Bu Tian Gang

The room is at the end of the right corridor on the second floor, which is commonly known as the "tail room", and beyond that is the fire exit.

He Jia took the key to open the door, and Dong Zhi asked her to wait at the door while he went in and walked around.

The layout of this room is not much different from other rooms, the only difference is that there is an extra altar by the window, on which there is an incense burner. Offer three kinds of fruit.

Dong Zhi walked around the room and was about to come out when he suddenly stopped, squatted down beside the bed, and wiped the floor with his fingers.

But he didn't stay for long, he got up quickly, clapped his hands to wipe off the incense ash, and then walked out of the room.

He Jia was a little surprised: "Ready?"

He smiled and said: "Look, the incense in the incense burner is exhausted, do you want to add some?"

He Jia shook his head: "Auntie told me to order once a week, and don't worry about other times."

The two went up to the third floor again.

He Jia pointed to a room and said, "Brother Dong, this is 3013. Your room is next to mine. If you need anything at night, call customer service. They are on duty 12 hours a day."

Winter Solstice said with a smile: "You don't need to accompany me, I just come here to live fresh and collect some materials."

He Jia's face was slightly red, and he was embarrassed to say that he was extremely happy to eat and play with him, so he could only say: "It's okay, I take care of this shop every day, do handicrafts, and the schedule is quite free..."

Before she finished speaking, she let out a snort.

Dong Zhi followed her line of sight and saw a person lying on the window sill at the end of the corridor on the other side, his upper body was almost outside, and he was still slowly poking out.

"What is he doing!" He Jia exclaimed.

Dong Zhi ran over quickly, grabbed the clothes on the back of the other party, and dragged him back!

The other party was a middle-aged man. When he was dragged back to the ground, he was still dazed: "What are you pulling me for? What's wrong!"

In order to allow residents to overlook the scenery here, and the height of the windows is above the waistline of adults, there is no guardrail outside the window sills. He Jia never thought that someone would commit suicide at the height of the third floor. After a scene, I couldn't help but feel lingering fear.

"You almost fell off just now!"

The man scratched his head, with a blank expression on his face: "I'm just smoking a cigarette by the window!"

He Jia frowned: "Does most of your body need to stick out to smoke?"

"I don't have one...hey, where's my lighter?" He rummaged through his pockets.

This small episode attracted several residents to visit the door, but it was not a big deal, the man quickly went back to his room, and He Jia simply closed and locked the window to avoid further accidents.

"There used to be flower pots outside, but a few of them withered yesterday, so I asked people to move them out and wait for new ones." She was a little scared, if something happened to the guests in the hotel, then her hotel would also be closed. I can't go down.

The two chatted for a while and went back to their rooms. He Jia specially prepared a spacious and luxurious double bed suite for him. Not only did it have a balcony, but besides the ordinary bathroom, there was also a small bathroom with a bathtub and floor-to-ceiling windows next to it. Take a bath while looking at the sea.

The style of the room is the same as the outside, gorgeous and not vulgar, gauze curtains are set up around the big bed, and the quilts on the bed are also covered with lace. Three days and three nights must be the most pleasant thing in life.

Just standing by the bed and looking at it, Dongzhi felt tired and couldn't help but bend down and reach out to touch it.

But his movements stopped suddenly.

Although the body made a tired gesture, but the mind was still awake, a little coolness spread on the neck, Dong Zhi couldn't help reaching out, and touched a triangular talisman.

That was the An Amulet that Long Shen put on him before he came out.

Although it can't dispel evil spirits and suppress demons, at least it can calm the mind and keep the spirit altar clear.

There is something wrong with this hotel.

He had noticed it from the time he was at the door, and when he entered the room, he felt something was wrong.

If there is an aura here that makes people who pass by or come in feel nostalgic for staying here, then why don't He Jia and the hotel staff feel this way?

He Jia even felt that this place made her uncomfortable, so she didn't want to come in.

But He Jia didn't seem to have any weird appearance. If she was pretending, then her acting skills could win an Oscar.

Dong Zhi walked around the room and found nothing for the time being. On the contrary, at the end of the day, he was sweating all over. He put down the piano case and went into the bathroom to take a shower.

