The years of reselling the haunted house

Chapter 55
A lot of sundries were thrown on the floor indiscriminately, as if they had been robbed.Presumably these things were messed up when Fei Yao came back to look for things.

Judging from the messiness of those things, one can imagine the horrible scene at that time.

The decoration and layout of the attic are also arranged in accordance with the decoration style of the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China period.After entering the door, there is a nave.There are several mahogany grand master chairs around.In the middle of the nave, hang a painting and a couplet.

It was so dark, we just shook the flashlight briefly, and didn't look carefully at the content of the painting and couplets.On one side of the nave, there are quaint cabinets standing side by side, just like the traditional Chinese medicine boxes in the pharmacy.

In addition, there is no separate room here, so after looking around, the third uncle waved his hand and motioned us to go upstairs with him.

Because I heard the introduction from the guy in the teahouse and Xu Ruoxi before, I know there are several rooms on the second floor, including the room with the dressing table.It was also the only room where Fei Yao didn't go in to look for things when he came back.

Thinking of that black cat, I couldn't help turning around and asking Xu Ruoxi: "By the way, what happened to that weird black cat?"

Xu Ruoxi didn't react for a while, so I reminded her again: "It's the black cat licking the mirror, the stray cat Fei Yao took in."

Xu Ruoxi shook her head: "That cat has been missing since that day, and I haven't seen it again. Maybe it ran away, after all, it was a stray cat before."

I nodded, remembering that my third uncle once said that black cats are more likely to attract evil, and when we demolished the first abandoned building, I was once entangled by a black cat.So is everything that happened here also related to that black cat?

Thinking of this, I turned around and wanted to ask Third Uncle if he wanted to open his mind on that black cat.

As soon as he turned around, he found that Uncle San had found the stairs next to him and walked up the stairs to the second floor.

I hurriedly told Xu Ruoxi to follow. When I was scouting the haunted house with my third uncle, I failed to follow him several times, and something happened all these times.This time you have to keep an eye on him.

But after going up the stairs, the third uncle, who was walking slowly with a flashlight on, suddenly quickened his pace.Regardless of whether he could see the road ahead, he stepped over the stairs in three steps and ran straight to the second floor.

From my side, I only saw the figure of the third uncle flashing and disappearing at the corner of the stairs.

I was startled, I was really afraid of something.In order to take care of Xu Ruoxi, I stayed behind. If I lose contact with my third uncle, the consequences can be imagined.

I quickly took a step forward, but the step was too big. Xu Ruoxi, who was behind me, kept pulling on the black tiger knot on my body, which made her stagger and almost brought her down.

I turned around to take care of her, and when I looked again, Third Uncle had completely disappeared.

I cursed and urged Xu Ruoxi to go up the stairs to the second floor.

I don't know if it's an illusion. After I came up, I seemed to hear a cat meowing.

I shook my head and looked forward with a flashlight. The passage in front of the room was empty. Not only did I not find any cats, even my third uncle was gone.

I slapped my head, feeling very annoyed, and secretly decided that the next time my third uncle and my uncle visited the haunted house, we must tie the two of us together with a black tiger knot, so as not to get lost.

This third uncle is really sorry for me. In total, he visited this haunted house only three times, and he threw me down three times.

Xu Ruoxi also found that the third uncle was gone, and asked tremblingly, "Where's Mr. Li?"

I cursed in my heart, what the hell is Mr. Li, I will never forgive him when I see him again.I replied angrily: "It's not because you are slow, how do I know where he went? Did you hear a cat meow just now?"

"Meowing? No?"

I nodded and signaled Xu Ruoxi to stop talking, and while slowly shining the flashlight, I listened quietly to the movement around me.

The meowing did not reappear, which made me suspect that I was hallucinating again.

"Strange..." Suddenly Xu Ruoxi muttered.

I was taken aback and quickly asked her in a low voice, "What's wrong?"

Xu Ruoxi pointed to the floor under her feet: "These places, in front, obviously Fei Yao threw a lot of things on them at that time, why... why are they all gone?"

"Maybe Fei Yao will come back later. Don't think about such useless things, go find Third Uncle." I waved my hand and walked towards the room with the flashlight in hand.

Xu Ruoxi stood on the spot and thought for a while, then hurriedly followed after seeing me go away.

And at this moment, another meow came over.

My body shook, and now I heard clearly, there was nothing wrong with it.

But this time even Xu Ruoxi heard it, she didn't dare to speak, she just leaned over and nodded at me.With the light of the flashlight, I found that her face had no blood at all, it was pale and frighteningly white.

Xu Ruoxi's appearance actually startled me.

I motioned her to back away, otherwise she would have been frightened to death instead of being killed by the ghost.

I made a calculation in my heart, could it be that the black cat came back by itself?If so, I think what happened here is probably related to this black cat.Maybe third uncle also stepped up the stairs and rushed over when he heard the cat meowing.

The situation here is unknown, to be honest, even though I have a mahogany sword in my hand, and that black tiger knot, but without my third uncle, I dare not rush into any room.

I motioned Xu Ruoxi to squat down, the meow was too sudden, I didn't know its location.

Sure enough, after waiting for less than 2 minutes, there was another meowing sound.

Xu Ruoxi and I pointed in one direction at the same time, which was the door of a room, obviously the cat should be in that room.

Relying on my courage, holding a mahogany sword in one hand and a flashlight in the other, I slowly leaned over, just about to open the door.Xu Ruoxi suddenly pulled me behind me, which startled me again.

I froze for a moment, and looked back at Xu Ruoxi mouthing at me, which after judgment seemed to be the word dressing table.

I was shocked, and it turned out that the accident happened in this room, the room with the dressing table and the ancient carved bed.

I hesitated for a moment, if it was that room, then Third Uncle most likely found it here as well.I have no reason not to go in.

I motioned to Xu Ruoxi and asked her to wait for me at the door.

I gently pushed the door open a crack.

The door may have been in disrepair for a long time, and the door hinge made a harsh creaking sound, which was particularly harsh in this empty attic.

I shone the flashlight through the crack of the door, just in time to see a figure swaying under the halo of the flashlight...
