Chapter 5: The Murderous House
"You have a point. The mission gave us a safe period of free time, and it was supposed to encourage us to explore our surroundings more. It's a pity that there are two people less, otherwise there are more people, and there should be more that can be found. When Lu Qing thought of Luo Yike and Yuan Ye, he couldn't help but have a little headache.
"It's okay, they love to die, just let them go." Li Wenqiao didn't care: "Those two wastes, even if they go to check the clues, it is estimated that they will not be able to find any valuable news." Let's hurry up, it's dark for a while, and there won't be many people outside. ”
Several people finished eating in a hurry, and then called the waiter to pay. "Little brother, I'll ask you about something." Lu Qing stuffed more money into the waiter's hand when he was paying: "How about the Lijingyuan community opposite?" My girlfriend and I inquired at the agency and were planning to rent a room in the neighborhood recently. ”
The waiter collected the money and became a lot more enthusiastic: "You are all from other places, right?" I can tell you," he said, looking around and lowering his voice, "Don't rent a house in Lai King Court, it's a famous haunted area around here, and it's very haunted. The agents are all unaware outsiders and foreigners who deceive you, but I heard that even if there are tenants who live in, most of them will move out after not staying for long. ”
"Is there such a thing?" Lu Qing put on a surprised expression: "Then have you heard that anything strange has happened in Lijingyuan recently?" The restaurant was not busy at this time, so the waiter simply sat down.
"If you want to talk about the strange things that have happened in Lijingyuan, it is too much. Especially 30 years ago, there was a tragic incident. A pair of sisters and their mother who lived there were hacked to death, and the killers were later caught. But after the case was solved, the people who lived there often saw the figure of the woman at night, and the cry of the woman was always heard near the room where the murder occurred...... This incident alarmed the government, and ordered the haunted house to be sealed with cement, but to no avail. This trouble has been going on for decades, and there have been many murders during this period, just last month, a few people came to the radio station to go to the building to film. ”
Speaking of this, the waiter sighed: "If you want to say that these people are also bold, one host and two cameras went in by themselves, and the other colleagues waited outside for a long time and didn't wait." Afterwards, they plucked up the courage to go into the building and call the security guards, and a few people went up to look for them, but these three people had already evaporated from the world, and I saw that they must have encountered ghosts. ”
"Then do you know which building is the most haunted in Lijing Garden?" Although Qian Jie already had the answer in her heart, she still had the last trace of fantasy.
"Hmm...... When I think about it, it looks like Building 14! That's right, isn't 14 homophony just going to die? It's really unlucky. The building that the waiter was talking about was also the apartment specified in the mission.
"Zhiwei, you're lazy again! Come and check out yet! The boss's urging voice startled him, and the waiter smiled apologetically at them before leaving his seat in a panic.
"Let's go, let's go and ask someone else." Lu Qing stood up, and then several other people also stood up and walked out. "Wen Qiao, what's wrong with you?" Lu Qing noticed that Li Wenqiao looked down at his phone, and his whole person was already distracted.
"Brother Qing, I have an impression of the murder case mentioned by the waiter just now." Her face was as white as white paper: "Didn't he say that the government had ordered the murderous house to be sealed with cement?" According to my report, the place where the murder occurred was on the second floor......"
According to Li Wenqiao, there should only be three families on the second floor, but Lu Qing also clearly remembered that the second floor he saw at that time obviously had four rooms!
The worst ones are, of course, Qian Jie and Li Wenqiao, because the space arranged them on the second floor.
"Is there a room number in the report that says the murder house?" Lu Qing asked.
"No, I've checked a lot of news, and it's just a vague mention of the second floor. You said that the house we live in will be the murderous house that has disappeared? Li Wenqiao asked a little weakly.
"Don't think about it so much yet, let's go around and ask around." Lu Qing helped her up, and at this time, Li Wenqiao's hands and feet were cold, and the whole person was in a very tense state. "It's okay, I'll live upstairs from you. If there's something calling me, don't forget, I still have props. I promised you that I would do my best to protect you. Lu Qing held her shoulders, looked at her helpless eyes, and comforted firmly.
