Chapter 39, Room 1
Yang Ke listened in amazement to the little boy's voice coming from all directions, and it was the first time he had spoken to someone outside in a dream.
He glanced at the study, confused.
Is this really a dream?
Why does everything seem so real?
The old shelves are neatly lined with books in English, and on the old desk is a quill pressed against a piece of parchment with English written on it.
The hour and minute hands of the pendulum clock on the wall are all pointed at eleven o'clock, and only the second hand takes a step forward and a step back, ticking incessantly.
Yang Ke patted the dust on the chair, sat down and picked up the parchment on the desk, although it was written in English, he basically understood it.
“Welcome back,My friend…… Welcome back, my friend, probably I have left the city by the time you read this letter.
Unfortunately, my experiment ended in failure, so I had to leave here for a while to get out of the limelight.
You know, the ignorance of the world prevents them from understanding my research, and they just repeat it again and again: Don't look directly at God.
Oh, what a ridiculous statement, man is born to evolve, and if he can't control the power of God, he only deserves to be a slave of God.
However, these are not important now, I heard that Anan has founded an organization called the Healing Church, and I am going to go and check it out, maybe I can get some inspiration and inspiration.
My friend, Count Harlow Cabel, you are my only confidant, and I hope that we will have the opportunity to witness the success of my research together.
Fred Radner, an equally distinguished earl.
1764,8,1。 ”
This is a letter.
It's just that the date above is a bit far away.
Yang Ke couldn't understand what was said above, which may have something to do with some history of Western Europe.
He put down the letters, opened the drawers of the desk one by one, and found a large set of keys in the second drawer on the right, about thirty of them.
Looks like that's it.
Yang Ke picked up the key and didn't go out immediately, but went to the bookshelf again and scanned the books on it.
"Did you find the key?"
"I'm looking."
Yang Ke didn't want to be subject to the little boy like this, he wanted to find some clues about this dream and figure out what was going on here.
Well?
Yang Ke noticed that the font on one book was significantly different from other books.
He took the book, sat back down at his desk, and opened it to find strange characters.
After turning a few pages, Yang Ke found the one that the little boy asked him to draw just now among these characters.
It's a pity that there is no explanation of the characters above, and he has no idea what it means at all.
Yang Ke guessed that these characters should correspond to different abilities.
It's a pity that he doesn't dare to use it casually, in case there are any unexpected side effects, it will be a fool.
Yang Ke put the book on the desk, got up and went to the bookshelf to look for other books.
He saw a book with a plain black cover, with no title on the back, so he reached out and took it out.
However, as he was about to open the book, an eye suddenly opened on the cover of the book.
"it!"
Yang Ke was startled and hurriedly threw it on the ground.
"What happened?"
"There's a book with eyes,! It's flying, it's still mouthful! ”
The one-eyed book opened and closed his big mouth and bit Yang Ke frantically, and the little boy outside the dream heard it and hurriedly said: "You can't beat it, hurry up and find the key and leave there!" ”
Yang Ke was already holding the key in his hand, he felt that this was his dream, he was the master of the dream, and a book should not be very powerful.
But soon, he realized he was wrong.
The power of the one-eyed book was amazing, even if Yang Ke grabbed it with both hands, he was pushed back again and again by it, leaning on the bookshelf all the time, shaking off a few books.
The one-eyed book bit Yang Ke's shoulder, and the intense pain made him finally realize that this could not be a dream.
"Damn, I can't die here!"
Yang Ke gritted his teeth and forcibly tore the one-eyed book off his shoulder.
Blood spilled all over the ground, and when One-Eyed saw the blood on the ground, he immediately changed his target and pounced on it.
Yang Ke took the opportunity to cover his shoulders and leave the study.
In the study, after licking a few mouthfuls of blood on the ground, the one-eyed book fell asleep.
Yang Ke held on to the stairs until he came to the first floor.
The hall on the first floor is richly decorated, with expensive goldware and elegant furniture everywhere.
The heavy bleeding made Yang Ke's consciousness start to blur a little, and he felt that he had to get out of here as soon as possible, so he sped up his search for room two.
It's just that he went around the first floor and found nothing.
Although there were indeed some rooms around, Yang Ke did not find the so-called iron gate room, let alone any number.
"There's no room number two here."
"Impossible, you look for it again."
"There is indeed no room two, and the thirteen rooms on the first floor are all wooden doors."
"Wooden doors? The same goes for the wooden door, and the second room from the right of the entrance on the first floor is room 2. ”
Yang Ke turned his back to the exit and came to the second wooden door on the right-hand side.
