Chapter 250: Weird 【12】
Lan Yu is an arrogant and arrogant son. Because of his family background, he looks down on this and the other. Even his own father can't let him down. He can only listen to his cousin Lan Baoer.
In front of Lan Baoer, Lan Yu behaved very well and looked like a very good baby. When he asked him to apologize, he really bowed his head and apologized.
Xue Yuanjing looked at Lan Yu, who looked feminine, delicate, and hermaphrodite like a girl. Seeing that his apology was really sincere, he didn't care, and said, "It's not an example."
Xue Yuanjing didn't care anymore, Yuan Jia didn't bother to bother.
Lan Baoer was relieved when she saw that the matter had been revealed, and ordered the maid beside her to offer her an apology, which was extremely thorough.
Xingye and Heiye felt a lot more relieved when they saw that the matter was resolved peacefully. Whether it was Yuan Jia, the weird boss, or the legendary Lan family head, they were not easy to provoke. If the matter could not be solved, it would be a fight between the two bosses. They were affected by Chiyu.
Lan Baoer stayed in the Night Watch for a few days, and educated his younger brother Lan Yu well, so that he can learn to restrain himself, and don't follow others to spy on other people's privacy just because he has an invisible jade.
As for Lan Yu's thinking about Xue Yuanjing's method of concealing his spiritual sense, no one in the know said the fact that Xue Yuanjing was actually an ordinary person without spiritual sense, and no one who didn't know would dare to covet Lan Yu's lesson. .
Lan Yu, who had been taught a lesson by Lan Baoer, has since restrained a lot of her arrogance, and even ran away when she saw Xue Yuanjing.
Xue Yuanjing still kept removing ghosts when he had time, and used yin to feed Father Xue and Mother Xue.
One month after Lan Baoer's departure, the court sent a strange piece of information to the night watchman, requesting the night watchman to investigate the strangeness that caused huge casualties.
Xingye and Heiye informed Xue Yuanjing that the three of them were in charge of the Night Watch Division and the most powerful ghost slayers, so they would hold a small meeting first in case of trouble.
Xingye shared the strange information from the court to Hei Ye and Xue Yuanjing to watch: "This strange generation is called a 'knocking woman'. According to the survivors, they heard a young woman knocking on the door after nightfall, and they heard the sound of a knock on the door. The woman who came here pitifully called the door. It's just that they didn't open the door, so they survived by luck, and the people who opened the door were all dead..."
Sitting next to Xue Yuanjing, Yuan Jia, who had no sense of existence, heard the strange way of killing the 'knock on the door', and he suddenly came to his senses, interjected and asked, "That is to say, in response to the 'knock woman' call, just will die?"
Xingye nodded and said, "Because the knocking time of the 'knock on the door' woman's door is uncertain, and sometimes people are not asleep, when they hear someone knocking on the door, they will subconsciously respond and open the door. This strange bird killed tens of thousands of people in the south, The ability is getting stronger and stronger. At first, as long as you don't open the door, you can survive. Later, as long as you respond, even if you don't open the door, the 'knocking woman' will break in and kill."
Yuan Jia's eyes flashed with excitement. His death rule is that anyone who enters Xuejiazhuang without knocking on the door will die. Now his rules have evolved to allow Xuejiazhuang to swallow people outside and force it into the scope of death rules.
That is to say, even if someone has no idea of entering the village in Xuejiazhuang, he can forcibly move Xuejiazhuang, let outsiders enter the village, and swallow it into Xuejiazhuang. This kind of person who was forced to enter Xuejiazhuang also did not knock on the door, and his life and death were in his thoughts.
But he was still not satisfied and wanted to make his own rules more perfect.
And this weird 'knocking woman' just partially complements his death rules.
In fact, from the perspective of death rules, the 'knock woman' is very restrained, because the 'knock woman' will knock on the door, which can perfectly avoid Yuanjia's death rules. Once the 'knock woman' is knocking Entering Xuejiazhuang behind the door, that is, Yuan Jia falls into the death rule of 'the woman knocking on the door', and he will be suppressed by the rule of 'the woman knocking on the door'.
