The years of reselling the haunted house

I tried my best to raise my head and continue to look up.

Sure enough, after a while, a figure appeared beside the pit.

Due to his backlight, my eyes were blurry looking at the light, and I tried to rub my eyes to get used to it.

I was shocked to see a middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes standing beside the pit.Wearing a pair of glasses and a mustache, the man was staring down at me coldly.

It's not that people in suits are so strange, but what makes me feel unnatural is that there are still people wearing this suit in this deep mountain and old forest.

There are high mountains and dense forests here, so it would definitely be inconvenient to walk here in a suit.

But this man was wearing a dark blue suit, which was spotless and had corners.I can't see his shoes because of the angle.However, it is not difficult to imagine from the attire that he must be wearing a pair of shiny leather shoes.

"Sir, who are you, help me pull up."

I didn't have time to think about other things. Since someone appeared, I could only turn to him for help.

The man had a sullen expression on his face, as if water could be squeezed out of that face.Seeing his expression, I also had a premonition that something was wrong.

Sure enough, the man gritted his teeth and said bitterly: "You still want to come out? I tell you clearly, I can't wait to throw a few stones down and smash you into minced meat. You ruined my business, how many lives will you have?" Come to compensate me? Let you die so easily, it is considered cheap. When the night comes, I will make your life worse than death."

While the man was talking, I took another closer look.

The person standing by the pit was not only dressed strangely, but also behaved strangely.It's as if we are not in the same world as him.

The man's face was pale, and his body gave off a cold feeling from inside to outside.Even the tone of his speech was icy cold, as if his words were mixed with ice, making people shiver and get goosebumps involuntarily.

At the beginning, I hoped that he could rescue me, but after he said a few words, I completely dismissed this idea.Because of the coldness that this person gave me, it made me very uncomfortable and even frightened.

And judging from the meaning of his words, I broke his business.

I broke him what happened?I only did one thing just now, which was to break the seal on the ancient clock and save the fiery red raccoon.

Is this what he was referring to?

So, he caught the fiery red fox and hung it here?

Also, those cats and raccoons who were staying down there just now suddenly ran away, including the fiery red raccoon who looked imposing.They have excellent spiritual senses, and it seems that they ran away when they sensed this person's approach.

Seeing how frightened these cats and raccoons are, one can imagine how terrifying this person is.

When I came to Xiaozhou Mountain this time, although I didn't meet many people, everyone I met seemed to have a lot of secrets, and everyone was hiding something deep.

The man in a suit stared at me coldly after speaking, with the corners of his mouth turned up, showing a ghostly smile.

Chapter 724 Ancient Clock Rune

He was very creepy when he had a stern face just now, but when he smiled like this, I shivered even more.This smile is far scarier than when he is serious.

After the man laughed, he turned and left.

When his figure disappeared by the pit, the world suddenly became silent.

This kind of silence, because I can't see the situation outside, makes me feel a little uncertain.Maybe I wouldn't be so nervous if that person did something to me in retaliation.He didn't do anything to me, but it made me more flustered.

I listened quietly to the movement outside, and there was no sound for about ten minutes. It seemed that the man had left here.

I myself was left in this big pit.

Didn't this person say he wanted to take revenge on me?What's the matter with leaving me here by myself?

I thought to myself, and started to climb up the edge of the pit with my hands.

As a result, I tried a few times before I found out that the soil there was very smooth for some reason, and the pit was dug very steeply. I am not a gecko, so I couldn't climb up the edge of the pit at all.

I tried to hold onto the clock again and climb up, but the clock was too big for me to hold with my hands, and it slipped down after several attempts.

In the end, I wanted to dig a hole out of the wall of the pit, so that I could climb up by stepping on it.But the engineering shovel, the equipment we excavated, was also carried by the fat man, not on me.In addition, the soil here is not only slippery, but also hard, and this road will not work at all.

I struggled for more than an hour, and finally had no choice but to give up.

Only then did I know why the cold-faced man in a suit said he wanted to take revenge on me, but he didn't take any measures.Did he decide that I couldn't escape from here, did he want me to starve to death down here?

Now I can only hope that the help of external forces will allow me to escape.

