Chapter 603: Master Hu (3)
The two villas are identical on the outside, but they are very different on the inside.
When Ming Liyun scanned the entire villa area just now, the villas he saw were all copied and pasted out of a mold, and even the tiles and wall joints of the interior decoration were exactly the same as those that could not be achieved in reality.
Villa 11 is still the decoration of the hardcover model room copied and pasted. Villa 12 retains only the hard-furnished part. The TV and sofa in the living room are gone, leaving behind a grotesque-looking altar.
The original location of the TV wall has been changed to a huge landscape painting, and the peaks covered with verdant vegetation can be faintly seen in the mist. In front of the painting stands a statue carved from a stone base and a whole piece of wood. The stone base blocked the bottom half of the painting, but Li Yun could still see the contents.
It was a deep pool of water, painted with reddish and blackened paint.
The top half of the painting is unremarkable, but the deep pool has been meticulously depicted. The circles of water ripples seem to have a breeze blowing, but when you look closely, you will find that those lines are twisted and ugly figures. The deep pool seemed to be real, and if you gazed at it for a long time, there would be a ghost crying wolf howling in your ears, as if you heard the hoarse screams of people in the pool of blood.
The sculpture in front of the painting is also very eccentric. The humanoid sculpture has the face of a beast. Li Yun couldn't tell what kind of animal it was, looking at small beasts like foxes and weasels, but after staring at them for a while, he could see the outline of a fierce beast like a lion and tiger. The beast's face has a low-brow expression, like most bodhisattva Buddhas, with a serene expression and compassion. As for the figure below the head of the sculpture, it is very common, with a flowered finger and sitting cross-legged on a stone pedestal, which is the most common form of the god.
Except for the beast's face, the sculpture was unremarkable, but Li Yun could see the red in the texture of the wood. For example, if you look closely at the deep pool on the painting, you will find that it is a pool made of blood and human souls. If you look closely at this wooden sculpture, you will also find the blood oozing from it, as if a bloody person is imprisoned in the sculpture.
However, Li Yun's gaze penetrated the wood, and he did not see any mechanism inside, let alone anyone or anything hidden inside. The inside of the solid wood has an eerie red color.
Li Yun couldn't help but think that this sculpture was not imprisoned inside, but that the whole sculpture was soaked in a pool of blood, sucking up blood, so that the red color could seep out of the surface texture.
No matter how you look at it, the two things in the middle of this altar are evil.
To be able to set up such an altar, the owner of this place cannot be a good person.
Li Yun lowered his gaze and looked at the futon in front of the sculpture.
The futon was ordinary, there were three of them, and only the one directly in front of the sculpture had traces of someone sitting on it. That's the mark of many years. The other two look relatively new.
Li Yun could imagine the appearance of Master Hu meditating on the futon for a long time. There were people on the other two futons, but they were victims like middle-aged women.
Li Yun retracted his gaze and raised his head slightly.
There is only such an altar in the living room on the first floor, and the space on the second floor has also been transformed, but the bedroom is still a bedroom, and the storage room is still a storage room. There's a lot of stuff in the storage room, like a warehouse. Most of them are miniature portraits and sculptures, and there are also some incense altars, incense offerings, beads, brocades and other items, all of which are mass-produced goods, and are not as strange as altars. Even the portraits and sculptures are just handicrafts produced on the assembly line, and the waterhole on the painting is a ball of black ink, and the texture on the sculpture is also an ordinary wood texture.
Li Yun didn't find Master Hu.
The murderous aura also dissipated.
Master Hu seems to have disappeared suddenly.
Li Yun frowned and did not give up.
He scanned the villa carefully.
He didn't see Master Hu, but he suddenly heard a little rustling sound.
Li Yun immediately looked in the direction where the voice came from.
The sound came from underfoot. Just below the statue's pedestal.
Does this villa have a basement?
I didn't find anything under this villa area before.
Li Yun was thinking like this, and as soon as his body sank, he was about to cross the floor and fall into the ground, but he suddenly stopped his movements.
He listened intently for a moment.
The noise did not reappear.
His gaze looked across the floor, and all he could see was the foundations of the buildings.
Is this also some kind of disguise?
Li Yun suddenly remembered that he glanced at the villa several times, but he didn't see a parking space. There is no parking space throughout the villa complex.
How is this possible?
Is there an underground garage?
That Master Hu blinded his vision and hid the underground space of the entire villa area, and he hid in this underground space?
That subtle noise......
Li Yun was puzzled, but continued what he had just done. It's just that he is more cautious this time. He was surrounded by the flames of his boss, and he was in a state of warmth. Properly protected, he descended slowly.
