The years of reselling the haunted house

Chapter 270: Hanging Soul Ladder

While taking those clothes out of the bag, Ma Su said, "It's okay, I can make do with anything, you..."

After Ma Di took the clothes out of the bag and saw them clearly, he turned pale in shock, threw them on the ground, pointed at his third uncle and cursed: "Old man, are you sick? How can you take these clothes?" Clothes of the dead for us to wear?"

The clothes Ma Su threw away were scattered on the ground, clearly three shrouds.

The third uncle hurriedly picked up the shroud, and said in a low voice to Ma Su, "What are you shouting for? What a fuss, what happened to the shroud? Let me tell you, these three pieces of clothes were not bought from a shroud store, but on dead people. It was taken off. Wearing this, you can save your life if you go in. If you don’t wear it, don’t rely on me if you die..."

"Are you kidding? You can save your life by wearing this?" Ma Di pouted and looked at me again: "Yangzi, is this true?"

I smiled bitterly. I still have a say in the matter of wearing a shroud.

When the third uncle took me to build the first house, he let me wear this shroud, and it was to enter the deserted building.It is said that wearing shrouds can hide the yang energy on our bodies, which is to deceive the ghosts inside.

But he didn't say that it was clothes taken from a dead person. I knew it in my heart, and I was tricked by my third uncle again.If I knew at the time that it was worn by a dead person, I wouldn't wear it even if I was killed.

But at this time and at that time, after so many things, life and death have opened up a lot for me.So although he also had resistance to the shroud, his psychological endurance was better than that of Ma Su.

Seeing Ma Di asking me, I nodded at him: "Old Ma, this shroud can indeed cover our yang energy. After entering, those ghosts will not be able to find us."

When the third uncle heard this, he pointed at me and said to Ma Di: "Did you hear that, blame the old man, you don't believe me, don't you believe my nephew? Stop talking nonsense, put it on quickly, it's all for your own good, and it looks like it's hurting you." Like."

Ma Su was dubious, first saw that my third uncle and I had already put the shroud on him, then he shook off his own, and put it on by gritting his teeth.

"Smelly Taoist priest, what you do is unreliable. Does this thing work?"

Hearing Ma Di's chatter, the third uncle said angrily: "Old Matou, if you don't want to wear it, you don't wear it. Don't say my method is unreliable, okay?"

After Ma Di said it, he still put on the shroud after hearing what the third uncle said was serious.

I was amused in my heart, when I put on a piece of clothing, the two of them would quarrel.

The three of us each put on our shrouds, looking awkward at each other.The third uncle warned again: "Go in later, I will go in front, and you follow me. When I don't let you talk, don't talk. When you get to a place where you can talk, I will naturally give you a signal. I understand. ?"

Both Ma Di and I nodded to show that we understood.

I know that what Uncle San said was not alarmist. Except for the room with trees, other places in this hotel are not peaceful.If it is not done well, it will be difficult for us to walk to that room alive.

Third Uncle took out a compass from his bag, held it in his hand, and was about to enter through the door of the hotel.

I reminded the third uncle: "We were wearing shrouds last time, didn't we hold incense in our hands?"

The third uncle shook his head: "Today, there is dead air on the shroud, so there is no need to offer incense. You are behind me, just light a piece of white wax for lighting."

Ma Su said, "I've got a flashlight."

Uncle San waved his hand: "We are wearing shrouds. Have you seen flashlights lighting the mourning hall? Aren't they all candles?"

Ma Di was robbed by the third uncle, and stopped talking.

The third uncle was holding the compass, and I lit a white candle and followed behind him, with Ma Su at the end.

The three of us walked into the Yiyuan Hotel one by one.

After entering the hotel, it was the expected coldness.This kind of place is usually like this, obviously there is no wind, but you can always feel the wind blowing on your face, and the wind is like a knife, making your face hurt.

Since we didn't use a flashlight this time, only a candle in my hand was lit, so the light was even darker.That little candle is not even a single spark in this building.

Holding the compass, the third uncle first turned around in the hall on the first floor. Seemingly noticing anything unusual, he waved his hand and walked to the next stairwell.

Entering the stairwell, I suddenly remembered that I and Pang Dahai were trapped on this staircase before.Then he stepped forward and pulled the third uncle's clothes. The third uncle glanced at me and said in a low voice, "What's the matter?"

I saw my third uncle talking, and it is obvious that we can talk here.So I reminded him that the stairs used to be weird, and reminded him to pay attention.

The third uncle nodded: "I know what happened to you last time, it was when you encountered the Xuanhun Ladder."

"The Hanging Soul Ladder? What is the Hanging Soul Ladder?"

The third uncle explained: "The hanging soul ladder is a general term, not necessarily used on stairs. This phenomenon also exists on many flat lands or hillsides. There are two versions of the hanging soul ladder, one is the structure theory, and the other is the structure theory." It is the theory of ghosts and gods. This structure has always been controversial. Many people, including scientists and metaphysicians, have demonstrated this problem. It is one of the most difficult puzzles. The original meaning refers to a staircase that forms a roundabout, and you want to connect it from the beginning to the end, but you Walking on it is always uphill or downhill."

I nodded and said: "Yes, that's what Fatty and I felt at the time. But third uncle, this is theoretically impossible. A staircase can either go up or down, such as the stairs on the first floor and the second floor. How can it be connected end to end?"

The third uncle glared at me: "If this question is as you think, can it still be called a mystery? This hanging soul ladder is special here. If you are interested, you can look it up online when we go back. Check, the discussion about the hanging soul ladder has never stopped. The structure of the stairs here should be a kind of hanging soul ladder, but I think the reason for it is more likely to be spiritual."

I asked again: "Then do you think this hanging soul ladder belongs to metaphysics or science?"

Ma Di interjected and said: "Actually, I think so about this kind of thing. I feel that in a dark environment, people are led off the road by skillful use of shadows and special signs without realizing it. In addition, the slope is originally small. , as long as the length is long enough, it will cause the feeling of uphill and downhill is not very clear, so as to achieve the effect of endless circulation. That is to say, this kind of slope is actually composed of steps, but the steps should be There is a slope, but the slope is too small to be noticed, so that it is possible to turn or something without anyone noticing. Of course, this is only analyzed from a scientific point of view. The metaphysical point of view you mentioned , I don't know."
