Chapter 50: The Warm Resort (22)

"At that time, there was a lot of trouble, and the resort was directly locked down and shut down, and the developer of the resort was said to have lost money...... People have tried to solve this bizarre collective death case, but they can't find any clues......" Old man Zhang said this, and sighed deeply, "Later, the news of my daughter spread, and the murderer could not be found for a long time, so everyone thought it was a ghost seeking revenge." I...... I...... ...... harm"

"Everyone said that my daughter killed people after her death, so the families of those victims have been coming to harass us, and my wife and I have also been abused and oppressed by them, and even the people in the village do not want to see us. My wife...... It was at this time that he passed away because he couldn't stand the pressure......"

Speaking of his wife, Old Man Zhang burst into tears again, he held his forehead silently, and the tears of pain slowly flowed down with the memories of the past.

"My wife was a very kind and virtuous person when she was alive...... Now...... Since she is willing to show up and give you the ring of the lantern, then she must be ...... She also hopes that you can help the lanterns get out of the sea of suffering...... Alas...... I—I don't want her to ...... Hurt people again......"

After that, Old Man Zhang hid his face and sobbed. Old man Zhang has lived for such a long time, and he has seen many people and things, even if he has never been in contact with a few people before, it is not difficult to guess their true identity and purpose through the questions and actions of several people.

Old man Zhang's words were heard by everyone, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Although Old Man Zhang looked very sad, his words undoubtedly showed his attitude and position.

Although whether he was willing or not could not hinder everyone's actions, since he had the same position, it showed that this old man Zhang could still give the hunters some help.

"Old man, the Si people have passed away, and the festival mourns and changes." Xu Wenlong gently patted him on the back.

"Yes, you are sad to lose your loved ones, and so are the loved ones of those innocent travelers who died. Today, we also live in the resort to protect the travelers who live there. Now, if this kind of tragedy of life and death does not happen again, the only way is to eliminate ...... Uh, overkill your daughter's soul! Lin Zhixing was also on the side to help.

The old man did not speak, just wiped his tears and nodded silently.

"Old man, don't hide it, this girl and I are Taoist priests of Qingguan Dao." At this time, Jin Haiping spoke, and as he spoke, he pointed to Yun Lan. In Yunlan: "Ah...... Here comes ...... again", he continued to explain to Old Man Zhang: "The two of us saw the murderous spirit raging here and ghosts rampant, so we wanted to come here to suppress evil spirits and protect the peace." ā€

"The other few people are all people with their own magical powers, and they all have their own special means of dealing with demons and ghosts, so we have gathered together and are ready to defend the peace of this side together, so that more innocent people can be spared." Jin Haiping said very seriously and firmly, Yun Lan felt that if he didn't know the inside story, he might really think that he was a Taoist priest with a high sense of justice.

Sure enough, Old Man Zhang was frightened by him, and in his eyes, which were still looking up and down Jin Haiping suspiciously, there was a bit of awe hidden at this moment.

"Old man, I'm sure you don't want to let the tragedy happen again, do you?" Jin Haiping was very satisfied with his reaction, so he hurriedly asked while the iron was hot. The old man nodded, and he continued, "We plan to go to Qianhu Lake tomorrow evening to spend your daughter's soul. But in the huge Qianhu Lake, it is difficult for us to find her traces, and then, we need your help. ā€

Seeing a hint of confusion in the old man's eyes, Jin Haiping showed his shallow smile that was harmless to humans and animals:

"Her dead soul is basically unconscious at the moment, unable to communicate. The only thing that drives her behavior is the obsession of her life, and you are the most important family member in her life, and I hope that when the time comes, you can call her name by the river to draw it out. ā€

"Don't worry, we will hide not far from you, and as soon as there is a situation on your side, we will immediately come to the rescue." Speaking of this, Jin Haiping paused and continued, "If you are still not at ease, we can let this spirit dog endowed with Taoist immortal qi follow you, once there is danger, with its sensitive perception and skills, it will definitely be able to successfully protect you." ā€

Old man Zhang may have had some concerns, but if Jin Haiping finished talking about the good and the bad, he was a little embarrassed to refuse. After pondering for a moment, he finally nodded helplessly: "Alas...... So be it...... Anyway, I don't have a life to live for a few years, so it's better to ...... It's better to ...... like that."

"Eh, old man, you can't say that." Lin Zhixing hurriedly interrupted him, "If you help us succeed in surpassing the unjust soul of the lantern, then you will be a great hero who has saved countless people!" If you add merit like this, you may be able to live a long life! ā€

"Yes, old man. Don't think so, we'll take care of you. Xu Wenlong also answered, thinking that it was rare for Lin Zhixing to say something useful.