The body seems to have passed through a membrane, and it is as if it has passed through the surface of the water and entered another dimension.
The line of sight suddenly cleared.
The original foundation was gone, replaced by a basement.
Li Yun saw another altar.
It corresponds to the altar on the ground, but the altar below is more explicit.
The immortal mountain on the portrait is no longer shrouded in clouds and mist, but in a blood mist, revealing its original appearance—a mountain made of white bones. The deep pool under the mountain is no longer a terrifying but restrained pool of blood, but an abyss, in which many terrifying-looking ghosts have gushed out. The sculpture was no longer a kind eyebrow, but grinning fiercely, with flesh and blood between the teeth, and the gesture changed from a flower finger to a sharp claw, clutching the human head. The base of the stone also seemed to have cracked the outer layer of camouflaged skin, revealing a mass of flesh made of stumps and severed arms inside
Master Hu was wearing a blood-red robe, with his back to Li Yun, leaning over his body, not knowing what he was doing.
The slight noise that Li Yun heard just now was coming from in front of Master Hu.
Li Yun only felt creepy.
Not because of the altar in its true form, but because of what Master Hu is doing.
His gaze passed through Master Hu's body and saw what was in his arms.
It was a bloody monster. It had the body of a baby, but it had been fitted with a mutilated beast's head.
Master Hu's withered hands grasped the little monster's body, constantly fiddling with the strange body.
Li Yun could feel a strange energy emanating from the little monster. It was this thing that had distorted his five senses just now, tampering with what he saw, heard, and felt.
But this thing seems to have reached its limits. The beast's head was almost split from its body, with only a bit of flesh and skin remaining.
Only then did Master Hu realize that there was an extra person behind him.
He stopped what he was doing and turned his head slowly, revealing the face of a beast identical to that of the statue.
Master Hu opened his mouth, bared his fangs, and let out a beastly roar at Li Yun. He also acted like a frightened beast, hunched over and threatened Li Yun.
The little monster was thrown down by him, trampled under its claws, and its head was immediately separated.
In an instant, Li Yun felt his five senses return.
He could sense that the entire villa area had changed. What I saw and heard was like broken shards of glass, and they fell to the ground one after another, revealing the true appearance behind the glass.
Master Hu rushed towards Li Yun with the sound of the glass shards falling.
He bared his teeth and claws, and there was no special discipline for his actions.
Li Yun raised his hand, and his palm was hot, but the moment he came into contact with Master Hu, he dispersed the boss's flames.
He grabbed Master Hu's outstretched hand, and somewhat unskillfully imitated the dashing movements in his memory, pressing Master Hu to the ground.
His action of subduing Master Hu was not standard, but relying on the strength of an adult male, he still pressed Master Hu to the point that he could only writhe on the ground.
Li Yun was embarrassed, but he still raised his head
His gaze crossed the floor and looked up, but instead of looking at the first floor of Villa 12 where he was, he was looking at Villa 11 next door.
The phoenix's high-pitched chirp pierced through the space and rushed towards Villa Eleven with the power of flames.
Whew-
In an instant, Li Yun's vision was swept away by raging fire.
When the flames dissipated, the scene that Li Yun saw changed again.
"Something! Yes! Master Hu! Master Hu! There are ghosts! Master Hu save me! ”
The woman's shrill screams echoed through the basement.
Li Yun lowered his eyes and looked at the person he had suppressed.
It was no longer a monster with a red robe and a beast head, but the middle-aged woman he had seen in the hospital.
The middle-aged woman was clasped by Li Yun's arms and pressed to the ground. She was like a turtle that had been turned over, struggling hard, but she couldn't get up. She craned her neck and raised her head, but she couldn't twist her head one hundred and eighty degrees to see Li Yun pressing on her back. Besides, Li Yun didn't have an ID card now, so she really turned her head around, and she couldn't see Li Yun.
The middle-aged woman panicked and shouted Master Hu's name.
Li Yun only calmed her emotions a little, and then focused on her surroundings.
The scenery that was originally covered with a broken layer of glass was burned by the phoenix flames, revealing its true appearance.
At that moment, Li Yun saw the house number of the villa that had been burned.
The villa he was in now was the eleventh number reported by the middle-aged woman, not the twelfth he had seen earlier.
The first floor of the villa has been renovated, retaining the hard decoration after the fine decoration of the developer, and only the living room has been changed. Portraits, altars, and futons, these things are there, but they are not the strange portraits, strange altars, and the three simple futons that Li Yun saw just now.
