Under the cover of night, amid the lights of the port city, a black car was driving steadily on the highway out of the city.
Inside the car, Li Xu raised his shaking hands, as if he wanted to pull the ghost off his shoulder, but he didn't dare to. He could only look at the others: "She, she, she..."
The girl in the floral skirt raised her head, and a rough and hoarse voice sounded faintly in the car: "Good evening."
Li Xu looked at the woman in the floral dress who was so close to him, her dry and wrinkled face, and her wrinkled lips opening and closing. He almost couldn't breathe.
Chi Shen calmly handed him a bottle of water to prevent him from fainting again. When Boss Li saw the ghost for the first time, he fainted within seconds.
Boss Li's attitude towards ghosts is obviously like Ye Gong's liking for dragons. He wants to see them when he can't see them, but when he really sees them, he will be scared to death.
Chi Shen was prepared for Boss Li to faint again, but he didn't expect that Boss Li held on this time. It might be because he was mentally prepared in advance. Although Boss Li's face was pale and his lips were trembling, at least he didn't faint immediately, which was considered an improvement.
So in order to let Boss Li maintain the status quo, Chi Shen handed him a bottle of water. He bet the future of the company on this bottle of water!
Boss Li took two gulps of water and was still a little trembling, but he calmed down a lot. He carefully observed the expression of Floral Skirt, but he soon found that Floral Skirt's face was full of wrinkles and it was really hard to see any expression. He had to force himself to calm down and said tremblingly: "Good evening? You... are also a victim?"
As soon as he opened his mouth, he realized that his voice sounded like a sick cat. He was afraid that the ghost lady would think that he did not respect her. He immediately made a bitter face and wanted to say it again, but the girl in the floral dress replied: "Yes, thank you very much for... taking me in these days."
Her voice was dry and intermittent, and sounded very uncomfortable, as if it was the sound of scraping dry soil.
Li Xu looked at the water in his hand, then at the floral skirt, and handed it over hesitantly: "Do you want... a sip?"
"Auntie doesn't drink water," the little girl beside him looked at Li Xu and smiled sinisterly, "She only drinks blood."
Li Xu lost his grip on the bottle of water and nearly dropped it to the ground. Chi Shen reached out and helped him up, thus saving his bottle of water.
"Thank you, thank you," Li Xu said quickly, and he looked up at Chi Shen again.
Seeing the plea for help in Li Xu's eyes, Chi Shen smiled. Since the boss needed help, he, as an employee, naturally had to help. He said calmly, "Don't scare me. Sit down."
Li Xu looked at Chi Shen with a puzzled look. Is it okay for him to talk to the evil spirit like this? Will the evil spirit really listen to him? Wouldn't this tone anger the evil spirit?
The girl in the floral skirt raised her head and looked at Chi Shen. The little girl also turned her head, staring straight at Chi Shen with her dark pupils.
Li Xuxin was already nervous. Should he help or not? And how should he help? Should he reach out and grab the two ghosts or just kick Chi Shen out of the car - why was he still laughing at this time!
Ten seconds later.
There was silence in the car.
The girl in the floral dress had already sat down obediently between Li Xu and Chi Shen. Both girls sat upright, with their hands on their knees and their eyes looking straight ahead, like students who had just entered school and didn't know how to be naughty.
Xu Jiayuan turned around curiously to look at the two ghosts. Feeling the strong ghost aura emanating from the two ghosts, he frowned again, turned to look at Yuan Yiping, and then felt relieved.
It should be... No, it must be fine!
Li Xu looked at the two ghosts sitting in a row, then looked at Chi Shen, then looked at the two sitting in the front row, and finally his eyes fell on Chi Shen's face. He spoke carefully: "Why are they... so obedient?"
"Of course it's because we are friends," Chi Shen smiled at the two ghosts, "Since we are friends, you will definitely agree to a suggestion, right?"
The girl in the floral dress looked at him angrily. Although it was difficult for her to make any expression, her dry eyes still showed that she dared not speak out. The little girl Huang Lingling nodded happily: "I am the elder sister!"
