did not meet tonight

Chapter 230 Earth Demon

This place is very dark, the surrounding windows are sealed with wood, and a few beams of light are cast through the gaps, barely able to see the surrounding environment clearly.The place is very messy, there are flying dust everywhere, the air is cloudy, some sundries are piled up on the ground, and a staircase extends upwards, leading to nowhere.

There is no other exit, it seems that the person just went up from here, Xiao Yu and Ye Jian glanced at each other, and they both went up the stairs at the same time.Xiao Yu wasn't sure what was ahead, so he gently held Ye Jian's hand, signaling him to be careful.

The stairs were very narrow, completely different from other places in the store. They quickly walked to the end, and a wooden door appeared in front of them. The door panel was still creaking and shaking, as if someone just ran in from here.

The inside of the door was pitch black and there was no light at all. Xiao Yu stretched out his hand to block Ye Jian, walked in front of him, and pushed the door open.

There was an ear-piercing creaking sound, and a smell of rotting flesh rushed towards him, but the light was too dim to see anything clearly.Ye Jian took out his mobile phone to light it up, and just when the flashlight function was turned on, a pale face suddenly appeared in the beam of light, grinning at him.Ye Jian was startled, the phone fell to the ground, and the screen went off, Xiao Yu pulled him back, and the two of them stepped back, leaning their backs against the wall.

"That just now...was it a human or a ghost?" Ye Jianhou asked in fear, he was so frightened that he didn't even bother to pick up his phone.

Footsteps suddenly sounded outside the door, Xiao Yu pulled Ye Jian to hide in a corner, the door was pushed open after a while, and Ji Zonglun walked in with a flashlight.His face was indifferent, and he was completely different from the gentle look before. This sweeping light made Xiao Yu see clearly that the room was full of dead animals, some of which had dried up, and some of which were only rotten and only bones remained. , while a figure was hiding under the table and shivering.

Ji Zonglun pulled him out. It was a man in his thirties, with a thin body, pale face, a pair of eyes full of fright, and whimpering, but he didn't dare to resist.Ji Zonglun dragged him away, the wooden door closed in response, and the room fell into darkness again.Hearing the sound of them coming down the stairs, Ye Jian breathed a sigh of relief. He fumbled to find his mobile phone and turned it on again. The hideous animal bones made him shudder, and he and Xiao Yu looked at each other, saying no to each other. Speak up.

"Let's leave here first." Xiao Yu signaled him.

He tried to open the door, but the wooden door didn't move at all. It was obviously locked from the outside. If he kicked it open forcefully, it would definitely attract Ji Zonglun's attention.Ye Jian looked around, and soon found a small door on the back wall, which was covered by a wooden board, deliberately trying to conceal it.They moved the things blocking the door and pulled hard, the heavily corroded lock buckle broke under the load, and a beam of light and the sound of gurgling water came in.

It turned out that the back of this room is the hot spring room, and the pipes pass through the ground and are connected to the soup pool one by one. Since there are no guests, all the soup pools are cold and look very deserted.Ye Jian thought that all the spring water was poured into the pool through the room full of dead animals, and couldn't help shivering, his pores all stood up, after all, he had soaked in it for two hours!

"Is this Ji Zonglun mentally ill, or why would he do such a thing in his own shop?" Ye Jian said.

Generally, people who open a shop will try their best to be auspicious, and the disaster of blood and light is the most serious among them. Now Ji Zonglun hangs so many animal corpses near the hot spring room. You must know that this place is the source of wealth for the villa. He did not intend to do this. Are you having trouble with yourself?

"Maybe there will be an answer tonight." Xiao Yu said.

"You said that if we prove that he is the instigator, then we won't get the rest of the money, right?" Ye Jian said hesitantly, he had read the contract, the deposit was 40.00%, and the rest will be paid in full after the end. If the client is Criminal, where else can I ask for money?

"I remember you just said something about punishing evil and promoting good yesterday." Xiao Yu glanced at him and couldn't help but find it funny.

"It's true, but I don't feel good about it." Ye Jian frowned.

"You still have time to think about it." Xiao Yu reminded.

Ye Jian thought for a while, and said as if he had made up his mind: "Oh, forget it, who made me a good young man under the banner of socialism, this time I will return to a loss-making business!"

