After arriving at the staff dormitory, I could clearly feel that the surroundings had become quieter and there were very few people moving around.
"You two, head this way. This wall has been reinforced and sealed off everywhere. There's only one door here."
This is what Manager Lu did when he listened to the advice of a master before him.
Although ghosts mostly appear in the form of souls, walls and doors cannot stop them. However, even though they are dead, they still retain some human instincts. For example, they will usually avoid walls and door panels and will not force their way through them.
Of course, if the ghost is determined to break in, then no matter how high or thick the wall is, it will be useless.
Xiao He brought the two of them to the door, took out the key and unlocked it, and the three of them stepped over the threshold and reached the other side of the wall.
Outside the wall was a forest. The trees were not dense, but because no one had set foot there for many years, it looked quite desolate and bleak, forming a sharp contrast with the lively villa on the other side of the wall.
Lin Xi took a quick look and suddenly noticed a small raised mound somewhere in the woods.
She asked Xiao He: "Is that the lonely grave?"
The mound was so small that Lin Xi was not sure whether it was a grave.
Little He nodded vigorously, his eyes filled with surprise.
"Yes, that's it!"
When he first saw the small mound, he thought it was just a pile of soil and fallen leaves. Unexpectedly, Lin Xi recognized it as a grave mound at a glance.
I didn't expect Lin Xi to have such sharp eyes. It seems he is really capable.
Xiao He immediately showed great respect for her.
After getting confirmation, Lin Xi went to the grave mound.
It’s a pity that there is only a faint aura of gloom around the grave mound, and no signs of any ghostly activities.
It seems that just as Manager Lu said, this ghost will not come out until the day comes.
Without birth date or anything related to the ghost, even Lin Xi couldn't summon the ghost.
It seems that the only way is to wait until the ghost comes out on the 10th to meet him and then ask him in person.
But what Lin Xi found strange was that there seemed to be only this one grave nearby.
When they went up the mountain before, they saw that there were residents at the foot of the mountain and in the mountains, and there were even a few families near the villa. It can be seen that there are actually quite a few people living in this mountain.
If that’s the case, there must be more than one grave on the mountain.
Lin Xi asked Xiao He, "There should be other graves in front of this place. Have they all been moved?"
If there were still a few graves, she might try to contact the owners of those graves and ask them about the ghost's situation.
After all, as a "neighbor", he must know something.
It’s a pity that there is only that one grave in the entire forest and the back mountain.
Xiao He nodded.
"Yes, I heard from the elders who worked at the villa that there used to be several graves nearby, but when the villa was built, the families of those graves were asked to move them."
In fact, if they had not asked everyone in the mountains and still could not find his family, this grave would not have been left alone.
The forest behind is quite large and can be developed to build other projects.
Unfortunately, I can’t find the family members, so there’s nothing I can do.
Their boss is probably a businessman with some conscience, and perhaps he was afraid of retribution for digging up someone's grave, so he never touched the land.
I don’t know if it’s because of his conscience, the ghost has appeared every year for so many years and has never harmed anyone in the villa.
Lin Xi understood what he said and agreed to come back in the early morning of the 10th.
The three of them went straight back to the lobby.
As soon as I arrived at the lobby, I saw a group of people moving around in a hurry.
Xiao He didn't understand what was going on, so he quickly went up to ask a familiar person.
"What's wrong? What happened? Why is everyone so panicked?"
