'Meishan Village' is a village under the jurisdiction of 'Yang Town' in the east of Dachang City, which is about five or six miles away from 'Yang Town' and about thirty or forty miles away from the urban area of Dachang City.

Like most villages across the country.

Most of the young people in Meishan Village have gone out to work or go to school, and some villagers have moved away, so there are not many people left in the village, and the overall appearance is very quiet, and it can even be said that it is a little deserted.

And the name Meishan Village itself is a bit strange, because there are no plum blossoms here, no mountains, no bayberry, not to mention sika deer and the like, I really don't know why people took such a village name back then.

"This is it."

this day.

Suddenly two uninvited guests came to the quiet village.

They were two handsome young men.

They appeared very suddenly.

It was as if it appeared on the road in the village out of thin air, without any warning, but fortunately no villagers saw this scene, otherwise they might think that it was a ghost in broad daylight.

"It's my old house in front of me, and now it's estimated that it will be very messy, because no one lives in the house, and my mother and I used to only come back during the Chinese New Year."

The people who came were Li Hui and Yang Jian.

Among them, Yang Jian pointed to a corner in front of the village and said, Li Hui did not make any comments on this, and walked directly in the direction Yang Jian said.

Soon.

The two of them came to a two-story cement house.

Indeed, as Yang Jian just said, this cement house has been uninhabited for a long time, and there are some moss growing on the house, and all kinds of aging and abandoned looks give people a slightly gloomy feeling.

It is not difficult to see that this house has been around for some years, and the overall style is relatively old, but it is estimated that it is one of the best in the village in the previous era, but now this style of building has been completely outdated, and the new buildings in the village are all small western-style houses.

"Let's go, go into the room where your father's portrait is." At this time, Li Hui said to Yang Jian.

"Hmm." Yang Jian responded.

However, before the two of them could fully put into action, they invariably stopped, and then looked in the direction behind them.

At the same time, a girl's voice came from behind the two:

"Cousin, are you really back? Just now I saw your back and felt very familiar, but I wasn't sure, so I came over to take a look, but I didn't expect it to be really you. ”

It was a girl who looked like she was about fifteen or sixteen years old, and she was trotting towards Yang Jian and their place at the moment.

Seeing this, Yang Jian took the initiative to introduce to Li Hui: "This is my cousin, her name is Xiaoyuan, I used to play with her when I was young, but then I went out to study and saw each other less." ”

"Madoka...... Is Liang Yuan? Hearing this, Li Hui looked at the girl who came over this side curiously, with an inquiring look on his face, after all, this cousin of Yang Jian is not so simple.

The girl's figure is not tall, her skin looks a little dark, but her appearance is cute, and the most striking thing is that it is a sunny sunny day, but she is wearing a raincoat on her body, and she is holding a fruit knife in her hand.

What's even more weird is that this girl always has an almost neurotic smile on her face, but when she gets close to Yang Jian's side, the nervous smile on her face begins to disappear and is replaced by a sweet smile of a normal girl.

"Madoka, what are you doing here?" Seeing the girl's outfit, Yang Jian also looked a little surprised, pointing to the knife in the other party's hand and asked.

"Oh, you mean this thing, of course it's for self-defense, have you forgotten, this is what you taught me before, you said that as long as you are bullied, you have to fight back!"

Madoka said, putting away the knife in his hand with a nonchalant face, putting on the knife holster, and then putting it into his arms.

Then she put her eyes on Li Hui on the side, and the moment she saw Li Hui's appearance, her face suddenly showed an extremely puzzled look, and then she said:

"Cousin, is this your friend? It's so strange, he feels so familiar to me, I seem to have seen him somewhere, but I can't remember, no, I haven't seen him, no, no, no, I did see him, but when did I see him, no, no......"

The expression on Madoka's face became even more confused, and the words in her mouth kept coming, and what seemed to have returned to normal became nervous again.

"Huh?"

"There's something wrong with her." At this time, Yang Jian also noticed something unusual, and stared at Xiao Yuan tightly.

This look really made him make some abnormal discoveries.

