Chapter 521: The Portrait That Fell
After exploring Huanggang Village for so long, Li Jun and the others thought that although their group did not succeed in completing the plan, they also created some hope.
There are so many families in this village, as long as you are lucky, it is not difficult to find the ghost along the way, of course, provided that there are no accidents on the ghost painting.
But what everyone didn't expect was that a lot of incredible and strange things were found in this house suspected of being ghosts.
A mutilated paper figure.
The appearance of each paper figure is Liu San's, his face is sallow, his eyes are dead, and his residual expression is a little frightened and a little unbelievable, this dead man's appearance looks particularly strange under the reflection of Li Jun's green ghost fire.
One, two, three...... There are a total of five paper figures.
Liu San counted with a solemn face.
"Five times, we've been to this house a total of five times. His voice trembled a little when he said this, because it was a terrible scene that he couldn't understand.
None of the previous supernatural events have had such an incredible change.
The others looked at the five paper figures in the room, and they were also silent and solemn.
"Impossible, Liu San, your speculation must be wrong, this is the first time we have been here, we have not been here before, I remember it very clearly. Su Fan behind him immediately interrupted his conjecture.
Maybe this familiar paper figure reminded Liu San of some terrifying facts.
But he couldn't agree with Liu San's conjecture.
Liu San's tone was a little anxious: "If we haven't been here, why do we leave my paper figure here? I was killed by a ghost once, and a paper figure will die for me, and now there are five here, which means that I have been killed by a ghost five times since I entered here, but I have not been killed once since I entered here." ”
"Is there something wrong with our memory? Or did we encounter the onicha before, but failed to imprison it, causing the onicha to restart, and we are now repeating the previous thing?"
Reboot?
The ghost does have this weird ability.
But this reboot is only for the oni itself, and it can't affect other people, let alone everyone's memories.
"Liu San, this is just speculation from your personal point of view, if we have been here, not only you, but even us should have left some traces. Li Jun said calmly.
The others fell silent.
Although they didn't find any traces of individuals in this house, the five paper figures of Liu San appeared very strangely, as if something really killed Liu San five times here, and now their appearance belongs to the sixth time.
Did you really come here and trigger some kind of ghost reboot?
Or is there something else that is causing this to happen?
Incomprehensible.
But Liu San's words reminded everyone.
"Withdraw, whether we have been here before or not, there has been a change in Huanggang Village that we can't understand, this change is very bad, and if we don't leave, we're afraid we won't be able to leave." After a moment of silence, Su Fan put down the lit mobile phone in his hand and made a safe suggestion.
"It makes sense, if Liu San's guess is true, then now we can't even believe our own memories, and imprisoning the ghost cha has become a joke, and ...... The ghost painting is still there. Another man said.
Before he could finish speaking, he looked out again.
The sky was still gray, and there was no color in the whole world, nor was there any sound, which was oppressive and frightening.
Ordinary people will be scared to death when they come to this place, let alone look for ghosts in this unknown place.
It's inconceivably stressful.
Li Jun is in a dilemma at the moment.
This time he led the team, so he had to make up his mind when there was a disagreement in his choices.
Do you continue your search for this terrible village, or do you want to leave?
Every choice has a price, and if you leave, it will be a failure, but if you continue, you may be wiped out with the whole team.
There is a precedent for the ghost painting incident itself to wipe out a team.
"It's a pity to go now, the ghost domain of the ghost has been suppressed, Professor Wang's plan has succeeded, and now the location of the ghost is almost determined, we can solve this S-class supernatural event, once we miss this ...... There will never be another chance, and we can't afford to lose this time. Li Jun's expression changed, and finally gritted his teeth and said.
If it's somewhere else, it's withdrawn.
But this place is different, the city not far behind him must not be involved in a supernatural event, otherwise the consequences will be ten times more serious than the original starving ghost incident.
"Is this going to be desperate?"
The others were stunned when they saw this.
It is not difficult to see from Li Jun's words that this time he is going to solve the ghost problem with his life, even if it is the dedication of desperate group annihilation.
At this moment.
Without waiting for everyone to argue, in the silence, a clear footstep came from the next room.
The appearance of this footstep made everyone quiet for an instant, and they all stared at the opposite side of the hallway.
Five people, not a single one of them moved.
But the footsteps still echoed.
The voice was dull and stiff, without the lightness of a living person, like a walking living corpse.
"Crunch!"
The wooden door of the next room seemed to have been pushed open by something, and the old hinges rubbed against each other, stirring everyone's nerves.
Ghost!
The previous judgment was correct, the ghost was indeed on the second floor.
It's just that Liu San opened the first house and saw five dead paper figures, which affected everyone's actions, otherwise how could he not investigate the second room.
The man was ready to be attacked by the demons.
However, the wooden door of the second room stopped halfway open.
By opening half of the door, they could see nothing, only pitch black, and at the same time, the footsteps inside also disappeared.
"I'll go. Liu San didn't speak, just glanced at the others and walked forward.
The distance was very close, no more than five meters at most, and it only took a few steps to open the half-hidden wooden door.
Liu San is confident that he will survive the attack of the ghost, this is to take his life to obtain information, after all, the ghost in this house is not necessarily a ghost, and it cannot be dealt with by the law of dealing with ghosts.
However, just as Liu San had just acted, Li Jun grabbed him and shook his head.
"Why?" Liu San asked with a frown.
Li Jun directly lit the ghost candle with a cold face.
If Liu San's conjecture is true, they have been here before, then did Liu San's current operation also die here like the previous actions that did not exist in memory?
If this is the case, then changing the course of action may affect the outcome later.
So whether the reboot in memory is true or not, Li Jun has to break the law of action.
Ghost candles are items that keep everyone safe.
Now there is no reason to save.
The next moment.
The candlelight of the ghost candle was lit, and a cold and unsettling aura around it was instantly dispelled.
"It's burning fast, it's not right. But when Li Jun saw the burning speed of the ghost candle, his eyes shrank.
The rate of burning is slow.
This speed doesn't look like there's a ghost around.
"Together. ”
Li Jun let out a low snort, rushed over in an instant, and kicked open the half-hidden wooden door.
Loud voices echoed through the dark room.
The next moment, five people rushed in.
The ghost candle illuminates the darkness and gives them the confidence not to be extinguished.
But when everyone rushed in, there was nothing in the dimly lit room, only some old furniture and some farm tools that were not used for many years.
"Nothing? Someone exclaimed.
There were footsteps just now, and I saw the door being pushed open.
"Let's go!"
And yet at the moment.
An old portrait hanging on the wall fell.
It was a portrait of an old man, and it was very common for the elderly who died first in the countryside to leave a portrait at home.
The fallen portrait lay quietly on the ground.
Under the eerie candlelight, the appearance of an old man in the portrait became blurry and weird, the upper half of the face was shrouded in darkness, and it was not clear to see, but the lower half of the face seemed to show a smile, which seemed to be kind, but everywhere revealed a creepy horror.
And next to the portrait, there are some illegible handwriting.
It seems to be the old man's birthday, time of death, children and grandchildren, and so on.
