The years of reselling the haunted house

"The coffin nails?"

The third uncle nodded, and took out another nail from his bag and handed it to me: "Actually, it is the iron nails used to cover the coffin. Generally, seven nails are used, commonly known as "offspring nails". It is said that this can make future generations prosperous. In ancient tombs, after the corpses and sacrificial objects were put in place, the most important step was to cover the coffin. The folks commonly called the last coffin nail "the nail". My coffin nail is a nail from a thousand-year-old tomb. It is a Rare baby."

I looked at the coffin nail somewhat familiarly, and remembered that Chu Liuyan once gave me a nail to deal with Jin Po's.Turns out it was the coffin nail.

The third uncle looked at the tree, and continued: "The coffin nails nailed to the tree are just ordinary nails in old graves. But seven nails with seven stars sealed the air pocket of the blood mulberry, which is enough to break the coffin." Its energy connection with that monster."

I asked, "Why does this tree have air pockets?"

"Yes." Ma Di suddenly said from the side: "I have said long ago that most people in the world think that plants and animals are two completely different species. But in fact, plants and animals also have a collective term called biological .Why is it called a living thing, because it is different from a dead thing. This shows that plants are also alive, and of course they also have air pockets. This blood mulberry is even more so. Among the tree species, there is a saying of the spirit in the tree."

I nodded: "Old Ma, are you alright?"

Ma Di shook his head: "Don't worry, it's an old bone, and it will be stronger if you beat it. Stand still, I'm going to have a look..."

With that said, Ma Di limped towards the monster on the tree.

I subconsciously wanted to stop him, but I thought that the reason why I called him here was to find out the secret of this strange tree man.And at this time, the monster obviously lost its fighting power, and Ma Su should be safe in the past.

Ma Su clutched his arms and faltered.

The monster found that Ma Di was leaning forward, and he was even more excited. He twisted his body frantically, but at this time his movements seemed a little clumsy, and he could only growl loudly.

Even so, the monster's visual impact is not small, and it looks very scary.

But Ma Di didn't have the slightest fear, and walked to less than two meters in front of the monster.

Within this range, as long as the monster still has the ability, it can kill Ma Su in minutes.

My heart was in my throat, and the third uncle said from the side: "Don't worry, my coffin nails are positioned very accurately, and the monster should not pose a threat for a while. It's just that it is very difficult to get rid of him now. We can see if the old horse can figure out his origin, and then find his weakness."

I nodded, paying attention to Ma Su's movements.

Ma Su confronted the monster for a while, and suddenly let out a scream.

This startled me, but the monster didn't attack, and I don't know why Ma Di made this sound.

Immediately afterwards, Ma Di moved forward again, heading straight for the monster.

"Old Ma, it's too dangerous, come back." I yelled to remind Ma Di.Although the monster is not moving now, it's hard to tell when you get close.

But Ma Su acted as if he didn't hear it, and walked up to the monster in three steps and two steps, and stretched out his hand to touch the strange man's face.

With a groan, the weird man opened his mouth and bit Ma Di's hand.

Ma Di quickly withdrew his hand, but he did not give up, and reached out to touch the monster's head again.

"Damn it. Are you crazy, old man? Come back soon." The third uncle was also in a hurry, wanting to go forward and pull Ma Su back.

Ma Di responded loudly: "Don't move, I'm fine."

I grabbed my third uncle and said in a low voice: "The old horse may have discovered something, just wait and see."

The weird man opened his mouth and let out a terrifying roar.

Ma Di still didn't give up, still standing there trying to identify something.

But at this moment, there was a sudden movement from the tree.We turned around and saw that the seven coffin nails that Uncle San had nailed on the tree were beating non-stop.

"Not good." The third uncle exclaimed: "This ordinary coffin nail can't hold back this bloody mulberry."

As soon as the third uncle finished speaking, three coffin nails were ejected from the tree.With three clangs, the coffin nails fell to the ground.

Immediately afterwards, the other four coffin nails were also ejected from their original positions.

I knew the situation was not good, so I hurriedly yelled at Ma Di: "Old Ma, come back quickly."

Uncle San is still too confident in the role of those coffin nails.It seems that during this period of time, the seven-star position guarded by the coffin nails has been receiving resistance from that blood mulberry and that strange person.In the end, he still couldn't hold it, and was rushed out by Xuesang.

The third uncle quickly went over to pick up those coffin nails, and wanted to step forward to become the seven-star position again.

But those coffin nails are scattered all over the place, and it is not possible to gather them together in a short time.

And as the coffin nails fell off, the originally limp vines became active again, dancing like a swimming snake, and slapped my third uncle and me.

The third uncle spat: "Damn it, let me show you how powerful I am. I don't know how many green onions I will sell."

I was amused, third uncle, where did this metaphor come from, are you good or not, does it have something to do with selling green onions?

