The game on Chi Shen's phone was in the exciting chase phase. He took the time out of his busy schedule to look up at the bride in her wedding dress and nodded: "Thank you, sister. Put it on the table first."
The female ghost in red became even more rigid, and it looked like she was about to crack. She turned her head blankly to look at the bride in her wedding dress, then looked at Chi Shen who was still stuck in the phone. A prayerful expression suddenly appeared on her pale and strange face, making the whole ghost face suddenly become sacred.
The bride in her wedding dress, with her head covered with a red veil, moved, as if she was "taking a look" at the table that Chi Shen was talking about. More bright red blood instantly seeped out from the veil and slowly dripped under the dim light of the red candle.
The pale fingers with golden gloves slowly approached the depth of the pool.
The red-clothed female ghost immediately covered her eyes with her withered fingers, but could not help but peek through the gaps between her fingers.
The bride's hand stopped one foot away from the pool and she placed the sachet with a strange smell on the table. Then a breeze blew and the bride appeared on a chair opposite the pool. Rows of red candles surrounded the two of them and lit up one by one.
A handsome young man was sitting at one end of the table holding a cell phone, while a bride in a red wedding dress, holding a spirit tablet and with blood dripping from her veil was sitting at the other end of the table. The only light in the room was from the burning red candles.
The room fell into an eerie silence. The bride in the wedding dress did not speak, and Chi Shen did not speak either. The two of them seemed surprisingly harmonious. The female ghost in red, with only a head and one hand, had given up struggling and looked at them numbly.
Why can a human being and a fierce ghost have such a good relationship?
After about ten minutes, Chi Shen finally got rid of the monsters in the game and found the save point to save the game. Then he put down his phone, looked up at the bride in the wedding dress, and said sincerely: "Thank you, sister."
There were faint dark circles under his eyes, and he looked a little sleepy. He didn't sleep well last night, so he was indeed sleepy now. However, he drank a cup of milk tea in the afternoon, and now he felt very energetic. The mental excitement and fatigue pulled at each other, making him feel even more tired.
A vague voice came from under the bride's veil: "I was only seventeen when I died, younger than you are now."
Red-clothed female ghost: “?”
Chi Shen followed suit and said, "Sister, Sister Bai."
The bride in the wedding dress, Bai Wan, continued to let out tiny laughter from under her veil. She seemed very happy: "Cut the hair of a hundred-year-old corpse, mix it with locust wood and burn it. The smell can attract ghosts to move. The person who puts this in, I hope you will be eaten by hundreds of ghosts."
Chi Shen also learned this from Lu Xiangyang. He even knew who asked Lu Xiangyang and He Chao to do this. However, the house was made too messy by the red-clothed female ghost, and he was too lazy to look for the sachet that was in some corner.
Chi Shen rested his chin on one hand, looking at the sachet, and stretched out his other hand: "If you feel uncomfortable, I will deal with it."
"Don't you want revenge?" Bai Wan asked.
Chi Shen lowered his eyes to look at the word "Bai" on the sachet, yawned, and then looked at the game screen on his phone: "Compared to such a trivial matter as someone trying to kill me, it is more important to find a job."
Things have to be solved one by one, and solving the problem of eating is the most important thing! After all, it is related to whether he can have a south-facing balcony to bask in the sun in the future!
Red-clothed female ghost: “?”
"You are such a kind-hearted person," Bai Wan sighed after hearing this, not knowing what she was thinking of, "You freed me from that narrow place, allowing me to walk around here, so I will do you a favor."
"Thank you, sister." Chi Shen didn't ask any questions. He first smiled in gratitude, picked up his phone again, and started to load the file. Then he suddenly thought of something and added seriously, "Don't kill anyone. It will be very troublesome."
A soft laugh came from under the veil dripping with blood: "I know you are a kind person."
The sachet began to burn in Bai Wan's hand. Strangely, no ashes were left. The smoke and dust floated out of the old house, and Bai Wan also disappeared in the room.
Chi Shen rubbed his nose bridge and continued looking at his phone. This game looked simple, but it was quite difficult to play. If one was not careful, he would die. He had to cheer up and work hard to pass it for tomorrow's interview!
The female ghost in red silently moved closer to Chi Shen. For some reason, she seemed to feel safe next to this person, even though her body was chopped off by this person.

No matter how you look at it, today is a very unlucky day.
Bai Ran checked the ghost-exorcising talisman on the door, lit a piece of calming incense, and lay down on the bed.
But it doesn’t matter. The person who brought him bad luck will die soon. Thinking of this, he couldn’t help laughing before falling asleep.
Not long after he fell asleep, he had a dream.
He seemed to be back in the old house of the Bai family. Red candles were flickering all around, creating a joyous scene. However, the red color was hidden in the darkness, making it seem very depressing.
A woman in a red wedding dress was combing her hair with her back to him.
The black silk is like a waterfall, and the hand holding the wooden comb is as white as green onion and jade, which is very beautiful.
Bai Ran immediately took a step back and turned around to run. He knew who it was! This was the evil ghost trapped in the Bai family's old house!
