The strange phenomenon in the castle ruins immediately attracted the attention of the "ghost hunters" in the surrounding campsite. When the howling of the wind came from the pile of rugged boulders, the entire campsite became lively. A group of strange professionals picked up oddly-shaped mineral radios, some carried old-fashioned cameras that should have been retired 50 years ago, some carried two curved copper rods, and some were dressed like the mass-produced Black Star Troopers. In short, they dashed towards the castle ruins that kept making strange noises. Their actual combat power aside, if there really was a group of centuries-old undead trapped under the castle, they would definitely be scared out of their wits when they saw such a group of weirdly dressed lunatics charging towards them …
Of course, Hao Ren also wanted to rush out as soon as possible. When he saw the 'exorcists' rushing towards the castle, his first thought was, "Holy sh * t, this is going to be a disaster." He was so nervous that he could not control himself. He was afraid that his new tenant would be killed by a bunch of stupid ghost hunters before he could even meet him, or that the stupid ghost hunters would be killed by his new tenant. If that happened, the situation would be as bad as it could get. Raven 12345 could hang him on the tower to dry for two weeks. But just as he was about to rush out, Vivian grabbed his neck and said, "Don't rush. Look at Nangong and the Indian monk."
Hao Ren took a closer look and realized that the two people who were supposed to be the most interested in the castle (at least Nangong was very interested in the castle) were standing still. Nangong looked on coldly as the group of paranormal enthusiasts ran towards the high ground. He even shrugged and made a face at the skinny old Indian monk. He opened his mouth and said something, as if mocking the group of amateurs. The Indian monk, on the other hand, was expressionless. It was hard to tell if he was an expert or someone who was not easy to get along with. He only glanced at Nangong and replied casually before continuing to work on his pile of spices.
Hao Ren was a little confused when he saw the two people unmoved by the strange phenomenon in the castle. "What's wrong with them?"
"The spirits under the castle are very quiet," Vivian said with a frown. "I don't know what's causing this situation, but I'm sure it's not a real ghost. The two of them must have some way to distinguish the real spirits. Let's not talk about the skinny old man first. Nangong has real skills, at least he has real equipment. The craftsmanship of his monocle is a little familiar. It doesn't seem to be an ordinary thing."
At this time, the strange light in the castle ruins had gradually dissipated, but the unknown source of the wind was still echoing around the high ground. From the sound of the wind, they could vaguely hear the sound of horns and horses' hooves. Everything was just as Angus had described. The group of people who approached the castle ruins had stopped by the pile of boulders. They used all kinds of strange equipment to sweep the castle ruins. Those who did not bring any equipment simply sat on the ground and meditated. They rolled their eyes and mumbled something. For the time being, no one dared to enter the pile of boulders. It seemed that even though they were paranormal enthusiasts, these people still cherished their lives. Especially when they firmly believed that there was a ghost here, they were even more reluctant to rush in recklessly.
Nangong and the old Indian monk had been warming up for more than ten minutes behind the crowd. Finally, they slowly walked towards the ruins. Vivian patted Hao Ren's shoulder and said, "Come, let's go."
"Did the evil spirit under the castle really come out this time?"
"Not yet, but it's really stirring." The red light in Vivian's eyes gradually faded. She knocked Lily's head again and said, "Stupid dog, put your ears and tail away! Do you want to be discovered? "
Lily then remembered that she was still in her werewolf form. She quickly put away her alien accessories and asked, "What if we bump into Nangong?"
"Try not to bump into him. We'll go around him." Hao Ren pointed at a gap in the wall on the other side of the high ground. "Stay away from the crowd and try to find the target without anyone noticing. If we really bump into someone, don't panic. We'll just say that we're here to find ghosts like them. We'll say the same thing if we bump into Nangong. We're not familiar with him anyway, so there's no need to explain too much. "
Although Hao Ren said so, he knew that if Nangong or the old Indian monk found out about them, it would definitely be troublesome. Both of them seemed to have the ability to detect spirits. At that moment, Hao Ren was convinced that his new tenant was one of the ghosts here. If he met Nangong or the old Indian monk after he picked up the "person", he would not be able to get away easily. So, the best thing to do was to avoid everyone.
