaoying said thoughtfully.

Although they knew that these lamp slaves were dead, the three of them walked in it, and they were still frightened and nervous.

We couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief as we walked past several pairs of lamp slaves in a row, and there were no accidents.

However, as soon as we let down our vigilance, Yan Xiaoying suddenly stopped, and pulled me down, looked sideways at a female lamp slave beside her, and frowned slightly......
