“Spiritual Affairs” is a highly popular psychic network, but it is a pity that the whole network is full of ridicule.
The contestants are frequently scolded for their behavior and practic...
When Gu Zhisang saw the message for help, she also sensed the strong aura of decline. She immediately read out the name of the person asking for help and invited her to interact via live broadcast.
When asked about the specific calculation method, the girl did not hesitate, and even urged anxiously:
"Video! Video, Sangsang!"
"Okay." Gu Zhisang responded, and then clicked on the video invitation.
Then a young girl's face popped up on the screen.
Nicknamed "Dan Juan", she looks to be in her twenties, with gray-blue dyed hair, fair skin, single eyelids, and a slim figure. She has the kind of cold and aloof face that many people in school would secretly love.
At this time, the girl was sitting in front of the camera and the background lighting was very dazzling.
There were four visible lights in the room, all on, making the whole room brightly lit.
"Sangsang! Something is really wrong at home!"
Egg Roll's tone was agitated. Her mental state and rest must have been poor recently. She had dark circles under her eyes and looked haggard.
After connecting via video and meeting the famous "magician" Gu Zhisang face to face, her fear and anxiety were slightly relieved.
After calming down, 'Danjuanjuan' introduced himself.
She is 23 years old, a graduate student, and currently rents a house.
The reason she turned on all the lights in the house was because she felt that she was haunted by something unclean.
There's a ghost around.
Dark environments make her feel frightened and uneasy. If she doesn't turn on the lights and make the whole room bright, she will be so terrified that she can't sleep.
Gu Zhisang glanced at the girl's lifeless face with a cold gaze.
"Nothing will happen to you. I and the audience in the live studio are here with you." Seeing that she was really suspicious and her eyes were full of anxiety, he said:
"If you are very scared, repeat after me."
Gu Zhisang uttered a string of somewhat difficult-to-pronounce spells slowly and clearly.
Although 'Danjuanjuan' didn't understand what was being said, nor did she know what the words were or what they meant, as soon as she opened her mouth she stumbled over and recited Gu Zhisang's curse, and the pitch was correct, as if Gu Zhisang's voice had been imprinted in her mind.
What made her feel even more magical was that after she recited it twice, the coldness and inexplicable eeriness that penetrated from her bones and almost made her teeth chatter gradually disappeared.
Her clenched shoulders relaxed and she felt the bright room was empty and eerie.
There is no doubt that Gu Zhisang's spell is effective.
Looking at Gu Zhisang's delicate and beautiful face on the screen, there was only admiration and excitement in 'Danjuanjuan's eyes.
There were also many online viewers in the live broadcast room chanting along.
When they heard their voice, which sounded particularly solemn and upright, they were all surprised. They didn't expect that they could be so serious.
Little did they know that some individual audience members who were laughing and joking and did not take the spell seriously, had negative energy that was vaguely connected to and entangled with them from nowhere, and all of them quietly disappeared under the effect of the spell.
During the live broadcast, 'Danjuanjuan' couldn't wait to send his birth date and photo to Gu Zhisang.
Gu Zhisang looked at her silently, and after a moment he spoke out the results of his calculations, describing the girl's childhood and adolescence information exactly as it was.
“You majored in finance in college and later was admitted to a graduate program in a related field.
If you have a strong fortune star and a strong Qi Sha star in your horoscope, it means that you are ambitious and proactive, can endure hardships, and like the feeling of making money - this is not a derogatory word, but a compliment. "
"Besides that, your horoscope is evenly distributed, with the three corresponding stars of Tianxiang, Lucun and Guaxiu all falling in the tenth house, corresponding to the three-level stars of 'Jia Yi Bing';
This means that you like dealing with money and are suitable for the financial industry. "
Looking at the natal chart from the horoscope, the 2nd house corresponds to the 'House of Wealth', the 10th house represents career opportunities, and the 11th house often shows a person's social relationships...If many stars appear in these three houses, the person is born to be a businessman.
'Egg Roll' is such a star plate.
Hearing his expertise being praised, Danjuanjuan couldn't help but smile.
