Chapter 426: Exploring the Tower

Then we looked for a while, but we didn't find any guards outside, and the dwelling was very large and high, like a castle, about seven or eight stories high, surrounded by an iron fence, and the gate was closed, and there was no light, and it looked eerie like a haunted house.

"Why does this place look like some evil sects?" I don't know why, looking at the dark room, I only feel the cold air swishing from my back. The walls are no longer visible here, because there is a small hill in the middle, and the houses are backed by the slope, and the searchlights do not shine here, which makes it even darker.

"Be careful, let's get inside." Poisonous Butterfly Road.

I nodded, found a dead end in the view of the house, leaned over, and then, carefully, trying not to make any sound, climbed over the iron fence.

The poisonous butterfly followed and rolled in, and then we leaned against the base of the wall and felt a little bit towards the main entrance.

When I got to the main entrance, I looked at it for a while, saw that there was no one, and was about to get up.

"Don't worry, I'll take a look."

The poisonous butterfly pulled me back, then took out a small black bottle from my bag, tore off a black talisman sealed on it, pulled out the stopper and gently placed it on the ground.

Immediately afterwards, I saw a black line slowly extending out of the bottle and slowly heading towards the inside of the door.

When I looked closely, I found that the black lines turned out to be a column of ants, which looked a little big, and there was an extra pair of antennae on the head.

"What kind of Gu is this?" I'm curious.

Poisonous Butterfly said: "This is called the patrol ant Gu, there will be such a ant Gu in every nest of ants, take three hundred and sixty, feed a drop of living human blood every morning and evening, let them fight, fight, devour, after seven seven forty-nine days, they can be refined into a patrol ant Gu, because they have eaten the blood of living people, so they are very sensitive to the blood of living people, and they will use their antennae to alarm when they encounter living people, but they can only use it once, and then they will die." ”

I nodded, feeling incredible, and asked, "How many suitable primordial Gu exist in that nest of ants?" ”

The poisonous butterfly said: "There are three or two less, and more than a dozen." ”

"It's too little, isn't it?" I was dumbfounded, a nest of ants at most a dozen or so, a total of three hundred and sixty, in other words, if you are lucky, you have to dig out thirty or forty ant nests, which is not counting the effort of picking, a nest of ants is not to say how many thousands or even tens of thousands, to pick out the suitable ant Gu from the ant colony, it is also a very laborious work.

"What do you think, Gu worms are not so easy to cultivate, otherwise the world would have been in chaos a long time ago." The poisonous butterfly gave me a disdainful look.

I was speechless for a while, but thinking about it, if Gu worms could be cultivated casually, it would be too cheap. And cheap things have one thing in common, flooding. That is, the world is in chaos as the poisonous butterfly said.

After the patrol ant Gu entered through the crack in the door, the poisonous butterfly listened carefully and said, "There is no one inside, let's go in." ”

I nodded, walked to the main entrance, and saw that the door was closed, and there was a very ordinary lock on the door.

I pulled a wire out of my bag, bent it a little, and slipped it into the keyhole...... The fat man once taught me to pick locks with wire, and he was taught by Miao Miao.

Its practical wire unlocking is not difficult, it only needs to be sensitive enough to the touch.

The wire is inserted into the upturn, slowly feel the position of the lock spring inside, and then open the lock spring one by one, and twist it after completion, and the lock cylinder will naturally open without the restriction of the lock spring.

The principle is very simple, but the difficulty lies in how to top the lock spring, because it is invisible, it is completely dependent on the feeling of the hand, if the top is wrong, the wire is bent and broken, or the lock spring is not fully opened to twist, so that the wire is twisted into a ball of twist in it, it will naturally fail, and delay time.

After about ten seconds, there was a click, and the lock opened.

I slowly pushed the door and walked in, and the poisonous butterfly followed, glanced at me, and said, "It feels good." ”

"That has to drop." I replied to her and began to look at the house, and my first feeling was that there was no popularity, no popularity at all, and although the floor was spotless, it was eerie, colder than the outside. And the house was still empty, with only a few miscellaneous items lying in the corners.

I let out a breath of hot air, and I felt that the fog was not thicker than outside, and my heart couldn't help but tighten, this place, the yin qi is not ordinarily heavy.

"Isn't there going to be no one living here?" I asked strangely, although it is Miao Weitang's residence, but the ghost knows if he usually lives here, and it is not necessary that he uses this place as a warehouse. Moreover, how can a living person live in such an eerie place, it feels like a mass grave, not to mention living here for a long time, ordinary people may be washed away even if they spend the night here.

"The ground is clean, someone must have cleaned it." Poison Butterfly analyzed, but she frowned slightly, obviously muttering in her heart.

Then we searched with a glimmer flashlight, but found nothing.

So we set our sights on the staircase up to the second floor, which was made of marble, unpolished, and looked a little uneven, obviously old, and dyed with a dark red or even black color, like dried blood.