The tourism industry in Lucheng is very developed, but most of the tourists who come here for the fame like to stay in this kind of private hotel with Chinese and Western architectural features, to experience the style of Lucheng, and there are few people who choose to go to star hotels, so people like He Jia There are hostels all over Lucheng, especially in the coastal areas, and on the islands away from the city.

Although it's not a regular hotel, it's quite clean, the bathrooms are tidy, and the toiletries are branded, no worse than a star hotel.

He turned on the faucet and was about to wash his face first, when he suddenly heard a bit of noise outside, remembering that he forgot to bring his mobile phone in, he thought it was the mobile phone ringing, so he opened the door to get it, only to see the TV in the room turned on by itself, playing the news.

Winter Solstice froze for a moment.

The remote control is still in the cabinet, and the TV is not voice-activated. Under normal circumstances, it is impossible to turn it on by yourself.

But there was no one else in the room except him, and the door was shut tightly.

He turned off the TV, picked up his phone, and went back into the bathroom.

This time, nothing happened outside until the shower was finished smoothly.

The body moistened by the water relieved a lot of fatigue. On the winter solstice, he put on a bathrobe and walked out of the bathroom. Suddenly there was a rattling sound behind him, and the faucet turned on inexplicably.

He turned his head.

What came out of the faucet was not transparent water, but dark red thick blood.

Blood flowed into the washstand, and blood droplets splashed out again, and the stage was soon covered with blood, which was extremely terrifying.

Dong Zhi stared at the faucet for a while, then turned and left without turning it off.

When he lay on the bed and picked up his phone, he heard the sound of running water stop, and the faucet seemed to turn off by itself.

He curled his lips, and suddenly remembered that when he was staying in a hotel in Changchun, he felt that someone was watching his affairs in the middle of the night, and there was a monster living next to him. Although he was still ignorant at the time, few people can be neighbors with monsters these days One, compared to that time, the current one can only be regarded as pediatrics.

As if in response to his contempt, after turning off the lights and going to sleep, the faucet was automatically turned on again soon, and it was turned on and off for a while, and the noise in the bathroom was never heard.

Dong Zhi directly took out a pair of earplugs from his pocket, plugged his ears, and continued to sleep.

Falling asleep, he felt his nose itchy, as if someone was teasing him with a dog's tail grass, he couldn't help but sneezed, and opened his eyes again.

Then he saw a "person" embedded in the ceiling, lying flat like him, with a dark face, long hair hanging down, and the ends fell right on his nose.

A pair of red and strange eyes were staring at him quietly.

For ordinary people, it is estimated that they can be scared to sudden death from a heart attack.

But the moment Dong Zhi opened his eyes, his hand moved and slipped out of the bed, and a bright light talisman flew up.

"The sky produces water, the earth produces fire, the sky produces wood, the earth produces gold, and the earth produces metal, and the five are in the middle palace, subduing evil, suppressing disasters and dangers, and eradicating evil and traces!"

The moment the talisman fire came into contact with that thing, it ignited, and the thing screamed shrilly, and the talisman fire disappeared suddenly.

Dong Zhi rubbed his eyes, sat up, and calmly said: "No matter what you are, I advise you to stop making trouble, otherwise not only will you not be able to drive me away, but I will take you away."

There was no one in the room except him, if He Jia saw him talking to himself in the air here, he would probably think he was crazy.

But what responded to him was the TV that was suddenly turned on. On the screen, a foreign leader was speaking indignantly against the anti-government organization: "...we will never bow to any terrorist forces!"

Winter Solstice felt inexplicably happy and couldn't help laughing out loud.

The faucet in the bathroom turned on again by itself, and the water was flowing endlessly.

He ignored it, continued to lie down and sleep, and soon fell asleep.

During the long night, whenever something approached him, there would be a flash of red light about three feet away from him.

It was the Changshou sword he had placed next to his pillow.

Suddenly, the faucet suddenly stopped the water, and the LCD TV automatically turned off.

The owner of the sword is having a good dream and seems to be unaffected by anything.

The next day, the sun is bright, and the winter solstice wakes up automatically.

He looked at the calm room and smiled, went into the bathroom to wash his face and brush his teeth.

The water is not the blood seen last night, but normal water.

Nearly nine o'clock, He Jia knocked on the door and invited him downstairs for breakfast.