On the portrait, you can not only see the green mountains in the sea of clouds, mountains and fog, but also see a round of dawn. At the bottom of the picture is not a pool of blood or an abyss, but an ordinary waterfall and pool. But that part is still carefully outlined, and you can see the colorful koi fish in the water of the pool - although it is strange to have koi in the pool deep in the mountains and old forests.
The statue is still a human body, but the head is a normal weasel. The human part is still the same, except that there is a branch in the hand of the flower, and a white lotus flower blooms on the branch. It looks natural and extremely mysterious, but Li Yun's "eyes" are excellent, and he found the abnormal glue traces at the connection at a glance. The stone pedestal below is carved with an unusual lotus pattern. The sun on the portrait was right behind the statue's head, as if it had cast a divine halo on the statue.
Li Yun's face was strange. Because he was behind the portrait, and it was exactly where the sun was, and he saw the light bulb embedded in the wall. It can be imagined that when the lights are turned on, the portrait, the sculpture, and Master Hu sitting on the futon in front of him are connected in a line, what kind of picture full of "artistic conception" should be.
Not only that, but there were other mechanisms behind the wall where the portrait was hidden. Li Yun subconsciously used his perception to "explore", and found that those mechanisms had a sound system for playback, a dry ice device, a small fan, and an aromatherapy candlestick......
Although the portraits and sculptures were different, and the hidden mechanisms on the walls were discovered, Li Yun felt that the most changed among these things were the futons.
The original futon was simple and simple, but now it is splendid and exquisite, and it looks like the price has increased hundreds of times. Although it is a futon, it should be very comfortable and fit well with the original hard decoration style of this villa.
Because they were too abrupt, these futons became the things that most grabbed Li Yun's sight. Even if you can't see the traps hidden in the walls, the presence of these glaring futons is a loud sign that there is something strange about this place.
Li Yun's gaze was projected to the second floor again. The changes on the second floor are smaller. The portraits and statues in the storage room have changed, but other than that, they are no different from what Li Yun had seen before.
Li Yun withdrew his gaze and looked at the basement he was in.
There is no other altar in the basement. The basement has been transformed into a reception room. The furnishings are antique.
Just one meter away from Li Yun, a group of mahogany furniture was placed, and a complete set of tea sets were placed on the coffee table. Two teacups, both steaming.
In the next room is the study. A circle of bookcases and a hundred treasure pavilions are like decorations for the nouveau riche. There is a money counter on the desk, and there are many traces of use. There is also a huge premium safe in the room. Li Yun could see the pile of cash inside, as well as the account book.
Li Yun swept the Villa 12 next door again. Villa 12 is completely different from this one, it is completely homely, and everything from the furniture to the floor and walls has been renovated. Traces of life are everywhere.
It was the position where Li Yun had just rushed through with the flames, which was a little unusual, and he could see a small altar that was incompatible with the environment there.
Now, the offering table overturned, the incense burner fell to the ground, and a set of clothes fell to the ground, covering the body of a weasel.
The truth of everything seems to be coming out.
Li Yun looked down at the middle-aged woman he was holding down.
She screamed in horror, but there didn't seem to be much fear when she looked at the strength of her struggle.
Li Yun's pacification worked, but more importantly, she had Master Hu in her heart.
Li Yun slowly let go of his hand.
The middle-aged woman was still struggling instinctively, and when she shook her arms like this, she only felt a lightness on her body, and at the same time, because of the hard shaking just now, she pulled her muscles. She screamed in pain.
Li Yun stood up and looked in the direction of the hospital.
Li Yun easily located Chi Hongfei. After all, I have been watching him for so long, and I already know him very well.
Chi Hongfei was resting in the doctor's office. There were other of his colleagues in the office. They were talking about the patient who had just been rescued by gastric lavage, that is, the father of a middle-aged woman.
The man has been saved, but he will have to watch for a while.
They contacted the old man's son, and the other party had already rushed over.
Li Yun looked at the middle-aged woman again.
The middle-aged woman covered her arms, called Master Hu a few more times, strode out of the conference room, and looked for it in other rooms. However, the doors to the other rooms are locked.
She came back and got her things, took out her mobile phone, and called Master Hu.
The phone rang in the villa next door, and the middle-aged woman naturally couldn't hear it.
She couldn't hear Li Yun's call either, even though Li Yun was by her side right now.
"White impermanence." Li Yun was very surprised that the phone was dialed smoothly, and after shouting, he forgot what to say for a while.
"Hmm." Bai Wuchang replied calmly.
Li Yun came back to his senses and recounted what had happened to him just now.
