◎Gathering Yin◎
"It looks like this is it."
Jiang Chuxu shook the notebook, feeling that this was the source of the obsession of the booking ghost. It was like a small advertisement, spreading resentment everywhere to attract similar people.
Xue Han and Manager Chen were leaning against the door frame to peek in, with the camera of Xue Han's mobile phone still stubbornly pointed at the inside of the room.
"Master Jiang, where are those three little devils?" Manager Chen's voice was still a little weak.
"I'll take it. It's not a big problem."
Jiang Chuxu put the notebook into the canvas bag he carried with him, his movements very naturally.
"This room is clean for now. The source is still lingering somewhere else. The negative energy inside is also easy to deal with. From now on, light mugwort incense in the room every day for a few days. When you see the smoke rise straight up 20 to 30 centimeters, it means there is no problem."
Jiang Chuxu opened the curtains and looked around the room. After the little ghost in the room was taken away, the whole room finally no longer had a gray feeling.
"The guy who booked the room must have sensed it and is probably heading here."
The 25th and 26th floors should be the main areas of activity for the room-booking ghost. The ghost rarely appears on the other floors from 13 to 24. At most, the room-booking ghost's minions will occasionally go there to guard against another group of ghosts from the 13th floor and below running up.
There are only these three little ghosts on the 26th floor, and the other little brothers of the booking ghost mainly move around on the 25th floor.
They must have noticed the movement of the three little ghosts just now. The reason they didn't come up was not only because they knew they couldn't beat Jiang Chuxu and Xiao Hei, but also because they might not have received orders from the boss.
From what the booking ghost said when booking the room and the words on the notebook, it can be seen that the booking ghost has a strong sense of territory and is very strict with rules.
"Xiao Hei, pay attention to the location of the booking ghost, and the ghost staring at the 25th floor."
Xiao Hei's perception can completely cover the 25th and 26th layers. Hearing this, he meowed as a response, and flicked the tip of his tail lightly, as if he was relying on me.
Xue Han and Manager Chen subconsciously shrank closer to Xiao Hei, who seemed to have become a mobile safe haven.
[Xiao Hei: My KPI today is stalking]
This hotel is full of ghosts.
[The source is coming! Nervous!]
Not long after, the emergency door leading to the stairwell on the 25th floor at the end of the corridor was suddenly knocked open by an invisible force with a clang.
A cold wind that was ten times colder than the room before and filled with a strong sense of anxiety rushed in.
The lights in the entire corridor and room 2615 flickered a few times. Although they stubbornly stayed on, the brightness dimmed visibly.
A blurry figure appeared. This ghost was not tall and was wearing a suit. He lowered his head and his face could not be seen clearly. One could only clearly see the black air wrapped around him.
The room booking ghost was more powerful than the three ghosts before him combined. The anger that my territory had been invaded and the grievance that my room was gone, mixed with a kind of fatigue unique to office workers, rushed straight to my head.
"My...room." A dry, hoarse voice filled the entire 26th floor. "Why would I let someone else live in it?"
Manager Chen's legs went weak and he almost fell to the ground.
Xue Han also bit his lips tightly, but he kept his hand holding the phone steady, with the camera fixed on the ghost who booked the room.
Jiang Chuxu took two steps forward, standing between the two shivering men and the black shadow.
She asked in the same tone as if asking if he had eaten: "2615?"
The booking ghost suddenly raised his head!
Although his facial features were still blurry, one could clearly feel him staring at Jiang Chuxu. The anger of having his territory invaded instantly overwhelmed the grievance: "It's mine! I ordered it! I paid for it!"
His voice became increasingly shrill, with an almost hysterical persistence.
Manager Chen whispered from the back: "You didn't pay."
The booking ghost was choked by Manager Chen's whispered complaint, and the negative energy in his body stagnated.
"I paid!" It suddenly turned towards Manager Chen, and its shrill voice made the emergency passage door buzz.
"I paid with my notebook, it's my only proof! You living people are breaking your promise and occupying my room!"
That bit of grievance was completely replaced by rage, and the negative energy around the booking ghost surged, and the negative energy suddenly spread out with strong malice.
Most of the light in the corridor was instantly swallowed up, and the temperature around it dropped sharply, as if one was in an ice cellar.
Xue Han and Manager Chen's teeth began to chatter, and they felt a chill running through their bones.
【Ghost: Are you polite?】
[This is really a slap in the face by physics]
[Anchor, help! ]
"Xiao Hei!"
As soon as Jiang Chuxu finished speaking, the room booking ghost rushed to his front.
The cold wind was biting and the malice was almost condensed into substance. Xue Han and Manager Chen felt like their hearts were about to stop beating.
Xiao Hei moved suddenly. Instead of pouncing on the aggressive booking ghost, he pounced on the suddenly distorted shadow at the nearby staircase.
“Meow——!”
A cat's cry with a strong intimidating sound was heard.
Almost at the same time, several ghosts rushed out from the shadows at the stairs, targeting Xue Han and Manager Chen, who were almost unable to move because of the booking ghost's fright.
Those ghosts on the 25th floor wanted to take advantage of the opportunity.
Xiao Hei's small body seemed to have an invisible aura in the air, and its claws slammed hard on the ghost in front.
The ghost didn't even make a sound and instantly disintegrated into a few wisps of green smoke.
The remaining ghosts screamed in fear and turned around to run away.
Xiao Hei landed on the ground with its tail raised high, a fierce light in its pupils, and it kept barking towards the stairs, nailing those ghosts in place.