The hostel provides breakfast, both Chinese and Western styles, and the dishes are not bad. Many guests have already eaten there.

He Jia took the initiative to ask: "Did you encounter any strange things last night?"

Winter Solstice: "Why, did you meet?"

He Jia lowered his voice: "It's not considered a meeting, it's just that when I'm sleeping, I always feel that there is someone next to me. Last night, I dreamed that someone told me not to live here, and left quickly. When I woke up, I couldn't remember who it was. Did you meet him too?"

After that, she wrinkled her nose: "I really don't like this place."

Winter Solstice didn't tell her what happened to her last night, but instead showed an interested look: "I went to bed early last night and didn't see anything, but you said that, I'm quite interested, how about this, you go back first, I'll go to sleep in your room and see if I encounter anything tonight."

He Jia opened his eyes wide. Seeing his high spirits, he couldn't help but ask, "Aren't you afraid?"

Dongzhi: "Of course not. Didn't you say that no one has ever had an accident? Even if there is something, it is probably just to scare us."

He Jia: "Then I will accompany you..."

Winter Solstice stopped and said: "You have been with me all night, maybe you are here, those things go to scare you, so they won't come to me. I will experience it myself first, and there will be materials for comics in the future. Moreover, I It's kind of weird."

He Jia looked at him suspiciously.

Winter Solstice: "Do you still remember the man we met last night? If we didn't find out in time, if he fell headfirst, even on the third floor, his life might be in danger. According to what you said, although this place is strange, it has never been No one was killed, it shouldn't be like this."

He Jia also remembered.

The winter solstice changed the subject: "However, it is also possible that he was not careful and drank too much. Anyway, I have to find a house during the day anyway, and now I live in a hotel, so I just moved here for two days and changed hotels. You are busy with your work, so you don't need to greet me."

Since he plans to do so, He Jia can't say anything more. She is regarded as Bai Fumei in the eyes of the world, and everyone else in the family has things to do. Only she took over the hotel of her aunt after graduation. Free, but she can't be too active and enthusiastic, so as not to scare the male god away.

"Well, if you have any needs, just tell me directly, and I can drive you wherever you want to go."

While talking, the breakfast was coming to an end. In order to please the boss and his friends, the chef of the restaurant specially made two desserts and sent them over.

Looking at the white and attractive blueberry panna cotta during the winter solstice, I was a little dazed for a while.

He remembered that although Long Shen didn't eat well, when he went out to eat, he would occasionally take the initiative to pick up some dishes, and those dishes were basically sweet.

I don't know if the other party likes this kind of milk jelly.

He concentrated on the scenery in his heart, but he didn't realize that he had also become the scenery in He Jia's eyes.

After breakfast, Winter Solstice called Yan Nuo as a routine.

It's the same thing whether people look for him or not. As a newcomer, he has to take the initiative, but Yan Nuo doesn't seem to mind whether he takes the initiative or not at all. A little stunned, Dong Zhi could hear the noise on the other end of the phone, as if someone was arguing.

"Brother Yan, where are you now?"

"I'm at the police station, what's wrong?"

"No, I want to ask if there is anything you need help with?"

Yan Nuo was a little impatient: "Didn't I tell you, I will tell you if you need help! I heard that you are going out to find a house, and you don't want to live in that old house? Then you can find the house first, and I don't need it here." Worry about it!"

After he finished speaking, he was about to hang up again, Dongzhi hurriedly said: "Brother Yan, I encountered a strange thing in the hotel, I wonder if you are free, or send someone over to take a look?"

Yan Nuo: "We have more urgent matters to deal with, can you handle it now?"

Winter Solstice: "It's okay for now, but I don't know if there will be any situation in the future..."

Yan Nuo interrupted him: "Call me if you can't handle it, and deal with it first if you can handle it. Be careful and hang up!"

This temper is really hasty!

Winter Solstice felt a little helpless, it seemed that none of his conversations with Yan Nuo could be completed to the end.

Depressed, he sent another message to Long Shen, clearly reporting the strange things he encountered in the hotel, and actually hoped that the other party would reply to comfort him, but his finger stayed on the sent button for a long time, and in the end he still Delete the message.

