Chapter 4: The Manor
It took the greatest perseverance to control himself without screaming.
I understand that shouting out loud at such times doesn't help.
"Calm down, calm down!"
Admonishing himself, the thumb of his right hand pressed the button at the swallow of the short sword, and silently, the black short sword was unsheathed.
The muscles on his right hand, which held the hilt of the sword, bulged and trembled.
I didn't dare to look up, for fear of seeing something terrible.
It is said that when encountering unnatural events, as long as you don't meet with evil things, then the danger will be reduced by more than half, and if you are eye to eye, the danger index will increase several times, and the evil things that are easy to stimulate will go berserk and hurt people.
These are the words of the masters who work in the car dealership when they chat, and they are usually used as a way to adjust their lives, but at this moment, they are very clear in my heart.
"Whew!"
Swinging the dagger with maximum force.
The blade slashed through a black light, making a sound that broke through the air, and slashed at the strange foot above the right shoulder!
A shocking scene appeared.
I felt that the speed of the dagger was fast enough, but the thing was obviously a little faster, and before the dagger could be implemented, the foot fluttered upward, and the dagger slashed through the gap.
I stumbled and almost fell to the ground, but I turned sharply and looked up, holding a short sword, and if I found the other, I wouldn't mind trying to do it again.
But there was nothing in front of him.
With a heart move, I walked to the mirror and looked at the bathroom in reverse through the mirror.
There are no anomalies, no anomalies.
"Wait, what's that?"
The corner of his eye jumped, and through the mirror, he found that there were many black marks on the wall behind him, which was far away and could not be seen clearly.
Turning his head to look at the wall, there was nothing on the tiled wall.
When I turned my head again, there was nothing left on the wall reflected in the mirror.
After taking a few deep breaths, I could still hear the sound of my heart beating 'thump', and I was scared.
Jokes, don't say anything about the big man's bold words that are not afraid of heaven and earth, those are all some people bragging on the wine table, in exchange for them here, coldly seeing such a terrifying foot on his shoulder, maybe he was so frightened that he finished his life on the spot.
I adjusted a few breaths and didn't rush out of the bathroom.
The scene just now proves that the black sword does have the effect of exorcism, although the thing dodged the short sword slash, but then did not dare to show up, which is enough to explain the problem, it is afraid of the short sword.
That being the case, there is certainly no need to panic too much.
With his sword in hand, he walked back slowly, put on his jeans and shirt, and fastened his body armor again.
From today on, the body armor will be separated, how do you feel that in one day, you will become a scourge to attract evil spirits?
In the past 20 years, I have never seen a vision, so why is it different today?
I walked out of the bathroom with my dagger in my hand, pondering the question.
Suddenly a flash of light crossed my mind, and I figured it out.
This kind of thing started when I was driving and when I saw the cemetery.
Gravebell No. 63 was found in the passenger seat.
Then, after returning to the manor, with a twist of his head, Brother Zhao turned into a paper man.
In the middle of the night, I was summoned by the tomb bell and went to such a strange place, and it turned into a parade of Rausch, and after that, it was the bathroom incident.
One after another, the root is very clear, and it refers directly to the No. 63 tomb bell.
It's not that I attract evil spirits myself, but that Tomb Bell No. 63 has its own function of attracting evil spirits, and I am afraid of it.
As soon as I thought of this, I secretly scolded the tomb bell for its lack of morality.
But I can only scold a few times, I don't dare to go too far, who knows where that thing is hidden? But I can be sure that it must be following me, but no one can see it.
If you provoke the tomb bell, there will definitely be no good fruit to eat.
Getting into the futon, I put the short sword in the sword box, put on body armor, and slowly fell asleep.
Sure enough, this thing had a remarkable effect on the exorcism, and I slept soundly, and there were no evil things to disturb me.
Early the next morning.
"Brother Zhao, I'm sorry, I lost my temper last night, didn't scare you, right?"
specially invited Zhao Yuhong to have breakfast together to express his apologies.
"Xiaodu, look at what you said, what did Brother Zhao do, how could he be afraid? What did you see last night, though? I think you're scared. ”
Zhao Yuhong used an omelette and put down the tableware, looking very concerned.
"It's just that I've watched too many horror movies, and when the lights shine at night, I feel ghostly when I watch you, and I'm scared, and now it's fine."
I laughed, but soon I couldn't laugh anymore, just a wry smile on my face.
Zhao Yuhong is a very experienced professional bodyguard, and when he looks at me, he is not a simple governor.
"Xiaodu, don't hide it from me, did you see something again? Why don't I accompany you to the hospital to find a doctor? I know several leading neurologists in the industry. ”
His expression became solemn.
"Brother Zhao, you don't need to see a doctor, what about me, I haven't been back from abroad for a few months, and I feel unfamiliar with local things, I want to ask Brother Zhao, do you know some strange people on the rivers and lakes?"
Put down the cutlery and look serious.
"Strange people? Xiaodu, what do you mean? ”
"It's a master who can see things, such as, Mr. Yin and Yang, out of the horse fairy, feng shui magician, shaman, fortune teller or master among Taoist priests and monks, if you know someone, can you help introduce me? Money is not a problem, I just want to find a reliable connoisseur to come here to take a look. ”
Zhao Yuhong stopped talking, looked me up and down for a while, and asked heavily: "Do you think you really hit the evil spirit?" ”
I didn't reply, but nodded solemnly.
