Chapter Ninety-Three: The Ancient Mansion of the Republic of China
The eerie village is old and deserted, there is no trace of human life, all the buildings are dilapidated, and the walls are full of cracks, as if they could collapse at any moment.
Furthermore.
The environment in the village is extremely dark, giving people an extremely eerie feeling, as if it is a ghost village.
A winding dirt path stretches from the village to the Luber Highway, and Li Hui, who had just gotten off the supernatural bus, stepped directly on this dirt road.
Soon after he got off the bus, the bus restarted, and disappeared from Li Hui's eyes in the blink of an eye.
This way.
There were a total of 6 ghosts who got out of the car with him, and all of them were forced to get off except for the middle-aged woman with a slightly illusory body.
Li Hui's ghost domain enveloped them, and got out of the car with all the ghosts.
I didn't do anything to these ghosts before because I was afraid that it would affect the trajectory of the supernatural bus, but now that I have arrived at my destination, I naturally don't have this concern.
It is worth mentioning.
These ghosts didn't even need Li Hui's action, because they had been in his ghost domain from the beginning, and seventy percent of the ghost paintings had eroded the past, making these ghosts a part of their own ghost domain.
But there are exceptions.
For example, the illusory ghost, dressed in white, disappeared the moment he got out of the car, it looked very abrupt, and disappeared directly in front of Li Hui's eyes, and even his ghost domain could not find the trace of the ghost.
However, although Li Hui was a little surprised, he didn't think much about it, in his opinion, the ghost got off at this stop, obviously the destination was also the abandoned village, since this was the case, it meant that it had not really escaped.
Between thoughts.
Gray paper ash fluttered, enveloping the village not far away.
That's just at this time.
The scene in Li Hui's eyes changed.
To be precise, two different scenes appeared, one of which was the scene of a village, full of desolation and ruin.
The other picture is quite the opposite.
It's the same village, but it's modern.
The village is full of buildings, including two-storey and three-storey buildings, and there are even some Western-style western-style buildings.
In addition, the modern village was full of all kinds of people, all of them busy with their own business, and it seemed to be alive and full of people, which was in stark contrast to the scene of the abandoned village.
But it's like this, two very different and completely different scenes are intertwined and overlapped, giving people a very strange feeling.
This is the ability that belongs to the supernatural bus, which allows Li Hui to see through the boundary between the supernatural land and the real world at this moment.
Every supernatural place has a point where it intersects with the real world, seemingly unrelated, as if it were two different worlds, but in fact, it only takes one opportunity for the scene of the supernatural place to completely merge with the real world.
This is also the origin of the first paranormal events in the real world.
It's because the ghosts of the supernatural land invaded the real world, and then gradually began to break out of supernatural events, and then the ghost riders appeared, and then they began to imprison the ghosts......
After thinking about it, Li Hui walked along the mud and stone path overgrown with weeds into the village.
The entire village was shrouded in his ghost domain, and it stands to reason that there are no secrets in the village that can escape Li Hui's perception, but the strange thing is that there is no trace of the ghost in his ghost domain, as if this is really just an ordinary village that has been deserted.
But this is clearly not possible.
Not to mention that this is a strange place clearly revealed by the human skin, how can there be no ghosts in the village located in this kind of supernatural place, after all, the middle-aged woman-like ghost just disappeared from his ghost domain, and it is very likely that he entered the village.
Thinking.
Li Hui continued to move forward.
The dull sound of footsteps echoed around, bringing a hint of life to the deserted village, but it also revealed an inexplicable sense of weirdness.
It didn't take long for Li Hui to enter the very center of the village.
During this period, he also entered several houses to investigate, but unfortunately Li Hui did not find any abnormalities in those houses, there were no traces of supernatural in the houses, and they seemed very normal, no different from those abandoned old houses in the countryside in the real world.
"Could it be that the ghosts in this village need a certain way to manifest?" Li Hui thought secretly in his heart.
There are indeed a lot of powerful ghosts in this world, and even the ghost domain can't be found by the naked eye, and you need to see them in some special ways, such as the powerful ghosts on the red stool, and nightmares and ghost dreams...... This.
