Chapter 172 Asking about the door of life and death
When Hu Qi and others came, they did not forcibly destroy my coffin shop. Maybe they also wanted to deal with me without alerting me.
It's a pity that I didn't see what he did, but Xiaozhi who happened to come back could see it clearly.
It's a good thing to know the other party's plan in advance. I can also lay out the situation here and wait for the three people to come.
It just so happens that I also want to see if my level has improved a bit.
The coffin shop is not doing business these days, so I can deal with Hu Qi and the others with peace of mind.
I have also prepared cinnabar and small flags, and will give them a surprise as soon as they step onto this land.
In addition, I also did a lot of small tricks, plus Xiaozhi and the others are all here, my chance of winning is much better.
I felt that I was almost ready, but I never expected that Hu Qi and the three people seemed to have disappeared, and there was no movement at all in the past few days.
After doing this for a long time, they suddenly stopped showing up. I was not prepared for this.
Xiaozhi and the others were even more like this. At first they were a little excited and wanted to fight, but they didn't see anyone coming, so they gradually relaxed.
I also thought about whether my coffin shop would not be viable without business. If things go on like this, all those customers would go to other places, and who would come to my store again?
Thinking of this, I simply waved my hand and asked them to come over, "Withdraw, we will open as normal tonight."
I'm going to enter that trial for the second time in a few days, so it's better to prepare for this.
On the first day of business resumption, a ghost would come in from time to time and buy some ordinary things.
The profit for one night was not good, but it was better than not earning a penny at all. Everyone had rested during the day, but Zhong Ling suddenly called me.
"Hey, can you hear me?"
This time I could actually hear what she said, so I quickly responded, "Yes, what do you want to say?"
Zhong Ling breathed a sigh of relief and was able to communicate normally. "Finally, we got through. There's something wrong with the signal at my house. What's wrong? Are you back?"
I thought I had to go there next time, so you asked me if I was back, but I was still complaining in my heart, so I responded well, "How many days have I been back?"
Zhong Ling counted the time there and said, "It's almost time to leave for the next time. Don't leave in a hurry. Come and help the studio."
After saying that she asked me to go to her place of work, she hung up the phone. I didn't even understand that Zhong Ling was in a hurry again.
In order to clear up the doubts in my mind, I decided to go to her place no matter what.
Zhong Ling, who I passed by, was already standing at the door.
She is still dressed in an intellectual style. The fitted dress not only highlights her temperament, but also outlines her figure perfectly.
Seeing me coming, Zhong Ling took off her glasses, pointed behind her, and went straight to the point and said to me, "Look, I just left with my front foot, and my back foot came to my territory to cause trouble."
I have also felt the cold and cold atmosphere here, but I don't know the ins and outs of this matter.
Zhong Ling continued, it turned out that this place was not peaceful at all.
But in this area, where ghosts are causing trouble, the rent is really the cheapest. Even one month's rent next door is enough to rent here for half a year.
In the past, there were also people who did not believe in evil and felt that they had a strong yang energy and a strong destiny, so they insisted on renting it.
The landlord happily agreed to the deal that came to his door, but he didn't expect that after only two or three days of renting, the man seemed to have been sucked in a layer of yang energy and was crying to leave.
The landlord was also reluctant, and finally rented it out. Then he went in and was about to renovate it, but he ran away. Once the bad reputation spread, wouldn't it mean that no one would be willing to rent this house?
But in the end, I couldn't stand the man's quarrel and quit, and the rental price became even lower.
There wasn't much movement after Zhong Ling arrived, but this thing seemed to be playing hide and seek with Zhong Ling. It was easy to find Zhong Ling, but she still couldn't find it.
But I didn't expect that she had only been away for a few days, and that thing could no longer hold back and started making trouble.
I deliberately tested Zhong Ling, "You can handle this matter yourself. Why did you call me here?"
Zhong Ling shook her head, "I'm a lady. This kind of menial and tiring work has nothing to do with me. It seems like you're going to be beaten and killed, and I'm not interested."
She looks more like a member of a big family. I could have said that I was doubtful before, but now I am sure of it.
It's rare for Zhong Ling to ask me for something and take the initiative to come to me. I also want to take this opportunity to ask more about the situation of the Gate of Life and Death.
"I can help you solve it. You answer a few questions for me first."
When Zhong Ling heard this, she raised her eyebrows with interest.
I finally took the opportunity to investigate and resolve my doubts, "What exactly is the Gate of Life and Death?"
This question is indeed what I want to know the most. To be able to exert such great power, capture so many innocent souls alive, and give them the power to control a part of the space inside is not something that one or two people can do. What is the secret behind this?
What kind of organization.
I thought Zhong Ling would answer me, but she shook her head, "I can't say. If you really want to know, just persist. Everything will be clear in the end. It's not a good thing for me to tell you now."
I couldn't answer this question, so I asked another one, "Then what's the matter with the fact that trialists can kill each other now?"
"What? Killing each other?" Zhong Ling repeated in surprise, looking at her expression as if she knew about this for the first time.
I nodded affirmatively, and Zhong Ling muttered to herself, "How could it be? I didn't have this rule when I participated."
Then Zhong Ling continued to tell me, "I don't know. It seems that you asked me in vain. The changes are too big now, and I can't help you anymore."
There was nothing I could do about it. I simply turned around and faced her studio and asked, "You know what the things in there are, right?"
Zhong Ling was a little embarrassed and nodded, "I heard that he was an office worker who jumped off the building due to too much work pressure. After his death, he stayed here to take revenge."
I understand, although I always feel that it is not that simple, but it is also a good thing to know a little bit about the origin of the other party.
In order to prevent anyone from entering by mistake, Zhong Ling simply took a leave of absence and locked the door with an iron chain.
There are so many people under surveillance here, but no one dares to break through a locked door. This is why Zhong Ling has been away for so long and there has been no murder.
At this time, I just asked Zhong Ling to open the lock, and the evil wind inside could not wait to come out.
I walked in front, and there was another advantage to having two of us come in together, that is, we would not be easily flustered or frightened.
