Chapter 265: Midnight Haunted House 52
They both looked at Ye Jian at the same time.
Su Qingyun asked him, "Did you know very early that someone was possessed by you?"
"It wasn't that early. I was going upstairs when I suddenly felt a little heavy. Xu Xinghe was right behind me at the time. I turned around and looked at him, and he looked back at me. I knew from his eyes that he had seen what was on me. Then footprints appeared in the corridor, so I said some nonsense to provoke you. I didn't expect you to be so smart. You understood as soon as I said it."
Ye Jian patted Su Qingyun on the shoulder after he finished speaking, "As expected of a teammate who has fought side by side through four scenes together. Thank you so much for what you did just now."
Su Qingyun was a little angry. "If you feel something is wrong, you can just tell me. It was just an accident. You may not be so lucky next time."
"I want to tell you the truth, but I don't know if you and Xu Xinghe have any contamination attached to them." Ye Jian showed an innocent look, "So I have to confirm your condition first. That sound just now came from you."
"On me?" Su Qingyun frowned slightly. She just heard it coming from behind her.
Xu Xinghe was worried that Su Qingyun would quarrel with Ye Jian, so he quickly stepped forward to mediate the situation. He said that such a supernatural thing happened before 10 o'clock in the evening, which showed that this haunted house was extraordinary, so they should do the cleaning work first.
Su Qing nodded, and she turned to look at the large carved bed in the room.
At this time, Xu Xinghe had already stepped forward and lifted the gauze on the bed.
Ye Jian walked over to Su Qingyun and whispered to her, "I was just explaining to you, I didn't argue with you. Why does Mr. Xu act like a mediator?"
"He's always like this." Su Qingyun began to put on gloves.
"Like being a mediator?"
"I like to do what I should do when I should do it, and I don't like nonsense."
"You say that as if I enjoy talking nonsense."
Su Qingyun glanced at Ye Jian, and Ye Jian also looked at Su Qingyun with a serious expression.
Finally, he snorted coldly and walked towards a sandalwood box.
Su Qingyun ignored him. After all, the boss had a temper. She walked towards Xu Xinghe and prepared to check under the bed with him.
Before she had taken two steps, Ye Jian lifted her up and carried her to the sandalwood box.
"Come and see."
"What are you looking at?"
"See if there's anything good."
Su Qingyun had no choice but to go and see. The sandalwood box was indeed a good box, with a black lacquer surface and silver leather wrapped around the four corners. It also smelled faintly of sandalwood.
The fragrance that Su Qingyun smelled when she entered the room just now might have come from this sandalwood box.
Su Qingyun brushed off the black dust on the box with her hands, and then carefully looked at the carvings on it.
Su Qingyun couldn't tell what the pattern carved on it was, but the figures inside were carved very lifelike.
"This should be the content of a play." Ye Jian said standing by.
Su Qingyun glanced at Ye Jian and said with a smile, "I didn't realize that Master Ye also understands opera."
"I don't know, but my grandmother loved it. I watched it with her a few times when I was a kid. The pattern on it is a fragment from The Romance of the Western Chamber."
Su Qingyun said "oh" without asking any further questions. Ye Jian asked her to come over and take a look, probably not to let her see the pattern on the box.
He probably wanted to show her what was in the box.
Su Qingyun began to look at the box carefully. There was a copper lock hanging on the box. Su Qingyun pressed it, and the copper lock popped open with a "click". Then a rotten sandalwood fragrance slowly seeped out of the box.
Su Qingyun sniffed it and found the scent of sandalwood, mold, and a faint sweetness.
This taste?
Su Qingyun was startled and quickly looked at Ye Jian.
Ye Jian looked at her expectantly and asked, "Did you smell it?"
Yes, she smelled it, so Ye Jian pulled her over to be a police dog?
"Why did you ask me to come over and smell it?"
Ye Jian didn't say anything, but took out his mobile phone and showed her a message.
【A sandalwood box】
The sender was Yin Qi.
"Did Yin Qi help you find it?"
"Yes."
"Is he so powerful?"
"He also found the location of the fragments in the previous instance. He has a compass."
"So he's in this dungeon too?"
"yes."
"With whom?"
"Xin Yi."
Not surprising.
Su Qingyun opened the box. At this moment, a bright moon suddenly rose outside the window. Su Qingyun quickly closed the box.
She turned her head to look at the moon outside the window.
When did the moon appear in the dungeon?
Xu Xinghe and Ye Jian also felt strange and turned around.
After taking a look, Xu Xinghe quickly looked at Su Qingyun and asked her if she had triggered something, "Why is there a moon?"
"I don't know. I just opened the box."
"Anything?"
"I haven't seen it clearly yet." Su Qingyun asked Xu Xinghe, "Is there anything under the bed?"
"No, I'll be done with it in a minute."
"Okay, hurry up."
Xu Xinghe went to clean under the bed again, and Su Qingyun also opened the box.
Su Qingyun knew that Ye Jian didn't want Xu Xinghe to know about collecting the fragments, and she kept her promise to help him find them in the copy, so she wouldn't say a word in front of Xu Xinghe.
Moonlight slanted into the house through the carved window lattices, casting mottled diamond-shaped spots of light on the black sandalwood box. Most of the gold paint on the inside of the sandalwood box had peeled off, revealing hideous cracks underneath, as if it had been torn apart by sharp claws.
Su Qingyun covered her heart and took a deep breath, then reached in and took out a costume from the box.
Yes, it is a costume. This robe is somewhat similar to the one worn by the man in the pattern on the box.
Su Qingyun picked up the clothes and sniffed them carefully. Finally, she found the piece that Ye Jian wanted at the collar.
The fragment was extremely small, and if Su Qingyun hadn't been able to smell the odor it emitted, it would have been difficult to take it out of the clothes.
She handed the fragment to Ye Jian.
Ye Jian said thank you and quickly put it in the bottle.
At this time, Xu Xinghe had also finished cleaning under the bed. He walked over and asked Su Qingyun what she had found.
"A costume." Su Qingyun took out the costume, shook it open, and showed it to Xu Xinghe.
At this moment, a gust of wind suddenly blew up the costume, and then Su Qingyun felt a cold breath pouring in from outside the door.
"Thump, thump, thump" a series of footprints appeared on the floor of the room, shining blue in the bright moonlight.
Su Qingyun quickly threw her costume into the sandalwood box and drew out a peach wood sword from behind her. Xu Xinghe also quickly took out a cinnabar ink box.
Only Ye Jian took out the small medicine bottle containing cow's tears slowly. He unscrewed the cap, dripped the liquid onto his finger, and then wiped it on Su Qingyun's eyes.
