The oil lamp has been lit.

Feng Qing was drinking Coke while looking at Di Cong, whose face was pale.

It must be said that after being scared, this guy became much cuter.

But Feng Qing also felt a little guilty.

She thought to herself, what on earth does that big TV mean to this guy in front of her? Why can it scare him like this.

But for now, it seems that Feng Qing still has to pay attention to the child's physical and mental health, otherwise, judging from the current situation, it is easy to receive complaints.

Di Cong has been trembling.

He felt that his brain had been scared out of his mind just now.

But Di Cong could still remember what happened in the last second just now.

——He was touching the zoetrope, wondering curiously why it was black, when the zoetrope suddenly reflected a picture.

A picture that looked like something from hell.

Thousands of ghosts were chasing him.

These people's faces were stained with countless blood, their clothes were tattered, their eyes were empty, and they were howling in terror as they rushed towards him. At

that moment, Di Cong thought of those who had died at his hands.

When each of them died, their bodies were more or less stained with blood.

Just like what was inside the zoetrope.

The black zoetrope can indeed reflect some things.

However, it may not be suitable for ordinary people to use.

Whenever Di Cong thought of that scene, he felt his body tremble.

Even so, the words he said to Chu Changzui during the day seemed to still ring loudly.

"I, Di Cong, will never believe that there are ghosts in this world even if I am chopped to death, die outside, or jump from here!"

"What... did you see just now?" Feng Qing asked tentatively.

She wanted to see if she was completely exposed, and what to do if she was.

"I..." Di Cong looked at the shopkeeper's face, he was not sure what the shopkeeper wanted him to say.

Moreover, he still couldn't forget the scene when the shopkeeper just came in.

...It was clearly a scene like hell a second ago, with ghosts and monsters crying crazily.

But the moment the shopkeeper pushed the door open and walked in, everything became quiet.

Even those scary ghosts seemed to be suddenly frightened.

They all froze there.

The shopkeeper walked in with a calm face. She looked at the group of ghosts as if she was looking at something very ordinary.

Then, she said lightly, "I told you not to enter this room."

Her tone simply scared Di Cong.

He trembled a little.

Before, Di Cong thought that the shopkeeper said this just because he didn't want him to explore the secrets of this inn.

Now it seems that there really is a secret in this inn.

However, it is the kind of secret that will kill you if you touch it.

Could it be that the shopkeeper is going to kill him now to silence him? Di Cong thought tremblingly.

He didn't know what these ghosts were all about, but looking at the shopkeeper's appearance, she should have known what was hidden here a long time ago, and should have been tired of such scenes a long time ago.

Why was she so calm?

Di Cong had never believed in ghosts and gods, but at this moment, he had to believe that there might really be something in this world that he didn't know about.

However, the number of dead people far exceeded the number of people he had killed.

Di Cong had a vague guess in his heart.

Maybe these ghosts were not looking for him at all.

They were more like looking for the shopkeeper.

But right now, what he needed to do was to answer the questions raised by the shopkeeper first.

"I, I didn't see anything." Di Cong shook his head and said, "I didn't hear anything either."

Feng Qing saw the man's reaction and thought to herself.

This man must have seen everything that just happened.

Isn't this ridiculous? If an ancient person encountered such a thing, he would probably think he saw a ghost.

If he didn't keep his mouth shut and told everyone about it, Feng Qing would probably be dragged to the village entrance and burned tomorrow.

Oh, wait.

Feng Qing suddenly had an idea.

A shocking idea popped up in her mind.

- Weren't the ancient people afraid of ghosts and gods?

In the current situation, instead of telling the person in front of him that this was just an illusion and that those terrible things did not exist, it would be better to do the opposite.

For example, tell him that those were all evil spirits.

And scare him at the same time, if he dares to tell this to anyone, the devil will come to knock on his door in the middle of the night.

The more Feng Qing thought about it, the more reliable this story seemed to her. She applauded herself in her heart.

Oh, how could she be so smart? She is simply a top-notch little genius.

...

"Do you think I will believe what you just said?"

Feng Qing said with a sneer.

After she finished speaking, as expected, she saw the man in front of her startled.

The little look in his eyes was so frightened that it seemed as if Feng Qing was going to eat him up in the next second.

"You, what do you want to do?" Di Cong was as obedient as he could be now. The rebellious look he had when he first entered the inn had completely disappeared.

Feng Qing sneered and turned on the TV behind him.