My scalp is numb, not only on the stairs, but also on the walls on both sides.

Instinctively, I thought of the slaughterhouse in Qinglong Town, where the walls and floors had such a color, and despite countless washes, that color could never be washed clean.

And there is a faint smell of blood lingering on the tip of the nose, condensing but not dissipating. The poisonous butterfly also noticed these traces, and its face changed slightly.

I swallowed a mouthful of saliva and asked, "How can there be blood?" ”

"Something isn't right here, be careful." The poisonous butterfly shook its head slowly and didn't say anything.

Then, the poisonous butterfly would only patrol the ant Gu and go upstairs, and then listened to it for a while, and said, "There is still no one upstairs." ”

I couldn't help but feel my heart throb, in this case, I'd rather have someone upstairs!

Because it's so eerie, I'd rather face a tough enemy than something that sends chills down my spine.

I grabbed the heavy knife in my hand and walked upstairs step by step, followed by the poisonous butterfly.

Then we went up to the second floor, and the top and bottom were the same, clean and spotless, but also equally unpopular, and even more eerie, with the air swishing straight to the cuffs and neck and into the clothes. The weirdest thing is that the darkness here seems to be sticky, and the range of the shimmer flashlight is even smaller.

"Go on."

The poisonous butterfly looked at the stairs leading to the third floor.

"Tick, tick, tick......"

It was deathly silent, and with each step, the slight sound of footsteps came out, which was strangely amplified, and it was very clear to the ears.

As he walked, the poisonous butterfly suddenly shook.

I was stunned by her and hurriedly whispered, "What's wrong?" ”

Poison Butterfly's face was faintly not good-looking, and said, "I'm not sure yet, wait for you to synchronize with me, and then listen to the footsteps." ”

I nodded hurriedly, then lifted my foot and went up a step at the same time as the poisonous butterfly.

"Tick ......"

Footsteps came out, then echoes, but between echoes.

"Tick!" Another bang.

I felt a chill rush from the soles of my feet to my head, and the hairs on my body exploded. There is a voice in the back that does not belong to us, hidden in the middle of the echo, and if you don't listen carefully, I'm afraid it will be confusing.

"Who! Sneaky one, get out! ”

I immediately turned my head and shouted at the sword in the direction of the downstairs, since I was targeted, there was nothing to hide.

The poisonous butterfly's face turned a little pale, and instinctively leaned close to me, grabbing the corner of my clothes.

Without hesitation, I discarded the glimmer flashlight, took out the flashlight, and shone it under the stairs.

Can it be ...... for a long time Downstairs, all I could hear was my hearty echo, and there was no movement.

My palms began to sweat and I asked the poisonous butterfly, "Could it be a mouse or a cat or something?" ”

The poisonous butterfly settled down and said, "There is no wind here, light a candle, if it is extinguished, it will be dirty, if it is not extinguished, it will be a living thing." ”

I felt that it made sense, and before I could nod my head, the poisonous butterfly had already begun to move, took out a pack of candles, lit one, and dripped a drop of wax to stabilize the candle.

Then, we continued to walk upstairs, I don't know if my shouting worked, there was no footsteps downstairs, there was a dead silence, and the candles were burning steadily.

The poisonous butterfly was not very relieved, and squatted down to light a candle every time it walked.

Soon, we explored the seventh floor, and the candles in Poison Butterfly's hand were almost out of stock, so I took out two more packs from my bag before refilling.

This was followed by the eighth and ninth floors.

By the time I got to the tenth floor, the candles below had already formed seventeen or eighteen bends, and there was a bright light.

"Look at how many floors are upstairs." The poisonous butterfly lit a candle and asked.

I hurriedly shone the flashlight up, but I couldn't see it clearly, and said, "I can't count, there are many buildings." ”

After saying that, I was stunned, and then I shuddered!

The poisonous butterfly's hand shook, and the candle fell to the ground.

"Something is wrong with the building!"

I roared in my heart; When I came in, I saw the height of the building, about seven or eight stories high, and it was more than 20 meters high.

But now we're on the tenth floor, and there's a lot of floors on it.

At a glance, the distance between the buildings here is more than three meters, and it is nearly four meters, which is taller than two people stacked on top of each other. Ten floors is forty meters, nearly twice as high, and it's not even at the top!

Ghosts!

The poisonous butterfly didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly took out the delicate ball and grabbed it in the palm of his hand.

At this moment, without warning, the bright flashlight in my hand suddenly went out, and the surroundings suddenly went dark, only the candles were still burning faintly.

My heart jumped to my throat, and this was not the end, because I suddenly found that the poisonous butterfly was looking straight downstairs, and its face was completely bloody.

I hurriedly followed and found that the candles downstairs were being extinguished one by one.

At the same time.

"Tick, tick, tick, tick......"

The sound of clear footsteps coming upstairs was like a death pendulum to the ears.