The third uncle became ruthless, took the supposedly powerful coffin nails in his hands and continued to rush upwards.It looks like he wants to rivet the nails to the mulberry tree.

But far water can't quench near thirst, even though I yelled for Ma Su to come back.But the monster quickly regained its fighting power, the tree vines quickly entangled Ma Di, and the monster bit Ma Di's throat with one mouthful.

"It's over." My heart sank, even the gods probably couldn't save Ma Su at this time.That monster is almost close at hand to Ma Su.Moreover, the attack was as fast as lightning, and Ma Di didn't have much ability to resist, so he had to wait to die.

Chapter 284 The Unexpected Person

But just when the monster's mouth was about to bite Ma Di.

Ma Su suddenly said a word, which made the monster stop, and also surprised my third uncle and me.

The monster stared at Ma Di with its round eyes.At the same time, the tree vines that were attacking us also stopped in the air.

Ma Di shouted: Teacher Zhong!

My third uncle and I were ignorant of this sentence, but the effect is very obvious.

It can be said that this sentence Ma Di saved himself.

Ma Su obviously didn't have the heart to think about it. At this time, he was a little emotional, so that his voice was trembling a little, and even his outstretched hand was shaking violently.He pointed at the monster and said, "You... are you still alive? You don't know me anymore? I'm Ma Su..."

My third uncle and I were taken aback, and looked at each other. It seems that Ma Di didn't just yell out a word out of desperation. In fact, Ma Di should really know this strange person in front of him.

The third uncle remembered something, turned around and asked me: "Nephew, the old Matou said, what's the name of his dead teacher?"

I thought about it for a while, and said, "It seems to be called Zhong Hexian, Zhong Haixian, right?"

The third uncle was very helpless: "You know how to eat, what kind of seafood is Zhong Xianhai."

"That's right, that's right, it's Zhong Xianhai." I nodded, and suddenly remembered that Ma Su called that strange person Teacher Zhong, could it be...

My third uncle and I said at the same time: "Is he Zhong Xianhai?"

We once heard Ma Di mention that his teacher, or his mentor Zhong Xianhai, was also an academic madman. Many of Ma Di's character and stubbornness in the academic world originated from this mentor.Zhong Xianhai was not only obsessed with academics all his life, but also died of academics because of it.The specific root cause is because of the study of the fruit of wolf tooth grass, dull head purple.

When Ma Su mentioned it, I still felt admiration for Zhong Xianhai.Even feel his greatness, his extraordinary.

But Ma Di said with certainty that his teacher was dead.For this reason, Ma Di still misses him very much.

How could the dead Zhong Xianhai appear here?

Could it be that he is not Zhong Xianhai, but another teacher surnamed Zhong?After all, there is more than one person with the surname Zhong.

I quickly dismissed the idea.Because from Ma Su's excited expression, one can tell that the strange person in front of him is probably Zhong Xianhai.

Otherwise, I can't think of anyone else who can make Professor Wei so excited.

When I was communicating with my third uncle, Ma Su and that strange man kept staring at each other.

Needless to say, Ma Di, after Ma Di said that, that strange man had a complicated expression on his face.Surprised, surprised, puzzled...

The strange man's mouth opened and closed, and he kept making ahhh sounds from his throat.It looked like the weirdo was going to say something, but he couldn't say a complete sentence for a while.

Ma Di was also very anxious. He danced and said to the weird man, "You can understand me, right? If so, just nod your head..."

The strange man's throat made another sound, but he still couldn't speak, but nodded quickly.

Ma Di happily said: "I didn't admit my mistake, you are Teacher Zhong, Teacher Zhong Xianhai, aren't you?"

My third uncle and I are very nervous, and we are also very concerned about this issue.

The weird man nodded again, and this time, a voice came from his throat: "M...MA...Ma..."

Ma Di nodded again and again: "Yes, I am Ma Di, do you recognize me?"

Then, Ma Di turned around and shouted to us: "He is my teacher, my teacher Zhong Xianhai, I just said why there are fluorescent bugs here? And the anti-theft door is the same as our laboratory. It turns out that my teacher is here ...He's not dead, he's not dead..."

Ma Di was like crazy, standing there yelling, even tears flowed out.

It can be seen that Ma Su respects this teacher so much that he loses control of his emotions.

The third uncle went to help Ma Di, and persuaded him: "Old Ma, can you calm down? Many things are not clear now, look at this old monster has become like this, you can still be sure that he is your teacher ?”

Ma Di's face changed, and he pointed at his third uncle and cursed: "You old bastard, if you say that my teacher is a monster, I'm in a hurry with you."

The third uncle also retorted: "You old horse, can you calm down. Even if he is your teacher, so what? How could he become like this? He has become like this, and what kind of troubles can he do? Anti-theft door? This is obviously someone else behind it."

I also hurried over and said: "Yes, old horse. The most urgent thing now is to find out how your teacher became like this, and who made him like this. And... get him What is the purpose of doing this?"

