Chapter 175, The Island Puja in the Storm
It's gone!
Not only is she visually gone, but she herself seems to have disappeared from this bed! I don't believe that human movements can be so fast, even if she is not a normal person now. But just because she has an extra layer of weird bark doesn't mean she can turn into The Flash.
I hurriedly scratched the bed with both hands, but there was nothing on the bed at all, and I went under the bed again and stretched out my hand to sweep it, but I didn't touch anything either.
I looked back at the man in the wheelchair, and his expression was just as shocked.
"How...... What's going on? ”
Before I could ask a question, the man in the wheelchair asked me a question.
"I'm supposed to ask you, right? What the hell is going on? How much do you know about the changes that have taken place in Li Xi? Did you know she would kill someone? I walked up to the wheelchair man and asked.
He shook his head again and again and said, "No! We've never had a fatality here! ”
"Less! You've got a fucking monster under the lighthouse, and the soldier said you killed a lot of people a year ago trying to catch it! I said angrily.
"Those are two different things, the dead are mercenaries, and they signed the documents of life and death."
"Life and death papers?" I couldn't help but laugh. "What age are you? Do you really think you're still alive in the Republic of China? Do you think this is the rivers and lakes? It's a rule of law society in New China, buddy, wake me up! ”
If a few hours ago I was a little wary of the wheelchair man and the seniors gathered in the room, now I really don't care about them. Someone died, and these guys' cousins were too wooden. I really don't know what these people are doing to the puja for.
The wheelchair man also lost the calmness he had when he organized everyone to guess the riddle, and it seemed that the disappearance of the princess gave him quite a shock, and I guess I don't need to say that he himself knows that things are moving in an unknown direction.
I didn't waste any more time in Li Xi's room, where is the person, let the wheelchair man think about it himself.
Wu Xin and I left the princess's secret bedroom together. Then he went to Hall Master Liu's room on the first floor, where the people were basically scattered, only Xi Lin and the housekeeper and a few workers in the mansion were still here.
When Xi Lin saw that I had returned, he immediately asked me what I had discovered, and instead of answering him immediately, I asked, "What are you here for this puja?" Are you familiar with people in this business? It can't be that the two old men received the invitation and asked you to act as an agent, right? ”
"It doesn't matter why I'm here." Xi Lin said.
"Important! I only have three days to live! Just now I saw the ghost of Hall Master Liu, and he told me that there are no good people in front of the mirror. The king of Yama will take my life in three days! I said to Xi Lin.
Xi Lin didn't speak, and there wasn't even any change in expression on his face, and his reaction made me chuckle in my heart. Obviously, he knew that I was dying, and he knew what he was going to do next, and he wasn't my friend now.
"Vivi, let's go."
After saying that, I glared at Xi Lin and took a few steps back, then turned around and walked back to the staircase, went upstairs, and returned to our room on the third floor.
I entered the house and closed the door. Wu Xin immediately asked, "What's going on?" I'm a little confused. ”
In the current situation, I felt that there was no need to abide by any agreement between friends, so I told Wu Xin in detail about Xi Lin's special identity and my analysis of the current situation.
Wu Xin didn't seem too surprised after hearing this, maybe it had something to do with the fact that she had already seen that Xi Lin had a background, she just asked me what I was going to do next, if I wanted to leave tonight.
Without even thinking about it, I shook my head and said that I must not leave.
I still have three days left in my life, this matter is not obvious to ordinary people, and it is impossible for that Liu Hall Master to know, I can completely understand that he is passing a message to me instead of King Yama In addition, there is also a one-eyed princess on this island who cannot be seen, she can control the blood on her body, and she can also play stealth and kill, and there is a hell guard dog under the lighthouse Finally, there is a yin who is watching from the sidelines......
It was a mess, and I couldn't figure it out at all.
Although it was late, I decided to give Mr. Wu a call and ask him if he had foreseen anything, so I was asked to come over. But another unexpected situation occurred, my mobile phone did not have any signal at all, and I couldn't even call the police, and Wu Xin's mobile phone also had the same situation.
There was a landline in the room, and we used this phone, but the phone could only be connected to the internal line, and could not be called outside.
When I found out, I immediately went to the first floor.
The key is still in Hall Master Liu's room, the body in the room was missing when I passed, the room has also been tidied up, and the dents on the wall are also blocked by a few newly hung paintings, it seems that these people don't want the outside world to know about the death here, I guess they must not have called the police.
When the butler saw me, he politely asked me what was the matter.
I told him bluntly that I wanted to make a phone call, and that I wanted to leave the island early tomorrow morning. Of course, I didn't want to go, I just wanted to test the butler's reaction.
