Shanhai Folklore Research Institute

The torrential rain outside did not stop, but intensified, with lightning and thunder, and raindrops crackling on the window panes.

Shen Qiming was very nervous. The living room at night was very different from that during the day, and I don't know if it was because the villa was too old. Several bulbs on the crystal chandelier were broken, so the light seemed a bit dim.

Hook Wei huddled with him, his eyes fluttering.

To be honest, Brother Wei is not very courageous, not because he is hypocritical but because of his nature, so in the research institute he is mainly responsible for financial and back office work, and will only be arrested when there are insufficient manpower.

Brother Wei snapped his fingers. Before the end of this month, he has already been out of the field five times. This also shows from the side that as the spiritual energy is gradually recovering, more and more monsters wake up from their deep sleep. Work has become more stressful.

A dazzling white light flashed, the living room lit up instantly and then quickly went dark, the furniture and furnishings cast heavy shadows on the walls and the ground, the thunder seemed to roll from the distant sky and explode above the two of them.

Shen Qiming was taken aback, and reflexively hugged Gouwei beside him, trembling, and Gouwei was so excited that his hairy tail was almost exposed.

Woo!

Brothers and sisters hugged each other and wept.

At this moment, Gouwei received a WeChat message from Wu Ting, asking him and Shen Qiming to sleep in the master bedroom on the second floor.

Brother Wei hesitated.

Living room and master bedroom.

Like chocolate-flavored shi and shi-flavored chocolate.

Gouwei scratched his head and asked Shen Qiming which one to choose, the little fat man hesitated and chose to stay, mainly because the psychological shadow brought by the master bedroom was too great.

Brother Wei nodded: "Okay, let's go to the master bedroom."

tong ax

Shen Qiming:? ? ?

So what's the point of asking him?

Brother Wei patted him on the shoulder and stood up.

Just kidding, the order given by the dean himself, even if he is to be used as a bait, he can only be followed, otherwise Wu Ting will first make him into a plush cushion without using those dirty things!

Shen Qiming had never seen the horror of Dean Wu, so he dawdled and refused to leave. Gouwei sighed, stared at him and said quietly: "Then you stay here alone."

As soon as the words fell, there happened to be a flash of lightning, and a few seconds later, there was a thunderstorm. Shen Qiming jumped up as if a spring had been installed under his buttocks. .”

The two quickly ran up to the second floor, pushed open the door of the master bedroom, and glanced at the decorative painting on the TV cabinet.

Brother Wei hadn't heard the little girl's laughter before, and the content of the painting looked very ordinary, even warm, so he thought about it and threw it in the corridor outside, then locked the door.

Shen Qiming praised him for his wit. It was almost ten o'clock at this time, and there were probably people from the research institute for company, and the painting was thrown out. The little fat man relaxed a little, and soon started snoring.

Hook Wei also closed his eyes and fell asleep after a while.

Lin Mian was awakened by a loud cry. He was only dazed for a second or two and soon remembered that he was in the Shen family's manor. He immediately sat up from the bed and subconsciously checked the time, it was twelve o'clock in the evening.

Wu Ting stood sideways at the door and listened carefully.

"Hee hee, ha ha ha..."

The little girl's silvery laughter echoed in the villa, making one's scalp tingle in the middle of the night. Lin Mian put on her shoes and walked lightly to Wu Ting's side.

Wu Ting and him looked at each other, and slowly opened the door, a coolness came in instantly.

Lin Mian was slightly surprised. The air conditioner was turned on in the room, so it should be colder than the corridor...

The corridor was pitch-black. Lin Mian pressed the power switch, but neither the ceiling light nor the wall light turned on.

broken?Tomorrow will be fine...

Lin Mian thought about turning on the flashlight of her phone.

"Damn it!" Shen Qiming and Gouwei stumbled out of the master bedroom one after the other.

In the son's room, Bian Changfeng poked his head out, with no sleepiness in his eyes, he grabbed Shen Qiming who was like a headless fly and dragged him behind him, then strode towards the master bedroom.

Xu Shan patted the little fat man's back reassuringly, while Gouwei on the side almost burst into tears when he saw Wu Ting and Lin Mian.

