me and my monster neighbor

When the pink piggy puppet was thrown to the ground again, Xu Lai had already left Room [-] and couldn't bear to look at it any more.

Xu Lala couldn't calm down, and he was silent all the way. He went to the third room next door and saw the hyena fidgeting in the room, stopping and going, and finally squatting in the corner, hugging the centipede for the death of the centipede. Xu Lale couldn't help but let out another long sigh when he blamed himself.

The wind was strong at night, and the monster's heart was unpredictable. In this dark and stormy night, it was this bald monster neighbor who left Xu Lai with the only precious warmth.

Xu Lai continued to "visit" the next neighbor.

The one who lives next door to the hyena spirit is the bat spirit in Room [-]. Mr. Fu is still receiving "special" treatment in Room [-] of the Luji Little Miracle Doctor. Room [-] is empty, and Xu Lai walks in directly. .

The No. [-] room where Mr. Fu lives is located in the southwest corner of Zhongnan Cave. There is not enough light all year round and the indoor temperature is low.Mr. Fu is also the general supplier of glass products in Zhongnandong. The room is gorgeously decorated, clean and tidy, filled with all kinds of exquisite glassware, and there is a wall full of glass hourglass on the right hand side of the entrance.

These hourglasses, also known as ashes hourglasses, are also one of the specialties of Zhongnan Cave.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Xu Lala entered Room No. [-], Shenwu Gui had already keenly noticed something strange: "This room is too dark."

Seeing the glass hourglass all over the wall again, Shenwu Gui said to the point: "Hey, this village is really not simple, these hourglasses are not ordinary utensils—"

Shenwugui dragged his tone on purpose to whet everyone's appetite, before he said slowly: "These hourglasses... can summon souls."

?

The other three demon spirits present were more or less surprised when they heard this, only Xu Lai looked calm.

As early as when Xu Lai visited Mr. Fu's No. [-] room for the first time, he heard such a legend from Mr. Fu:

"

On the night of the full moon, when you swing the hourglass, the ashes will tell the truth.

'

Although Mr. Fu once humbled himself "not to mention whether the rumors are true or false", he does not have the powerful demon power to summon souls. If he recruits wandering souls but cannot send them back, the result will be even worse.

However, this rumor was brought up at that time together with the soul-confinement technique used by the black bear spirit. Xu Lai had just watched the deeply moving and profound friendship between Hei Dazhuang and the pig spirit. The rumors are already convinced.

Xu Lai repeated the "rumor" that Mr. Wan Fu said, but Shenwugui shook his head and said, "No, no, what you just said is not right."

Xu Lale frowned: "What's wrong?"

Shenwugui corrected: "The moon is yin, the sun is yang, and the night of the full moon is the most yin, but it is not only on the night of the full moon that the soul that is silent in the ashes can be awakened."

Xu Lale frowned: "You mean you can also talk to Rang Ashes on weekdays?"

Shenwugui held his head high and said: "Of course. As I said just now, this room is very dark, and it is not enough to keep away from the sun all year round. There must be mass graves in front of and behind the house. Or, try to reduce the breath of the surrounding living creatures as much as possible. Because in such an environment, there are no restrictions on the spirit summoning even during the day."

"..."

Xu Lala thought about it seriously, and replied: "The back of the No. [-] house is a barren stone forest, where no grass grows, but there is a small light yellow flower."

Xu Lala once went to water the little yellow flower on purpose. He compared himself with the little goose-yellow flower, saying that he should be unyielding, self-reliant and self-reliant in living alone in the demon world.

But Shenwugui nodded seriously after hearing the words: "That's right."

Xu Lala was puzzled and said, "What's wrong?"

Shenwu Gui made a conclusion: "However, your wording just now was inappropriate. Strictly speaking, it was not 'but there is a small light yellow flower', but 'there is only one small light yellow flower', and the small light yellow flower you mentioned in your mouth, It must be the overlord flower."

Xu Lale:?

Shenwugui explained that Bawanghua, as the name suggests, looks petite, but its roots are deeply rooted in the ground, and it cannot be spared for a radius of one mile. It will not only snatch nutrients, but also suck the roots of flowers, plants and trees. Therefore, If you want to grow vegetation within a mile, you must first cut the grass and roots of the Bawanghua.

On the contrary, if you want to drive away the surrounding living things as much as possible, you only need to transplant one overlord flower.

Xu Lale: "..."

Xu Lala had seen too many surprises tonight, but he never imagined that in this magical land of Zhongnan Cave, even a small flower could be so different and so ferocious.

At this time, recalling that he had "same disease and pity" with Xiao Huanghua, it turned out that he was just pretending to be affectionate.

Just when Xu Lai was feeling sad, Shenwu Gui said again: "There is a hidden compartment behind the row of empty hourglasses at the bottom, go and see."

Xu Lale had no time to feel sorry for himself.With his authorization, the golden-winged roc controlled the power of the wind, removed the glass hourglass without leaving any traces, and then opened the bottom shelf of the closet.

As Shenwugui expected, they found a hidden compartment behind the closet, and there were many glass hourglasses containing ashes hidden in the hidden compartment.

Xu Lala was very careful, he urged the golden-winged roc's wind force to turn over one of the hourglasses, and then frowned—the hourglass turned, and the quicksand poured down, but what came to his ears was only the noise of "rustling", occasionally two The sound is like chalk rubbing against the blackboard to make a sharp and harsh sound, which is extremely harsh.

Xu Lala immediately turned the hourglass back, and he complained that Shenwugui provided false information: "Didn't you say that even if it is not a full moon night, the ashes can tell the truth? This is also called speaking?"