"Is there such a thing?" His first sentence expressed his surprise, then took out his own mobile phone and looked at it, dialed another phone and tried, "There is really no signal." "His acting skills are so poor that anyone can tell that he already knows that there is no way to make a phone call here.
"Then can you arrange my departure from the island?" I continued to ask.
"Yes, this is okay, I'll coordinate and see if I can arrange a boat for you early tomorrow morning, but it seems that there will be ...... at sea tonight"
"There's going to be a storm, right?" I asked with a smile.
The housekeeper was stunned for a moment, and then nodded again and again: "Yes, yes, yes, there will be a storm." So there may not be a ship coming tomorrow, maybe you have to wait...... Wait three or four days, probably. ”
He had calculated really well at this time, three to four days, my life was just over, and the people in this mansion were obviously planning something. Sluggish co-talent.
I didn't talk nonsense with him anymore, and although I didn't have much time left, it was obviously unwise to stay up late and not have the energy and body to continue to deal with what might happen next. After returning to the room, Wu Xin and I set a time, and the two of us took turns to rest, while one person slept, the other person was responsible for controlling the wind to prevent any more stealth mud people from coming to sneak attack.
That's what I said, but I fell asleep and slept until dawn, and by the time I opened my eyes again, it was past 6 o'clock in the morning. Wu Xin was sitting on a chair by the window when I lay down, and when I woke up, she was still sitting there, I couldn't see her face, and I didn't know if she was asleep or awake, so I waved at her.
"Are you resting well?" Wu Xin immediately responded.
"You haven't slept?"
"I don't care, I usually only sleep for an hour or two, rather than both of us being confused, it's better to keep one of us awake. And I know very well how long I can live on my own, you don't care about my condition, it's better to care more about yourself. ”
Wu Xin has a point, I'm really in good shape now, I still have two and a half days to live, and I have to figure out what's going on on the island in the next 24 hours, which is my deadline.
After washing up, the butler came and knocked on the door to inform us that we could go to the banquet hall on the second floor for breakfast, and the puja would officially start at 8 a.m.
When Wu Xin and I arrived at the banquet hall, there were already more than a dozen people inside. Compared to yesterday, the expressions on the faces of these people have changed a little, after all, there is a dead person, and they probably should know that the phone cannot be called. The whole breakfast was very quiet, no one spoke, I didn't make a sound, and I didn't see Xi Lin appear.
Forty minutes later, the butler took us to a very spacious hall on the first floor, in the middle of which there was a gossip-shaped ring, and tables, chairs, and tea sets were placed around the wall.
I have been paying attention to the situation outside since I got up in the morning, it was very cloudy today, and the wind was very strong outside, and it seemed that the storm mentioned by the butler last night was not just a perfunctory remark to me, and there might not be a ship coming today.
Before the festival began, I asked the steward to confirm if I could arrange a boat to take me back today, but the answer I got was the same as I expected, there would be no boat today, let alone a helicopter or other means of transportation, and I had to wait for tomorrow to leave the island.
At 8 o'clock, the wheelchair man reappeared in the venue, he was still the same as when he first appeared yesterday, and everyone respected him very much, but my attitude towards him and the people around me has changed, and I think this change comes more from the change in my heart I don't trust these people, or their actions have not won my trust and respect.
The wheelchair man first explained what happened last night, and the explanation he gave for the death of Hall Master Liu was that Hall Master Liu invited God in the room, but unexpectedly invited an evil god that he couldn't control, and finally led him to die.
What he said was clearly false, but none of those present objected. I didn't think it was necessary to talk nonsense with him, so I just sat on the side and watched what kind of medicine he was selling in the gourd.
After talking about the principles of yin and yang, the wheelchair man finally got to the point, he said that the first project of today's festival is to show each family the ability to exorcise evil spirits and subdue demons, but this time it is different from the past, he has prepared a specific exorcism object.
After saying this, I glanced at the butler, who immediately opened the door to the hall, and several workers from the mansion then pushed in a two-meter-high object, which looked like an upright coffin, and the coffin was obviously made of metal.
The worker put the coffin in the middle of the gossip table in the venue, and as soon as the wheelchair man raised his hand, the coffin boards on all sides immediately fell down in four directions, and a woman with a full body appeared on the table, and it was a pregnant woman with a big belly!
That's the wheelchair man's sister, the nun from yesterday!
"This is the object of your exorcism, the steel virgin who is pregnant with a ghost fetus!" The wheelchair man introduced everyone cold-bloodedly.
