Chapter 14 The Attic

Coming to the room where Xiu Ming picked up the doctrinal book with the notes, Cui Kaixuan began to try to pick the lock, a key and a long needle, pounding in the keyhole.

"It's not going to be another strange thing this time!" Gao Yi couldn't help but worry.

"I guess...... No. Cui Kaixuan said while continuing to unlock the lock, "It's been a hundred years since I was killed by a ghost, and it's terrible to be locked up here and die slowly without doing anything." ”

People who are worried that there are ghosts in it seem to have put down a stone in their hearts, yes, it's a big deal, what else can they do?

And Xiu Ming and Fei Xin naturally knew that there were coats of arms everywhere, and there could be no ghosts, but the belief in moving forward could be used anywhere.

Click. "That's it!" Cui Kaixuan gently pushed, and the door opened, this room was R204.

Guo Zhengxiang went inside.

With the same arrangement as the previous two rooms, Xiu Ming really doubted that these people who lived here before would have the wrong room.

finally came in, and everyone naturally had to check it carefully.

Curtains, bed feet, under carpets, everything that might be hidden.

Cui Kaixuan continued to open the door, but the lock could not be opened.

Xiuming, on the other hand, found a slightly whitish thing in an iron bucket, and after taking it out, it turned out to be a small half piece of unburned paper.

"The whispers of the devil are accompanied by the blood of sin...... The path of eternal life will be opened...... Follow...... The back was burned out and couldn't be seen clearly, and the last thing written was to return or turn upside down? Xiu Ming found that there was a word he didn't recognize.

"Return?" When everyone heard this, they immediately gathered around, and this piece of paper should be related to going out.

"It's okay to buy it first, and what does it mean to return upside down at the end?" Guo Zhengxiang wondered.

Tao Tao let out a long hum: "Could it be that it is not upside down, but something else." After all, the words of a long time ago may not mean the same meaning as they may refer now. ”

"yes, forget about the times." Xiu Ming put the note on the table and pondered.

"I don't think we can just look at this paragraph, there should be words after the upside down, or the word upside down has a special meaning, but we lack the basic common sense about this house to understand it. Also, inversion can be interpreted as the opposite. Fehin said.

"Well......" Everyone nodded, Gao Yi withdrew his gaze from Fei Xin's body, and said, "But the paper mentions returning, so there should be a way to get out." We don't know if they have eternal life, but they themselves certainly believe that they can succeed, so there will be an outlet for themselves. ”

"Then we can look at their notes, or the items they left behind, and the books are unlikely to tell them directly, because they burned everything about it. But their behavior can still be deduced from other relevant books. Xiu Ming looked at everyone: "But I'm afraid we don't have so much time."

"We have to work hard, we try to dig out the secrets here, why don't we split up, one group of people is dedicated to reading books, one group of people is dedicated to opening the door, and after discovering something valuable, we put it together, and we think together, how about it?" Cui Kaixuan asked.

"So, who opens the door and who reads?" Guo Zhengxiang glanced at everyone, and finally looked at Gao Yi.

And the eyes of others were also looking at Gao Yi.

Gao Yi nodded, he was very satisfied with everyone's eyes, and he felt that he had been affirmed by his self-worth.

He just wanted to speak, but hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "So, which of you wants to open the door?"

Although this sound soft, Gao Yi has already excluded himself from the candidates for opening the door.

"I think so, Cui Kaixuan and I will open the door." Xiu Ming said.

"Are you okay......?" Cui Kaixuan glanced at Xiu Ming suspiciously, and then looked at Guo Zhengxiang.

Guo Zhengxiang was just about to step forward, Gao Yi said: "Xiu Ming is okay, Cui Kaixuan, put down prejudices under special circumstances, although Xiu Ming is weak, but careful enough, by the way, you can take the emergency flashlight, we can light the candles in the study."

"Okay." Cui Kaixuan looked very reluctant, didn't even say hello, and left directly.

Xiu Ming looked at the rest of the people, shrugged his shoulders, and followed. Gao Yi, on the other hand, nodded reassuringly.

……

"Gao Yi doesn't seem to know that heraldic can exorcise demons." After walking away, Cui Kaixuan said.

Xiu Ming agreed: "He shouldn't know, otherwise he wouldn't have asked you if you would open the door and get dirty."

"At the moment, Gao Yi doesn't like to see small groups of men, so I ...... just now"

"I know."

With that, the two came to the middle gate of the second floor, which was the same as the first floor, and could not be opened.

Next, I tried the room lock on the left.

Cui Kaixuan tried, "I can't open it, these locks are a little different from other locks, but it's not a big problem, wait for me to improve the tool." ”

"Let's go, let's go to the attic to catch mice, labor and management are starving to death, and when I think of braised pork, this saliva will flow." Cui Kaixuan gave up unlocking and turned on the flashlight on the side of the straight ladder.

"Can it work?" Xiu Ming asked.

"To prevent being bitten, we must first startle the snake, and then rely on the light of this flashlight to ensure our safety." Cui Kaixuan licked his lips: "Go, go up." ”

Cui Kaixuan and Xiu Ming climbed up the straight ladder one after the other, and when they arrived at the attic, Cui Kaixuan knocked on the stairs, making a dangdang sound, and then slammed into it and turned it over.

Xiu Ming also hurriedly followed, even if there was a mouse now, it would be game when roasted.

Under the light of the flashlight, it can be seen that it is about 1.5 meters high, and it needs to be bent over to walk, and the imaginary scene of a mouse running around in horror does not appear.

Everything was quiet and lifeless.

"Well, nothing. It's weird, hey. Cui Kaixuan touched his head, and Xiu Ming really couldn't figure it out: "Could it be that they were all eaten by female ghosts?" ”

Suddenly, an idea appeared in Xiu Ming's mind.

"Do you remember the big rat crouching in the corner on our first day of dinner?"

Cui Kaixuan replied: "Yes, it's really big." ”

"But after some time, we put the bait and we didn't catch a single mouse, even the bait was intact, will we ......?"

Hush......

Cui Kaixuan hurriedly gestured and asked, "You forgot what I told you?" ”

Xiu Ming was silent. Then he said, "I see." ”

Cui Kaixuan nodded: "Let's go further." See what you find. ”

Walking with your chest in your mouth, it is inconvenient to look around, and the light is not good, which is even more uncomfortable, and the two of them are one in front of the other.

The attic is always three meters wide, which is the length of a room, so there should be rooms that can't open the door at your feet.

Suddenly, Xiu Ming felt that he had stepped on something, so he squatted down and touched his feet.

It's cool, I picked it up and touched it, it's a key.

"Cui Kaixuan, I'...... Hey? What about people? ”

Just as Xiu Ming squatted down to pick up the key, Cui Kaixuan disappeared.

It was pitch black, nothing could be seen, and a hint of panic hit me.
