I, C, attend the funeral

The night was getting darker and darker, and the dark clouds hanging over the Wanghai Hotel finally showed signs of dissipating.

The big Maine Coon cat was lying on the roof of the row next to the hotel building, with its tail upright, its eyes fixed on the lighted room directly above it.

It saw that the light was gradually returning to brightness, and the black smoke covering the incandescent lamp seemed to have disappeared a lot.

Those amber blue pupils were crowded by black pupils that were gradually rounding. When Zihe walked to the bed and looked out, he curled up slightly and hid himself in the darkness.

The stench in the room of 601 is still there, and Zhao Yin grabbed a handful of super useful glutinous rice in his hand, and looked around, waiting for the other two corpses who stayed in this room. Resentment, other ghosts accumulating hatred appear.

They've already killed four, and there are a few more waves to go, so much more to come.

But after a long stalemate, room 601 was still quiet. The two stood still, their legs were sore, and no ghost came out.

Zhao Yin had no choice but to insert three soul-returning incense sticks at the entrance of the room, trying to use the incense to lure other ghosts to come out to inhale and worship.

But Liu Jun, the boss who was standing in the corridor on the sixth floor, suddenly received a call. After dozens of seconds, Liu Jun showed a strange expression on his face.

He hung up the phone and glanced at the door of room 601. Because of the long silence in the corridor, the voice-activated lights had long been turned off.The light in the guest room steadily illuminated the square inch of the corridor at the door, and even produced a hint of warmth.

"Get those two people inside out." Liu Jun left these words, turned around and took the elevator downstairs.

The security captain looked puzzled, just now he called the two in room 601 masters, and wished to hold them in his hands with respect, why did they change completely now?

But watching Liu Jun leave in the elevator, the security captain was still happy to tell the two liars to leave, so he walked towards room 601 with big strides.

And just received a phone call from the friend who recommended the master to him, and learned that he was coaxed by those two children, and the real master just came at this moment. He was in the lobby downstairs, stopped by the little security guards, and humiliated him to his heart's content...

When he got out of the elevator, he wiped off his cold sweat. When he saw the master standing in the hall with a sullen expression on his face, who was about to leave, he hurriedly shouted: "Oh, master, I'm waiting for you. I didn't take good care of me!"

The master's face was flushed with anger by the little security guard who stubbornly blocked the way. He hadn't felt this kind of anger for a long time.

He was about to leave right away, and later set up a bad luck bureau for the owner of the Blue Ocean Hotel to avenge today's revenge.

Only then did he turn around, and heard a voice from the elevator, and then stopped with his little follower boy, and looked at Liu Jun with a cold face.

His eyes are super cool.

The brawny security guard who was still mocking the master as a liar just now, and swore that 'the real master is already upstairs', instantly turned into a weak chicken, watching his boss rushing towards him with Xiaoxin again in astonishment In front of the "Idle People Waiting" in front of me, I bowed and apologized...

he……

"..." The security guard of the brawny man stood by the side with a dazed face, thinking sadly: Why hasn't he disappeared in place.

"I'm sorry, our security guard is ignorant, I will fire him tomorrow. I'm really sorry, Liu is here to apologize to the master, master, you have a lot, but don't be as knowledgeable as ordinary people like us." Liu Jun panicked. , what he said was true.

"..." The security guard of the strong man felt as if he had been beaten, and his heart ached.

The master was dressed in a clean and tidy Taoist robe, his hair was neatly tied in a bun on the top of his head, and he was well dressed. He even held a whisk in his arms, full of immortality.

Although the long broom eyebrows, triangular eyes and mustache don't make him look like a good person, but the way he raises his eyelids to look at people is full of aura.

Liu Jun hurriedly and respectfully invited the master into the elevator, but in the end he still kept the master, he was relieved, but still worried.

I'm afraid that although the master stayed on the surface, but still holds a grudge, what should I do?

Turning his head to look at the boy standing beside the master whose long hair was tied into two small tangles, he found that even this boy had a frosty face, with the proud appearance of a young adult.

He sighed, licked his lips, and hurriedly said to the master: "Before, there were two young men who pretended to be you, master. After all, I have never met you before, so..."

"There is such a thing!" The master called himself Zhang Qingyuan, and he has always been very popular in the rich circle. Many rich people obeyed him and stuffed money into his pocket every day thinking of the law.

