Chapter Forty-Eight: There Are No Ghost Incidents
This morning, Long Daoling hadn't gotten up yet, and in a daze, he heard the sound of pipa playing outside the room, the sound of the pipa was as crisp as flowing water, and it was so beautiful to play and intoxicating.
At this time, Long Daoling sat up from the bed, looking energetic, perhaps this pipa sound also has the effect of eliminating physical and mental fatigue, he slowly walked out of the door, only to see a pipa ghost in green clothes sitting by the window on the third floor, lightly took out a pipa, slender fingers on the pipa back and forth, a burst of clear sound came, the beautiful rhythm is like with a kind of contagion, spread all around.
After a song, Long Daoling couldn't help but applaud, and the pipa ghost saw that Long Daoling was standing in front of him enjoying his playing, and said with a smile: "Ghost master, did my pipa sound wake you up?" β
"No, your lute sound is very good, you can listen to a song in the morning, it makes people energetic, if you can, it's better to do it every day, that's very good." Long Dao Ling responded.
The pipa ghost nodded with a smile and said, "As long as the ghost master likes it, it's just a gesture." β
Long Daoling also walked to the first floor with a happy mood, the cook ghost had already prepared breakfast for him, and was putting breakfast on the table, after seeing him come down, he smiled and said, "Ghost master, it's time to have breakfast." β
Long Dao Ling went straight to the dining table and sat down, since moving here to live with the hundred ghosts, he has lived a life like an aristocracy, being served by a large group of ghosts, this feeling is beyond the experience.
After breakfast, he walked to his office area as usual and began to check the news and the information on the homepage, at this time, there were unfamiliar footsteps outside the door, as if business had come to the door.
A middle-aged man with a fat head and big ears, a gold chain, and a wealthy man came to the door of the office, rang the doorbell, and Xiaoqing in the house immediately walked out when he heard the sound and greeted him politely.
After a while, the middle-aged man followed Xiaoqing into the hall of the office, however, the man seemed to be very polite, and kept shouting: "What the hell is this place, the location is so remote, I have been looking for it for a long time." β
At this time, Xiaoqing also hurriedly said to Long Daoling: "Ghost master, this guest is here to find you. β
Long Daoling nodded, didn't take this man's words to heart, and said to him with a smile: "Sir, do you have any entrustment?" β
The middle-aged man looked at Long Daoling, pointed at him very rudely and said, "Who is that, are you the boss of this firm, you are so young, can you do it?" β
After hearing this, Long Daoling also knew what kind of character this man was, but he was not angry, and still smiled: "Yes, I am the boss of this hundred ghost office, I don't know if there is anything you need my help with, sir?" β
"Forget it, since it was introduced by Mr. Guo, it shouldn't be bad, as long as it can solve my problem!" The middle-aged man said unceremoniously, and then sat down on the chair next to him.
As soon as Long Daoling heard Mr. Guo, he remembered the real estate boss he had helped in the hospital last time, and it seemed that the man in front of him was also a member of their circle, so he already knew it in his heart, and sat down slowly.
"It turned out to be Mr. Guo's friend, I don't know what Mr. is called?" Long Daoling asked politely.
"You can call me Brother Zhong." The middle-aged man said directly.
Long Daoling really couldn't get used to him, and even wanted to take advantage of others in terms of title, but he was not informal, and he also said with a smile: "Then this Zhong brother, you can start." β
Then, he said to Long Daoling: "Here's the thing, I'm a developer, I just implemented a development project, it's a dilapidated orphanage in the city, it needs to be demolished, the approval has been done, and when I was ready to start construction, there was an accident in that place, and I heard that the workers said that it was haunted, which caused my project to be shelved there, and the workers didn't dare to start work."
I went to the dean there to find out, and it is said that nothing like this has happened before, I don't know about these things, and I have also asked some of your peers to do things, but when these rice buckets say it, they are full of words, and as soon as they go there, they are scared away, which is really annoying. When he said this, he deliberately raised his voice, as if he was deliberately saying it to Long Daoling.
Long Daoling also understood his intentions, and continued to remain silent, and the man named Brother Zhong also continued: "There is a very strange thing about this matter, the people in the original sect have nothing to do, only the people I called over were all injured, and it depends on the character, and it happened in broad daylight, you say that the evil is not evil." β
Hearing this, Long Daoling couldn't help but laugh, thinking, it turns out that you also know that your character is not good, at this time, Brother Zhong looked at him puzzled and asked, "Is there anything funny about this?" β
"Oh, you misunderstood, it's just some facial cramps, hehe." Long Daoling avoided the misunderstanding of the other party, and casually found an excuse to respond.
