The longer he got to know this bat spirit, the more Hao Ren felt that this girl was simply a miracle condensed by the malice of the great universe, and the facts that happened in front of him made him even more convinced of this:

Vivien herself was poor, but the bats she fell from her body cultivated into a fine fortune, the landlord around her worked for the gods for a billion dollars, and even a broken stone she casually gave to her followers with several tons of gold to give birth to the Andre family - this girl is simply a personal mobile auspicious, and if properly applied, she can exchange her bad luck for the homes of the people around her to make a safe fortune.

Of course, there are very few times when this auspicious rui has a positive effect, most of the time she is better at making the people around her as unlucky as her, and the guys who are with her are easy to walk, lose money, drink water, stuff their teeth, and cramp their molars after sneezing - the Romans and Egyptians had something to say about this, and Hao Ren felt that even the Trojans could throw the pot on this auspicious bat spirit: who let her run at both ends of the city of Troy as a thug back then.

Perhaps the André family is one of the subtle ones: they have gained an astonishing fortune from Vivien's gifts, but they have been tossed by a deadly evil spirit for three hundred years, which may have far exceeded the value of the few tons of gold in the first place.

Lily patted Vivien on the shoulder, not missing any opportunity to provoke the bat: "Your trumpet is better than yours, and now even your teammates' trumpets are better than yours. ”

"Is this a space storage device?" Hao Ren curiously stepped forward and picked up the triangular gadget, his fingers quickly swiped over its few ridges, and the opening of the space closed: it seemed that even after such a long time. Its operation is still sensitive.

The number of jù terminals floated over and studied: "It should be said that it has the function of space storage, but this module only occupies one-third of its volume. The rest is on standby. It seems that it has to resonate with other devices to be effective, and the structure of the native scanning it is like a wireless device. ”

"Another stone......" Hao Ren looked up at Vivien. Where is the other stone now? ”

Vivian shrugged: "I don't know, now I only know that my little brother No. 1 has become the ancestor of the Andre family, but it is not clear whether my little brother No. 2 is dead or alive." The other 'stone' doesn't look the same as the one you have, and it may not bring wealth to the holder, and the little brother No. 2 probably doesn't have Andrei's good luck...... He may have died in the snow and ice of Siberia. ”

"You know what?" Hao Ren turned his head to look at Igor, and roughly talked about the two humans who followed Vivian in Siberia back then, "There should have been two people who followed the witch back then, in addition to your ancestors, there was another guy. He was also given a 'stone'. ”

Originally, Hao Ren didn't report much hope, but Igor really nodded: "...... A mysterious person, who lives in St. Petersburg, is supposed to be a descendant of the man you are talking about. ”

Hao Ren was a little surprised: "Mysterious person? ”

"For three hundred years, the Andrei family has had an intermittent connection with another hermit family," Igor scratched at the button on his chest, which seemed to be his habitual action when he pondered a question or was slightly nervous, "We don't know what the actual situation of the other party is, whether they are poor or rich. This intermittent bond has been passed down from our ancestors, and we exchange bits and pieces of information, such as whether the family members are healthy or not, and whether there are signs that some 'dark power' is out of control...... Don't dare to say much else. The letters are cryptic. Sometimes even we ourselves are not quite sure about the content of the letter - this is to prevent the evil spirit curse from being touched. And at any time, the other party will only send a representative to exchange letters with the Andre family, and what we know about the hidden family is limited to that one person. That's why I say 'a' mystery man. ”

"Why is it so troublesome?" Nangong May was a little puzzled, "Why don't you just contact it head-on?" Since they are all descendants of witch servants. You don't have to be so secretive about each other, right? ”

"They are also plagued by another curse, perhaps related to the content of their curse." Igor spread his hands, "This is a custom left over from our ancestors, although our respective ancestors worked together three hundred years ago, but after that terrible curse came into effect, our ancestors chose to isolate themselves from each other, and the descendants after this do not know why, but just cautiously comply. There is an evil spirit pressing on his head, and he must be careful in everything he does. ”

Igor then fetched a large pile of letters from another small room nearby: "This is what we communicated. ”

Now that the evil spirits in the castle have been banished, Igor is finally not afraid of any evil force that these things will provoke.

The letters were carefully kept, old and new, and the yellowing and weathering of the paper suggests that they come from a very large span of ages. Even the coat of arms of Catherine's time can be seen on the oldest letterheads. Hao Ren casually pulled out a letter from it, and found that it was an obscure code word and metaphor: "...... Friends from afar, I am in a stable situation, the sound of darkness has never left, but it has never spread from the nightmare to the outside. This year has been tougher than usual, and the wind in the Northland has an ominous smell in it, and two of the younger generations may not survive this winter: their shells are gradually emptying, an unspeakable darkness is replacing their souls, and perhaps next month I am not sure if they will still be themselves under their skins......"

Hao Ren pulled out another letter, which was written more than ten years ago and appeared to have been sent from St. Petersburg: "...... To distant friends, please allow me to introduce myself, I am Auguste, and I will continue to contact you on behalf of my father. My father has left this world of suffering, the nightmare has finally left him, and I hope that dark force will not continue to haunt his soul in another world. I've been in a bad situation lately, and that voice is starting to sound during the day, but that's probably why I'm not skilled enough......"

Hao Ren casually took a few letters and found that they were basically such obscure and plausible things. The letters spoke of the evil spirits that haunted them in a very careful way, and tried not to go into too much detail about their own situation, so that the deep fear of the writer could be seen between the lines. But Hao Ren only felt discord when he looked at them, and he asked Vivien, "How many angry spirits are there?" ”

"One," Vivien pointed to her feet, "the one we just did." ”

Nangong May frowned: "If there is only one angry spirit, then this one named August, what is his family entangled in?" ”

"Then we will only know if we find him," Hao Ren held up the last letter, which had been written a few months ago, "at least we have his contact address." Just go to him and get the stone back. Igor, can you help with a string? ”

Igor rubbed his hands together and showed a somewhat embarrassed expression: "Maybe I can write a letter...... But other than that, I'm afraid it won't help much. Auguste and I have relied entirely on these obscure correspondence for more than ten years, and we know very little about each other's families, nor can we speak of any personal friendship: because of the prohibition handed down from our ancestors, the members of our families do not even dare to meet. But if the witch reveals her identity in front of him, it should still be useful. ”

Vivien doesn't think so: "You can't put your hopes entirely on this, the other party may not be as ...... as you"

At this time, Nangong Sanba suddenly interjected: "Wait a minute, let me confirm - Igor, you said that Auguste lives in St. Petersburg?" Is his full name Auguste? Vtoriac? Lekikh? ”

Igor nodded in surprise: "That's right, you know? ”

May looked at him in surprise: "Brother, do you know this person?" ”

"This world is really not big," Nangong Sanba grinned, "August, I helped him do a tranquilization ceremony three years ago, he is a lonely man living in an old house on the outskirts of St. Petersburg, forty or fifty years old. ”

Everyone at the scene was amazed, and Igor felt that the drama was incredible, and he eagerly asked about the other family that had served the witch: "How is the situation of the Lekikh family?" Their family ......"

"Family? They don't have a family anymore," Nangong Sanba shook his head, "Just as Vivian worried, the other party is different from you: August is an old man who lives alone in the suburbs, without relatives and friends, I haven't seen anything related to witches in his old house, I'm afraid this family has fallen to the last step, it's hard to say if he still knows about witches." ”

Igor's eyes widened, and finally all his emotions turned into a long sigh. (To be continued......)