Fortunately, all the "ghost hunters", including Nangong and the Indian monk, were gathered on one side of the high ground. Hao Ren and the other two successfully approached the ruins from the other side of the wall. The ruins were big enough that even if the ghost hunters dared to come in, Hao Ren was confident that he would not bump into them in a short time. As long as he was careful enough and the two female monsters did not screw up, he would be fine.
"Heh, this place really collapsed badly." Hao Ren stumbled through the gap in the wall on the side of the ancient castle. He was greeted by an open space filled with gravel. This must have been the long hall of the castle. Now, the roof and the upper floor of the long hall had completely collapsed. The original wooden structure had rotted away, and the former hall had become an open square. Only the remnants of the surrounding stone walls could roughly tell what this place used to be.
Vivian looked around with a slight sadness. "Time can destroy everything. Back then, my biggest wish was to live in a castle like this. At that time, people always said that vampires lived in castles. I couldn't even afford a brick in the castle."
Hao Ren patted Vivian on the shoulder to comfort her. "Don't think about the sad past. You can't afford it now."
"... Do you f * cking know how to comfort people?"
Standing in the ruins of the castle, they could clearly hear the howling wind echoing everywhere. However, as there were boulders everywhere and many walls that had not completely collapsed, it was difficult to determine where the wind was coming from. Lily listened for a long time before she could roughly determine the direction. "It seems to be coming from there. But I can't hear it with my human ears."
Hao Ren looked in the direction where Lily was pointing and found that it was one of the few parts of the castle that had not collapsed. It was located in a corner of the rectangular ruins. It looked like an independent stone hut. Perhaps because it was independent from the main body of the castle, it was not affected by the collapse of the castle.
"It should be a chapel," Vivian analyzed professionally. "I've seen this kind of castle layout before. That stone hut is a chapel. Ghost sounds coming from the chapel? This haunting scene is quite dramatic. "
Hao Ren heard that there was a hidden meaning in Vivian's words. He asked curiously, "What did you find?"
"That's not urgent. Have you sensed the person we're looking for?"
"Not yet." Hao Ren was also puzzled by the question. He took out the MDT again and asked, "Hey, where's the sensing?"
"How would I know?" The MDT had a bad temper. "That's your problem! Chief 12345 said that as long as the new tenant is within a certain distance from you, you'll be able to sense it. If you still can't sense it, then you're not standing in the right place. Look around here yourself. Anyway, according to the information... well, the coordinates should be around here. "
Hao Ren wanted to throw the useless MDT on the ground and smash it with a few stones. However, he was afraid that there would be no place to repair it if it broke. So, he could only glare at it viciously. After that, he carefully put the high-tech treasure into his pocket.
At the same time, the group of paranormal enthusiasts gathered on the other side of the castle began to show their prowess. A bearded man holding a mineral radio was carrying a bunch of antennas and batteries on his back. He wore headphones in his ears and adjusted the modified "spirit pickup" bit by bit. Suddenly, he shouted excitedly, "I feel it! I feel it! The soul has entered my brain through the antenna. I feel it swimming in my nerves! "
An old gentleman carrying an old-fashioned black and white camera, who was unusually well-dressed, immediately gave him a disgruntled look. "Please be quiet. I'm capturing the image of the evil spirit. Also, a reminder, your headphones are leaking. I saw sparks just now."
"Souls! I see a lot of souls floating over the castle! " A middle-aged woman in a purple robe was sitting on a rock, muttering to herself while rolling her eyes. Next to her was an old witch who was even more professional. Not only was she muttering to herself, but she was also foaming at the mouth.
Nangong, wearing a custom-made monocle, stood in the middle of the crowd. He just shook his head in amusement. Then, he and the Indian monk next to him turned their eyes downward at the same time.
Their eyes seemed to penetrate the thick ground and directly reach the ground.
