15. Tangled

Qiu Ye took a sip of water from a thermos cup again, looked at me and said, "As the saying goes, when you enter the door, you are a guest, I should pour saliva for you to drink, but you, a stinky boy, dare to break my glass." You're breaking my rules, if I don't bear to see you go out and die, hum......"

I looked at the time on my phone, and sure enough, it was already 12 o'clock in the morning.

It was only ten o'clock when we entered this building, and we went up the stairs before we could think of it, and then listened to Qiu Ye tell a story, and it was already twelve o'clock.

Where did the time go?

To tell the truth, although Qiu Ye has saved us now, isn't this calm old man full of suspicions? Why is he barely a shadow? Why does his lantern pierce through the darkness? Why does he know so many things? Especially his big cabinet...... It's midnight, and I reckon there's at least six hours left until dawn.

If I want to stay in this room and sit opposite Qiu Ye and his cabinet until dawn, then how much mental pressure I have to bear. Even if there is Lao Zhang next to him, it is not useful.

Lao Zhang saw that I was stunned, and asked urgingly: "What should I do, Boss Xu?" ”

I calmed down, swallowed my saliva, and said to Lao Zhang: "If you really will die, I'm afraid you will also die." Instead of scaring yourself to death, why not just go and bump into each other? There is a good saying: 'If you want to die to the sky, you will become a fairy without dying'. ”

Qiu Ye suddenly stood up and said, "There is a person who died in this building today, don't you know?" ”

Lao Zhang was almost mobilized by my enthusiasm, but was suddenly interrupted by Qiu Ye, and he asked tremblingly: "Today is ...... again Another one died? ”

Qiu Ye said: "Yes, it's a food delivery." Shortly before you came, the people in the hospital and the bureau had finished handling the scene, and it was about nine o'clock in the evening that the funeral home took the body away. ”

When he doesn't seem to tell a story, he is easily confused, saying, "No wonder you say that you are delivering food, which makes me always feel like I am missing something...... Yes, someone died in the afternoon. Dead at the door of 2-04. ”

I said, "The corridor of this building is very dark during the day, and the things in the corridor are piled up in a disorderly manner, and there are bad people hiding here to rob and kill people...... It's not that as long as someone dies, it's related to female ghosts, right? ”

Qiu Ye seemed to be a little impatient with me, and said, "Good words are hard to persuade damn ghosts, if you kid think so, I have nothing to say." ”

Lao Zhang saw that the relationship between me and Qiu Ye was gradually cooling, and he wanted to persuade Qiu Ye in the middle, and wanted to say something to him, but he was in a dilemma for a while.

I said decisively: "Master Qiu, you saved us today, and I don't know how to break the window." Say goodbye tonight, and thank you another day. ”

When the enemy saw me say this, his originally cold face no longer looked at us, and said, "It is my own good idea that I saved you, and I only blame myself for leading the wolf into the house." He sighed again, "If you want to stay until dawn, sit in the chairs in peace, and if you want to go, I won't stop you." If you are really a gangster, I will not be able to stop you from taking all my possessions away tonight. I'm old and can't stay with me anymore. ”

After Qiu Ye finished speaking, he ignored us, took off his shoes directly, and lay down on the bed with his clothes closed.

I looked around the room and found nothing that could be called "property."

Who knew that Qiu Ye, who had just lay down, scolded violently and sat up straight!

We were startled by him, thinking that it was a living person's corpse, only to see him look at me resentfully, then he took off his coat and folded the pillow behind his head before falling back asleep.

That's when we remembered that our pillow had been used to block the window.

Qiu Ye pulled up the quilt and slept with his face against the wall, which meant that he would no longer pay attention to us.

I shook the millennium pillow in my hand at Lao Zhang and asked, "Lao Zhang, what do you say?" ”

Lao Zhang looked like he wanted to cry without tears, and said, "What can I say...... Why don't you call Uncle Ma up? ”

"Call a yarn, and then open the window to slander you, I don't care." I stabilized my mind and said, "Leave everything else down and leave it alone, let's hurry up and deliver takeaways." ”

"Really?" Lao Zhang's legs trembled.

I ignored Lao Zhang, walked directly to the bedside of Qiu Ye, and said softly and respectfully: "Qiu Ye, since you saved us with good intentions, we entered your door, and we should abide by your rules according to reason. ”

Qiu Ye didn't move, covered his head and said angrily: "If there is a fart, release it quickly." ”

I said, "I have one more thing to ask for." ”

Seeing that he didn't answer, I had no choice but to say, "We want to borrow your lantern for use, do you think it's okay?" ”

Qiu Ye's white lantern must have a mystery, he is holding the lantern to show us the way, of course, provided that we first use the peeing method to break the ghost and hit the wall. But my instincts tell me that his lantern is not simple. In this eerie hallway, it is obviously much better to use that lantern than our mobile phones to illuminate.

Qiu Ye still didn't show his head, and said, "Don't even think about it." That lantern is my life, and if you want to see me die, take it. ”

Isn't this tone a bit of a stinging one?

But although I'm a little impulsive and want to take it, but after all, I can't force people to make it difficult, Qiu Ye said it like this, and it will be a bit of a bully for me to take it again.

I couldn't, so I had to say, "Okay, the so-called great kindness is not grateful, and we will come to visit your old man again in the future." Then let's go first. ”

I said to Lao Zhang again, "Let's go." ”

Lao Zhang said: "Why don't you tie the paper man to you...... You go ...... in the head."

I hurriedly waved my hand and said, "I'm not afraid, the main uncle's orders are ahead, and the paper binding people have to be tied up to be useful." Lao Zhang, think about it, since we're all here, what else is there to think about? Brother, listen to me, let's just deliver a takeaway, deliver it and leave. As long as it can be delivered on time, there is no customer who is embarrassed by the delivery staff. If the goods are not right, the customer will find the merchant by themselves. ”

Lao Zhang seemed to be moved by me again, but he was instantly deflated again, and Lao Zhang said with a sad face: "But our customers are not ordinary......"

"Who is ordering food, is it still the turn of the two of us to deliver food?" After I finished speaking, I motioned for Lao Zhang to set off.

Lao Zhang thought about it for a while, and this is also the truth: "Okay." Let's go. ”

He said he walked, but he obviously couldn't take a step under his feet. I instructed, "Do you remember what Uncle Ma said? Just as an ordinary courier, the other party did not open the door, hung the door, let's go. It's as simple as that. Do you understand? After all, I came once during the day, and trust me, the door really didn't open when I came. ”

Lao Zhang nodded, I was about to open the door, and when I held the old-fashioned lock button, I only heard the voice behind me: "Remember, you must go out by yourself, and I can't control your life and death when you go out." Remember to close the door for me. After you go out, no matter what happens tonight, my door will not be opened again. ”

I saw that Lao Zhang's expression was about to be affected again, so I hurriedly said to him, "Go." ”

Immediately, I opened the door......