The door of the master bedroom was wide open. The closer he got to Lin Mian, the colder he felt. The summer actually gave him goosebumps. The small room seemed to be a huge refrigerator, continuously pumping out air conditioner.

"What a ghostly aura!" Xuanjizi and Zhang Maocai also went up to the second floor at some point, and the compass in the hands of the master of mystical arts turned into an afterimage, and Lin Mian was very worried that the jade spoon on it would fly out.

Xuanjizi encountered such a situation for the first time in more than [-] years in the industry, and felt a little nervous for a while, but seeing the fearless appearance of Bian Changfeng and Wu Ting in front of him, thinking that he must not show timidity, he puffed up his chest and followed behind.

The room was dark and cold, with the circular spot of the flashlight sweeping across, Lin Mian could roughly see the scene inside.

The bed was piled with quilts randomly, and other furniture stayed in place, including the "laughing painting".

Lin Mian looked at Gouwei and Shen Qiming in surprise. Brother Wei seemed to guess what he was thinking, and hurriedly said, "Before I went to bed, I was worried that the painting would be messed up again, so I put it in the corridor, but in the middle of the night, this thing came back again. came back."

God knows that when Gouwei opened his eyes and saw the painting, he was terrified, wishing he could fake death on the spot.

"Haha, hehehe, ha..." The laughter rang out again. Lin Mian carefully discerned it, but found that it was not coming from the painting, but in another room.

There was doubt in everyone's eyes, and they all looked at Shen Qiming in unison.

The little fat man swallowed hard: "No, I did hear laughter from the painting the first two times, and it was the same just now, ask Brother Wei if you don't believe me!"

Hook Wei nodded at the right time: "That's right, when we were first woken up, the laughter was indeed in the painting, but I didn't pay attention to it later when I was so busy running."

Lin Mian frowned slightly, Wu Ting was thoughtful.

"Alas..." The heavy sigh seemed to be close to the ears, and also seemed to be in the corridor, the hairs on the backs of Shen Qiming and the others stood up.

Different from the little girl's crisp smile, this sigh was very long, obviously belonging to an adult, or an adult ghost.

The corner of the second uncle Bian Changfeng's mouth curled up slightly, and he raised a wicked smile, and then his body flashed, yes, it really flashed, and disappeared in place.

Shen Qiming shrank behind Xushan, just in time to see this scene, his face was suddenly blank: Where is the person?What about the big Director Bian?

In the next second, there was a shrill scream from far away in the corridor, and everyone immediately ran to follow the sound.

The originally crowded master bedroom suddenly became much more empty. Lin Mian was half a step behind and bumped his head against Wu Ting, only then did he notice that the dean was still in the room.

Wu Ting had no intention of leaving, he walked towards the decorative painting on the TV cabinet without haste, and touched the surface of the canvas lightly with his fingers, there was no other abnormality except that it was a little cold.

Dean Wu seemed very regretful. He turned around and called his assistant to leave the room. Lin Mian obediently followed behind. The corner of his eye inadvertently glanced at the painting, and then he saw a scene he would never forget.

The content of the painting was originally a corner of a light-colored room with a chest of drawers and a white rose flower arrangement, but at this moment Lin Mian saw a face printed on the wall in the painting. This face was somewhat familiar, twisted and deformed. Six narrow eyes stared at him sullenly.

Lin Mian's footsteps stopped suddenly. He thought he was dazzled, so he blinked vigorously, but the face was still there, and the lipless mouth was split open, revealing sharp fangs.

Just as Lin Mian was about to remind Wu Ting, the dean stretched out his hand towards the painting with lightning speed, and the fiery red light lingered on his fingertips.

The smile on Gui's face disappeared, and Wu Ting seemed to understand that this guy wanted to escape, and his bony fingers instantly pierced through the decorative painting.

There was a weird neighing sound, which made Lin Mian's eardrums hurt. Wu Ting poked his face and blinded both eyes, but he managed to escape.

Wu Ting shook off the sticky unknown liquid on his hands, and Lin Mian took a tissue from the bedside table and handed it to him.

"What is this?" Lin Mian stared at the decorative painting, and found that the canvas was still in good condition and not damaged, feeling very miraculous.

