I Wasn’t Born Lucky

Chapter 148:

The ghoul quickly left with the hanged ghost, leaving only the straw rope swaying on the cantilever in the broken brick house.

Zheng Yi deliberately lowered the voice from the door: "Hull?"

Xiao Li still held the umbrella. He turned around and came to the door, only to see that the outside of the house was no longer what they were when they came.

The villagers who were enjoying the shade or walking outside have disappeared. The whole village has no other sound except the voices of the three of them. Even the cicadas or birds on the mountain can not be heard, and it has completely become a dead village.

In fact, if you look inside the tattered paper window carefully, you can see how the villagers were when they died. Some people were sitting on the ground with their faces in horror, while others were holding their hearts and standing straight. Falling on the bed, the corpses have been decayed for a long time, and they are almost unrecognizable.

Tucun...?

Could this be Xu Jin's soul?But from the point that Xu Jin still needs to draw this umbrella back to help her get revenge, it is not like she can do it.

Xiao Li changed his hand and held the purple umbrella. He was about to walk out of the house. He suddenly raised his head and saw a rumorous face on the umbrella.

Xiao Li paused: "...Xu Jin?"

A trace of nostalgia appeared on that face, as if it hadn't been a long time to call her.

A light and fluttering voice floated into Xiao Li's ears: "Thank you."

Xu Jin’s voice is very gentle. If you can see the appearance of a real person, you must belong to the kind of people who are knowledgeable and reasonable. Even becoming a ghost is not offensive. She continued: "This umbrella is my mother's umbrella. On the day I stole my hukou and registered my marriage with him, it was raining like this. I took this umbrella from the umbrella stand in my room, but I never thought this would be the last time I saw my parents. "

"Looking back now, the last moment I regretted it was that day I chose to elope with him. It's no wonder that obsessions will form in the end." Xu Jin said, "Now everything is over, my obsessions are about to dissipate, this umbrella The seal will also be lifted, foreign travelers, you will get what you want."

Xiao Li thought for a while: "Can I ask a question?"

Xu Jin: "You said."

Xiao Li: "Why did this village become like this?"

According to Xu Jin's character now, except for the scumbag who abused her, at least the old lady who sympathized with her would not act.

Xu Jin: "...I don't know either."

"At that time, everything was chaotic, and an outsider came to the village. He persuaded the village chief and told him that our village has a very evil feng shui. As long as we sacrifice nearly half of the villagers, we can get the power to achieve what we want."

"The village chief’s son accidentally missed his words when he was pursuing the girl he liked, and it came out. Everyone was arguing and looking at each other unkindly. They began to kill each other and killed many. Innocent old people and children..."

Xu Jin himself was beaten by her husband for inadequate care and died at home when all this happened.

The outsider who can know the "sacrifice" does not know whether it is the warlock in this copy world or the reincarnation.

"Later, my obsession formed a force, attached to this umbrella. I found that after they died, I could control the village..."

This is what Xiao Li saw when he came over.

Xiao Li nodded thoughtfully.

The color of the face on the umbrella surface became lighter and lighter, and finally turned into a plume of blue smoke scattered outside the house.

At this moment, Xiao Huangben shook again, and the entire Eternal Soul Umbrella became even bigger. Faces after another appeared on the original purple fabric, which looked like white flowers from a distance.

Zheng Yi and Ye Zeqing stayed not far away. They looked at Xiao Li as if they were talking, so they didn't act rashly to disturb them. At this moment, they saw that he was done and they came over and asked: "Success?"

Xiao Li nodded.

Zheng Yi exhaled a long breath: "Let's go, it's so quiet here, it made me get goose bumps."

As he said, he rolled up his sleeves and touched the erected hairs.

Everyone walked back along the original road, the mountain road was difficult to walk, and the dense rain made them move slowly.

On the way, Ye Zeqing asked curiously: "Hull, your umbrella has lifted the seal, what function does it have?"

"I haven't read it yet." Xiao Li said, but now that Ye Zeqing asked, he took a small yellow book from his pocket and took a look.

On the pale yellow paper, a large section of handwriting appeared, and Xiao Li seemed to miss it at first glance.

[...Husband?

[You haven't called my husband yet.

[...A bit jealous.

[I was very angry and wanted to hug you and asked you to call me "husband" ten times, so that I would be happy.

[Fortunately, you didn't call out, otherwise I could not help but appear directly.

[But still...not too happy.

Xiao Li wanted him to appear directly. He didn't know if he appeared like that man, or if he would just make a virtual book.

Until Xiaohuangben’s confession is displayed, he needs to turn a page to see the introduction about the Eternal Soul Umbrella: [Eternal Soul Umbrella, the seal has been removed, you will get more help.

