Chapter 269: Jianguo West Road
With the support of the Xuankong Gold Plate, the two of them never heard any strange noises that night, and slept peacefully until the next morning.
Su Qiubai got up early, and after washing, he found that Shu Jingrou was still asleep, and his head suddenly became a little big.
This beauty swore last night that she would take herself to see the fire site today, but it was almost nine o'clock, and she was still asleep unconscious, and sure enough, the beauty was unreliable.
Su Qiubai was embarrassed to wake her up, so she turned on the TV boredly. This time, the shopping advertisement changed to sell foot baths, and the two hosts were foaming at the mouth and boasting about their products, and Su Qiubai, who was watching it, almost fell asleep again.
After more than an hour, Shu Jingrou finally opened her eyes with a blank face, and when she saw Su Qiubai sitting on the bed, she suddenly felt sleepy, and sat up with a "poof", and covered her body with a quilt, looking like she was light.
Su Qiubai looked at her movements with an innocent face, it was obvious that she had to come to sleep with her yesterday, why did she seem to have treated her now.
After Shu Jingrou finished this series of actions, she finally remembered what happened last night, and immediately put down the quilt embarrassedly, and said, "I'm sorry, I forgot that I was in your room for a while." I have a problem with this person, my brain is blank when I wake up. ”
Su Qiubai naturally didn't care about this trivial matter, smiled and said: "Let's not worry about these problems, it's ten o'clock now, didn't you say that you would take me to see the fire scene?" ”
Shu Jingrou remembered this again, slapped her head suddenly, jumped out of bed, and ran back to her room to wash.
Su Qiubai couldn't help laughing, it seems that this beauty's memory is really not very good, she originally thought she was a literary young woman, but now it seems that she is not what she thinks at all.
Half an hour later, Shu Jingrou appeared at Su Qiubai's door in full gear, Su Qiubai had already prepared, and left the hotel with Shu Jingrou with her bag.
After leaving the hotel, Shu Jingrou stretched out her hand to stop a taxi, and after getting in the car, she said to the driver: "Go to Jianguo West Road." ”
After hearing this, the driver glanced at the two of them, with some surprise in his eyes, and then asked: "I don't think you two are like locals, forgive me for asking more, what are you doing there?" ”
Shu Jingrou rolled her eyes and said casually: "Go see a friend." ”
The driver didn't ask any more questions, and after the two got in the car, they set off for Jianguo West Road.
Along the way, the driver kept looking like he wanted to talk and stopped, and finally couldn't help but say: "It's not that I'm nosy, but there is something I think I need to tell you." The area around Jianguo West Road...... It's not very clean, if you don't have anything important, it's better to go there less and let your friends move out as soon as possible, that area is really too evil, we locals generally don't like to go there. ”
Su Qiubai saw that the driver also knew something about this matter, so he asked casually, "Is it?" What kind of evil method? ”
Seeing that he was interested in this matter, the driver immediately opened the conversation box and said endlessly: "You may not know that there was a major incident in our Yinchang nineties, a fire burned half of the city, and the source of the fire was in the area of Jianguo West Road. The fire killed thousands of people, all trapped in the fire in their sleep, unable to escape, and it was really terrible to hear that the whole city echoed with heart-rending screams that night. After that, the place where the fire was burned was not very clean, and other places were fine, at most, the people who lived there were prone to some bad luck or something, but Jianguo West Road was very evil, and at night you could always hear the sound of someone screaming and crying, and the wind was gusting, and the residents there could move away a long time ago, and they might not even be able to save their lives if they left late. Most of those who stayed really didn't have the money to move out, so it is now a famous slum in the city, and the environment is very poor. ”
Speaking of this, the driver suddenly realized that he had said the wrong thing, and hurriedly added: "Don't be surprised, I didn't mean to speak ill of your friend, it's just that the whole city knows about this situation." ”
Where would the two of them mind this, because their so-called friend was simply made up.
Listening to the driver's description, the reason why that place is so evil is obviously because the ghosts of the people who died tragically back then are still there and refuse to leave, which is not difficult to understand, they are all innocent people who died in vain, and it is inevitable that they will be resentful. And there are so many deaths, this grievance is not a joke, and Su Qiubai may not be sure that he can solve the matter here.
"To be honest, if I have enough financial ability, let alone Jianguo West Road, I don't want to stay in this Yinchang City. I don't know if it's my delusion, but I've always felt that the city is eerie everywhere, especially in the last two years, and this feeling has become more and more obvious. I advise you, it's better to come to this place less if it's okay. The driver continued.
Su Qiubai knew that he was kind enough to persuade him, so he thanked him, and in order not to scare him, he didn't tell him that the unjust soul of Jianguo West Road had indeed begun to affect the whole city.
It didn't take long for the taxi to come to the intersection of Jianguo West Road, and after Su Qiubai paid and got out of the car, the driver ran away with a kick on the accelerator, it seems that he is really afraid of this place.
