Chapter 64: The Unreachable
With Adong's reminder, I looked down the corridor again.
Compared to the courtyard of the hall on the first floor, where people pass by from time to time, this floor is extremely deserted, quiet, and there is no movement at all.
The sound of a needle falling on the ground is clearly audible.
The miserable white light shone all around, as if all sins were hidden, and it was inexplicably chilling.
I forcibly suppressed the restlessness in my heart, took a deep breath, and turned my eyes back and forth several times, eager to see a hole in the wall directly!
However, I didn't notice anything unusual other than the low temperature of the surrounding air.
"Master, except for being a little cold, don't talk about evil ghosts, I haven't even seen a shadow."
I said it truthfully.
Everyone here is a familiar person, who knows my abilities and knows that I can't lie.
In an instant, there was a dead silence in the air.
Just when things were at an impasse, a colder wind suddenly blew at the end of the corridor, like the breath of the cold moon, freezing the depths of people's souls trembling!
Ah Dong scolded directly.
", this is no longer a problem of the shade, just this evil wind just now, at least it has to go into winter."
The words are not rough.
Uncle Ming didn't even open his mouth to reprimand Ah Dong, which already explained everything.
He glanced at the source of the cold wind and beckoned to a few of us, "Let's go, go over there and see what's there, my gut tells me there must be something wrong over there." ”
After saying that, Uncle Ming had already taken the first step.
A few of us followed him, a little closer to the end of the hallway, as the temperature grew colder and colder, and our legs shivered with cold.
In total, it was more than 100 meters away, and we arrived in a few minutes, and we also noticed that there was a stairwell here, and the space was quite large.
That's where the wind came from.
Those who don't know are fearless.
Ah Dong poked his head out boldly, glanced into the stairwell, and immediately retracted his neck in the next second, and kept swallowing saliva in fear.
"Master, you guessed it, something is really wrong in the stairwell, I see a small area of the building inside being circled."
"There are still some shadowy black shadows on the ground, it may be the ownerless lonely soul tablet."
"Seriously, things have come to this point, it's all here, why don't we go in and have a look? Otherwise, I won't be able to explain when I go back to see Uncle Hu. ”
I think exactly the same as Adong.
It's hard to come to the hotel, at least find out the basics......
If you turn around and leave because you are afraid, wouldn't it be a trip for nothing?
But among the four people present, Ah Dong and I happened to be the least vocal, and it was the master and Uncle Ming who made the decision.
So we both muttered a few words, and then we both remained silent, waiting for the next command.
At this time, the master was the first to speak, breaking the silence.
"Let's go in and take a look, there are four of us in total, even if there are really lonely souls and wild ghosts inside, it is impossible to kill us all at once."
"Let's go."
Uncle Ming nodded in agreement.
And just like that, the four of us stepped into the threshold in front of us, right next to each other.
The master held a flashlight, and the light inadvertently swept across the stairwell.
It was only a blink of an eye, but I could see what was going on in that small space!
There was a mahogany board in the innermost place against the wall, and there was no writing on it, but in a trance, I saw a black gas lingering on it.
There is a small incense burner next to it, which is the most ordinary style, and it is piled with burning incense ashes.
There are also some fresh fruits on the steps, which look like they have just been enshrined, without any traces of corruption, and even a faint fruity aroma.
The most important thing is that there are traces of some strokes on the wall.
Because the master's flashlight shook so fast, I didn't have time to see what was drawn on it.
"Master, look in that direction again."
I tugged at the master's clothes.
The pillar of light swept over again, staying in the corner, and we finally got a good look at what was going on.
There are a lot of wooden boards, incense burners, and fresh fruits, and as for the traces carved on the white walls, they are messy, and they seem to me to be like ghost drawings, and I can't read them at all.
But for the sake of prudence, I still asked Uncle Ming.
"Can you see the traces?"
"I'll take a closer look."
As he spoke, Uncle Ming took two steps forward, getting closer, ready to take a closer look at the traces on the wall.
But at this juncture, the soles of his feet suddenly slipped, and he was about to fall down the stairs and roll down the stairs, saying that it was too late, and I rushed forward and dragged the man with a lunge.
Fortunately, I was fast enough, and Uncle Ming was spared.
He regained his footing and looked at me with a smile, "Thank you, otherwise at this height, if I roll down the stairs without breaking a bone, I will have to fall to the ground and not get out of bed for a few days." ”
"I should do it."
I smiled and didn't say much.
Uncle Ming thought that the slipping foot just now was just an accident, and after adjusting his condition, he walked forward again.
But what I never expected was that it was just the beginning!
For the rest of the day, no matter how much he tried to walk towards the wall, there would be a small accident along the way.
Either the foot slipped, or the head almost hit the railing, or the whole person seemed to be immobilized and couldn't move, and so on.
At first, everyone didn't pay attention to it, but later they encountered more and realized the seriousness of the problem.
We took a few steps back at the same time, back to the staircase compartment.
Although I can't see the ownerless lonely soul tablet here, I can still feel the cold breath.
"Uncle Ming, based on your performance just now, I feel that something is preventing you from seeing everything clearly, could it be the ghost enshrined there?"
I asked, puzzled.
But after hearing my question, Uncle Ming just shook his head helplessly, after all, his brain was like a ball of yarn, and he didn't have a clue.
After a while, he finally had a new movement, and took out three yellow talismans from his arms and placed them side by side on the ground.
As soon as the upper lip touched the lower lip, he whispered a spell, and the yellow charm burned, and a few faint clusters of fire ignited in the slightly dim light, as if it would be blown out at any moment.
"Go!"
Uncle Ming commanded sharply, and at the same time, the peachwood sword in his hand stabbed into the air.
The firelight jumped with it, and I was about to jump over the threshold and start descending the stairs!
But the orange flame was extinguished as soon as it touched the stairs, as if someone had suddenly poured a basin of cold water, and disappeared without a trace in an instant.
Uncle Ming swung the peachwood sword again, and the ground was quiet, and no fire was ignited again.
His face was getting worse and worse, and his movements were becoming more and more difficult.
Suddenly, Uncle Ming's eyes closed suddenly, and his body fell to the ground like a mountain!
