Chapter 160 Sanyuan Paper Shop.(1/2)
Taiping Ancient Town does not seem to be peaceful.
Yang Jian entered a street that did not exist in reality and returned the previous mask, but a three-yuan note was strangely returned to him at the empty stall.
This three-yuan note did not belong to any era, and judging from the color and style of the paper, it looked like fake money produced by a small workshop. However, this note could be regarded as a supernatural item, but the only thing that made him doubt it was
What is the difference between three-yuan banknotes and seven-yuan banknotes?
Is it just a different denomination?
Yang Jian explored that street, but Liu San's paper man stopped in front of an ancestral hall in Taiping Ancient Town.
A one-eyed old man in his sixties who was holding an enamel tea cup and with a slightly hunched body stopped Liu San from approaching.
Liu San was in shock and confusion at this moment. He looked at this person. Although at first glance, this person seemed ordinary and there was nothing surprising about him, but upon closer inspection, he revealed an unusual and strange feeling.
"Ghost Controller?" After a brief hesitation, he immediately asked.
The hunchbacked old man holding an enamel tea cup in the ancestral hall said: "The Taiping Town ancestral hall is not a place that a dead person like you can set foot in. Don't ask so many questions. Just go back to where you came from."
"Your place is haunted. I'm here to investigate on behalf of the headquarters. Do you know about the ghost lake? Zhongzhou City has been sealed off because of this incident, and many people have died." Liu San stood at the door of the ancestral hall, not daring to step in easily.
He was asking and also trying to find out what was going on here.
"Which year has not been haunted outside, and which year has not been dead? This is not something that I can control. I am just a keeper of the ancestral temple, and I don't know that much." The old man with a hunchback had a bad temper and said impatiently.
"Where is Taiping Town Ghost Lake? The source seems to come from here. You know this, right?"
Liu San continued: "Several of my colleagues have already entered the ancient town to investigate. If you know any clues, old man, I hope you can tell me so that this supernatural incident can be dealt with as soon as possible and the tranquility of this town can be restored as soon as possible.
No one like me will come here again, what do you think?"
He couldn't figure out the details of this person, so he still asked politely and patiently.
"If I say I don't know, I don't know."
The old man with a hunchback walked over a few steps, opened his eyes and said angrily: "It's unlucky to talk to a dead person like you. Get out of here. If you don't get out, I won't let you even become a dead person."
Although Liu San's face still had that sallow and weird look, his eyes had darkened. He had tolerated this man enough. Although he didn't know the details of this one-eyed old man, he was just a ghost controller who had gained supernatural power.
, even if he really takes action, he is confident that he can deal with it.
"We received an order from above to investigate the situation here. I hope you can cooperate. There is something strange in this ancestral hall. I want to go in and take a look. If you really want to take action, you'd better think clearly. There are all my colleagues outside.
, and even if you can kill us, the headquarters will still send other people over, and then the situation will not be what it is now."
"If you can cooperate with me, nothing will happen."
There was a hint of threat in his words, telling the old man that he was not a person, but a group of people. In addition, there was a headquarters behind him, and he was not an unknown person.
The hunchbacked old man stared at Liu San with his one pale eye.
The atmosphere was a bit solemn.
"I never believe what the dead say. If you want to come in, just come in." The old man spoke very directly, but his attitude was self-evident.
As long as Liu San dares to enter the ancestral hall, he will definitely end badly.
"In that case, I won't be polite." Liu San was also bold and not afraid.
He really crossed the gate and walked into this ancestral hall.
at the same time.
There were also several footsteps coming from behind, and two more Liu Sans appeared. One on the left and one on the right, they stood not far away from the ancestral hall, staring at every move here.
Liu San who walked into the ancestral hall was just a paper man used to explore the way. He was even ready to disappear into the ancestral hall.
"boom!"
As soon as Liu San entered the ancestral hall, before taking two steps, the heavy door of the ancestral hall next to him was closed with a loud bang.
