Mysterious resurgence

The paper man standing on this deserted winding mountain road is not the real Liu San, but just one of his paper men.

Facing Liu San's paper figures, Yang Jian couldn't tell which one was real and which one was fake.

But whether true or false, all paper figures are managed by Liu San.

"Yang Jian, I'm really sorry for making you make a special trip."

Liu San in front of him said with a hint of apology: "As you can see, I had a small problem here. All the paper figures were used, but the problem was not solved. Instead, I had an accident. Now I All the paper figures scattered in the mountains and forests have lost the ability to move."

After speaking, he pointed to his feet; "I can't walk anymore."

"He was cursed by a supernatural being and was nailed to the spot?" Yang Jian said.

Liu San said: "This matter is related to our last conversation. Do you remember that I told you that there used to be a charity village in the area under my jurisdiction? It was left over from the Republic of China. Although it has long been abandoned, But everyone who lives nearby knows that there used to be an old man living in that yizhuang. The old man had no name, and people around him only knew him as the corpse-keeper."

"Some supernatural rumors from the Republic of China period aroused my curiosity, and I began to investigate the corpse keeper, and finally I found clues."

"There is an old wooden house in this mountain. This is the place where the corpse guard last appeared."

Yang Jian continued to listen to him.

Liu San said: "However, I was attacked by a supernatural being when I set foot in that old house. I was trapped in that old house. The paper figures who were coming to support were also affected and lost their ability to move one by one. I I suspect that the old house is a trap, and anyone who sets foot in it will encounter danger and accidents."

"But the old house is hidden in the mountains and forests and is inaccessible. I suspect that this trap was set up specifically for people looking for the body keeper. However, I have no evidence now because I have been disconnected for a while. What exactly happened in the old house? What happened I can’t know now.”

"So, you were so careful and used so many paper figures, or did you overturn?" Yang Jian glanced at the strange paper figures standing motionless in the forest.

Apparently.

Liu San also came prepared and prepared a sufficient number of paper figures to find the corpse guard.

Liu Sandao: "I was careless. After several paper figures set foot in the old house and lost contact, I took the risk to do it myself. The old house was very weird and I didn't sense danger. Now that I think about it, my perception of the supernatural is on the contrary. To some extent, it interfered with my judgment and caused me to misjudge the situation.”

"Where is the old house? My ghost domain just covered this area, but I couldn't find the old house you mentioned." Yang Jian asked.

"You need the right road to reach the right place. This is a supernatural place that cannot be sensed by the ghost realm. You can see the old house by following my guidance."

As he spoke, Liu San, who was standing on the road in front of him, stretched out his hand and pointed towards the hillside.

Yang Jian looked up and set off immediately. He walked directly up the hillside and entered the woods, walking along Liu San's direction.

The woods were dense and overgrown, but these did not have any impact on him.

Ghost shadows covered the surroundings, and all the vegetation was making way for him.

After leaving for a while.

There was also a paper man standing behind a nearby tree. The paper man stretched out his arm and pointed to the left.

"Captain Yang, come this way." The paper man spoke, and it was Liu San's voice.

Yang Jian changed direction and continued walking.

After walking to the left for a while, he soon saw a paper man standing on the branch of a tree. He continued to stretch out his arm and point to the road: "This way."

Yang Jian nodded, changed direction again and walked towards the guided position.

Obviously, Liu San was very cautious when approaching the ancient house, leaving paper figures at intervals to ensure that everything around him was under his control.

soon.

Under the guidance of paper figures in the woods, Yang Jian unknowingly embarked on a strange path.

This is a road paved with yellow mud, and it is still a little muddy when you step on it. Every step you take will be stained with a lot of yellow mud, and you can't shake it off.

"This is not normal yellow mud. There is a supernatural atmosphere in it, similar to a medium. Only by stepping on this yellow mud road can you go to the right place. If there is no such yellow mud under your feet, then no matter how you walk, it will be impossible. There’s no way to get there.”

Yang Jian lowered his head and looked thoughtful.

Moreover, he had encountered similar conditions on this yellow mud road before.

That was when he was at the ghost post office. He took a supernatural bus to deliver a letter to an ancient house. Behind the ancient house was a yellow mud road leading deep into the forest. At the end of the road were several strange old tombs.

Looking back on that experience now, Yang Jian still has lingering fears.

But it was different from the dangers I experienced before.

Nothing dangerous happened on this road.

Every once in a while on the yellow mud road, there is a paper figure of Liu San standing there.

