Chapter 277: Room

As I climbed through the window, I accidentally shattered a piece of old-fashioned aqua blue glass, and the shards fell down with a clatter, which was extremely brittle.

I thought there was no one around here, but I didn't expect that the glass window on the east floor next door would open with a "snap".

I was so frightened that I fell under the window, not even daring to catch my breath. Damn, it's just a joke, if someone else finds out that I trespassed into the house and then invited the tea, I'm afraid I won't be able to argue.

Fortunately, however, there was no other movement after the window rang, and no head poked out of the window of the black hole and looked around fiercely, asking in a rough voice, "Who?"

I quietly looked up from under the window, and it was only then that I realized that the view from the window of the Duo Duo house was quite wide.

This is an old neighborhood, with alleys and scattered houses, but standing on the balcony of Tuo Duo's house, you can just cleverly avoid all the houses and directly see the big red lantern hanging outside the small supermarket at the entrance of the community.

The door to the balcony of Tuoduo's house was hidden, and the room was dark and nothing could be seen. I had barely taken two steps when I kicked on a small square stool, and my toes hurt so much that I almost screamed.

I didn't dare to turn on the light easily, so I took out my phone and turned on the flashlight, and I looked around with the faint light on my phone. It's still the same as when I came the last time I visited, and the furniture is shabby but it's neat. The doors of the two bedrooms were closed, and a thick layer of dust fell on the New Year's pictures printed with the inverted "Fu" that were pasted on the month and year.

I tried pushing the door, and one of the rooms was supposed to be where the Tuoduo slept, and nothing out of the ordinary. The other room, the room where Tuo Duo led Tan Zhe and Bai Qiuying into the last time, the door was locked, and I tried several times but didn't push it open.

What's the secret in this house?

Many times, the more others cover up, the more they want to find out.

The door was an old-fashioned single wooden door, with a one-foot-high window at the head, and I moved the square stool I had just kicked over to put my feet on it, and climbed up to see through that window.

However, as soon as my fingers touched the window frame on the door, a metal piece fell to the ground with a "clang", and when I picked it up, it turned out to be a copper-yellow key.

A key opens a lock, and this key happens to be the lock on this door.

The moment I opened the door, I even had some doubts: could it be that this key was deliberately placed here by Tuoduo?

He knew I was coming, so he put the key here in advance. What's going on in the house? Got the trap ready to go? This can't be a empty plan, right?

To be honest, I hesitated. The hand holding the doorknob froze for half a minute, and I really didn't have the courage to push the door in.

I let go of my hand, and even took a step back, but I thought to myself: what if this was just a habit of the Tuoduo? When I was a child, the security in the village was relatively good, and the older generation was always afraid of losing the key, so they liked to put the key in a hidden place at the door, or on the door frame, or under the broken flower pot at the door, and some directly dug a pit in the corner of the wall to bury the key.

Would Tuoduo have such a habit?

My curiosity and impulse were rekindled. Without hesitation, I pushed the door open.

The room was drowsy, and when I held up my phone, it was empty!

Fuck, this ...... What's going on? I struggled so much that I was almost dying, who would have thought that there would be nothing in this place?

Behind the door, on the roof, on the floor tiles, I even knocked on them, and I couldn't find a single hair?

Last time, when Master Tuduo called Tan Zhe and Bai Qiuying in, was this the same here? Or did Tuoduo know I was coming, and deliberately emptied this room just to mock me in this way?

I couldn't stop crying or laughing. Fuck, it's an old fox!

"Drop-" The mobile phone rang briefly, it was a WeChat message from Bai Qiuying: It is estimated that this side is almost over, why haven't you come back?

I replied: I'll go back immediately.

Tonight really didn't go well and nothing went wrong. I slammed the door in anger, threw the key on the ground in a fit of rage, and turned to walk towards the balcony.

Climbing down the stairs along the big tree, I dusted off the dirt and was about to leave, when something suddenly occurred to me.

I turned my head to look at the wide open window on the next floor, it was like a giant mouth of the abyss, lying quietly in the darkness, waiting for the prey to pass by, and then took it off in one gulp, and there was no scum left.

I had a strange thought: I wanted to see the world behind that window.

Most of the houses in this neighborhood are the same, with two floors, the first floor is narrow and closed, neither ventilated nor transparent, and is generally used as a utility room, and the second floor is inhabited. There was a big tree in front of Tuoduo's house, so it wasn't hard to get in and out, but his neighbor's house wasn't so convenient.

Fortunately, my ability to climb trees and climb over walls did not fall, and the bricks of the old houses were large and could be picked up and stepped on, so I barely climbed to the second floor and turned over through the open window.

However, the door to the balcony of this house was locked, and I tried to find the key nearby, but I couldn't find it.

At that time, I was a little stunned, I was so bent on opening the door that I didn't even think about the consequences, and when I thought about it, I was a little afraid.

What if there's someone in the house or if it's just another trap set by Tuoduo? I didn't think about it at all.

I used the simplest and most straightforward method – breaking the door.

Fortunately, the door lock was really not strong, and I hit it twice, and it actually opened.

The "creaking" sound of the old-fashioned wooden door as it moves is particularly clear in the lonely night. A cold wind blew straight from the other side, and I exhaled, white smoke billowing out.

How cold is this? There's something weird about this room!

The house was empty, and the corners were scattered with red, white and yellow sand, and I walked over and looked at it carefully, and it turned out to be white ash, cinnabar, and sulfur.

White ash is used to nourish corpses, cinnabar is used to calm souls, and sulfur is used to ward off evil spirits. The owner of this house was very thoughtful.

I secretly pulled out the Black Tiger Soul Tuning Flag from my back and walked towards one of the closed doors, "Click, click, click......

Wait, something doesn't sound right when I'm walking.

I crouched on the ground and carefully searched with the light of my mobile phone, only to see that the gray ground was different and dark, as if there was a magical power that could completely absorb the light.

What the is this weird thing?

I muttered to myself as I slowly reached out my hand......