But the only accomplice, Pang Dahai, is still comatose in the Limama Temple, he can't protect himself, let alone save me.

I just sat at the bottom of that pit, thinking how many days I could last if I didn't eat or drink.

The final conclusion is that if this continues, I may not be able to last for three days.It's not just a matter of not eating or drinking. It's very humid down here, and the moisture is constantly leaking out from the soil, so there's no wind here, but you can still feel the moisture constantly blowing on your body.

In such an environment, the human body is severely damaged.After sitting for a while, I had to stand up and move around.From time to time, I could see birds flying by in the sky, and I felt like a frog trapped at the bottom of a well, and I really felt the incomparable value of freedom.

It was getting dark soon, and as the sun went down, the temperature in the pit dropped even more.The moisture also turned into an icy air current, making the pit cold.

I hugged my shoulders and kept crying.Xin said, this cold-faced person is too hurtful, this is really going to torture me so that life is worse than death.

I just let go of a fiery red raccoon, why is it like killing his own father, hating me so much.

The night is getting heavier and the temperature is getting lower and lower.

I hugged my shoulders and kept moving in the pit.I knew that if I waited until all the heat from my body was taken away, I would probably be near death.

Those cats and racists haven't shown their faces since they ran away.

I thought that since they were grateful to me, would they save Pang Dahai and bring Pang Dahai to save me?

I thought so, and gave myself hope.Otherwise, I'm really afraid that I won't be able to stand it.

However, this hope gradually dissipated with the passage of time.

I estimated the time, and it was almost midnight by now.If Pang Dahai could really come, he should have arrived long ago.And that cold-faced man must have already calculated this point. Since he wants to kill me, he will definitely do everything possible to prevent other people from coming to save me.

My body is getting colder and my heart is getting colder.

I sat on the ground, hugging my knees, and buried my head between my legs.The decision is to stick to it like this, and I will be left to fate whether I live or die.

Once a person gives up hope, the spirit will collapse, and there will be no willpower.

Not long after I sat down, my mind felt empty.Originally, I could still hear the rustling of the leaves of the tree blown by the night wind outside.

Later, the voice seemed to disappear in my mind.

The surroundings fell into a dead silence, which seemed to isolate everything from the outside world.But soon, I heard the beating of my heart.

This is my own heartbeat, I hear my own heartbeat.

In addition to the heartbeat, there are other sounds.

Buzzing, is it the sound of blood flowing in my veins?

No, there's... and buzzing bells...

I tried my best to open my eyes, and there was an ancient clock in front of me. Could it be that the sound of the bell came from above?

Sure enough, when I opened my eyes, I found countless red dark lines flashing on the surface of the clock.

I was shocked, and the red dark lines were like the blood vessels on the clock, covering the entire body of the clock.

How is this going?

I stood up from the ground with a bang, and approached the bell involuntarily, only then did I realize that those dark red lines, which looked like veins of blood vessels, turned out to be those strange runes on the bell.

I observed carefully, and the dark lines were really like blood vessels, and there seemed to be blood flowing inside, and I could see the trend and ups and downs of those dark lines.

This aroused my great curiosity. I have identified these strange runes before, but I don't recognize them at all.Because this kind of rune is completely different from the runes I have learned, whether it is the hand or the structure.

For runes, the order and weight of strokes are extremely critical.For some runes, you don't just need to remember its shape.

I can also see that the blood-like flow on the ancient clock is just a process of running a rune.

Although I don't know the specific functions of those runes, I can't help but follow the runes on the clock with my hands and slowly draw them in the air.

Accompanied by the flow of those runes, the ancient clock continued to ring dully.But this ringing seems to only spread in my consciousness.I didn't feel a deafening sensation, but a trembling feeling.

I gradually gathered my mind and concentrated on the flow of runes on the clock, and at the same time I was gesticulating with my hands.

Time tends to pass quickly when you put your heart and soul into one thing.

Before I knew it, I had practiced all the runes on the bell body.

The runes on this clock may seem complicated, but there are rules to follow.

Chapter 725 The Seventh Rune

Fortunately, I once learned how to draw runes from Chu Liuyan, so I only need to memorize the runes on it once.

