The torrential rain washes over the deserted island, and the strong wind blows up the rotten smell of the soil.
But when Gu Jun stepped through the gate and took a step into the area belonging to the ancient house, he immediately smelled another peculiar smell, just like the one he smelled in that cave, like ten thousand different rotten things Mixed together, it is the smell of corpses where ghouls live.
The light in the house was very dim, and the floor, walls, and windows were all covered with thick dust.
Holding a kerosene lamp, he looked around the front hall, which looked like a residence of a wealthy family, with some exquisite and weird art-like things placed there. He couldn't recognize what style it was, but it felt a little familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere...
He asked Wu Shiyu's opinion, but she also shook her head: "There is no obvious style type, maybe I don't know it."
It doesn't look like an ornament in their world, it's not an animal or something concrete, it's such an abstract shape that it's hard for them to describe it.
The two walked carefully around the first floor of the house. There was a vestibule and stairs in front, a living room on both sides, and a kitchen and bathroom in the back. They searched carefully and found nothing unusual, just like a broken house that had not been moved or stolen, but had been abandoned for a long time.
Finally, they returned to the front hall. Gu Jun looked at the wooden stairs leading to the second floor, and then walked over.
Da, da... Gu Junfang walked lightly, but when he stepped on the old stair treads, the overwhelmed stairs still made a slight creaking sound.
However, the stairs did not collapse, and they went up to the vestibule on the second floor, facing a floor-to-ceiling window, the window glass was hazy from the heavy rain outside.
"The door of that room is open..." Wu Shiyu whispered, and Gu Jun also saw that the door of the room at the end of the corridor on the left was open, but it was still covering the back, and only a sliver of darkness leaked through the gap.
They approached slowly and vigilantly, Gu Jun held the lamp in his left hand, and the long knife in his right hand was ready to chop off at any moment...
When there were still a few steps away from the door, Wu Shiyu pulled his bow and shot an arrow towards the door, Da! The arrow pushed the door open, and the light from the kerosene lamp shone in.
Suddenly, both of them could see the scene in that room. Gu Jun's heart twitched, and he saw human corpses placed there, including old people, young adults, young girls, and children... Some of them were standing there, some were sitting there.
The appearance of these people is different from Homo sapiens, and their facial features are more slender. If they were alive, they should also be very soft and beautiful.
But at this point they all just have weird, apparently embalmed skin of some kind, mouths sewn up into grins.
The smell of corpses came from this room.
"Hmm..." Wu Shiyu frowned, and the chaotic synaesthesia hit her mind.
Gu Jun thought of something even more, a chill surged up, his heart was wrapped in an unknown mist and ached.
This seems to be... Mr. Galder's home as mentioned in the watchman's diary.
This room is Mr. Gard's body collection room.
The sound of the wind and rain outside became louder, and his mind was in turmoil, but how could it be? Mr. Gard's house is in Wosang Town, a rural place in the different world, and this is the dream world... The different world is not the dream world, he knows it is not.
projection? phantom? The vicissitudes of life? Where was this island before
Mr. Gard and Uncle Dog are both ghouls, both in the dream world...
Feeling something suddenly, Gu Jun suddenly looked back at the front hall, it was still dim, and there was nothing. But the guard said in his diary that for half a month, he would see a black shadow standing in front of the window on the second floor every night, and it was later discovered that the shadow was not Mr. Gard.
"Did you feel it?" He asked Wu Shiyu, was he just suspicious.
"I... feel so chaotic..." She turned pale with pain, "This place is so chaotic, it seems that many things are closed..."
"Xianyu, stop, stop immediately!" Seeing this, Gu Jun immediately interrupted her induction, and when he was about to slap her on the head, Wu Shiyu shouted: "Follow the fate."
"Be careful, this room is doing something weird." He said something, and walked back to the front hall step by step.
Da, da, da, the sound of stepping on the wooden board is frightening.
He came all the way to the front of the floor-to-ceiling window, but still didn't find anything unusual, so he looked out of the window, through the blur caused by the rain... Suddenly, another chill rose all over his body, and the scene outside was different.
It is no longer dead woods and rotting soil, but lush woods and smooth roads, and there is a small temporary wooden shed in the distance.
In that wooden shed, there was a set of tables and chairs, and a young man stood beside him, holding a kerosene lamp, looking at the window here.
The young man also had the appearance of a foreigner. He looked about twenty-five or sixteen years old, and his expression seemed a little nervous.
This seems to be the caretaker.
At this time, the watchman withdrew his gaze, sat down on a chair in the wooden shed, and looked at the rain scene elsewhere.
"..." Gu Jun's heart twitched. Is this an illusion, an illusion created by the room? "Shiyu, come and take a look."
Wu Shiyu had been following behind him all the time, and he was shocked when he saw it. The scene changed, "That's Old Dog Uncle? Isn't he old enough?"
"He's not." Gu Junsi thought, she could see it too, "This may be an illusion... Let's go back to the first floor and have a look." It's hard to tell when the illusion started, he wanted to see the guard Can people also see them, and what will they say when they see them
At that moment, the two of them walked down the stairs and returned to the front hall on the first floor. The scene outside the door remained the same. The wooden shed was twenty meters away.
"Let's go out and talk to him." Gu Jun clenched the long knife in his hand, and was about to walk out of the gate when the cold rain came.
At the same time, the young guard in the wooden shed was already looking at this side, stood up hastily, and shouted: "Mr. Gard, you can't leave the house, you have been quarantined, please temporarily Stay indoors, Dr. Culop will be here in a few days."
Gu Jun's heart was even colder, and he froze his steps. Wu Shiyu asked suspiciously: "What is he talking about? Do you understand?"
"Understandable." Gu Jun said in a deep voice, the guards were speaking in a different language, this matter cannot be separated from the participation of the Afterlife Association.
"Mr. Gard?" The young guard was very vigilant, "What are you talking about? Who are you talking to?"
The two people standing side by side looked at each other, and they immediately understood that that person seemed to be able to only see him...
"I'm not Xiaopus-Garde." Gu Jun said, he raised his footsteps and was about to step out of the door, "Old Dog Uncle, what tricks are you playing? Come out!"
The guard became even more nervous. Seeing the long knife in the opponent's hand, the guard picked up some utensil from the table and shouted anxiously: "Mr. Gard, please abide by the isolation rules! This is for you Well, for the sake of Nathan, Dr. Kalop will be here in a few days!"
