Chapter 1223 Strange text message, unusual reminder
br /\u003eAfter being touched, Lily said, "I don't know where there is danger."
"I'm sorry."
This answer was what Lin Chen expected.
The task must not appear and be completed so easily.
This is a difficult game.
Lin Chen glanced at the woman who was still in a daze and had not come back to her senses.
"Nothing, I'll leave first."
"Call me if you need me."
After that, Lin Chen turned and left.
"Master Lin, goodbye!"
Lily watched Lin Chen walk out respectfully, and then looked at her friend.
Seeing her friend's dazed look, she decided to take her friend to the hospital.
Hopefully, her brain is not scared.
Lin Chen went downstairs.
Open the system and take a look at the progress of the main task of this game.
"Main task: Complete 3 demon hunter tasks within 7 days."
"Current progress: 1 has been completed."
There are still 2 demon hunter tasks to go.
Ding Dong.
Lin Chen's phone rang.
"A mission?"
He immediately took out his phone, only to find that he had only received a text message.
Lin Chen wanted to delete it.
But at a glance, his attention was drawn to this text message.
This text message is a bit special.
[Safety reminder: Dear citizens, if you feel lonely recently and start chatting with flowers, plants and trees, this is normal and there is no need to call for consultation.
But if flowers, plants and trees start to answer your questions, please contact us in time. Thank you for your understanding and support. 】
Lin Chen finished reading the text message.
"Chatting with flowers, plants and trees?"
"Is it possible for flowers, plants and trees to respond?"
Lin Chen immediately realized that this was definitely a hidden mission.
And it was a big hidden mission.
The city began to send text messages to remind everyone.
"Are there demons and monsters incarnated as flowers, plants and trees?"
"Or are there people who have been brainwashed and can no longer distinguish right from wrong?"
Lin Chen put away his phone and glanced at the green belt next to him.
The flowers, plants and trees here all look normal.
Ding Dong.
His phone suddenly rang again.
"Another text message?"
Lin Chen immediately took out his mobile phone and found that this time someone was calling him.
An unfamiliar caller ID.
Connected.
"Hello, is this the demon hunter, Master Lin?"
A middle-aged man's voice came from the phone.
Lin Chen said: "Yes."
"Great."
The middle-aged man said excitedly: "There are some problems with my old house."
"My cat often becomes irritable for no reason."
"Master Lin, please help us take a look."
Lin Chen said: "The starting price is 5,000, and if you are okay, give me the address."
The middle-aged man hurriedly said: "Okay."
Then he gave an address.
After receiving the address, Lin Chen hung up the phone.
"It's not in the city."
The middle-aged man's location is far away from the suburbs.
Lin Chen got on the supersonic motorcycle and went there immediately.
Although the other party's location is very remote, there is automatic navigation, so there is no worry about getting lost.
More than ten seconds later, the car left the city, and half a minute later, the motorcycle slowly stopped in front of the gate of a courtyard.
Lin Chen got off the car and stood in front of the gate of the courtyard and looked around.
The terrain of the courtyard is relatively high, and there is an earth dam more than 30 meters in front of the gate.
Then about four or five hundred meters away, there is a small village.
Smoke slowly floated in the village, which means that there are still people living inside.
A question arose in Lin Chen's mind: "Why was this courtyard built in such a remote place?"
When this question arose, Lin Chen thought of the middle-aged man's question at the beginning.
He said that the cat at home often becomes irritable.
Remote house.
Angry cat.
Before entering the courtyard, Lin Chen had already guessed what unknown secrets were hidden in this courtyard.
Dongdong.
He stepped forward and knocked on the door.
Soon.
Click.
The vermilion door was opened, and a man with gray hair, who looked about 40 years old, stood behind the door and looked at Lin Chen up and down.
"Who are you?"
Lin Chen took out his ID and said: "Demon Hunter."
The man took the ID and said happily: "You are Master Lin!"
"Come in, come in."
The man invited Lin Chen into the house, then closed the door and began to introduce himself.
"My name is Tang Kang, and I am the owner of this courtyard."
"It was also me who called Master Lin to come."
Lin Chen nodded.
From the moment he heard Tang Kang's voice, he recognized him as the caller.
Lin Chen followed Tang Kang all the way to the living room.
He called his wife to make tea for Lin Chen.
Lin Chen sat on a chair, took a sip of tea, and said: "Tell me about the problem you encountered in detail."
Tang Kang sat down, frowned and sighed.
Then he said: "Every night, my cat is very noisy, meowing and scratching, making it impossible for people to fall asleep."
"I suspect there is something unclean in the house."
Paused.
He added.
"Because this house has a history of more than 200 years."
"It is said that someone died in this house."
Lin Chen asked: "You are the owner of the house. Don't you know if there have been any deaths in the house?"
Tang Kang said with a wry smile: "When I was very young, I was taken away by my parents and moved to live in the city."
"I was diagnosed with a heart disease some time ago, so I quit my job in the city and wanted to come back here to recuperate."
"But I noticed that the villagers around me seemed to be afraid of my house."
"I asked them and found out that there had been a death in this house decades ago."
Tang Kang continued: "I spent most of my savings to renovate this house. I didn't expect these problems to occur."
"I beg Master Lin, please save us."
Lin Chen said: "Help."
"Of course."
This is a task, there is no reason not to do it.
It's just that the information that can be controlled now is not too much.
Lin Chen said: "Where is your cat?"
"In my room, I took Master Lin to see it."
Tang Kang led Lin Chen and soon saw a majestic black cat.
Lin Chen didn't see any evil or demonic energy from this cat.
This is just an ordinary cat.
At this time, the black cat was sleeping on the bed. When he noticed someone coming, he just raised his head and continued to sleep.
Lin Chen asked: "When and where does this cat usually get restless?"
Tang Kang said: "Third watch in the middle of the night, on my bed."
"My wife and I are often woken up by it."
Lin Chen walked to the bedside and checked, but didn't see anything special.
Take out your phone and check the time.
It's half past four in the afternoon.
There's still some time until evening.
Lin Chen said: "Clean up a room for me. I'll stay here tonight and take a look."
Tang Kang said excitedly: "Okay!"
Tang Kang felt much more at ease if there was a demon hunter living at home.
He immediately called his wife and went to clean the room together.
Lin Chen took advantage of this moment to leave the courtyard and walk toward the village a few hundred meters away.
Tang Kang has lived outside for too long and doesn't know many things about the courtyard.
Lin Chen decided to ask people in the village.
Maybe they know some valuable information.
