Chapter 221 Going back to sleep
Hold up two fingers.
Old Mitou became interested. "I've been in Qinghai City for so many years, how come I haven't heard of this? I don't think it's been reported in the news?"
Gu Yu shook his head: "I don't know, anyway, I heard it from the clerk."
"And what happened next?"
Ma Zhang wiped away his tears and asked about the subsequent developments.
"Later, many people saw ghosts in the corridor on the 14th floor, and there was more than one. People living upstairs and downstairs were terrified and started selling their houses, giving up their leases and moving out. Before long, the three floors above and below were almost empty."
People are judged individually.
When someone starts to lead the evacuation, the rest will follow suit.
One person, two people, three people, and finally a group of people!
"Originally, the disaster didn't extend beyond the third floor. But after the residents of the three floors above and below were evacuated, cries began to be heard from inside the building. The elevator stopped for no apparent reason, and people were running around in the stairwells. This situation became very common. Gradually, all the residents of Central Building moved out for their own protection. After almost three months of sporadic activities, Central Building became a veritable haunted building."
Speaking of this, a hint of panic appeared in Gu Yu's eyes.
"Although I haven't seen it, sometimes when I pass by there after get off work at night, I can hear people talking inside the building..."
“Eh~”
Ma Zhang was frightened by Gu Yu's story. After making a sound of fear, he crawled his feet and body back into the quilt.
He had heard people say before that if one was afraid of being surrounded by dirt in the middle of the night, one should get under the quilt, as it was sealed.
Not only can ghosts not get in, the people sleeping inside can’t even get up if they want to!
“How scary.”
Chen Xiaodao had jumped onto Lao Mi Tou's bed at some point, holding onto Lao Mi Tou's arm and trembling as he spoke.
With his eyes narrowed, Old Mitou put his palm against his head and pulled his arm out of his arms with force.
"Mr. Ma, I can understand why you're afraid. You're a Taoist priest who specializes in dealing with these things. What are you afraid of?"
“This has nothing to do with my profession!”
Being pushed away by Old Mitou, he grabbed the quilt at the foot of the bed and moved aside proudly: "Taoists are also human beings! They will be scared even if they hear ghost stories."
"Yes, yes, yes."
Nodding perfunctorily, Lao Mi lay sideways on his bed.
Gu Yu was also frightened by what he was saying to himself, so he took off his shoes and climbed onto the bed quickly.
"Anyway, that's what I heard. I really don't know the details of what happened."
Feng Zhibai was lying on the sofa and almost fell asleep listening to Gu Yu telling stories.
Her eyes were half open, and her voice was tired. "It's not like the people involved didn't experience what happened back then, so no one can say for sure what happened. This is already the third version I've heard. It's hard to say who's telling the truth and who's lying. And I've already been to the area near the Central Building, and it's definitely different from other haunted buildings. There's no evil spirits or resentment, and no formations or imprisonment. To find out what's going on inside, we need to find a sunny day... to check..."
The sound became quieter, the sleepiness grew stronger, and the eyelids grew heavier.
"Why don't you say anything?"
Halfway through the listening, the sound suddenly stopped, and Chen Xiaodao and the others leaned over to look in Feng Zhibai's direction.
Under the dim light, the delicate and petite person was already snoring softly.
"Asleep."
Old Mitou sat on the bed and lowered his voice.
None of them spoke anymore. They gestured to each other, said good night, and went to bed.
Feng Zhibai was in a daze, and when he woke up it was already past ten o'clock the next morning.
Chen Xiaodao and Gu Yu were still sleeping, but Lao Mitou had already gotten up and was checking his phone.
The sunlight coming in from outside was very dazzling. She raised her hand to block it and hummed.
Hearing the voice, he put down his phone, and looked at her from the bed with his neck tilted, his voice very soft.
"woke up?"
The sofa is not as comfortable as the bed, and her back and waist ached after sleeping on it.
Rubbing her sore arms and neck, she said in a hoarse voice, "Well, the old man is gone?"
"Mr. Ma left early this morning. Liu Ping came to see him personally. I don't know what they talked about, but he left with a heavy heart."
"If my guess is correct, Liu Ping's company should be in a frozen period."
"Freeze? Doesn't that mean bankruptcy?"
He cried out in surprise and sat up, grabbing the bed board.
Ma Zhang and Liu Ping's company had previously made a lot of money from Dai Shi's black magic.
Moreover, the black magic on the directors who cooperated with Liu Ping’s company has not been removed yet!
It's really surprising that it has entered bankruptcy so quickly in such a short period of time.
Rubbing his eyes, Feng Zhibai stretched himself lazily and yawned. "Black magic can backfire. If you don't maintain it for a long time, its effectiveness will decrease, and you'll become less alert. Besides, Dai Shi didn't use much black magic powder on those directors back then. Now he's busy with other things and doesn't have time to care about those directors, so it's normal for the magic to lose its effectiveness."
Same as equipment maintenance.
If the equipment is maintained regularly, its life span will also be extended.
Without maintenance, the service life of the equipment will be greatly reduced.
"Then we don't need to remove the surrender?"
He yawned again. "Not necessarily. Dai Shi is an experienced sorcerer after all. If his sorcery is not removed, there will definitely be remnants. If it comes back in the future, these remnants will become the trigger. So, in my opinion, it is better to remove the sorcery."
“Snap—”
The crisp sound of the quilt being hit was heard.
Chen Xiaodao said cowardly: "It's better to do it today than to wait for a day. Otherwise, why not find a suitable time today to remove the black magic."
Gu Yu also woke up, rubbed his eyes and lay on the bed, in the process of restarting his computer.
After getting up and stretching his body, Feng Zhibai felt much more refreshed: "Then I'll leave this matter to you. I'm going back to sleep."
Chen Xiaodao has a strong constitution and only suffered some minor injuries yesterday. He will be fine after a good night's sleep.
Gu Yu had the natal rope that Feng Zhibai had given him before, which stabilized his three souls and seven spirits. He also drank the talisman water and had vomited out all the dirty things he needed to vomit out.
As for Lao Mi Tou, his broken leg will need some time to recover.
But the overall condition of the three is currently good.
In other words, it’s better not to stay in this hospital!
"Going back to sleep? Didn't you just wake up?"
Hearing that she was going back to sleep, Chen Xiaodao almost fell off the bed.
“Do you know what the three most beautiful things in the world are?”
Touching his cheek, Feng Zhibai raised his eyebrows and looked at Chen Xiaodao and the other two.
"Sleep, eat, and make money. I can't do the last two, but what about sleep?"
Pulling her sleeve, she snorted proudly and walked out of the ward with her head held high.
"I'm busy with my work, so don't contact me if you have nothing to do, and don't contact me if you have something to do."
He twisted his waist and left the hospital without looking back.