"Captain Yang, it's just ahead. We'll be here soon. You have to be careful." Liu San's paper man continued to remind Yang Jian to be vigilant and avoid any accidents.

Yang Jian didn't find Liu San's repeated reminders annoying, but he remembered these words and acted very vigilantly.

As I continued walking along the yellow mud path, the surrounding trees became unfamiliar and the light continued to dim. In just a few moments, everything nearby had changed drastically. It was no longer the lush mountain top. , but completely entered an unknown and strange place.

soon.

When Yang Jian stopped, he arrived.

This is an old wooden house. The old house is not big, with only two floors, and it is already a bit old. The wood has a dark color, as if it has been exposed to wind and sun for a long time.

It is not uncommon for such old houses to be located in mountainous areas. There are still such old houses in many remote places, and there are even people living there.

"Yang Jian."

A paper figurine of Liu San's was left at the door of the old house. This paper figurine stood there motionless and did not set foot in the old house, so the contact was not lost.

"You are trapped in such an old wooden house?" Yang Jian frowned, trying to peek at everything in front of him.

no doubt.

There is indeed supernatural interference in the old wooden house, blocking his ghostly eyes from prying.

"I personally think there shouldn't be any problems with me inside, but it still takes some time to resolve such a matter. So it's not that I don't want to attend the meeting at the headquarters, but that I really can't get away." Liu San sighed. road.

"I speculate that the corpse keeper has probably died in this old house, and the evil spirit has revived. I should be entangled with the evil spirit inside."

Yang Jian said: "I don't have time for you to waste here. I'll go in and take you out. You can deal with the supernatural events here later."

"That's enough, thank you." said the paper man at the door.

Yang Jian didn't talk nonsense. Water stains appeared under his feet, and then the water stains gradually grew larger, as if they had turned into a bottomless pool.

next moment.

The water splashed.

A golden hair-splitting spear was rushed up.

Yang Jian grabbed it, opened his ghost eyes, and strode into the ancient house.

Once inside.

The surrounding light seemed to have completely disappeared, a darkness came from all directions like a tide, the air was filled with a putrid, damp smell, and some strange movements were vaguely heard in the house.

The supernatural is filled in every corner here.

Although Yang Jian's ghost realm cannot affect this place, his ghost eyes can still ignore the thick darkness here and see everything around him clearly.

“The layout of the house hasn’t changed.”

He looked around.

The layout of the house outside is the same as the layout inside, and has not changed due to the appearance of supernatural powers.

But Liu San didn't seem to be in the hall. It was empty and there was nothing.

Yang Jian went to the left room and took a look. There were some useless dry firewood and abandoned farm tools piled in the left room, but there was nothing else.

He frowned and went to the right room to look again.

There is a bed in the room, but the bedding has long been moldy, covered with thick moss, black and rotten.

"No problem."

After observing it, there was nothing unusual.

Yang Jian strode towards the back of the hall.

At the back is the kitchen.

It has also been abandoned for a long time, but there is a wooden ladder next to the stove. This ladder is set up there and becomes a road leading to the second floor.

"So Liu San is on the second floor?"

Yang Jian listened and found that there were indeed some movements on the second floor, but he couldn't tell what the movements were.

It seemed like someone was walking or someone was tapping on the floor, but the sound had no pattern or rhythm.

He hesitated.

Yang Jian did not go upstairs on the ladder because he was worried that he would be attacked by a ghost.

His ghost shadow covered him, and he walked up the wall in an incredible way.

soon.

He came to the second floor.

It was very empty here, with only some inconspicuous clutter. There was a coffin placed in the middle of the second floor.

The style of this coffin is very familiar. He has seen it before, in Huanggang Village, in ancient houses, and in Taiping Ancient Town. However, this coffin is not red, but black.

The black coffin represents danger, while the red coffin represents safety.

Because the black coffins I encountered before contained either ghosts or ghosts from the ghost lake, which were so fierce that it made people feel scary.

"Still not seeing the ghost, nor Liu San, then the only possibility is that the ghost is in the coffin and Liu San is also in the coffin." Yang Jian walked to the coffin and put a hand on the black coffin.

A cold feeling spread along his arms, making his dead body feel chilly.

"It's really a troublesome thing. What kind of ancient house is this? This is a ghost house. Liu San is really good at finding places. He can find this place so secretly. This ghost house is placed here to make it clear that he doesn't want anyone to find it. Found it." Yang Jian thought to himself.
