"The devil is coming out!"

The lobby on the first floor of the old house.

The eyes of the souls were all looking inside the two open doors, and the slightly dim environment could not completely block their view, and everything in the room came into view.

The first thing that attracted attention was the room that Yang Xiao had explored, and it was also the first to come out, and the slightly stiff footsteps were very dull, with a special pattern, and began to approach the outside of the room.

With the gaze of the crowd.

The scene in the room changed suddenly.

At some point, a tall figure appeared in the center of the room, next to the red coffin, and was walking out of the hall outside the room.

It was a man with a naked upper body and a gray trouser on the lower half of his body, and his figure was very tall, more than two meters long, and his appearance was extremely terrifying.

The man's exposed body was covered with wounds from unknown sharp weapons, and there were many of them, some of them were shallow, but most of the wounds were deep and bone-deep.

What's even more strange is that those wounds have no signs of scarring, and the skin and flesh are turned outward, intertwined with each other, looking very hideous and terrifying.

Besides.

There was no blood flowing from the wound on the tall man's body, and the flesh and skin were different from the flesh and blood of normal people, it was black, giving people an extremely strange feeling.

Compared to a wound on the body.

The man's face is even more terrifying!

There were no facial features on his face at all, only a black blood hole, as if his face had been cut alive with a knife.

Stomp, stomp!

The tall man kept walking.

Walk towards the hall where the souls are.

As the man approached, a cold aura began to spread through the hall, and a faint smell of corpses permeated the hall.

Compared to this terrifying-looking tall man, the scene in the other room was undoubtedly much better.

Although the environment in the room is also dim, and there are ghosts inside, the appearance of ghosts is not terrifying.

In the center of the room there was also a coffin, but it was black with a word written on it, which looked eerie.

At this moment, a middle-aged woman dressed in white and looking to be in her thirties with her hair loose walked out of the black coffin, looking at the direction she was traveling, which was also the hall on the first floor of the ancient mansion.

If Li Hui was here at this time, he would definitely be able to recognize that the middle-aged woman looked exactly the same as the illusory ghost who had been suppressed by him.

The only difference between the two is that the body of the powerful ghost suppressed by Li Hui is illusory, like a projected figure, while the middle-aged woman in the room on the first floor is extremely real.

The tall man and the middle-aged woman were obviously not human, but real ghosts, because some kind of rule in the ancient mansion was triggered, and they all had to come out of the room at this moment.

And even more than that.

Immediately after that, Yang Xiao and the other souls set their eyes on the small room on the innermost side of the hall on the first floor, that room did not have a door, judging from some of the revealed objects, it seemed to be the kitchen of this ancient house, because they could clearly see the corner of the stove.

There was also movement in the kitchen.

It was like someone was pulling something, and it was like someone crawling on the ground, but the strange thing was that Yang Xiao and the other souls did not see the ghost, and the movement only echoed in the kitchen, and it didn't seem to mean to come out of the hall.

"Looks like we're only going to have to deal with those two ghosts for the time being."

A revenant spoke.

Although the tall man and the middle-aged woman walked out of the hall where they were, the faces of the revenants did not show the slightest hint of fear, at most they only showed a trace of solemnity, obviously not thinking that they and others could not suppress the two powerful ghosts.

"The ghosts on the first floor should be these ones, I don't know if there is a target for Li Hui among them, and there is a ...... on the second floor of the ancient mansion."

"With Li Hui's strength, there has been no news for so long, and there is no movement from other people searching for the second floor, it seems that the situation on the second floor is far more dangerous than the first floor!"

A revenant soul spoke something like that.

They have never forgotten the purpose of themselves and others.

The reason why they appeared in this ancient mansion was entirely because Li Hui was looking for a certain ghost, and they were helping to search for traces of the supernatural.

But they didn't know what kind of physical characteristics or abilities the ghosts Li Hui was looking for had, so the souls didn't know if there were any of the three ghosts on the first floor of the ancient mansion that Li Hui was looking for.

