The knock on the door sounded crisp and powerful without hurry, and after three knocks of "Knock~Knock~Knock", there was silence outside the door. The nerves of the security guards suddenly became inexplicably tense, and a kind of unknown fear enveloped everyone. No one walked to the door of the lounge, and in the silence of everyone, the security captain opened his mouth, and he asked loudly, "Who?" Who's knocking on the door outside? Speak! ”

There was no answer outside the door, and there was still a dead silence. The security captain didn't believe his ears, walked a few steps to the door, leaned against the door and asked, "Who is outside?" Speak! Who? ”

There was still no response outside the door, and the knock on the door just now was like a collective hallucination of everyone. Everyone looked at each other motionlessly, and when they were at a loss, the big bell in the hall of "Bell~Bell~Bell" suddenly rang. It happened to ring three times without more or less, and the time was exactly 12 o'clock in the evening.

Suddenly, everyone involuntarily shivered, and they seemed to feel that the temperature in the room was lower. The security captain pretended to be calm and said to the gate: "Damn, who is pretending to be a ghost for Lao Tzu outside?" Hurry up, I don't believe it, I. . . ”

Before the words were finished, the strange knock on the door sounded again, and "Knock~Knock~Knock" was a crisp and powerful three times, which frightened the security captain and took a step back. Everyone was also stunned, and seeing that the people under him were looking at him, the security captain forced himself and said, "Speak, who's outside?" Hurry up! ”

Outside, there was still a dead silence, and everyone was muttering, but they didn't dare to step forward and open the door.

The security captain pretended to be indifferent and said, "You are afraid of wool, there are so many of us, what are you afraid of?" Go, you go and open the door! ”

The security guard who was named shook his head again and again and retreated, and the security captain scolded angrily, so he could only shout for the other to open the door, but the person still refused. "Knock~Knock~Knock" The strange knock on the door sounded again, like calling the people in the house.

At this time, the security captain was already difficult to ride in front of everyone, and finally the eldest ninth uncle stood up. Because of his previous livelihood, he dealt with the dead a lot, and originally this kind of scene could not make Uncle Nine afraid, but with the horror legend of the building, the low temperature of the air conditioner, the unanswered phone calls, etc., the atmosphere of that night became extraordinarily permeable, and even Uncle Nine, who had seen the funeral world, began to drum in his heart.

He knew that "three" was a very important number in Chinese culture, and that people used to believe that "the Tao stands in one, life in two, two in life and three, and three in all things." ”

The explanation of this statement is that the chaotic primordial world, its existence as a whole is one, and then from this primordial chaotic one, the two poles of heaven and earth are divided. And the "two" in the two poles of heaven and earth gave birth to man, this third part. Then, the three of heaven, earth and man evolved into the entire universe.

Therefore, in Taoism, the highest-level Yuan Shen is the "Three Qings", that is, the Yuan Shi, the Lingbao and the Moral Tianzun, and the highest state that a person can cultivate is the unity of essence, qi and spirit. Therefore, the ancients called Feng Shui Kanyu, that is, Kan (observing the sky), Yu (surveying the earth), Feng (air space), water (hydrology and water quality), and earth (topography and geology) (research and analysis theory).

Among them, the ancients mentioned a word for the three evils, which is a professional term in Feng Shui, and is also a collective name for calamity, calamity, and year. Uncle Nine knew that according to the feudal superstition in ancient times, these three so-called gods would change their positions every year according to certain rules.

Uncle Nine also unintentionally calculated tonight that the location of the three evils in Nanyang City this year is exactly the ugly year in the east, that is, the Yin Maochen side. In other words, people can understand that the location of the gate and the location of the building of Yongji Group are exactly the location of this year's Sansha in Nanyang City.

To put it more simply, it's easy to have an accident in this position, and it's a very bad thing. Therefore, Uncle Jiu did not stand up at the first time and open the door for others, but it was a blessing or a curse, and he couldn't avoid it, so he didn't understand a little taboo, so he stepped forward and opened the door hesitantly.

The door opened, but it was empty, and several people mustered up the courage to rush to the door, only to find that the hallway was also empty. The angry security captain, standing in the corridor, shouted loudly: "Who pretended to be a ghost for Lao Tzu? Come out! Hurry up and get out of here! Come out! ”

Angry voices echoed through the hallways, and no one appeared except for the lingering echoes. Seeing such a strange scene, the security guards were suddenly afraid, originally at this time, it was just the time for them to inspect the floor, but the strange knock in front of them made everyone dare not go out.

The night outside the window was very dark, everyone froze at the door of the lounge, and suddenly the security captain seemed to remember a life-saving charm, grabbed Uncle Nine's hand and said, "Uncle Nine, this, this can't be unclean, right?" I'm superstitious, right? ”

Everyone knows that Uncle Nine used to guard the coffin shop, knew a lot of strange taboos, and would deal with some mysterious things, so they would all look at him with blank eyes. The security guards were not very well educated, and it was difficult for them to insist on believing in Marxist materialism in the same way as highly educated people.

Uncle Jiu had a dark face, thought for a while, and then nodded and said, "Captain, this matter may not be so simple, we still can't believe in some feudal superstitions in the Yongji Building in Nanyang City." When I was in the countryside, I did hear that someone could knock on the door and scare some of the villagers, but it wasn't that it was unclean, but that some people would say something wrong. ”

"Evil crooked? What kind of evil door can knock on the door in the air? ”

"Uncle Nine, tell me quickly, what's going on?"

"Yes, Uncle Nine, this atmosphere tonight is too permeating, hurry up and tell me, we all believe you!"

The security guards opened their mouths one after another, vying to ask, Uncle Nine thought for a while, and then said: "There are some charlatans in the countryside, they can make some colorless and odorless special medicinal powders, and apply those medicinal powders on the doors of other people's houses, so as to lure some small animals to knock on the door and scare people, such as luring bats, crows, and so on." ”

When the security captain heard this, he shouted: "I want to see which little rabbit cub is playing tricks in this building, don't let Lao Tzu catch it!" ”

A security guard said timidly: "Uncle Jiu, but we are here in Yongji Building, there is the best security system in the building, it is impossible for small animals to sneak in, could it be that it is not clean?" ”
