Chapter 14: Out-of-Control Situation
"What are you...what are you doing?" Arent's voice was trembling a little.
Unable to avoid trembling, Xu Yi locked the door as soon as he entered the house, then went to the utility room to pick up an axe.
Could it be that the liar's identity has been revealed and he is planning to kill him to silence him?
The thunder outside the window became more and more violent, and the sky became completely dark, making it difficult to see even one's fingers.
He suddenly remembered what Xu Yi said before entering the door, if you want to kill someone, this is indeed a good weather.
Thinking of this, Arent's back was soaked with cold sweat.
The sharp ax was handed to Arent, who looked at Xu Yi with confusion.
"Take it! Don't you want to help?"
Xu Yi didn't know why Arent was so nervous.
Did the other party see a ghost in the house? He looked back and forth but found nothing.
"Oh, it turns out I was just helping! I told you earlier!" Arent wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
Knowing that Xu Yi was not trying to kill him, his rationality gradually returned. He was a little confused, what was he doing with the axe?
Is it planning to perform a physical exorcism?
"Would you like to sprinkle some blood on the axe?" Arent suddenly said.
Xu Yi looked at Ellente in surprise, "Why do you have this idea?"
"Aren't you Chinese? I recently studied the exorcists of Xia Kingdom, and they all like to sprinkle blood on their weapons." Ai Luntby made a finger-biting gesture.
Xu Yi rolled his eyes, ignored Ellente, and prepared to head to the basement.
Another thunder exploded in the sky. Xu Yi turned his head and looked out the window. The scorching lightning stung his eyes.
The thunder was so close that it seemed as if it was falling from above their heads. Arent was startled, and the ax fell to the ground with a clang.
Xu Yi benefited from his "boldness" and remained calm.
The lightning seemed to hit something. Something fell to the ground not far away, and the ground shook violently.
"What's in that direction?"
Xu Yi began to recall. It was a plain with low shrubs planted there, and there didn't seem to be any large buildings.
"Jesus bless! Jesus bless!" Allen clasped his hands together and kept praying.
Xu Yi suddenly remembered that there seemed to be a huge statue of Jesus standing in that direction.
Is there something wrong with the statue of Jesus?
Xu Yi shook his head and did not continue thinking. None of this has anything to do with him, and people from the church will naturally take care of it tomorrow.
He had just taken two steps when he suddenly stopped and turned to look at the wall behind him... He suddenly realized that the collapse of the Jesus statue had nothing to do with him.
The white ash on the wall suddenly turned yellow and fell off, forming a yellow-brown spot. The spots spread in all directions, but in the blink of an eye, the time of the house seemed to have passed by for hundreds of years.
"What...what's going on?" Arent's voice trembled.
Arent can actually see it! Xu Yi was suddenly startled.
He realized that something was wrong. His psychic entries were about to be filled up. He was spiritual and could see things that ordinary people could not see.
But Arent could also see the changes on the wall, which meant that the situation had escalated.
Xu Yi has always had a question in his mind, there are so many ghosts in this house, why is the danger so low, only "one resurrection coin" level?
Even if they are all good and docile ghosts, when so many ghosts gather together, something terrible will brew.
But the ghosts here are extremely peaceful.
Now he understood that it was because of the statue of Jesus in the cemetery.
In this world, church pastors and the like are not just decorations. The statue of Jesus that has been "opened" by the church has indescribable miraculous power.
The statue of Jesus has been suppressing the ghosts here, but what a coincidence, now the statue has been broken by lightning!
Blood-red spells appeared on the tawny wall. He had seen these spells on the bandaged ghost's body before.
He also went to the library to check ancient books, but because of the dense bandages, only a few runes could be seen, so he could not be sure of the function of the spell.
Now that the walls were covered with clear spells, he finally knew what method the original homeowner used to enhance his psychic abilities.
These are necromancy spells, evil spells long lost.
Its function is to seal the soul within the corpse so that the soul cannot be reincarnated. Powerful resentment can strengthen psychic abilities. Arent rushed towards the corridor, trembling all over, and rushed towards the door.
But the undead spell spread too fast. As soon as he rushed to the door, the door was already covered by the undead spell.
Ellen pulled the lock and pushed the door hard, but it didn't open.
He kicked hard with his feet and hit the door with his body, but the door remained motionless like a welded steel plate.
Xu Yi saw that even the windows were covered with undead spells, and knew that the place had been isolated and could not get out for the time being.
"Stop hitting me! Follow me!" Xu Yi yelled angrily.
Ellente turned around and saw Xu Yi with a calm expression, and suddenly came back to his senses.
He rushed back to Xu Yi as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw, "Exorcist, what should we do now?"
His intestines were about to turn green now. He shouldn't doubt Xu Yi, if not If he doubted Xu Yi, he wouldn't have come here, and he wouldn't have encountered this kind of thing.
Xu Yi glanced at Arent speechlessly, this guy was too courageous.
"Take the ax and follow me to the basement!" Xu Yi also took an ax from the utility room.
He was originally not prepared to take action. After all, there was free labor like Arent, but now the situation took a turn for the worse and was beyond his control. He had to solve the problem here as soon as possible.
The two of them hurried to the basement. Xu Yi looked at the unchanged morgue and slowly breathed a sigh of relief.
If the walls here were also covered with spells, they would be in dire straits, as ordinary axes would not be able to split them.
Xu Yi picked up the ax and struck it on the wall.
The walls here are almost all made of wood, with just a layer of stone paint painted on the outside.
The wooden wall panels were so thick that the heavy ax left only a mark on the surface.
"Why are you standing there in a daze! Help quickly and knock down all these walls!" Xu Yi glared at Ellente, who was standing beside him.
"Oh! Oh!" Arent came back to his senses and quickly stepped forward to help.
He imitated Xu Yi and chopped down the wooden wall with all his strength without any mercy, completely forgetting that he had spent all his savings to buy this house.
Xu Yi carefully checked the floor plan of this house, and he discovered something strange.
The house covers an area of 152 square meters, but in actual use, it feels very small, especially the walls of the morgue, which are incredibly thick.
Arent raised his ax and struck hard again, and the wooden wall was finally overwhelmed and cracked.
A ball of yellow-brown stuff fell down, and Arent let out a scream.
Xu Yi turned his head and saw clearly the yellow-brown thing. It was a dead man's head, wrapped in dense bandages, and the bloody curse underneath could be vaguely seen.
"Stop screaming and split the wall quickly. There is more than one corpse here!"
Ellente split the wall in fear. Xu Yi's words soon came true. Corpses fell out of the split wall one after another. Slipping down, they were all covered in bandages.
Xu Yi looked at the corpse in front of him and was not surprised. Everything was as expected.
He realized it when he was looking up information in the library.
The stolen bodies in the cemetery, the unreasonable layout of the houses, the large number of ghosts... all point to this undoubtedly.
"Count the number of corpses!" Xu Yi glanced at the pile of corpses and assigned a new task to Ellente.
Arent had a sad look on his face, but he still did it obediently.
There is no way to disobey, those bloody spells have not disappeared yet, Xu Yi is the only one to rely on before leaving here.
Xu Yi kept frowning. Although he successfully found the body, the bad feeling in his heart did not disappear. Instead, it became more and more intense as time passed.
From the time he entered the funeral parlor until now, he hadn't seen a single ghost, which was really abnormal.
