"What kind of hidden secret?" Liu Hao said angrily, "That's because... because this is the Cao family's house, and I promised Boss Cao to take good care of this house!"
"You have a lump in your head, right? What's more important, your life or your house?" I asked.
Liu Hao gritted his teeth, "Of course human life is important, but it's not that time now. Besides, with Mr. Wei here, what's there to be afraid of?"
After hearing this, Wei Dongting raised his head and looked calm.
"Perhaps Mr. Wei is panicking too, why can't you think about it for him?" I answered abruptly.
Wei Dongting frowned, "What are you talking about?"
"It's nothing, just don't panic." I changed the topic lightly, "This limelight is not right. What are you going to do?"
"You don't have to worry about this. If you're afraid, you can leave now." Wei Dongting said coldly.
"As a colleague, I still want to remind you." I shook my head, "This house is very weird, and the person in the coffin may not be the one causing trouble."
Wei Dongting snorted coldly and turned to Liu Hao, "Gather the people together and listen to my command!"
"That's right, you should dig three feet into the ground." I said.
Liu Hao said hurriedly, "No!"
"What?" Wei Dongting asked with a dark face.
"This..." Liu Hao wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, "When Boss Cao handed this house to me, he repeatedly told me that this house is very important and must not be tampered with."
"Call someone, listen to my orders!" Wei Dongting shouted.
Liu Hao hesitated to speak, but he did not dare to go against Wei Dongting's wishes and went to call the people over.
There was a sudden buzz around the mourning hall, and people in the house gathered around.
There were three sticks of incense stuck on the incense burner in front of the coffin. I took a puff of smoke as I passed by, and took advantage of the chaos to walk up behind Zhou Xiang and pat him on the shoulder.
Zhou Xiang was taken aback. The moment he turned around, I blew out a puff of cigarette.
The white smoke penetrated from his mouth and nose like a living thing.
Zhou Xiang trembled all over, his eyes suddenly turned white, and he stood there in a daze.
"You can go wherever you want." I said in a low voice in his ear.
Zhou Xiang slowly turned his body, and then began to move toward the southwest. His steps were stiff, his expression was numb, and he rolled his eyes as if he was sleepwalking.
Fortunately, there was a chaos of war and darkness at this time, so no one noticed him at all, otherwise he would probably be scared out of his mind.
This is called soul-inducing incense. After the incense smoke enters the body, it will make people feel sleepy and not sleep, entering a state similar to sleepwalking.
Zhou Xiang walked forward all the way, and I followed him step by step.
The howling wind in the house made people shudder, but it had no effect on Zhou Xiang at this time. He walked slowly at a weird pace, walked through a corridor, and stopped in front of a room door.
The light shone through the crack in the door, and I heard a cry of "ouch, ouch" coming from inside.
As soon as he heard this voice, he knew it was Mrs. Liu.
I patted the door and stepped aside.
"Who?" someone in the room shouted.
Then a man opened the door and came out. As soon as he glanced at him, he saw Zhou Xiang standing straight at the door with his eyes white. He was so frightened that he screamed and ran away from the door in a pee.
Hidden in the darkness, I saw Zhou Xiang slowly enter the room, and only heard Mrs. Liu scream, louder than the previous person.
I walked to the door and saw the old lady with her ears wrapped in gauze, her neck covered with various amulets, and her body covered with yellow paper talismans. She was huddled on the bed, shouting in fright.
Zhou Xiang, however, pushed towards her step by step.
I was a little surprised. I didn't expect that the old lady would be the first person Zhou Xiang came to see when he was in the soul-inducing state.
The old lady was so frightened that she rolled around on the bed and shouted, "Hao'er, Hao'er, come and save your mother!"
I looked around the room and noticed something unusual.
The four walls of this room, including the ceiling, are actually painted with huge spells. On the counter on the left is a Bodhisattva. Three sticks of incense are lit in front of the Bodhisattva statue, and the smoke is curling up.
Judging from the furnishings of the room, this should be Liu Hao's room.
The reason why the old lady was arranged here after she was injured was probably because in their opinion, this room would be safer as it was blessed by talismans and blessed by Bodhisattvas.
However, Zhou Xiang was only possessed by the soul-attracting incense now, and he was not a ghost. The various evil-suppressing objects in the room were of no use to him.
"Snapped!"
A sudden sound attracted my attention.
Upon closer inspection, the old lady was slapped by Zhou Xiang.
Generally speaking, all the actions of a person who is possessed by the soul-inducing incense are subconscious actions. The reason why Zhou Xiang slapped Old Mrs. Liu this time means that he has always wanted to do this, but he has been holding back. .
Amidst the screams of the old lady, Zhou Xiang slowly raised his hand and slapped her again, making the old lady cry for father and mother.
I'm a little curious. This old lady is indeed very disgusting, but what is it about Zhou Xiang that offends him and makes him hate her so much?
I stood aside and watched indifferently until the old lady fainted from the whipping, and then I stepped forward and patted the ring.
Zhou Xiang paused, turned around, walked to the head of the bed, and groped around slowly.
Suddenly I heard a click, as if some mechanism had been triggered, and then I saw a secret door opening on the wall where the Bodhisattva statue was placed.
Zhou Xiang got up and walked in through the secret door.
I followed him and passed through another door, followed by a staircase going down. After about ten meters, I came to an extremely dark basement.
There were several old-fashioned oil lamps hanging on the wall on the left, which were obviously used for lighting. However, the darkness had no effect on me. Zhou Xiang didn't use his eyes when he was in the soul-inducing state, so I didn't move.
After walking a little further, there are two rooms ahead.
The doors of these two rooms, one red and one white, look very strange.
Zhou Xiang walked all the way to the red door and stopped there.
I walked forward and found that both doors were iron doors, and the door panels were extremely heavy and thick, painted with red and white paint.
Beads of water condensed on the surface of the door panel, and the tentacles were bone-chilling, as if they had touched a piece of ice.
Zhou Xiang stood in front of the door, suddenly leaned forward and banged his forehead against the door.
Then there was another bang, and the force of the collision became stronger and stronger.
I don't think this person would be so stupid as to try to use his head to break open the iron door. The reason why the other party did this could only be a manifestation of his deep heart.
When do people have the urge to bang their heads against the wall?
