Strange Tales of the Ghosts - Chapter 504

[Chapter 504 Headless General (4)]

After dark, Luo Sichen and Xuehu hid in the tin cabinet. In a small space, the two sat opposite each other. In order not to suffocate, Luo Sichen left a small gap in the cabinet door. As for the office door , he left it wide open and turned on the lights. Of course, Luo Sichen didn’t want those workers to come out and make trouble, so he told Zhou Yongcai and asked Zhou Yongcai to tell those workers not to come out when they heard any noise at night. Waiting quietly, Luo Sichen and Xuehu waited in the tin cabinet for more than two hours, but there was still no movement. Xuehu’s ears were sensitive, and he was confident that there was still no movement outside, so he asked in a low voice, “Sichen, you Said he would come tonight?”

“I don’t know.” Luo Sichen leaned his head against the tin cabinet and smiled. “But I’m sure that if he doesn’t come today, he will come tomorrow.”

“Why?”

“No why, a feeling, don’t you think that headless ghost is strange? Appears once and disappears for a few days.”

” It’s a bit strange.” Xuehu replied in a low voice, she felt what Luo Sichen was thinking, but Luo Sichen didn’t tell her, so she couldn’t ask any more questions, so she could only continue to wait.

In the middle of the night, it was much cooler in the tin cabinet, as if it was suddenly cooler, Luo Sichen was almost falling asleep when he waited, and suddenly, Xuehu shook it gently.

“Sichen.”

“What’s wrong?” Luo Sichen opened his eyes.

Xuehu leaned over his head, snorted, and looked out through the crack of the tin door…

The lights in the office were on, and a man appeared at the door, a man in armor, holding a worn out The axe stood motionless by the door, Xuehu slowly looked up, and sure enough, it was the guy with no head, but that guy didn’t seem to have any idea to come in, he just stood motionless by the door. After a long time, when Xuehu was considering whether to go out and take down the headless ghost, the headless ghost moved, the armor rubbed with a screeching sound, and the headless ghost swung the axe, slashing up and down, moving mechanically. And slow. Luo Sichen also saw it, holding his breath, ready to act at any time.

At this moment, the headless ghost seemed to hear something, turned around and ran away, Xuehu and Luo Sichen rushed out of the closet, desperately chasing after them. Logically speaking, Xuehu’s speed was not comparable to other creatures. Yes, but when she chased out, except for the mud on the construction site and the machinery on the construction site, there was no one around. Luo Sichen was so angry that he scolded himself: “Damn, I’m a pig brain, if I start early, it will be solved.”

“I don’t blame you, it’s because he ran too fast.” Xuehu comforted gently.

Luo Sichen knew that Xuehu was right, not because he was too slow, but because the other party was too fast, so who was the other party? Even a ghost should have a breath to stay, he didn’t feel it at all, what’s the reason? Are people pretending to be ghosts? It’s impossible, no one can run so fast, not to mention faster than himself, and even Xuehu can’t catch up. monster. Hearing Luo Sichen’s thoughts, Xuehu shook his head: “No, he is not only a non-human, non-ghost, but also a demon.” Xuehu himself is a demon, and he knows that demons have demonic aura. Although some demons are very good at hiding, It can leave some breath, but what Xuehu smells is only corpse aura, there is no goblin smell in it.

Luo Sichen and Xuehu walked back to the office. After sitting on the chair, Luo Sichen began to think about why he couldn’t figure it out. At this time, Xuehu reminded softly: “Why is the door open, and he still doesn’t come in?”

“Does he know that we are inside?” Luo Sichen looked up at Xuehu.

Xuehu shook his head: “No, with the skills of the two of us, he shouldn’t be able to detect it. If he has that ability, we should also be able to sense his presence.”

“You’re right.” Luo Si Chen nodded, he couldn’t figure it out either.

Xuehu sighed and looked at the room casually. Suddenly, she found something under the cabinet. She couldn’t see it clearly. It was a dark piece. Xuehu was curious and reached under the cabinet. Luo Sichen thought that Xuehu took out the clapboard, and hurriedly said: “You don’t need to do it, I’ll get the cabinet later.”

“No, there is something underneath.” Xuehu stretched out his hand and finally reached the thing. Pulling it out, he saw that it was a rotten wooden board. The color of the wooden board was very dark. Xuehu exclaimed: “Sichen, is he looking for this?”

“Let me see.” Luo Sichen walked to Xuehu’s side, looked at it, and said to himself: “Could this be the coffin board?”

“It’s a bit like it.” Xuehu nodded.

Luo Sichen turned the board over and saw that the back of the board was engraved with patterns. It was said to be a pattern, and it was a bit like a painting, but it was a little blurry and the distinction was not very clear. Luo Sichen pointed to a few recognized patterns and said. : “This is a flower…this is a fish…and a bird…this…” There was another pattern that Luo Sichen couldn’t understand.