Yang Jian saw that there were more bruises on Xiaoyuan's slender arms, and the bruises looked like corpse spots, as if they had been pinched out by something.

"There is indeed a problem." Yang Jian, who noticed this scene, suddenly changed his expression.

He suspected that Madoka had encountered a supernatural event at some point, and she had been affected, which is why this situation occurred.

The only thing that makes Yang Jian a little uncertain is whether this matter has anything to do with his father, to be precise, with the powerful ghosts that his father controlled during his lifetime?

If there is, then it proves that the supernatural things that his father controlled during his lifetime began to spread and affect the people of Meishan Village, if it is not related, then it proves that there are other supernatural events around.

You must know that although Meishan Village is located in the countryside, it is still under the jurisdiction of Dachang City, and Yang Jian is the person in charge of Dachang City, plus this is his hometown, so this matter will fall on his head no matter what, and he will deal with it.

Come to think of this.

Yang Jian's heart sank.

But fortunately, at this time, his strength has improved a lot again, and he is accompanied by a truly top ghost master like Li Hui, so Yang Jian is not too worried.

"I can't remember where I've seen you, do you remember? If you remember, you can tell me. Madoka threw the question she hadn't figured out to Li Hui.

Hearing this, Li Hui smiled and said, "If I'm not mistaken, I shouldn't have seen you before, so there is a high probability that you have recognized the wrong person." ”

Let's be honest.

At this time, Li Hui himself was also a little confused.

He wasn't sure if Madoka was just speaking nervously, or if he was really serious, he had seen someone who was very similar to him before, and he was even very impressed, but Li Hui was sure that he really hadn't had any contact with Madoka.

"No, it can't be, how could we not have seen it? I've definitely seen you before, it's just that I can't remember when I saw you now, but it must have been a long, long time ago! ”

Madoka said nervously.

Then she changed her tone and continued: "But although I have forgotten when I have met you, I can be sure of one thing, you are very special, and I don't know what to say. ”

"It's like ...... Everyone here can be killed by something, but you won't be killed. ”

When it comes to death, Madoka's face has no fear, and her expression looks very serious, with a chill that makes people feel creepy.

"Okay, Madoka, my friend and I still have some things to deal with, you go back first, and I'll look for you when I'm done." Yang Jian said to Xiao Yuan in front of him.

At this time, he was desperate to find the answer, whether the strange changes in Xiaoyuan's body were related to the supernatural left by his father, Yang Jian wanted to pursue the truth about his father.

"Okay, cousin, I know, then I'll go home and wait for you first." I don't know why, when facing Yang Jian, Madoka's neurotic appearance instantly returned to normal, and the smile on her face became sweet again.

While speaking.

Madoka walked back the way she had come, back to her own house.

After Xiaoyuan's back disappeared completely, Yang Jian asked Li Hui: "You should also see that there is something wrong with my cousin, but she was not like this before, could this have something to do with my father's supernatural spirit?" ”

"She shouldn't have anything to do with your dad."

Li Hui pondered for a moment and said, "But I'm not 100% sure, but that's not the point, because after you finish digging up the secret left by your father, it will naturally be clear at that time." ”

Li Hui really doesn't know much about Xiaoyuan's origin, even if he has read the original book, he only knows a little bit of information, after all, he only mentioned it in the original book, saying that Liang Yuan is a person who has lived for three lives.

If you want to calculate it like this, Liang Yuan really doesn't have much to do with Yang Xiaotian, at least it must have nothing to do with it at first.

Because Liang Yuan's first life is very likely to be a person from the Republic of China, as for whether the second life has anything to do with the current life, then Li Hui is not sure, so he didn't say too much when he faced Yang Jian's inquiry just now.

"You're right, there's no need to dwell on these things now, now that we've come here, then everything will naturally become clear after dealing with my father's legacy."

Yang Jian nodded, looked at the old two-story cement house in front of him again, and then took out the key that had been prepared to open the door, and walked in with Li Hui.

