Chapter 318 The Variation of Ancient Spells
Jiang Yue's voice was deep but fast, even commanding.

Tong Feifei was still venting, but when he heard that Jiang Yue's tone was wrong, he was startled and immediately backed away.

Whoa!
The large mirror that was originally intact fell off from above the sink when Tong Feifei had just retreated to the door.

Broken into countless pieces, it fell like rain.

Most of it fell on the washbasin, a small part fell on the ground, and some even splashed at Jiang Yue and his feet.

Tong Feifei's face changed in astonishment, and he watched this scene in horror.

He was even a little confused, did he use too much force just now, causing the mirror to fall off?

Or is it a problem with the mirror itself?

"Look!"

Han Jingjing suddenly pointed at the debris in a sharp voice.

Inside the countless mirror fragments, countless strange candlelights actually refracted.

A fragment corresponds to a candle, and it seems that countless candles are lit up in an instant.

but--

The strange thing is that countless candles appeared at this moment, which did not brighten the bathroom, but made it a little more gloomy and cold for no reason.

No one knows what happened to the candle in the mirror and where it was reflected from.

Because, the bathroom is empty, and there are no candles in the space visible to the naked eye.

In other words, there are no candles in the real world, but strange candles are reflected in the world in the mirror fragments.

Is this just an illusion?

In the air, the temperature seemed to be dropping slowly, and an inexplicable chill came up from the feet of everyone.

"Back off!" Jiang Yue blocked Tong Feifei and Han Jingjing behind him.

blah blah blah!

The toilet, which seemed to be in disrepair, made a muffled sound, which sounded very clear in this dead night.

Then, there was a gurgling backwater sound inside the toilet.

No one has touched it, yet the toilet works by itself?

Generally, the toilet will automatically return to water only after flushing.

Besides, this building has been abandoned to be demolished, even if the strange era has not come, the water and electricity must have stopped.

If the water and electricity were cut off, the toilet would naturally not work.

The toilet that broke off the water actually returned to the water automatically?
The next moment, the toilet cover slightly lifted up, as if a hand was gently lifting it from under the toilet.

The speed is very slow, so slow that it is almost weird.

After the cover plate is fully lifted up, the seat ring under the cover plate is slowly lifted up again.

After the seat was raised, the sound of backwater in the toilet became clearer, and the gurgling sound became stronger and stronger, as if water was about to rush out of the toilet pit.

Both Tong Feifei and Han Jingjing's complexions changed drastically. If Jiang Yue was not calm, they almost wanted to run away.

They didn't want to stay in this damn place for a second.

The strange details in front of him made Jiang Yue recover from his initial astonishment.

"There is a grievance, and a debtor. The three of us were passing by, and we didn't mean to offend. If you need our help, or want to tell us, please give us some instructions."

Although these details looked very intrusive, Jiang Yue generally felt that the opponent should not be very hostile.

If there is really a strong hostility, it is absolutely impossible for the three of them to search in the office over and over again, let alone be so tepid.

"Mom... Mom... I want Mom... Mom, I'm in pain, I can't breathe, this place is so narrow, I can't even straighten my legs..."

"Mom, save me, save me out..."

At first, Jiang Yue thought the sound was coming from the bathroom, but soon, Jiang Yue discovered that the sound seemed to come from all directions.

The whole office was surrounded by this miserable cry for help.

This voice is still a bit milky, it sounds immature, but it is extremely pitiful, it makes people feel soft and heartbroken.

"It's her, is that little girl?" Han Jingjing held onto Jiang Yue's arm tightly and asked tremblingly.

"It must be her!" Tong Feifei said firmly.

Jiang Yue nodded slightly, holding the Ye Mingzhu in his hand, instead of retreating, he walked towards the bathroom instead.

When he walked near the washbasin, he ignored the shards of the mirror on the ground and approached Ye Mingzhu towards the wall.

The mirror fell to the ground, revealing the wall behind the washbasin mirror.

There was actually a strange picture drawn on the wall, which looked like an arrow.

It seems that this technique is not very clever, but the temperament of this arrow is weird, giving people a very strong and sinister feeling, which makes people feel uncomfortable and upset when they look at it.

From the perspective of ordinary people, this arrow seems to be just a whim of graffiti.

