The streets in the distance are lit up, but in the old neighborhoods, there are only flickering lights. In normal times, I might think that this environment is unusually peaceful and beautiful, but now, this darkness brings only gloom to my heart.

After a closer look at Su Xue's home, although I felt that something was wrong, I couldn't tell what was wrong. Under the suspicious gazes of Su Xue and Shi Mengya, Zhang Ziming couldn't sit still anymore.

After a moment of hesitation, he offered that we go out to the neighborhood together to see if we can find a gathering place for yin energy, find the ghost, and use the broken coffin hairpin to collect its grievances.

I agreed to Zhang Ziming's suggestion almost without hesitation, but how can the five of us find it? Zhang Ziming and I are both people who have learned Taoism, so we can all stand alone, if we divide into two ways, it will naturally speed up the search progress, so when I made this suggestion, Zhang Ziming also immediately agreed.

Dead Dog had been with me for a long time, so as soon as it came to the grouping, he immediately sided with me without hesitation. Su Xue also wanted to follow me, but as soon as she stood beside me, she suddenly thought of something, hesitated for a moment and said, "You guys should look for it separately, I'm a little afraid of seeing ghosts." There is another reason......"

She felt scared, it was a normal reaction, but what else was she hiding from us? I looked at her suspiciously, Su Xue pointed to the wall calendar on the wall, and said in a slur manner: "Look at today's day, it was the day when the black-clothed neighbor upstairs made an appointment with me, that is, today, his wife will come back." I promised him that I would give the keys to his house to his wife. ”

Everyone looked at Su Xue in unison, and Su Xue lowered her head with a slightly red face. When I saw her look, my mind turned, and I kind of understood what she meant.

Maybe she was really afraid of encountering ghosts again, and as I said, there was nothing unusual in this house, so she didn't dare to follow us out to find ghosts under the pretext that she had to wait for someone to give her the key.

Although I understand her thoughts, the lies of the beautiful woman naturally cannot be exposed. Not only can't you expose it, but you have to lie to her. So, after a little thought, I casually rebated a few nonsense words that I didn't believe in myself, and agreed to let her stay at home.

In this way, it solves the problem of uneven distribution of personnel. Zhang Ziming and I can each bring one person, so that everyone can cheer each other up and be brave.

However, if the dead dog pesters me, then wouldn't Shi Mengya have to follow Zhang Ziming? This is a result that I would never want. I put on a straight face and said expressionlessly: "Dead dog, you can't follow me today, you have to be in a group with Zhang Ziming." ”

Zhang Ziming was already happy, and he was secretly looking at Shi Mengya from the corner of his eyes, as soon as my words came out, he undoubtedly poured a big basin of cold water on his head, he looked at me in disappointment and didn't say a word.

The dead dog said with a hippie smile: "Ling Sen, we are also old partners, wouldn't it be better for me to follow you?" Hehe, you kid, I've already seen it, you're a heavy color and a light friend! Forget it, I'm still familiar with each other, let you follow Miss Shi! ”

Shi Mengya's face flushed slightly, and she walked to my side a little shyly. Zhang Ziming seemed to have suddenly realized, there was no longer unhappiness and embarrassment on his face, and he grinned and said, "Haha, it turns out that the famous flower has a master?" Partnering with a beautiful woman is naturally a happy thing in life, why don't you say it earlier, otherwise you will almost let me do it. ”

I felt proud, but I also felt a little hot on my face. In order to hide my embarrassment, I deliberately said seriously: "What are you two talking nonsense? What is Shi Mengya's identity? How can I think otherwise? I tell you, you two are so obscene, if you dare to use your brains, see that I don't break your dog's legs. ”

Zhang Ziming and the dead dog both laughed, and from their laughter, I felt more and more embarrassed. Naturally, I'm not afraid that they will make fun of me, but I'm worried that if they say this, Shi Mengya will be disgusted with me, after all, I don't know if I have a place in her mind.

I peeked at Shi Mengya, but I felt that her cheeks were red, and although her expression was shy, it didn't look twisted. I cleared my throat and made an excuse, "What do you two know?" I've already calculated just now, today's unitary time is fierce, snake and rabbit hedge. And I and the dead dog are precisely these two genera, so we can't be together. ”

The dead dog suddenly let out an 'oh' and said no more. Zhang Ziming looked at me with a smile and occasionally made a grimace. Of course, I know in my heart that this guy is also a person who has learned the Tao, so he naturally knows that my excuse just now is not valid, but he is a smart person, and he will not debunk my poor excuse.

The four of us were divided into two roads, and we agreed to take Su Xue's building as the middle line and inspect along the north and south roads.

I took Shi Mengya with me and searched unhurriedly along the northern line. As I focused, I could feel a ghostly aura wafting not far away. But this ghost is so ethereal that I can't always locate its exact position.

Maybe it's not that my Taoism is really bad, maybe it's because I can't concentrate all the time! Shi Mengya was nervous and scared, and she kept holding my arm tightly. I felt her body temperature and tremble, and my mind had already begun to think about it, this originally eerie and terrifying old-fashioned community, in my eyes at the moment, is simply heavenly, and Shi Mengya and I are like a couple walking slowly in the paradise garden.

I don't know how long I turned like this, but suddenly, a voice sounded behind me urgently, startling both me and Shi Mengya.

I turned my head sharply and saw the dead dog and Zhang Ziming quietly appearing in front of us. They stared at me with a wicked smile on their faces, but they didn't say a word.

I complained, "Hey! What do you two mean? Didn't you say that you should inspect the southern part of the community? How did you get here? ”

Before they could answer, I said dissatisfiedly, "You guys, don't do your own thing, and you actually appear behind us sneakily like this." Don't you know I'm looking for evil spirits? Like you, I didn't kill the ghosts, and I had to scare you to death. ”

Shi Mengya also complained a few words of dissatisfaction at this time, and Zhang Ziming said with a hippie smile: "Miss Shi, I and the dead dog have inspected the south twice, and we haven't found anything abnormal. When I saw that you hadn't moved, I wondered if this evil ghost was hiding in the north of the community, and I couldn't worry about you two, so I rushed over. ”

The dead dog also chimed in: "That's it, what kind of world, it's really good to be repaid." Zhang Ziming and I saw the two of you walking together, and without saying a word, we have been waiting patiently for you for a long time, just because I was worried that Su Xue would have an accident upstairs alone, so I forced Zhang Ziming to come out together and stop the two of you. ”