"Well done, Xiao Hei!" Jiang Chuxu did not forget to give a thumbs up to his little partner even in front of the booking ghost.
【Xiao Hei is so awesome】
【Cat God of War! 】
【Ghost: Sneak attack failed】
The room booking ghost didn't care about what happened to his younger brothers. All its anger was poured out on Jiang Chuxu. The evil energy instantly twisted into a huge ghost claw and slapped Jiang Chuxu.
"You're so stubborn." Jiang Chuxu curled his lips, with a hint of disgust on his face.
She shook the necklace in her hand, and time seemed to slow down. The ghost who booked the room also moved out of control, and memories of his previous life kept flashing through his mind.
I don’t know if it was an illusion, but in the eyes of Xue Han and Manager Chen, the necklace in Jiang Chuxu’s hand seemed to be glowing.
Suddenly, a piercing sound exploded, like cold water poured into hot oil. The thick yin energy evaporated wildly, making a teeth-grinding sizzling sound.
The ghost who booked the room let out a wail of extreme pain, and his entire blurry figure struggled and twisted frantically in the white light, trying to break free from the constraints of the light.
The soft light emitted by the necklace is like a rope wrapped around the booking ghost.
"Let me go, that's my room, my credentials, and all of you damned living people must die!"
The booking ghost's form became increasingly unstable, leaving only hysterical roars resonating in the corridor.
"You didn't pay for your room, and you left a notebook and you want to live here. How did you come up with such a good idea?"
With a howl that suddenly stopped, the booking ghost turned into a very thin wisp of black air and was absorbed by the necklace, disappearing completely.
"Done."
Jiang Chuxu snapped his fingers and put the necklace back into his pocket with a relaxed look.
She didn't want to hear about these ghosts' unspeakable secrets that had to harm others. Those words were basically made up, and it was a waste of time to listen to them.
Now there are only a few ghosts left on the 25th floor. After hearing the screams of the ghost who booked the room, those ghosts trembled and huddled in the corner.
These ghosts are easy to deal with. Those that have harmed people can be dispersed. Those that have not harmed people can be collected first and sent to the temple for transformation and reincarnation after they have been dealt with.
[Booking Ghost: I haven't finished my harsh words yet! ]
[Host: Oh, next one]
[Sometimes I feel like it’s easy to deal with ghosts]
[Where are the ghosts? 】
[The host is in the Xinfeng Hotel where there are many ghosts]
Xue Han and Manager Chen leaned against the cold wall, their backs covered in cold sweat and their clothes stuck tightly to their bodies.
But seeing Jiang Chuxu's relaxed look after dealing with the disobedient kid, their tense nerves inexplicably relaxed a little.
This is probably the confidence of the boss?
"The 25th and 26th floors are done and we're done!" Jiang Chuxu clapped his hands and said in a cheerful tone.
"For the remaining Yin Qi, follow the method I mentioned before."
Xiao Hei walked back to Jiang Chuxu's feet, wagged his tail, and let out a satisfied purr from his throat.
Jiang Chuxu picked up Xiao Hei and walked towards the elevator again.
Xue Han and Manager Chen hurried to catch up. Xue Han asked quietly, "Don't you want to take a break?"
Jiang Chuxu glanced at Xue Han strangely, then shook his head decisively: "I'll leave sooner if I can finish this, and these ghosts aren't that powerful."
"Besides, the group below are the real ones. They are tied to the hole in the basement of the hotel. If we don't seal the hole and drive them away, it will be useless. It will only attract more ruthless and difficult ones."
Three people and a cat walked into the elevator. Xue Han didn't understand what the opening meant, so he asked.
Jiang Chuxu explained: "This opening is a bit like the eye of the formation. The hotel gathers Yin. In addition to the feng shui, there are also things that gather Yin. Otherwise, it would not attract two big ghosts at once."
Jiang Chuxu used to think that these big ghosts were attracted by the yin-gathering feng shui, but now it seems that is not the case. She wants to check what is on the first floor.
The elevator slowly descended, and when it reached the -1 floor and the door opened, steam hit my face and there was a fishy smell in the air.
Xue Han and Manager Chen supported each other as they walked out. Manager Chen had a sad face and said, "This bathhouse feels even more eerie than the one up there."
Obviously, there is not much negative energy in the live broadcast, at least not like the scene on the 26th floor which was filled with negative energy, but this is what makes it even more frightening.
"Inside the bathhouse."
Jiang Chuxu didn't stop and walked straight to the door marked "Men's Bath" at the end of the corridor.
She pushed the door open and walked in. In front of her was a not-so-small changing area with rows of gray metal lockers standing against the wall.
After passing through the changing area, Jiang Chuxu came to the main part of the bathhouse. He glanced around and his eyes fell on the large soaking pool in the center.
"Was it that Feng Shui master who recommended you to build this pond?"
Xue Han shook her head. She thought about it carefully before saying, "I remember he also said that water gathers yin, so we should try not to turn the -1 floor into a bathhouse. If we really have to make one, we shouldn't have anything that can store water. That's why we installed so many shower heads."
"But then another person came and said he was the master's apprentice. He said his master had made a few mistakes at the time, and he only remembered them after he left, so he specifically asked him to explain them."
Xue Han had seen that man following the Feng Shui master she hired a long time ago, but she hadn't seen him for a long time since then. However, she didn't doubt it at the time.
She thought that since it didn't matter, she might as well build a large hot spring pool. The employees were tired at work and could relax after get off work.
There must be something wrong with the large hot spring pools in both the women's and men's baths. The man who claims to be a Feng Shui master's apprentice may be the culprit behind all this.
