Chapter 106: The Death Knell

I looked the room up and down, "Don't sleep in the first half of the night, and when it's over, you wash your hair with cool water."

Although Liu Hao looked puzzled, he still nodded vigorously.

Seeing him go upstairs, Ji Canghai leaned into my ear again.

"Teach me again."

I couldn't help but smile, he was really willing to learn.

If any master accepts him, he will really find a treasure.

I looked upstairs and downstairs and whispered, "You're in the light, and that thing is in the dark."

"We can't be stupid to look for it, we have to learn how to fish."

"Got it, got it."

At eight o'clock in the evening, Ji Canghai yawned vigorously.

I glanced back at him, and the image of him in his head suddenly came to mind.

, it's so exciting.

"Big brother."

I almost pleaded, "You put the kitchen knife in your arms and go to sleep." I'm so scared of you!"

Ji Canghai laughed a few times: "Don't worry, don't worry."

Actually, the method I told Liu Hao was the way to see the ghost.

I just want him to do the opposite, to lure the things out of the house.

I know it's not going to be a peaceful night, and I don't sleep too hard.

"Bell Bell ......"

In the middle of the night, a melodious pendulum bell rang.

I was so smart that I immediately opened my eyes and sat up.

In the faint moonlight, I could barely make out the pendulum clock on the wall, the hour hand pointing to twelve.

"That's not right."

Ji Canghai didn't know when he woke up, so he sat behind me and muttered.

I patted my chest and looked at him, "Big brother! People are scary, scared to death!"

He didn't think so, and rubbed his eyes: "You're a Taoist priest, and you're scared?"

"Nonsense! I'm human! If it's a human being, you'll be afraid!"

Ji Canghai laughed dryly: "Pay attention next time."

"You just said something wrong, what's wrong?"

He immediately regained his normal color and looked at the wall clock.

"This bell has never rang before, only just now."

"And it wasn't twelve, it was eleven."

His words made me fall into memory.

From the moment I entered, I didn't even notice the wall clock on the wall, let alone listen to it.

"How can you count so clearly?"

Seeing that I questioned, Ji Canghai smiled a little proudly.

"You forget, I'm playing in a cage and I'm very sensitive to bells and the like."

"I'm sure, I heard you right."

Ji Canghai's determination reassures me.

"Pull, pull......"

At this moment, footsteps suddenly sounded on the second floor.

The sound sounded like slippers rubbing against the ground!

"It's coming!"

Ji Canghai immediately took out a kitchen knife, lay on the staircase, and asked in a low voice.

"Why don't I go upstairs and have a look?"

I hesitated, "No hurry."

The voice from upstairs was close to my ears, and I calmly analyzed it and then spoke.

"You keep it for me."

With that, I moved a chair from the side, and I took off the wall clock directly.

There is a folk magic called the death knell.

The bell will ring on time, and it will be 11 times.

Write down the number 11 and it's two stick-like things.

This is in Fangshu, which is called Yin Yang Road.

There are many people who deliberately avoid the 11th floor when buying a house, and this is the reason.

The structure of the wall clock is actually not complicated, and you can see the internal structure by removing the shell.

The light was so dim that I took out my flashlight and shook it inside, gasping for air.

Behind this clock, the position that was supposed to be the hammer of the clock was replaced with half a finger bone!

The bone is not big, and it should be a little finger to the eye.

The phalanges were thin and black-brown, and at the moment they were playing the bell strings.

This thing is not the same as the death knell I've seen, but it's definitely not a good thing!

Or rather, it's quite possible that it's the same thing.

"How's it going?"

Ji Canghai held a kitchen knife, lay on the staircase, and asked a little nervously.

I looked down at the clock and whispered.

"I guess, Liu Hao is checking the numbers now."

Ji Canghai turned his head: "Huh? Check the numbers?"

"Yes, it should be 9, or 7."

"? Are you so godly?"

I took out the talisman from my backpack and held it in my hand.

"Let's go up and have a look."
