I hurriedly looked at my own shadow subconsciously. The light in the room was very bright, so I couldn't see clearly. I thought about it, and felt that this was really outrageous.
If it is true what Qin Yiheng said, since he is afraid of being found without a shadow, why bother to open a skylight on the roof of the house
Moreover, how can people have no shadow? There are many rumors that ghosts have no shadows, but since they have all become ghosts, what are they doing together with people
I discussed it with Qin Yiheng and wanted him to explain it more clearly, but he told me that there are only so many guesses at present. As for what happened, we are not the parties involved, so we will definitely not know.
However, he reasoned a bit, the reason for doing this is probably that the old man did it on purpose, the skylight on the roof may be some kind of restraint, if the person who needs to hide the shadow is not good for the old man, this is also a guarantee .
And the reason why the person who brought us here is so concerned about holding umbrellas is probably also deliberately arranged by the old man. He probably said something alarmist. He did this to confuse everyone and make it easier for him to achieve his goal.
Hearing what he said, I also had a picture in my mind: a group of people holding umbrellas conspired with the old man in the hat in this house. It felt like attending a funeral. Anyway, the picture I imagined was very weird. It's not a fucking cult, is it
I lit another cigarette, took a few puffs, and then I remembered to ask Qin Yiheng, why he was so nervous to find tooth marks before, because what he just told me was evil, but it was nothing Big deal, not life threatening.
When asked, he told me that when he saw the teeth on the umbrella before, he didn't think in the direction of the disordered teeth at first. Because in metaphysical alchemy, there is a game called "biting night". The reason for this "bite the night" is very big, to choose the teeth of those who are dying of pain. Because when people are in pain, they will instinctively want to bite things, so the effect of this kind of teeth is the best. Then at midnight every day, draw teeth marks on my bedside. It is said that after this kind of tooth marks are painted, do not let people check them after dawn. When it gets dark again, you will see more tooth marks beside the tooth marks you painted. That night, when I fall asleep with this tooth in my mouth, I will dream of some strange reminders, which are used to find Tai Sui.
Qin Yiheng said that he hadn't tried it before, so he never got a glimpse of the mystery. He only knew the general process, but one thing is certain, that is, this situation is very hurtful, because this person who fell asleep with his teeth in his mouth, the next day You also need to pull out one of your own teeth, otherwise you will bring about great disasters, and these disasters are very violent, such as fires.
This may still be related to Tai Sui. Tai Sui, broadly speaking, can be used as a title or a general reference in metaphysics, but in detail, Tai Sui is actually a very wonderful thing that says animals are not animals, and plants are not plants. According to legend, if you eat it, you will prolong your life, and if you eat the refined Tai Sui, you will live forever. In ancient times, those emperors who sought longevity were mostly looking for this thing. According to legend, this Tai Sui cannot be bitten with teeth, but can only be swallowed. Because people's teeth will come into contact with many impurities in the world, if the teeth are stained, Tai Sui will lose their spirituality.
This refined Tai Sui is not a simple thing. To describe it in human terms, it is very cunning and vengeful. Therefore, if you use "biting the night" to find it, Tai Sui will make a fuss when he notices it.
However, this is just a legend. There are only a handful of people who can see Tai Sui in their lifetime, let alone the perfect Tai Sui.
That's why he was very nervous when he first discovered the teeth. After all, we came here very rashly this time, and we didn't make enough investigation and preparation beforehand. He was afraid that this would be a trap similar to "biting the night", and he would turn around one by one. If we don't pay attention, the two of us will be buried in the sea of flames, which is really not worth the candle.
Now that we have figured out the reason behind the teeth, the next step is to get down to business: watch the house, after all, we also came here with a purpose.
After smoking the cigarette, Qin Yiheng and I began to carefully check from room to room in the house. It was only a cursory look before, but after this investigation, I found that this house is indeed very large, and there are seven or eight dust marks of the "one household for all people" that I saw before in many rooms.
I searched the house, but found nothing new, not even the shadow of the wardrobe. Qin Yiheng also frowned, and said: "There is nothing unclean in the house, it is undoubtedly a standard private house."