When he heard that someone pretended to be himself to cheat food and drink, the original condensation on his face immediately turned into anger.

All the famous people in this world hate someone who uses their name to swagger through the market, tarnish their reputation, and hinder their careers.

Especially in his line of business, what he relies on most is word of mouth.

Those two swindlers who pretended to be his name were simply stealing money from him. He clenched his fists and his eyes became sharp.

After getting out of the elevator, Liu Jun led the master to Room 601, only to see Zihe and Zhao Yincai being invited out of Room 601 by the security captain.

"These two crooks?" Zhang Qingyuan looked at Zihe and Zhao Yin, and said coldly, "After I finish exorcising evil spirits, send these two to the police station. You can't encourage young people to act The evil deeds of cheating, this is also to help them learn a lesson."

After that, his eyes were slightly cold, and he deliberately said in a voice that everyone in the corridor could hear: "I'm afraid the two of them have been haunted by ghosts, and they will be unlucky for a few months. If they beg me later, maybe I will show kindness and help them drive away evil spirits."

As he spoke, he habitually shook his whisk and raised his chin slightly.

"Ah, yes." Liu Jun responded hastily.

In the past, he was an all-powerful little boss, but he didn't dare to make mistakes in front of this kind of master who called the wind and rain.

He listened to the master's words, and turned his head to look at the two young men. Fortunately, the two of them were unlucky. It's not good to fight under the banner of Master Zhang Qingyuan!

This master is Longhu Tianshi, who is directly descended from Zhang Tianshi of Longhu Mountain. He has a big reputation and a bad temper.

I also spent a lot of money with great difficulty, and asked friends to help me in various ways, so I could get it.

If it was any other master today, the two children would have been disciplined at most, but when they met Master Zhang, they would be in trouble.

Look at the two children standing at the door of 601, they are really young and unreliable.

Look at Zhang Tianshi again, tsk tsk, the spirit of immortality.

The security captain saw that the boss Liu Jun personally invited another master, and couldn't help but curse in his heart: all the liars in the city are here.

They also heard the master's words at this end of the corridor, the security captain gave Zihe and Zhao Yin a disapproving look, and thought: "It's good, the liars are killing each other."

Zihe and Zhao Yin naturally also heard those words, and they both stared at the so-called Tianshi Zhang, just like the captain of the security guard looked at himself, and their attitude towards Tianshi Zhang was also disapproving.

Zhao Yin has always thought that people who take money to do things are charlatans who cheat money.

There is only one Taoist priest that Zihe would be afraid of in this world, and that is Chen Ju, the old master of Zixuan Temple.

When the Taoist priest Zhang Qingyuan passed by Zihe and Zhao Yin, he squinted at the two of them, and then shook the dust, shaking Zihe's face to ashes.

Zihe frowned. He heard from the security captain that the master was called Zhang Qingyuan. Unfortunately, this name must not be his real name. He guessed that this Tianshi Zhang in Longhu Mountain might not have the surname Zhang at all—otherwise, looking at this guy's swindling and abducting face, he did all kinds of evil. , He really wanted to call out the other party's name.

Zhang Tianshi looked down at Zhao Yinbu's Gongxiang at the door, and kicked it away.

"..." Zhao Yin frowned uncontrollably, but he held back and didn't attack.

Zhang Tianshi saw that there was neither a Dharma platform nor a Dharma formation in the house, but there were countless glutinous rice on the ground, which looked like feeding chickens, he looked disdainful.

"Just watch from outside the door, so you can see what a real ritual is." Without turning his head, Zhang Tianshi stepped into 601.

When Zihe and Zhao Yin left Room 601, their anger subsided, and the ghosts must have felt it.

Now Zhang Tianshi took the little boy beside him into 601, the anger poured in, and the ghosts must have felt it too.

Zihe narrowed his eyes slightly.

Zhao Yin also grasped the hammer in his hand tightly: it was written in the Taoist scriptures he read that when the mage frightened the ghosts, the evil spirits would remember the mage's breath and then hide.

After that, they will only reappear when the anger that is not a mage breath enters their hunting range.

This is also the reason why Zhao Yin didn't stop Zhang Tianshi from entering 601. Since the other party is a master, being a bait is also a soldier.

Fucking honest thought.

