Chapter Seventy-Five: Blood as a Medium
As I let out a long breath and was about to descend the elevator, the elevator doors opened. What came out of the elevator was Niu Lifan, who was wearing a robe, did he really come to stay in the hotel? Didn't release my pigeons?
I glared at him, "You, you're really here." β
"Of course, sixty thousand. With your blood deed in you, the 60,000 yuan will be considered to be given to us by this hotel. Let's say okay first, you have 20,000 and I have 40,000. He took out his compass, looked at the floor, and said, "Sure enough, the yin qi on this floor is particularly heavy. β
"How's the heavy? Do you see the ghosts here? I asked, looking at the room card he was holding in his fingers, drew it, and looked at the number, it turned out to be the room where Zong Sheng lived before, which was the one next door to the dead fish's eyes. I opened the door for him and said, "I've seen several ghosts here before, but this time I couldn't see anything. β
Niu Lifan followed behind me, still looking at the compass in his eyes, his hands were pointing at the sword, pointing to the east and pointing to the west, and said: "The yin qi here is very chaotic, maybe they devour each other and eat each other?" β
"Can a ghost eat a ghost?" I asked, Zong Sheng had said something similar before, but I didn't understand it, and he didn't explain it to me properly.
"It's impossible to have a normal ghost, but if there are two ghost fetuses here, it becomes possible. Girl, do you know that the ghost fetus is bloodthirsty. They kill people and set firesγγγγγγ β
"Zong Sheng won't!" I snapped him off.
"Okay, he won't, he's a ghost, but he's also a gentleman, isn't he? But he definitely doesn't forget his instincts. Devils rely on eating their mothers to absorb nutrients, and few mothers who give birth to ghost babies can survive. Niu Lifan took back the room card from my hand, walked into the room, closed the door, and said, "Tonight, you came up to me at eleven o'clock in the middle of the night." β
"Well, you, you're just standing at the door and waiting for me." I said, if I knock on the door and walk into the room, I don't know what all that gossip will say.
The elevator from the sixteenth floor to the tenth floor stopped on the twelfth floor, and the people who walked in were Shen Jien and his uncle Shen Ji. Shen Ji often appears in our local financial newspapers, and it is said that he is also very powerful, and he has today's achievements with the reform of the Shen family.
Shen Jien smiled when he saw me and said, "You Xuan." β
I just nodded coldly to them. Shen Jien said to his uncle: "Uncle, this is Zong Youxuan. β
"Oh? The scabbard of the old North pro-point. Haha, yes. Work hard, there is a chance to be promoted in Shane, and in a few years, Shane will become bigger, and I will hand it over to you, you γγγγγγ β
"Uncle, she doesn't know anything yet."
"Oh, forget it, let's talk about it in a few years."
The tenth floor arrived, and the elevator doors opened. I nodded to them and stepped out of the elevator. But when the elevator door closed, I quickly took out my phone and called my mother's number. After looking around, I finally walked to the utility room at the end of the hotel and closed the door to talk to my mom on the phone.
"Hey, Mom, do you know who Lao Bei is?" Just now the Shen family's uncle and nephew said only a few words, but I heard a lot of ways. I'm a scabbard, I've always known that. Zong Sheng is a sharp knife, and he is responsible for killing. And if you want to hide the edge, you need my scabbard. At the same time, I am also his recuperating existence. How could the Shen family know this, the people who know this are all people from our village.
Shen Ji also used a word, kiss, if you can kiss this person, you must have seen me. What can connect me with the Shen family is this old north who kisses me. According to this inference, my mother should have seen Lao Bei.
On the other end of the phone, my mother shouted: "Old man, who is Lao Bei?" What did the girl ask? Then came my dad's bass-heavy voice, "Isn't that the old gentleman from the next village?" It's the one who took Zong Sheng away in the first place. I've heard people call him that, too. "Don't everyone call him old man? And this one, how come I don't know. "There's a lot you don't know."
My mom sent me another message, but I had already heard what they were discussing, so I answered a few casual words, asked my parents how they were doing, and hung up the phone first. Back in the lounge, the eldest sister was not there, and I didn't know where to go. There were no room service prompts on the computer screen, so I took out a blank piece of paper from under the desk and wrote down a lot of names on the white paper about their relationship.
Shen Jia, Zong Sheng, Lao Bei, Wang Gan, Ghost Dad, Wang Gan's Mother, Zong Sheng's Mother, and the last one is me. Lao Bei personally ordered my scabbard, but Shen Ji knew about it. This kind of thing, even Lao Bei won't talk about it casually. Shen Ji, who can know about this, is definitely not an outsider.
