spirit walker says

Chapter 17 City South

"Stop, stop, stop... stop!" He Yunqi had just brought the man back when he was punched hard by the kid on the face, his nose was sore and he almost burst into tears. He quickly let go of his hand and hurriedly explained: " it's me!"

"Why do you..." Ji Chen was still in a state of extreme tension. His body was tense, and his hand holding the jade pendant was so forceful that it almost convulsed. He tilted his head and stopped his eyes on the closed door in front of him. There is a lock on the door and it looks like it works!

Completely ignoring Mr. He whose face was swollen from his punch, Ji Chen quickly turned over the backpack in front of him, and found a fairly flat talisman from inside.

He held the talisman in one hand, and took out a small spray bottle from his bag with the other. Controlling his trembling hands, he squeezed the spray bottle and shook it quickly. The yellow paper slapped on the back of the door with a "snap".

He Yunqi only met Ji Chen twice, but he had never seen him like this.

The utility room is extremely small, so narrow that Ji Chen only needs to stretch out his hand to touch the door, and step back two steps to reach the window.And the only window, at this time, even a ray of moonlight could not penetrate.Through the gray window, one can only see a mixture of pure black, and can't detect a tiny bit of light.

"Are you okay..." After waiting for about a minute, He Yunqi felt Ji Chen's relaxation. The young man's body and emotions finally calmed down, but the small space was still full of his emotions. The tense and heavy breathing, all his strength was exhausted in the thrilling escape just now.

The light in the room was too dim, but fortunately He Yunqi had already lit a candle when he first came in, the lamp was like a bean, at least there was light, it finally illuminated the world and helped them see the things in the house clearly.

This candle was just brought by him from the three children, and it was already in use before it was warmed up.

"What do you have to come here..." Ji Chen's tone was much more excited than He Yunqi had imagined. The person behind him had piercing eyes and complex expressions.

The dim candlelight in the room shone on his face, reflecting the sweat beads on his forehead and the blood stains on his cheeks that had been wiped indiscriminately.

He Yunqi was taken aback, and stretched out his hand unconsciously. The two of them were very close. He didn't need much effort to touch Ji Chen's cheek. The blood stain was not completely dried, obviously it was applied not long ago.He Yunqi frowned, and his tone suddenly dropped several times: "What's going on?"

Surprisingly, Ji Chen didn't slap his hand away, but after being touched by him on the face, he unnaturally turned his head to hide, took a deep breath and said, "It's just a small problem..." Although he was understating it, but After opening his head, his eyelashes fluttered slightly, but they were still intact by the candlelight, casting a flickering shadow on his face.

He Yunqi noticed his uneasiness, so he didn't continue to ask any more questions, but took a half step back very politely, and put a little distance away from him: "What is that thing outside the door?"

Ji Chen didn't intend to answer directly, he frowned, showing an impatient look, and turned the question back to He Yunqi again: "Why do you have to follow me, that thing..."

"It's the thing Liang Tianmeng told him that Chen Xiao would not die with peace, and asked him to set up a trap to harm others, isn't it?"

There was an eerie silence in the air.There was some surprise in Ji Chen's eyes. He was stunned for a few seconds, then bit his lower lip, and said, "Yes, I'm here to deal with him, but I didn't expect this thing... to be so fierce."

About a week ago, Ji Chen received a task from his superiors.

Chengnan Maternal and Child Health Hospital, a haunted building that has been standing in urban legend for ten years, has seen frequent visions recently.According to the report of the spirit walkers who have been monitoring in the south of the city all year round, this hospital has been abandoned for a long time and is deserted, so there are often passing spirits coming in and out, and they regard it as a temporary resting point.

However, since entering Ghost Moon, there have been problems with the spirit body measurement in this hospital.

There were a large number of spirit bodies that entered the hospital at the beginning of the ghost, and then never came out again. If they were entrenched in the hospital, we should be able to detect traces of their existence according to the test feedback, but this is not the case. Those spirit bodies , no matter wandering alone or in groups, as long as they enter this hospital, they will all evaporate out of thin air.

This is obviously illogical and counterintuitive.

After receiving a series of materials from above, Ji Chen accepted the commission for a very simple reason, because the reward for this order was very generous.

But what Ji Chen didn't expect was that this thing hiding in the women's and children's house in the south of the city would be so difficult.

In the afternoon, he came to the abandoned hospital, and unfortunately bumped into He Yunqi who came here to look for clients.The word "unfortunate" here is Ji Chen's original words. He didn't worry about the other party of "unfortunate" standing in front of him, and he started talking about it on his own.

After learning of He Yunqi's purpose, Ji Chen understood that they were not in the same group, but since someone was lost here, this element must be taken into account in the action plan.If people can be cleared out of the building first, then the next things will be much easier to solve.

"This bureau set up by Liang Tian has five organs in total from the first floor to the third floor. Except for the rope on the third floor..." Ji Chen pulled out a piece of hemp rope covered in dust from his bag, "I tore it out through the crack in the door of the operating room on the third floor."

"There is also a pit dug next to the toilet on the first floor with a trap of iron picks, a thin steel wire drawn at the corner of the second floor, and detergent on the stairs on the fourth floor..." At this point, Ji Chen paused, his tone changed. He said in a low voice, "Don't look at these things as seemingly insignificant, in such a dark and unsettling place, you may endanger your life if you sprinkle nails all over the place."

No wonder from the very beginning, Ji Chen has been emphasizing that there is nothing in this building, so as to prevent people other than him from rummaging around looking for someone, but how did he know the existence of these mechanisms, and trigger them when they are triggered? Cleaned them all up before?