Xuehu leaned over, looked at it carefully, looked up at Luo Sichen and replied, “The back of the bird is armor.”

“Armor?” Luo Sichen frowned.

Xuehu nodded, she was sure that it was the armor, because the shape on it was almost the same as the armor that the headless ghost was wearing. Luo Sichen took the wooden board, sat on the chair and began to study slowly. The research found that the pattern of the entire board, apart from the visible things such as flowers, plants, fish and birds, were some incomprehensible symbols, not even half a word. Luo Sichen strongly doubted whether this thing belonged to the era before there was writing. Xuehu laughed after hearing this. Although she has been dead for a thousand years, she still understands this knowledge and corrected with a smile: “Luo Yan’s book says that However, before there were no words, there were no wooden coffins.”

“Was it written in her book?” Luo Sichen looked at Xuehu blankly. For so long, he hadn’t seriously read any of Luo Yan’s novels.

Xuehu nodded and replied: “Yes, she mentioned it in the book.”

“Then what age is this thing?” Luo Sichen chose to believe in Xuehu’s memory, because he lacked part of the experience of growing up, naturally Some knowledge is not understood.

Xuehu shook his head: “I don’t know, but I think these patterns seem to express something…”

“…No way…the male version of Xiaoyanzi?” Luo Sichen remembered the TV series “Huanzhugege” he had watched, in which the heroine Xiaoyanzi could not write, so she used painting to express what she wanted to say , Although this idea is a bit ridiculous, Luo Sichen thinks it is not impossible. He really wants to know what is on this board. Before that, he has to find someone to help repair this board.

Just when Luo Sichen was calling a friend, Xuehu found two more understandable patterns, one was a guzheng and the other was an incense burner, but no matter what, she couldn’t connect the information together. After Luo Sichen finished the phone call, seeing Xuehu looking so seriously, he asked with a smile, “Have you found something new?”

“…” Xuehu shook his head and looked at Luo Sichen. “Are we going to take this back?”

“No.” How could Luo Sichen take this thing with him? If the headless ghost is really looking for this thing, then it is very likely that he will follow Luo Sichen Running in a thousand mountains and rivers of dust, won’t everyone know about it by then? Such strange things will be harmonized. Luo Sichen is afraid that it will involve irrelevant people, and that he will be harmonized. When that happens, if no one saves him, it will be miserable.

Xuehu smiled slightly: “So, we’re going to stay here?”

“I won’t be able to leave today, my friend will come over tomorrow.”

“Tomorrow?”

“Yeah.” Luo Sichen nodded and unbuttoned the cuff of his shirt , said casually: “He is half an expert in cultural relics, and has always liked to play with these ancient things. He has repaired many things that are impossible to repair, such as the wine cup of the Tang Dynasty, the hairpin of the Yuan Dynasty…”

“Then Will he be able to fix this?”

“There shouldn’t be a big problem…” After thinking about it, Luo Sichen had a smile on the corner of his mouth. The madman he knew, as long as it was a cultural relic he wanted to know about Desperately trying to repair it, it has been proven countless times that as long as she is interested, the success rate of repair can be controlled at 80%.

Xuehu listened and nodded gently… This night, the two of them slept in the office for half the night. As soon as it was dawn, Zhou Yongcai came. Zhou Yongcai came to the office for a very simple purpose. He didn’t catch the headless ghost, so when he heard Luo Sichen said he was almost there, the expression on his face was a little disappointed. Luo Sichen was afraid that Zhou Yongcai would think too much, so he comforted: “Don’t worry, if I’m here, no one will

be killed.” Si Chen, a young man who could capture such a fierce “ghost”, left with the idea of resignation.

Seeing Zhou Yongcai leaving, Xuehu said with a smile, “He doesn’t seem to believe you.”

“…Really?” Luo Sichen raised his eyebrows, put his face in front of Xuehu, and asked with a wicked smile, “Xuefu …”

“Hmm…” Xuehu’s eyes widened, such a close distance made her a little shy, and with Luo Sichen’s ambiguous movements, she felt like she was starting to think too much.

Luo Sichen smiled: “Guess what that person would look like when he found out that you were a vixen?”

“…” Xuehu didn’t expect Luo Sichen to be teasing himself, he turned his head away from Luo Sichen and endured it. He smiled and replied: “If you don’t tell me, how would he know.”

Luo Sichen laughed. He felt that Xuehu was getting more and more cute, so he couldn’t help playing with Xuehu just now. Just when he was complacent, the phone rang. Now , after answering the call, Luo Sichen heard a roar similar to ‘Handsome Ma’…

“Luo Sichen, what kind of plane are you doing? Is it Shanxi or Shaanxi?!”

Luo Sichen was stunned for a moment and replied: “Shanxi, ah “…”

“Luo Sichen! Do you know that my time is precious?! You told me last night in Shaanxi that I am already in Shaanxi! Did you hear that?! I am in Shaanxi now!”
