Chapter 153: Haunted Dollhouse, Spiritual Eye Proficiency, Another New Year

California.

Calabasas.

A black-haired girl who looked very cold was holding a phone, thinking about how to tell this person who didn't know if he could be counted as a friend.

She glanced at a dollhouse in the center of the room, and finally sighed, saying something that made Louis's face change successfully. "Louis, I might have encountered another special existence like Emilia."

Both of them understood what this sentence meant.

"What kind of person? Tell me specifically."

"Not a person, to be precise, it's a thing. It's hard to say in detail on the phone. In short, I think this thing is very useful and I want to use it to complete a plan. I don't know if you are willing to come and assist me."

Hailey said so.

Just after saying it, she regretted it a little in her heart. Perhaps she shouldn't have been impulsive and let Louis get involved. This is one of the few friends she has left besides Tang Na, probably.

Forget it. This dollhouse might not have been meant to be used in the first place. Let's use the original plan.

Because of discovering the specialness and horror of the dollhouse, the heart that had gone wrong began to stabilize again.

Hailey was about to go back on her word, but Louis's voice, which was quite interested, came from the opposite side. "Oh? Are you sure?"

"If it's true, then I'd like to see it. But it's not possible now. It will take a few months. Do you think the time is okay?"

Louis's voice was unhurried, even full of interest, not at all like he had a shadow. Perhaps, since they parted, Louis's development was different from what she thought?

Hailey thought of Louis leading them when she was a child again.

Also, how could such a person be willing to be mediocre.

Hailey smiled. "The time is fine. It just so happens that I need to confirm whether that person is the target."

"Is it okay to come in March next year?"

"Okay, no problem. We'll contact each other then."

"..."

Hanging up the phone, Hailey's depressed mood because of her friend's murder improved a bit.

Sure enough, she still has friends.

After adjusting her mood, she turned her attention to the dollhouse, this strange thing that made her lose her composure.

This is a dollhouse that can fill a table. It belongs to a two-story house building, basically made of wood, shaped like Lego-like house-playing props.

It looks very exquisite, and the details are about the same as a normal house. The only problem is inside the house...

Several small wooden puppets the size of half a palm were actually dead, with fresh blood still flowing on the wooden floor, and above the puppets, a ferocious head was staring at Watching Jiali—motionless, yet inexplicably giving off a sense of being watched.

"According to the little girl who sold this house, the dolls inside can move, and the ghost head inside is a supernatural event, and can even appear in reality, becoming a head of normal size that conforms to reality."

"It was only because she stuffed it back into the dollhouse that it was resealed."

She got this thing from a little girl because there was an activity of selling her old things to earn pocket money, so she accidentally got it from the little girl.

"Appear in reality..."

Hailey's eyes were deep.

Is it torture that makes people painful, or is the horror of haunting more frightening?

After putting away the dollhouse, she began to continue investigating the cause of her friend Tang Na's death.

Hanging up the phone, Louis touched his chin.

Hailey is not a person who talks nonsense. If she says there is mysterious power, then there is a high probability that there is.

In that case, there will be a spring break in March next year, so let's go out then. The probability of encountering monsters is also greater. By the way, bring David with you then. With him, he will definitely not return empty-handed!

Before that, he needs to engrave the restrictions of the magic treasure to enhance his strength. Otherwise, if he catches a monster, but doesn't have the ability to clean up others, then what is the difference from being "air-forced"?

At this time, Lunca, who was sitting quietly next to him, asked, "What's wrong?"

"Nothing, just a friend from before asked me for a favor. I will probably go out in March next year."

"Travel? Take me!"

Emma didn't know where she popped out from, smiling and active.

Louis glanced at Emma. "Forget about your small body. Going out this time is for a purpose, not for fun."

"Then take me too. I know what Louis you are going to do. I should be able to help now, right?" Emma's eyes were shining.

Of course she knew that Louis going out was not for fun, or rather, if going out was for fun, she wouldn't be so active.