"Facial cramps? You people are really weird, no matter what, in short, this matter will be entrusted to you, and after the matter is done, you will not be given a penny less money, of course, if you can't do it, you don't want to get a penny from me. The middle-aged man said unceremoniously.
"Brother Zhong, please rest assured, I will take care of this matter." Long Daoling nodded.
"Well, if there's anything else you want to know, you can go to the director of that orphanage and find out." The middle-aged man added.
Long Daoling smiled after hearing this: "That is my scope of work, please leave it to me, and, Brother Zhong, you should know my rules here, right?" β
The middle-aged man also understood what the other party meant, took out 50,000 yuan and threw it on the table, and said, "This is a deposit for you." β
Seeing this, Long Dao Ling swayed and said, "Brother Zhong, I'm sorry, your deposit doesn't seem to be enough. β
"What, it's not enough for me to pay a deposit of 50,000, so how much do you want?" The middle-aged man was surprised.
"The minimum deposit is 150,000 yuan, and the total cost is 300,000 yuan after the completion of the matter, which has already given you the best price." When the middle-aged man heard this, he shouted: "Before you have done anything, you have opened your mouth to ask for so much money, is there a trick like you?" β
"Brother Zhong, this is just a business transaction, and it is also my charging standard, if you think it is expensive, you can only ask for another wisdom." Long Daoling still kept a smile and said.
The middle-aged man was a little annoyed and angry after hearing this, and immediately stood up, pointed at Long Daoling and scolded, every sentence was unbearable swearing, after Long Daoling heard it, his eyes changed, and he whispered to him: "Brother Zhong, please pay attention to what you say." β
This middle-aged man was originally like this, and when he heard the other party's provocative words, he became even more violent, and at this time, Bai Qi and Hei Qi stood up from the sofa and slowly walked to Long Daoling's side.
The middle-aged man looked at the two of them, and said with great disdain: "What's the matter, do you want to beat me when these two walls of yours come here, my loyal brother is not a good man and a woman, if you move me, you will not have a good life." β
Long Daoling waved his hand, signaling Bai Qi and Hei Qi to retreat, the middle-aged man was laughing at them a little proudly, and at this moment, an invisible force slapped on his face, and dark black finger prints appeared on his face out of thin air.
Suddenly, the man was startled, he looked next to him, and he couldn't see anyone beating him at all, and suddenly, his body trembled uncontrollably, and he was forced back into his chair by an invisible force.
After this situation appeared, the middle-aged man looked very scared, looked around in a panic, and said to himself: "What's the matter? What's going on? β
Behind the middle-aged man, there were two ghosts, namely the Flying Ghost and the Wilderness Ghost, they couldn't get used to this man, the Flying Ghost gave him a slap in the face, since the two of them did not transform, the man could not see them, and now he was frightened.
Long Daoling's face still didn't change, but he smiled in his heart: "Look at your appearance, I can't do it without knocking you on a single stroke, and I actually hurt people, I can't do it without giving you some color." β
"Brother Zhong, can you talk properly now?" Long Daoling stared at him and asked.
The middle-aged man came to his senses, and also understood that these were the actions of the other party, it seemed that the other party was a real person, and his tone immediately changed, and he said to Long Daoling: "Let's talk about oil paintings, and if we have something to say"
"That's right, I have a fee standard here to analyze the difficulty of the commission according to the situation provided by the customer, you just said that this ghost can hurt people in broad daylight, it is quite a powerful character, so there is a certain risk, so this fee is already very affordable." Long Daoling smiled.
The middle-aged man gritted his teeth, took out another 100,000 yuan and put it on the table, Long Daoling saw that he was very cooperative and took out the money, and said politely: "Brother Zhong, thank you very much, the matter will definitely be done, and after the matter is handled, remember to put the balance into my card, understand?" β
The middle-aged man had just seen Long Daoling's ability, and he also understood what the other party meant, that is, don't think about repaying the debt, because this is something that can't run away, and quickly replied respectfully: "Master Long, don't worry, I must remember, I must remember!" β
After the middle-aged man left, he also said to himself: "Let's start work!" β
He decided to go to the orphanage now, and learned from the middle-aged man that the other party could shoot in broad daylight, and he must not be a weak character, so for safety, he brought Bai Qi and Black Qi with him, and the three of them went to the entrusted place together.
After a while, they came to the door of the orphanage, which was described by the middle-aged man, and the white ash layer on the wall had more or less peeled off, revealing the wall of cement bricks and crooked chalk graffiti. Weeds had grown in the corners of the orphanage's walls, the black patent leather on the dilapidated iron door had been lifted and peeled off, and the wheels of the iron gate were grinding against the rails on the concrete floor, making a creaking sound.
