Chen Ang ’s choice obviously surprised Lawyer Luke. He carefully observed the Chen Ang for a while before speaking: “Of course, Mr. Constantine. This master key can open all the doors of this house ... … "
As if Chen Ang did n’t respond, it still smiled and said: "It's my request is abrupt!"
"But who would be plotting this house?" Lawyer Luke smiled. "This house may have been very valuable before, but it is very old. It has lived here for more than four generations. And we do n’t have the money to guarantee this big house, so it ’s already run-down, and it ’s a country town again—it ’s really worthless! ”
Nick interrupted: "But there must be a lot of antiques in such an old house! That is a valuable thing! So this key cannot be given to him ..."
Attorney Luke smiled: "Both are trustworthy people, and the 200,000 inheritance can help us a lot-we plan to get here and leave here, we are old! Needing better medical and pension conditions, with that money, we plan to move to New Orleans. "
"Besides, all the antiques were collected by us and placed in a house in the attic. There is the only door in this house that cannot be opened with a master key."
Chen Ang accepted the key without any care, and thanked: "Thank you for your generosity, and your conversation with you is really enjoyable. You are a learned person. For the history and times of this town, You are like witnessing it with your own eyes. I am really interested in history. This house has a long history. It is like a gallery of time. Some old-style styles and characteristics are well preserved here ... Shall we visit it? "
Lawyer Luke welcomes: "After dinner, you can browse at will. It is too old! It is useless except history!"
Several people leaned in front of the fireplace for a while and spent dinner in the restaurant. The dinner was chickpeas with mashed potatoes. It was a classic country style. After dinner, lawyer Luke apologized: "I am used to After sleeping for a while, you know-the habits of countrymen, the nightlife here is boring, and we usually go to bed early! "
Chen Ang and Nick glanced at each other and nodded to express their understanding-the separation between American cities and country towns is very serious. The international metropolises are full of nights and nights, with a developed nightlife, but the country towns are simple and boring Yes, the traditional Puritans ’lifestyle still dominates here, although now the rural towns are beginning to be dominated by entertainment-young people ’s various party and entertainment life is no worse than in the city.
But the couple is very traditional-they are traditional like the most conservative American Puritans.
Some hunched hostess put Chen Ang They brought them to the room where they rested. The room was on the second floor. When they opened the door, a mild musty smell came out. The house was quite big. Although it had a mildew smell, it was still clean. Chen Ang I touched the desktop, it was not gray at all.
This is quite strange. This is a big house with thirty houses.
And Chen Ang came suddenly-he came one afternoon earlier than Nick without any prior notice.
Everyone who lives in a big house knows that if you want to maintain the house for a long time, it is not realistic at all. Kitchens that do not have the habit of firing will be dusty. As long as there is little use, the corners of the bedroom where you sleep will be dusty This is still a room for young people, not to mention two widowed middle-aged couples.
How can they have the energy to clean up more than thirty rooms? ——It should be covered with white cloth everywhere, and it is right to seal up most unused rooms.
Chen Ang put down his luggage and went to Nick. Nick lived next door to him. As soon as he stepped in, he found that it was also very clean-it had a musty smell, but there was no dust, even in the corner.
Nick did n’t talk about the fact that Chen Ang suddenly called him here, but like chatting, he naturally took out some information about the owner of the house from Chen Ang. Their words were clever and they exchanged a lot of information. It was very natural, and at the same time, he didn't disclose any information about his identity.
Enough for the eavesdropper to understand nothing.
"There are many portraits and sculptures of religious symbols, including the Virgin and Child, and some biblical characters." Nick joked: "You should be very interested!"
"I'm more curious ..." Chen Ang pointed to something hanging on the top of the large bed in the Nick room, directly opposite the ceiling. It was a doll about the size of a slap with eyes sewed with buttons. The other organs of the doll's face, nose and mouth, are painted with graffiti-like brushes.
"How do you feel when you lie in bed and open your eyes to look at this thing?"
Nick was not only afraid, but when he said Chen Ang, he was still curious. When he lay back, a black bald head fell to the head of the bed, his eyes were facing the position of the doll: "It's cute ... If I have a daughter. I will play with her doll, you know I will be the kind of father who can put down his body and have a good affinity. "
"You have to have a daughter first!" Chen Ang cracked down.
"And, before you have a daughter, you must first have a wife, but you do n’t have ..."
Nick lay in bed and said, "I just went to the toilet, can you imagine? Such a big house has no mirror! I was curious for a while and asked the woman who brought me over, she said: The mirror is the door that will let you see bad things. If you want to live alone in this place, it is best not to see the mirror. So ... "
"So she sneaked over your luggage?" Chen Ang said calmly.
"She has light hands and feet, but I can still find ... It's not easy for us like this to hide from me." Nick said: "It sounds like she also turned over your luggage. But the secret of our kind Would n’t it be easy to find that way ... Is she looking for a mirror? "
"It's possible for superstitious old people to do anything!" Chen Ang doesn't seem strange.
"And did you smell it?" Nick urged his nose, scrambled around and sniffed. He turned to Chen Ang and said, "There is a faint smell here ... There are many kinds of smell, just this one is special Familiar. "The relaxed look on Nick's face gradually changed. His eyes were sharp at this moment, but this feeling soon disappeared.
He has become a black guy who likes to play funny again.
Chen Ang walked around the house. He lifted the ground stall with his feet. Two straight lines were drawn with white and red powder under the stall at the door, blocking the door.
"Does this have any special significance?" Nick asked.
"Salt can block evil damage, and red brick powder has the effect of blocking enemies from approaching in Haiti sorcery." Chen Ang twisted the white powder and easily determined that it was salt--and it was not. After filtering the coarse salt, the red brick powder is a little difficult to judge. Fortunately, he is familiar with the mysterious culture of various countries and regions.
"We usually use cinnabar!" Chen Ang put down the carpet.
"Is cinnabar more useful, or salt and red brick more useful." Nick asked curiously: "I have never seen you handle a case yet! Ask me to say that when I saw your resume, I still I was taken aback. "
"In the hands of experts, it is useful. We follow the rules ..."
"Oh! Tell me the truth!" Nick said: "We are partners now, aren't we? Tell me some secrets from your industry!"
Chen Ang reluctantly said: "Okay! I say something ... In folk witchcraft, there is a principle that is important-there is faith, there is no belief, there is no! Some magic depends on energy to function, just like Kamata Ji, the mages collected energy and used it as a weapon, so I said they acted according to the rules. But there are some magics, and they rely on beliefs for their effects. "
"Mage's will makes it work!"
"So at that time, the will of the subject is also important. Once you do n’t believe in witchcraft, its power will be greatly reduced, because the world is material, witchcraft is conscious, and consciousness can act on Conscious, but difficult to act on matter. "
"So, strengthen your beliefs."
