After a sudden buzzing in my head, I quickly calmed down and responded in a cold voice: "You dare to hang yourself, you dare to do it, I don't care how I die!"
I'm convinced that if Ye Sanqi is hanging me, she won't dare to kill me. Otherwise, she won't have to solve any puzzles and just wait to be wiped out!
At the time, I didn't know why I could calm down so quickly.
Later, the Ninth Prince told me: In fact, your situation is very common. When people face a sudden crisis, there are only two situations. One is that their minds are blank, and they will listen to what others say. The other is very calm, and the more dangerous the external situation is, the calmer he becomes. This kind of person is not uncommon. If you are lucky, there will be one in ten people. If you are not lucky, there may be two or three in a hundred people. You belong to the latter category.
If you think about it carefully, the Ninth Prince is right.
The hanged man was so angry that he was shaking all over. He took a few breaths before calming down and said as calmly as possible: "Brother, we are cooperating now. If something happens, of course we have to take care of each other. Do you think so?" "
I stretched out my hand and tapped on the hanging man’s arm: “Just taking care of each other like this?”
The hanged ghost said helplessly: "You have also seen that I have no toes, and there is no beam on my head. I can't hang my neck, and my feet can't touch the ground. After flying in the air for a while, I have to find a place to rest. In the well Where is the place to hang me? I have no choice but to let you carry me for a while."
What the hanged ghost said is also true. The ghost transformed by the hanged person is usually unable to move too far from the place of death because it is bound by a rope. Even if he is summoned by a magician using secret methods, he still has to find a place with beams.
At this time, I didn't want to argue too much with the hanged ghost, so I simply changed the subject: "You said, there are ghosts here? Where are the ghosts?"
"Wait until I summon them out!" The Hanged Ghost roared at my back. The dark air suddenly rose in the cellar. Strands of black hair fell down from the ceiling of the cellar. Human arms were also protruded from the three walls of the cellar. and toes, at first glance, it looks like countless ghosts are breaking away from the barrier of the netherworld and stepping into the human world through the small cellar.
I immediately tightened my concealed weapon: "So many ghosts?"
The Hanged Ghost whispered: "Including the butler, there are only nine of them. You can handle it if you are careful."
nine?
But I clearly saw a dozen arms and toes!
I suddenly woke up: "Those people were cut into pieces?"
"Yes!" said the Hanged Ghost: "Those blood bricks are made of their flesh and blood. This kind of ghost is too violent, but they can't come out. This cellar can trap souls."
"Then we can't get in either!" When I stared at the skeleton in the corner of the cellar, the ghost of the housekeeper also appeared near the skeleton, huddled in the corner with his head in his arms, and kept muttering: "Don't kill me." I... don't kill me... Every wrong has its owner, and every debt has its owner. The person who killed you is the young master, not me, so don't kill me."
I couldn't help but raise my eyebrows and whispered to the hanged man: "Can you drag the housekeeper out?"
"You can't pull them out!" The Hanged Ghost said: "The cellar is the territory of those dead people. None of us can get in. Don't you know the Qimen Formation? If you set up an formation to separate them, maybe you can still Bring the butler out!"
I really want to say: I know shit formations!
While the two of us were talking, those fragmented body parts had formed eight complete ghosts, which turned out to be eight young women.
Eight women with blood all over their bodies turned around at the same time, looking at me and the Hanged Man with hateful eyes.
The women didn't move, but their resentment surged towards me like a tide, and I couldn't help but feel chills.
The hanged ghost said in a trembling voice: "The young master of the Mu family killed so many young women? Wasn't Shiqing also killed by him?"
"Yes, it must be!" The Hanged Man analyzed: "The young master of the Mu family must have killed Shiqing. Shiqing could not accept this reality. Before his death, his spirit was greatly stimulated, and he forgot that he died. Whose hands fell into it. Yes, that must be the case..."
The more the hanged man thought about it, the more he thought it was right: "Let's go find Shiqing and tell her that we already know the cause of her death."
The Hanged Man grabbed my hair and wanted me to go out. I grabbed the Hanged Man's arm and said, "If you want to die, go and do it yourself. Don't drag me!"
The hanged ghost said slightly angrily: "What do you mean?"
I asked back: "What evidence do you have that Master Mu was the murderer of Shiqing? If you can produce evidence, that's fine. But if you can't, Shiqing will kill you on the spot. I won't go looking for death with you."
"These people..." He stopped midway through his words. Even if these women died in the hands of Master Mu, it would not prove that Master Mu killed Shi Qing.
When a woman falls in love with a man, she will instinctively defend him. Even if the person who bullies or belittles the man is her friend or relative, she will defend him without hesitation. Unless she doesn't love that man, she will be indifferent.
No matter who it is, without absolute evidence, tell Shiqing: The person who killed you was Master Mu. They will all be killed by poetry on the spot.
The hanged man had no choice now: "Then what do you think we should do?"
I looked at the eight female ghosts and said, "Do you want to take revenge? If so, I can let you out and go find Master Mu together."
The Hanged Ghost was startled by me: "Are you crazy? Those are eight evil ghosts! It's hard to deal with any one of them. Are you going to let them all go?"
"Shut up!" I was so angry at being hanged. When she hanged herself, it wasn't her neck that was strangled, but her brain, right?
Didn't I say that? Do I still need to tell those eight female ghosts: Please let the housekeeper go, do I have something to do with him?
Even if the housekeeper is not the murderer of these eight women, he is also an accomplice of Master Mu in destroying the bodies and destroying the traces. As long as I dare to say that they are released, I am afraid that I will never be able to talk to the housekeeper in this life.
The leading female ghost said: "Why should I trust you?"
I said: "You want to seek revenge from Master Mu, and I want to ask Master Mu some questions. The man has been found, and I have finished asking all the questions that need to be asked. What does it have to do with me whether you kill him or not?"
"But, if I don't help you break the restrictions here, you will never be able to get out, let alone get revenge."
The female ghost shook her head and said, "I don't believe you!"
"Okay, if you don't believe me, I won't talk nonsense to you. See you later!" I turned around and walked outside. Before I took a few steps, I heard the female ghost shouting: "Wait a minute!"
"You want me to believe you, unless you come in and talk to us."
walk into?
Let me stand among eight evil ghosts?
If they make a move, I will be surrounded by enemies from all sides and I won’t be able to run away even if I want to.
Besides, once I am in danger in the cellar, it is still unknown whether the hanged man outside will come to help me. This is asking me to gamble my life!