Ma Su is a smart person, and he was excited just now, but after my third uncle and I said this, he immediately realized it.He turned around abruptly and looked at Zhong Xianhai.

"Teacher, can you still talk?"

"Ah...speak...can..." Although Zhong Xianhai's language ability is not as good as that of normal people, he can already speak a few words intermittently.This is much stronger than just a few monosyllabic sounds at first.

It seems that Zhong Xianhai did not completely lose his language ability, but because of his prolonged silence and some physical defects, his language ability will be greatly degraded.Now under the guidance of Ma Di, it is gradually recovering.

"Teacher, didn't everyone say you were dead? How did you become like this?"

Zhong Xianhai raised his arm and pointed to his heart: "Here... is dead..."

Then he pointed to the blood mulberry tree: "It's alive..."

My third uncle and I looked at each other, we were at a loss as to what was dead or alive.But Ma Di nodded: "I see. Then who made you like this?"

Zhong Xianhai wanted to say something, so he looked at my third uncle and me.

Ma Di said: "They are my friends, they are all from my own family. Teacher, tell me..."

Zhong Xianhai rolled his big eyes, still a little worried.

The third uncle gave me a wink, I understood, and patted Ma Su on the shoulder: "Old Ma, talk slowly, we will wait for you over there."

Ma Su nodded.

My third uncle and I took a few steps back, away from where Zhong Xianhai and Ma Di were.

Although Zhong Xianhai recovered part of his language function, there were many words that we couldn't understand even after hearing them.Like what he just said, dead or alive.But Ma Su is different, he knows the biological terminology Zhong Xianhai said, and with Zhong Xianhai's teachers and students, he can know many things that can only be understood but cannot be expressed in words.

It is enough for Ma Di and Zhong Xianhai to communicate.I believe he can get a lot of useful information from Zhong Xianhai.

Chapter 285

Leaving Ma Di and Zhong Xianhai talking, my third uncle and I got out of our bodies and came under the blood mulberry tree.

Because Zhong Xianhai was talking with Ma Di, and he was connected with the blood mulberry tree, so the blood mulberry tree stood there quietly at this time.The vines on the tree are also obediently hanging on the branches or coiled on the tree.

In fact, the blood mulberry tree at this time is more like a tree in our traditional sense.

On the side of the tree facing the window, a deep tree hole appeared.The bark there split open on both sides, which is where Zhong Xianhai came out of the tree.

I noticed that in the tree hole, a mark could be clearly seen.It was the print of a human being, with a head, torso and arms, but no legs.Apparently, it was because Zhong Xianhai had been hiding in the tree hole all year round, so that his body was already in close contact with the tree, and the two almost became one.And his two legs had almost degenerated, so he couldn't leave any marks in the tree hole.

Other than that, there's nothing unusual about this tree.The reason why it is weird and bizarre is because of Zhong Xianhai.

And at this time, from the tree, fireflies were still crawling continuously, and those fireflies climbed up to the ceiling.At the same time, there were also many weeds crawling back into the trees on the ceiling.

Those gnats seemed to concentrate on doing this one thing, and they turned a blind eye to my third uncle and me.

In the whole house, apart from the tree and Zhong Xianhai, all that was left were the corpses of the four men in purple on the ground.

And the third uncle did turn his attention to those corpses.He walked over and stared at the corpses in a daze.

I leaned over and asked, "Third Uncle, what should we do with these corpses? Do you want us to report the crime after we get out?"

The third uncle shook his head: "In an extraordinary period, an extraordinary event requires an extraordinary method. It is useless to call the police. We must destroy these corpses without leaving any traces."

"Why?" I asked puzzled.

"Because...they are members of the Fire Soul Group." Third Uncle stared at the corpses with a hint of fear in his words.

Looking at those corpses, I felt that both the third uncle and Ma Di regarded the Huohun group as extremely dangerous objects.But I don't feel this way.I got the impression that the members of the Fire Soul Group had nothing special about them except for their great skills.So I also don't understand why the third uncle's face changed when he talked.

The third uncle then asked: "Yangzi, when you entered this hotel for the first time, did you see two people?"

I nodded: "To be exact, I saw one person. The other one saw just a corpse. Both of them died in the hotel, and the one I saw died in front of my eyes."

"At that time, the Fire Soul Talisman of the Fire Soul Group was also pasted on the door?"

"Yes. Pang Dahai and I didn't know the depth at the time, and tore up that talisman."

The third uncle pondered for a moment, then said: "That's right. I speculated that the top executives of the Huohun team got the inside information of this hotel. In this hotel, to be precise, there is something they want in this room. So the first batch of people was sent, that is, the two people who entered the hotel before you. But they oversimplified the situation, and the two people who came here were not humane and skilled enough, and they hadn’t touched the core secrets yet. , and died. So..."

"So...they sent the second batch of people, which are these four masters. They are indeed very skilled. I saw that they were on par with that Zhong Xianhai."
