"Do you feel a little cold?"
Outside the Bai family's old house, several young people squatted on the side of the road opposite the house, looking at the gate of the house from afar.
"It's 12 o'clock, why hasn't he come back yet?"
They are the Bai family's disciples from other families. As a large family, the people who usually work for the Bai family are not only their own descendants, but they also accept some disciples from other families to do miscellaneous tasks. Mr. He was once a disciple from another family, and later he was highly valued by the Bai family and had a certain say in the Bai family.
"Could he have died outside?"
Today, the "chore" of these non-Chinese disciples is to capture Chi Shen back.
During the day, Bai Ximing was sure that he was haunted by the evil spirit because of Chi Shen's phone call last night, so he immediately called for people to capture Chi Shen and bring him back for questioning. However, they didn't find Chi Shen at all.
As a person who was completely ignored and no one took him seriously except Bai Ran, Chi Shen was as transparent as a cloak in the eyes of the Bai family. When they heard about him entering the Bai family's old house, everyone was laughing at the joke and waiting for him to die in the old house. No one paid attention to where he was and what he did every day.
When they went out, there was naturally no one to monitor them, so when they arrived, they found that the person was missing and they couldn't find him. When the sun set, the Bai family left, leaving only a few disciples from other families waiting here.
"Maybe he died in some corner and hasn't been dug out yet. Once he starts to stink, we'll find him."
After saying that, several people laughed. They had also heard about the Bai family being harassed by ghost phone calls, and they even discussed privately that the person who answered Bai Ximing's call that night was not the living Chi Shen, but Chi Shen's ghost. After all, at that time, Chi Shen said that ghosts were his friends. If he was also a ghost, then it made perfect sense to say that ghosts were his friends.
"My head... Have you seen my head?" A vague voice came from the old house. They were a little far away and couldn't hear it clearly, but they still shuddered.
"What is this old house used for?" one person asked, "Why are there so many ghosts imprisoned in it?"
"I heard that it was to suppress an old ghost of the Bai family and prevent her from coming out."
"Why do I feel like I'm raising—"
Everyone else looked over, and the man immediately fell silent, swallowing the words that were about to come out of his mouth.
Raising ghosts is a big taboo in this field.
Tick. Tick.
The sound of water dripping.
"Do you smell a foul odor?"
A man leaning against a tree touched his face. There were water stains on his hands, and the water stains smelled bad, like the smell of something rotten.
Where does the water come from?
He raised his head.
He was a deformed man. His lower body was normal. He was barefoot and wore ordinary men's pajamas. However, his upper body was bloated as if he had an abscess and his shape was unrecognizable. And on top of the swollen tumor was a huge mouth.
This look is a bit like the laughing emoticon in the Baozou comics, but if this look really appeared in reality, it would undoubtedly be a monster.
The monster's limbs were wrapped around the tree trunk in a strange arc, and it was hanging upside down on the tree. In the pile of rotten flesh were a pair of human eyes with a hungry look. Saliva dripped from its huge mouth and dripped onto the forehead of the person looking up.
"ah!!!"
The person next to the tree immediately let out a roar, staggered out of the green belt, and rushed into the crowd in two steps.
"What are you shouting?"
Someone attacked him immediately.
"Ghost!" The man pointed at the tree and wanted to show them, but suddenly found that the place had become empty and there was nothing there.
"Don't be so startled. You're frightened to death." The leader raised his hand and patted him on the head.
"I really saw..."
A huge mouth opened behind the leader and bit down on his head!
Darkness enveloped him, and the stench of decay surrounded him. The leader wanted to react, but it was too late. A huge fear enveloped him. He was going to be swallowed by the monster and chewed into pieces.
“Click.”
There was a sound of something breaking, and the monster raised its head. A bloody wooden substitute was held in its mouth. Its mouth went straight through the leader but did not hurt him at all.
The monster seemed a little confused. After a while, it spit out the wooden man and looked at the other people.
"Run!" The leader had no time to calm his violently beating heart, and suddenly pushed the stunned person next to him, "Run!"
Several people crawled onto the van and quickly drove away, but the monster did not chase them. He lowered his head, and the man in the rotten flesh looked at the white words on the wooden substitute, and two lines of blood and tears slowly flowed out.
