Chapter 7: Enter the Moon Shadow, Corona Pavilion
Kongming Mountain is a tourist attraction with pleasant scenery and fragrant birds.
After passing the circular mountain road, two gorgeous houses appeared in front of me.
Moon Shadow Pavilion, known as the Corona Pavilion.
Both pavilions are covered with golden facades, both of which are typical Western-style buildings, and the houses themselves do not occupy a large area, but they are very classical and elegant, giving people the feeling of going back in time to centuries ago.
The roof of the Moon Shadow Pavilion is somewhat sloping, while the roof of the Lunar Shadow Pavilion is approximately circular. I don't know if the naming of the museum has anything to do with it. However, this is meaningless to the residents who come here to carry out the blood instructions.
Anyway, relying on the information photos found on the Internet, after repeated checks, I quickly determined which one was the Moon Shadow Pavilion and which one was the Corona Pavilion.
"Alright, it's finally here." Li Yinyao looked at the pavilion in the distance and said, "Since the location has been determined, let's go to the foot of the mountain first, and come back at night." ”
At the beginning, Xia Yuan's experience was there, and the time stipulated by the blood word has not yet started, so it is better to stay away. Otherwise, if he died, wouldn't he be very wronged.
I came here in advance to make sure I could find it.
Looking at the Moon Shadow Pavilion and the Crown Pavilion from afar, thinking that there were two ghosts in it that existed underground and had been writing letters that could not be sent for twenty years, I felt very palpitated.
According to the rules of the blood letter, the letter can not be sent to another ghost, but the ghost writes the letter to be sent. And it is certain that the ghost must receive a reply when he sends a letter.
At that time, Midnight once proposed the original text: "The original text of the blood word says, 'The resident cannot refuse the ghost to write a letter to send', so 'write well' and 'send' are two very important points." It must be 'written' and 'sent' at the same time. ”
"Sending out", of course, does not mean sending it to the ghost of the noodle restaurant opposite, but sending it outside.
It could be thrown out of the basement, or it could be ...... It was to come up and throw the letter to them. At that time, the letter must be accepted. After the tenant accepts the letter, he must have the ghost receive a reply.
In any case, what does it mean to accept a letter? Naturally, the letter is "taken" in the hand. Then it was up to the tenants whether to destroy the letter or forge it. But there must be a resident who "takes" the letter. Then, when the letter is "taken", it means that the resident accepts the letter and must let the ghost receive a reply.
Is there a way not to accept the letter? Through the loophole of the blood word or something......" Midnight made this point at the time.
And on this point, Li Yin and her also discussed it for a long time last night, and it turned out that it was impossible.
Because, the content of the blood word is too vague.
Because there are too many definitions of "write and send out". Whatever method the ghost uses to send the letter, the occupants must accept it. If you accept it, you must reply.
No matter how to confuse the definitions of "sending" and "receiving", this is an act that must be done, and after this act is completed, there must be a "reply". There is no way not to accept the letter, and even if you can get through it, the curse of the shadow may be activated. The curse of shadows, unlike ghosts, cannot be lifted in any way.
Within three hours, the ghost must receive a letter written and sent, and then the ghost must be replied to. The content of the reply letter is allowed to be forged, however, it must be written.
"The apartment didn't say that if we delivered the letter on time, the ghost wouldn't hurt us." On the way to the foot of the mountain, Li Yin said to the other five, "And there may be more than two ghosts. Everyone must be mentally prepared, and no matter what, we must not give up our vigilance. ”
"Is there really no way not to accept the letter?" Bai Yu was still very unwilling to say: "If you don't accept the letter, you can not reply to the letter......"
"In whatever way we 'don't accept' the letter, we will be violating the blood instructions. We were the 'postman', no, even the 'postbox' appointed by the apartment. Once the ghost drops a letter into our 'mailboxes', he must accept it, and it is impossible to spit it out. In short, it is necessary to accept the letter, and it is also necessary to reply to the letter. Unless we can get the ghost not to write and not deliver the letter to us, but that's impossible. It is impossible for us to influence the actions of the ghosts, and we cannot leave the annex. ”
That's the terrible thing about the scarlet word.