Of course, Yuan Jia wouldn't let such a death rule to restrain his weird wandering outside. He didn't want a 'knocking woman' suddenly came outside his Xuejiazhuang one day.
If he can forcibly bring it into the scope of Xuejiazhuang before the 'knock woman' knocks on the door, and let the 'knock woman' fall into his death rules, he can swallow this strange creature that restrains him and complement his own. death rule.
At that time, whether it is a ghost master, a ghost or something weird, as long as it is within the scope of his death rules, he will surely die, and there will be no way out.
And the scope of his death rules can be moved as he wishes, and then he can be called truly invincible, able to protect his younger brother in this increasingly terrifying world, and wait for the reunion of the Xue family in the future.
Xingye, Heiye, and Xue Yuanjing discussed the strange situation of the "knocking woman" for a while and analyzed its weaknesses.
Yuan Jia suddenly said: "If the position of the 'knock woman' can be determined, as long as I don't give her a chance to knock on the door, I can forcibly include it within the scope of my death rules and restrict it."
He didn't talk about annexing it. People were separated from each other. He was worried that these ghost masters knew that he could annex other strange things and become stronger, which would prevent him from dealing with the "knocking woman", or they might secretly find a way to deal with him.
When Xue Yuanjing heard Yuan Jia say this, he didn't immediately show joy like Xingye and Heiye did. Instead, he glanced at Yuan Jia worriedly and hesitated.
Hei Ye decided: "Since Mr. Xue can deal with this strange creature, that's great. We will leave the matter of finding out the whereabouts of the 'knock on the door' to us."
＜＜＜＜＜＜
At night, the mansion assigned to Xue Yuanjing by the night watchman turned into a villa without knowing it. Two big red lanterns were hung at the door, illuminating the plaque with the words 'Xuejiazhuang', and the font of the dragon flying and phoenix dancing was dyed with an ominous layer. of blood.
In the Xuejiazhuang, Xue Yuanjing asked worriedly: "Brother, weirdness is different from ghosts, and it is not so easy to deal with. Why did you take the initiative to ask Ying today?"
Since joining the Night Watch, Xue Yuanjing has a deep understanding of the difference between ghosts and weirdness.
Ghosts are ghosts of injustice after death, or spiritual animals become special ghosts after death. They are strong or weak, but most of them can be eliminated.
The weirdness is different, the weirdness is actually a weird mutation, and the mutation may be a living thing or a dead thing.
For example, Yuan Jia gave Xue Yuanjing the strange items 'painting the ground as a prison hairpin' and "walking the yin flag", that is, the dead things have changed and have special strange rules, but these strange rules do not cause death.
And Yuanjia like Xue Yuanjing's soul after the death of Xue Yuanjing has changed and turned into a strange, together with the influence of Xue Jiazhuang, forming a terrifying strangeness.
The 'knock on the door' woman is also a strange human shape, which is caused by strange changes in the soul of a person after death.
Weird and inexplicable, and indestructible. There are many kinds of weird rules, maybe his eldest brother will encounter the strange rules of Xiang Ke, which will cause his eldest brother to be restricted and suppressed.
Xue Yuanjing was very worried in his heart. He always took on tasks to deal with ghosts. He never took on the task of investigating strange things, because he was worried that it would affect Yuan Jia.
Yuan Jia pressed the post in his heart, knowing that Xue Yuanjing was caring about him.
A gentle smile appeared on his face, and he said, "Yuanjing, do you know what my weird rules are, eldest brother?"
Xue Yuanjing said: "Big brother, I don't want to know, you don't have to tell me, it's fine for you to know this rule alone, don't leak it out."
The power of weirdness lies in the power of innate rules, but the power of rules is not perfect, there are loopholes. The ghost master is to find out the weird rules in the process of investigating the weirdness, and then drill the loopholes to limit them.