He is definitely not holding a grudge against Zhang Tianshi.

……

……

Zhang Tianshi's life has been bumpy - so far, there have been ups and downs.

It is only when I reach a certain age that I finally meet the master job that suits me.

It can be regarded as a person who has experienced a lot and has seen the world.

Why are rich people often unlucky recently, so help them make a lucky display;

What little star has never been popular, please help the other party to ask a fox fairy to enshrine;

What kind of official's family's children are admitted to college, and they must pass the exam if they ask for it;

What haunted house to exorcise evil spirits, the construction start counts the date...

I have experienced all kinds of scenes. A small hotel is haunted, but it is just a small case to make extra money.

When the master entered door 601, he straightened his back even more when he felt the eyes of several people behind him, including the two little liars.

In his line of work, everything can be destroyed, but the prestige cannot be destroyed.

Everything can be broken, but word of mouth cannot be broken.

He shook his whisk, stood inside the door, and looked at the empty room seriously from left to right.

I don't know if it's an illusion, but the lights in this room seem to be a little dimmer than when I stood outside and looked in.

The cold wind blew across his neck, causing goosebumps to form on the back of his neck.

He took four square steps, paused and looked at each step, his face was full of inscrutable depths, as if he could see something tricky every time he glanced at it.

The boss Liu Jun standing outside the door was one step away from the two unlucky boys, Ion He and Zhao Yin.

He rubbed his hands nervously and stared at the master in the room—as expected, the master was the master, and he didn't shy away from watching them at the door.

Like the two little liars around him just now, let him and the security captain stay away, probably because they are afraid that they will see through their swindlers after seeing them.

Look at the steps and momentum of the master.

Liu Jun nodded inexplicably.

Zihe took a look at Liu Jun, curled his lips almost imperceptibly, and thought, "Stupid."

Zhao Yin stared at the room without blinking, clutching the glutinous rice and the official hammer tightly in his hand, waiting for an opportunity - he was afraid that the old bait would really die in the room.

The chill in the room seemed to seep into the corridor, and the four people standing at the door of 601 unconsciously shrank their shoulders.

The stench in the nose seems to be getting stronger again.

The master walked to the bedroom and stood where the bed was before, frowning in thought, turning around in a circle, his eyes twinkling, as if he could see through some things that others couldn't see through.

While observing, he shook his head and muttered words in his mouth.

With his appearance, Liu Jun at the door became more and more nervous.

The lights in the room flickered suddenly, the master turned his head slightly, and the solemn expression on his face trembled.

Why is the voltage unstable in this hotel?

He licked his lips, suppressed the discomfort in his heart, and thought: This is better, more atmospheric, and it seems that there are really ghosts in the world.

Thinking of this, he immediately whisked his hands away, followed by another flash of light.

The lighting is so coordinated, the master is secretly delighted.

After he raised his arm and shook his whisk, he immediately said to the little boy behind him who was touching his neck with some fear: "Adou, lay the floor!"

"Yes, master." A Dou immediately trained his stress response, and the child's voice said loudly.

Immediately, Master Zhang put the whisk on his shoulders, turned around and walked towards the bathroom.

Facing the few people outside the door, he was full of determination and confidence, without any fear, and walked very steadily.

In the dim light, Liu Jun outside the door could only see the expression on the master's face.

But Zihe, in the slightly trembling light, saw something else...

Master Zhang Qingyuan looked at Liu Jun's admiring eyes, and felt both proud and somewhat contemptuous: These stupid businessmen have nothing but money, and their heads are full of shit.

Thinking like this, he narrowed his eyes slightly, turned around, and turned into the bathroom next to the entrance.

From Zihe's point of view, this so-called master is not hunting ghosts, but on tour.

He also narrowed his eyes slightly, but not to put on a show, but stared at a corner in the bathroom, ready to move.

Zhao Yin also seemed to feel something, when Liu Jun and the security captain were not paying attention, he took a slight step forward, ready to go.

Master Zhang walked into the bathroom and found many drops of water on the wall. Looking down, he found that his feet were wet and covered with tiny drops of steam condensation.

Among these tiny steam droplets, there are a few footprints made by bare feet, walking out of the bathroom.

He turned around and saw that there were also footprints at the entrance, and the water marks were still clear, as if someone had just finished taking a bath and walked out from here - it was the footprints of a small woman.

