Chapter 224: The Magician
After deciding on it, I promised to come down first, and when the matter was settled, I would follow him.
Then I asked him, where do you want to take us?
He didn't say it, he just said that he was going to see a big man, as for who it was, he didn't disclose it, and I couldn't guess it, but even Wang Qiang called him a big man, which shows his high status.
Now is a special period, there is no better way, there is an old saying, call people swords, I am fish, can only be slaughtered, only rely on me and my brother, can survive until now, it is really not easy.
Then I told me about Miss Tang before and after, and after he had a general understanding, he asked me to take him to the house.
I limped in with him, and when I came to the house, the door was still not closed, and it was pitch black and silent.
"Be careful, he might be hiding somewhere." Wang Qiang walked in defenselessly, and I hurriedly reminded him.
Lao Yi went to chase this guy before and hasn't come back yet, and he doesn't know where he went, Wang Qiang's strength is undoubted, but I'm worried that he will be tricked, just like Chen Qing, he will be sealed into the painting, that is, no matter how great his strength is, he can't use it.
"There's a terrible smell in the house." He walked in, and as soon as he came to the center of the room, his brow suddenly furrowed: "It's smelly and sour." ”
"The taste? What does it taste like? Why didn't I smell it? I tried to sniff twice, but I didn't smell anything, because it was Miss Tang's house, there was a faint fragrance.
He glanced at me, his eyes became a little strange, and he didn't say anything when he looked at me.
I was a little hairy by him, and I couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?" ”
He paused for a moment, and said in an unkind tone: "I'm afraid you're really getting into trouble this time." ”
"What do you mean?" I was stunned by what he said.
He sniffed slightly, immediately frowned, and said, "I remember this taste, it's ugly and sour, um... Now it seems that if you think about the portrait you just mentioned, I am afraid that there is only one person, or rather, not a person, who can leave this flavor and have something to do with the portrait. ”
When I heard him say this, I became more and more uneasy, and I asked him, "Who are you talking about?" ”
"Ever heard of an artist?"
"Nope." I shook my head blankly, another unfamiliar name, unheard of.
"I don't know?" When he saw me reply, he seemed surprised: "Then how did you get involved with him?" It's not easy to solve. ”
"Who the hell is it?"
"The painter doesn't know, then you always know the ghosts, it's the people who wear masks."
"Grimace Masked Man?!" I was shocked when I heard this: "Of course I know about them, and this has something to do with them?" ”
He nodded and said, "It's really related, the ghost guest is a very large organization, its whereabouts are weird, it's hard to figure out, and the most famous of them are four people, magicians, painters, breeders and butchers, these four, some people have ghosts, and their strength is extraordinary, ordinary people encounter them, I'm afraid they don't even know how they died." ”
When I heard him say this, I felt a little furious in my heart, so I asked him, "How is it compared to you?" ”
He smiled mysteriously, but did not answer me, and said, "I have seen them before, and I remember the smell of the painter very clearly, it is not a human like me, but I am much more fragrant than it." ”
And boasting about yourself so much? I laughed dryly, not knowing how to answer.
He continued: "The ability of a painter is very special, and the reason why he is called a painter is because he only needs to draw a dying person on paper, and after death, this person will become a ghost that will never recover, and no one can get rid of it, which is very tricky. ”
"Just draw people on paintings? Don't need anything else? ”
"Yes, no." He said: "If you have to say what you need, there is, that you also need to know the name of the person being painted, so this is the trouble of it, it is very difficult to deal with, I have heard that the painter is not a person, but he often faces the world as an old man." ”
"Old man..."I remembered that the painting in Zhongwen's house before, and now Miss Tang's house, were all bought from an old man, it seems that there has been a connection between them, all of them are made by the painter, coincidentally, how did I bump into them?
What is the relationship between the dead old woman and the current Wen Lele? What is the purpose of the artist?
I couldn't figure it out, Wang Qiang said to me: "The ugly words are said first, I will only help you this time, as for any problems in the future, you are not allowed to look for me, I don't want to have anything to do with it." ”
Wang Qiang rarely shows such a taboo person, his behavior and language made me extremely surprised at the moment, and suddenly remembered something in my mind, and hurriedly asked him: "Then do you know that there is a person named Si Ku in the ghost guest organization?" ”
As soon as the words came out, he suddenly looked at me strangely, and his tone became puzzled: "You know, what's wrong?" You can't be related to him, right? ”
"It's not a connection... It's better to say that there are some fetters, but the problem is that he's dead now, and I'm just curious about the identity of this person. ”
"Dead?!" Wang Qiang was stunned for a moment, as if surprised: "How did you die?" ”
"I was bitten to death by a zombie." I remembered what had happened before and told him about the situation.
Who knew that after hearing this, he suddenly shook his head and laughed, and waved his hand again and again: "You are wrong, he is not dead at all, and the person who died is not him." ”
"What?!" I heard a buzz in my head, as if I had been beaten with a stick, and looked at him in shock, not understanding what it meant.
He looked at me with a smile and said, "You guys, you're still too tender, do you know his identity?" He is the magician among the four ghost guests, the best thing is to play tricks, he has a very special ability, that is, the real and false body, someone once said frankly, killed him no less than a dozen times, but then he can still be seen alive, until now, no one can tell which is his real body, which is the fake body. ”
When I heard these words, my whole body froze in place, and my mind was a mess and buzzing: "That means... He's not dead, maybe it's just his fake body..."
"Yes, do you think the four people in this ghost organization are so easy to deal with? Say death is death? You just asked me how I compare to them, well... I was confident that I could fight them, but I didn't have the confidence to kill them. ”
I stood still, unable to utter a word, when something else suddenly occurred to me.
If Si Ku didn't die, then he must know that I took his fake phone.
And in this mobile phone, there is only one person named D, who contacts him, and he doesn't seem to know who I am.
Looking at it now, I suddenly felt that something was wrong.
"Did he deliberately leave his phone behind so I could take it? And then there was only one person named D left in the contact, and there was a photo of the second uncle, just to let me see these on purpose? I suddenly felt a chill down my spine, and my whole body shivered: "So, everything, he planned, what is the purpose?" Why should I be connected to this person? ”
I thought about it, and felt something gradually become clear in my head: "If this D also knows the whole thing, then he has been keeping in touch with me, deliberately pretending not to reveal my identity, and wants to meet me... This whole thing is a trap? The photo of the second uncle, is it true or false? ”
Things are getting more and more complicated, and my head is starting to hurt again, and I can't sort out my thoughts.
Wang Qiang walked around the room and said, "This house is very clean now, there is nothing, where is the thing you are talking about?" ”
I rubbed my brain, and just wanted to speak, when suddenly the phone in my pocket rang, and I took it out and saw that it was Miss Tang.
Hurriedly answered: "What's wrong?" ”
"Master, come on! This... The painting came by itself..."
"What? Where did you go? ”
"I was at my best friend Rongrong's house, and I was chatting, when I heard someone knocking on the door outside... But when I opened the door, I found that there was no one outside, and there was the painting on the ground... I'm so scared... Come on...", she cried on the phone, sounding frightened.
I hurriedly said, "You send me the address, and I'll go over." ”
Then we hung up the phone, and Wang Qiang and I left here and drove the RV to the address sent by Miss Tang.
The RV was smashed and couldn't be seen, but it could still be driven, but the glass was broken everywhere.
I drove the car, thinking in my heart, if it continues to develop like this, I will only be able to install bulletproof glass on the car, otherwise I will be targeted by the people in the ghost world from time to time, who can resist it?