When the old man saw a few people say this, his pessimism eased a lot. Seeing that he was a little relaxed in his heart, Jin Haiping continued: "Old man, do you know...... Qianhu Temple? ā€

Hearing the name of the temple, the old man nodded and said, "We, the villagers, are afraid of being found by my daughter's unjust soul, so we have built this temple not far from the lake to worship and appease my daughter's unjust soul. ā€

"Every year, whenever my daughter's death day comes, everyone has to go to the Qianlan Festival to burn incense and sacrifice, and then at night, put the lanterns into a river that can flow to the Qianhu Lake, so that the lanterns flow into the Qianhu Lake."

"It only takes that night to put the lanterns, but it takes four days to burn incense and worship in Qianhu Temple, and to bow in good faith."

After the old man finished answering, Jin Haiping narrowed his eyes.

"Old man, your daughter's death day...... No...... Tomorrow, right? Jin Haiping asked slowly.

"Yes...... So, I'm quite worried when I hear that you're going to act tomorrow......" The old man nodded in response.

No wonder...... No wonder I'm going to Qianhu Temple tomorrow. Yun Lan also narrowed her eyes, recalling that there were still four days left in the mission time, which coincided with this four-day sacrifice, and it was indeed too far-fetched to say that it was a coincidence.

"Old man, we will also go to Qianhu Temple tomorrow." Jin Haiping spoke, "When the time comes, let's meet directly in the Qianhu Temple, and the specific task schedule will have to be after we get rid of some obstructive ghosts first." ā€

Old man Zhang nodded So, this matter is basically settled.

When a few people came out of Old Man Zhang's house, it was already getting dark, and they hurried in the direction they came, and finally rushed back to the resort before it was completely dark.

Several people carried room cards on their bodies, and sure enough, when they saw a few people approaching, the big iron door of the resort automatically opened to both sides, as if there was an invisible person opening the door.

Without making too many stops, a few people quickly walked into the nine o'clock hall, at this time the little girl at the front desk was sitting behind the front desk, saw a few people, and said hello with a smile: "Good evening~"

Several people answered her words, especially Xu Wenlong, who stood directly on the outside of the farthest away from the little sister at the front desk. The little girl at the front desk just smiled at this, but she didn't care much.

A few people went up the stairs to the second floor, and after checking the rows, they found that there was indeed a layer of dust on it that had not been cleaned.

"Sure enough." Jin Hai said flatly, and then turned his head to leave.

At this time, the secret of the second floor has been basically solved, and it should be inseparable from the souls of the ordinary tourists who were killed by the unjust souls of Zhang Cailan.

Those souls were imprisoned in this resort, even though they were long dead, but the only instinct left made them repeat what they had done day after day, night after night. One of them is fitness.

That's why the fitness room on the second floor is full of dust, because a large number of dead souls gather here every night. And according to this logic, those rooms with closed doors, as well as the floors above, should also be full of dead souls.

It's cruel. Wang Xinru couldn't help but shudder when she thought about it. She couldn't imagine what kind of pain and resentment it was to force a girl's soul so cruel and bloodthirsty.

knocked on the door of ordinary travelers door to door, informing them that they would be transferred to Xu Wenlong's room 307 tonight and gathered. Having the experience of the previous night, ordinary tourists hurriedly packed up their things and hid in 307.

After confirming that the number was correct, Kim Hae-pyong locked the door, and at the same time, pasted a red window grille cut into a grimace pattern on the door.

"This is Zhong Kuiyan." Kim Hae-pyeong explained, "By sticking it on the door, you can resist the invasion of ghosts to a certain extent. With that, he took out another Zhong Kui eye, and then pasted it on the window: "Tonight is the third night, and the attack of the ghosts should be more fierce." So don't hide anything you have, get through tonight, and everything will be over. ā€

Hearing his words, Xu Wenlong's eyes hesitated for a moment, and then he took out a cloth bag, reached into the cloth bag, and grabbed some white flowers from it.

It's glutinous rice. Yun Lan's eyes were sharp, and she immediately judged it. It's just that the amount of this bag of glutinous rice is more than the bag she once had, and the bag of glutinous rice is more delicate than the one she used to have. Although there is no difference in the glutinous rice itself, the grade is definitely higher than her bag.

Then, she saw Xu Wenlong scattering glutinous rice in all corners of the room, and finally walked into the toilet and sprinkled it around the various outlets of the toilet. Soon, a cloth bag was gradually emptied, and Xu Wenlong then took it back into the system.

Then there was Liu Changbo, I saw Liu Changbo gritted his teeth, took out an oil lamp, and saw everyone looking at him, he explained: "The light of this oil lamp is shrouded in the range, and evil spirits are not allowed to invade." It's just that there's not much oil in it, and I won't turn it on unless I have to. ā€
