Haunted Houses’ Chronicles

Chapter 127: Satisfy innocent curiosity

Views:

I felt a little guilty holding the candle, but this feeling disappeared quickly.

Bai Kai entered the house, opened the grasshopper cages he bought one by one, and released the grasshoppers inside. Thinking that these things will be eaten by chickens in a short while, I still feel distressed. This chicken feed is also too high-end.

The grasshoppers were all in good spirits, and after a few releases, they each jumped to the corner. Bai Kai turned around and picked up the rooster, untied the rope tied to his feet, and the others stood aside.

I don't need to describe what happened next.

I probably saw chicken pecking bugs when I was a child. The scene is about the same. I quickly lit a candle here, and the fire just started. Bai Kai turned off the lights in the house.

Now I can finally see some weak light reflected in it.

I was standing very close to the door, so the candlelight was stronger than the light reflected by the gong. Bai Kai asked me to take a few steps back, and now there was only the light reflected by the gong in the room.

This is easy to say, but difficult in practice.

First of all, I dare not make any big moves, for fear of turning on the voice-activated lights in the corridor.

Second, the rooster was far more agile than I had imagined, and as soon as my bare front feet touched its hind feet, it disappeared.

The rooster inside was strolling around, and ate several grasshoppers in a short while. The grasshopper also felt the presence of natural enemies, no one dared to make a sound, even I couldn't help holding my breath.

About three minutes passed. I don't know if the chicken has eaten all the grasshoppers or is full, but it just stood still and didn't move.

It's easier for me now, and my hands can finally be free for a while.

At this moment, I suddenly heard a grasshopper calling out from inside. It's not loud, but it's real enough for this moment.

I was quite surprised, is this a declaration of war on the chicken

I heard Bai Kai shouting at me under his throat, quickly change the white wax, and see what's in the house!

In this case, it would be a lie to say that there is no panic. But my hands were not vague, and I immediately lit the white wax to take a photo.

Guang greeted him into the room, and scanned a few times blindly, but didn't see anything.

Bai Kai didn't give me instructions, so I could only scan the center of the room and then take photos of a few corners.

This photo doesn't matter, just at the corner of the enlarged rice before, the light seems to have some changes.

This kind of change is hard to describe, it's a bit like shining on the water, and the light is hazy and scattered.

I analyzed it with my eyes wide open, trying to see if the wallpaper was reflective. But before I could take another look, the candle in my hand went out.

I couldn't help but let out an ah, and I turned on the voice-activated lights in the corridor, and the room became much brighter at once.

I saw Bai Kai standing blankly on the side of the room, and with his complexion, I could tell that his face had turned pale.

Things are obviously going to be bad. If Bai Kai collapses, I will give it away for nothing.

I yelled Bai Kai, what did you see

Bai Kai was stunned for a moment, and immediately rushed towards the corner. Shouted, catch the chicken quickly, before it eats the last grasshopper!

I didn't even have the time to react, so I rushed in two steps.

The chicken had been standing there in a daze before, but now it was obviously startled to see someone jumping over, and for a while, the chicken jumped around in the room,

In such a small space, chickens are obviously much more flexible than humans. I only got a few feathers after grasping for a long time.

Bai Kai's side didn't go well, and even made several empty attempts, and we almost bumped into each other several times.

After working so hard for three or four minutes, I barely grabbed the chicken wings. I was afraid that the chicken would run away again, so I didn't care too much, and directly pressed the chicken under my body!

Wait until Bai Kai catches the grasshopper. We were both sweating profusely.

Not caring about the communication, Bai Kai took out his pocket knife and slaughtered the chicken when he came up. To my surprise, he didn't intend to kill the chicken for blood, but cut off a small piece of chicken and fed it to the grasshopper.

The grasshopper didn't know the reason, and he was not vague, so he swallowed a few mouthfuls.

After all this was done, Bai Kai collapsed to the ground and panted heavily, I said, can you wait a while before resting, first tell me what is in this room.

Bai Kai dipped his hands in some chicken blood, tasted it, and told me that there was an old ghost in the house. I heard it was an old ghost, so I didn't worry about it.