The wooden door was locked, and Yang Ke casually found a key to try to unlock it, but found that the surface of the lock was covered with a special light film, and the key could not be inserted at all.
Yang Ke tried several keys and found that they were all the same.
"It can't be opened, there is a film-like thing on the lock, and the key can't be inserted."
"It's a damn seal, damn it, damn it, damn it!"
There was a sound of smashing the wall all around, and Yang Ke guessed that it was the little boy who was venting his anger.
After a thump of knocking against the wall, the little boy's voice calmed down a little.
"The thirteen rooms on the first floor must be opened in order, and you need to open the door to room number one first, which is the first one on your right."
Yang Ke came to the door of Gate No. 1 and found that the key could indeed be inserted.
As he tried to pick the lock, he asked, "May I ask a question?" ”
"What's the problem?"
"How do you know what's going on here, if it's really my dream, as you say."
"Because I've been to that building before."
"Lovely dreams are not fixed."
"Yes, but this hunter's dream belongs to you alone, it belongs to you alone, so only you can help me."
Click.
The No. 1 door lock was opened, and Yang Ke gently pushed open the wooden door, only to find that it was pitch black inside, and nothing could be seen.
He retrieved a lit candle from the hall and returned to the door of Room One, but as soon as he walked in, he saw a black coffin in the center of Room One.
In an empty room, there is only one coffin, and this picture is really weird.
"Did you open room one?"
"Not yet."
Yang Ke endured the pain in his shoulder, came to the coffin, and pushed the coffin lid open with a slight force.
There were no bodies in the coffin, only four neat little black boxes.
Yang Ke picked one up and opened it, and found that it contained a pure white hair.
He then opened the second one, which contained a sharp tooth.
The third one is half a bone inside.
And the fourth one is actually a complete internal organ, and it is even beating non-stop!
What is this?
Why are they in a coffin?
Could it be some strange fetish of the owner of the house?
"Is it open now?"
"It's opened."
"Great, there is a coffin in room one, there are four small black boxes in the coffin, you take out the contents of the small black box, put it on your body, and then lie down in the coffin and repeat my next words."
"Why am I doing this? Our deal only says I'll help you get the stuff out of room two, but we don't say we're going to do that. ”
Through the few temptations just now, Yang Ke can basically determine that in addition to not being able to enter this world, the little boy should not be able to see his actions in this world.
This means that the initiative is in his hands.
The little boy's voice was a little urgent, "I know, I know, but only after completing this ritual can I open room two." ”
"It's an extra part, and you need to promise me extra conditions."
The little boy was annoyed, and when he saw that he was about to kick the door, he was actually stuck in the neck by a human being, and his voice was no longer as innocent as usual, but slightly overbearing and angry with an adult: "You'd better not get an inch, your body can be in my hands." ”
Yang Ke said indifferently: "Yes, it doesn't matter, if you want that body, you can take it at any time, if you don't agree to this condition to me, then the body or life is meaningless to me." ”
"You don't want to live anymore?"
"It has nothing to do with you, the additional conditions, whether to agree or not to agree."
The little boy was silent for a moment, and finally compromised: "What conditions." ”
"Rescuing my mother, I'm sure it's not a difficult task for you."
"Where's your mother?"
"I only know she's in a hospital, but you'll have to find out for yourself."
"Okay, you finish the ritual first, and I'll go save your mother."
"That's not going to work, I've got to see her wake up before I can help you. After all, if this is the ritual you want, and not the so-called skeletons in room two, then I won't be at a loss. ”
Yang Ke's bargaining made the little boy very impatient, and he wanted to break the other party's neck several times, but thinking that he had been waiting for so many years, if he killed him, he didn't know how long he would have to wait, so he had to endure it.
"You'd better not lie to me, or your mother will pay for you."
"Don't worry, I'm the most trustworthy."
After Yang Ke finished speaking, he suddenly felt a trance in front of him, and when he opened his eyes again, he found that he had returned to the basement before, and the injury on his shoulder had disappeared.
Only the only difference is that the black top hat he brought in did not come out together.
The little boy had a gloomy face, and he was very unhappy with Yang Ke: "Where's your top hat?" ”
"I forgot to take it out."
"Then how are you sure I saved your mother?"
"I still have a cell phone, so I can call her."
Yang Ke took out his Nokia from his pocket and shook it in front of the little boy.
"Or, I'll come with you?"
"No, you stay here, you are not allowed to leave anywhere."
