Chapter 187
Without any further delay, Joseph began to organize and evaluate the items in the warehouse, hoping to find something good inside to make up for his heavy hemorrhage.
"A gold candlestick! Not bad. Unfortunately, there is no certification mark on the metal. The workmanship is rough and the value is much less."
After digging through the cabinets and throwing out a lot of useless items, Joseph finally found a pretty good trident-shaped golden candlestick from a box, looked at it and commented.
Since his business involves collecting used goods, his appraisal ability is still very strong.
Sarah watched curiously as Joseph searched for treasures in the garbage.
Although it was a bit regretful that I couldn't take action this time, due to the girl's temperament, her emotions came and went quickly.
At this time, she was very curious about this special way of shopping for goods.
Seeing this, Joseph also let Sarah play in the warehouse.
Although the invitation was in vain this time, the relationship between Sara and Robb was unclear, so he still had to maintain the relationship.
With the owner's consent, Sara followed along and started exploring with great interest.
As if searching for a treasure, she opened a leather box and touched around inside. After discovering that it was full of clothes, she continued searching for the next one without paying attention.
Not long after, she found a large photo album in a small box.
When I opened it, I saw at the front a photo of a little girl named Dottie Walmart with her mother, followed by various photos of her brother and the family from childhood to adulthood.
This is fairly normal.
Turning to the back, there are photos of World War II marked with swastika flags, many of which are very bloody.
Sarah was still turning the pages, pressing a chubby hand on the album.
"Sarah, this is not something people of your age can watch." Joseph said seriously.
Although Sarah is a witch, Joseph is still very responsible given the age of the other party.
He took the photo album over.
Sarah, who was aware of Joseph's good intentions, did not stop her, but asked curiously: "What's going on with these photos?"
Joseph flipped through the photo album and said, "The photos are from the original owners of the warehouse. They moved from Germany to the United States after World War II. Sure enough! A bunch of Nazi remnants."
After learning about the strange behavior of the original owner of the warehouse, Joseph also investigated the original owner's back.
"The original owner of this warehouse is the brother named Dottie Wal-Mart in the photo. He has a very bad reputation. Not only is he a prodigal, he is even involved in the disappearance of his sister. But there is no evidence to prove that he did it. He has always been nothing. thing."
Joseph gave a brief introduction.
"Dottie Wal-Mart?" Sara listened and looked into the box that originally contained the photo album. There were newspapers there.
She opened it and saw the news reports about Dottie Wal-Mart's disappearance.
"These things have been in the past for a long time." Joseph, who also noticed this scene, shook his head indifferently, and then waved, "Sarah, come here quickly! I found a good thing, and I have professional questions to ask you. "
When Sarah heard this, she put down the newspaper in her hand and followed Joseph to the corner of the warehouse.
There, a large round table with red stripes on a black background was placed on top of the box.
The top of the round table is wrapped in rows of mysterious symbols, which is a huge five-pointed star pattern.
…
Chapter 262 Chapter 262 Book of Devils
Sarah heard the call, came to the round table, and carefully looked at the patterns on the round table.
Thanks to the teachings of a good teacher at the Witch Academy, she is no longer a novice in the supernatural field.
After thinking for a while, Sara said seriously: "This should be the table used for seances."
"Séance?" Joseph, who did not have enough knowledge about the gods, asked doubtfully.
Sarah explained: "A traditional religious ceremony or ritual activity dedicated to communicating with gods, ancestors or other supernatural beings. It's just that this table..."
Having said this, Sara looked at the famous inverted pentagram pattern on the table, wrinkled her nose and said, "The spiritual séance ritual that was performed on this table was very evil."
When Joseph heard this, he was very nervous and said: "It's very evil? Will it affect us?"
Sara shook her head: "There's no ceremony going on now, the table itself is fine."
"That's good." Joseph breathed a sigh of relief, and then said with a smile, "So this table has a lot of history?"
Sarah replied honestly: "Of course."
"That's good! That's good!"
Joseph rubbed his hands excitedly, put his face to the round table, and looked at it carefully.
Although he didn't know much about mysticism, he could still recognize the material and craftsmanship of the table.
"The workmanship is very exquisite, and it looks like Austrian style. Look at the wood, it's Thuja cypress and sandalwood. Plus Sarah, you said it's specially used for séances. When combined like this, it must be worth a lot of money."
Joseph was very happy to touch left and right on the round table.
He felt that not only did he not lose money this time, but he was going to make a lot of money.
Suddenly, Joseph didn't know where his palm touched the table.

The hidden mechanism of the round table opens.
