I have a weird dynasty

Chapter 512 [Piano #3]

boom!Boom!

The door was constantly banging against each other, and the sound of fingernails scratching against the door became more and more frequent.

Suddenly, the sound of piano came from the second floor. Jiang Zao immediately raised the flashlight. When the light shone over, the door of the room where the sound came from suddenly closed, and the piano sound immediately moved to another room.

Jiang Zao kept turning the flashlight, and the sound of the piano came intermittently from each room, gradually forming a strange tune.

As the music played, Jiang Zao found that the scratching sounds at the gate stopped, and the damp black marks on the walls around the villa spread rapidly, like a group of savage ghosts breaking free from the walls, accompanied by foggy darkness and painful groans, invading from all directions.

Waves of chill rose from behind Jiang Zao. The flashlight flickered and was swallowed by the darkness. Jiang Zao immediately pressed another button on the flashlight.

The flashlight's illumination range suddenly narrowed, and the light turned from incandescent to purple, with a rune hidden in the beam.

The purple light beam touched the dark mist, making a sizzling sound like barbecue. The ghosts hidden in it screamed in pain and disappeared without a trace.

Jiang Zao was not too afraid in the face of such a situation. Instead, he roared angrily.

"You are a bunch of dirty bastards who only bully the weak and fear the strong! Don't think I am afraid of you!"

The music continued and the darkness continued to invade. As the music became more and more exciting, the darkness became more and more boiling.

Jiang Zao grabbed the hammer and swung it in the dark. The flashlight beam kept changing direction, burning the approaching shadows. He moved towards the stairs to the second floor. All the sounds came from the second floor.

However, the darkness was invading more and more violently. Jiang Zao had just stepped one foot onto the stairs when his shoulder suddenly felt heavy and a biting cold invaded his body.

The exorcism talisman on the palm of her hand instantly combusted into ashes, and the ghost hand on her shoulder loosened, but more ghost hands stretched out from the darkness behind her, clinging to various parts of Jiang Zao's body one after another, trying to drag her into the darkness.

Jiang Zao grabbed the stair railing. The flashlight was about to run out of battery and the talisman in his pocket was constantly combusting.

The situation here was beyond her expectations, and it was also the most dangerous delivery mission she had performed since joining the grocery store.

At this point, Jiang Zao no longer hesitated, reached into his bag and pulled out a piece of red cloth.

The red cloth fell to the ground, and white ghost-faced bell flowers instantly bloomed from under Jiang Zao's feet and quickly spread to the surroundings. Wherever they went, the black fog dissipated, and the ghosts hidden in the darkness were forced back, unable to get close to Jiang Zao.

Jiang Zao felt his whole body lighten and the flashlight went out. With the faint white light only three meters away from his feet, Jiang Zao saw two illusory figures with only the upper bodies from his peripheral vision.

A girl in ancient costume, dressed in white as if she had albinism, was holding the hand of a gentle bride wearing a wedding dress. Two ghost shadows were floating behind Jiang Zao and smiled at him.

Jiang Zao glanced at the statue in the bag, which looked exactly like the two girls.

Jiang Zao knew their origins. They were Ming Wanxi, the eldest daughter of the Ming family, a wine-making family in another world, and her maid Huilan, who was as close as a sister to her. They became ghosts after their death and had been worshipped by people.

Later, the ghost power of the other world disappeared, and Sang Que recovered their statues from the He family and gave them certain dark powers, which allowed the two of them to be revived.

It’s a pity that dark power is needed everywhere in the grocery store, and Sangque can’t spare much, so the sisters’ power is very limited now.

While the two sisters were guarding around, Jiang Zao quickly replaced the batteries in the flashlight and ran up to the second floor.

As she runs, the bell flowers under her feet will spread and grow, ensuring that the area within three meters around her will not be attacked by black fog and ghosts.

There were four rooms on the second floor. When Jiang Zao rushed into the room closest to the stairs, he saw a man sitting in the room, playing the piano as if he was playing the piano. When Jiang Zao shone his flashlight over there, the mummy-like man immediately turned into ashes.

The few things remaining in the ashes indicated that these were the group of people who had come in to commit suicide before.

The piano music had not stopped yet, Jiang Zao quickly checked the other three rooms, and there was a mummy sitting there playing the piano, but there was no piano.

The four mummies turned to ashes under the purple beam of the flashlight. The piano sound stopped abruptly and the dark fog around them also suddenly disappeared in the blink of an eye, as if they had never existed.

Silence returned to the villa. The damp stains on the walls were like peeping evil spirits, bringing Jiang Zao some pressure.

Jiang Zao searched the entire villa but still couldn't find the piano with the problem, let alone a way to leave the ghost realm.

"Ahhh, this is so annoying. I might as well call Sangque and level this place!"

Jiang Zao scratched her head in annoyance. All she had to do now was to silently say "Niangniang Xuannu, save me" three times in her heart and Sang Que would arrive in one second. But Jiang Zao was unwilling to do so. She did not want to be looked down upon by Sang Que, and now was not a life-and-death crisis.

The light of the bellflowers under his feet became weaker and weaker. Jiang Zao nodded to the shadows of the two sisters behind him and wrapped the statue with red cloth again.