Shenwu Gui said, "She did say so."

Xu Lale:?

Xu Lala squinted slightly, staring closely at the hourglass assembled from two round glass balls, but he didn't see anything tricky.

Shenwugui snorted complacently: "It's lucky that I'm here, otherwise, even if the roc bird's demon power is stronger than mine, it would be helpless to face this dialect encryption."

Shenwugui puffed up her chest, held herself up and stomped on the golden-winged roc secretly.

However, there is a specialization in the art industry, and the golden-winged roc also admitted that when it comes to magic circles and other related fields, Shenwu Guizi is more proficient than him.

After bragging about himself, Shenwugui started to do business, "deciphering" the encryption function imposed by Mr. Fu in the ashes hourglass for Xu Lele and the others.

When Xu Lai turned over the ashes hourglass again, the ear-piercing noise suddenly turned into a hateful curse.

It was a shrill female voice, and the scolding was very shrill——

"Bat spirit, you must die!"

Xu Lala's eardrums were sore from the shrill roar, but fortunately, the scolding died down after the sound.

Shenwugui waved his hand and said: "It's okay, it's okay, this is the normal process. If the resentful spirits sealed in the ashes hourglass are murdered, there must be resentment left. Therefore, when the first stream of flowing hourglass falls, they will first avenge their enemies. .”

Of course, he couldn't blame the murderer if he died, but he still had to curse out his anger.

This cursing can also be understood as the boot music for flipping the hourglass for soul-calling.

Shenwugui reminded Xu Lai: "The ashes can only tell the truth, you can ask everything you want to know from her mouth."

Xu Lala: "...um."

Xu Lala's perception of Zhongnan Cave had undergone earth-shaking changes that night. Before he was mentally prepared, he knew everything he didn't know and what he shouldn't know.

He withdrew from his chaotic thoughts, kept his last sobriety, and asked:

"Did you also live in Zhongnan Cave during your lifetime?"

"Yes."

"Mr. Bat Jing Fu killed you?"

"Yes."

"Who did Mr. Fu team up with to kill you?"

"Little Deer Spirit and..."

Xu Lala frowned again, and heard the female voice trapped in the hourglass reply: "Camel spirit."

"..."

Xu Lala learned from the resentful spirit that Zhongnan Village was originally no different from Wuwang Village opposite, until one day Lu Ji's little doctor and Mr. Fu suddenly appeared, they occupied this small village, and then came a camel spirit, They started to join forces to try out a game called "Kindness" in the village. Villagers who violated the rules of the game would die at night, and the aborigines also began to panic.

However, once the game starts, it will not be stopped for no reason. The three big monsters started to smash bridges and construct large-scale construction projects. In the end, the original residents of Zhongnan Village were all exterminated, and they all died of unkind crimes...

Xu Lale randomly selected a few samples from other ashes hourglasses and asked a few questions, and the answers were basically the same.

Xu Lai put all the ashes hourglasses back in place in silence, and he gained a new understanding of Zhongnan Cave. He did not expect that the first batch of "industrialists" in Zhongnan Cave's "trial operation" turned out to be Mr. Fu, Director Luo and Luji the little genius doctor.

However, Xu Lala quickly corrected his wording. The word "unexpectedly" was not used properly. After all, he was not surprised when he heard these three names.

Xu Lai returned all the ashes hourglasses that had been moved to their original positions.

He was about to leave, but when he walked to the door, his whole body trembled suddenly, his back felt cold, and he stopped abruptly.

Nine-tailed Sky Fox asked, "What's wrong?"

The four demon spirits looked at each other in blank dismay, they didn't notice anything unusual around them.

Xu Lala sullenly asked Shenwugui: "Since the ashes can tell the truth even on a full moon night, let me ask you, do you need to seal up all the ashes of the corpse in an hourglass to be satisfied with evocation?" conditions of?"

Shenwugui didn't know the intention of Xu Lala's question, so he just answered truthfully: "Of course not, there are many monsters with huge monsters in their bodies. Could it be that they have to make two hourglasses the size of small hills to hold the ashes? What do we have to do?" In what year and month, putting as many ashes as possible is just to prolong the sand leakage time and increase the questioning time of the soul call."

In short, even if only one arm of the corpse is contained in the hourglass, this ashes hourglass with special effects of evocation can also be "turned on".

As soon as the ashes hourglass is "turned on", the "startup music" of self-revenge and enemy will definitely sound.

Xu Lala still clearly remembers the day when the neighbors in Zhongnan Cave found the body of Centipede Jing, regardless of previous suspicions, the neighbors decided to bury Centipede Jing properly, so they burned Centipede Jing to ashes and brought it to Mr. Fu's residence.

Mr. Fu warmly received Xu Lai and his neighbors to visit his No. [-] room. While showing his gratitude to the landlord, he conveniently filled the centipede's ashes into the hourglass coffin...

At that time, Xu Lala thought that Mr. Fu was testing the smoothness of the quicksand. The hourglass made a few ear-piercing rustling sounds, like sand and gravel scraping the glass wall, and it sounded like noisy teeth grinding, which was a bit out of breath.

After the noise, Xu Lai raised his head and met Mr. Shang Fu's gaze. At that time, his scalp was numb from Mr. Fu's gaze.

Xu Lai is now certain that the centipede's body was sealed in a glass coffin, and the hourglass was turned upside down. The sharp and piercing noise at that time was the boot music.

The spirit of the centipede spirit should say:

"Human race in room NO.13, you must die!"