The surrounding light suddenly dimmed.
The lobby of the ancestral hall was filled with smoke, and vaguely, several people appeared in the place where the smoke drifted. Those people stood in rows like spiritual tablets. There were men and women, and their clothes were all old.
people of this era.
And the weird thing is.
Only where the smoke is drifting can human figures appear, and other places where there is no smoke are still normal.
The smoke dissipated quickly.
Everything has returned to its original state, the spiritual tablets in the ancestral hall are still the same, nothing has changed.
But Liu San saw the terrifying scene just now.
He opened his eyes slightly at this moment and looked very shocked.
"What are those? Ghosts? Or supernatural images?" Liu San quickly guessed in his mind.
However, the old man who was blind in one eye strode over with a sullen face, holding an enamel teacup, and with a hint of anger.
Full of hostility.
"You want to take action? You also want to kill me?" Liu San retracted his thoughts, stared at the one-eyed old man, and snorted coldly.
As a captain-level ghost controller, he has never been afraid of anyone. Even Yang Jian is just afraid of him. If he really takes action, he is confident that he will fight to the death on any captain-level mission, and the person who survives in the end will definitely be
He Liu San.
However.
Outside the ancestral hall.
The two paper figures Liu San stood there but frowned.
Because they can no longer feel the connection with the paper man in the ancestral hall.
The thick wooden door seemed to isolate everything, and they had no idea what was going on inside. According to normal circumstances, anything that happened to one paper man would be known to other paper men, and memories and even supernatural powers would be shared.
Time passed gradually.
"Crunch!"
About two minutes later.
The wooden door of the ancestral hall slowly opened.
Of the two paper figures outside, one of them, Liu San, quickly approached and tried to investigate what was going on inside.
The ancestral hall is still the same.
Nothing has changed.
The one-eyed old man did not know when he moved a small wooden stool and sat in front of the rows of memorial tablets, burning paper.
Stacks of waxy yellow paper, like pieces of human skin, were thrown into the brazier.
The firelight lit up, reflecting on the wrinkled, shriveled face of the one-eyed old man.
A pale eye turned at an incredible angle and turned towards the two paper figures Liu San at the gate.
"..."
Liu San, the two paper figures, looked at the thick yellow paper in the man's hand and fell silent.
at the same time.
Another place in the ancient town.
Shen Lin, Li Jun, and A Hong searched together, and quickly located the location where the ghost lake connected to reality in the small ancient town of Taiping.
It is a small river flowing through the ancient town. There is a ferry next to the small river. It looks like it is quite old.
The stone slabs near the ferry are worn very smooth, which shows that this ferry was still very prosperous in the past. There must have been ships passing by frequently, used for traveling and transporting goods.
but now.
This place is abandoned.
The surrounding area is covered with weeds, and occasionally residents from the town come here to wash their clothes.
"There is no mistake. This is the connection point between the ghost lake and reality. Everything starts from here. As long as you keep walking along the river, you can enter the ghost lake." Shen Lin recalled. Check it out to make sure it’s correct.
The spirit goes all the way down the river, passing through Zhongzhou City.
So the Ghost Lake Incident happened in Zhongzhou City.
If you want to enter the ghost lake, you have to go down the river from the source and gradually be eroded by the supernatural and be brought into that strange place.
"Ask Yang Jian and Liu San to come over and prepare to enter the Ghost Lake." Li Jun said immediately.
"Not urgent."
Shen Lin said: "The road has been found, but how to get in is the key. If we just walk in directly, we will sink into the ghost lake, and Liu San's experience will happen to us again. No one has the confidence to go there. Live."
"We need transportation, preferably a boat, a boat that won't sink in the ghost lake."
Li Jun said, "There can't be that thing. The ghost lake is supernatural. All boats will sink. It is a supernatural lake, not a real lake."
The ghost lake is just a form of supernatural manifestation, not a real lake.
Therefore, the boat cannot float on the ghost lake.
