Chapter 9: The Deal with the Ghost Cabinet
Chapter 9 The Deal with the Ghost Cabinet
On the second floor of an old house from the Republic of China, a strong man curled up on the floor and howled, crying silently.
It seemed that his friendship with Erzhuzi was not shallow, or even very deep.
Liang Xingyang frowned, but said nothing and sighed.
Items related to the supernatural will carry terrifying dangers. If you are not prepared, you may end up like the second pillar.
By chance, he went to pick up the coffin nails, touched a tall black shadow, and was invaded by supernatural power in his right hand, which taught him an unforgettable lesson.
If it weren't for Yang Jian, he might have been merged into his body by the tall black shadow and disappeared.
Think about it in the original work, after Yang Jian discovered this mirror, if he hadn't lit the ghost candle in advance and made preparations, he might not have been able to break free from the mirror.
And can this ghost mirror be moved? The black cloth covering the mirror was also lifted!
If you touch the mirror with your hands and are attacked by the ghost inside, you will most likely die in the ghost mirror.
This poor guy.
Because of Erzhu's death, although Liang Xingyang saved the strong worker, he didn't feel happy at all, so he only sighed.
Liang Xingyang took a look at the ghost mirror, and there was a shadow inside. This person was wearing work clothes, with a yellow safety helmet on his head, and a faint smile on his face. He was the mirror image of the two pillars.
The shadow imitated Erzhu's smile with a stiff facial expression. It looked so charming that it made him feel chilly.
Before the shadow could run away, Liang Xingyang picked up the fallen black cloth and covered the ghost mirror again.
I picked up the electric drill on the ground and planned to drill through the wall behind to get the ghost cabinet.
Chen Gou got up from the ground, wiped away his tears, and stood in front of Liang Xingyang.
"You must know something! Tell me what's going on." Chen Gou blocked it with his burly body and asked aggressively.
Liang Xingyang said disgustedly: "If it weren't for me, you would also be dragged into the mirror. Is this the attitude you have towards your savior?"
Chen Gou covered his face and cried bitterly: "I'm sorry for Er Zhuzi. I can't explain it to his family."
Liang Xingyang sneered: "You brought him here to steal antiques, and an accident happened. I really can't forgive his family."
"The mirror is full of evil ghosts. Do you want to ask the evil ghosts for an explanation?"
"Ghost..." Chen Gou shuddered when he heard this, "But how could a ghost come out in broad daylight?"
Liang Xingyang retorted: "Ghosts will not stop killing people just because it is daytime. Ghosts cannot be killed. The only ones who can deal with ghosts are ghosts. Understanding the laws of ghosts is the only hope for living as an ordinary person."
Chen Gou lowered his head in guilt. He couldn't understand what nonsense Liang Xingyang was talking about, but he still said: "There is a ghost here, so let's run away."
Liang Xingyang didn't say anything, bypassed him, and directly drilled into the wall with an electric drill.
The ruins of an ancient house that had existed for hundreds of years were destroyed by Liang Xingyang wantonly. It took about twenty minutes to drill out a hole that could accommodate people.
Liang Xingyang curled up and got into the hole and came to the second secret room.
The room is not big, with a small wooden table placed in the center. There is also an old wooden cabinet, the paint has peeled off, revealing the original dark color of the wood.
Liang Xingyang came to the small wooden table and found the sentence carved on the wooden table:
"You will have everything and you will lose everything, so be careful."
This is a warning left by the original owner.
Using the ghost cupboard will lead to an endless loop of transactions. At the beginning of the transaction, two conditions are exchanged for one requirement, and after each transaction is completed, the ghost cupboard will increase the amount. The transaction amount between the two parties is getting larger and larger, and the ghost cupboard becomes more and more versatile.
Unless you can resist the temptation of the ghost closet and finally stop rationally, you will definitely fall into it and be unable to extricate yourself. In the end, you will be killed by the ghost closet if you fail to fulfill its requirements.
Even Yang Jian couldn't fulfill the request made by the ghost closet, so he had no choice but to flip the table and fall out.
Finally, he took out a first-grade ink bottle, a fountain pen from the Republic of China period, and a notepad from the top of the ghost cabinet, and put them all into his pocket and took them away.
Liang Xingyang moved the cabinet and drilled a small hole. When he saw that Chen Gou hadn't left yet, he was standing in a corner away from the ghost mirror, smoking silently. He couldn't help but wonder: "What are you still doing here?"
Chen Gou put out the cigarette butt and said sheepishly: "You saved me and Er Zhuzi. Although Er Zhuzi couldn't be saved, I will repay you."
"It's up to you. Please help me move this cabinet, be careful not to knock it."
