I could only resist the noise above my head, covered my head with a pillow, tossed and turned on the bed, unable to fall asleep for a long time.

And the damn thud was still going on.

I don't know how long it took, A-Lian finally fell asleep in a daze...

Also on the 14th floor, it is located in room 1414 on the corridor in the other direction.

An old man with a kind face and gray hair was wearing a slightly fancy old man's shirt, with his arms open, letting Aunt Mei busy in front of him and behind him.

He is Aunt Mei's wife, and the neighbors like to call him 'Uncle Dong'.

Uncle Dong and Aunt Mei have been married for more than 30 years and are an extremely loving old couple.

"Amei, isn't the color of this dress too conspicuous?"

Uncle Dong twisted his body a little awkwardly.

Aunt Mei, who was checking whether the clothes fit, stopped her work and gave him a blank look.

"It's better to have a brighter color, so that people look energetic. Why, old man, do you dislike my craftsmanship?"

Aunt Mei was a seamstress when she was young, and she was very good at crafting. She usually sewed and repaired for free for the neighbors in the neighborhood, and she was deeply loved by the neighbors.

Most of Uncle Dong's clothes were made by Aunt Mei herself.

Seeing that his wife was unhappy, Uncle Dong immediately took her hand and said affectionately:

"No, seeing you sew so late every day, I feel sorry for you~"

Aunt Mei immediately slapped him, pretending to be shy.

"Old and unscrupulous ~ don't be ashamed!"

The old couple were flirting and cursing like no one else, but fortunately this was at their home, otherwise how many dogs would have been slaughtered and chopped into dog meat.

After trying on the clothes, Aunt Mei took the clothes back to her room and continued to make small changes, while Uncle Dong went out with the garbage from the house and walked towards the stairwell.

When he came to the stairwell, Uncle Dong threw a bag of garbage into the trash can.

Just as he was about to turn around and go home, the lights in the stairwell suddenly flickered, and then from the corner of Uncle Dong's eyes, he saw a red shadow flashing past under the stairs.

"Who's there?"

Uncle Dong asked subconsciously.

There was silence in the stairwell, only the sound of the electric lights beeping due to poor contact!Voice.

Uncle Dong frowned, remembering his wife's warning, he turned and walked home.

As soon as he took half a step, he heard a faint whimper coming from the bottom of the stairs.

Uncle Dong stopped in his tracks.

Both he and Aunt Mei are very helpful, so this loving old couple has always had a very good reputation in the neighborhood.

He probed to look downstairs, and vaguely saw the corner of the stairs on the lower floor. There seemed to be a petite person in red clothes squatting there, like a child.

Whose child doesn't sleep at night, maybe he was kicked out by the family...

Uncle Dong's heart suddenly moved with compassion.

He walked down a few steps, trying to get a better look.

Uncle Dong poked his head out again and looked down, and soon found that a little girl in a red dress was squatting on the ground, seeming to be crying softly.

Uncle Dong hurriedly asked loudly:

"Hey! Whose child are you from? It's so late, why don't you go home?"

The little girl stopped crying, and slowly raised her head, revealing a face that was not humanoid.

The pale skin like a dead man was covered with criss-cross bloodstains, his eyes were full of blood and tears, the eyes had no whites, they were pitch black, and his teeth were sharp.

Uncle Dong suddenly took a deep breath.

Just as he was about to turn around and run away, a pair of terrifying hands stretched out from behind and rested on Uncle Dong's shoulders.

The skin of these hands is blue-purple, covered with old age folds, and the pointed and long nails are smeared with scarlet nail polish.

Uncle Dong suddenly felt a huge force coming from behind, pushing him forward violently, and his whole body suddenly fell forward.

After a loud noise, Uncle Dong, whose face was covered in blood and whose neck was broken, fell to the corner of the stairs below.

Just before his consciousness disappeared, he vaguely saw a woman with disheveled hair and a red dress as bright as blood standing there, looking down at him.

Soon, Uncle Dong's vision darkened...