Louis going out must be for those ghosts and monsters, and she also wanted to try it herself!

Louis smiled when he heard this.

"Help?"

"Is your internal Qi perfect?"

"Have you learned the Hidden Art?"

"Is the Cotton-pulling Art proficient?"

"Or is the Jade Maiden Art mastered?"

One question after another made Emma retreat constantly.

The last sentence directly sank Emma's ship, and she sat on the stool with a *thud*.

"Just this and you want to help me? Better wash up and sleep."

Ignoring Emma who was lost in thought, Louis looked at Lunca. "Practice hard during this time. Learn to coordinate the affairs of the student council. Don't hold everything in your own hands."

Lunca was startled and nodded. This was Louis's kindness. She understood Louis's meaning, and Louis was right. She and Emma were the first to start practicing Qi Gong and Jade Maiden Art. As a result, even Madison had caught up with her.

If this continues, she is afraid that she will fall behind in the group of five.

At that time, even if she helps Louis a lot outside, her internal status will not be very stable.

"Okay, I will continue to guide everyone next."

Listen carefully, teach carefully.

The sun was slightly slanted, shining into the student council room, covering Louis and others with a golden coat.

Everything looked harmonious.

Crystal Lake.

As a place of Yin Sha where dozens of people have died and the Feng Shui pattern gathers Yin, it welcomed its new owner.

The Kano family bought this land in the name of developing a tourist resort and sent people to seal it with iron fences.

Although the sheriff of Crystal Town saw that there was a problem, in front of the green Franklins, everything was not a problem.

On the sparkling lake, steel plates cast an exquisite lake house. In the center of the house, there was a secret room. Louis sat cross-legged, his eyes half-closed.

Blood-colored wet mud was applied to his eyelids, and wisps of Yin Sha Qi entered the eye sockets and eyeballs through this layer of eyelids, gradually transforming his eyes.

I have to say, Crystal Lake is a treasure land.

The original Feng Shui pattern only gathered Yin. It was often very cool here, which attracted many schools to organize students to go on spring outings. If it was just like this, it would be fine.

But because Jason died during the spring outing, Jason's mother had a Book of the Dead, and the Book of the Dead resurrected Jason. After the resurrection, Jason started a killing spree and killed dozens of people.

After a set, this place changed.

Crystal Lake had sealed Jason, and dozens of people died here. Plus it is a place where Yin gathers. Combined, it created this top-level Yin Sha land.

This is much stronger than the bit of Yin Sha Qi in the farm basement, not only in quantity, but also in quality.

If Sha Qi is not enough, kill a few murderers and fierce bandits randomly from the steel house, and it will be abundant again. Under these circumstances, Louis's Spiritual Eye Technique cultivation progress is very fast.

It is even close to proficiency.

At this time, Louis's breathing stagnated, the blood-colored wet mud on his eyelids began to dry and fall off, and his hands quickly picked up a cup of boiled rootless water to wash his eyelids.

The so-called rootless water, in the folk saying, is the dew on the leaves before dawn. At this time, the dew does not connect to the sky or the ground, and it is just naturally condensed in the air according to the temperature.

Naturally, it is rootless water.

After washing his eyelids with rootless water, Louis's eyes slowly opened, and a complex rune that he couldn't understand vaguely flashed in his black pupils, fleeting.

"Spiritual Eye Technique, proficiency."

Louis dusted off the non-existent dust on his body, stood up, and looked at the wall. It's a pity that the ability of Spiritual Eye Technique proficiency is not perspective.

He was just looking at the subtle parts of the wall, like a camera, his pupils slightly shrunk and enlarged, capturing every scratch and mosquito on the wall.

"The eyesight has been strengthened. Now I should have no problem being a divine archer."

"However, this is just the most basic ability of pupil technique. The real ability is..."

Louis walked out of the secret room and looked at the black-clothed strong man guarding the door.

"Pierce, do you think it's good for the family to send you here?"

The strong man replied quickly, "I think it's very good."