As he spoke, he slid the door of the hot spring room, but it was Ji Zonglun who appeared outside the door.He looked surprised: "Didn't Mr. Xiao and Mr. Ye go to investigate that animal? Why are they here?"

Ye Jian didn't know how to answer, but Xiao Yu was very calm, and said without blushing, "We wanted to come here to soak in the hot spring for a while, but we saw that the water was not hot, so we were about to go back."

Ji Zonglun said in embarrassment, "Because there are no customers in the store today, in order to save money, I can only turn off the thermostat, but it doesn't matter, I will open it now."

"Don't bother, let's go back and take a hot shower." Ye Jian said hastily, in order to pretend to be a little bit, he also sniffed his clothes on purpose, "I just smelled the blood of that animal on my body, so I have to hurry up." Deal with it."

"I'm really sorry to cause you trouble." Ji Zonglun said apologetically.

When they left the hot spring room, Xiao Yu asked casually, "Mr. Ji, where are those two mentally disturbed employees now?"

"One of them has already been picked up by his family, and the other one lives in the store. Mr. Xiao wants to meet?" Ji Zonglun said.

"Not for now, if necessary, I will ask Mr. Ji to arrange it." After finishing speaking, Xiao Yu left here.When turning the corner, Ye Jian glanced back, but unexpectedly, his eyes met Ji Zonglun's. He pretended to smile calmly, and his hair was bristling for some reason.

"Go back to your room first, I'll go find Feng Ze." Xiao Yu said.

"Are you planning something in the morning?" Looking at their appearance at that time, Ye Jian always felt that they had something to hide from him.

"Don't worry, I'll tell you later." Xiao Yu stroked his head as if to comfort a child, "Go back to the room first and pay more attention to Ji Zonglun's actions."

Ye Jian now seriously suspects that his IQ is insufficient, otherwise why would he be so obedient, but at this time Xiao Yu has already knocked on Feng Ze's door.The door opened quickly, Feng Ze twitched his mouth and asked, "Are you in trouble?"

Xiao Yu didn't beat around the bush with him, and told him what he had just met.Feng Ze pondered for a moment after hearing this, and said, "He is using this method to suppress the evil in this house."

Sha is a kind of ghost, it will always linger in the same place like the ground binding spirit, but there is a big difference between the two.The existence of the earth-bound spirits had unfulfilled wishes in their lifetime, and they formed obsessions that made it impossible to reincarnate. The ghosts that became Sha are often full of resentment and have a strong attack power. When Feng Ze stepped into the hot spring villa, he felt it. .

The existence of sha will greatly affect the feng shui of the homestead and the luck of the owner, and it is very likely that it will possess the owner. It is not easy to get rid of sha.The animals in the mountains are all grown up under the essence of the sun and the moon. They are very spiritual in themselves, and blood is the best medium to exorcise evil spirits. , but it will make it more difficult to deal with. It is probably because of this discovery that Ji Zonglun will take the risk.

"So he hired me to come here with you. First, he wants you to solve the problem of this house, and second, he wants us to prove that there is no problem with this house." Xiao Yu said with a frown.

"It's a pity, what you think of is not money, but reason." Feng Ze had a mocking tone as before.

"If you're not interested, you can turn a blind eye." Xiao Yu retorted back.

"I really don't want to intervene. It's just that there is someone in charge of this case. If Sha persists, it will also affect him. Besides, Ji Zonglun's price is not low." Xiao Yu said calmly.

"Do you need help at night?" It's not right, but Xiao Yu still won't refuse what should be done.

"Sha will pick on people with weak spirits. Now I can't be sure whether it is attached to Ji Zonglun, so you'd better not get too close to him." Feng Ze reminded.

"Since the evil you mentioned was formed after death, it means that a murder case probably happened in this store." Xiao Yu said calmly.

"You don't seem to be a policeman anymore." Feng Ze said mockingly.

"It seems that the two of us are doing loss-making business this time." Xiao Yu said.

"Whether you're losing money or not, you can't use numbers to measure it, just like you didn't come here for that commission." Feng Ze handed him a cigarette, and the two lit a lighter.

"To each other." Xiao Yu smiled at him, and the two of them knew each other.