Tread, trample......

Between thoughts.

The middle-aged woman dressed in white with a dull face and a tall figure with a terrifying appearance all walked out of the room and into the hall.

Almost as soon as they stepped out of the room, all the undead in the hall began to act, as if they had been agreed in advance, attacking the two ghosts at the same time.

The cold aura was spreading, and the temperature in the hall suddenly dropped a lot, and the already dim environment became even more gloomy.

Yang Xiao's slightly indifferent gaze was on the tall man's body, his body did not move, but a strange aura began to spread on the ghost's body.

This is the ghost dream supernatural controlled by Yang Xiao, and the level of horror is very high, and it is precisely because of this ability that he has the title of 'Nightmare Yang Xiao' in the supernatural circle.

The attacks harnessed by other revenants followed.

Many of them have the same long-range attack ability as Yang Xiao, some kind of supernatural curse invasion, which has an impact on the ghosts, and some of the revenant's abilities need to be through direct contact to work.

The spirit is infected, the weird is spreading, and the whole person of this part of the dead soul has become extremely cold at this moment, and from the outside, it seems to be no different from the real ghost.

Then they quickly approached the ghost, and began to attack the middle-aged woman in white, and the tall, terrifying ghost......

Meanwhile.

Inside a bedroom on the second floor of the ancient house.

In this bedroom, it seems that there are only Li Hui and Zhang Zhao, as well as the slightly illusory ghost who has been suppressed, and nothing else.

But this was not the case, and the sound of dull, stiff footsteps echoed around the dimly lit environment.

The owner of the footsteps was the strange old man in a black robe.

Its figure was not revealed, not only could it not be seen with the naked eye, but it could not even be perceived by the ghost domain, but it was reflected in the bronze mirror on the dresser, and the old man's movements could be determined by observing the bronze mirror.

At first, the direction in which the strange old man was moving was where Li Hui was, but after halfway through, he changed the direction of travel and began to walk back and forth in this bedroom.

This sudden change seems to be because neither Li Hui nor Zhang Zhao triggered the old man's killing law and did not meet the conditions for being attacked by powerful ghosts, so the old man wandered in the bedroom and did not attack Li Hui and them.

During this period, Li Hui and Zhang Zhao both tried to suppress the old man, but in the end they all failed.

Whether it was Zhang Zhao's black shadow attack, or the swing of the firewood knife, the suppression of the coffin nails, including the supernatural of the bus, they could not have any impact on the strange old man in the bedroom, and they could not touch the old man's body at all.

Even the cursed medium of the old chai knife failed to trigger!

It stands to reason that the old man has been lying on the old wooden bed for a long time, and there should be traces left by the old man on the wooden bed.

But when the figure holding the firewood knife placed the other palm on the wooden bed, ready to dismember the old man through the medium of the firewood knife, he found that the woodknife medium could not be triggered at all, as if there was no trace of the old man on the wooden bed at all.

The situation in front of him seemed to be extremely unfavorable to Li Hui, and even the old man's body could not be touched by all the means, as if it did not exist in the world at all.

After all, even if it is a shadow, as long as it has supernatural powers, then it is impossible to completely ignore all the attacks of Li Hui and the two of them.

"This situation is like the old man is in another time and space, but it is more like a strange projection, but the footsteps are real, it is really weird!"

Zhang Zhao said with a solemn expression.

His gaze was the same as Li Hui's, looking at the bronze mirror on the dresser, because only that mirror reflected the old man's figure.

Through the bronze mirror, it can be clearly seen that the strange old man at this moment is very close to Li Hui's location, only about one meter away, such a short distance, as if he can touch the other party's body as long as he stretches out his hand,

However, Li Hui didn't do this, because he had already tried before, not only the figures derived from ghost paintings, but he himself had attacked the old man, but the final result was the same, and he couldn't touch the other party at all.