Umbrella Flower: You can use the power of the Eternal Soul Umbrella to change the way outsiders see you. The world is limited to one time.

[Eternal Soul: Enough to live in a soul for a time limit of 24 hours, which can keep the soul alive.

[Similar: When you hold up this umbrella, the ghost will not be able to disturb you.

Xiao Li roughly recounted the function to Ye Zeqing, in exchange for the other's admiring look: "There are many functions, and it's not a one-time item."

This umbrella may be an artifact to the outside world, but obviously, its original owner was not very happy.

This seems very unpredictable.

Xiao Li touched the handle of the umbrella. It’s good if his mind grows and upgrades. There will be more rain that can cover him. Now it is enough to cover his entire upper body from rain.

The rain drops on the purple umbrella surface, wet the face flower above, splashing layer after layer of smoke.

When they returned to the hotel, it was already past dinner, which was close to the afternoon.

The whole old hotel fell on the must-pass mountain road in and out of Lingxi Mountain, like walking into the mouth of an evil spirit.

The sky became more gloomy, Xiao Li closed the umbrella and entered the room, almost no different from the night.

As soon as he entered, Xiao Li raised his eyebrows—the windows of the original hotel had been covered with various fabrics from the inside, and the lights were turned on during the day, like a dark prison.

In the hall, Mr. Hu and others and several reincarnations were sitting. Seeing their distressed look, they knew that they had not been able to contact the outside world and the hotel owner.

Zheng Yi held an umbrella at the door of the hotel and said hello first: "Haven't found the boss yet?"

President Hu reluctantly said: "No, I doubt if he has gone down the mountain."

"Then how do you eat lunch?"

Speaking of this, Mr. Hu showed a little hesitation and panic in his eyes: "At the meal set by the boss, it just appeared in the back kitchen. We obviously watched it, but no one knew when the chef cooked the meal. ."

Zheng Yi: "Have you eaten?"

Mr. Hu said: "No, who would dare? And there is meat today, a plate of braised pork..."

What was not there yesterday, there was meat after Luo Su died, making these reincarnations all feel terrified.

Mr. Hu used to like to eat braised pork, but now he feels sick when he smells it.

"Then what did you eat?"

"Fruit, fresh fruit." Mr. Hu pointed to the edge of the table with a pile of green fruits on it. "There is a fruit tree in the backyard."

Zheng Yi scratched his head: "Can we eat?"

"Yes, there are many more." President Hu said generously and honestly about this kind of thing.

In fact, there were biscuits and other things secretly hidden in his suitcase without taking them out.

Zheng Yi took a few fruits to share with Xiao Li and others.

Mr. Hu asked: "What are you doing out?"

Zheng Yi's action of eating fruit paused for a moment, and Xiao Li continued: "Go out to see if there is anyone else on the mountain, and find the boss by the way."

President Hu: "Did you find it?"

Xiao Li glanced at him deeply: "...No."

President Hu was disappointed to play with the mobile phone with no signal in his hand.

Zheng Yi wrapped some fruit in his clothes: "Then let's go up and take a bath. I feel like a fish swimming in the sea. It's not like a heavy rain, but it's refreshing."

President Hu looked at him deeply with approval.

Xiao Li walked up the stairs, also preparing to take a hot bath and change clothes.

But when he came to the depths of the corridor, he saw the young man standing at the deepest window in the corridor.

Shen Mirage stood by the window to watch the rain outside, the young man's sleeves were rolled up to his elbows, his brows were cold and he looked outside leisurely.

He would hear a sound, and he also turned his head and looked at Xiao Li.

Xiao Li hadn't spoken yet, Shen Mirage had already walked over. He looked down at the handprints on Xiao Li's sleeves: "This is?"

That was the handprint left by Xu Jin's husband when he regarded him as Xu Jin.

Xiao Li: "...Other people caught it, it's nothing."

Shen Mizhi gave a "um", he didn't seem to be happy, but he couldn't tell why he was not happy. He lifted the other party's sleeves and rubbed the skin repeatedly with his fingertips until the area was slightly red. So far: "Next time you go out, you can call me together."

Xiao Li wanted to withdraw his hand, but the other party's strength was so great, it was as if he was caught by steel bars.

Looking at the young man's eyes again, he was looking at him without blinking, his eyes were dark, as if waiting for Xiao Li to express his attitude.

Xiao Li originally wanted to directly push him away, but thought of the scene of Shen Mirage at his door that night, his heart softened slightly.

... It seems to be smooth.

Xiao Li sighed: "...Aren't you here?"

Shen Mirzhi's profile is serious, he circled the other's wrist: "As long as you call me, I will always be there."

Xiao Li can only say: "Next time, I will find you with me."

