Chapter 9: The Secrets of the Town
The condition of the bamboo frame above the third floor at this time is not much better than the below, and the silver bell shuttles back and forth between the bamboo beams and columns, but she can't find the 'girl tied to the bamboo frame' that Acha Suya said.
Yinling wasn't in a hurry, but he couldn't figure out why he couldn't even find a creature the size of a person in a place where there was no shelter around and inside?
Ginling also did not doubt her master's words, because Achasuya was a person who would never lie when cooperating with his actions, and he was able to give his companions a full sense of trust and security.
Then the only explanation is that the girl is in a place where she has not been, and according to the shape of the house, there must be no place on the left and right that Silver Bell has not found. Therefore, it is still necessary to enter the upper floor.
However, it is difficult to find the passage above the fourth floor of the bamboo and wood frame, and it should be hidden by the people who built it.
Einsin followed the example of Acha Suya's usual search for secrets, and carefully shook and tapped on each shelf and every adjacent wall, hoping to find out where the mechanism was located.
Although this is a waste of time, but Yinling has no better way at the moment, it knows that the reason why Achasuya stayed in the lower layer by herself is to block the danger for it, Yinling warned herself that she must find the girl that the master said.
Ten minutes later, all the shelves and walls on the fourth floor of the bamboo and wood frame have been checked, and there is no looseness except for the cover plate that came up just now.
There was no way, so Yinling had to go back to the third floor through the gap where the cover was opened just now, hoping to find something on the third floor.
At this time, Ah Cha Suya was on the second floor, where the ghosts might be concentrated, and when she looked up and saw that Yinling had actually returned to the third floor of the bamboo and wooden frame, Ah Cha Suya asked loudly, "Have you found the girl?"
"No, Master Su Ya, there are no girls on the fourth floor at all, and there is no way to the upper floor, I am looking for if there is any hidden mechanism or something, otherwise I won't be able to go up!"
"Hey?!" Ah Cha Suya turned over, climbed three floors from the periphery of the bamboo and wooden frame, came to the silver bell and said: "This is really strange, I obviously smelled the smell of rotting corpses on the lower two floors, but I didn't see a ghost, and there was no connecting passage above, what the hell is going on?"
"Lord Su Ya, why don't I stay on the third floor, and you can go up and have a look?" asked Yinling.
"No need, what's the use of you not finding me and going up, maybe the secret is on these three floors, or ......" Ah Cha Suya's eyes looked at the open cover, as if she thought of something.
"Could it be that the third and fourth floors share the same passage?" Acha Suya muttered.
"Master Su Ya, what are you talking about?"
"I remember that the previous owner of this place once showed me the little mechanism he designed, and he liked to put several passages or exits together in the same place to confuse people who wanted to spy on secrets, maybe the same method was used here?"
"However, there is nothing special about the gap that this cover opens, after entering it, there is a small space separated by a wall and a cover, and there is a gap leading directly to the fourth floor!"
"That's ......" Ah Cha Suya thought for a few seconds and said, "You get out of the way, I'll try it." ”
After saying that, he waited for the silver bell to retreat into the corner of the third floor, then turned around, stretched the black wooden stick in his hand into the gap in the cover, and slammed it against the small piece of wall blocked by the cover.
"Bang!" "Ahh......h
It seemed that the sound of something being opened and the exclamation of the silver bell sounded at the same time, and Ah Cha Suya didn't care to look at what was opened, and instantly turned back to look at the condition of the silver bell.
"Lord Suya!!, Lord !! behind!!Ah!!hh
Fortunately, Ah Cha Suya's head was agile and his actions were fast, and after a pause of half a second, he was somewhat aware of the reason why he couldn't find the ghost, and suddenly threw the purple mountain Xuanmu stick in his hand to his back, and then pulled it against his back, while feeling the pain, the blade of the iron piece wrapped by the purple mountain Xuanmu stick also had a little black and red like rotten flesh on it.
It's an incomplete entity, and part of its body is already a little fleshy, but it's still a long way from covering its entire body.
The ghosts in the town are really unusual, they know that Achasuya can sense their presence, so they spread the smell of rotting corpses everywhere, and then lie quietly on Achasuya's back to avoid attacks and preserve their strength.
Although the strength of low-level ghosts is weak, they have the 'advantage' that they can be used to escape, that is, the creatures they touch do not have feelings and humans, so even if the low-level ghosts hide on other creatures, as long as they avoid the sight, they will never be detected.
Moreover, the low-level ghosts have almost no weight, and even if they have a dozen of them on their bodies, they will not feel anything. Acha Suya's current situation is like this, there is more than a ghost lying behind him.
The werewolf man's back is wider than that of a normal human, and the ghosts lying on Achasuya's back are incomplete, some can only see a rotten arm or leg, and even more can only see a piece of rotten skin or a small piece of internal organs. (Anyway, whichever part of the human body the ghost eats, which part of the flesh will grow)
In this way, in Yinling's eyes, Achasuya's back was crawling with all kinds of stumps and broken arms, slices of carrion, and rotting internal organs with blood vessels. It was terrifying, and it was no wonder that it tore open its throat and screamed.