Xue Yuanjing didn't want his brother's rules to be leaked out and then targeted. He didn't want to know, after all, there were so many weird items, maybe he might be controlled by someone who used weird items to tell his brother's weakness.
Yuan Jia didn't mind at all, he said with a smile: "My weird rule is that anyone who enters the Xuejiazhuang without knocking on the door will die. If you knock on the door, you will be fine."
Xue Yuanjing's face changed suddenly, he quickly thought of the strange way of killing the 'knock on the door', and stood up from his chair in shock: "Brother, you must not go to see the 'knock woman'!"
This 'knock on the door' is clearly designed to restrain his brother's weirdness!
Yuan Jia comfortably pressed his shoulders and sat him down again: "Yuanjing, listen to eldest brother."
Xue Yuanjing calmed down a little and sat down.
Since Big Brother dared to take this matter, he must have other plans.
Yuan Jia continued: "But before outsiders knock on the door of Xuejiazhuang, I can forcibly move Xuejiazhuang's position and let the other party enter Xuejiazhuang directly."
Xue Yuanjing's worried expression faded, revealing a hint of a smile. This "rogue" approach can completely avoid rule loopholes.
Yuan Jia said: "Yuanjing, don't watch this weird rule restrain me. If I can catch it in Xuejiazhuang and swallow it, I can complete the rules and have no loopholes at all. So this good opportunity is absolutely Can't let it go."
Xue Yuanjing hesitated for a while, then nodded slowly, and said in a low voice, "Then eldest brother, you must be careful, can't you control whether or not to show Xue Jiazhuang at will? Don't call Xue Jiazhuang until you meet the 'knock on the door' woman. It knocks on the door."
Yuan Jia nodded with a smile: "It's natural."
He didn't say that Xue Jiazhuang was hidden to a certain extent, and the living people could not see it, but ghosts and strange people could see Xue Jiazhuang. door.
It's just that there is no need to say these words to worry Xue Yuanjing.
This opportunity is a good time for him to complete the rules, otherwise he will miss this weird one, and he will not know when he will find a weird one with similar rules next time.
Moreover, even if he accidentally broke into Xuejiazhuang after being knocked on the door by the "knocking woman", it is not impossible for him to escape. He never fought an uncertain battle.
＜＜＜＜＜＜
With the support of the court's intelligence, the night watchman quickly got the strange whereabouts of the 'knock woman'.
After all, people in a certain place often die in the middle of the night after the knock on the door, which always attracts the attention of the government.
Although the imperial court has not announced the existence of ghosts and strange things to the public, the officials all over the country know about it, and they have also sent ghost exterminators to sit in town. Just like the remote Qingyang County, there is Master Yuan, the ghost master, sitting there.
The ‘knocking woman’ murdered again, the government reported it, and the court was the first to get the news, and immediately sent a message to the night watchman.
This bizarre kills a lot of people, and the bizarre rules are not easy to crack. Although it is easy to find that after hearing the knocking sound of the 'knock on the door' and calling the door, you can escape without opening the door and not responding, but I want to limit the containment of this bizarre animal. But extremely difficult.
There are no geographical restrictions on the 'knock on the door woman'. When the 'Xuejiazhuang' could move around, it attracted the attention of the court, not to mention the strangeness of the 'knock on the door', which has no geographical restrictions, is more serious than the 'Xuejiazhuang'.
The three giants of the Night Watch were dispatched together, and the court was fully cooperating.
When they learned that the 'knock woman' appeared in a small town to the south and started killing people in the middle of the night, in order to let it stay in this small town and wait for the three powerful ghost exterminators of the night watchman to solve it, the government did not disclose the method of avoiding death. .
Previously, in order to limit the growth of the "knocking woman", any city that found a "knocking woman" strictly ordered all the residents in the city to prohibit opening the door to those who knocked on the door at night.
This time, the government chose to keep silent, let the 'knock woman' kill in this small town in the middle of the night, and hide the cause of those people's death, delaying the 'knock woman' with the lives of those unknowing ordinary residents. , leaving it in this small town.
