Plague Doctor
Chapter 177 Creephouse [Subscription Request, Month Request Ticket]
Heavy rains wash away the deserted islands and the wind reeks of dirt.
But when Gu Junmai crossed the gate and walked into the ancient mansion, he instantly smelled another odor. As he smelled in that cave, it was like mixing 10,000 different rotten objects together, which was the odor of the corpse where the ghost lived.
The light in the house was very dark, and the ground, walls and windows were covered with thick dust.
He was carrying kerosene lights, measuring the area around the front hall, which was like a home for rich people, with some exquisite and weird artwork. He doesn't know what style this is, but he feels a little familiar, as if he has seen it somewhere...
He asked Wu Shiyu's opinion, but she also shook her head: “There is no obvious style type, maybe I don't know it. ”
It's not like an ornament of their world, it's not like an animal, it's not like something specific, it's so abstract in shape that it's hard for them to describe.
The two walked around carefully on the ground floor of the house, with a front room and staircase, a meeting room on both sides and a kitchen and bathroom behind. They've all searched carefully, nothing unusual, just like a broken house that hasn't been moved or stolen, but has been abandoned for a long time.
Finally, they went back to the front hall, and Gu Jun looked at the wooden staircase leading to the second floor and walked over.
Dah, dah... Gu Jun put down his footsteps slightly, but stepped on a stale ladder, the overburdened staircase still made a slight chirp.
However, the stairs did not collapse, and they went up to the front hall on the second floor, facing one of the floor-to-ceiling windows, and the storm outside dusted the windows.
“The door of that room was open...” Wu Shiyu whispered, Gu Jun also saw. The room at the end of the corridor on the left hand side was open, but the door was still hidden behind it, only a darkness emerged from the gap.
They approached the past vigilantly and slowly. Gu Jun had a light in his left hand, and a long knife in his right hand was ready to be chopped off at any time...
When it was a few steps from the door, Wu Shiyu pulled a bow and placed an arrow at the door. Dah! The arrow pushed the door open and the kerosene lamp lit up.
In the meantime, both of you can see the view in that room. Gu Jun's heart pulled up, only he saw a human body placed there, there were elderly people, there were young adults, there were young girls, there were children... some of them stood there, some sat there.
Unlike the Earth's wise men, the five officials are much longer, and if they were alive, they would be very beautiful.
But at this point, they were all just weird, obviously doing some kind of preservative skin, stitched up and smiling mouth.
The smell of the corpse came out of this room.
“Hmm...” Wu Shiyu frowned, confused sensations shocked her mind.
But Gu Jun remembered something even more. A chill surged and his heart was wrapped in an unknown mist.
This seems to be Mr. Gard's home, as stated in the caretaker's diary.
This room is Mr. Gard's body collection room.
The wind and rain are getting louder out there. He's all messed up, but how could it be? Mr. Calder's house is in the town of Wortham in the anonymous world, a rural place, and this is the dream world… the anonymous world is not the dream world, he knows it is not.
Projection? Kanghai Mulberry? What was this island like before?
Mr. Gard and Uncle Old Dog are both ghosts, all in the dream world...
Suddenly, Gu Junhuodi looked back into the front room, still dim, nothing. But the caretaker said in the diary that for half a month the caretaker would see a black figure walking in front of the window on the second floor every night, and later found out that the black figure was not Mr. Gard.
“Did you feel that?” He asked Wu Shiyu if he was just skeptical.
“I... feel so confused...” She looks a little painfully white, “It's so confusing here, it seems like a lot of things are locked up...”
“Salt rain, stop, stop now!” Gu Jun immediately interrupted her senses. She had to shoot her head for a moment. Wu Shiyuchang shouted: “Whatever. ”
“Careful, this house is freaking out.” He said something and walked back one step to the front hall.
Dah, dah, dah, dah, dah, dah, dah, dah, dah.
He came all the way to the front of that landing window and still didn't find anything unusual. He glanced out the window and saw the ambiguity brought about by the rain... He suddenly had another chill rising and the outside view was different.
Instead of dead woods and rotten dirt, it's lush woods and smooth roads, and there's a little wooden shed in the distance.
In that wooden shed, there was a set of tables and chairs, and there was a young man standing next to him, with a kerosene lamp, looking at the window over here.
The young man, who also looked like an alien, looked 25 or 6 years old and looked a little nervous.
It seems to be the caretaker.
At this point, the caretaker retracted his gaze and sat down on the chair in the wooden shed, looking at the rain elsewhere.
“…” Gu Jun's heart punched. Is this an illusion, an illusion created by the house? “Rain, come and see. ”
Wu Shiyu was always following. This look was also a shock, the scene changed, “Is that the old dog uncle? Aren't you old enough? ”
“He's not.” Gu Jun thought, "She can see it too," it could be an illusion... let's go back to the ground floor. ”It's hard to tell when the illusion started, and he wants to see if the caretaker can see them and what they can say when they see them.
At the moment, the two men walked down the stairs back to the front lobby on the first floor and the view outside the door remained unchanged, with the wooden shed 20 metres away.
“Let's go out and talk to him.” Gu Jun grabbed the long knife in his hand and was about to walk out the door. The cold rain came.
Meanwhile, the young caretaker in the wooden shed has looked this way and stood up hastily, shouting, “Mr. Gard, you can't leave the house. You've been isolated. Please stay in the house for a while. Dr. Carlop will be here in a few days. ”
Gu Jun was colder and set his feet. Wu Shiyu wondered, "What is he talking about? Do you understand? ”
“Understood.” Gu Jun's voice was silent and the caretaker spoke an alien language. This matter cannot be separated from the participation of the newborn association.
“Mr. Gard?” Young caretakers are wary, “what are you talking about? Who are you talking to? ”
The two people next to each other looked at each other and instantly understood that the person seemed to be the only one who could see him...
“I'm not Shoples-Calder.” Gu Jun said, "If you lift your feet, you have to step out the door." Uncle Dog, what trick are you playing? Come out! ”
The caretaker got even more nervous when he saw a long knife in his hand. The caretaker copied a piece of equipment from the table and shouted, “Mr. Gard, please follow the rules of quarantine! It's for your own good, Nathaniel. Dr. Carlop will be here in a few days! ”