Louis was expressionless and didn't speak.

In his eyes, the blurred soul in the strong man's body fluctuated slightly when he said this.

He is lying.

Also, this time, it is very cold, plus the cold is doubled in this place of Crystal Lake. Who wants to come?

"Go back to the room first."

"Young Master, you don't continue?"

Louis glanced at him faintly, and the strong man lowered his head and took another person back to the room.

This is the real ability, vaguely seeing other people's souls and soul fluctuations. To a certain extent, it can only be used as a lie detector.

But this is for normal people. If it is those possessed players, this ability can completely prevent those evil spirits.

"Unfortunately, I still haven't reached the height of killing with eyes."

Shaking his head, he no longer expects these things.

Looking at the frozen lake outside, Louis stepped on it and began to skate on the lake.

The biting cold wind scraped on him, but he only felt slightly cool.

After the tempering of internal Qi and magic power, his body had long been immune to cold and heat.

Time passed quickly.

Christmas of the new year came again.

Fine snow was falling in the sky, the room was warm, and the green Christmas tree was hung with stars and colored lights. There were also many colored balloons in the room, adding a festive color.

David wore thick gloves and brought freshly baked egg tarts out of the kitchen. "Egg tarts are here, let everyone make way."

"New flavor Italian grape egg tarts, how about it?"

"Don't worry, there is more, Jenny?"

Jenny also walked out of the kitchen, holding a roast chicken in her hand, not a turkey, but a white-feathered chicken, looking deep red and tender, oily and shiny, emitting a rich fragrance.

Especially the surface of the roast chicken was sprinkled with a layer of cumin and chili powder, which looked more appetizing.

On the table, cake, steak, pork chop, caviar, foie gras, spaghetti, roast lamb chop, braised pork, Sichuan hot pot~

East and West combined, it can be said to be rich.

And in front of the long dining table covered with white cloth, sat Louis, Lunca, Emma, and... Carrie and Margaret.

Carrie and Margaret were also invited by David to come over from next door to spend Christmas together because they were lonely.

I have to say, David is really a good person.

Everyone sat on the chairs. David looked at the full family, and the pride in his heart was about to gush out. This is the home he worked hard to build!

Happy, beautiful, harmonious.

"Okay, on this Christmas day, everyone must eat well, sleep well at night, and hope that Santa Claus will give you gifts."

"Dad, we are high school students. Santa Claus will not give gifts to high school students." Lunca said.

"Nonono, who said that? Believe me, in the eyes of Santa Claus, those under eighteen are just children." David said with a smile.

By the way, he pulled off a roast chicken leg and put it on Lunca's plate.

"Oh, okay, you are right, Dad." Lunca didn't intend to argue and began to focus on the food in front of her.

It was Margaret next to her who kept wanting to say something, but was suppressed by an invisible force. Carrie rarely showed a trace of a smile, picked up the cup with drinks and looked at Louis.

Louis nodded with a smile and drank it all.

Although everyone except Margaret didn't believe in religion, Christmas is a festival, mainly for eating, drinking, and connecting feelings.

This is the role of Christmas in David's family, and there is nothing more.

That night.

A black shadow sneaked into Louis and others' room, put down the gift box and left.

Five days later.

The New Year arrived.

David's expression was a bit sad.

"Uncle David, what's wrong? Is there anything?"

"Louis, you say that I am traveling now, leaving Orlando, should it be okay?"

"Hmm?"

Louis's eyelids jumped, and he looked at David in surprise.

David doesn't have self-knowledge about his travel luck? What's going on now?

I haven't told him about the spring break in March yet?

"The company received a big business in California, but I'm not at ease. I always feel that this business is strange somewhere."

"So I want to go there in person to see what the situation of the consignee is."

"But... you know, Louis, the last trip, I haven't forgotten it until now."

"So, I'm hesitating..."

"Don't hesitate, Uncle David!"

"Sigh, I know, forget it, this time..."

"Let's go to California together in March."

"Ah??"