It must be accepted, and once accepted, it must be replied. This is equivalent to saying that after the ghost has written and sent the letter, he must reply to the letter!
"But do you really have to forge a letter?" Feng Yuxian, who had been silent, spoke: "It's too dangerous to forge a letter." First of all, can the handwriting be imitated smoothly? ”
"If it's handwriting, I can imitate it." Shangguan Mian suddenly spoke: "As long as I look at it once, the handwriting can be imitated." ”
Shangguan Mian said that as an elite killer cultivated by the "Black Forbidden Land", she naturally also underwent a lot of training, such as disguised as a person with various manners, unlocking passwords, and forging people's handwriting and seals, which she learned very easily. Her forged handwriting can be said to be vivid, and it is difficult to distinguish between the real and the fake. No matter how special the handwriting is, it can be easily imitated.
"Really?" Li Yin was a little surprised, so he took out a notebook from his body, then took out a pen, opened the notebook, and wrote a paragraph on it. It was Li Bai's "Silent Night Thoughts", and then handed it to Shangguan Mian, saying, "Can you try to imitate my handwriting?" You also write a song "Silent Night Thoughts" and come out and read it. ”
Shangguan Mian took the handwriting book, looked at it carefully for a while, and after about five minutes, she picked up the pen and began to write on another page of the notebook, "The bright moonlight in front of the bed is suspected to be frost on the ground......
When she wrote down the word "bed", Li Yin was amazed. The handwriting is exactly the same!
When she finished writing the word "township" in "bow your head and think of your hometown", she handed the notebook to Li Yin and said, "It's okay." ”
When I took the notebook, everyone gathered around. Everyone was extremely surprised and looked at Shangguan Mian in disbelief.
"This ...... This trace," Feng Yuxian looked at the two poems and exclaimed: "Exactly the same!" Even if it's copied, that's the case at most! ”
Li Yin was also amazed. At the same time, looking at Shangguan Mian's eyes, he was even more vigilant.
She...... Who the hell is it? Can the average person do such a thing? In less than five minutes, he imitated his own handwriting so perfectly!
"But ......" Feng Yuxian said again, "what about us?" Would you like Miss Shangguan Mian to write a reply letter and send it over? I feel like it's best to ask Miss Shangguan to write a reply, isn't it? ”
At this time, what Li Yin was worried about in his heart was not how to forge the letter. Forged letters are allowed in the apartment, presumably without making handwriting that is difficult to imitate.
The problem is that as the development continues, the residents of the two annexes may gradually become disagreeable.
This time, the blood letter indicates that the whereabouts of the Hell Contract fragments have not been released. In other words, it is impossible to find the contract fragment in either annex. This means ...... It doesn't matter if you sacrifice the other three.
I'm afraid this will happen later. Although Midnight would definitely not do that, it was difficult to say about Shangguan Mian and Bai Yu. And Murong Mirage and Feng Yuxian beside him are also ghosts.
Time flew by, and soon it was evening.
At midnight, the six of them came to the Moon Shadow Pavilion and the Crown Pavilion next to the cliff. The gate has long since decayed, and it opens with a kick.
"So...... And went in. ”
Watching Midnight walk towards the door of the Moon Shadow Pavilion, Li Yin and her glanced at each other, and then walked into the Yue Mian Pavilion.
Inside is a large living room, but with a few simple pieces of furniture. The house looked very dark, and the switch on the wall tried to turn it on, but it didn't turn on.
The haunted house I went to when I first executed the blood word in the middle of the night had electricity, but there was no electricity in this place.
Midnight came, and in this eerie room, it was as if a ghost would jump out of somewhere at any moment.
"Go find the basement." Li Yin immediately decided, as soon as the time came, the ghost would write a letter and send it out at any time. When the time comes, the letter must be sent to the other side!
Everyone slept in the morning, so the spirit was okay. Li Yin turned on the flashlight and searched for what might be the basement door. However, I didn't expect it to be easy to find, and behind a certain door in the living room, I found a staircase going down.
