Chapter 268: Ghost
Chen Wan smiled faintly: "He only repented when he was about to die. What have you done before? Fortunately, he has saved a lot of money through this method over the years. When he pays back all the money, he will report to hell."
People always have to pay the price for their sins.
Li Hanting asked curiously, "Master Shen, have you seen hell? Is there really an eighteen-level hell as rumored?"
Shen Wan smiled and said, "If I say I have seen it, would you believe me?"
"Believe!" Li Hanting's deep eyes were full of determination.
He used to be an atheist and didn't believe in ghosts, let alone hell.
Ever since he met Shen Wan, his worldview has been refreshed again and again.
From the moment he saw the ghost, he believed every word she said unconditionally.
"The Eighteen Levels of Hell do exist, and there is also a Nineteenth Level of Hell, which is the world of the living." Chen Wanfeng said calmly, "So, don't do bad and immoral things in your life. You may be able to escape the law during your lifetime, but you cannot escape the punishment of the underworld after you die."
Li Hanting was silent for a moment, then suddenly asked, "What if he had killed someone?"
"Killing someone and paying for their life is like paying back a debt. It is only natural."
He pursed his lips slightly, and said in a heavy tone: "What if the person he killed deserved to die? What if the other party had committed a heinous crime?"
Chen Wan took a deep breath and said, "No matter what, killing someone is creating karma. No matter whether the other person deserves to die or not, if you kill him, you will leave a cause. If there is a cause, there will be a result. You will always have to pay the price one day."
Li Hanting suddenly smiled, his handsome face full of fearlessness.
"I am not afraid of the cost. If that day ever comes, I will not regret it."
Although Shen Wan was confused, it was someone else's privacy after all, and she didn't want to have too much involvement with him in this life.
She remained silent about this and stopped asking further questions.
The hotel staff were quickly evacuated.
Only Shen Wan, Li Hanting and the hotel manager who came to report were left in the hall.
The hotel manager handed the keys and master cards for all parts of the hotel to Shen Wan.
"Master, this is the hotel's distribution map, please help me."
"Boss Li, I have already arranged a hotel for you to stay in. Shall we set off now?"
Li Hanting shook his head: "I'm not leaving."
The hotel manager was shocked: "Mr. Li, you have to leave! There really is a ghost in the hotel. When I went to the restaurant just now, I saw a child under the table. I thought it was a guest's child, but when I looked over, it turned out to be a ghost! I was really scared."
Only when you see it with your own eyes can you know that the hotel is really haunted, and there are many ghosts.
Li Hanting said seriously, "I want to see who is causing trouble in the hotel. You should go first and come back after the matter is resolved."
The hotel manager looked at Shen Wan, wanting her to help persuade Mr. Li to leave.
Shen Wan looked at Li Hanting's unwavering look and knew that he was very concerned about this matter, so he said, "Don't worry, I won't let anything happen to my employer."
Li Hanting has an ancient jade on his body to protect him. Inside the jade is a protective spell that she made with her own blood. There are also protective spiritual patterns engraved on the jade.
With double protection, even a powerful ghost cannot harm him.
She wasn't worried that anything would happen to him.
When the hotel manager heard her say this, he had no choice but to nod and leave.
Everyone left and the hotel fell into an eerie silence.
Shen Wan glanced at the sky above the hotel. It seemed that there were dark clouds covering the sky, enveloping the entire hotel in darkness.
"The evil spirit has become even stronger. My preliminary estimate is that there are probably more than a thousand ghosts hiding in the hotel."
Shen Wan asked him, "Is Mr. Li afraid?"
Li Hanting shook his head: "Don't be afraid. They were flesh and blood when they were alive. There's nothing to be afraid of."
My sister is also a ghost, so there’s really nothing to be afraid of.
"I can help you with what we are going to do next."
Li Hanting took the initiative.
He didn't want to be a burden, so he tried his best to help her with as many things as possible.
Chen Wan really had something for him to do.
She made a simple mark on the hotel map and took out a stack of talisman papers from her bag and gave them to him.
"I'm going to look for the ghost-luring formation later."
"Are these ghosts attracted by the ghost-attracting formation?"
"Well, I have to find them. Your task is to stick these ghost-suppressing talismans in the places I marked, and also at the front door, so as to prevent other wandering ghosts from being attracted in."
Shen Wan paused and solemnly reminded: "There is one more very important thing."
"Please go ahead."
"There is a ghost of the Red Level hiding in the hotel. Although you are wearing the ancient jade to ward off evil spirits, it will create an illusion. No matter who you see or what sound you hear, do not respond to it to avoid being drawn into the illusion and unable to extricate yourself."
Li Hanting nodded.
After Chen Wan finished his instructions, he went to find the ghost-luring formation.
Li Hanting took a stack of talisman papers and pasted them at the entrance of the hotel one by one according to the places marked by Chen Wan.
He vaguely felt that there seemed to be someone behind him, and there were many pairs of eyes staring at him in the dark.
The intensity of the feeling was impossible to ignore.
Li Hanting turned a deaf ear to it, keeping Shen Wan's instructions in mind, not daring to be distracted at all.
After he finished pasting the first floor, he went upstairs.
"Xiao Ting."
Suddenly, a familiar voice came from behind.
Li Hanting's body suddenly stiffened.
This familiar voice belonged to his father!
His heart tightened, and he pretended not to hear and continued to stick the talismans.
"Xiao Ting."
The sound came again, getting closer.
Li Hanting frowned.
His father had been dead for six years, and he knew very well that it was a ghost that was causing trouble.
Just like what Chen Wan said, they would transform into what he desired deep in his heart in order to confuse his mind.
He needs to focus.
Li Hanting clenched the talisman paper tightly.
"Xiao Ting, why are you ignoring Dad?"
The voice sounded again.
Li Hanting clearly sensed that the thing had come behind him.
He took the talisman paper and turned around suddenly to stick it on.
The talisman paper was pasted on an empty space.
But he saw a figure standing three meters away.
That look was actually his father Li Haotian.
The 'father' looked at him lovingly, his eyes full of concern.
His expression and behavior were exactly the same as the father in my memory.
Li Hanting's heart was instantly stirred and he almost blurted out a response.
But in a flash, he suddenly remembered Shen Wan's instructions.
Whatever you see or hear, don't respond...
Li Hanting gritted his teeth, forced back the words, turned his head and pretended he hadn't seen or heard anything, and continued to stick the talismans.
His hands began to tremble slightly uncontrollably.
When his parents died unexpectedly overseas, he traveled thousands of miles to handle the funeral, but he couldn't even see his parents for the last time.
All he saw was a corpse rotted into a pile of pulp...