Su Qiubai glanced forward and found that there was no fire here, but the architectural style was still the same as in the nineties, and it looked like it had not been repaired for many years, and it looked a little dilapidated.
At that time, it was supposed to be a main road in the city, and the road was very wide, but now it is so depressed that even the green belt has not been trimmed for a long time, which adds a bit of decline.
Most of the shops on both sides of the road are closed, and it looks like they have been closed for a long time, except for a few convenience stores and small shops selling daily necessities that are still open, and the shopkeepers are sitting lazily at the counters, looking unrefreshed.
Sure enough, as the driver said, the depression is terrible, and there are not many people walking on the street, all of them look listless and decadent.
The feng shui and aura of a place also have an impact on people's spirits, and these people have been shrouded in resentment for a long time, and it is already a fateful person to be alive.
At this time, the time was close to noon, and it was the time when the yang energy was at its heaviest, so Su Qiubai didn't feel anything for the time being, but as soon as he stepped into the range of Jianguo West Road, he noticed that there was obviously something wrong with the aura here. Although the unjust souls have not come out, the feng shui momentum here has long been destroyed under the influence of resentment for many years, and even without those unjust souls, it will not be able to recover in a short time.
"How's it going, have you found anything?" Shu Jingrou asked Su Qiubai in a low voice, as if she was afraid of alarming those dead souls.
Su Qiubai nodded, and then shook his head again.
"What do you mean by nodding and shaking your head?" Shu Jingrou asked puzzled.
"It's certain that there is a problem here, but I don't have a clue where the specific problem is and how to solve it." Su Qiubai replied truthfully.
Shu Jingrou had already regarded Su Qiubai as a half-immortal at this time, so she said: "How can it be solved immediately at a glance, although I don't understand your business, but I have written a lot of novels, and I also know that the matter of exorcism has to be gradual and urgent." ”
Su Qiubai looked at her with a smile and said, "What do you call our business?" Who do you think of me? ”
Shu Jingrou blinked innocent eyes and said, "Aren't you the kind I often write about in my novels...... Ghost hunters and the like! ”
Su Qiubai almost burst out laughing when he heard this, and hurriedly explained: "I'm not a master, I just happen to know a little bit of yin and yang techniques, and it's not certain whether I can solve the problem here." ”
Shu Jingrou only thought that he was modest, so she didn't tear him down, but smiled meaningfully.
Su Qiubai had no choice but to continue walking.
When he came to the door of a community, Su Qiubai suddenly felt a cold wind blowing, so he turned his head to look at the community, and saw that the name of this community was Xiangyang Community, which was a five-story unit building, and the building was already very old, presumably it had not been repaired since it was rebuilt in the nineties.
Shu Jingrou saw that he noticed this community, so she took out a notebook from her backpack, which was full of information about the Yinchang fire incident, she glanced at the record of the Xiangyang community, and then explained: "Before the fire, the Xiangyang community was here, and after the reconstruction, the original name is still used, but there are not many residents who have moved back, after all, this is the fire center, and there are very few people who survive." After that, many houses were sold, but in less than a year, the people who lived here died, they went crazy, and most of the other people who survived moved away. Although there are many people living here now, most of them are because the rent is cheap, and the driver is right, this place is now a slum. ”
Su Qiubai nodded and walked directly into the gate of the community. The cold wind he had just noticed was actually the yin qi from this community, it seemed that the resentment here was much heavier than other places, and the people who dared to live here were so courageous.
The stairs in the community are a little close, which looks narrow, not to mention, and blocks a lot of light, as if the already not bright community looks even darker.
Su Qiubai swept the surroundings with his divine sense, and found that there was a faint layer of black qi shrouded in each building, that is, the yin qi that had accumulated all year round, and under the influence of this yin qi, the health of the residents in the building should not be too good.
Su Qiubai picked a building with the heaviest yin qi and said to Shu Jingrou: "I'll go up and have a look, if you're afraid, stay here and wait for me." ”
Where would Shu Jingrou let go of this opportunity for a field trip? If she came alone, she might really dare not go up because she was afraid, but with Su Qiubai, the "master", by her side at this time, she would not be afraid.
As soon as the two of them entered the door, they suddenly felt a little colder, Shu Jingrou rubbed her hands and said, "As soon as I entered the door just now, I felt so uncomfortable, how bold are the people who can live here." ”
Su Qiubai didn't answer, but walked directly upstairs, the layout of this building is east and west, on the way upstairs, he paid attention to every door, and found that there were people living in it.
When I went up to the third floor, one of the houses happened to open the door, and out of the room came an old man, hunched over, with clear wrinkles and furrows on his face, and he looked to be over seventy years old.
The old man's cloudy eyes were full of a blank look, he glanced up at Su Qiubai, and after putting the garbage bag in his hand at the door, he was about to close the door and go back.
Su Qiubai stopped the door that the old man was about to close, and said, "Old man, wait a minute!" ”
