Chapter 109: The Investigator: Secrets (Part 1)
If Justifa's eyes could pass through the mirror and come to the other end, he could see Chen Ang and Nick sitting in the corridor, with a mirror hanging on the closed door.
In the room, Selsey smelled a wax oil. When she raised her hand in the dark, she saw a scarlet red on her hands.
Selsey was startled. She sat up and observed carefully before she found that her hands were covered with red rust.
It was red mold, and I don’t know when the pillows and quilts were covered with mold.
Just as Selsey observed the details of the mold stained on his hands and tried to break free from this hallucinatory world, behind her, the wax figure standing at the door had melted!
The white wax oil melts and drips, revealing the gray skin under the wax oil.
As the wax oil fell into a pool on the floor, the "shell" on the wax figure has been mostly peeled off.
What was exposed was a thin corpse, her slender body wrapped in wax oil, and white candle tears remained in her facial features.
Her face was stale gray, and some dehydrated skin could no longer support the skeleton of the corpse, making her look skinny and thin. When some wax pieces fell off, part of the skin was torn off, exposing some of the limbs of the corpse to expose muscles and bone tissue.
The wax figure wrapped in the corpse slowly turned around and looked at Selsey.
At this time, Selsey also heard the sound of the wax shell peeling off. Her body stiffened and she lowered her head to see the shadow of the wax statue on the ground. The shadow truly reflected the movement of the wax statue.
Selsey is not afraid that the corpse is just a dead object, it is the voodoo material used for her. She uses corpses to create voodoo dolls. The most core secret of the voodoo religion.
Every voodoo wizard is proficient in the production of voodoo dolls, which is an ancient African witchcraft, which is used by wizards to protect their substitutes. In the ancient legend of voodoo sect, they are guarding a soul gate, and behind the door is "death".
To avoid death, open the door to the soul and take away their souls.
The wizards used their hair and witchcraft to create substitute dolls, hoping that they could deceive "death". Even if the wizard was caught by death, they could attach their souls to the voodoo dolls to avoid being caught behind the door. For a long time, the wizards used voodoo dolls to guard the "door" to prevent the soul door from being opened.
It also avoids the things behind the gate of the soul, and the power of death comes out of the gate.
Voodoo dolls are not seals…but seals.
Because the ‘gate’ is a non-entity existence, a concept from birth to death, representing the concept from one world to another, the ancient tribes with the origin of the voodoo religion cannot guard the ‘gate’ entities like Wakanda and Ebola, so they made a voodoo doll with all the souls of the voodoo religion that were dead wizards.
Guarding that ‘door’.
Now... the initial and strongest voodoo doll was taken away... the door was also opened!
The opened door means that the road from the world of the dead to the world of the living has been opened, which means that some things can return to this world from behind the door. This door is invisible and intangible, but a concept. Anything that communicates with the concept of another world may be a ‘door’.
Like a mirror!
Or at a specific time, the Chinese Ghost Festival, hundreds of ghosts travel at night.
Or a ceremony lights a candle at a crossroads.
After the door is opened, these concepts of specific meaning given by human cultural activities have different powers. The "door" is not a physical, not a visible and tangible thing, but a cosmic law.
It represents the cosmic law of "death".
One day a few weeks ago, Selsey suddenly found the door open. At that time, she was traveling at night, and a strange sound came from the attic. Then she went up to check that it was nothing, because the attic was the place where she placed things related to witchcraft. Although it looked gloomy, it was actually very safe.
Everything changed that day. Before that, although Selsey was a wizard who seized other people's bodies, she did not look gloomy, but was happy and enjoyed the bright appearance of life.
But that day, she saw Caroline, a kind-hearted caregiver who was killed by her, and Luke, a young and promising lawyer, who was burned to death by her parents in the black body, Violet and Ben Devriox, who appeared in front of Selsey and allowed her to experience the torture they suffered.
If Justifa hadn't discovered that something was wrong and saved Selsey with witchcraft, she might have died in the attic.
From that day on, Selsey and Justifer knew that they would probably fight these things forever until they would fall into hell forever and would never be reborn.
Voodoo dolls are substitutes and gatekeepers.
They made many voodoo dolls, which filled all the rooms in the house. They tried to use witchcraft to hide themselves so that they could not find themselves. Vooodoo dolls could prevent those things from coming out of the door and also prevent them from stepping through the door. Relying on these dolls, Celsi and Justifer hid in and out of them. To get rid of these things completely, they needed to hold a witchcraft created by the voodoo queen Laview.
Blessing of Laview!
They need to kill the two people, refine them into a special voodoo doll, and then cover themselves up by the souls targeted by the evil spirits, create a fake soul shadow, cover it on the special voodoo doll, and deceive the evil spirits.
Selsey and Justifah began to look for someone to make this voodoo doll, but before they could prepare, a young man who claimed to be an insurance investigator came to the door, followed by a black man who also came here, and they had to shift their target...
Selsey came to her senses and struggled out of her involuntary memories. She noticed that all the voodoo dolls in this room came alive and the voodoo dolls protected them, but they were not necessarily safe. The things behind the door could infect the dolls, making them weird or even dangerous.
Selsey didn't know what dangers there were for this infected voodoo doll, because they had dealt with the infected dolls in the past. But she knew that voodoo dolls could become the sustenance of the soul, and... it could also become the sustenance of the evil spirits.
Cecil doesn't need to think about these dolls that hold evil spirits, and knows that they have no good intentions to them.
The corpse in the wax figure began to dance, and her toes were on tiptoe and leaped, a ballet that was as elegant as before.
She was an excellent ballet dancer during her lifetime, and later retired due to illness. In order to return to her beloved stage, the desperate dancer turned to witchcraft. The wizard fulfilled her wish, but concealed the more cruel price... In the end, the dancer was made into wax figures and frozen at the moment she danced.
Her soul was also imprisoned in wax figures forever, becoming the best wizard's voodoo doll!
The corpse danced, and the tips of her toes supported the entire weight of her body. Her stiff body was as soft as possible, just like a marionette puppet, which made her dance look like a puppet dance, holding the stiffness of a mechanical dance puppet, dancing standard ballet.
The corpses dancing in the shadows, a dance of life and death.
Thrilling horror and beauty!
"Why don't you go up and dance together?" Selsey heard her husband lying beside her talking in a low voice. Selsey suddenly realized that her face was too young, just like what Lawyer Luke looked like when he was in his twenties.
But what scared her was that attorney Luke, who was in his twenties, was not her husband.
The door rang, and the shaft made a twisting sound, and the sound of the machine spring rotating was heard.
The slightly covered door was pushed open by one hand, and Chen Ang's figure appeared at the door. He smiled and his steps were light. He walked in. There was a thick shadow behind him. You had to look carefully to see that it was a personal shadow.
Chen Ang lowered his voice and said, "Are you asleep?"
