Chapter 604: Millennium
At first glance, Master Hu's place of work is a set made up by a liar. If Li Yun hadn't been blinded by his five senses, he had rushed directly to this villa at that time, and when he saw these arrangements, he would probably think that he had found the wrong place, or that he had encountered some kind of coincidence.
Of course, he saw the paranormal phenomenon with his own eyes in the hospital, and this cannot be denied. Therefore, he will still investigate this villa and investigate that Master Hu, but with Master Hu's ability, distort his five senses in another way, maybe the chances of success will be greater.
Master Hu chose to deal with him head-on, directly exposing the fact that he was a cultivator—oh, no, it was a monster who had cultivated to become a refinement.
Li Yun ignored the middle-aged woman for the time being, her wings flapped, and her ghost-like body landed next to Master Hu's corpse.
He didn't have to touch it to see the weasel carcass under his clothes. Still, he lifted the layer of clothing and got a more direct look at the dead weasel.
"It's really dead. It is...... I can't tell if it's a real weasel, or a substitute ghost who was brought by Master Hu. Li Yun said to Bai Wuchang on the other end of the phone.
This is also the reason why he hurriedly called Bai Wuchang.
He was deceived twice by Master Hu, so it is possible that he will be deceived a third time.
The villa complex copied and pasted is fake, the weird and weird altar is fake, the beast-headed human monster in the red robe is fake, and the weasel corpse seen now is also likely to be fake.
At this time, he had already figured out the purpose of Master Hu's villa complex.
The other party delayed the time, just waiting for the middle-aged woman to arrive, so as to arrange another layer of illusion to induce Li Yun to kill the middle-aged woman.
broke the killing ring, and Li Yun was equivalent to getting on the thief ship. If he doesn't want to be hunted down by black and white impermanence, then it is very likely that he will choose to be in cahoots with Master Hu.
Li Yun certainly wouldn't do that. But the other party will speculate like this, and therefore set up a plan, which makes perfect sense.
Li Yun asked, "If I kill that woman, I will also be dealt with by you, right?" ”
"Yes." Bai Wuchang replied succinctly.
"What about Master Hu?"
"Yes."
Li Yun pondered secretly.
In this way, it really becomes a grasshopper on a boat. The other party may have some means to avoid the punishment of black and white impermanence. When the time comes, this will be a condition......
Li Yun has not forgotten the boss behind him.
The other party took great pains to design, it was impossible for a little ghost like himself. Instead, it is aimed at the boss's big goal......
In this way, he chose to expose himself from the beginning, deal with Li Yun head-on, and design Li Yun to kill people......
He witnessed the middle-aged woman's actions in the hospital, was this the beginning of this plan?
"I can't be sure if this corpse is real or not. I'll send you the address. Li Yun returned to the point.
He already had a bad premonition.
Master Hu has calculated so much, could he really be killed so easily?
What's more, the boss's flames can burn everything, how can such an obvious corpse be left?
As soon as Li Yun sent the address out, he heard the doorbell ringing.
Li Yun was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously thought of the middle-aged woman.
Did the middle-aged woman find this side because she couldn't get through on the phone?
As he was thinking this, he heard the door open again.
Squeak-squeak-squeak-squeaw-squea
The sound of the door opening was loud and hoarse, as if it were the broken voice of an elderly man.
Da, da, da......
The footsteps are clear and echoy, but there is a strange sense of distance. The person seemed to take three or four meters in a step, and in an instant, he had already reached the stairs from the door, and took another step, from the stairs to the study on the second floor, and stood at the door of the study.
Knock knock.
A polite knock sounded at the door.
Li Yun looked strange, but he still went to open the door.
Outside the door was Black Impermanence in a black suit, and Bai Impermanence who followed him with an expressionless face like a spirit behind him.
Hei Wuchang smiled at Li Yun and bowed his chin to sign, as if he had completely changed into a person and a polite gentleman.
Li Yun was very embarrassed, made way for Hei Wuchang, and gave Bai Wuchang a look.
Bai impermanence does not squint.
When Hei Wuchang entered the room, he circled around the corpses and clothes on the ground, and then lowered his head to look at the overturned offering table.
His steps were so cautious that he didn't even touch a trace of incense ash.
After looking around, he squatted down, took out his gloves from his pocket, and put them on carefully, before he put the clothes that Li Yun had lifted back on the weasel corpse.
With this done, he straightened up, took off his gloves, patiently folded them, and stuffed them back into his pockets.
Li Yun was speechless.
"Let's go next door." Hei Wuchang said with a smile.
His smile was so gentle and kind that Li Yun shuddered.
Li Yun was silent, waiting for Hei Wuchang to walk out of the room first, and then followed behind him with Bai Wuchang.