Gu Zhisang: “From deduction, we can know that you are in your second year of graduate school this year, and you have had considerable internship experience and have been exposed to industry affairs;
The reason you live outside instead of in the school dormitory is because you are doing an internship, right?"
"Yes." Egg Roll nodded and said, "As the saying goes, I am 'money-shy'. I really like the feeling of making money and getting a promotion and a raise at work. The financial industry was a popular major a few years ago, but it is now saturated and the competition is high. I don't have any good connections at home, so I can only get into a big company if my resume is good enough."
Apparently, 'Egg Roll' is the latter.
She had good academic performance and was pursuing a master's degree at a key university, but it was not enough to make her stand out in this highly competitive industry.
She has participated in internships since her junior year and has had four internship experiences.
She is still in the internship period, but the school is jointly involved in an internship program with a large enterprise. If she performs very well during the internship, she has a certain chance to be directly accepted by the enterprise and sign a contract;
Even if you are not accepted, an excellent intern will add a lot of color to your resume.
Therefore, "Danjuanjuan" attaches great importance to this internship.
However, what Gu Zhisang said next made her face change suddenly.
"If I'm not mistaken, the 'weird things' you encountered and the feeling that you were entangled by something dirty started after this internship." Gu Zhisang said in a flat tone, and then threw a 'bomb':
"There's a dead air about you."
"Literally, the smell of the dead is very strong."
Glancing at Egg Roll's pale, tightly pursed lips, Gu Zhisang asked, "In the past half month, or more recently, has anyone around you died?"
"And you witnessed the other person's death, right?"
Her tone was calm and firm, and she was sure of the accuracy of her deduction.
As if Gu Zhisang's words reminded him of a scene he didn't want to recall, Egg Roll's shoulders trembled and he nodded in panic:
"Yes, about ten days ago, a boy who shared the apartment with us fell from a building in the rental area... I was just getting off work and coming back from my internship at the company, and I heard a muffled sound, which scared me..."
'Egg Roll's narration was intermittent, but at least he made the story clear.
It turned out that the school she attended was in a first-tier city, and the company where she worked was in a busy business district with high prices and a large flow of people. The daily commute from school to work would take a long time, and the round-trip fare was not cheap.
For this reason, she found a shared apartment near her workplace, which had three bedrooms and two living rooms, faced the sun, was well decorated, and had good sound insulation.
The owner of the house is a young beauty, a local from a wealthy family. Her family bought her an apartment in a prosperous area when she was still young - the same apartment that "Danjuanjuan" rented.
That house should have been renovated by the owner.
One side of the sunny living room was converted into a floor-to-ceiling window at a high price, and the suite was converted into four bedrooms, with two beds in the largest bedroom;
Except for a pair of junior girls from a nearby university who already knew each other and lived together in the large bedroom with two beds, the remaining three rooms were rented to three other people including "Danjuanjuan".
According to 'Danjuanjuan', one of them is a girl who just graduated a year and a half ago and works as a white-collar worker in a company in a nearby business district. She is two years older than her, and the two have the best relationship in the shared house.
The other tenant is a boy, a small internet celebrity, whose daily job is to shoot videos and do live broadcasts.
One of the reasons why several girls are willing to share a house with a man is that he is gay, has better makeup skills than them, is easy to get along with and has no messy problems at all.
Besides that, the most important thing is that it is cheap.
For a house of the same size, location, and decoration, even if five people share the rent, each person will have to pay 2,000 to 3,000 yuan, or even more.
But the total rental cost of this apartment is less than 10,000 yuan, with an average rent of more than 1,000 yuan per person per month.
In such a prosperous area, you can rent a house with complete facilities, decoration and excellent style at such a low price. I am afraid you can't find it within ten kilometers.
"Danjuanjuan", who was still studying and had a tight budget, was attracted almost immediately after seeing the house and signing a six-month rental contract.
Before the incident, she had lived there for four months and had become familiar with the tenants in the apartment.
She has the best relationship with the white-collar worker, followed by the male internet celebrity, and the other two young girls were originally roommates and moved out together, so they have a better relationship;
Although there is some friction, it is generally comfortable and pleasant.