Chi Shen didn't argue with her about this, but said to Li Xu: "If you want to know anything, you can ask them."
Li Xu looked around the car and fell on Huang Lingling's curious gaze. He gritted his teeth and asked, "Has that statue of the God of Wealth really turned into an evil god?"
Huang Lingling asked in confusion: "What evil god?"
Li Xu said according to the folk legend he had heard: "The statue of the God of Wealth in the carpenter's house was sacrificed with human blood, and it turned from a God of Wealth into an evil god that bewitched people..."
"That's not true," said Yuan Yiping, who was driving. "It's not that easy for an evil god to be born. Even if one is born, it's just a low-level ghost attached to the statue of the God of Wealth. We've already cleaned up the scene, and there's no ghost left."
Li Xu looked at the front row: "No?"
Xu Jiayuan said: "That's just a folk legend. In fact, the evil god will only be born in a year of great disaster, when countless people are in despair. There are no conditions for its birth now."
"Okay... okay." Li Xu suddenly fell silent, but he quickly cheered up and looked at the two ghosts, "I am willing to serve you. Are you willing to provide me with materials for the horror game?"
Xu Jiayuan glanced back, and Chi Shen suddenly laughed: "Just ask, they are willing, and don't need offerings, right?"
The dry eyes in the floral dress moved slightly, and she nodded gently: "You can ask anything you want to know."
Huang Lingling also smiled: "It's my duty to help uncle. Uncle, you can ask me anything!"
Seeing Huang Lingling's expression, Li Xu couldn't help but smile: "Okay, then...what kind of image do you want to have in the game?"
During the warm conversation in the car, their car got off the ring road and drove onto an ordinary cement road. Yuan Yiping drove for an hour and a half before arriving at the village where the crime occurred.
This is a rural area on the outskirts of Gangcheng. Although Gangcheng has developed very rapidly in recent decades, this place still retains its rural appearance. The villagers still farm and raise chickens, working from sunrise to sunset, but their lives are much better than before.
From a distance, the people in the car could see the lights of the village, but Yuan Yiping did not go towards those lights. He turned a corner very early.
Yuan Yiping had been here before, and he drove the car onto a muddy dirt road with familiarity, leaving the lights of the village behind him.
Rather than a road, it was more like a flat area without trees where they could drive their car across.
"Huang Qiang's home is in a very remote area. After the incident, all the villagers moved away and now this place has become a wasteland." Yuan Yiping said as he drove.
Li Xu also nodded: "The last time I came here, it was the same. I wanted to ask the villagers for directions, but I couldn't find anyone. I groped in the woods for a long time before I found the haunted house."
"We're almost there," Huang Lingling suddenly raised her head and looked forward, her eyes almost turning pure black, "We're home."
The floral skirt also began to move, and even the axe inhabited by the headless ghost kept by Yuan Yiping began to tremble.
Among the trees, the black outline of a house slowly emerged in front of them.
Li Xu said, "Huang Qiang's residence is a courtyard. Originally, there were two families living there. Next to it was his workshop and warehouse, as well as another family's pigpen. After the accident, the other family moved out quickly. Now there are only abandoned houses there. The area is quite large, probably several hundred square meters."
Xu Jiayuan opened his tablet computer in front, opened the photo album and pulled out a picture, then handed it to them to look at: "This is a floor plan, it's quite complicated, you guys follow us later, don't get lost."
Chi Shen took a quick glance and found that the structure of the house was not complicated. It was just a few houses surrounding a yard. However, in the dark at night, it could be considered very complicated.
But this didn't affect anything. After all, they were here to look for something. He glanced at the floor plan and then looked at Huang Lingling: "Where is it?"
Huang Lingling looked up at the floor plan and shook her head: "I don't understand it, but I know where Lai Touzi has buried his head. I'll know when I get there."
"thirsty……"
The girl in the floral dress suddenly shouted in a hoarse voice.
"I'm so thirsty! Blood! The smell of blood! I'm so thirsty!"
Yuan Yiping stopped the car and looked at the deserted house in front of him with a solemn expression.
The author has something to say:
Happy New Year!