"Damn the human skin, the information revealed is not perfect, it only says that the ghosts in this village are useful to me, but the description of the ghosts is extremely vague."
Time.
Li Hui had the idea of being pitted by human parchment.
The information revealed to him by the human skin paper was that the ghost was in this village, and at that time he thought that he would find the existence of the ghost as long as he entered this supernatural place, but now it seems that it is not so simple.
Not to mention the ghost revealed by the human skin, even the illusory female ghost figure who got off the supernatural bus before was not found.
"Huh? That's ......"
However, at the same time that Li Hui was complaining about the parchment in his heart, the footsteps that he originally planned to continue to move forward stopped suddenly, his brows were tightly locked, and his eyes looked straight ahead.
I saw a building sitting in front of him.
It was a two-story old house, the style was also very old, like a building in the style of the Republic of China, the whole house was built of green bricks, and the wood used to support the tiles on the roof had rotted a lot, so that the roof of the house collapsed.
In addition, the walls of the house are covered with moss, and the whole looks very barren and dilapidated, adding a bit of gloom to this old Republic of China house.
On the whole, this dilapidated old house of the Republic of China is almost the same as other wooden houses or earthen houses in the village, the same style is old, and the same dilapidated.
But this is not the case.
Because in Li Hui's ghost domain, there is a vacant land in front of him, and this dilapidated old mansion of the Republic of China does not actually exist.
In other words, it is an ancient mansion that can be seen with the naked eye, but does not appear in the ghost realm.
This situation reminded Li Hui of the supernatural place in the Caesar Hotel.
It's a ghost hotel!
The ghost walkway connected to Caesar's Hotel also cannot be revealed in the ghost domain, and the ghost domain must be closed to see the passage before entering the ghost hotel.
"The ghost is in this ancient mansion!"
Just when Li Hui was looking at the ancient mansion, he suddenly found that a figure flashed by at the window on the second floor of the old mansion, and the speed was very fast, even Li Hui couldn't fully see the appearance of the figure.
If nothing else, the figure that flashed by was most likely the ghost mentioned on the plumment, which was the target of Li Hui's trip.
After all, judging from the scene of this deserted village, there is a high probability that the older generation of ghost handlers who suppressed this supernatural place have died, so the probability that that figure is a powerful ghost is greater than that of a ghost handler who survived the Republic of China period.
Even if it is really from that period of the Republic of China, there is a high probability that it will be a powerful ghost after the revival of the ghost!
Thinking of this, Li Hui took a step forward and came directly to the old-fashioned ancient mansion, then raised his hand and pushed towards the closed gate.
The door of the ancient mansion in front of him was closed, so he couldn't use the ability of the ghost domain to teleport in directly, and the seemingly ordinary building isolated the invasion of his ghost domain, and it had never appeared in the ghost domain at all, so he could only enter through the most primitive way of opening the door.
"Crunch~!"
The gate of the old-fashioned mansion was the same as the houses in the village that Li Hui had explored before, and it didn't take much effort to enter from the outside, and the gate opened with a slight push.
The moment the door was pushed open, a cold, damp smell came to my face, and there was a faint smell of rotten musty in the air.
In addition, the environment inside the ancient mansion is dim and oppressive, and there is no light.
But Li Hui's face was as usual, he first looked up at the hall of the building a few times, and then walked in directly.
There weren't many things in the hall on the first floor of the old house, only some badly decayed wood scattered on the ground, which looked like some wooden furniture, but because it had been there for too long, all of them had rotted.
Compared with the houses that Li Hui had explored before, the furniture and facilities in this ancient house were even inferior to those houses, at least the tables and stools in those houses had not completely decayed, and the degree of decay was far less than that of this ancient house.
There are three rooms on the entire ground floor in addition to the hall.
The door of the innermost room was open, judging from the objects inside, it should be the kitchen, and Li Hui had already seen half of the stove, which was the kind that used to burn firewood in the countryside.
As for the doors of the other two rooms, they are closed, and I don't know what is inside, but I think it is not a bedroom or a storage room.
Li Hui didn't open the two doors at this moment and planned to go in and take a look in person, but directly put his eyes on the stairs leading to the second floor on the other side.
