Chapter 1448 1448. Five (25)
Li Du squatted at the door to watch. A few bear children forgot the pain after their scars healed. After entering the house, they forgot what happened at the door for a while, and ran over to watch.
As a result, when they ran to the black stone bricks, they would scream and back away in a panic.
Because of the cottage-style villas, the floor of the house is a layer of stone, which is related to the living environment of the colonists at that time. When the European colonists first entered the Americas, they were in places such as Philadelphia and New York to the east of the Appalachian Mountains. Rich rock resources.
As we all know, the high-end European houses in the Middle Ages were castles, and the integration was made of rocks. After arriving in North America, the high-level colonists still wanted to build castles.
But they lack sufficient financial resources, manpower and material resources are not enough, and secondly, because of the threat of Indians, they live in castles instead of building villages and towns. Building castles is too slow, the cycle is too long, and they are easily destroyed by Indians.
Eventually, cottages came along, and that's why these new types of villas, despite being quite luxurious, got their names. One of the reasons is that they were born in villages and towns in the first place.
Of course, just like now, the cottages at that time were also built against the mountains, because the villages and towns were built against the mountains for the purpose of protection.
The cottage was not entirely made of stone, but the floor and walls were made of stone. The floor in the hall of the house was a layer of stone. Perhaps in order to facilitate the distinction of areas, a black stone was used near the door.
Luguan looked at the stone and asked, "Is this thing radioactive? Will it cause death?"
"People have hallucinations, thinking that they died after seeing a ghost?" Firecracker asked.
Lu Guan nodded: "Yes, is there such a thing? But the ghost should have nothing to do with this stone, the rancher in Montana didn't die here."
Li Du, who was studying the black stone, was stunned when he heard this: "Didn't he die here? Then how did he die?"
Lu Guan said: "The one who was hit by a car died a terrible death. He crashed into a truck..."
Hearing this answer, Li Du was speechless: "Then why did the outside associate him with this house?"
Lu Guan explained: "The ghost of the house is haunting him. Anyway, he was driving well, and suddenly he changed lanes and hit the oncoming truck. Except for ghosts who are obsessed, who would do this, right? ?”
"It may also be a curse." Little Marklove added, "There is a legend in our hometown..."
Da Ma gave him another violent kick: "Stop talking about those stupid things in my hometown, don't you think the atmosphere here is not gloomy enough? Do you want to add more fire?"
"What exactly is this black stone?" Li Du asked.
He stretched out his hand to touch the stone, and a numb feeling spread rapidly from his fingers along his arm, which made him shiver a few times.
Luguan panicked: "Ah, I have a psychic, the boss has a psychic, where is the holy water I brought? Hurry up and give it to the boss..."
"Shut up!" Li Du retracted his arm and shivered again. He pointed to the stone and said in shock, "There is electricity on this thing, can it generate electricity?!"
Others tried one after another, and sure enough, a group of people began to tremble.
Godzilla shook his numb palm and said, "Shit, this current is too strong."
"It's no wonder that these brats dare not step on it, is it because of the current?" Big Mark Love said.
Luguan asked in a daze, "Why is this happening? Where does the current come from here? Stones themselves are insulators, they don't conduct electricity."
"Silicon dioxide is an insulator, and stones in their natural state are mainly composed of silicon dioxide so they don't conduct electricity, but what if it's an ore? Like iron ore," said Big Marklov.
It is common knowledge that iron ore conducts electricity.
Li Du remembered what the cleaning staff said. Someone said that when the door was just opened, a few brats had entered the house, and then they didn't dare to go in.
The cleaning staff thought that they had alarmed the dead souls and attracted them out, but Li Du thought that the water and electricity in the house were cut off when the door was first opened, and they turned on the water and electricity when they cleaned up.
That is to say, the electricity of this black slate does not come from itself, it should come from the circuit.
Li Du asked Little Marklov to turn on the electric switch. At this moment, he beckoned to take the bear children out again, and they could enter and exit the door freely.
Naturally, at this time, I tried it with my hands again, and there was no electricity on the black stone board.
"Made, I just said there is no ghost." Li Du couldn't help but swear.
Luguan hesitated and said: "But this is not right. If a wire touches the ground and causes current to flow out, then the switch should automatically trip. Otherwise, the circuit should be short-circuited in this case. In short, there should be no current flow."
Li Du said: "This is the problem of electric current."
Turn on the switch, and the black stone has electricity again.
There is no doubt about this. It depends on the actual situation. Li Du and his party are not electricians, and they are not good at this kind of thing. They can only lay dry wooden boards on it temporarily, and then find an electrician to see what's going on.
They had just covered the black slate when Ah Ao suddenly raised his head to look at the door, and then rushed out ferociously.
A voice came from outside: "Hello, is anyone here? Is there anyone here? Whoa, step back, a big dog!"
Li Du whistled, and Ah Ao ran back quickly. When he went out, he saw a somewhat decadent young man standing at the door.
Young people are like nerds, with disheveled hair like a bird's nest, dull eyes, pale skin, puffy body, and weak footsteps. These are the characteristics of American dead nerds.
"You are?" Li Du asked tentatively.
The young man pointed in the direction of the next door and said, "Oh, my name is Benedict Allen, and I live there. Who are you? Are you plainclothes police? Why was this haunted house opened again?"
Li Du thought of the domineering Toyota he saw during the day, so he said, "No, I am the new owner of this place and your new neighbor. Nice to meet you."
Hearing this, the young man took a deep breath: "Fake, you bought this house? Why did someone buy this house again, Ma De, damn it!"
He said a few words in annoyance, and then added: "This is a haunted house, buddy, God, are you an immigrant? You must have been deceived, this house cannot be lived in!"
Li Du smiled and said, "I know, but I don't believe there are ghosts in the world."
Benedict smiled bitterly, and muttered: "Well, I don't believe it either, but the fact is, listen to me, man, you'd better get out of here quickly, sell this house or something, in short, something happened here, Five people have died before and after..."
The last sentence made Li Du strange: "Five people? Isn't it four people?"
Benedict sneered and said, "Of course not. I live here, and I know best that there are indeed five people, but the fifth person who died is rarely known."