"My father's portrait was placed in a room on the second floor, which used to be used to store miscellaneous items, but since my father's death, that room has been cleaned up by my mother as a place to put the portrait."

said.

Yang Jian led Li Hui and began to go upstairs.

Because there has been no one living in the house for too long, the walls, floor, and stairs in the house are all covered with dust, and even the corners of the ceiling are entangled with spider silk, which looks very dirty.

However, Li Hui and Yang Jian didn't care about this, they went all the way to the second floor and went straight to the room where Yang Jian's father's portrait was.

Li Hui, who has read the plot of the original book, remembers that Yang Xiaotian has arranged four supernatural places in Meishan Village, one of which is in Yangjian's old mansion, to be precise, the remains of the house.

The remaining three places where there are spirits are fish ponds, small temples, and the woods where Yang Xiaotian raised dogs before his death......

………

"Crunch~"

Soon.

The door of a room on the second floor of the building was opened, and the light suddenly shone in, making everything inside into the eyes of Li Hui and the others.

The interior of the room is not very large, and there is an old-fashioned-looking wooden table with a black and white posthumous photo placed on it, and next to the posthumous photo are some incense burners and other things that are usually used for memorial services.

The man in the portrait is a young man in his early twenties, and the young man's appearance is very similar to Yang Jian, and if Yang Jian matures in a few years, he may be more similar to the person in the photo.

"Looks like it's normal here, there's nothing wrong with it, it looks like we'll have to go to my father's grave." Yang Jian said after looking around.

On his forehead, a scarlet ghost eye scanned back and forth, looking at everything around him, but he didn't find any other superfluous signs, and finally set his eyes on Li Hui on the side as before.

"Sometimes you can't look at things too one-sidedly, because even if it's a ghost's eye, it doesn't mean that you don't have a time to look away." At this time, Li Hui smiled at Yang Jian and said.

Then he set his eyes on the black and white portrait on the wooden table, and said, "Come out, your existence can't be hidden from me, it just so happens that I have something I want to confirm with you." ”

Looked at.

Yang Jian also looked at his father's portrait again with some suspicion.

But one second passed, two seconds passed, then three seconds, four seconds...... The black-and-white statue on the old wooden table has never changed, as if it were really just an ordinary statue, without any supernatural spirits.

Seeing that there was no abnormal situation around him, Yang Jian immediately wanted to ask Li Hui if he had made a mistake, but before he could speak, Li Hui spoke first.

At this time, Li Hui continued to say to the black and white portrait on the table: "Don't toast and don't eat and drink, I'm politely asking you to come out now, if you don't cooperate, then I can only do it." ”

said.

Li Hui's whole person exuded a cold aura.

Suddenly.

The powerful ghost in Yang Jian's body is frantically warning.

Especially the ghost eye on his forehead, which began to throb uneasily at this moment, and closed directly in the next second, and the spirit fell silent, no matter how Yang Jian operated, there was no response.

Then, just when Yang Jian thought that Li Hui was going to use the supernatural on an ordinary statue, something unexpected happened to him.

I saw that the light in the room instantly dimmed, and then the eyes of the man on the portrait really moved, and the whole thing was shrouded in darkness, giving people an incomprehensible weirdness, as if a person hidden in the darkness was peeping at everything in the room.

"It's really me who has lost my eyes, and there is really something wrong with this portrait of my father!" Seeing this, the expression on Yang Jian's face was very surprised, and at the same time, there was a hint of jealousy in his eyes.

Even the detection of the ghost eye can conceal the past, you can imagine how terrifying the ghost in this statue is, if he faces it alone, he is likely to be hit if he is not careful.

What frightened Yang Jian the most was that.

Now that there is a terrible ghost in this posthumous portrait, then when he came back with his mother to pay respects before, wouldn't it be equivalent to being in the same room with the terrible ghost?

And in previous years, when the two of them returned to the village for the New Year, he and his mother both lived in this building, which was equivalent to living under the same roof as the ghost.

As soon as he thought of this, Yang Jian felt shuddered, and he was very glad that he and his mother were still alive until now, and they were not killed by the ghosts in the statue.