Ji Chen took out the bracelet from the interlayer of the backpack, the answer is here.

No matter how many times I look at it, it doesn't look like his stuff.

The beads on the bracelet are too big, and the style is not young, it can even be said to be old-fashioned. There is a bodhi seed sandwiched between the row of black beads, and what is even more frightening is that there is a red tassel strung on the bodhi seed. Matching is absolutely impossible to be liked by 20-year-old young people.

"This is..." It's not good for He Yunqi to directly say that this thing is not good-looking. If Ji Chen really has any unique aesthetic needs, he will only embarrass himself by complaining so directly.

Ji Chen put it on and turned his wrist lightly: "It's one of my seniors."

senior?Is the bracelet something from the predecessors?Why are the senior's things on him?Is this the so-called...

"When I first started in the industry, I didn't know anything. I was fooling around. It was my senior who taught me a lot, but he has been gone for two years." The second half of Ji Chen's timely words interrupted He Yun. It has associations that are farther and farther away and more and more unconstrained.This "going" should mean death, right?

Seeing that the topic suddenly became sad, He Yunqi hurriedly comforted him: "People cannot be resurrected after death, don't be too sad..."

Ji Chen didn't show too much sadness. Instead, he looked up at He Yunqi, pointed to the obsidian bracelet on his wrist, and said in a slightly relaxed tone, "This... is my senior. The one who was in the building just now Everything, including the 'Chen Xiao' who confronted Liang Tian on the fifth floor, and the hands that slapped those children were all from him."

The air was silent for a second or two, and He Yunqi couldn't make sense of it. He found that since he met the person in front of him, his brain would often enter some inexplicable froze state, and he often had to reason several times before he could understand what he meant.

"You mean, the owner of this thing has been away for two years, but he hasn't completely left, so he stayed in this bracelet?"

"correct."

He Yunqi blurted out: "Then isn't he with you every day?"

"Ah?" Ji Chen never thought that He Yunqi's first question after learning about this would be this. He was ready to continue the matter of driving his seniors to solve the agency, but the person in front of him just said The words choked back into his stomach.The young man thought about it for a while, and said solemnly: "I don't usually take it with me. This thing is too rustic. When it has nothing to do, it will go out by itself and come back at dawn."

Oh, it turns out that I am not the only one who thinks it is dirty, it turns out that this senior was freed.He Yunqi's inexplicably suspended heart returned to his stomach inexplicably.

Then most of the traps just now were solved by Ji Chen and this senior, and Fang Qiaoqiao stepped on the third floor before he had time to solve it. Only then did she pick up that little life of hers.

Then the problem comes back to the thing at the door.

Why did it enter Liang Tian's dream, pretending to be Chen Xiao's identity, and instigate Liang Tian to set up a trap that could kill people at any time?Does this have anything to do with the cloud of spirit bodies he saw just now outside the hospital?

While he was thinking, Ji Chen had already turned around and began to check the situation of the door.It has been barren for ten years, and the old door has long been covered with dust and cobwebs, and there are bursts of smoke and dust when it is moved casually. If the respiratory tract is weak, there is no way to survive in this place for more than 10 minutes.

The young man put his hand on the door panel, without saying a word, as if he was sensing something, the candle in the room was burning quietly, reflecting his white clothes slightly yellow, Ji Chen's expression was hidden in the shadow that the candle couldn't reach Here, the atmosphere became serious in an instant.

The door was old and the lock was not new, but fortunately it was still usable. As long as the door could be closed, the remaining three talismans in the bag would be enough for them to last until dawn no matter what.Ji Chen is thinking about how to solve this matter after dawn, let this thing go away this time, and don't know when to catch him next time.

"We have to sort it out again. Now this pile of things is too messy, and I can't figure out some things." Seeing that Ji Chen had calmed down, He Yunqi seized the opportunity to offer his own ideas, the candlelight flickered , made the narrow room a bit warmer, but created an atmosphere suitable for combing and thinking, "Why did it choose Liang Tian? Does it have any intentions in doing so?"

"It's purely a coincidence." Ji Chen's breathing calmed down. He turned around, found a fairly stable table, dusted it casually, and sat on it with a light jump. He Yunqi watched him put the white uniform on his back. Duan pressed down on the dusty countertop, and couldn't help reminding: "You are all white, doesn't it matter?"

But Ji Chen didn't care, raised his black and white eyes to look at him, and said: "It's dirty and washed, I'm exhausted, let me sit for a while."

He Yunqi didn't dwell too much on this insignificant issue, and sat down on a random table, which happened to be face to face with Ji Chen.

The young man crossed his slender legs, raised his white wrist and wiped his nose, and added in a low voice: "People's hearts are fragile, and evil thoughts often take advantage of them. The word obsessed with ghosts is still a bit vague when you think about it carefully. Meaning. Liang Tian has been blaming himself for a long time. He usually has no friends, and he is deeply concerned about Chen Xiao's death. His mental state is inherently unstable, and he is more likely to be bewitched by evil spirits at this time."

"But what is he bewitching Liang Tian to do?" He Yunqi's gaze rested on Ji Chen's fingers pinching the bridge of his nose. He thought for a while, then took out a tissue from his pocket and handed it over. He said with a playful smile, "Hey, I too I know I look better than Pan An, but you don't have to be like this... Control yourself."

"..." Ji Chen rolled his eyes, took the tissue he handed over, lowered his head, cleaned up the blood stains left just now, pinched the bridge of his nose and said: "Using Liang Tian to set up a trap, it's terrible."