As Zhang Zhao said, the weirdness of the old man can be said to be far beyond imagination.

Time.

Even Li Hui had a feeling of not knowing where to start.

In fact, he is not afraid of encountering a very terrifying ghost, after all, there is a coffin nailed in his hand, no matter how terrifying the ghost is, he can put it down with a nail, but when he encounters this kind of complex ghost that can't touch the body at all, the ability of the coffin nail is very chicken.

"Find a way to lure this awesome ghost out!"

After thinking for a moment, Li Hui said to Zhang Zhao: "This strange old man in front of him is like some kind of supernatural manifestation, in other words, it is like it has no entity at this moment, but there are exceptions to everything. ”

"I guess that the weird old man's body will appear at the moment of attacking people, and we can seize the opportunity of that moment to restrain him!"

At this moment, Li Hui thought of the supernatural spirit of Yang Jian who went to Dadong City for the first time in the original book.

At that time, Yang Jian encountered an extremely strange ghost, and his body was connected to a red bench, and only when a person sat on the red stool and triggered its killing law, the ghost would appear.

It was precisely because of this that Yang Jian and the others successfully nailed the powerful ghost to death.

The emergence of this idea gave Li Hui great inspiration, after all, every ghost has an almost specific supernatural rule, and only by following the supernatural rules can you better deal with the supernatural!

"You mean, use myself as bait, and then take the initiative to trigger the killing law of the ghosts, and then strike together to restrain the ghosts the moment they act?"

Zhang Zhao didn't have a lot of experience in supernatural events, and he almost instantly reacted to the meaning of Li Hui's words.

"Yes." Li Hui nodded, but his gaze did not shift for half a minute, still staring at the bronze mirror on the dresser.

He didn't think Zhang Zhao would reject his offer, because it was the best way to do it at the moment.

And the fact is indeed as Li Hui thought, Zhang Zhao agreed to Li Hui's plan after a short period of thought.

But there is still a mystery that haunts the two of them.

Zhang Zhao opened his mouth and said: "But we don't know what the killing rules of the weird old man are, the killing rules of each ghost are different, and some of them are all strange, we can't try them one by one, right?" ”

"Not really!"

Li Hui's gaze suddenly moved away from the bronze mirror on the dresser, looked at the old wooden bed on the other side of the bedroom, and continued: "You lie on that wooden bed and try it." ”

"The weird old man was lying on that wooden bed at the beginning, although I am not sure at this time, but it cannot be ruled out whether its killing pattern is related to the bed, or the action of lying down."

Li Hui's words just fell.

Zhang Zhao on the side began to act.

He walked quickly to the edge of the old black sandalwood bed, then climbed up directly, and lay on the wooden bed under Li Hui's gaze.

Almost as soon as Zhang Zhao lay down, his vision changed.

The surrounding scene quickly became blurred, and soon, everything in the bedroom disappeared, whether it was the old furniture or the dilapidated scene, even Li Hui's figure disappeared from Zhang Zhao's sight.

At this moment, the whole world seemed to be left with only this old black wooden bed and Zhang Zhao lying on the bed.

No, it's not just him......

At this moment, Zhang Zhao seemed to suddenly feel something, his head twisted slightly, and his eyes looked to the other side.

I don't know when.

There was a stiff figure standing next to the wooden bed where he was lying, this person Zhang Zhao knew, it was the strange old man!

And on the other side.

The scene Li Hui saw in his eyes was completely different from the scene Zhang Zhao saw, and in his sight, Zhang Zhao disappeared from under his nose the moment he lay down.

It's very abrupt.

There were no signs.

Zhang Zhao's body disappeared in an instant when he lay on the wooden bed, not only did he disappear from Li Hui's sight, but even his ghost domain could not perceive Zhang Zhao's existence.

But the dull, stiff footsteps in the room still existed, and the figure of the strange old man was still reflected in the bronze mirror on the dresser, lingering in this bedroom.
