In the face of this strange old man, I was actually thinking about whether to tell the truth or not.

After all, this is Wang Hao's territory, and the old gentleman may be Wang Hao's person.

But I've always felt that sometimes telling the truth is the best way to solve the problem, and deception for any reason will make things even more out of control. So I still shook my head and said: "I am not Wang Hao's person, and I can even say that I am Wang Hao's enemy." ”

The old gentleman didn't give me an immediate reaction, but just looked me up and down before asking, "What's your name?" What are the holidays with Wang Hao? ”

I briefly introduced myself and told me about Wang Hao.

After listening to my narration, the old gentleman smiled slightly: "Yes, Xiao Yang, you are an upright person. My surname is Wei, you can call me Mr. Wei, I am from Sioux City, I took over this villa from Wang Hao two years ago, maybe you have heard of it. ”

Mr. Wei? From Sioux City?

Of course I've heard of him, in addition to the two immortals in Lexian, there are two groups of people who have entered this villa, one is the monks who do things, and the other is Mr. Wei, the unaccounted for Mr. Wei, the metaphysical master of Sucheng, of course, is the one in front of him.

Unexpectedly, Mr. Wei had been hiding in the villa.

I was relieved to find out who this old gentleman was, at least he wasn't a ghost......

Wait, if he disappeared for two years, but today he suddenly appeared, who can guarantee that he is not a ghost?

I glanced at him warily and saw that his face was slightly pale, but he was very neatly dressed, and he did not look like a lonely ghost.

Mr. Wei glanced at me and asked with a smile, "What?" You think I'm a ghost? ”

"Mr. Wei, I'm really sorry, it is said that you have not been seen since you entered this villa, where have you been during this time?" I asked in a low voice as I placed the red string gourd in my hand in front of me.

Mr. Wei noticed my movements, looked down, and said with a smile: "Oh, what a magic weapon, it's very expensive." ”

I smiled awkwardly, and Mr. Wei continued: "Your question is also very interesting, think about it yourself, what are the similarities between our two situations? ”

"...... are we both?" I wondered, "What do you mean?" ”

Mr. Wei said with a smile: "Actually, you are the same me back then, and the two of us were also entrusted by Wang Hao to deal with the affairs in the villa, didn't you handle it very well?" What happened to you? ”

"...... by Wang Hao Kill somebody to do away with a witness? I said suddenly.

Mr. Wei nodded and said, "That's it, if I hadn't disappeared two years ago, but had figured out the situation and left the villa, I might have been killed by Wang Hao." ”

Hearing this, I couldn't help but feel a chill in my heart.

This villa is actually Wang Hao's dirty secret, and the people who come here to investigate will either achieve nothing and find nothing, but if they find something, they will be killed in an instant.

"So you've been hiding in the villa all the time?" I asked.

When Mr. Wei heard this, he smiled contemptuously and said, "You are underestimating me too much. Wang Hao is indeed a guy with great means and ability, but it is not so easy to kill me. I am also a well-known figure in Sioux City, and the whole Sioux City heard the rumors before I came to the villa, if I suddenly die, Wang Hao naturally can't bear the consequences......"

Speaking of this, Mr. Wei gently tapped the coffee table next to him with his fingers and continued: "The reason why I stayed here, in addition to being too lazy to entangle with a local snake like Wang Hao, is mostly to find out the secrets of this villa, and the reason why I came to this villa in the first place is actually because of this incident." ”

Secret? Is it referring to the sandalwood box?

I know in my heart that curiosity kills cats, so no matter what the secret is, I have no interest in hearing about it.

However, Mr. Wei seems to have taken the initiative to speak.

He got up from the wicker chair and led me a few steps to the front of the villa, when I saw that the space in front of the villa had collapsed, and the entire floor had sunk into a huge hole in the ground.

Mr. Wei said: "If you were in a hurry just now, you might have fallen from here." ”

I hurriedly and sincerely said, "Thank you Mr. Wei for saving your life." ”

Mr. Wei didn't say anything, but continued to narrate: "At first, there was a legend about this villa, it is said that this treasure is buried under the garden behind the villa, and this treasure is rare and extremely precious. The reason why Wang Hao bought this place is also related to this legend...... But legend has it that this treasure is under special protection, and it is said that if you want to take out this treasure, you must sacrifice ten lives......"

"That's weird, isn't it? This kind of rumor is not based at all? I said with a frown.

Sacrificing ten lives to take out a treasure sounds naïve, right?