Xu Ming didn't know that many things happened in the 'Demon Cave' during the time he was patrolling the city.

The thing conceived in the darkness has already begun to move around.

Xu Ming wandered around the city wall all night.

The completion rate of eliminating the group of 'Young and Dangerous Boys' increased by 5%, and with the removal of those lonely ghosts, the completion rate increased to 11% in one night.

But Xu Ming was not satisfied with this.

Not counting tonight, there are only 3 nights left before the Ghost Festival.

Assuming that he can only get 11% completion every night, then it will only be 44% on the day of the Ghost Festival.

This level of completion is believed to be not too high in the final settlement score.

In a certain dark space in the 'Magic Nest'.

In the center is a huge altar, and the ground can be vaguely seen engraved with an array based on the Eight Diagrams.

It's just that the line of the array is blood red, exuding a bloody smell.

The space around the altar was pitch black, but some pale human bodies could be faintly seen hanging upside down in midair.

Tick ​​tock!

Tick ​​tock!

Drops of blood slipped from the human body and flowed into the water tank dug below, and the water tank extended to the array around the altar.

In the center of the array is a Yin Yang Tai Chi pattern.

Above the array are seven Kongming lanterns hanging in the shape of Big Dipper.

suddenly!

One of the lanterns went out...

A-Lian slept until nine o'clock in the morning before waking up dizzy.

While washing, A-Lian saw a haggard woman with dark circles around her eyes appearing in the mirror.

Alian sighed and began to brush her teeth mechanically.

When she was about to finish brushing, A-Lian lowered her head to spit out the foam in her mouth, took another sip of water, put it in her mouth, and rinsed it off.

When she raised her head, the mirror reflected a pale woman!

There was a long and narrow bloodstain running across the woman's neck, and her eyes were full of hatred, staring at A-Lian outside the mirror.

A-Lian was startled, and took a big step back in fright, almost slipped and fell to the ground, her elbow accidentally touched the mouthwash cup by the sink.

Boom!clang!

The mouthwash cup filled with water fell to the ground with a loud noise.

Alian subconsciously looked down.

When she looked up again, it was her own face in the mirror again.

It's just that Alian didn't dare to stay in the bathroom anymore.

She spit out the water in her mouth in a hurry, wiped her face with a towel casually, and left the bathroom.

A-Lian casually cooked a bowl of noodles for herself, but it was already close to 10 o'clock, so she didn't know whether it was breakfast or Chinese food.

After breakfast, A-Lian went out early.

Her job is as a waitress in a tea restaurant on the outskirts of the Kowloon Walled City, and her working hours are from 11:9 noon to [-]:[-] pm.

This job is very busy, and I don't even have time to drink saliva at the busiest time. Fortunately, the boss is generous and the salary is not bad.

She is so poor that she can only rent a house in a ghostly place like the Kowloon Walled City, so there is nothing to be picky about.

After breakfast, Alian changed her clothes, locked the door and prepared to go to work.

At this time, Xu Ming, who lives opposite her house, just came back.

Alian immediately greeted her submissively.

"You, hello."

"Hello."

Xu Ming nodded, took out the key and opened the door.

"Last night, thanks..."

A-Lian wanted to say something, but found that Asakami Fujino behind Xu Ming was staring at her closely.

She couldn't continue speaking after that.

After wandering outside all night, Xu Ming, who was exhausted, didn't notice what she said at all. He just responded mechanically when someone greeted him.

When A-Lian summoned up her courage again, she found that the opposite door had been closed.

Alian immediately left the house in despondency with her head down.

Arriving at the elevator room, A-Lian pushed the elevator up, and reflexively looked inside the elevator, but naturally there was nothing in the elevator.

Alian suddenly laughed at herself.

Not to mention that she watched the old man be wiped out with her own eyes.

It's broad daylight now, and it's almost noon, which is when the yang energy is at its peak.

After stepping into the elevator, A-Lian glanced at her watch and found that it was still early, and the finger that was going to press '1' unexpectedly turned to '15'.

While there was still some time, Alian decided to say hello to the upstairs neighbor.