I asked again, what is it like

Bai Kai got up and pulled me outside the door, said, this is a long story, but because of the situation I made before, this old ghost regards himself as a god. Let's be careful when we leave, and don't talk nonsense.

I was very discouraged when I heard it, and it was not reliable to co-author Baikai. What kind of long-burning lamp game has been played for a long time, and in the end, people are defiled and promoted to immortals

When it's not time to bicker, I nod my head. Bai Kai pulled me back again, took an iron pot from the kitchen and started burning paper money on the spot, chanting while burning.

Said that the two of us passed by here unintentionally, and we planned to stay overnight. Unexpectedly, the master is still here, and we are not very polite. This amount of money is considered an apology, and after speaking, he bowed respectfully.

Although I don't understand, I can only follow along.

After completing this set of procedures, Bai Kai carefully packed up his things and tiptoedly led me out of the house. Bai Kai seemed very cautious until he got off the elevator and exited the building door.

After walking a little further, he let out a long breath.

I held back for a long time, so I hurriedly asked him what was going on in this room, and hoped that he would be lenient to me.

Bai Kai lit a flue, he is heartless, don't tell me about this, I can't afford to lose anyone.

I thought to myself, you begged me, dare to use this tone? But he didn't say much, nodded and waited for Bai Kai to explain.

Bai Kai sighed, and said that you also saw it in the end, the guy in the room must be an old guy, how old it is, I can't tell now. But at least it has to be from the Qing Dynasty.

I said, this is not right, this house is not an old house, how can there be the filth of the Qing Dynasty for no reason? Besides, even if something like a tomb was destroyed by the foundation when the building was built, the filth wouldn't come to the 14th floor, would it

I asked, how can you be sure that thing is from the Qing Dynasty? Is it your relative

"Just because that old ghost is an eunuch!" Bai Kai popped out the cigarette butt and said again, do you know what an eunuch is? Now where the hell are there eunuchs!

I was stunned, I was the one who used the light before, but I didn't see anything. Even if Bai Kaili is closer than me, he can tell if someone has a stick

I said I didn't understand, you have to explain it to me. Otherwise tomorrow I'll go around telling people you screwed up.

Bai Kai had no choice but to continue to explain to me. In fact, he had already had some guesses when he found the grass seeds. However, there were not enough clues at that time, so I dared not jump to conclusions. After all, this is a high-level place, so it really doesn't make sense for the old filth to appear here.

However, later on he gradually discovered that there was something wrong with the yin in this room.

At first he thought that the troublemaker was a filthy woman, that's why she was so sinister.

But when the light from my gong shone into the room, he realized that the troublemaker was actually a male. This made him very surprised, and combined with the previous guess, he concluded that there was an eunuch here.

This gong has the function of scaring the road in ancient times. That is to say, when traveling, you need to avoid the sound of gongs. Under certain conditions, the sound can also exorcise evil spirits and make righteousness clear. This is why in ancient times, when the high officials traveled, they would blow gongs and set off cannons.

As everyone knows, the light reflected by this gong is also a kind of alchemy. This is called in the jargon, hanging light.

This is very close to the light reflected by a mirror, and it is a method in alchemy. But when you look deeper, it is completely different. The reflection of this mirror has the function of warding off evil spirits and calming the soul, while the reflection of this gong is for the righteous soul.

It may be a bit obscure to simply explain it this way.

This mirror has been a double-edged sword since ancient times. If you use it properly, everything will be safe, but if you use it improperly, it may cause disaster.

A very modern explanation is that the light of this mirror is very bright, similar to the effect of anti-inflammatory drugs. If you are sick, eat it to cure the disease, but if you are not sick, eat it will be harmful to the body.

And the light reflected by this gong is very euphemistic. The general analogy is vitamin tablets, which work when needed. When you don't need it, it doesn't affect much if you eat it, and it can even prevent it.

That's why he asked me to sweep with a gong light.

One is that I am afraid of using the light of the mirror to shine on things, which will annoy the other party and make it difficult to clean up. After all, they still don't know the opponent's strength. Cannot attack blindly.

Secondly, I want to see what it is, and I have a bottom line in my heart, and I also want to satisfy my curiosity.
