"Captain, how is the situation outside?"

Once back to the room.

Li Yang asked impatiently. Although he heard some movements outside, the information he got was limited after all.

"Signs of evil spirits began to appear outside the ancient house. I went out and walked around for a while and closed the door. That's it." Yang Jian said briefly.

"Someone died just now?"

Yang Xiaohua on the side raised her head slightly, her bloodshot eyes filled with anxiety.

Yang Jian took a look and said, "I killed an uneasy ghost master. These people want to unite and let me use coffin nails to weaken my strength. No one wants me to hold such a supernatural thing in my hand."

thing."

"Indeed, the information about the coffin nails was leaked last time, and many people knew about it. If we hadn't killed a group of people last time, there would probably be ghost masters coming to Dachang City to make plans." Li Yang said.

Everyone in the supernatural circle knows that Yang Jian has a nail in the coffin that can nail evil spirits.

No matter who it is, as long as they get the nail in the coffin, they have the capital to compete with any evil spirit.

If this thing hadn't been in Yang Jian's hands, no one would have dared to make any decisions, otherwise trouble would have arisen long ago.

"There shouldn't be anything particularly dangerous happening today, but I have a hunch that as the number of days we stay here increases, the ancient house will become more and more dangerous," Yang Jian said.

"Have a good rest and recuperate your mental and physical strength. I guess you won't have a chance to sleep in the next few days."

After he finished speaking, he found a place and closed his eyes.

Yang Jian didn't sleep. He was still alert to the movement outside the door and listened to every move around him.

soon.

The other people in the lobby dispersed and hid in various places in the ancient house.

Everything became calm again.

There was no more hurried knocking on the door outside the old house. It seemed that everything was much better after closing the door.

However, as time passed little by little.

It was about three o'clock in the morning.

There was some movement outside the old house, which was the sound of the wind blowing at night and the rustling of the woods.

The wind is gradually getting stronger.

There are various sounds made by the wind blowing through the cracks in the building everywhere in the ancient house. The sound is very strange, like someone crying, and it can be heard from all directions. It is impossible to tell where the sound comes from.

The whining wind suddenly turned into a strange cry.

This change is so gradual that people don't react at first and have unknowingly accepted this incomprehensible change.

"The whole old house is crying?"

Yang Jian suddenly opened his eyes at this moment. He was now sure that it was windy outside, but there was crying inside the ancient house. This sound was a bit like Tong Qian's grimace, but it was just the crying inside the ancient house.

Many times, there was not just one cry, but the cries of dozens or even dozens of people mixed together.

"It's just like crying in mourning..."

do not know why.

This situation reminded Yang Jian of the scene of a funeral.

On the first day after a person's death, the family members of the deceased need to mourn to express their grief.

Right now, the old man's body in the ancient house had just died, and this weird crying sound appeared on the first night. Isn't this exactly the same as mourning?

"Seven days...the first seven days, the first day before the body is buried, the banging on the door at night, the mourning."

Yang Jian sat quietly, his eyes flickering slightly as he connected the information together in his mind, trying to figure out what was going on.

He now believes that what happened in the ancient house is related.

Everything is operating according to a certain arrangement that has already been arranged, and it is not the kind that cannot be traced. If the next changes in the ancient house can be judged in advance, the danger may be reduced a lot.

"If these are all carried out according to the funeral procedures, the most important thing on the first day is the encoffining, moving the old man's body into the coffin. If nothing is done, there will be no body in the coffin and the encoffining will not be completed.

, then who will the whole ancient house mourn for?"

When Yang Jian thought of this, he was inexplicably shocked and felt a strong sense of crisis.

Because the old man's body is still left in the lobby without any attention, and no one dares to approach it. If this continues, the encoffining will definitely fail today, and everyone will have to bear the consequences of the failure.

Look at the time again.

It's almost four o'clock in the morning.

At first, the strange sounds in the ancient house were just whining wind, then turned into crying and lasted for a while. At this moment, there was a new change.

Those cries are changing places...

A familiar and weird cry itself was located in the front yard of the ancient house. After Yang Jian locked on the sound, he found that the sound was moving and moved to the patio.

There were also sounds that were originally coming from the roof, but now they were crying in the middle of the lobby, as if they had fallen from the roof.

The sound was very close, as if it was right next door.

What even made the room feel horrified was that a cry actually moved to the door of the room.

It seemed that there was really a person standing outside the door crying.

But if you listen carefully, you will find that the cry is like the whining sound of the cold wind blowing by, and everything seems not so scary.

Fortunately.

This kind of cry is not fatal, it is not Tong Qian's grimacing cry, so the people in the room are safe for the time being.

But it was so "busy" outside the room. Under this situation, no one could feel sleepy. Everyone stared outside with their eyes wide open and a bit frightened.

Although they are separated by doors and walls, they cannot see what is going on outside.

But this cry so close at hand made people have to be vigilant.

"Judging from the supernatural phenomena, this is showing signs of gradually getting out of control. My previous inference may be that the burial must be completed."

After Yang Jian realized this, he made up his mind.

He stood up again.

The others looked at him again, with slightly surprised expressions.

"It would be very dangerous to go out at this time." Eagle said solemnly: "There are weird cries outside. I suggest you wait until the cries subside."

Yang Jian didn't answer him, but just glanced at Li Yang.

Still the old rules.

In his absence, Li Yang was responsible for guarding the door, ensuring that there was a safe place to hide in the ancient house, and that he could retreat at any time.

Li Yang said nothing and just nodded.

Yang Jian immediately opened the door and walked out.

As soon as he opened the door, the crying outside suddenly stopped and turned into scattered wind echoes. There were no ghosts or anything else outside. It seemed that the crying in the ancient house was due to too much pressure.

The auditory hallucinations make people feel suspicious, but in fact they are just the most common rumors.

Yang Jian quickly came to the lobby.

The crying in the lobby also disappeared, as if Yang Jian's appearance disturbed the crying nearby, and everything returned to normal.

But only the crying around Yang Jian has changed. In other corners and deep in the ancient house, the crying still echoes.

"The body is still there."

Yang Jian stared at the old man's body on the black Taishi chair, and felt less nervous. What he was most worried about just now was that the body disappeared mysteriously.

Walked over immediately.

He came to the body.

The skinny, cold corpse of the old man was sitting upright on the chair, with his eyes closed and extremely stiff. The wrinkled skin was covered with corpse spots, and the number was more than before.

The body seemed to be rotting.

Yang Jian wanted to use coffin nails to nail the body first, but he gave up after thinking about it.

This corpse may be the key to maintaining the balance of this ancient house.

If the coffin nails nail the corpse, then once the corpse loses all its supernatural power, the balance in the ancient house may be broken.

When faced with supernatural events, as long as the situation does not worsen, do not take any unnecessary actions.

Yang Jian has done self-defeating things before and has experience in this area.

So now he didn't even use his ghost hands. He directly reached out and grabbed the arm of the corpse and tried to lift it.

With Yang Jian's current strength, he can easily lift even ten corpses, let alone a dead corpse.

However, the old man's body sat motionless on the chair, and it was abnormally heavy.

"This is not because of insufficient strength, but because there is an abnormality in the corpse itself." Yang Jian stopped using brute force. He knew that relying solely on strength was useless.