Xue Yuanjing and Yuan Jia knew that for every day of delay, many innocent people died at night, so Yuan Jia called out Xuejiazhuang directly and said to Xingye and Heiye, "Enter Xuejiazhuang, I will just move over there."
'Xuejiazhuang' can be moved at will. Xingye and Heiye have long known about this, but they thought this movement was limited, but they didn't expect that it could be used to travel.
Xingye and Heiye resisted their instinctive fear of Yuan Jia and followed Xue Yuanjing into Xuejiazhuang.
Seeing the very normal scene in Xuejiazhuang, Xingye and Heiye not only did not let go of their fear, but became even more afraid.
This is a weird old nest, it looks so normal, it feels even more terrifying.
The two followed Xue Yuanjing's side inseparably, and only when they were by his side would they feel safe.
Xue Yuanjing glanced at the two colleagues who were not very cowardly. He felt amused in his heart, but on the surface he pretended not to see anything. After all, he was also the second of the three giants of the night watchman. Be kind.
After almost a few words, Yuan Jia said, "It's already here."
Yuan Jia threw Xingye and Heiye out: "I'll leave it to you. If you find that weird one, send us a message."
Then they found themselves in the wilderness, Xuejiazhuang disappeared, and Xue Yuanjing disappeared.
Xingye and Heiye looked at each other, "Why do you feel like we are being treated as pathfinders?"
"Cough, let's go first to find the weird whereabouts, as long as we don't enter the house, it will be fine."
＜＜＜＜＜＜
Yuan Jia and Xue Yuanjing moved back to the headquarters of the Night Watch Division.
He just left Starry Night and Heiye outside the small town where the "Knocking Woman" haunted, and moved back so quickly because he was worried that if he entered the city, he would be targeted by the "Knocking Woman".
Because he and Xuejiazhuang are one body, don't look at him sometimes when he appears alone, Xuejiazhuang does not appear, in fact Xuejiazhuang is hidden, and this concealment effect is useless to the strange.
Yuan Jia didn't want to be knocked on the door of Xuejiazhuang by a "knocking woman" as soon as he entered the city.
According to the rules, the existence of knocking on the door, whether human or non-human, as long as he wants to enter Xuejiazhuang, he cannot refuse.
So get up first, let Xingye and Hei Ye find the 'knocking woman', then he locates the two of them, moves directly over, and uses Xue Jiazhuang to swallow the 'knocking woman' within his own rules.
Yuan Jia's cautious behavior was praised fiercely by Xue Yuanjing: "Big brother should do this, be careful, even if it doesn't work this time, there will be opportunities in the future."
As for Xingye and Heiye, who were thrown outside the city by Yuan Jia, they could only enter the city pitifully in the dark, and they were careful not to enter any buildings with doors.
"Tuk Tuk Tuk"
Chen Laohan sold tofu for a day today. Before going to bed, he was busy washing soybeans and soaking soybeans to prepare for tofu tomorrow morning. He was exhausted to death.
Tomorrow morning, before dawn, he was going to get up to grind the beans. He was just lying in bed when he heard someone knocking on the door.
But the old man Chen lay on the bed and didn't want to move at all. He was too tired and didn't want to get up from the comfortable bed at all. People knocking on the door outside, and no one answered for a while, should have left by themselves.
Chen old man's eyelids started to fight, he closed his eyes and fell asleep, and when he fell asleep, he vaguely heard a delicate woman's voice outside the door: "Is there anyone..."
He was so tired and sleepy that he fell directly into a deep sleep, and had no time to respond to the woman's door.
Outside the sturdy wooden door, a woman wearing a cotton-padded white cloth hunched over her waist, knocked on the door, and said softly, "Is there anyone? It's so cold outside..."
However, the woman called out several times, but no one responded.
The woman suddenly stopped knocking on the door, stopped shouting, and turned to the next house.
The way she walks is a bit strange, limping. It's still summer, but she's wrapped in a heavy padded coat.