Hearing what he said made me even more puzzled. The old man in the hat asked us to come all the way here. He really wants to do business with us
After thinking about it, I thought it was still impossible, so I asked him, what should I do now, this house is definitely not acceptable, and it is clear that I will lose money!
Qin Yiheng looked around, thought for a while, and suddenly seemed to understand something, and said, "Turn off all the lights in the house."
The house is indeed very big, and it took a lot of work for both of us to turn off all the lights. After turning off the lights, the two returned to the living room and looked at it, both of them were surprised.
That night, at first the stars were bright and the moon was dark, but at this moment, I don’t know if God helped us, it turned into a moon and a few stars. The house itself is located in a remote town, and there are no street lights and neon lights around, and there is no pollution. The moon is surprisingly bright, and the light is naturally surprisingly good. When the lights are turned off, the moonlight shines in through the skylight. . However, the moonlight hitting the ground is different from what we imagined.
Because these skylights are all octagonal, it stands to reason that the moonlight on the ground should also be octagonal. Even if it is deformed due to angle problems, it should at least be similar to an octagonal shape, but the moonlight on the ground is a bit like an octagonal shape. It doesn't matter!
The shape of these lights is hard to describe, it looks messy, according to my intuitive feeling, it looks like a ball of noodles.
At first I thought it was just a coincidence that there were clouds floating over the house, but when I looked up, I felt a shiver in my heart.
Because I don't know when, the skylight in the living room was randomly brushed with a similar brush or something dipped in paint, so the light on the ground has such an effect.
At this time, all the lights in the house were turned off. Although there was moonlight shining in, I was still so nervous that my legs were weak.
When I checked with Qin Yiheng just now, the skylight was very clean, but now, it is obviously tampered with.
I thought to myself, while we were chatting in the study, someone went to the room? But neither of us noticed it at all!
I couldn't help but start to break out in a cold sweat, and the other party wiped the glass without anyone noticing it. If they wanted to attack us two, it would definitely not be difficult to wipe our necks! Besides, this is probably a trap. After all, according to normal logic, no one would go to the roof in the middle of the night.
I leaned against Qin Yiheng, wanting to ask him what he thought. Apparently he also found something wrong with the skylight. After looking at it for a while, he walked directly under the skylight, looked up, looked for a while, bent down again, touched the ground illuminated by the light with his hand, and asked me, see Do these lights look familiar
I was taken aback by his question, and after a few more glances, I didn't recognize anything, so I asked him, what on earth is this
Qin Yiheng stretched out his hand to make a gesture, and said, "Do you remember the seal given by the old man in the hat? This light is the same as the thing engraved under the seal, and it is a spell to suppress the soul and suppress evil."
I heard that it was a mantra, so I took a closer look, but I was so blind that I didn't recognize it.
However, I am very surprised, let alone who painted it, but at least he must have a purpose, right
Now I recognize that this is a soul-suppressing spell, and the name doesn't sound like a harmful game.
When I asked Qin Yiheng, he also shook his head and told me that he had been thinking too, but he couldn't see the other party's intentions, so he could only look carefully from room to room to see if he could find any clues.
This time we checked the house and we did not separate, because we were afraid that someone would plot against us. Both of them were on guard all the time, which made me a little uneasy, and when I followed them around, I didn't stop to watch.
There are quite a few rooms in the house itself, and it really took a lot of effort for the two of us to check it out in such a carpet-like manner. But I turned around again, and still didn't get anything.
In the end, Qin Yiheng decided to try to move all the moving things to see if he could find anything. So, the two of them started working again and did physical work.
Fortunately, the old man didn't have any electrical appliances left at home, and he probably took them with him when he moved out. Apart from a microwave oven and a refrigerator in the kitchen, there was nothing to move.
We took out all the appliances, saw nothing but dust, and started moving the furniture around the house one by one.
The furniture is all authentic mahogany, very heavy, we were so tired from moving around, we finally finished the living room, smoked a cigarette for a little rest, and we went to the bedroom.