Since he has the ability to solve problems, if he bothers Master with everything, what will Master think?It is estimated that he will feel that he is not capable enough, and he will accomplish nothing without the wings.

Dong Zhi didn't know what kind of person Long Shen liked, but he knew what kind of apprentice Long Shen liked.

It's definitely not an apprentice who asks for instructions and reports on the slightest things. He is only cute and coquettish, but has no ability at all.

If you want to catch up with the eagle's footsteps, let yourself become an eagle.

He put the phone back in his pocket, checked out the hotel where he was staying, moved his things to He Jia's hostel, and then went to take a taxi back to the old house that was used as an office, and spent half a day doing simple cleaning , After lunch, I went to a nearby real estate agent, and followed the agent to several nearby places to look at the houses, but I was not satisfied. The agent said that he still had a few houses in his hand, but he didn’t have the keys for the time being. It won't be available until tomorrow, and the two parties agreed to continue viewing the house tomorrow morning.

At the end of the day, the winter solstice basically never rested. When we returned to the hostel, it was already nightfall. Thanks to the "devil-style training" by Long Shen these days, his physical strength recovered a lot after Yinchuan asked the gods. Get down tired.

"Sir, this is what our boss asked me to pass on, saying that she did it herself."

As soon as he returned to the room, the little girl with a sweet smile at the front desk knocked on the door and brought him an exquisite gift box tied with a ribbon.

Thanks for the winter solstice, I took it and asked your boss again.

The little girl said that the boss's house has something to do recently, and she went back to deal with it. Let us treat you well. If you need anything, just call the room service. There are drinks and snacks in the room. It is also very convenient to order takeout nearby.

He Jia seemed to have said yesterday that she did have something to do today, Dongzhi didn't care, put down the gift box and went in to take a bath.

This time, there were no such tricks as the TV turning on automatically, the faucet flowing out of blood, etc. Maybe the other party saw that he was not easy to fool, so they stopped for a while.

The winter solstice was happy and relaxed. After taking a bath, he took out the talisman paper and cinnabar in the piano box. Study hard and practice hard. Once any skill is slack, it is like sailing against the current. If you do not advance, you will retreat.

There are only two kinds of talismans he knows now.One is the Bright Light Talisman, and the other is the Thunder Talisman.

But Long Shen told him that the essence of drawing talismans is not so much, the main function of the bright light talisman is to calm the mind, exorcise evil spirits, and the thunder talisman is to attract the thunder talisman, because he is not like Li Ying and He Yu who have learned talismans since childhood. So as long as you know these two kinds and use them freely, it is enough to turn them into your own.

When he was in the capital, he hadn’t regained his vitality, and Long Shen didn’t let him draw a talisman, saying that it would be easy to hurt his mind, so at that time, he mainly practiced breathing, and then learned Tian Gang’s stellar energy, and practiced his steps and swordsmanship. His ban on drawing talismans.

Seeing the cinnabar on the talisman paper that has been missing for more than a month, a familiar and friendly feeling arises spontaneously. The winter solstice picks up the pen luck, closes the eyes and adjusts the breath, outlines the shape of the talisman in the mind, then opens the eyes and dips in the ink, writing like flying, All in one go.

The most important thing in a piece of talisman paper is not only the talisman aperture, but also the inheritance.

The so-called inheritance refers to the inheritance of Taoism on the talisman. Every talisman has the imprint of the master's inheritance. Ordinary people can't see it, but experts can know it at a glance. For example, on the talismans drawn by Dongzhi and He Yu, there is The inheritance of Hezao school, Li Ying's talisman is the inheritance of Maoshan, Wu Bingtian is the inheritance of Yuanming Palace and so on.A rune without inheritance is invalid, so a truly knowledgeable person can see the inheritance and skill of the person who drew the rune by looking at a rune.

Long Shen didn't have a teacher, so naturally he couldn't use talismans, but Winter Solstice did, and his name was still in the Hezao sect, so he was considered a disciple of Hezao, so he could continue to use talismans.Although Long Shen is powerful, he didn't ask Dong Zhi to give up drawing talismans, and even allowed Dong Zhi to practice more, because the thunder method is very useful, but all the monsters and ghosts in the three realms and six realms are afraid of the power of thunder, and then cooperate with Bu Tiangang , the effect is estimated to be more powerful than simply using the Thunder Talisman.