The woman stopped at a house next to Old Man Chen. She reached out and knocked on the door, but did not speak.
But a man's voice came from the door: "Who is it?"
The woman continued to knock on the door in silence, the door was opened, and a short, shirtless man stood at the door, his eyes lit up when he saw the woman, and he smiled slyly: "Little lady, knocking on my door in the middle of the night, Do you want your brother to comfort you?"
The woman raised her head, revealing a beautiful and beautiful face, the lewdness in the man's eyes became stronger, and he stretched out his hand and pulled the woman directly into the room.
After a while, the woman came out wearing a bright red padded jacket...
＜＜＜＜＜＜
Yuan Jia and Xue Yuanjing waited patiently at the headquarters of the Night Watch. Xue Yuanjing had a strange item in his hand that could communicate thousands of miles apart.
After waiting for more than an hour, Xue Yuanjing, who was drinking tea with Yuan Jia, suddenly took out this strange item and said to Yuan Jia, "The night sent me a message, and the strange one has been found."
Yuan Jia also quickly located the location of Hei Ye and teleported it directly.
Xue Yuanjing, who was dropped, was stunned for a while. After reacting, he looked at the empty seat in front of him and gritted his teeth in anger: "Big Brother!!"
He didn't expect that the eldest brother would leave him alone. Although he knew that the eldest brother was thinking of his own safety, the grievance of being left behind still made his eyes red with anger.
hateful! He's not good at coaxing! It's not good to apologize!
Yuan Jia just moved to the location of Hei Ye, and he didn't even determine the strange location, so he immediately let Xuejiazhuang sit down, and the scope of death rules spread to the maximum.
After a series of actions last night, he looked again and saw that there was a woman wearing a blood-stained cotton-padded jacket in his Xuejiazhuang.
Yuan Jia breathed a sigh of relief, everything went very smoothly, and this weird 'knocking woman' was successfully caught by him.
Once you enter his territory, don't even think about turning out the waves again.
In order to deal with this strange creature, Yuan Jia even demolished all the doors in Xuejiazhuang, except for the door of Xuejiazhuang, which could not be demolished, and all the inner courtyard gates and doors were demolished.
Facing a house without a door, the "knocking woman" could only stand in a daze before the rules were completed, and was suppressed by his rules and eventually swallowed up.
He ventured close to the 'knocking woman' to anchor Yuan Jia in the dark night. Looking at the scene of sudden changes around him, he knew at a glance that this was inside Xuejiazhuang. When he saw the restricted 'knocking woman', he immediately relaxed. After a sigh of relief, he shouted loudly, "Master Xue, let me out."
The last time I came in with Xingye and saw the normal scene in Xuejiazhuang transformed by Yuan Jia, he was too frightened to leave Xue Yuanjing's side, but now he saw this gloomy Xuejiazhuang next to a strange man who had just killed someone. I was even more panicked and couldn't wait for a moment.
Yuan Jia was busy annexing the weird 'Knock Woman'. He didn't care about other people, so he directly asked Xue Jiazhuang to 'spit' Hei Ye out.
Yuan Jia took Xuejiazhuang and moved back to the headquarters of the Night Watch Division, and explained to Xue Yuanjing: "It has been successful, I will retreat first, and call me if something happens."
After Xue Jiazhuang 'vomited' out the dark night thousands of miles away, he saw Xing Ye waiting for him outside.
Before he could share his thoughts about the rest of his life with Xingye, he saw Xuejiazhuang disappear in front of him.
Hei Ye was stunned for a while, and after a while, he came back to his senses and asked dumbly, "Master Xue is gone?"
Xingye gave an expressionless "um".
Heiye almost couldn't help crying with a "wow", "We were left behind again!"
This place is thousands of miles away from the headquarters of the Night Watch Division. When he came, he was directly moved by Yuan Jia, and it took two sentences to arrive. At most, it was a few steps from outside the city to the inside of the city.
Now that Yuan Jia left them behind, they could only ride back bitterly.