Zhao Yuhong's brows furrowed.
He is a professional bodyguard, I don't know how many big scenes he has seen in his life, I am sure that he must know some strange people in the rivers and lakes, but observing Zhao Yuhong's usual words and deeds, I feel that he himself does not believe in these things.
Therefore, even if he knew such a strange person, he must not have much contact.
But it doesn't matter, just tell me the message and you'll find them.
After all, I'm in the name of the Jiang family, isn't it a piece of cake to find someone to do things?
The diamond black gold card given by Jiang Zhao is almost an unlimited type of money, but I am very cautious, in the past three months, I basically didn't spend much, after all, people have already paid five million in advance.
But now it's different, although Tomb Bell No. 63 gave me a short sword and a patrol token, but at best, it can only protect myself, saying that it is to catch evil ghosts and demons and so on to feed the Tomb Bell, isn't that a joke? Therefore, we had to find another way.
Yes, I don't have the ability to catch ghosts, but since there are really evil things in this world, there must be masters who hunt ghosts and drive away evil spirits, and yin and yang are the right thing.
With the diamond black and gold card in hand, there is no shortage of money, so I will invite a master to come.
As long as I am willing to spend money, I can ask the masters to help subdue the evil things, and then, I can change my hand and feed it to the tomb bell, and I can prolong my life.
With less than seven days to live, I had a gut feeling that the Tomb Bell was not lying.
Before I became an impostor, of course, I would have a detailed physical examination, my health was healthy, there was nothing wrong with it, and I really didn't understand why I only had six or seven days left to live?
But as the saying goes, the king of Hades makes people die in the third watch, who can keep people until the fifth watch?
There are many cases of sudden death in this world, and it does not mean that if you are healthy, you will live a long life.
After coming into contact with the tomb bell, my worldview has changed, and I know very well that anything evil can happen.
In other words, I am a person buried in the mud to my mouth, and death is extremely close, at this time, even a straw has to be grasped, not to mention, the tomb bell also gives hope for longevity?
For the sake of his life, the diamond black gold card also has to be used, as for whether this will anger the big people of the Jiang family? To be honest, I don't care.
The shadow of death looms over me, making me fidgety like a frightened bird.
The only way is for me to follow Tomb Bell 63 and catch evil creatures or demons and devour them in exchange for a chance to prolong my life.
Zhao Yuhong stood up and wandered left and right.
I didn't alarm him, I knew that he had never believed in these things, and it was a little embarrassing to let him help him with this kind of favor, but there was no better way, so I could only be a dead horse and a live horse doctor.
Zhao Yuhong stood still, turned his head and looked at me seriously: "Xiaodu, those people have strange personalities and strange rules, if you deal with them, you have to follow the rules and regulations, some of the rules sound very evil, if you contact them, what can you do if something happens in the future?" ”
"Brother Zhao, you just need to tell me where I am, I'll find it myself, no matter what happens in the future, it will definitely not implicate Brother Zhao, this is my own choice."
I stood up and answered earnestly.
Zhao Yuhong's eyes jumped, and after a long groan, he slowly said an address and a name.
"Brother Xie Zhao." I took it to heart and hurried to thank you.
Zhao Yuhong waved his hand and left.
I sat down, unconsciously poking my breakfast with my fork, and I didn't know where it had gone.
A few minutes later, I made a phone call.
"Doot toot!"
The phone rang a dozen times before it was picked up.
"What's the matter?" A cold female voice came from the other end of the phone, not polite at all, it seemed, very impatient.
"Sister Zhao, from now on, don't let the bodyguards follow, there is no freedom at all, I need my own space, and I have to do my own thing, I will travel around when I have nothing to do, and I will go to nearby towns, maybe, make some small investment or something."
I endured my temperament and patiently made requests.
The other side was silent for half a minute before he said, "Are you sure it's safe to do this?" Don't blame you for not reminding you, the thing my brother encountered in a foreign country was very unusual, whether it was an accident or not really has to be said. If you don't bring a bodyguard, you might be targeted. ”
"Sister Zhao, I appreciate your kindness, but this is a domestic country, and the environment is safe enough, so there is no need to make a big fuss."
"Hmph, don't hit the south wall and don't look back, it's okay, whatever you want, you can go out and play, but no matter which city you go to, you have to go back to the city hospital every three days to visit the old man, but you can't be affected, otherwise, you won't be able to eat and walk around."
There was a displeased reply, followed by the movement of the phone being hung up.
"How can that be?"
I was so angry that I almost smashed my phone, and my face was bruised, and I endured it for a long time before I could hold it.
People have to bow their heads under the eaves, and at this moment, they can only endure it.
After another half hour, I changed into casual clothes for mobility, wearing body armor underneath.
I buttoned up my cap and drove a business car out of the garage to leave the Jiang family's manor.
This time, the bodyguards stayed in the manor and did not follow, thinking about it, Jiang Zhao had already given an order, not to mention, the woman was still very quick in doing things.
Zhao Yuhong knew what I was going to do, and he told him several times uneasily.
I gave him a few perfunctory words, kicked the accelerator, and drove out along the road.