Who would have thought that ten days ago, this peace and tranquility was suddenly broken!
After she finished work that day, the white-collar worker sent her a message saying that he was also going to get off work.
So the two of them made an appointment to have dinner outside and brought a few desserts to take back to their roommates.
Who would have thought that just as the two of them walked downstairs, they caught a glimpse of a black shadow out of the corner of their eyes, falling rapidly from above and hitting the edge of the flower bed less than ten meters away from them.
The muffled sound and the screams of others scared them. When they looked back with wide eyes, they were both stunned with fear.
By the time 'Danjuanjuan' reacted, she couldn't control herself and started screaming along with the girls around her, and even her legs went limp.
The one falling from the sky was a person.
A man.
His body smashed on the edge of the flower bed, his arms were pierced by branches, his spine was severed by the flower bed guardrail, and he lay softly on his back not far away, like a pile of crushed mud, with blood flowing all over the ground and soaking the porcelain white wall of the flower bed.
The man's cervical vertebrae were broken, his head was tilted downward, and a large amount of blood was flowing out of his mouth and nose, blurring his face;
At the same time, because he fell from too high a floor, he almost died on the spot. His pupils, which had not yet dilated, stared at the direction of "Danjuanjuan" and the other person. His body twitched slightly and his face was distorted. It was impossible to tell his original appearance.
But the 'egg roll' and the white-collar workers recognized him.
The man was still wearing the flashy shirt they were all so familiar with, and his iconic purple hair was stained with blood.
This is their roommate.
The only boy!
"Danjuanjuan" witnessed the tragic death of this man with her own eyes, and her whole body was trembling. By the time she realized that her palms were tingling, she had already fallen to the ground and her palms were rubbed raw.
From then on, she had nightmares for a week, and whenever she closed her eyes, she would recall the scenes of that day.
As for white-collar females, their situation was even worse. They were so upset that they asked for a long vacation and moved out of the shared dormitory.
The dormitory suddenly became even more empty and desolate with two people missing. Fortunately, the landlord offered to halve the rent for the second half of the year in order to express his apology and compensate the remaining three people.
With this calculation, each of them pays less than one thousand yuan in rent per month!
For three girls who are still in school, it is really a good deal.
After hearing this, many viewers in the live broadcast room commented:
[Good fellow, this is a haunted house! How dare you three rent it? Especially you, the one asking for help. You saw the scene with your own eyes. How dare you? ? ]
【What was the cause of death of the boy? 】
[You shouldn't continue renting this place. No matter what the reason, a house where someone has recently died will have evil spirits. The owner probably wants to use living people like you to add some positive energy to the house and liven it up.
Otherwise, if something goes wrong, the house will be empty and it will be difficult to rent or sell it in the future. 】
[Haha, doesn't this what you deserve? Anyone with a brain wouldn't continue living here! ]
[Those who are calling the person asking for help "stupid" and "greedy" in the comments should stop. As the saying goes, if you have done nothing wrong, you don't have to worry about ghosts knocking on your door. The person falling from the building has nothing to do with the person asking for help.
I have also worked hard on my own since graduation, so I can understand the sadness and consideration of Dan Juan girl. Who would want to share a house with others if they have the money to rent a single house? The housing prices in the city center of first-tier cities are so expensive, and it is not safe for a girl to live alone. 】
【……】
'Dan Juan Juan' also saw the dispute in the barrage, she smiled bitterly and said:
"Everyone's criticism is justified. I also regret continuing to rent there."
"But the housing prices there are really low. If I leave and go back to the dormitory, the round trip will take at least three hours every day. I can't afford it!
If I change my residence, not only will I not be able to find such a cheap and nearby apartment, I also have to consider the character of the residents..."
The internship is very important to her.
Towards the end of the period, other people in her period worked very hard, leaving home at seven or eight o'clock every day. Naturally, she couldn't fall behind others, otherwise all her efforts of the past six months would be wasted.
In addition, the other two female college students who shared the apartment with me would not move out either - they also did not have much money, and the university accommodation fees were paid per semester. Even if they moved out, they could not return to the dormitory and had to find a new place to live.