Walking into the courtyard, there is a dilapidated and desolate emptiness inside, and the gate is also plain gray and white, looking at the entire orphanage, there is a feeling of simplicity and oldness, and it can be seen that this orphanage has been some years old.
Long Daoling looked at the scene in the orphanage and thought to himself, it is not surprising that there are ghosts in such an old place, but what has happened is only a hurtful incident, and it has not caused any deaths, so it is better to deal with it as soon as possible.
Then, he took Bai Qi and Hei Qi to the director's room, and he was met by an elderly orphanage director, surnamed Huang, who was also relatively kind, and after Huang knew the purpose of their arrival, he also introduced some of the situation here to him in detail, and also brought a few of them to a classroom, where there were more than a dozen orphans.
Dean Huang said: "The children in the orphanage are generally abandoned by their parents, in their young hearts is a scar that cannot be hidden, although they are not old, but they have a precocious maturity that does not match their age, so they are very wary of outsiders, if you want them to take off their guard, then you must lose the so-called sympathetic gaze, look at them with the eyes of normal children, and do not ask their former parents and family related things, and do not ask how they live now." Because all of this is undoubtedly a reminder of the fact that they are orphans, and you may be kind, but for the children, it is not something they want to remember. β
Speaking of orphans, Long Daoling also felt the same way, he was actually an orphan, fortunately he had his aunt and uncle, otherwise, maybe he might have fallen into such a place, he took a closer look at them, among these orphans, the youngest was 9 years old, and the oldest was 16 years old.
Dean Huang said: "Most of the orphans have been adopted, this is the last orphan in our orphanage, they can't find an adopter for the time being, this place is about to be demolished, and I plan to transfer them to other orphanages." β
Long Daoling nodded, feeling that the commission he had received this time was a bit heavy, at this time, Dean Huang introduced to those orphans: "Let me introduce you, this brother is here to help us, you don't have to be afraid anymore." β
However, the reaction of those children was not very strong, and Long Daoling also understood that perhaps in the eyes of those children, they were defensive of themselves, and he noticed that the girl sitting in the back row thought that she was the oldest, with long hair, Svenwen, but her eyes revealed sadness and confusion like other children.
However, he is concerned about haunting things now, since he entered the orphanage, he has not felt a trace of ghosts until now, if it is a ghost that can appear during the day, it should also be a guy with some ability, but he doesn't feel anything, and even the ghost ring has not flickered.
"Strange?" Long Dao Ling said puzzled, he also asked the side, however, the answer also surprised him, even as a powerful ghost, he couldn't feel the breath of other ghosts.
Long Daoling frowned and asked Dean Huang, "When did that haunted thing start?" β
After hearing this, Dean Huang replied slowly: "There has never been such a thing here, until those developers come over, and the place where it happened was in the canteen, and I will take you to see it." β
Then, Dean Huang took them to the canteen next door and began to say: "I was also on the scene at that time, and the person in charge of the developer came to go through the formalities, and those phenomena happened, first of all, the surrounding chairs would move by themselves, and then some dishes and chopsticks would fall out of the cupboard and fly in mid-air, and they would also hit the developer's people, and injured several people. But it didn't hurt the children, it just scared them. β
After listening to Dean Huang's description, Long Daoling determined that this was a real supernatural phenomenon, and there must be ghosts worshipping, but he didn't feel any ghost aura here, and the only explanation was that maybe the other party was an alien ghost, and he just wasn't there, so he couldn't feel it.
He couldn't fully accept this idea, because he knew that even if the ghost wasn't there, if he did, there would be no more or no trace of breath, but it was really "clean", in other words, there were no ghosts at all.
"When does this usually happen?" Long Dao Ling also continued to ask.
Dean Huang shook his head and replied: "I can't say this, it seems that there is no fixed time, the only person with the most appearance rate is that the developer's people will definitely appear as soon as they enter the orphanage, and there are a few experts like you who have come here before." β
"I see." Long Daoling said to himself, maybe he came at the wrong time, and he planned to say goodbye first, and come back later, just as he turned around and was about to leave, something strange happened, a chair near him suddenly moved on its own, and then slowly rose into the air, suddenly, the chair quickly smashed towards Long Daoling's body, saying that it was too late, that was fast, Bai Qi noticed the grip, and immediately moved to Long Daoling's side, and knocked the chair out with a punch.
At the same time, all the tables, chairs, and miscellaneous items in this dining hall seemed to have life, and they kept beating in place, but Long Dao Ling was very surprised, because there was still no ghost qi here
