Haunted Houses’ Chronicles

Chapter 70: Another shadow

Views:

This is not the first time I have seen this shadow, or it is not the first time I have seen this kind of shadow. After the statue of Zhong Kui was pushed down in the house where the nine sons were dug out, I saw such a one.

The black shadow is still hazy, and there are no obvious physical features. I don't know if it is a thing. I froze and confronted it on the spot, and I didn't even feel scared. I just kept recalling the black shadows I saw in Jiuzi's house in my mind, trying to compare them. Helpless, although I remember it very firmly, I didn't look carefully at the time.

Qin Yiheng also stared at the black shadow motionlessly, neither of us said anything. The black shadow was also motionless, as if staring at us. I even wondered if this thing was the shadow of something nearby, not filth at all. But this wilderness is simply an empty area.

It lasted five or six minutes, maybe because I was too nervous, I felt that the time was stretched. Anyway, after a while, the shadow actually started to move. At first, it just trembled slightly. At first I thought it was a hallucination or my eyes were dazzled. Afterwards, the range of motion of the shadow unexpectedly increased, as if he was slowly squatting down, but he shrank into a ball anyway.

This time I looked at it very carefully. Although the shadow has no clear division of limbs, it always looks like a layer of frosted glass. If I insist on describing it, it looks a bit like a water shadow. However, the general movement can still be distinguished, at least from the outline. The shadow is indeed squatting down, or kneeling down.

What the hell do you mean? Come to worship me and kneel down for me? It didn't look like it, so I squinted at Qin Yiheng, and I didn't know if I could open my mouth to ask questions now, so I just turned my face and continued to think. After looking at it for a while, the shadow trembled again, and I felt a little uneasy. Because I suddenly realized that his movement is so similar to the movement of starting before the 100-meter race. Damn, it wouldn't be preparing for a run-up, would it

Now I couldn't calm down anymore, so I quickly squeezed Qin Yiheng's hand, trying to remind him. He also shook my hand vigorously to remind me to calm down. Then, he suddenly let out a soft "ah", like a sigh, and a bit like a sigh.

I turned my head and glanced at him. His eyes were wide open, and I didn't know what he saw. I turned my head, and the shadow didn't move, still maintaining the same posture.

I still wondered how scary it was, so I looked at it for a while, and I realized that although the shadow didn't move, it seemed to be getting bigger, at least a third bigger than when I first saw it. This is because it didn't stand up. If it stood up, it would be two meters high!

My palms began to sweat non-stop. Fortunately, the shadow did not continue to grow larger, but disappeared suddenly after a while, without any signs at all, which made me wonder if it really appeared.

Qin Yiheng cleared his throat and said, "Now I can move. Take the shovel, and let's dig out the plaster statue. Be careful not to break it!"

This is another test of my physical fitness. Fortunately, I still go to exercise occasionally, or I will be paralyzed from exhaustion tonight. Fortunately, the soil was not filled very solidly, so Qin Yiheng poured some liquid into it, and the digging was easier than the first time, but he had to be careful not to break the plaster statue by accident, which would take more time. It took more than half an hour until the plaster statue was dug out and placed on the ground.

Qin Yiheng walked around the plaster statue, thought for a while, and asked me to take a flashlight to take a good light. He carefully began to smash the plaster statue's body bit by bit.

As he knocked, I wondered, the shadow just now probably came out of this plaster statue. Is this a container? With doubts, I was very curious to smash the plaster statue and see if I would find anything.

Needless to say, I was not disappointed. Qin Yiheng had just smashed an arm, and something like a thread or a rope was exposed from the plaster statue. The thing is not thick, even with a flashlight, it is hard to see clearly. Qin Yiheng was stunned for a moment, and actually sped up, smashing the plaster statue into pieces with a few drastic blows, then cleaned up the debris and debris, and pulled out the thing.

Qin Yiheng lifted the thing up, looked it up and down several times, and said "I rely on it", which means that this thing is not a simple object. I took a few glances, but I didn't find anything special. It was longer than I expected, and it was more cumbersome. There were many knots and buckles. It looked like many roots were connected together. It's a bit like a fishing net, but it's not that complicated. At best, it's just a semi-finished hammock.

What is this? For fishing? When I asked Qin Yiheng, he just said "hmm" and told me to pack my things, use the soil I dug out before, dry clean my hands, and choose damp soil, and I will talk about everything when I go back to his house.

I had to do as I did, picked some soil that still had moisture, and rubbed it briefly, which made my hands sticky and disgusting. While I was washing my hands, Qin Yiheng sorted out my things, disassembled the long pole I found in the plaster statue and put it in a bag, and finally put the stone that smashed the plaster statue upright. On top of the mound we dug out, take me back.

It was Qin Yiheng who drove the car back, and he didn't speak on the way. I was afraid that he would be distracted, so I didn't bother him. After I entered his house, collapsed on the sofa and drank a few mouthfuls of water, I asked him what happened tonight.

Qin Yiheng opened a can of beer, sat on the sofa and took a sip, but asked me if I saw that shadow.

I nodded, and when he saw me nodding, he asked me again, what was that shadow like

When I heard him ask this question, I recalled it. As for what it looked like, I really didn't see it. My deepest impression was that the shadow squatted down and became bigger.

I answered Qin Yiheng, who nodded in satisfaction and said, "Originally, I lost money crazily today, and my luck was bad, in order to deal with the situation tonight, and to see if I could have some communication with this filth. It's just very It's a pity, before I was ready, this filth was taken away by the little ghost who came to seduce the soul."

What he said made me speechless. To sum it up, it was just six simple words: 50,000 yuan wasted in vain. But up to now, it can only be like this.

I asked him, "The shadow has always been inside this plaster statue?"

Qin Yiheng replied very happily: "I don't know. I can't tell whether this thing was banned in the early morning, or sneaked in later. Anyway, no matter which one it is, this shadow is related to this thing." Said After that, he opened the bag, took out the thing he found from the plaster statue, and spread it out on the coffee table as much as possible, "I can't tell you what this thing is called, but the purpose is obvious. The meridians that people made for this plaster statue are embedded in the plaster statue.”

This is a meridian? If he hadn't told me, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to figure it out if I had eight heads!

I stood up and looked at this thing carefully, and after what he said, I could see a little bit. After the meridian is spread out, it is not difficult to find that it is obviously made according to a person's body structure, with longer limbs and shorter head and tail. But this is not right, why does this meridian have a tail? Although it's not long, it's clearly sticking out together. Is this a man

I pointed to the extra piece below and asked Qin Yiheng: "The plaster statue has obvious gender characteristics. Is this piece the job?"

But he shook his head, stood up, pointed at the spot I was pointing at, and said word by word: "This is the crux of the problem. This is the tail, because this meridian is not human."

Qin Yiheng continued to tell me that at first, he couldn't think so far, but because he saw the filth, he was able to conclude. The reason why it grows bigger and touches the ground on all fours is because what is attached to the plaster statue, that is, this meridian, is not human filth at all, but a horse.