A previously undiscovered drawer protruded from the side of the table.
Joseph, whose face was full of unexpected joy, quickly looked at the drawer, and what came into view were exquisite and ancient-looking books.
"Lipo Brimus Damonia"; "Lipo Secundus Cymvolia"; "Lipo Trituis Pellilips".
Joseph took out the three books one by one while reading the convoluted title.
"There should be another one, right?"
The drawer plane has two books placed side by side, and the height is also two books.
According to this calculation, there should be four books.
Joseph searched again, but unfortunately there was no new discovery.
Sara on the side picked up the book and read it.
Soon, she frowned.
It's just because the book contains a lot of knowledge about demons, including various transactions with them, and it's unknown whether they are true or false rituals.
"What's written on it?" Joseph asked.
Sara closed the book and said, "Devil."
"demon?"
When Joseph heard this, he suddenly thought of something. He quickly sent the titles of these books to a contact group in the same industry. After asking about it, he said excitedly:
"I found out. This is the Book of Demons in the Lipa series. It is very popular among buyers in the mysterious circle. Not only does it cost a lot of money, but I don't have to worry about selling it at all. Let me see... Oh my god! The auction at the auction house The base price is 300,000 U.S. dollars! I'm making a fortune...Huh, that's not right. A total of four volumes are sold at this price. Without the most critical fourth volume, it would be worth 10,000 U.S. dollars."
Joseph looked at the three books in his hand, and his mood suddenly fluctuated.
Sarah was initially shocked by the amount of $300,000.
But soon, she came back to her senses and kindly reminded: "Joseph, it's better not to touch this kind of devil's book."
Joseph smiled and waved his hand: "Sarah, don't worry. The Lipa series of books has appeared many times in the industry, and the one we have is not an only one. I have never heard of any problems. If there is really a danger, this The world has long since been filled with demons.”
An income of at least three hundred thousand dollars would allow Joseph to take a risk once.
Besides, there is no danger here.
There are real witches protecting him.
Joseph looked excited and continued to look for the fourth book in the warehouse.
Sarah could only watch.
After more than ten minutes, Joseph looked through the entire warehouse and couldn't find the fourth volume. He was very reluctant and asked: "Why isn't there?"
Thirty times the price difference!
When Joseph thought that so much money would fly away from his hands, his heart began to bleed.
He patted the wall at the end unhappily.
boom!
An unusual sound sounded from the wall.
Joseph's eyes suddenly lit up, he knocked a few more times and put his ear against the wall.
"It's hollow inside!"
Confirmed, he quickly pushed away the various items piled on the wall.
Sure enough, a hidden iron door caught the eyes of Joseph and Sarah.
"We have found a real treasure!" Joseph laughed excitedly.
Sarah looked curious.
I always feel that this is very similar to the treasure hunt plot in storybooks and movies.
So, seeing that Joseph couldn't open the lock on the iron door, he even thought about going out to get tools.
She walked forward and pointed at the lock.
Click.
When the lock cylinder rings, it opens automatically.
Joseph exclaimed: "Amazing magic."
Sara smiled reservedly.
What she just exerted was not the real control of thoughts, but the power of thoughts imagined by the fantasy kingdom.
This is the best way for her to grow.
As a Muggle, Joseph, who didn't know the difference, first asked Sarah to step back, and then he couldn't wait to open the iron door.
Instantly, an extremely foul smell hit his nostrils.
Joseph, who was the first to bear the brunt, turned pale, hurriedly covered his mouth, and backed away.
Sarah followed behind and evacuated.
After calming down for a while, Joseph said with an unhappy face: "Damn it! How long has it been since there was no ventilation in here?"
Sarah looked at all the darkness behind the iron door, and for some reason, she felt a sense of discomfort in her heart.
But come here, you have to go and see it.
Knowing that she could not stop Joseph's dream of getting rich, she did not work in vain.
After the stench had almost dissipated and the inside and outside were ventilated, Sarah and Joseph turned on the mobile phone flashlight to illuminate the front and walked toward the inside of the iron door.
Different from normal construction.
Behind the iron gate, there is not a straight passage, but a narrow and curved arc corridor.
Step inside.
Joseph was okay at first.
Within a few seconds, under the light of the mobile phone flashlight, I saw that the left and right walls were densely covered with paper pages recording the Bible, as well as a large number of crosses of different sects hanging on the walls.
He shivered all over.
All the dollar bills in my head suddenly disappeared.
Instead, there was the fear of the strange existence that was deeply remembered in the bottom of my heart.

Unconsciously, Joseph fell behind Sarah.