The moment she opened it, the zombies started crawling towards her again

, their fangs bared. This scene frightened Di Cong in front of her, and he screamed and started running around again.

Feng Qing silently pressed the pause button again, stopping the zombies.

She repeated this several times, and in the end, Di Cong looked relieved and didn't even struggle.

This is the right way.

"Don't worry, I'm here, these guys won't dare to hurt you." Feng Qing looked at Di Cong's pale face and couldn't help laughing.

It really can't be blamed on her for being immoral. It's just that the kid had a middle school look before, and the current state is really funny.

She was also afraid of scaring Di Cong, and seeing that it worked, she turned off the TV behind her.

"Okay, don't be afraid."

Feng Qing pulled the other person up. At

this moment, Di Cong's mind was completely confused.

He felt the shopkeeper's tone was cold, but his movements pulled him up gently.

This feeling was completely different from what Di Cong had imagined, and it made him feel dizzy.

Just now, Di Cong saw it clearly.

It was obviously a group of scary ghosts, but the moment the shopkeeper raised his hand, they all stopped their movements.

He raised his head carefully. In

front of him was the shopkeeper with a very calm expression.

Behind her were hundreds of bleeding and wailing ghosts.

"Remember, don't tell this to anyone. This is a secret that only you and I know."

Di Cong heard the shopkeeper say this.

He was in purgatory, but he was as calm as if the ghosts around him didn't exist.

Hundreds of ghosts were wailing behind her, but everything was calm in front of her.

There were clearly hundreds of ghosts behind her, but the shopkeeper ignored them.

All the ghosts dared not stir up any trouble in front of her.

She was the one who suppressed the ghosts.

Di Cong finally regained consciousness of his body.

He slowly climbed up.

...

"Where did the shopkeeper go?" Chu Changzui was eating melon seeds downstairs and chatting with other employees.

"I don't know. Why are you looking for him?"

"I just suddenly remembered what happened during the day, and I still feel a little unhappy no matter how I think about it." Chu Changzui was eating a handful of melon seeds, and suddenly he heard some movement upstairs.

He looked up, and then saw the man he had just muttered about followed the shopkeeper downstairs.

The shopkeeper still looked the same as usual, but Di Cong's expression was completely different from before. At least when Chu Changzui saw it, he was a little surprised.

That pale face and lifeless eyes...

"Go make him something to eat." The shopkeeper ordered after he came down.

The other people in the inn looked at each other, and then Li Qi said cautiously, "Shopkeeper, he..."

"Ah, he just accidentally broke into my room, found a little game of mine in there, and then got scared." Feng Qing smiled and looked at Di Cong and asked, "Is that so?"

"...Yes."

Di Cong nodded.

The several waiters in the inn still looked at each other silently.

No, the shopkeeper definitely didn't say it so lightly.

There is a situation.

They didn't dare to ask the shopkeeper in front of him. After the shopkeeper went upstairs, they surrounded Di Cong and stared at him with weird eyes.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Di Cong said.

"What did you see in the shopkeeper's room just now?"

"I didn't see anything." Di Cong said lightly.

"Just like the shopkeeper said, I just saw a small game of the shopkeeper."

"Can a small game scare you like this?" The other people in the inn sneered.

Chu Changzui said to Di Cong while eating melon seeds, "I tell you, nothing can be hidden from us. The things hidden in this inn are much more terrible than you can imagine."

Di Cong was pouring tea for himself, but after hearing what Chu Changzui said, he nodded, "Indeed."

"Huh?" Chu Changzui was stunned.

"There are no more dishes. Here is a bowl of hot water. Have a sip first." Li Qi handed over a bowl.

After Di Cong finished the bowl of water, he slowly stood up and said to everyone, "I'm leaving."

"Hey, why are you leaving now?" Although the inn's staff didn't like Di Cong, they were still stunned when they heard him say that he was leaving now.

The big moon was hanging high outside. It would be better to wait until daytime before going out at this time.

Besides, did the shopkeeper agree to let him leave?

"The shopkeeper agreed to let me go." Di Cong said calmly, "and I have something very important to do."

The words that the shopkeeper said to him upstairs emerged in his mind.

"So, you must cultivate virtue and be a good person."

The shopkeeper smiled as he spoke, "Otherwise, you will really go to the eighteenth level of hell."

Di Cong only knew how to be a bad person in the past twenty years.

But now, for the first time, he wants to try to change.

He murmured to himself in a low voice.

"Be a... good person?"