After a long time, he moved again, crushed the wooden man with one foot, and went to the gate of the old house.
——
14th floor of Tengfei Building, Ledao Culture Company.
Yuan Yiping arrived very quickly, and he was not the only one there.
Perhaps feeling threatened, the ghost hiding under the front desk began to become restless. The moment Yuan Yiping arrived on the 14th floor, black ghost energy spread out and covered the entire door.
Chi Shen sat at his workstation, watching calmly through the glass. He wanted to see the strength of this department he had never known before. And the ghost at the front desk was a level 2 soldier who was slightly better than the small soldiers in the death game. It would be perfect to use him to test the situation.
The black color quickly enveloped the glass and blocked Chi Shen's sight. However, two minutes later, a ray of golden light cut through the black air and Yuan Yiping stood in it, with the ancient sword in his hand trembling slightly. One of his colleagues was leaning against the wall with a pale face, seemingly having suffered serious injuries.
Chi Shen's gaze fell on the ancient sword for a moment, then he looked at Yuan Yiping.
Yuan Yiping didn't look at him. He calmly treated his colleagues and arranged for people to check for the ghosts that still existed in Ledao Culture.
They have been monitoring the 14th floor of Tengfei Building for two days. During this period, they disguised themselves as cleaning ladies and uncles to come in and find out what was going on. They knew that there were many ghosts living here, in the toilet, in the ceiling, and even in various strange corners.
Because there are too many ghosts, they are holding an emergency meeting to study countermeasures. If they act rashly, they will likely be attacked by the ghosts. Not only will they fail to exorcise the ghosts, they may even die.
Colleagues immediately executed the plan and embraced the Ledao culture.
"The target person is alive." A voice came from Yuan Yiping's headphones.
"Toilet, clean."
"The ceiling is clean."
"The flower pot..." The colleague's voice was a little strange, "It's clean too."
All the colleagues came back with strange looks on their faces and joined Yuan Yiping at the front desk. One of them said, "During the investigation, the ghost in the toilet was the most dangerous, but he disappeared. Judging from the resentment left, it must have been exorcised no more than a day ago."
The detection methods for ghosts are still in their infancy, and they cannot obtain very accurate data.
Another colleague also said: "This is the case in all the places we investigated."
Yuan Yiping frowned when he heard this.
He suddenly remembered the boy in shrouds nailed to the pillar in the Bai family's old house. These things happened around Chi Shen. Could someone be helping him?
Yuan Yiping and his colleagues discussed in a low voice for a while, but no conclusion was reached. Suddenly, one of his colleagues said, "Did someone from the Bai family come here? After all, their real young master..."
Another colleague signaled him to be quiet, and Yuan Yiping shook his head and walked towards Chi Shen.
Chi Shen was still sitting at his workstation. He looked very tired and pale. Yuan Yiping observed him for a moment and found that although he looked pale, it was not because of fear, but more like he was sleepy. He was very calm. He couldn't help but ask, "Aren't you afraid?"
"I'm not afraid," Chi Shen said righteously under Yuan Yiping's inquiring gaze, "I believe the police comrades can definitely protect me!"
Yuan Yiping was stunned for a moment, obviously not expecting this answer, but he soon laughed and said, "You should pay more attention to safety in the future."
Chi Shen nodded: "I understand."
After chatting with Chi Shen for a while, Yuan Yiping looked at the time and offered to take him home.
Chi Shen did not refuse. After all, an ordinary person who had just seen a ghost should not refuse the police's protection, so he got into Yuan Yiping's car.
"Are you feeling unwell?" Yuan Yiping chatted with Chi Shen while driving. After encountering a ghost, there would usually be some physical discomfort, so Yuan Yiping also asked.
Chi Shen shook his head, then nodded: "Overtime is really an evil invention."
It is almost two o'clock in the morning and he is so sleepy. Why did he take the initiative to work overtime? He even recalled why he resolutely resigned from his job and came to Hong Kong City to find his biological parents. It was also because of the evil overtime!
At that time, he was tortured by overtime work and was in a trance. He could even fall asleep while standing on the crowded subway. Every day he worried that he would die suddenly at work and his inheritance would be inherited by his miserable parents.
So when he heard that he was a child from a wealthy family, he immediately resigned and ran away.
He thought his family was so rich that he wouldn't have to work overtime anymore!
