Mysterious Resurrection: Treacherous Pocket Watch

Chapter 149 The Ancient House in the Mountain
no doubt.

Those lanterns are full of ghosts.

These seemingly bright red lanterns are actually kept lit by burning these ghosts continuously.

However, this phenomenon should not be intentional by the owner of this ancient house, but a kind of aggregation of spirits.

Compared with the existence in the sedan chair, after being assimilated, the weak ghost puzzle will find its most suitable position according to a certain corresponding law and become a part of it.

Take the old house in front of you as an example.

With a rather terrifying spiritual basis, it is like an invisible vortex, constantly devouring the surrounding spirits.

And these ghosts swallowed, some will become members of the wedding party, some will enter the lantern and burn themselves, and some will become decorations in the house or other things.

This can also explain why ghosts always appear as things that ordinary people perceive, just following an invisible bottom line.

After coming down from the mountain path, the scene changed suddenly.

Surrounded by a deserted valley, it seems that no one has set foot here for many years, and weeds are everywhere.

But in such a remote corner, there is actually an extremely magnificent house in the middle.

The clean and tidy house is incompatible with the surrounding abandoned scene.

Add to that the weird queue at the door, and a huge sedan chair followed by a bloody bus, and the scene is even more nuanced.

"We... seem to have arrived at their lair?" Luo Qian stared at the house not far away, with a surprised tone.

Lin Fan shook his head, and said straight to the point:
"It's not so much a lair, it's better to say that this is a spiritual place occupied by those ghosts. This is terrible. It can be said that this is completely their territory, and it is even more difficult for us to find opportunities."

Who knows how many ghosts there will be in such a big house, and with their current suppressed state, except for Lin Fan, Luo Qian and Yuan Ping are equivalent to ordinary people, there is no room for them to fight back.

Even if you take a step back, the three of them are in their prime, and it is impossible to head-to-head with such a large number of spirits.

Hearing Lin Fan's blunt words, Luo Qian opened his mouth weakly, and said helplessly, "Then are we really... going to die here?"

"Maybe there is still a chance." Yuan Ping regained his sanity and began to use what he was good at. "I think since these ghosts didn't kill us, maybe they have other purposes."

This statement made Lin Fan vaguely guess something, but he still frowned and said: "The possibility of a ghost having self-awareness is very low, and it is even lower to use living people. However, it is not impossible."

It is not that there have been ghosts with high IQs in the story line of the original book. Whether it is using living people as bait or using methods that only intelligent creatures would use, they have all happened.

But instead of getting entangled in this, it's better to focus on the law of killing. After all, what those ghosts outside want to do, they can't stop them, it's better to find this key information.

"Assume they're intentional."

Looking out of the window, Yuan Ping could only see a hazy halo: "Before the ghost in me was suppressed, I saw it before, so behind the wedding procession was a sedan chair, and I suspect that the ghost inside that sedan chair , is the existence that dominates these supernatural beings."

Lin Fan and Luo Qian nodded, and did not deny this point. Although those wedding caravans that focus on weirdness are scary, they also exist to serve the women in the sedan chair, and the relationship between primary and secondary is very clear from the beginning.

"Then extend your thinking and think about it."

"If you go back to a house after receiving the bride according to the usual rules of welcoming the bride, what should you do next?"

The original plane was pale, and the word order was extremely fast.

Without even thinking about it, Luo Qian blurted out:

"If it's according to the customs of Dahai City, after receiving the bride back home, the first thing to do is entertain the guests with the groom, and then perform some ceremonies. These things should be pretty much the same. "

"That's right, that's it," Yuan Ping nodded slightly, and said calmly, "As long as we can figure out what the definition of our coming here is, maybe we can find a corresponding opportunity and take the opportunity to leave."

Yuan Ping's inference undoubtedly gave a new direction. Although it is slightly different from the modern thinking mode of dealing with supernatural events, it is also remarkable and has a certain degree of credibility and possibility.

In the supernatural events that will give guidance, there must be a hidden law of killing. If you follow it, it may be triggered, and if you don't follow it, it may also be triggered. If you follow this line of thought, you will indeed find opportunities... Lin Fan rubbed his chin, lost in thought.

"So, we are her guests?" Luo Qian's guess was more ideal, but he is not to blame for this, after all, it is the first time to participate in a supernatural event.

But when it came to the specific definition, Yuan Ping couldn't give an answer, and sighed: "I hope it's a guest, not something more subtle."

Relying on his faint figure, he looked in Lin Fan's direction according to the position of the voice just now, and asked, "Brother Ye, what should we do next?"

"Let's arrange it according to their wishes for the time being." Lin Fan couldn't give any better advice, it might be safer to follow this arrangement.

The two hole cards on him, the Foxtail Pen and the Ghost Seed, although they have amazing effects in essence, it also depends on who they use them for.

The ghost in the sedan chair...

Let's call it Ghost Bride for now.

In essence, it must not lose to your own hole cards, so in terms of function, it will naturally be affected.

As for the "script" written by the foxtail pen against the heavens, it is also necessary to look at the current situation in order to formulate a reasonable development.

"I remember that in the original book, there was a similar old house, but the ghost bride in it was very different from the ghost bride now, at least in terms of body shape, there was a very big gap."

Lin Fan couldn't help looking at the big red sedan chair that was so close that he could reach it as long as he stretched out his hand.

And from the window of the bridal sedan chair, the slightly hanging palm was about the size of an adult's head, but the slender and white fingers could not see any clues, as if they were simply big.

He reckoned that the sedan chair was close to three meters in height, and the ghost bride sitting inside might be around two meters in size, or even bigger.

"Will there be such a giant in the last era?"

"With such a tall figure, then she..."

At this time, Lin Fan's thoughts suddenly stopped.

I still remember that he had seen things of similar size several times back then, but unlike the Ghost Bride, those things were bones that had rotted for a long time.

Once in the weird ancestral hall attracted by the corpse of the black cat; once in the depths of the great lake in Zhenjiang, at the root of the ghost willow tree.

And what really appeared was the bone tree hidden under Dachang City in the original book!
"Could it be that the ghost bride is related to those huge bones? If that's the case, then there may be a big secret hidden in the house in front of me."

Lin Fan's thoughts gradually drifted away.

But at this moment, the palm resting on the window was suddenly withdrawn, and then it stretched out from the door curtain of the sedan chair, as if it wanted to open the door curtain and come out.