There are about thirty steps up this staircase, and there is a corner at the end, and then down, there is another corner. Finally, finally, to the bottom.
At the end of the staircase, there is an iron door. On the iron door, there is a window. The gate was covered with rusty locks.
"I'm here to see it." Li Yin walked to the door and said, "The ghost will send a letter through the window at any time. Do you want to stay together, or do you want to go up there? ”
"Let's stay together." Murong Mirage suddenly leaned his head to the window and looked inside!
In the basement, there is only a writing desk and a chair. He used his flashlight to shine inside, and on the writing desk, there was a bottle of ink and a pen.
"Hehe, is that where Ren Leon wrote his letter before his death?"
Li Yin immediately pulled him back and said, "Are you crazy? The ghost is inside, and you put your head in like this......"
"It's not big in there." Murong Mirage said indifferently: "There is no one either." ”
"It's just that there's no one on the surface." Li Yin lowered his voice and said, "Let's go up the steps above." According to the blood letters, the ghost will send the letter through this window. When the time comes......"
In any case, the concept of "giving away" is very subtle. It is likely that if the ghost throws the letter out of the basement, it is given away, or if it is not held in the hand and thrown on the ground, it is given.
There are all kinds of possible surnames.
Li Yin's heart was also full of torment. This time, knowing that the ghost is not far in front of him, he can't escape, so he must wait here for the letter to appear!
Of course, it would be ideal for the ghost not to write letters, but this is absolutely impossible.
At the same time, Midnight, Shangguan Mian, and Bai Yu also found the basement and came below.
The structure is almost the same as that of the Moon Shadow Pavilion, and when I came to the end of the steps, I saw the door. On the door, there is a small window.
"This door looks sturdy." Midnight took a rough look and said, "Although this lock is rusty, it is still here." ”
Then, she said to Shangguan Mian and Bai Yu behind her: "You two, go to the second floor to see where the telescopic iron clamp is, and confirm the location directly opposite the Crown Pavilion opposite." ”
"This ...... Okay, okay. Bai Yu hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Then I, let's go first." ”
Staying in this place so close to the ghost, anyone is going to have a nervous breakdown, let alone someone like Bai Yu who has just entered the apartment?
After Shangguan Mian and Bai Yu left, they walked to the place where they could see the basement door in the middle of the night and stared at the door.
Now look at when the ghost handed over the letter from the window.
Moon Shadow Pavilion or Crown Pavilion, which side will send the letter first?
If it is sent here first, then it means that there must be a reply. On the other hand, as long as the ghost on the other side does not write letters, there is no need to think about replying to letters. The cycle will go on forever.
Is there any way to live to the end of the blood letter?
At this time, Shangguan Mian and Bai Yu came to it. The gloomy room made Bai Yu's heart constantly beat, but Shangguan Mian didn't react at all. For the assassins, darkness is their shelter, and for a long time, Shangguan Mian's eyesight will not be greatly affected even in the dark.
The stairs were in front of the living room, and I walked up the stairs to the room opposite the Crown Pavilion, and opened it with a slight twist of the handle.
There was hardly any furniture inside, it was an empty room. And by the window, there is a large pliers. At the other end of this plier is a long iron pipe extending out.
The iron pipe was folded up, and Bai Yu picked it up and tried to unfold it, and it was able to stretch up to seven meters. And the length is just enough to reach the window of the Crown Pavilion opposite.
"What a strange tool......" Bai Yu tried to tear off a piece of paper and clamp it with pliers, and waved it a few times, but it didn't fall off.
"Looks like there's no problem."
Bai Yu breathed a sigh of relief.
Time, little by little, passes. Li Yin and Midnight both looked at the basement door in front of them.
At any time, waiting for the first letter to be sent.
Which side sent the letter first? Which side is it?
I don't know how long it took...... Li Yin suddenly heard something, and saw the basement door in front of him......
Is it coming?
In the darkness of the window, finally, something came out.
A white hand, holding an envelope, sticks out of the window!