He wanted to talk to Bai Wuchang, but Hei Wuchang's upright back was right in front of him, and it was really inconvenient to whisper.
Three inhuman creatures came to the villa next door.
Black Impermanence still rang the doorbell.
This startled Li Yun.
He hurriedly inspected the entire villa and found that the middle-aged woman was looking for someone in the living room.
The middle-aged woman clearly heard the doorbell. She stopped looking for someone everywhere and looked in the direction of the gate.
At this time, Li Yun was even more anxious.
"Black Impermanence senior, this ......" Li Yun said.
Black Impermanence rang the doorbell again slowly.
Li Yun had no way to stop the black impermanence. He had no choice but to shut up, wondering if there was something deep in this that he didn't know.
The middle-aged woman called "Who" and had already walked to the door.
Li Yun could see the middle-aged woman approaching the display screen at the door. Of course, there will be no sound of Li Yun and black and white impermanence on the display.
The middle-aged woman hesitated.
Black Impermanence rang the doorbell for the third time.
Although the middle-aged woman was suspicious, she still opened the door.
One person and three ghosts took a look, but the middle-aged woman still couldn't see the three ghosts outside. She probed her head and took a few steps out, trying to find the troublemaker who rang the doorbell.
Hei Wuchang passed her directly and entered the villa.
Bai Wuchang followed in.
Li Yun had no choice but to catch up with them.
As soon as he stepped into the villa, he felt the door behind him close automatically.
The middle-aged woman was shut out, dumbfounded. She tried to open the door, but naturally failed.
The middle-aged woman was helpless at the door. After two seconds, she seemed to come back to her senses, shivered, and looked at the villa cautiously.
Black Impermanence had already walked to the living room at this time, standing in front of the sculpture.
"So, okay?" Li Yun was very hesitant, "She was originally superstitious, and now she is still ......"
"Hmm. She is, of course, superstitious. Isn't this just to screen out people like her? Hei Wuchang spoke, and his tone changed back to his usual appearance, "Furnishings, organs, unsuitable seats...... Living-style kitchen, toilet, marble floors and walled balconies...... Obvious vulnerabilities ......"
Li Yun could understand the unfinished words of Hei Impermanence.
This is the case with many scams. The stupid operation of the fraudsters is to sift out the right prey with simple thinking and no logic.
If someone steps into this place and sees the sense of disobedience here at a glance like Li Yun and the others, they will definitely not be deceived.
Although, it is a true cultivator who deceives him, and he will use real supernatural means. But his purpose is for money, and the cost of using some mass-produced props of industrial civilization must be lower than using those supernatural means. From the perspective of efficiency, it is only natural that he will choose the means of deception instead of the spell he used to deceive Li Yun.
Li Yun thought of this, and remembered his guess just now, so he revised his inference.
The other party's purpose is not necessarily for money. If the other party is going to the boss early in the morning, then screening out a blind and superstitious person is more conducive to him setting a trap.
Hei Wuchang suddenly raised his hand, and he easily pushed the statue aside in the air. He looked at the hanging painting blocked by the statue, stared at it for a while, and then turned one hundred and eighty degrees, facing Li Yun.
Li Yun was startled.
"You say you see visions. What do you see? Black Impermanence asked.
Li Yun just described on the phone, which was relatively brief, and did not describe the painting, the statue, and the monster in detail. Now that Hei Wuchang asked, he recounted the whole thing in its original form, and carefully described the three portraits and sculptures he saw from head to toe.
Hei Wuchang listened patiently, his expression unchanged.
On the contrary, Bai Wuchang, who had not changed much on the side, frowned slightly when he heard the blood pool, the bone mountain, and the abyss. The soft white light on his body shook slightly because of the change in mood.
Li Yun noticed this, but he didn't stop narrating, and when the flames finally went away at the strange feeling, he had a feeling of fear.
If he had misjudged at the time, it would not have been the corpse of a dead weasel in the villa next door, but another living person......
Immediately, Li Yun felt that such a thing was unlikely to happen. It's not that it's impossible for the other party to come up with a plan in a plan, like a nesting doll, setting up N-layer illusions, and each layer of illusion is planted with living people as traps. But at that moment, Li Yun did feel something.
The indescribable feeling was not the murderous intent he felt the first time he felt as a decoy, nor the second time he noticed the sound of a rustle, but a strange ......
“…… The smell of burning paper money ......," Li Yun muttered.
It's like the smell he found in the hospital.
That's the smell of the dead.
"There is a way to escape the impermanence of black and white, which is to cover up one's own existence with the smell of death." Black Impermanence said.
Li Yun was stunned.
"Dead corpses, mourning, tomb soil, paper money, incense and candles......" Black Impermanence took a step every time he said a word, and after saying five words, he had already opened the distance between himself and the hanging painting, and turned around, facing the hanging painting, slightly tilted his head, and looked at the sun on the painting.