He pursed his lips and frowned, inexplicably feeling a little horrified.

But then I thought about it again: Those two little liars just now knew how to cheat, so they made a few footprints that were fake, and then told the boss Liu Jun that they were ghost footprints.

Then let me say that the ghost who stepped on this footprint has been caught... Hehe, at such a young age, deception is very mature!

Turning his head, he looked at the water droplets on the wall in the bathroom, the humid air-conditioning in the bathroom, and the crooked words written on the bathroom mirror in the water vapor... all lost the weird atmosphere.

It's just a child's trick.

He pulled one corner of his mouth, thinking coldly.

Before he walked out of the bathroom, he saw a figure squatting by the bathtub scooping up water, and frowned: Did the little boy A Dou spill the talisman water needed for the practice again?Why did you come to scoop water again?

How many times have I said, I have to hold the props well, I really can’t remember how many times I have said it.

Suppressing his temper, thinking that there are outsiders like Liu Jun outside the door, he can't show his timidity.

When I get home, I have to teach this stupid boy a lesson!

He frowned in displeasure, and walked out of the bathroom with square steps. Under the gaze of several people outside the door, he staggered and turned towards the bedroom——

After Ah Dou has prepared the 'Fu Shui' and set up the platform, he will start to perform the Yu steps taken in the Taoist practice.

But the steps he had just taken suddenly froze.

I saw my little boy A Dou squatting in the bedroom, laying the floor seriously.

And that bottle of talisman water that he had prepared at home was well placed beside him...

He just felt a chill all over his body, and he was stunned.

Fingers began to tremble slightly, when there was a cold wind blowing on the neck again and again, when the stench in the nose became stronger and stronger, when the lights above the head flickered again, when the soles of the feet felt wet, cold and sticky...

He could no longer calm down, and his brain could no longer continue to laugh at the tricks of those two little liars. His feet seemed to be rooted in the ground, and he could hardly move.

Watching the little boy A Dou squatting there unconsciously and carefully setting up the floor, he heard the sound of dripping water in the bathroom stop. close to himself.

There also seemed to be a chill in his nostrils, as if he wanted to drill into his nostrils.

His lips began to tremble, and his jaw chattered slightly.He wanted to move his feet back, but his legs seemed to be filled with lead.

He wanted to muster up the courage to turn his head, to see if it was another trick by the crook outside the door, but... his neck was also stiff like a person with a stiff neck.

His lips turned white, and he felt his whole body getting colder and colder, as if something icy all over his body hugged him.

At this time, the little boy A Dou turned around after laying the floor. When he saw the master, he first nodded to the master.

But the next moment, Master Zhang saw Adou's pupils contract suddenly, as if seeing something terrible behind him.

He could no longer restrain his fear, his throat made a sound like being stuck in thick phlegm, his facial muscles twitched, he couldn't manage his lacrimal gland muscles, tears began to flow down uncontrollably.

Then, there was a low voice in the corridor behind him: "Damn!"

He was so scared that he almost peed out.

And... what happened again?

Just when he felt that he was about to suffocate and faint under the suffocation of the stench and cold air, the expected cold air penetrated his nasal cavity, or he was bitten by the ghost, which did not happen.

Instead, he felt the sudden impact of gravel and gravel behind him. He lowered his eyes slightly, and saw many white things brushing past him and falling on the ground in front of him.

It took a long time to realize that it seemed to be glutinous rice.

Outside the door, Zhao Yin saw Master Zhang coming out of the bathroom, and vaguely saw something stuck behind the other party, so he jumped out from the security captain and rushed towards Zhang Tianshi with his hammer in hand.

That handful of glutinous rice was sprinkled by him after rushing out.

The sound of 'Fuck' was made by the security captain when he saw Zhao Yin swinging his hammer to greet the back of Master Zhang's head.

Liu Jun had long been stunned by the variables in front of him. He opened his mouth to scream, and the lights in Room 601 in front of him flickered violently.

Whenever the lights in 601 were dimmed, he seemed to see countless black shadows swaying in the room through the light in the corridor—far more than four shadows!

Whenever the light in 601 was turned on, he seemed to see a black shadow disappearing into the bright light.

Liu Jun's hands and feet were cold, and he took a few steps back unconsciously. Fear and sense of crisis overwhelmed his curiosity and kept him away from the door of Room 601.