He went out of the door, but missed a step and found himself in another bridal chamber. This time, the woman was wearing a red veil and sitting quietly by the bed, as if she was waiting for her lover to arrive.
After just one look, he immediately turned around. This time, it was another bridal chamber. The bride in her wedding dress was sitting on the edge of the bed with a dagger stuck in her chest. Seeing him come in, the bride raised her hand and pulled out the dagger. Blood gushed out in an instant, but the bride seemed not to feel the pain. She lifted up her red veil with the dagger, revealing her bright red lips, which were sneering.
When he looked back again, the dagger was stuck in his chest.
Feeling the chill coming from his chest, Bai Ran struggled to wake up, but he watched helplessly as the bride in the wedding dress slowly walked in front of him step by step -
Bai Ran suddenly woke up, gasping for breath.
That evil ghost is trapped in the Bai family's old house and there is no way he can come out!
Because he wanted that evil ghost to kill Chi Shen, he recalled the horror of the past and had a nightmare?
How come he became as useless as Lu Xiangyang and even had nightmares?
Bai Ran's heart was still beating fast, but he stroked his chest and laughed silently. Even he was so afraid of that evil ghost. Chi Shen, who had no ability to fight back, would probably be dead before tomorrow!
But why are my hands wet?
Bai Ran raised his hand to turn on the bedroom light, and suddenly he was stunned.
He didn't know when a two-inch gash appeared on his chest, his pajamas were soaked in blood, and there were drops of red wax dripping beside his bed.
Climbing out of bed, Bai Ran suddenly opened the bedroom door and found that all the ghost-exorcising talismans pasted on it had been burned to ashes.
After a second of silence, Bai Ran immediately put on his coat and took his phone and ran out of the house - that old ghost is out! He can't die!
——
While Bai Ran was running for his life, Chi Shen finished washing up and lay down safely on the bed.
I haven't had milk tea for a long time and I forgot that I couldn't sleep after drinking milk tea. Chi Shen reflected on it and decided that he would never drink milk tea after noon next time.
He has already finished the game. It is a horror game, but it has the core of redemption. Chi Shen feels that the producer does have ideas, which are interesting and have a certain depth. He has begun to wonder what kind of company Ledao Culture is.
The next day, it was not the alarm clock that woke Chi Shen up, but the cold air.
Ji Xingchen ordered the female ghost in red to lift Chi Shen's quilt. Chi Shen climbed up from the bed with a depressed look on his face and looked at the two ghosts.
Ji Xingchen looked as if it was none of his business, while the female ghost in red was happily throwing the quilt around for fun.
"It's you." Chi Shen looked at Ji Xingchen. Don't think that he doesn't know what happened just because he fell asleep.
Ji Xingchen looked away and said in a very formal tone: "The interview is at ten o'clock, and it will take an hour. In order to leave a good impression on the interviewer, it is best to arrive early. It's eight o'clock now, and it's time to get up."
Chi Shen said expressionlessly: "Oh."
After staying in the death game for a long time, he no longer had the habit of staying in bed, but before entering the death game, he didn't have this habit either.
Chi Shen got up from the bed, tidied himself up, and walked out of the old house in a dignified manner.
While riding the bus, Chi Shen took out his cell phone and opened yesterday's supernatural forum.
Many people on the forum responded to him.
Some people said that the police don't care about ghosts and mocked him, while others said that the owner of the floor should call the police, as the footsteps might be a thief coming in.
And at the end of the post, there was another reply saying “stay calm and don’t get angry”:
【Thank you, Deep and Unfathomable! I couldn't stand it last night, so I called the police, and they really came to deal with it! They said it was a normal phenomenon of the house expanding and contracting due to heat and cold, and I didn't remember it clearly, but the footsteps really disappeared when they left! I can sleep well now! I asked for leave and will sleep at home for a day tomorrow, I am so happy! 】
After the host did this, those who said that the police didn't care about the ghosts all disappeared, and some people ridiculed those people.
"Unrecognizable" was the ID name registered by Chi Shen. He did not read the fight and was too lazy to reply. He looked at other floors and saw nothing valuable.
The bus was shaking, Chi Shen yawned and refreshed the post.
This time he refreshed a new reply:
[I am an employee on the 14th floor. I resigned the day before yesterday. I don’t know the specific circumstances, but I think it has a lot to do with my former boss. The game he was going to make was based on real events. They all said that those dead people came to us.
I have experienced what you said calmly, and I often see phantoms when I work overtime in the middle of the night, and the person I see in the mirror when I go to the toilet is not me.
The psychologist said that I was under too much pressure and had hallucinations, and suggested that I change my work environment. I resigned, and now I am living a good life. I eat well, drink well, and sleep well every day. Those phantoms have never appeared again, and I dare to look in the mirror at night. I have never felt that life has been so beautiful. I decided to realize my dream when I was young and travel around the world!
Now that game company is still hiring, they are always short of people, I advise everyone: Don’t apply for the job! Don’t apply for the job! Don’t apply for the job! ! ! ! ]
The author has something to say:
Chi Shen: Doesn’t that mean they really need me as an employee?