Mr. Wei also sneered a few times and said: "However, Wang Hao just listened to this sentence, in order to prevent his own people from dying from this terrible curse, he hired a decoration team of more than ten people to come to the door in the name of decorating the villa, the purpose is to let them be substitutes for the dead...... On the night of the excavation, disaster struck, the villa collapsed, and almost all members of the renovation team died tragically......"

Speaking of this, Mr. Wei's expression was unusually heavy.

I knew in my heart that it was not Wang Hao who had dug up the treasure, but someone else, but Mr. Wei didn't seem to know this detail.

I didn't rush to tell him, after all, I had no evidence in my hands, and my words were unsubstantiated.

Mr. Wei said as he led me downstairs and walked in the direction of the Suzhou garden behind the villa.

When I went downstairs, I saw the part that had caused the collapse in the first place.

I saw a rockery in the garden revealing an outline similar to the entrance of the tunnel, and further down should be the place where the treasure was buried.

Mr. Wei let out a long sigh and said: "In the past two years, I have made secret visits, and I can be regarded as figuring out the cause of the collapse accident in the first place. It's all just because of a very simple mechanism, taking out the treasure triggers the mechanism, which caused the collapse of the villa and the tragic death of the renovation team...... In the final analysis, it has nothing to do with the curse of ten lives, Wang Hao killed ten innocent lives just because of superstition about this curse. ”

After listening to Mr. Wei's narration, I also felt a sense of sadness in my heart.

The death of these people in the decoration team was completely meaningless and completely avoidable, and it was a premeditated massacre caused by Wang Hao's superstition.

However, after thinking about it calmly, I found that there is actually another person who needs to be responsible for this matter, and that is Cao Ying.

If Wang Hao had come to dig up the treasure that night, with his economic strength and thoughtfulness, he would have invited a skilled craftsman to investigate before he started, and he would probably have discovered and dismantled the simple mechanism.

But after Cao Ying learned the whole thing, he rushed here to dig up the treasure, and the clumsy technology caused Cao Ying to trigger the death switch, which eventually led to a tragedy...... So from this point of view, it was Cao Ying who directly killed these people.

But whether it is Wang Hao or Cao Ying, they both have unshirkable responsibilities in this matter.

Cao Ying is dead, and only Wang Hao has not yet been retributed.

I asked Mr. Wei, "How are you going to solve this problem, and how long are you going to hide like this?" ”

Mr. Wei shook his head: "I don't know, there are still several lonely ghosts in the entire villa who have not yet left, they are victims, but they may harm others at any time...... I was upset if I didn't clean them up. ”

Speaking of this, I suddenly remembered the panda and Lao Jiang who had disappeared for a long time.

"Oops! Mr. Wei, I still have two friends, have you seen them both? ”

Mr. Wei's face changed: "Oops, the lonely souls and wild ghosts in the house are extremely capable of possession, your friends must not be possessed by them!" ”

Mr. Wei and I went upstairs in a panic, and I shouted in a low voice, "Panda! Lao Jiang! ”

However, there was still no response, but when Mr. Wei and I went up to the second floor, I saw a scene that shocked me......

Six killers in suits and daggers walked towards me and Mr. Wei through the corridor on the second floor, and they were so murderous that they looked like a terrifying army.

"Oops, Mr. Wei, this is the killer sent by Wang Hao to hunt me down, you run, I can't trouble you......" I whispered, my voice already shaking. Without pandas, I would not be a match for these six people at all.

When Mr. Wei heard this, he asked in surprise: "Young man, we just met, and you are kind enough to let me go first?" ”

"After all, this is the enemy I attracted, it has nothing to do with you, go quickly!" I said in a deep voice, standing in front of Mr. Wei.

At this time, Mr. Wei smiled lightly: "Good boy, I really didn't read it wrong, you kid is very righteous!" ”

I was wondering how Mr. Wei could still laugh in such a dangerous situation, so I heard him whisper: "These six killers are no longer Wang Hao's killers, don't worry......"

Before the words fell, the six fierce killers suddenly knelt down towards Mr. Wei and said in unison: "Immortal Wei, you have to call the shots for us!" ”

It's so weird! All of a sudden, the killers fell to their knees, and their accents changed to local dialects!

The strangest thing is that two of the killers are foreigners, but these two foreigners speak very slippery dialects!

I was stunned for about two seconds, and then suddenly I realized that it was upper! These six killers were all killed by the souls of the renovation team! Just like Zhang Banxian!

Mr. Wei looked at everyone, smiled slightly, and said, "I didn't expect that this matter would be solved like this." I've been with them for so long, and I've finally heard them speak......"

One of the killers suddenly stood up and said in a hoarse voice: "Mr. Wei, we are unwilling, we hate!" We want revenge! ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone chimed in: "We want revenge!" ”
