Chapter 101: Weird old man
Since he couldn't push it, Li Fan didn't dwell on this issue, turned around and walked into the room next to him to look for clues.
The rooms on both sides were carefully searched, but no useful clues were found.
However, from the furnishings, it can be roughly seen that this should be the place where the owner lives.
Li Fan's brows furrowed tightly, feeling that things were a little difficult to do.
According to his speculation, in order to complete the hidden mission, the coffin must be opened. If you guessed correctly, the princess should be in the coffin.
But now the coffin can't be opened, and obviously there is still a link in the middle.
But what is this link?
A vicious princess?
Skeleton Guards?
The second point can be ruled out, the skeleton guards have all been eliminated.
Could it be the first one, you need to destroy the vicious imperial concubine first, and then get some kind of prop before you can open the coffin?
Li Fan scratched his head, feeling that the root of his brain hurt.
The hidden task is too difficult, there are no hints at all, and it is too brain-consuming to rely entirely on groping.
If he could, Li Fan really didn't want to continue, it was too torturous, it was more difficult than solving the Olympiad math problem.
But he had no choice, if he couldn't find a useful clue, he would be trapped in this ruin, and the only way that awaited him was a dead end.
In the past two days, all the drinking water in the relic backpack has been drunk, the bread is gone, and if it weren't for the dozens of buns in the system, he would be hungry by now.
Li Fan came to the coffin again, since the hidden mission is about the princess, then the clue must be on the coffin.
Walking around the coffin, Li Fan's eyes suddenly lit up, and he saw a yellow talisman attached to the side of the coffin.
"This isβ" He reached for the talisman and tried to tear it off.
Suddenly, his hand stiffened and stopped in mid-air.
His back was cold, and he felt someone snooping on him.
An unspeakable fear grew in the bottom of his heart, Li Fan's scalp was numb, he turned his head suddenly, and shouted, "What person!" β
Suddenly, a black yin qi rose in the room, and the wind was fierce, making the window and door frames rattle.
Li Fan put his hand in front of his eyes, blocking this yin wind, and at the same time secretly vigilant, as long as there was an abnormality, he would shoot mercilessly.
This yin wind came suddenly, and it went quickly.
When the room returned to normal, an old man's voice came from the room on the left, "Young man, tear off the talisman so you can complete the task." β
Li Fan's face changed drastically, and he hurriedly looked towards the source of the voice.
I saw an old man standing at the door of the room on the left, wearing a gray robe with a wrinkled face, giving people the feeling that he was about to run out of oil.
"Who are you, human or ghost!" Li Fan's voice trembled slightly, and he couldn't help but tremble.
Damn, how did this bad old man come about? He had clearly inspected the room just now, and there was not even a ghost except for some furniture, let alone this bad old man.
"Young man, don't care if I'm a human or a ghost, I won't harm you." The old man looked at Li Fan and followed the temptation, "You quickly tear up the yellow paper talisman, so that you can complete the task." β
Li Fan looked at the other party and saw that he had been standing at the door, but he didn't dare to come over, and his mind was spinning rapidly.
This bad old man suddenly appeared, and asked me to tear up the yellow paper talisman, his purpose, good and evil, it is difficult to distinguish.
So, should we do what he says?
Soon, Li Fan made a decision.
The answer is no.
If nothing else, this bad old man appeared too strangely, and the timing was not quite right.
He didn't show up sooner or later, just when I stopped and tore off the rune paper.
Li Fan also thought of a detail. In fact, the other party will not appear, it is when he feels the other party's peeping and then shouts out the other party.
In other words, this old man has actually been here all along, and has been secretly spying on everything in the room, but he is well hidden and has not been discovered.
Just when he was about to tear off the rune paper, the other party was very excited, so he accidentally let himself feel that he was peeping.
In this way, the other party is eager to tear up this talisman himself!
There's something wrong with this talisman!
Thinking through the details, Li Fan's scalp was slightly numb, and he took a step back quietly, with a vigilant expression, "It's okay if you want me to tear off this talisman, but you have to tell me, who are you, a human or a ghost?" β
The old man took two steps forward, but he couldn't get out of the confines of the room, as if something invisible was blocking him.
An anxious look appeared on his wrinkled face, "You tear off the talisman first, everything is easy to say, and then I will tell you everything." β
Li Fan saw that the other party couldn't get out, so he avoided the important and asked him to tear off the yellow paper talisman, which was a little relieved.
He sneered, "Since you don't say it, then you can listen to it and see if I guess correctly." β
The wrinkled old man was stunned for a moment, and his face became gloomy.
"What do you mean, young man?"
Li Fan spread his hands, "Since this is the case, then I won't pretend, I have a showdown." β
The old man's face was completely gloomy, but he didn't speak, glaring at the young man in front of him viciously.
Li Fan sneered, "If my guess is right, it's not the princess lying in this coffin, it's you, old fellow." β
The panic in the old man's eyes flickered, and then he became calm, "Young man, I don't know what you're talking about. β
Li Fan ignored the old man's words and continued, "It doesn't matter if you admit it or not, I'll find out." Now, not to be accompanied. β
After saying that, he didn't bother with this old guy, and went straight out of the main hall.
"Come back, come back to this seat!" The main hall is cloudy and windy.
Li Fan didn't bother to pay attention to the old man's impotent rage, turned around and walked into the wing room on the left.
He remembered the patrol route of the Bone Skeleton, and the left and right wings had been inside, and the time spent in it was no shorter than the main hall. From this, it can be inferred that there must be clues in the left and right wings.
As soon as he walked into the left wing, Li Fan's eyes shrank.
I saw another coffin in front of me, but this coffin was not made of stone, but made of century-old sunken wood, painted with bright red lacquer.
"I'm Nima!" Seeing this coffin, Li Fan couldn't help but complain.
As long as a person sees a coffin, a shudder rises in his heart.
This feeling is really not good.
Li Fan stubbornly walked to the red coffin, circled around, and found that the coffin nails were not hit, and the coffin lid was just placed on it.
"It seems that the princess should be in here." Li Fan pondered and rubbed his chin.
Although he thought so, he did not push open the coffin of the vermilion lacquer, but searched for it in the room.
Thinking back to the bad old man who appeared out of thin air, he always felt that things were not so simple, and he would not act rashly until he figured out what was going on.