Moreover, they did not witness the death of their roommate, so they were not that scared. The two girls still lived in the same bedroom and were able to comfort and protect each other.
So they accepted the landlord's "compensation" and agreed to continue renting the house as long as the condition of "finding enough vacant tenants to move in as soon as possible" was met.
The landlord lowered the price again, and within just two days, he found two girls who were also attracted by the low price and were not afraid of the reputation of "haunted house", and signed rental contracts with them.
Seeing that the dormitory was filled up again and the room that the deceased male roommate shared had been replaced by a new roommate by the landlord, after considering many factors, "Danjuanjuan" also chose to stay.
Gu Zhisang spoke at the right time and asked:
"Since you chose to stay, why did you move out?"
Judging from the appearance of 'Danjuanjuan', her most recent short migration was just three days ago.
She moved out of the shared apartment in a hurry and lost a lot of money. Gu Zhisang deduced that she must have violated the rental contract and had her deposit withheld.
After a moment of silence, 'Egg Roll' said, "I feel uncomfortable and have been having nightmares."
“The scene in the dream changed from the boy falling from the building at the beginning to a dark shadow. Sometimes even with my eyes closed, I could still feel something staring at me by the bed or beside me!
I swear this is real, not my illusion or hallucination, because from that time on, my body became extremely cold, no matter how many clothes I wore or how thick the blanket was, or in the sun, I still wanted to shiver. "
"Then what?" Gu Zhisang asked.
"Then I called Sister Ye, the girl who moved away, and it was her mother who answered. Her mother said that Sister Ye had resigned and returned to her hometown. Her mental state was very bad. Like me, she had nightmares every day. She could see dead people standing far away in the dark dreams, or staring at her by the bed!
Her mother planned to take her to her hometown to find a master who could exorcise evil spirits and treat her.
"When I heard this, I thought Sister Ye's situation was exactly the same as mine. We're both entangled!"
"But I swear, I never harmed the boy who died. Sister Ye and I had a good relationship with him and often had dinner together. We never thought that he, who looked so cheerful, would be so depressed that he would jump off the building. I don't understand why he wanted to pester Sister Ye and me."
After talking about these experiences and the doubts in his heart, "Danjuanjuan" felt much more relaxed, and the feeling of grievance surged in his heart.
Gu Zhisang raised his eyebrows slightly and asked:
"Did that person commit suicide?"
"Yes." 'Dan Juan Juan' nodded and said, "At that time, the four of us were working or studying, and he was the only one at home. He was the only one who had a high degree of professional freedom at home for a long time. He was often asleep when we left home, and ready to go out when we returned."
She recalled: "Because we were sharing a house, each bedroom was a private area. Only the living room was equipped with a surveillance camera, and there was also a property surveillance camera in the corridor outside. When the police came to investigate that day, they also summoned me and Sister Ye to be questioned and to record our statements."
"The surveillance footage in the hallway showed that after the rest of us left the house that day, except for the boy who ordered a takeaway at noon and opened the door to get his meal, no one else came in or out at other times.
As for the surveillance footage in the living room, we could only see him suddenly walk into the surveillance range from outside the camera, then walk to the French window, and then jump out of the window..."
The landlord has good taste and changed the wall into floor-to-ceiling windows.
Glass is a special material and is very strong.
For ventilation, a square ventilation window was opened at the top, which can be opened and closed, but it is quite difficult to climb out from this window.
In the living room surveillance video, the boy moved a stool and stepped on it by himself, opened the window, and struggled to squeeze his not-so-thin body out of the window frame.
Because the frame was made of silver metal, there were several long marks of squeezing and scratching left on his arms and waist, some of which were severely broken and bleeding.
After falling to death, bruises appeared on the stiff body.
Everything seemed perfectly normal, no one had poisoned him, no one had murdered him.
But it's also very weird.
During the subsequent investigation, the police found some chat records in the boy’s mobile phone.
He is a makeup blogger. While he gained love and money by posting short videos on video platforms, he also received a lot of abuse and insults.