But Jiang Yue looked at it from the perspective of feng shui, and he knew that the arrow had an evil aura, and there must be some unknown will.

Tong Feifei and Han Jingjing also came over.

They also saw the pattern of the arrow.

"What kind of ghost trick is this? Why does it look a bit evil?"

Jiang Yue remained silent, and walked to the toilet again.

When the night pearl shone near the toilet, they soon discovered that the same arrow pattern was painted on the toilet lid.

The same method, the same gloomy, the same disgusting.

"There must be something wrong with this pattern, there are probably other places!"

Seeing the same pattern twice in a row is by no means a coincidence or accident, it is 100% deliberate.

Chi Chi Chi!

At this moment, in the shower room next to the toilet, the slightly rusted nozzle actually made a sizzling sound as if water was about to come out.

The water didn't come out.

But when Jiang Yue's Ye Mingzhu approached, there was a relatively hidden corner next to the shelf where the shower gel and shampoo were placed in the shower, and the same arrow pattern was clearly carved!

Three in a row, this is more certain, not a coincidence.

"Look again!"

Everyone didn't notice this detail before, and the light was dim, so they didn't notice it for a while.

Soon, they found two patterns in a row in other places,

They are all arrow patterns.

One is on the edge of the cabinet, just blocked by the books on the upper shelf of the cabinet. If you don't look closely, you will never find it.

The other is on the inside edge of the desk drawer.

This is even more hidden.If the three of them hadn't been rummaging through boxes and cabinets, not letting go of every detail, it would have been impossible to find this kind of inner edge area with so many sundries piled up.

Then, at the corner of the wall outside the balcony, another same pattern was found.

Added together, there are six places.

The three of them continued to search and search around.

Unfortunately, there is no more gain.

Jiang Yue took out the piece of paper figurine that was clipped on the book earlier, and turned it over and over again in his hand.

He made some new discoveries.

The paper pierced the person's body, and there were seven small needle holes, which nailed seven vital points of the body respectively.

What is certain now is that this paper pierced man is definitely a curse.Those arrows should also be used to cooperate with the curse.

But judging from the tiny pinholes on the paper pierced man's body, there should be seven arrows.

But they searched and searched, but still only found six places.

For this reason, the three of them tossed and turned inside and out, and they were short of digging three feet into the ground.Including the paintings on the wall, decorations and so on, all were removed and checked one by one, but there was still no gain.

On the corners of the ceiling, the seventh arrow that should have been found was also not found.

"Squad leader, are you sure there must be seven arrows here?" Tong Feifei asked in frustration.

"This is a sorcery evolved from the ancient evil curse Nailhead Book of Seven Arrows. The link of the seven arrows must not be wrong. There must be another arrow in this room."

In the Jiang family's inheritance, many ancient curses were also mentioned.

Jiang Yue didn't think of it all at once before, but these arrows gave him some hints, reminding him of the legend about the book of seven arrows with nail heads passed down by Jiang's family.

According to legend, among the ancient spells, the Book of Seven Arrows with Nailed Heads is one of the most vicious and lethal spells, and there are not many spells comparable to it.

The paper piercing people I see now, including the arrows and other details, are very similar to the legendary spell. Although the details are not consistent, it can be clearly seen that it is the same technique, but the details are relatively rough. Naturally, the power of magic cannot be compared with that in ancient legends.

Moreover, the evil aura exuding from the paper piercing person and the arrow, the temperament is very obvious, and the recognition degree can be said to be relatively high.

Therefore, Jiang Yue believed that his judgment should not be wrong.

But where will the remaining arrow be?

The arrows in the bathroom before, including the area around the cabinet and desk, seemed to have some hints in detail, allowing them to find the arrows quickly.

So, the last one, why no details?

Jiang Yue was a little confused for a while.

He was basically sure that the details he had seen before must be the signal from the little girl to remind them.

But the most critical last link, why didn't the little girl give a hint?
If she was really asking for help, even if she was asking for help by fooling around, she should be in a very urgent mood.

Is it my own judgment error?
And there is no legendary seventh arrow?

Jiang Yue sat down on the chair behind the desk, lost in thought.