From this, I have a deeper understanding of the runes of this ancient clock.There are a total of seven runes on it, each of which should have a special purpose.It's just a pity that I only remember how to draw this rune, but I don't know its meaning.

I don't know why there is such a change in the runes on the clock.

After I learned to draw those runes for a while, the red dark lines gradually faded until they disappeared.

After the dark pattern disappeared, the rumbling bell also gradually disappeared.My ears buzzed, and I heard the outside voice again.

It was as if I woke up suddenly in a dream, and what I just entered seemed to be another world.I touched the top of the clock, and it returned to normal, smooth and unmarked.It seems like nothing has changed above.

I quickly went through the runes I just learned in my mind, and I can still remember them clearly for the time being, but I feel that this memory is gradually fading away.

I hurriedly took out the pen and paper in the backpack as quickly as possible, and by moonlight, wrote down the drawing methods of the seven runes that I vaguely remembered on the paper.

In the end, it was still a step late. When I finished drawing the sixth type of rune and was about to draw the seventh type, I couldn't find any impression of the seventh type of rune in my mind.

Moreover, when I returned to think about the other six runes, their imprints were completely eliminated from my mind.

That is, if I hadn't left these on paper.These seven strange runes just acted as passers-by in my mind, passing by without leaving a trace.

I put away that precious piece of paper. I plan to ask Chu Liuyan to identify these six runes if I see them.

I looked at the sky and guessed it was still midnight.This change on the ancient clock did not improve my situation in any way.And I feel that time has passed for a long time, but in reality it may only be a few minutes, at most no more than ten minutes.

I was still trapped, and the cold was still attacking my whole body.

I smiled wryly, it seems that my wish to show Chu Liuyan the runes on this paper will not come true.I used the blood from the tip of my tongue before, although I was fed a strange thing by that fiery red fox, which stabilized my body a lot.

But now with the invasion of this cold, I feel that my body is going to collapse again.

If things go on like this, whether I can survive this night is still unknown.

I sat slumped at the bottom of the pit, leaning against the dirt wall, drowsy.

I've been in this state for about a quarter of an hour.

Maybe tonight is not destined to be a night of peace, and suddenly there is another faint voice in my ear.

I'm actually too lazy to open my eyes anymore, and my voice is a little numb to me.

But the sound was happening right above my head, and I had to open my eyes to see it.

As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw a scene that made my scalp tingle.

I saw dense snakes hanging on the walls of the pit.

That's right, another snake.

Before my third uncle and I came out to break up the house, I grew up so much, I never thought carefully about how snakes exist and how many kinds of snakes there are in the world.

I never thought that I would have such close contact with snakes.

But after following my third uncle, several experiences have proved that animals like snakes are really ubiquitous.Again today, I don't know where and why they came from.

What I saw was that they hung densely on the wall of the pit.They're all in one pose, head down and tail up.They are hanging upside down from outside the pit and crawling down.

I was shocked, stood up, and held the Dragon Subduing Wooden Sword firmly in my hand.

However, with the appearance of more and more snakes, I hardly have any desire to resist.If they are really coming for me, I can imagine what will happen to me.This may correspond to what the cold-faced man said, "I'd rather die than live tonight."

I grinned, trying to calm my heartbeat, watching more and more snakes crawling from outside to inside the pit.

Soon there were snakes falling from above to the bottom of the pit.

Several snakes swam over slowly with their heads held high.

I leaned against the wall and didn't dare to move. I had the attitude that if I don't offend me, I won't offend. I thought if I didn't provoke them, maybe they wouldn't attack me either.

After all, I have taken tree crystals, even if I was bitten by a snake, I may not be poisoned to death.And I still have corpse teeth in my mouth, maybe, these corpse teeth can also help me resist them, and the dragon subduing wooden sword in my hand, it is called subduing dragon wood, it must be able to subdue snakes...

I leaned against the wall, thinking wildly.

The snake in front of me didn't crawl towards me, but I felt a chill on my neck. I don't know when, the wall of the pit behind me was also covered with snakes, and a flower snake landed on my neck. .

I subconsciously grabbed the snake and flung it far away.

It's just that the area of ​​this pit is really limited, so many snakes gather together, more and more often, I just want to avoid them, but I can't escape them.