Accepting these insults for a long time caused him to have psychological problems, and the words "I want to die" often appeared in his chats with some friends.
Twenty minutes before he fell from the building, he was still chatting with his friends and complaining about those who scolded him online.
Apart from these, there is really no other reason for suicide or signs of homicide.
It was precisely because the boy committed suicide that the house did not become a real "haunted house" and a new tenant was found so quickly.
After saying this information, 'Dan Juan Juan' is still confused:
"Sangsang, why is he pestering me and Sister Ye? Could it be that we have offended him before without knowing it?"
Gu Zhisang asked the name of the boy who fell from the building, then took out the cards and made a divination.
When she got the second hexagram, she realized that things were not that simple.
She raised her eyes, her gaze was cold:
"You are wrong. I don't sense much resentment from you. It's more of an obsession. That person is not pestering you two. He has placed his obsession on you for some special reasons."
Both "Danjuanjuan" and the white-collar worker surnamed Ye saw the scene where the boy died.
According to metaphysics, the scene of sudden death should not be watched.
You can't even look at the body of a person who died suddenly.
The soul of the deceased is often destroyed and shaken out of the body in an instant. He dies in pain, and either feels unwilling or has some last wishes.
At this time, if people nearby look at them, those with weak physiques and fragile bodies will easily be "punished" and hated, or entangled. The ghosts of those who died suddenly hope that these people can help them fulfill their last wishes and obsessions and help them take revenge.
The 'Egg Roll' encountered the latter.
That boy definitely didn't commit suicide as 'Danjuanjuan' said.
He was unwilling and obsessed after his sudden death, and it happened to be witnessed by "Danjuanjuan" and a white-collar worker named Ye. The truth of the matter is likely related to these two people.
That's why this "obsession" has always lingered around the two of them, and is so strong that it affects their normal lives.
But if the evil spirit on "Danjuanjuan" does not come from the resentment of the deceased, then it must come from somewhere else!
"It seems that I made a wrong judgment." She looked at the girl through the screen, and the thick evil spirit and corpse aura that covered her body was so thick that it seemed to be real. She narrowed her eyes and said:
"The corpse qi on your body was not acquired more than ten days ago. It should be said that it was not only that. As early as half a month ago, or even more than a month ago, you had dealt with other corpses."
'Egg Roll'/Audience:? ! !
"Impossible!" 'Dan Juan Juan' denied it in a voice: "I have been commuting between my rental place and the company for the past six months. No one has had an accident except the boy I share the room with. I have also never returned home to sweep the graves. It is impossible for me to have any contact with a corpse..."
She was quite confident at first, but after hearing Gu Zhisang's next words, she broke out in a cold sweat.
"Your roommate fell from the building for no reason in the house he rented. How do you know that there is nothing wrong with the house?"
'Egg Roll's face turned pale.
Gu Zhisang: "Do you still have the key to the shared apartment? If you're not afraid, you can go there right now via live broadcast and let me see the feng shui of the house.
If we wait until tomorrow, we may not be able to see anything.”
"But whether to go or not depends on what you, the one asking for help, want to do."
It's already dark outside.
From the bright lights in the house and the tightly drawn curtains, one can see that Danjuanjuan is afraid of the darkness, so she naturally would not force Danjuanjuan to go out.
But the live broadcast has already started, let me say something without any modesty:
"Spiritual Matters" is so popular, and she, Gu Zhisang, is so popular, maybe the landlord and the tenants inside are watching her live broadcast now;
Even if you haven't read it, it won't take more than ten minutes for related entries to dominate the top of the trending searches.
Almost all young people who access the Internet can see what happened tonight.
One night is enough to do a lot.
If we don't rush back to investigate now while the other party hasn't reacted, there might be something strange in the house and the owner would have to deal with it overnight.
'Dan Juan Juan' obviously understood what Gu Zhisang meant.
She glanced at the window that was tightly blocked by curtains, but she still felt scared.
After hesitating for a while, she gritted her teeth, stood up and said:
"Sangsang, wait for me to put on some clothes, I'll be there right away!"
"I have to figure out what's going on here!"
