I became more and more confused, "It wasn't done by the people involved in the incident? What does that mean?"

Before Zhuxuan could answer, Mr. Yang chased after him, sweating profusely. Seeing us standing solemnly in the old lady's bedroom, I immediately turned pale with shock.

"Oh, what are you... what are you doing!"

Zhuxuan noticed the old man, and immediately changed his sad face into a smile.

"Ah, it's nothing, it's nothing. Mr. Yang, this is my friend Gu Yu, don't look at him like this, but the exorcist priest I invited for you is here to exorcise ghosts and subdue demons."

Here we go again... Can't we change the rhetoric this time

Mr. Yang looked at me and narrowed his eyes suspiciously, "He? He looks like a college student. How could he be a ghost exorcist?"

Sure enough, even the words were exactly the same as yesterday.

So before the old gentleman had any more doubts, I spoke first.

"I know you will definitely have doubts. But I not only know that your wife suddenly suffered from a strange illness yesterday and now has a high fever, but I also know that if you don't take timely action, your wife's life will be in danger tonight." I said firmly .

As soon as the words came out, Mr. Yang was really shocked, and he was about to kneel down to me, but I quickly helped him up.

"The arrival of the living god, our old couple finally waited until this day!"

"No need." I really don't want to listen to the old man's next words again, "You just need to get a pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and let me draw a talisman to keep you safe. Zhuxuan and I can think about the rest of the matter. "

"Okay, okay, no problem!"

Just like yesterday, the old gentleman ran to get a pen, ink, paper and inkstone with great gratitude. And I skillfully drew a few apples on the paper, and threw the paper to the old man.

"This, this... apple?"

"I know. Just stick it on the four corners of the room." I said perfunctorily.

The old man looked at me, then at the talisman-like talisman paper, finally nodded, and hurried to paste it.

Zhu Xuan looked at me from the side and laughed out loud, "Puchi. Don't mention it, Gu Yu, you really have the demeanor of a charlatan."

I looked at Zhuxuan helplessly, "What time is it, why are you still making fun of me? What is going on with this repeated time, do you have an idea?"

Zhu Xuan nodded, sighed, and said, "Water stains."

"... water stains?" I was baffled.

"Do you still remember what I told you yesterday that there are water stains in the corners of this house?" Zhuxuan asked, "However, it hasn't rained at all in Yancheng recently. There is no air-conditioning washing machine on the other side of the wall. Household appliances that generate stagnant water, so where does the water come from?"

As he spoke, Zhu Xuan pointed to a corner of the wall. A water stain there is still exactly the same as yesterday.

"Then, what's going on?" I waited for Zhuxuan to give me an answer.

Zhu Xuan looked up at the window, then looked down at the water damage, "The walls of the house are close to the outside, there is no yard, and there is no leaking thing. Then there is only one explanation, it is raining outside now. "

I was dumbfounded at once, "Wait, what nonsense are you talking about? The weather outside is just right now."

"Don't believe it?" Zhu Xuan showed a smile, "If you don't believe it, let's ask."

I was even more baffled when I saw Zhuxuan yelling to the inner room, "Mr. Yang! Is it raining outside now?"

After a while, Mr. Yang poked his head out from the back room, as if wondering why this young man asked such an obvious question.

"Yeah, it's been cloudy and rainy for the past few days. It's been raining continuously all day today. Remember to take your rain gear when you leave."

Zhu Xuan showed a triumphant smile.

"Okay, we'll remember."

what happened? I couldn't help but start to doubt my eyes. I ran to the window and looked again and again, but no matter how I looked outside the window, it was a sunny day with the sun hanging high.

That's right, even if people's eyes can be deceiving, Zhuxuan and I didn't get wet at all when we came here. On the contrary, there was a lot of dust on the ground.

I looked at Zhuxuan, "What's going on? Do you already know?"

Zhu Xuan smiled and nodded, "The matter is very simple. It is raining at home, but it is sunny outside. The time and space of rainy days and sunny days are separated."

I thought of the old veterinarian's furnishing that seemed strange to me yesterday. The old stove, the refrigerator and furniture that have been out of date for a few years...

I was taken aback, "Are you saying... the old veterinarian's house we are in is not the current time and space at all?"

Zhu Xuan looked at me approvingly, "Not bad, our Gu Xiaoyu has also learned to think about this now."

I glared at him angrily, "What time is it, can you stop making fun of me and tell me what's going on?"

"Maybe it's 'him'." Zhu Xuan's expression became serious again, "First he used my sympathy to let me take over this commission, and then used the Nian beast to trap us, trapping us in a period of time in the past, There is no escape, no communication with the outside world."

When Zhu Xuan said this, I immediately remembered the phone call that I couldn't get through yesterday, and immediately felt cold all over. He took out his mobile phone and dialed Wen Jiubai's number.

However…

"Sorry, the number you dialed is empty..."

"It's useless, the phone will definitely fail." Zhu Xuan shook his head, "We are already in the past time now, and it is not so easy to contact the future Wen Jiubai."

"But why did Priest Ling Xiao do this?" I raised my head and asked, "Trapping us in a little veterinarian's little house? What's the point?"

"I don't know." Zhu Xuan shook his head and said, "But I'm afraid he originally wanted to attack Wen Jiubai. But he didn't expect that Wen Jiubai didn't come because of the investigation, and instead trapped the two of us. If we don't do something , we may be stuck here forever, and December 23rd will last forever."

An indescribable fear came over me.

"No, no!" I said excitedly, "We can just walk out like this, regardless of the veterinarian and his wife. Since you say this is the past time, it means that they may have died long ago Here, why should we help him investigate!"

"Then you can try it." Zhu Xuan said calmly.

I didn't do anything, and walked out the door as soon as I stepped over the threshold.

What's so great about this, as long as I walk out without hesitation—

Just then, a strange thing happened. My front foot stepped over the threshold, and my back foot landed inside the house. The moment I stepped out the door, I suddenly returned to the house.

"Look, I just said it." Zhu Xuan looked at me calmly.

I didn't believe in evil, and tried again, but it was still the same as last time, no matter how I walked, I would eventually return to the house.

"The person who trapped us definitely didn't want to simply trap us here. Otherwise, with his ability, there must be a much simpler method than this." Zhu Xuan thought, "He must have some purpose..."