He activated the traps on the walls, and the lights came on, like sunlight; Dry ice blows, like a sea of fog; There was also music and incense echoing through the house. The small fan blows the animation axis, and the pool water at the bottom of the picture is sparkling, which is the effect of colorful koi fish shaking out of the light spots.
"I haven't seen this in years." Black impermanence fell to the end like a sigh.
The hanging painting shook like the dust on the paper, and it seemed to have faded away the camouflage of the upper layer.
The paper, as thin as a cicada's wings, fell like a snowflake, revealing the picture underneath.
The sun is gone, but the green hills are still there; The koi fish flipped its belly, and the blood smeared in the water.
The picture has been peeled back again.
The green plants on the mountain withered, the soil was sandy, and the wind blew away, revealing white bones. The blood-colored pool of water also evaporated, and countless evil spirits crawled out of the bottom of the abyss.
Li Yun snorted.
He smelled the smell of burning paper money.
The smell of the aromatherapy has changed somewhere. The same has changed in the sound of music. The tone that had been ethereal and sacred became mourning, and then distorted again, into the wailing and screaming of a terrible ghost. At the same time, the smell of burning paper money was replaced by a rotten, fishy smell.
Li Yun couldn't help but take a step back.
He wanted to say something, but before he could open his mouth, he heard the woman's scream.
The scream was familiar.
Li Yun turned his head to look and saw that there was an extra person on the balcony.
The middle-aged woman came around to the balcony at some point. The balcony didn't have any curtains. The floor-to-ceiling windows reflect the woman's figure, allowing the woman to see the changes in the painting.
She screamed, rolled her eyes, went limp, and fell to the ground.
All the changes disappeared at once.
Black Impermanence snorted twice, dissipating the terrifying atmosphere.
He put his hands in his pockets, triumphant, and turned into an indecent old look again, and commented on the woman who fainted, "Ye Gong is a good dragon." When I saw the real guy, I passed out. ”
Li Yun didn't think he could say the same.
This middle-aged woman is already superstitious, and the black impermanence still scares her so much, of course she has to faint. Change to someone who is not superstitious, such as Cao Yunfan, who has seen a ghost, and is regarded as a holographic projection.
"So, senior, is what you said before true?" Li Yun pulled back the topic.
Hei Wuchang said leisurely: "Really. ”
Li Yun knew that of course things were not as simple as Hei Wuchang said. If it were that simple, then all the evil spirits would be able to get some paper money and incense candles, stuff themselves into the tomb, and escape the pursuit of black and white impermanence. Black and white impermanence doesn't have to work anymore.
Bai Wuchang suddenly interjected: "Shouldn't that person be gone?" ”
Li Yun looked at Bai Wuchang in confusion.
Bai Wuchang's expression was solemn.
"yes. But who knows what he left behind in that long time. Maybe there is a martial arts cheat hidden under the cliff and someone has picked it up. Black impermanence is still the same tone.
"Black senior, this is a big deal." Bai Wuchang said seriously.
"yes, it's a big deal." Black Impermanence loosened his bow tie and unbuttoned the collar that was buttoned to the top, "So it's not your turn to intervene." ”
His tone remained the same, but his momentum had changed, and he didn't do the complicated ritual he appeared in, so he disappeared on the spot.
Li Yun and Bai Wuchang were left in the villa.
Li Yun was confused and looked at Bai Wuchang.
Bai Wuchang lowered his eyes and was silent, and his heart did not fluctuate.
"Bai impermanence, that ......" Li Yun had no choice but to speak.
Bai Wuchang raised his eyes, glanced at Li Yun, and waved his sleeves to restore the sculpture that had been pushed away by Hei Wuchang to its original position.
"Leave this matter to the black seniors." Bai Wuchang said.
"What the hell is going on?" Li Yun asked.
"The black senpai once hunted down an evil ghost. The evil ghost used evil magic to prolong his life before his death, and after his death, he was sometimes reborn by the method of seizing and rebirth, and sometimes acted in the form of a ghost, and changed his appearance many times...... At that time, the underworld was still there, and there were many victims crying in the Yama Temple. Bai Wuchang shook his head, "It took a long time for the underworld to determine that the murderer was the same person. And by the time the black senior organized the manpower to kill him completely, a thousand years had passed, and the heavens and earths were long gone......"
Bai Wuchang looked at the hanging painting, "There have been people in Xudu who have painted to allude to this matter, just like just now, green mountains, bone mountains, blood pools, and abysses...... I heard that the black seniors used to hang this painting at home, and I often reminded myself. It was only after the demon was killed that the painting was burned. He looked at Li Yun again, "And the evil ghost's means of escaping the underworld soldiers and the impermanence of black and white is what the black predecessor just said, using the breath of the dead as a cover. ”