Winter Solstice has not tried the actual effect of the combination of the two, so I can't help but look forward to it. When I was in Beijing, my body didn't recover, and Long Shen didn't let him use it. There is no special training space like the roof of the General Administration here, so I can't go to the suburbs in the dead of night. Go to practice, in case someone sees it, it will be troublesome.

I am in good condition tonight. I have been drawing for three hours during the winter solstice. I took it and counted it. There are exactly 99 pictures. Excluding the scrapped ones, there are still [-] pictures that can be used.

This is already a record-breaking success rate. When he first learned how to draw talismans, it was remarkable that he could pick out one or two useful ones out of dozens.Not to mention He Yu, even Master Fang Yang, who has passed away, didn't have the ability to draw a successful one.It is rumored that the most powerful painter of talismans in the world today is the head of Longhushan, that is, Zhang Song's master. His old man is the real talisman drawing ghosts and gods. There are very few talismans, and a piece of peace talisman can be sold for a sky-high price if it is placed outside.

Just as he was picking up the drawn runes to appreciate them carefully, he heard noises coming from outside.

There was a lot of movement, as if it came from the edge of the stairs, followed by the sound of talking in a hurry.

Winter Solstice put down the talisman, opened the door and went out to look, and saw that many tenants also heard the movement and opened the door to look. There were also several people standing by the stairs, looking downstairs.

"What's the matter?" There was also a waiter by the stairs, and he walked over and asked.

"A guest on the second floor seems to have a heart attack. He didn't bring any medicine. He has already called an ambulance, but it hasn't arrived yet. The front desk asked us to come over and ask who knows medicine?"

Winter Solstice's heart skipped a beat and he ran to the second floor.

In the corridor on the second floor, a middle-aged woman was lying at the door of one of the rooms, surrounded by many people, and someone was giving her cardiac emergency aid.

"Mom, mom, wake up!" A young girl wiped tears beside her.

The person who did the first aid was very professional, and his expression was very calm. He looked like he should be a medical student or a doctor, and there were strangers beside him, all of whom were helping to call to find emergency medicine.

Winter Solstice didn't know medicine, so he didn't come forward to join in the fun, but he looked around, his eyes stopped suddenly, and his normally gentle and harmless peach blossom eyes narrowed slightly.

The person doing first aid is hitting the victim's heart with his fist.

It seemed nothing unusual to others, it was a first-aid method for a heart attack.

But Dong Zhi saw that every time his fist went down, he couldn't touch the opponent's chest.

Because it was blocked by a black shadow.

If you look carefully, there seems to be something hidden behind the rescuer, like a shadow that cannot be seen by the light. Between the hands of the rescuer and the body of the sick person, prevent the sick person from being rescued.

But the people around didn't notice it. In their eyes, it was clear that the rescuer had been helping, but the sick person didn't respond, and the situation was obviously very bad.

If this continues, within a few seconds, the patient will die!

Dong Zhi held the Bright Light Talisman in his hand, quietly walked around behind the rescuer, suddenly reached out, and slapped the rescuer hard on the back of the neck!

The man who was concentrating on saving others screamed in pain, Dong Zhi quickly withdrew his hand and put his clenched fist into his pocket.

"I saw a fly on your neck just now..." He stammered with embarrassment on his face.

Seeing that he obstructed the first aid, everyone glared at each other and said nothing.

"What's the trouble, people are saving lives, didn't you see it?!"

"What a brat, go away!"

Someone stepped forward to push him, and Dong Zhi repeatedly apologized and retreated.

"There is a reaction! There is a reaction!"

"She's awake!"

After a while, everyone shouted in surprise, and they couldn't care about the winter solstice.

The ambulance also came, and everyone rushed to help carry the man onto the stretcher. The family members thanked those who helped in the first aid, and soon followed the car. The middle-aged men gathered around and praised him for his skillful hands and kindness. The man was embarrassed by the praise, and hurriedly said that he was a doctor, and this kind of thing often happened when he was out of the house, and he taught others how to first aid.

No one noticed that Dongzhi had left the scene and quietly returned to the room.

The author has something to say:

Winter Solstice: When it’s over, brush off your clothes and hide your achievements and fame. I’ll pretend to be tough next time.