After feeling the scorching heat on her shoulders, she raised her head and met Lu Qing's calm eyes. Lu Qing always exudes an inexplicable power of reassurance and trust, and under his influence, Li Wenqiao also calmed down. Two small blush appeared on her beautiful face, and when she thought of the last sentence that Lu Qing said just now: I will try my best to protect you, her cheeks also began to burn.
The other people walked to the door and found that the two did not follow, so Tang Tian turned around and shouted, "Lu Qing, Wen Qiao, what's wrong with you?" "It's coming! I just forgot to take my phone. Lu Qing responded, and then leaned into Li Wenqiao's ear and whispered: "Don't tell Qian Jie about the second floor first, her mentality is easily affected." ”
"Well, it's a good ......" Lu Qing's breath full of male hormones filled his ears, Li Wenqiao only felt that his heart was beating faster, and something was wrong with his whole person. And Lu Qing didn't pay attention to this, he just thought that Li Wenqiao was too scared, so he held Li Wenqiao's hand encouragingly: "Let's go quickly." Li Wenqiao was obediently led by him like this, and at this moment, she looked at Lu Qing's clean and slender back, and the whole person was in a trance.
Several people walked around Lai King Court, and asked the staff of the nearby newsstand and convenience store for a lot of news, and it seems that what the waiter said was indeed right, this Lai King Court is indeed one of the famous murder houses in Hong Kong. It was already completely dark, and there were many fewer pedestrians on the road. A few people were just about to cross the street and go back, but they saw two thugs on the street, surrounding an old woman's stall.
Lu Qing and the others stepped forward, only to find that this old woman was a goddess, and it seemed that she should be "beating the villain". This is a major feature of Hong Kong's roadside, if you have watched early Hong Kong dramas, you must be familiar with the word "villain".
Most Hong Kong people are very superstitious, if they feel that there are many things going wrong in life, or suspect that there are villains to do so, they will "hit the villain" on the day of the sting, you can fight yourself, or you can ask a professional goddess to fight on your behalf, the purpose is to drive away the villain and usher in the nobleman. Such a traditional custom has been passed down to this day, and the villain around him is not approached to hurt himself by beating the villain.
And these two gangsters are obviously finding fault. Among them, he scolded and scolded, but he didn't like it, so he raised his foot and prepared to kick at Grandma. However, he didn't succeed, he only felt a pain in his waist, and he was kicked from behind and fell to the ground.
"Which unsightly person dares to provoke me?" The thug got up from the ground and saw a slender young man standing behind him. "You want to die, don't you?" With that, he swung his fist at the man. Lu Qing smiled contemptuously, then hit the gangster in the stomach with a heavy punch, followed by a sweeping leg that kicked him to the ground. The other gangster saw that there were two women and a man behind Lu Qing, and he couldn't beat Lu Qing, so he pulled his accomplices and fled in embarrassment.
"Grandma, are you alright?" Li Wenqiao couldn't see the old man suffering the most, and she was brought up by her grandmother since she was a child, and she was even more distressed when she saw the scene in front of her. She took out all the money from her bosom and stuffed it into the old man's hand: "It's late now, you can call it a day and go back." You take the money. ”
"What a good girl!" The old man took a small triangular talisman worn in red thread from the stall and stuffed it into her hand: "This is a peace talisman I made, specially for peace, you can keep it." Li Wenqiao didn't shirk either, and said with a smile: "This talisman you made is very exquisite, I like it very much." With that, he put it on. Although in the space, these ordinary charms, peach wood swords and other exorcism items could not play any role, Li Wenqiao did not want to refuse the old man's kindness.
"By the way, girl, I see the direction you are taking, do you live in Lijingyuan?" The old man asked suddenly. "Well, my friend and I just moved in." Li Wenqiao said honestly.
The old man's face was heavy: "I see that several of you have a heavy black gas on your faces, and the fierce qi is entwined around you, I am afraid that you will be worried about your life in the next few days." ”
