Obviously, Chen Ang's choice surprised Mr. Luke. After carefully observing Chen Ang and the others for a while, he said, "Of course, Mr. Constantine. This master key can open all the doors of this house ... "
As if Chen Ang didn't respond, he still smiled and said, "It is my request that is sudden!"
"But who else has any plans for this house?" Laughed attorney Luke. "This house may have been valuable before, but it is very old. It has lived here for more than four generations, and we haven't Money guarantees this big house, so it's shabby and it's a rural town again-it's really worthless! "
Nick interrupted: "But there must be many antiques in such an old house! That is a very valuable thing! So this key cannot be given to him ..."
Attorney Luke smiled: "Both are trustworthy people, and the 200,000 heritage can help us a lot-we plan to leave here after we get the heritage, we are older! We need to be better With the money, we plan to move to New Orleans. "
"Furthermore, all the antiques were put away by us and placed in a house in the attic. There is the only door in this house that cannot be opened with a master key."
Chen Ang politely accepted the key and thanked him, "Thank you for your generosity and the conversation with you was really enjoyable. You are a knowledgeable person. For the history and times of this town, you will It ’s like witnessing it with my own eyes. I ’m really interested in history. This house has a long history. It ’s like a gallery of time, some old-style styles and features, which are very well preserved here ... we visit Just click on it? "
Attorney Luke welcomed: "After dinner, you can browse as you like. It's too old! It's no use other than history!"
Several people leaned in front of the fireplace for a while and had dinner in the restaurant. The dinner was chickpeas with mashed potatoes. It was a classic country flavor. After dinner, lawyer Luke said sorry, "I am used to eating Sleep after dinner, you know-the habits of the country people, our night life here is very boring, and usually sleeps very early! "
Chen Ang and Nick glanced at each other and nodded their understanding-the cleavage between American cities and rural towns is very serious, the international metropolis has a nightlife, and developed nightlife, but the rural towns are simple and boring. Traditional Puritan lifestyle still dominates here, although now rural towns are also dominated by entertainment-young people's party and entertainment life is no worse than in the city.
But the couple is very traditional-they are traditional like the most conservative American Puritans.
Some hump-backed hostess took Chen Ang to the room where they rested. The room was on the second floor. When the door was opened, a slight musty smell floated out. The house was quite large, although it had a musty smell, but it was clean. , Chen Ang touched the desktop, there was no dust on it.
It's strange that this is a big house with thirty houses.
And Chen Ang arrived suddenly-he arrived one afternoon earlier than Nick without any advance notice.
People who live in large houses know that if you want to maintain the house for a long time, it is simply unrealistic. Kitchens without the habit of firing will fall into dust. As long as they are not used, dust will accumulate at the corners of the bedroom where they sleep. This is still Young people's rooms, not to mention two widowed middle-aged couples.
How can they have the energy to clean up more than thirty rooms? ——It should be covered with white cloth everywhere, and most of the unused rooms should be sealed up.
Chen Ang dropped his luggage and went to Nick. Nick lived next to him, and when he stepped in, he found that it was also very clean-it had a musty smell, but it didn't fall into the dust, not even in the corner.
Nick didn't talk about Chen Ang suddenly called him here, but like a chat, naturally took out some information from the owner of this house. Their words are clever and they exchanged a lot of information. It is very natural, and at the same time, nothing about his identity was disclosed.
Enough for the eavesdropper to understand nothing.
"There are many portraits and sculptures of religious symbols, including the Virgin, the Son, and some Biblical characters." Nick joked: "You should be very interested!"
"I'm more curious ..." Chen Ang pointed to the top of the big bed in Nick's room, the thing hanging from the ceiling directly opposite it, which was a button-sized doll, about a slap-sized doll, the doll's The other organs of the face—the nose and mouth—are painted with graffiti-like brushes.
"How do you feel when you lie in bed, open your eyes and look at this thing?"
Nick was not afraid. When Chen Aang said this, he was a little curious. When he lay back, a black bald head fell on the bedside, his eyes were facing the position of the doll: "It's pretty cute ... if I There is a daughter. I will play with her with her. You know that I will be the kind of father who can lay down and have a good affinity. "
"You have to have a daughter first!" Chen Ang blandly hit.
"And before you have a daughter, you first have a wife, but you don't ..."
Nick lay on the bed and said, "I just went to the toilet, can you imagine? Such a big house doesn't even have a mirror! I was curious for a moment, and asked the woman who brought me over, she said: The mirror is the door , Will make you see bad things, want to live alone in this kind of place, it is best not to see the mirror. So ... "
"So she sneaked through your luggage?" Chen Ang calmly said.
"She has very light hands and feet, but I can still find ... It's not easy to hide from us like us." Nick said: "Sounds, she also turned over your luggage. But the secret of people like us will not be So easily found ... Is she looking for a mirror? "
"Everything the superstitious old man does is possible!" Chen Ang didn't seem surprised.
"And did you smell it?" Nick impulse his nose and got up and sniffed. He turned to Chen Ang and said, "There is a faint odor here ... There are many kinds of odors, which happens to be something I am particularly familiar with. "The relaxed look on Nick's face gradually faded. His eyes sharpened at this moment, but this feeling soon disappeared.
He has become a black guy who likes to be funny again.
Chen Ang walked around the house. He lifted the stand on the ground with his feet. Under the stand at the door, two straight lines were drawn with white and red powder to block the door.
"Does this have any special significance?" Nick asked.
"Salt can prevent evil damage, and red brick powder has the effect of blocking the enemy's approach in witchcraft in Haiti." Chen Ang twisted the white powder and easily determined that it was salt-and still unfiltered. Coarse salt, red brick powder is a bit difficult to judge, but fortunately he is familiar with the mysterious culture of various countries and regions.
"We usually use cinnabar there!" Chen Ang lowered the carpet.
"Is cinnabar more useful, or salt and red brick more useful? Www.wuxiaspot.com Nick asked curiously:" I have never seen you handle a case! " I want to say that when I saw your resume, I was really taken aback. "
"In the hands of experts, it works. We follow the rules ..."
"Oh! Tell me the truth!" Nick said, "Now we are partners, aren't we? Tell me some little secrets of your industry!"
Chen Ang reluctantly said: "Okay! I said some ... In folk witchcraft, there is a principle that is important-believe it, but do n’t believe it! Some magic is based on energy, just like Kama Taj, The mage collects energy and turns it into a weapon, so I say they act according to the rules. But there is some magic, they rely on faith to work. "
"Mage's will make it work!"
"So at that time, the will of the subject was also very important. Once you do not believe in witchcraft, its power will greatly decrease, because the world is material, witchcraft is conscious, and consciousness can act on consciousness, but Difficult to act on matter. "
"So, strengthen your faith."
