Di Tiancheng felt sorry for his wife, and Chen Xi was worried about Liu Bingtao, so in the end only the two of them came to the company.
It was already time to get off work, and most people in the company had left. Because someone had died, even the security guard at the door did not stay and hurriedly took off his work clothes. When he saw Di Tiancheng, he was only slightly surprised, nodded and greeted him, and then ran away, fearing that he would be called down to work.
It can be seen that everyone cherishes their lives.
Chen Xi followed Di Tiancheng to the elevator room where accidents often happened. It was clean and tidy inside, and the walls were wiped clean enough to serve as mirrors, but this could not hide the fact that blood had once flowed here.
As soon as Chen Xi stepped in with her right leg, her brows furrowed. The bloody smell inside was too pungent and was a torture for someone with a well-developed sixth sense like her.
Resisting the nausea, Chen Xi said, "Close the elevator door."
Di Tiancheng pressed the close door button as Chen Xi instructed, but did not press the floor button.
As the elevator door closed, a faint evil spirit began to leak out from the gaps inside, surrounding people little by little.
Chen Xi knew that this was left by a female ghost, specifically used to mark prey.
When I saw the female ghost taking action before, the faint wrinkles on her forehead made it conservatively estimated that she was already at the early stage of the Ghost King level.
The Ghost King is considered the leader of all ghosts and he enjoys killing and abusing people. Under the Ghost King's command there are usually some evil ghosts who are like human's minions and only follow his lead.
Chen Xi calculated that the ghost would appear again tonight based on the remaining evil spirit. The corners of his lips curled up: "Check if everyone in the company has left. It's best if no one stays here, including you. Go home too."
Di Tiancheng frowned and looked at Chen Xi, not very agreeing: "I'll stay and help you. Although I'm not very good at magic, my fighting skills are pretty good."
He really wanted to stay and help. Although he couldn't help with the big things, he could still lend a hand. Besides, it was a bit ungentlemanly to leave a girl alone to face it. He would be nagged by his wife when he returned.
Chen Xi waved his hand: "No, I brought helpers."
Seeing that the man seemed to be unconvinced, he smiled and snapped his fingers. Xiaoying floated out of the jar with a look of contempt: "Go back, buddy. With your skills, the female ghost won't even have to work hard to kill you. Will your wife be left a widow by then? After all, she's such a beautiful little beauty."
Di Tiancheng followed Xiaoying's words, imagined his wife being with someone else, endured it, and immediately said: "Then you guys get busy, be careful, I'll go back first, and won't cause you any trouble."
After saying that, the person who was reluctant to leave ran away without looking back.
Chen Xi looked at the person with the wind under his feet in surprise, smiled and shook his head: "Sister Bing is so lucky."
"That's right, we are the only ones struggling to catch ghosts here, with no one loving us." Xiaoying agreed with a pout.
Pressed the close button again.
Chen looked at her back, thinking that she once had a happy family, but unfortunately things were the same as before.
Alas, he is also a poor man.
The two took the elevator to the top floor and waited in the elevator lobby.
An hour passed, the sky outside gradually darkened, and the whole building became eerily quiet.
In order not to alert the enemy, Chen Xi asked Xiaoying to go back into the jar, and the two of them started chatting, one inside and one outside.
Time passed by minute by minute. This was the fifteenth time that Chen Xi sat down on the top floor from the first floor. He thought that the Ghost King would not come today.
Chen Xi had just pressed the button for the first floor when the elevator suddenly began to shake violently. In order to cooperate with the performance, Chen Xi deliberately tripped himself and fell to the ground. When he looked up, a look of horror appeared on his face. He began to reach out in panic and kept pressing the numbers in the row until he pressed every number.
Just like the surveillance video I had seen before, these life-saving measures were useless. The elevator rose rapidly and then fell rapidly.
When he finally fell to the fourth floor, a cold wind blew behind him. Chen Xi knew that the Ghost King was coming. He curled the corners of his mouth and screamed deliberately.
"Ah... Help, is there anyone there?!"
He squatted down in fear, but in fact he was drawing talismans to seal off this enclosed space to prevent the Ghost King from disappearing out of thin air.
Ten seconds passed before the Ghost King realized something was wrong. The elevator, which was supposed to fall to the lower floor, did not fall as expected, but instead slowly landed on the first floor.
To her shock, the girl who was originally terrified actually stood up with a smile, her whole body relaxed, without any trace of panic or fear.
The Ghost King thought that his cultivation was already top-notch among ghosts. If he didn't show it actively, it would be impossible for others to see him. But what about this girl?
Why was she looking at her at this moment, smiling at her contemptuously, with a determination in her eyes.
She was determined to get something, and it made the ghost very unhappy just by looking at her.
The Ghost King was so angry that he revealed his true form in an instant, and said in a disembodied voice, "What's wrong with you?"
Chen Xi shrugged his shoulders and said nonchalantly, "That's it. I'm here to catch you."
When the Ghost King heard this, his eyes almost popped out of his head. He then laughed a few times, tears of blood streaming down his face. He clutched his stomach and said to Chen Xi disdainfully, "You? That's hilarious! I can rub your neck through with just one finger. And you're trying to catch me? Are you a prankster?"
Chen Xi curled the corner of his mouth and slapped the Ghost King on the cheek.
"Bang!"
The Ghost King was so dizzy from the slap in the face that was filled with magic power that he didn't even have time to retract the smile on his face.
This is very misleading. People who don't know the situation might think that she is a ghost king who likes to be beaten.
After a moment, the Ghost King felt incredible. She couldn't turn her head back!
He could only look at Chen Xi sideways with surprise in his eyes.
Chen Xi still let her look at him, forcing a smile: "This is your punishment for bragging!"
The Ghost King took a few steps back, fully alert.
He said in a deep voice: "You really can't judge a person by his appearance. I didn't expect that even a great Ghost King like me would make mistakes."
Chen Xi snorted softly.
You have made more than one mistake. You will soon realize that you are trapped.
The Ghost King couldn't stand being looked down upon the most. When she was alive, she was often bullied. Now that she had finally become the Ghost King after her death, she was still looked down upon by others. That was too frustrating.
The Ghost King's eyes were bloodshot as he pounced towards Chen Xi, trying to kill him with one blow.
Chen Xi smiled, turned around beautifully, dodged the attack of the female ghost, went around behind her, and struck the Ghost King on the back with a palm.
This palm was packed with 50% of the magic power. The Ghost King staggered forward and hit his head against the elevator wall.
The "bang" sound was particularly clear in this quiet company.
"Ah! I'm going to eat you!" The Ghost King was furious after being beaten. He didn't care about his swollen head and turned around to fight back at Chen Xi with all his strength.
