Chapter 17: The Ghost Looking for Someone

"Xixi, don't talk nonsense. Although that person is a little strange, but..."

When he said this, he suddenly thought of the smell of that person, which was so strange.

He had previously thought that it was the smell of sweat from a day's work, but now that he thought about it, the smell clearly had a hint of decay.

Moreover, the man's hands were stiff and cold, without any warmth to the touch, like a piece of dead wood.

His face turned pale, and the more he thought about it, the weirder it seemed. The man walked in a very stiff manner, and he seemed to hear his joints crackling as he walked. His footsteps dragged on the ground, as heavy as bricks.

"In fact, you also found the other party very strange, but you didn't think of it as a dead person. After all, dead people don't move."

Lin Xiyue revealed what Lin Zhenxing was thinking in one sentence.

"Dead bodies don't move, but ghost bodies do."

Lin Xiyue said, looking around, "This building was originally built in a shady place. Although there is a mountain behind it, it is a cemetery, which makes the yin energy even heavier. This person died here, and no one found the body. The soul could not leave the body, and it was nourished by the yin energy for a long time, and it turned into a ghost corpse."

Lin Zhenxing felt that his three perspectives were about to be shattered.

He couldn't help but ask, "How did this man die?"

"Why did no one find me when I died here?"

"It was his bad luck. He was a worker here. One night he was drunk and walking back to the temporary shed built at the construction site to sleep. It rained a little that night and the road was slippery. He was drunk and was already staggering when he walked. He missed a step and fell down. His body was pierced by several steel bars."

"He wasn't dead yet. A steel bar had just pierced his mouth. He opened his mouth but couldn't call for help. A cement truck came by to pour cement on the ground. It was dark and drizzling. No one would find him. The truck of cement sealed him in alive."

When Lin Zhenxing heard what Lin Xiyue said, he felt a chill all over his body.

Just thinking about that cruel scene is suffocating. You can imagine how desperate the worker was at that time.

"Then...then how did he get out?"

"Then, during the pandemic, the foundation was left unused for a few years. By the time construction started, the developer had changed. The developer was not satisfied with the previous foundation, so he used a large machine to dig up the previous foundation again. That's when he came out."

"During the past few years of the epidemic, many people were buried on that mountain, and the negative energy became increasingly serious. The terrain of this building just happened to gather energy, forming an extremely good place to raise corpses, which is why he turned into a corpse in just a few years."

"He helped you last night because his wages were deducted by the unscrupulous foreman. He went out drinking alone in the middle of the night because the New Year was approaching and he didn't get his wages for a year. He didn't know how to explain to his wife and children when he got home, and he was depressed. He didn't expect that he would have an accident on the way home. After his death, he kept thinking about this incident, and his soul left his body and finally became a ghost corpse."

Lin Zhenxing was stunned when he heard this. At this moment, his three views and the world view had officially collapsed.

If what his daughter said was true, then who was that unscrupulous contractor? Would the ghost go looking for him?

"He has been wandering around this area since he got out, looking for the contractor. Coincidentally, he found the man last night."

Lin Xiyue’s words shocked Lin Zhenxing.

"Could that person be..."

Lin Xiyue nodded. Yes, it was him.

The contractor who was mean, ugly, sarcastic, and deliberately made things difficult for Lin Zhenxing