Xiao Li is a person who rarely troubles others.

Generally speaking, if he is willing to ask someone for help, it means that this person must be close enough in his heart.

The corners of Shen Mirage's lips raised slightly, and then he let go of Xiao Li's hand contentedly.

It's best to... rely on him more.

Before Xiao Li opened the door and prepared to enter the room, Shen Mirage didn't know what he thought of, and grabbed his wrist again: "Can you..."

Call me husband.

Shen Mirage imagined that the other party shouted this way. Maybe it was unwilling, maybe after falling in love, but it must be different from Xiao Li's usual way, soft and sweet.

Just thinking about it, Shen Mirzhi felt soft in his heart, and his original jealousy had been diluted a lot.

This is a feeling he has never felt before.

But if he speaks out, he won’t say whether he can get a response, but Xiao Huangben’s identity is ready to be revealed.

"What?" Xiao Li was waiting for his next words.

Shen Mirage lowered his eyes to conceal the dark golden light at the bottom of his eyes: "Nothing, rest early."

Before Xiao Li fell in love with Shen Mirage, he didn't dare to expose his identity casually, for fear that it would offend the other party, but even so, he still couldn't help but imagine that scene.

This cautious feeling is strange, but nothing makes him more willing.

Into the night.

It was another night. Even though the people in this hotel hated the arrival of night, the time did not stop as expected. On the contrary, it was like dialing the fast forward button. After a while, the sky was completely dark.

I don't know if it is to match the atmosphere, the rain has never stopped.

The raindrops fell into the soil and onto the eaves, leaving large marks on the windows.

The thought of another person being killed by an evil spirit this year made everyone's hearts heavy.

Xiao Li had already finished the shower, changed his clothes, and even had time to take a nap.

He didn't wake up spontaneously, but was awakened by a loud bang outside the door downstairs.

The sound was deafening, like thunder in the ears, almost shaking Xiao Li off the bed.

The little black cat who was lying on the pillow's side had its tail hair erected high, and was frightened, it flew its hair directly, and it even gave a threatening roar from its throat.

...Looking like this, it doesn't look like I was quarreled, but I met a ghost.

Xiao Li simply took off his pajamas and opened the door and went downstairs.

The sound came from the storage room behind the hotel lobby.

When Xiao Li followed the voice to look for it, the people living on the first floor had already surrounded him first.

Under the light of the cold light bulb in the corridor, the door bulged out weirdly, as if an infinitely powerful giant kicked towards the door inside, and some sawdust broke open.

Xiao Li stood up straight at the door, before speaking, Shen Mizhi suddenly stretched out his hand to catch a strand of black hair on his side, rolled it around his fingertips and pressed it down.

Xiao Li: "What's wrong?"

Suddenly touch his head to kill?

Shen Mirage smiled lowly: "It's up."

Xiao Li grabbed a handful of that piece of hair himself, and there was indeed a bunch of black hair standing restlessly on his head, perhaps because the hair was not dry before taking a nap.

Shen Mizhi helped him press several times, but failed.

Xiao Li covered that piece of hair by himself: "Forget it, now is not the time to entangle this."

Sawdust fills the air, like moths overwhelming the sky, surrounding incandescent lamps.

The sound of rain is cool.

"What's in it? How could it make such a sound?" asked a dark-skinned reincarnation.

Standing at the outermost edge of the crowd, Jiang Linwen said coolly after hearing the words: "corpse."

"……what?!"

"Luo Sui's body was locked in here in the morning by us." Ye Zeqing added the whole sentence.

Everyone present took a sigh of relief--

There are no other living things in this storage room.

The loud noise just now was heard by everyone. Doesn’t this mean...

Is Luo Sui's body hitting the door?

Lin Ruo was the first to scream: "He, is he dead or not?"

The little girl Xiaotu tightly grasped the corner of her brother's clothes, but the other party had no time to comfort her. He himself was in a state of panic.

Except for a few of them, the rest of the Samsaras frowned...

Jiang Linwen has seen everyone's look: "It's a ghost, here is haunted."

"Then what shall we do now?" Mr. Hu asked Liushen without a master.

Jiang Linwen pondered for a moment-now he can't open it directly. In case the thing inside really "lives", this is a self-inflicted trap. Now the best way is to reinforce a layer outside the door...

Jiang Linwen's method hadn't been completely perfected, and he saw one person in the crowd squeezed out.

The man was good-looking, with black hair and dark eyes, and was extremely conspicuous at first glance, but none of this could compare to what he did.

He came to the door and directly reached out to fiddle with the small lock, seemingly about to twist the lock to open the storage room door.

It was Hercules who he thought was likely to be the incarnation of evil spirits.