He didn't sit still on his buttocks, his body leaned forward slightly, his eyes stared at the cabinet, and he jumped up suddenly.

Blinking and blinking, when he looked intently, there was nothing in front of him, Jiang Yue was in a daze.

I clearly saw just now that there was a figure holding a candle in his hand.

This figure couldn't see the specific appearance, but it was indeed a man, a man who was not too old, at most 30 years old.

Although it was a silhouette, Jiang Yue could tell that this man was tall and well-proportioned.

But there was an eerie aura about this person, especially holding a torch, as if he was about to start some kind of evil ritual.

But when Jiang Yue went to the cabinet, there was nothing.

He went back to the chair and sat down.

Faintly, that shadow flashed past again.It seems that the camera lens of the movie is switching rapidly, flickering and disappearing, constantly changing.

Tong Feifei and Han Jingjing also saw Jiang Yue's strangeness.

"Fat fat!"

Jiang Yue stood up, staring at the big potted plant next to the cabinet.

"Go get that potted plant out."

That potted plant was really big, the big pot at the bottom almost reached Tong Feifei's waist.In addition, it was filled with soil, and a large Fugui tree was planted inside.

Even if the rich tree has withered and withered, the whole big potted plant is still very heavy.

Tong Feifei can also be regarded as an awakened person, and his physical strength is much higher than that of ordinary people.

When moving, it is still somewhat difficult.

boom!
The potted plant was placed heavily on the ground, making a muffled sound.Moved to the open space next to the desk.

"Look carefully, isn't this potted plant a little abnormal?"

"What's abnormal?" Tong Feifei panted, circling the potted plant, but he didn't understand what Jiang Yue meant.

Han Jingjing murmured: "I think that although the rich tree is big, the pot is too big and too deep? Does it affect its overall beauty?"

"That's right, that's the reason. The pots for normal potted plants shouldn't be so deep. You can see that they reach Tong Feifei's waist."

"Well, maybe everyone has their own preferences?" Tong Feifei didn't think it was a big problem.

Jiang Yue nodded and said: "If you judge from this point alone, it's really not a big problem. But since we entered the house, we have paid attention to every corner. It seems that we don't pay much attention to this potted plant. Right?"

That being said, it does seem to be the case.

Just now, I searched everywhere, searched over and over again, and it's not like I haven't turned around this potted plant.

But this potted plant is simple, the branches and leaves are all hanging, the dead branches can be seen at a glance, and the soil underneath is also hard because of dryness, so there is nothing wrong with it at all.

So they didn't focus on it.

After Jiang Yue's reminder, they looked at the potted plant in surprise.

Could it be that there is something wrong with this potted plant?
Jiang Yue pushed away the chair and walked to the potted plant.

He said to himself: "Ordinary green plants, even if they have not been watered for a long time, have not been taken care of, and are dead, there should be many branches. This rich tree seems to have been pruned manually. The person who cultivated it, It didn't look like it was expected to live."

As Jiang Yue said, his foot had already stepped on the edge of the potted plant.

Hold the dead tree trunk with both hands, and pull it up with a little force.

The soil below has been completely dried out, and this pull should have been firm without any loosening.

But Jiang Yue clearly felt that the trunk was slightly loose after being pulled by him like this, as if there were no roots below to grab the soil, and it was easy to lift up.

It felt like a bamboo pole stuck in the sand, and it was extremely easy to pull.

Under normal circumstances, even if it is a dead tree trunk, the roots should be deeply buried in the soil, and the grip should be very firm, and it is absolutely impossible to move it so easily.

Jiang Yue tried again.

puff!
Under Jiang Yue's pulling force, the tree trunk was slowly lifted up, and the mud clods were also loosened and brought up.

With Jiang Yue's force, the tree trunk was pulled out by him.

However, what surprised them was that although a little mud was brought out by this pull, the amount was pitifully small.

Taking a closer look, the root of the tree trunk, instead of having the roots it should have, has been cut to a point, which looks like it is inserted directly from above.

Han Jingjing and Tong Feifei were dumbfounded.

How could this be?
Jiang Yue seemed to have expected it a long time ago, raised the trunk in his hand, and said to the pointed end below: "Look, does this look like an arrow as a whole?"

To say like, it's really not very like.

How can there be such a thick arrow?