The figure he saw before flashed by the window on the second floor, and then Li Hui used the ability of the Ghost Domain to teleport to the front of the ancient mansion and push the door in, moving very fast.
If nothing else, the owner of that figure should still be on the second floor at this moment.
Unless the other party also used the ability of the Ghost Domain to move, it was impossible to go down to the first floor in such a short period of time and hide in a room on the first floor.
The stairs of the old house are not made of concrete, but wooden stairs, and many of the steps have decayed, making people wonder if they will fall down if they step on them.
However, Li Hui did not plan to go up step by step, just like the supernatural passage leading to the ghost hotel in the Caesar Hotel, the use of the ghost domain after entering this ancient mansion was not affected.
The gray paper ash continued to fall, and soon spread to all corners of the ancient mansion, and at the same time, a portrait of a figure appeared in front of Li Hui, which was the oil painting of Yang Xiao and them.
Immediately after Li Hui's mind moved, the portrait began to gradually become illusory, on the contrary, Yang Xiao and others in the portrait became more realistic, and finally the oil painting dissipated, and Yang Xiao and others appeared in the hall on the first floor of this old house.
"Here?"
Yang Xiao, who was the leader, set his eyes on Li Hui, with a question in his eyes.
Then Li Hui told the general situation from beginning to end, and said his purpose, wanting Yang Xiao and others to explore this ancient mansion, not only the two rooms with closed doors in the hall on the first floor, but also the second floor of the ancient mansion, and even other places.
"Unknown supernatural land? An old mansion that cannot be invaded even by the ghost domain painted by the ghost, and can only be seen with the eyes, and will not be revealed in the ghost domain......"
Yang Xiao's eyes moved slightly, and he quickly understood the meaning of Li Hui's words, and also knew the true purpose of Li Hui's use of these dead souls.
Perhaps in terms of strength alone, they are not Li Hui's opponents.
But when it comes to the experience of dealing with supernatural beings, Li Hui is obviously not as good as these dead souls, with their help, Li Hui can get what he wants in the shortest possible time, and the secrets of this ancient mansion will be discovered in the fastest time.
"Okay, I got it."
Yang Xiaoying said.
Naturally, the other revenants would not have an opinion.
Soon everyone's actions began, and more than thirty souls scattered in twos and threes, and began to explore the ancient mansion.
And Li Hui's figure also came to the second floor of the ancient mansion.
The layout of this floor is not much different from the first floor.
There is also a large hall plus three rooms, and the doors of all three rooms are closed.
"Did the ghost enter a room?"
The hall on the second floor was empty, without any furniture, and similarly, Li Hui, who went up to the second floor, did not notice the figure that flashed by the window of the hall on the second floor.
The second floor of the ancient mansion is also weird, isolating the spirit of the ghost realm, even though the paper ashes in the sky are scattered all over the ancient mansion, but it is impossible to really invade the bedrooms with the doors closed, and there is no way to know what is behind the doors.
Stomp, stomp!
Li Hui stepped forward and walked towards the door of the room closest to him.
Now that the figure had disappeared, he prepared to check room by room, and there were only three rooms on the second floor anyway.
The paint on the bedroom door is brownish-red, but at the moment there are many places on the door where the paint has peeled off and is mottled, apparently because it has been there for too long.
"Smack!"
Li Hui reached out and grabbed the doorknob, which was already covered with rust, and then slowly turned it vigorously, trying to open the door in front of him.
However, the door lock seemed to be completely rusted to death, and Li Hui felt a huge resistance when he twisted it, but he didn't care, the strength in his hand increased a little again, and then continued to turn the doorknob.
"Click......"
With the addition of the supernatural power of the bus, at this moment Li Hui showed the terrifying power that the living should not have, and for a while, the doorknob on the door began to bend irregularly, and it had begun to gradually deform.
But even though the rusty doorknob had been twisted to an exaggerated level, it still didn't break or break.
It seemed that there was some kind of supernatural power that maintained this incredible phenomenon, but strangely enough, Li Hui did not feel any traces of supernatural power, as if the door in front of him was not the slightest abnormal.