On the other hand, Sun Li, the head of security, stared wide-eyed, looking at the room in astonishment—even though the flickering lights almost blinded his eyes.But he never blinked. I don't know if he was delusional or scared and forgot.

"Hu Lili, Qiu Xueqin..." Zihe followed closely behind Zhao Yin, reciting their names one by one. This time, he didn't read the names of the four who died first, but none of the remaining names were missing.

He seemed to have magical powers like reciting a spell. Every time he recited a name, the lights would flicker more intensely—as if there was some kind of magnetic field, and he was struggling crazily.

The glutinous rice was sprinkled on the ghosts, making the ghosts who wanted to escape quickly pause for an instant—but even this pause was only a second, and these ghosts could no longer escape Zihe's hunting.

Swinging the official hammer, when it hit the ghost, it encountered slight resistance.The ghost was also trembling from the beating—it was the delay of trembling, Zihe's name had already been called.

One by one, sitting in a row, waiting for Li Guizihe to roll his name.

In the rapidly flickering lights, there seemed to be black shadows rushing, and from time to time, the black shadows blocked the lights, making it dim even when it was on, and there were even shadows cast on the ground with teeth and claws, and then suddenly disappeared.

Blood suddenly oozes from the wall of the room, and then dries up quickly, turning into a dark brown streak that penetrates deeply into the wall.

Master Zhang felt an icy force suddenly thrusting into his nasal cavity, and a chill rushed to his brain, making his eyebrows and eyelashes frosty.

It disappeared suddenly again, leaving only an inexplicable chill and palpitations gripping his soul, his legs gave way, his body fell uncontrollably, hit the wall next to the entrance, and fell limp to the ground.

His whole body was stiff, only his fingers trembling unconsciously.

While reciting his name, Zihe rushed to the little boy Adou, hugged Adou into his arms, and made the little boy face himself and turn his back to all the fleeting and terrifying changes in the room.

He covered Adou's ears with both hands, while he kept his eyes slightly squinted, tilted his head up and sucked incessantly, and the name in his mouth had reached the end.

The hammer in Zhao Yin's hand glowed darkly, and when he stopped the last ghost from going into the wall with a hammer, Zihe finished saying the last name.

The crazily flickering lights in the room stopped suddenly, and the cold air seemed to be drained suddenly, and the moisture on the walls of 601 was quickly drained and disappeared.

The stench that had been lingering all day also suddenly disappeared.

The hammer in Zhao Yin's hand finally hit his side, and he turned his head to look at Zihe with some uncertainty——I don't know when, he seemed to have a little trust in the young man beside him.

And he himself, at this moment, has not noticed it yet.

Zihe nodded towards him and said affirmatively, "Okay."

He took a deep breath, and the long sleeves on his elbows hung down to cover the corpse spots that began to spread to his forearms—when the ghosts attacked him, it was impossible to guard against him, and his flesh would also be corroded and appear corpse spots.

Now this physical body is not good enough, it can only be used for about a month...

He had to completely cover his remnant soul in blood before the physical body completely stiffened and turned into a corpse, and then changed to a better physical body.

Looking inside his own soul, after ingesting all the ghosts in this room, his entire left calf was stained red.

The corner of his mouth pulled slightly, and then he let go of the little boy in his arms, a little unaccustomed to hugs and human warmth, he opened his arms trembling, quickly stood up and took a step back.

Zhao Yin silently glanced at the bewildered boy A Dou, and then at the back of Zihe who was shaking his hands and walking towards the window of the room without looking out of shape.

He pursed his lips, looking at the young man who had been pretending to be stupid in front of him since he met him, with a puzzled look in his eyes unconsciously.

——There seems to be a cloud of fog on this person.The closer you get, the more confusing it becomes.

And all he thought was, 'What kind of treasure is hidden in the iron box hidden in the brick under the window sill? 'Zihe didn't know what puzzles he had left for Xiaodie.

He just wanted to take a look, but he was interrupted by four ghosts before, but he couldn't take out the 'two corpses hugging the door' for himself.

Well, maybe more than just looking at...

The author has something to say: [Small Theater]

Zhang Tianshi's life was full of ups and downs... Then, he met his destiny 601, and two young people.

Just... uh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