Lao Bei first went to find Wang Gan, then found the ghost father, and then found Zong Sheng's mother, gave the grave soil to Zong Sheng's mother, let her get pregnant, gave birth to Zong Sheng, and then Lao Bei personally ordered me this scabbard, but Shen Ji knew about it. And so unfortunately, after Wang Gan was released from prison, he worked in the construction site of the Shen family's Shane Hotel, and died, and was sealed on the sixteenth floor. It's so coincidental that Lao Bei will deal with it, and then even Zong Sheng will deal with it. And the Shen family used Wang Gan to set up a formation to prosper wealth. After Zong Sheng came, Shen Jien also wanted Zong Sheng to enter the hotel several times and become a part of this array.
There is another point that reminds me. Lao Bei personally ordered my scabbard, I heard my mother say that it was because of the eight characters. And my birth was not a normal natural birth, but a premature birth. My mom told me that when she went to the vegetable patch, she seemed to have tripped over something and fell down, and I gave birth prematurely. And when she fell, she seemed to see a porcelain bowl that was thrown outside when she was sending ghosts outside.
My heart sank, and I looked at the paper in my hand, a thin piece of paper, but it seemed to let me know something terrible.
Time passed by a minute, and I stared at the paper for hours. I know that the eldest sister who was with me has a lot of opinions, but now I can't care about it so much. I was completely caught up in my own reasoning. I hope my inferences are wrong. If it's true, then aren't Zong Sheng and I too pitiful?
Before I knew it, it was eleven o'clock, and when I looked up at the time, it was already eleven thirty. I hurriedly packed up my things and hurried up to the sixteenth floor. This time I still ran up the stairs, and I was in a hurry, so I didn't think about it that much.
By the time I got to the sixteenth floor, Niu Lifan was already standing in the hallway waiting for me. At this time, the hotel should have been quiet, but now it is a lively scene. A man in a skeletal bodysuit smiled at us when he saw us and walked into the elevator.
I walked over to Niu Lifan and whispered, "Do they celebrate Halloween every day here?" β
Niu Lifan looked at the compass in his hand and said, "They are right, here at night, the yin qi is particularly active. Maybe they can really see a ghost? After speaking, he put away the compass and looked at me: "Zong Youxuan, are you ready?" β
"I, what are you going to prepare?" I looked at him quizzically.
"I'm just going to find your brother Zongsheng."
"Ready, I've been ready. As long as I can find him, I... "My words were broken. I always said I was looking for him before, but now that I really take action, I'm timid. I'm afraid, I'm afraid I won't find him, and even this last bit of hope is gone. It's the last path I can think of, and what should I do if I can't find it?
Niu Lifan pushed me and said, "I don't have time to prepare for you." "When he pushed me, something seemed to be scratching the back of my hand. There was a tingling pain, and by the time I shook off his hand, the blood on the back of his hand had splashed onto the wall beside it.
"Ahh What are you doing? I exclaimed.
Niu Lifan raised the corners of his mouth, and Nunu asked me to look at the wall over there. When I turned my head to look over, the snow-white wall, although the light was warm and dim, I couldn't see the color of the blood clearly, but I could still see that there was a dark liquid stuck to the wall, and then it was gradually absorbed by the wall, and finally there was no trace left.
When I was stunned, Niu Lifan said: "See, your blood has been eaten by this wall." β
I walked to the wall in disbelief, and it was right in front of me, and there was no trace of it anymore. The blood on the back of my hand was still dripping, and Niu Lifan pushed me again: "Don't waste this blood, hurry up and find your brother." β
"I, I've looked for it many times, he γγγγγγ"
"I'm sure I'll find it this time. This time it's not you alone, it's the whole hotel. Your blood is eaten by this hotel, and so is the blood on the ground, which will give you information and direct you to find people. Look for it with your instincts. β
I gave him a push, bit my lip, and walked forward. Zong Sheng, where are you? Come out. Zong Sheng? Zong Sheng? Where are you? I know you're in this hotel. Where are you? Please come out. What should I do if I can't find you? I said these things in my heart, and all of a sudden I felt so tired, really tired, and I didn't know what was going on with the blood on the back of my hand, it didn't coagulate, it was just dripping blood on the ground.
Gradually, my eyes became darker, the light became darker and darker, and after a few men and women who walked past me, my eyes were completely dark. This black, so black, so black that I can't see my fingers, it's like, it's like, it's like it's in the enchantment, in the kind of darkness I first saw Zong Sheng.
Only this time, instead of just darkness, I saw a little fluorescence not far away, as if it was red blood.