Liang Xingyang asked Chen Gou to take over the ghost cupboard. It was not dangerous for the time being, and he could move the ghost mirror himself.
"Is your hand okay?" Chen Gou noticed some hideous wounds on Liang Xingyang's right hand.
"It's not a big problem." Liang Xingyang answered casually, "Is there anyone at home?"
"The house I rented, my hometown is thousands of miles away, the second pillar is gone, and I am the only one left."
I followed Chen Gou to a desolate small building, which was sparsely populated. It didn't look like a rental house as Chen Gou said, but just a room in an abandoned building.
The house has one bedroom and one living room, and the environment is a bit messy. There are mineral water bottles filled with cigarette butts on the bedside, and dirty clothes are everywhere.
Liang Xingyang blocked Chen Gou outside the rental house and said directly: "Let me use this place temporarily, don't you mind."
"do not mind."
"If I don't come out after tonight, don't come back. Call the police and say there's a supernatural incident."
Then he muttered to himself: "After Zhou Zheng's death, Dachang City will be temporarily taken over by Zhao Kaiming.
If Zhao Kaiming received a report, he probably would not use the wishing ghost to deal with the supernatural incident.
It is most likely to isolate this building, after all, this is an abandoned place.
If he chooses to do this, he will never be able to discover the two supernatural items, the ghost mirror and the ghost cupboard.
These two items will eventually return to Yang Jian. In comparison, whoever is willing to work hard for Dachang City can get these two things."
Zhao Kaiming himself, as an ordinary person, was haunted by the wishing ghost.
Every time the power of the ghost is used, a close relative will die. When a conflict breaks out with Yang Jian, even if a leg is removed by the headless ghost, he is reluctant to use the power of the ghost.
He exists like a ghost slave.
Extremely pitiful.
Chen Gou was a little panicked, but looking at Liang Xingyang's determined eyes, he still didn't refuse. He just said, "Little brother, you haven't told me your name yet?"
"Liang Xingyang."
After Liang Xingyang finished speaking in a deep voice, he closed the door.
Why come here? Because if something unexpected happens that Lian Liang Xingyang cannot predict, Guanjiang Community will not be affected in the end.
On the contrary, this desolate small building is suitable for his experiments.
It is difficult for ordinary people to understand the supernatural power. Even if there seems to be no dangerous control plan, the tail must be handled well to avoid leaving hidden dangers.
I learned this from the old house owners during the Republic of China.
The plan is about to change. Now that we have the ghost closet, we have to make use of it.
Liang Xingyang did not act rashly and immediately, but picked up the broom and rag and chose to clean the room.
Using labor to relieve your inner tension is a good way.
In the final analysis, you are risking your life to compete with evil spirits, so you cannot be too cautious.
Looking at the clean house, I feel better.
I looked at the quiet ghost closet in the corner, and it seemed like it was always like this.
Taking out the fountain pen from the Republic of China period, he unexpectedly found that it could still be used.
Write a line in the notepad: Help me control the ghost mirror.
Tear open a page and put your hand into the lower cabinet of the ghost closet.
He felt a hand stretch out from the depths of the cabinet and pinch the paper. The paper was taut, and a force came from the other end of the paper. Liang Xing retracted his hand in horror.
The ghost closet is a very scary ghost, and its killing mechanism is a transaction.
Yang Jian once used the wishing ghost to fight against the ghost cabinet, but the wishing ghost was only half as good as the ghost cabinet.
Ten minutes passed.
It seemed that a cupboard door under the quiet ghost cupboard suddenly opened, and a piece of paper was removed from inside.
It was the paper that I had stuffed in before. The first line of words read: Help me control the ghost mirror, but out of thin air there was an extra line of crooked and twisted black writing: Another request.
Liang Xingyang thought about it and estimated that it was because of insufficient trading quota.
On the other hand, the ghost mirror itself may also be a very scary ghost. It can not only imprison other ghosts but also resurrect the dead. It is probably not far behind the horror level of the ghost cupboard.
This transaction is just a trial. Even if Guiqi agrees to Liang Xingyang's request, Liang Xingyang will not be able to pay Guiqi the price and the transaction will not proceed.
So after Liang Xingyang thought carefully, he wrote another line: Help me control the shadow in the ghost mirror.
After sending the paper deep into the lower cabinet, the ghost cabinet fell into silence again.
Only two minutes later this time, Liang Xingyang discovered that the lower cabinet door of the ghost cabinet was slightly bulging.
He opened the cabinet door doubtfully and found a piece of paper lying there. At his request, a new line of words was written in black handwriting: Give me your right hand, and I will help you control the shadow in the ghost mirror.