"I'm not sure yet, but I guess it will be soon." Wu Ting wiped his fingers carefully. There are quite a few monsters with six eyes, but there are not many who can cause trouble like this. The dean snorted, took the painting and took the assistant to go Find Bian Changfeng and the others.

"Did it run away?" Lin Mian turned her head to look at Wu Ting.

The corner of the dean's mouth was slightly hooked: "I opened the mirage, it can't escape."

Assistant Lin scratched his head, when did it start?Why doesn't he know?

Seeing his stupid look, Dean Wu couldn't help laughing: "When you fell asleep."

"Ah..." Lin Mian blushed a little in response.

God, he doesn't even know that the boss works overtime at night, he's really not a qualified assistant!

On the other side, Director Bian has gained a lot, and his left and right hands are not idle, carrying two ghosts, one big and one small.

The big one had disheveled hair, crying so hard, the small one bared its teeth at Bian Changfeng.

The appearance of these two ghosts has not changed much compared to before they were alive, and there are no blood stains. They are missing arms and legs. They look clean, so Lin Mian can easily recognize each other's identities - Zhang Ruomei and his youngest daughter Ye Siyu .

Shen Qiming would not be afraid now, after all if ghosts look similar to humans, there is nothing to be afraid of, he even took a doll from his daughter's room and stuffed it into Ye Siyu's hands.

Hook Wei couldn't help but want to call him a hero.

On the contrary, Xuan Jizi next to him was shocked, as if he had suffered a great shock, Lin Mian was a little strange, Gouwei explained in a low voice when he saw this, "He saw Director Bian catching ghosts with his bare hands, so what he said...he doubted life. "

Lin Mian immediately understood.

With Xuanjizi's experience, he couldn't figure out why some people could easily catch ghosts without using coins, swords and ghost-exorcism charms?

This unscientific! !

Lin Mian has no time to sympathize with the gradually collapsing worldview of the mystical masters. In his opinion, since the ghosts of Zhang Ruomei and Ye Siyu have been captured, the truth about the strange events that occurred in the manor more than 100 years ago that led to the mad death of the Ye family should be revealed soon.

But Xu Shan shook his head: "Ghosts will gradually forget what happened in their lifetime after wandering around the world for too long, unless they turn into ghosts, but then they can only remember the deepest obsessions."

Looking at the appearance of Zhang Ruomei and Ye Siyu, Lin Mian knew that these two were just ordinary ghosts, far from being ghosts, so the plan to find out the truth from them would not work.

"What about the ghosts of Ye Di and Ye Siyang?" Shen Qiming scratched his chubby chin. Everyone found the skeletons of these two people during the day, but they caught the ghosts of Zhang Ruomei and Ye Siyu at night. gone?"

"Probably not." Xuanjizi came back to his senses and said, "From the investigation report, Ye Di and his wife had a very good relationship during their lifetime, since his wife and daughter are trapped in the manor, it is unlikely that Ye Di will abandon them and go to reincarnation. "

What Xuanjizi said made sense.

"Where are the ghosts of those two people?" Shen Qiming was really confused now.

But Lin Mian vaguely understood something, he smiled slightly: "Where Zhang Ruomei and Ye Siyu were before, they will be there."

Shen Qiming and Zhang Maocai faced each other in a dazed manner, but hooked their tails and slapped their thighs, exclaiming: "Drawing, that painting, Ye Siyu came out of it before!"

Bian Changfeng and Xushan's eyes flashed with surprise.

"Shen Qiming and I heard it right. The little girl Ye Siyu's laughter did come from the painting at first, and then she ran around in the villa."

After listening to Gouwei's explanation, everyone looked at the ordinary decorative painting in Wu Ting's hand.

The result, of course, is nothing.

It was already past two o'clock in the morning, and it was almost two hours before dawn. The few people had no intention of going back to sleep, so they went downstairs and gathered in the living room.

Xushan took out two pairs of black... handcuffs from the small suitcase he brought.Putting them on Zhang Ruomei and Ye Siyu respectively, the two ghosts immediately became much more honest, very quiet without crying or making noise.

Xuanjizi looked at the handcuffs, and then at the yellow talisman in his pocket, suspecting that all he had caught before were fake ghosts.

The author has something to say:

Quiz time without prizes, is there any baby who can guess which monster is in this unit?

Friendly reminder: six eyes.
