Nightmare Card House

Ling Luoluo is the daughter of my aunt. They both happened to study at the same local university. The school usually requires accommodation. Since the two families live close to each other, they often go back together on Fridays.

It is not safe outside these days. After sending Ling Luoluo, Fang Tian went home alone.

I don’t know why, but the symbol mark I saw in the card hall before always lingers in my mind.

Where has that symbol been seen before?

Raising his head, Fang Tian unknowingly walked to the door of his house. He did not push the door open at the first time, but carefully looked behind him, then stood on tiptoes and checked the hair placed above the door.

The hair is still there, no one has come in.

After he became an adult, Fang Tian moved out alone. This is the house left to him by his grandfather. It is said that his grandfather had disappeared before he was born. His mother once said that his grandfather and his friends were a group of very strange people.

Opening the door and standing outside, Fang Tian scanned the interior of the room again.

The position of the flowers in the vase, the angle between the two notebooks, the arc of the bedroom door...

After comparing some details, Fang Tian's expression relaxed a little. He was sure that no one had come in.

After taking a shower and changing into clean clothes, Fang Tian returned to the study and gently pressed the mechanism in a corner of the study.

Click, click, click...

The floor lifted up, revealing an entrance to the basement.

Going down the stairs into the basement, Fang Tian turned on the dim ceiling light in the basement.

The basement was very spacious and clean, with several old boxes in the corner.

Boxes, desks, chairs, and closets.

These were the only things in the basement.

Fang Tian walked to the closet step by step and gently opened the door.

Perfume, mixed with the smell of formalin, hit his face.

If someone was standing there, he would definitely be shocked by the scene in front of him.

Hidden in the closet was the body of a young woman.

The body was well preserved, without any signs of corrosion. She was carefully taken care of after her death. She was wearing a skirt and her face was extremely pale, without a trace of blood. If she was still alive, she might be a very beautiful girl.

Standing in front of the closet, Fang Tian's brows gradually relaxed. He looked at the body with a touch of tenderness in his eyes. He stretched out his hand and gently brushed the face of the body, feeling the cold temperature coming from the body.

"It must be very uncomfortable to be locked up here all the time. I'm sorry. Bear with it for a while. It will be soon. I will come to accompany you soon. Before that, we have things to do..."

Fang Tian's eyes gradually darkened.

"Some people have to pay the price, right?"

After closing the closet, Fang Tian walked to the desk and focused his eyes on a book on the desk.

This book is a bit old, and the cover has turned yellow.

This is something Fang Tian accidentally found when he was cleaning the basement when he was a child.

The first half of the notebook recorded some things Fang Tian had never imagined, undead, gargoyles, magic, witchcraft, the West Coast Mysticism Research Society... The obscure text was very difficult to read, and the second half recorded some strange numbers, which seemed like some kind of code.

The name on the title page was Fang Wei.

Fang Wei was the name of his grandfather.

The very strange person in his mother's mouth.

There was a note and a letter in the book, saying that if he got into trouble in the future, he could take the letter to the West Coast Mysticism Research Society for help.

Fang Tian didn't care too much about it.

In fact, most of the things recorded in the notebook were useless, but a soul spell recorded on it aroused Fang Tian's interest.

If the body is handled in this way, even after death, the soul of the deceased will never be able to rest.

Soul, does this thing really exist?

Fang Tian didn't quite believe it, but he didn't mind giving it a try. Fang Tian felt that death was too light a punishment.

Sitting back at the desk, with the help of the dim light, Fang Tian picked up the book and looked at it in his hands, flipping through the pages unconsciously.

Strangely enough, every time he read this book, Fang Tian could always feel an unprecedented tranquility.

Fang Tian couldn't count how many times he had finished reading this book. As usual, until he turned to the last page, Fang Tian still couldn't understand the meaning of the numbers after the strange and obscure words in the book.

Maybe these numbers are just something that grandpa is deliberately making a mystery of?

Just as he was about to close the book, Fang Tian seemed to have caught a glimpse of something, and his eyes were attracted by the cover of the last page of the book.

What is that?

Looking closely, Fang Tian suddenly realized that there seemed to be a strange symbol on the cover of the last page of the book.

What is this?

A flash of inspiration passed through his mind, and Fang Tian remembered it all at once.

Isn't that symbol the symbol he saw behind the card in the card hall before?

No wonder! No wonder I felt so familiar at that time, it turned out that I had seen it here by accident.

The strange thing is, why does this symbol appear on the last cover?

Fang Tian reached out and gently stroked the strange symbol on the page.

As soon as he touched it, Fang Tian immediately felt something was wrong.

A strange sense of layering came from his fingertips.

It seems... this symbol is raised?

Fang Tian suddenly thought of something, and he carefully fiddled with the symbol a few times.

The page tilted up a corner.

Sure enough!

That's right, the symbol on the page is not written on the cover! Something is hidden inside the cover of the page!

Fang Tian's eyes lit up, and he tore the cover of the entire page along the corner.

"Tap."

A card fell out of the cover and landed on the table.

"Is this... a card?"

Fang Tian's pupils shrank, and he carefully picked up the card that fell from the page and looked at it carefully in his palm.

Holding the card, Fang Tian felt a sense of peace from the bottom of his heart that he had never felt before.

At this time, Fang Tian suddenly had a strange feeling. Perhaps the sense of peace he felt when reading the book before came from this card?

Shaking his head, Fang Tian wondered if he was thinking too much?

Coming back to his senses, Fang Tian focused his attention on the card again.

Looking closely, this is a card with a dark background.

The pattern on the back of the card is the same as the one he got in the card hall before.

The difference is the color of the back.

The back of the card in the card hall is grayer, the silver texture and the background are silver, while the color of the back of this card reveals a sense of obscurity, with a black border and gray silk lines.

Looking at the front, the front composition is completely different. The front card is painted with a dark land, and the land is covered by black clouds.

There is nothing, revealing a dead silence.

"Wasteland?"

With a hint of doubt, Fang Tian gently read out the name of this card.

One-star card?

What does the "~" symbol after the star mean?

Fang Tian struggled to recall the instructions of the game in the card hall before.

The lowest level card has no star rating, followed by one star. The star rating represents consumption and strength. Generally, the higher the star rating, the stronger the power...

The color of the card represents rarity and strength. As for the wavy number, it has never been seen before.

So what is the color of this card...

Fang Tian looked at the border on the front of the card.

Black?

What does it mean? What level is black? It seems that there is no impression?

Fang Tian frowned.

Wasteland? What kind of card is this? What effect does it have?

He recalled the game he played in the card hall before, and it seems that he has not seen a similar card.

Also, why is this card deliberately hidden in the pages of the book.

What is the relationship between it and the card hall? What is the relationship between grandpa and the card hall?

Fang Tian felt countless question marks flashing in his mind for a while, and vaguely, Fang Tian felt as if he had touched something.

That card hall!

Fang Tian carefully put away the black card.

Perhaps, the answer is hidden in that card hall.