Jiang Linwen no longer cared about being afraid that he was an evil spirit, and immediately stopped him without thinking: "You wait—"

But Xiao Li had already moved the small lock flexibly, and pushed the door straight.

Jiang Linwen had to swallow the remaining words.

Behind the door, Luo Su's corpse just lay straight at the door.

The head of the corpse was close to the door of the room, and the forehead was obviously deflated into a hole. Two hands were pressed on the ground before, and his eyes were wide open, as if the loud noise had just been hit by Luo Sui with his head.

Only now, it doesn't move anymore.

Xiao Li turned around and asked Ye Zeqing, "When you brought it over, what posture was it?"

Ye Zeqing's expression was also somewhat unstable, but fortunately Xiao Li gave him a sense of security. He recalled: "Back up, lying in the innermost corner, eyes closed."

Xiao Li: "Can you feel the ghost?"

Ye Zeqing: "No."

Xiao Li kicked the corpse, but didn't respond.

Jiang Linwen at the door: "..."

Surprised by his wild actions.

Xiao Li thought for a while. He walked deep into the storage room and turned out a straw rope from the mahogany cabinet inside. Then he dragged Luo Su's corpse and tied it firmly together, and finally put the rope together. Closed, tied a knot.

Being tied up in this way, even if he was a living person, he would have to try his best to break the rope away before hitting the door with his head.

If Luo Su's body can be moved again, it is really a technical job.

Xiao Li checked his own results and clapped his hands with satisfaction.

He walked out of the storage room, locked the protruding door again, and then turned around and said, "Okay, I can go back to sleep."

Jiang Linwen squinted his eyes. He looked at the person in front of him carefully, and a sentence stuck in his throat--

If this person is an evil spirit, then identifying his identity now can prevent another person from dying tonight.

He just feels that the name is at the corner of his teeth, and he can say it as soon as he speaks, but it will be dead if he admits it wrong...

When Jiang Linwen hesitated, Ye Zeqing patted his shoulder behind him.

Jiang Linwen looked back, only to hear Ye Zeqing said solemnly: "I don't think you look like a devil, I'll give you some advice."

Jiang Linwen: "What?"

Ye Zeqing: "You have been watching him, don't you really suspect that he is an evil spirit?"

Jiang Linwen was poked at the center of the matter and fell silent.

Ye Zeqing continued: "Don't be too busy to identify him, you go to the forum and search for Hercules, you will understand."

Jiang Linwen: "Forum?"

"The forum function in the task book," Ye Zeqing took the opportunity to say in peace, "and Moriarty."

Zheng Yi on the side listened to all the conversation, and he interjected: "Why don't you say Sherlock?"

Jiang Linwen: "..."

Check it all, check it all, okay?

On the other side, in the toilet in the hall.

Xiao Li turned on the faucet, dipped some water on his fingertips, and began to play with his curled hair.

I don't know how he slept, this strand of hair is very persistent, and he refuses to bend over even if he uses water.

The light in this toilet is different from that in the hall. It is yellowish, reflecting a dark halo on the surrounding tiles.

"Snapped--"

A violent draught closed the door of the toilet firmly, blocking Xiao Li's retreat.

Xiao Li was startled by the sound, he turned on the tap and glanced at the closed door.

The boy's face was reflected in the mirror in the sink, and the whole gloomy toilet was also reflected.

From the sewer pipe, there was a "grunt" sound, as if something was pouring outwards.

The sound became more intense, overwhelming the violent storm outside.

A bunch of thick hair emerged from the mouth of the pipe. It was curled and entangled, climbing outwards like a tuft of aquatic plants, with two eyes flashing from the middle, the whole thing was indescribable.

Xiao Li glanced at each other with those eyes. At first it was okay, but soon he became excited as if thinking of something.

The eyes in the hair flickered.

Is it an illusion, why does this person look at it...with green light?

The confusion of the ghost does not affect its next move. The hair looped in the air, like the tentacles of an octopus, sweeping towards Xiao Li——

Xiao Li raised his lips, he took a step back and gave the stage to the waiting person.

One hand grabbed it, not only that, but also pressed it against the faucet and made a circle.

Behind that group of hair, the faint cry of crying got closer, and the crying woman came uninvited.

Xiao Li said in a relaxed tone, "I found the wig for you. You can't hold grudges anymore."

Ghost:???

Fake...what wig?

Also, why do so many people suddenly appear?When it came out, there was only one human being?

The crying woman came over and reduced her crying. She grabbed the hag, put the hag on her head, fiddled with her hand twice, and suddenly said: "Why is it so frizzy?"

Not as smooth as her own hair.

Disgusted with a ghost: "………………"

If it is more fragile, it will jump off the building!