"Calm down Jiang Zao, calm down and think about what went wrong."

Jiang Zao knocked his head and started over from the beginning. Suddenly his eyes lit up and he looked towards the basement.

"The dressing table mirror!"

After she entered the villa, the exorcism talisman had no effect at all. All the ghostly things started after she looked into the mirror on the basement dressing table. There might be more than one evil object in the villa, the piano, the mirror is also an evil object, and she might have entered the mirror without knowing it!

After sorting out the clues, Jiang Zao took the flashlight and ran towards the basement.

boom!
Jiang Zao kicked open the door of the basement, jumped down the stairs in three steps, and suddenly was frightened and took a step back.

There was no debris anywhere in sight. In the huge dark space, there were only people wearing white cloths.

Jiang Zao's scalp tingled. The purple beam of the flashlight shone on the nearest human-shaped white cloth. The white cloth immediately caught fire and turned to ashes in the blink of an eye.

The flashlight in this mode consumes a lot of power, and Jiang Zao is not sure if she can burn all of the human-shaped white cloths.

Taking a deep breath to build up his courage, Jiang Zao pressed the flashlight switch to save power, and slowly walked through the gap between the human-shaped white cloths.

She felt her pocket and found only two amulets left in it. She had to find the dressing table quickly.

The process of passing through was smooth. Jiang Zao found that as long as she tried her best to hold her breath, the human-shaped white cloths would not react.

After walking through half of the basement, Jiang Zao saw the dressing table at the back and was delighted.

At this moment, the sound of the piano came again, like a stone falling into the calm lake. All the human-shaped white cloths around suddenly turned their heads and looked at Jiang Zao, spitting out a lot of blood from their mouths, instantly dyeing the entire white cloth red.

Jiang Zao immediately used a flashlight to burn the white cloth that was blocking his way and rushed towards the dressing table at a faster pace.

The white cloth stained with blood rushed towards Jiang Zao like sharks seeing blood.

Jiang Zao's arms and legs were entangled, there were too many white cloths, and the power of the two exorcism talismans in her pocket was limited. Jiang Zao was dragged to the ground and watched the dressing table getting farther and farther away from her, and more and more white cloths fell on her from all directions.

A strong intuition told Jiang Zao that if she was suffocated down there, she would die.

At the critical moment, two red water plants rushed out from the mirror on the dressing table, wrapped around Jiang Zao's arm and pulled hard.

The force was so great that Jiang Zao flew off the ground and crashed straight into the mirror on the dressing table.

Jiang Zao raised her hands to protect her face, but the expected collision did not happen. Instead, she passed through the mirror and bumped into a person who smelled like seaweed.

"Brother Qin!"

Jiang Zao was entangled by Qin Ze's water plants and landed safely. Qin Ze didn't bother to answer. He immediately spread out a large piece of red cloth, covered the mirror on the dressing table, and pasted a piece of talisman paper on it.

After doing all this, Qin Ze let out a long sigh, and the red water plants flying on his body slowly shrank back into his clothes.

"Are you okay?" Qin Ze asked with concern.

Jiang Zao felt around his body and said, "I'm not hurt."

Qin Ze nodded, "That's good."

Qin Ze didn't say much. Jiang Zao was simply inexperienced this time. In his world, mirrors were something that he had to be extremely cautious about.

Generally, the bronze mirrors used by girls for dressing are not too big. After use, they should at least be turned upside down on the table. There are also some totems carved on the back of the bronze mirrors to ward off evil spirits and ghosts.

If Qin Ze came to visit this villa, he would be wary of this mirror the first time he saw the dressing table.

After all, this is a haunted villa, so it is not surprising that other evil things appear.

Qin Ze took the oval mirror off the dressing table and held it in his arms. "Don't be so stubborn next time. If you are in danger, call the boss to help you. Go out first."

Jiang Zao hung his head in frustration and followed Qin Ze out of the basement.

The piano in question must have been swallowed by the mirror and was somewhere in the world inside the mirror. As long as the mirror was taken away, the problem here would be solved.

It was dusk outside. When Jiang Zao went out, he saw Yang Mengzhu pacing in the yard holding her cell phone, with a nervous look on her face.

Qin Ze walked up to Yang Mengzhu and put the mirror down. "The problem has been solved. You should demolish this area as soon as possible. If you want to redevelop it later, it would be better to build a Taoist temple or a temple at the location of your villa. It will be safer to collect incense."

Yang Mengzhu looked at what Qin Ze took out with confusion, "Isn't the piano the problem?"

Qin Ze didn't explain too much, and said to Jiang Zao behind him, "I'll take the things back and file them first, you can talk to her."

Jiang Zao exhaled, walked forward, put his arm around Yang Mengzhu's shoulders and walked out, "This problem is a bit complicated to explain. The problem is indeed the piano, but the mirror is something unexpected. In short, the problem has been solved, and you need to pay the bill. Under normal circumstances, if you come to our door to pawn something, we don't charge any fees, but this time you also saw that we are two people working out of the field, and there is also the cost of transporting this cargo, the total is..."

I've been watching TV series and reading novels recently to enrich my material library, so you know what I'm talking about, hahaha.

see you tomorrow~
