Chapter 159 A Strange Family
After dinner, everyone had a very happy chat. Liu Zhigang was not a difficult person to get along with. He was just a straightforward person and he kept asking us to drink. After dinner, Liu Wei's family began to get busy, so we had to leave the dining table and go upstairs.
It was dark outside, and the third floor must be very dangerous, so I asked Qin Hao and Xu Hao to wait for us on the first floor. After all, they were just ordinary people, and Lin Zi and I had no strength to protect them. They knew the situation, so they naturally understood that they would not cause trouble for us and were willing to wait for us on the first floor.
Lin Zi and I turned on the lights all the way, but found that the lights on the second floor were broken. No one went upstairs for such a long time, so it was no wonder that the lights on the second floor were broken. Fortunately, Lin Zi and I had practiced luminous eyes and could see everything in the dark.
The second floor was normal and quiet. When the night came, it felt dark and terrible. Lin Zi and I didn't dare to go to the room and bathroom with footprints. Walking directly to the third floor, Lin Zi finally couldn't help but ask me.
"Why don't we drink some wine? You know we can all drink some wine, and it doesn't matter if we drink some."
I said to Lin Zi, "Don't you think Liu Wei's family is abnormal? Liu Wei is a perfect man. When I was having dinner just now, Liu Wei's father kept asking us to drink even though he knew we had something to do in the evening. Liu Wei's sister Liu Li didn't speak much in the corner. Liu Wei's mother stayed in the old man's room and didn't come out. All signs made me suspect that his family had a problem, and they must have a purpose for asking us to come over." I was not in a hurry and slowly analyzed Lin Zi.
Lin Zi heard my words and patted his forehead and said to me: "Why didn't I expect that I really don't know if you didn't say it. According to what you said, then this family might want to harm us?"
"This is also my guess. The reason why I asked Qin Hao and Xu Hao to stay was to let them keep an eye on the actions of this family. I must be careful of others, and no one knows who thinks." I reminded Lin Zi not to believe in others casually when looking at the surface.
Only then did Lin Zi understand what I meant and nodded to me. I also nodded to him. The task now is for Lin Zi and I to inquire about the situation on the third floor. Find the ghost's figure and catch it.
I walked to the third floor step by step and found that the temperature was colder than when I was on the third floor just now. The cold air invaded my body, stimulating the nerves of the brain, and now I feel very awake. Lin Zi and I complained that we didn’t wear thicker clothes before going out. The yin energy on the third floor was too heavy, which led to extremely low temperatures.
Fortunately, we are cultivators, and we use our true energy to force out the yin energy and cold energy so that we will not be frozen to death. The ground is still very clean and there is no dust at all, so we can't help but start to get a little scared. This is really terrifying. The dust on the second floor is so heavy, but the third floor is so clean and tidy. It is definitely no one who believes that there is no ghost here.
This forced Lin Zi and I to carefully open a room slowly. It was empty, but there was thick dust. This made me wonder why there was a pile of dust in the room.
Lin Zi couldn't help but curse, "Damn, what a hell is this? The outside is so clean, but there is so much dust inside."
"Indeed, this place is too weird, we must be careful. This female ghost is definitely not simple, otherwise the yin energy will be so heavy." I reminded Lin Zi not to let him be careless, after all, this place is not simple.
Lin Zi naturally understood that this place was not simple, so he nodded to me and said, "Well, I understand, what kind of tricks this female ghost is playing? Look at other rooms and check what is going on."
Lin Zi and I continued to open the doors of other rooms, and the same was true. They were slowly dusty. This was so strange. Why were there dust in the room, but it was so clean. We couldn't understand what the situation was. I really didn't understand. Could it be that the Yin Qi swept the corridor clean?
This doesn't make sense. How could the Yin Qi be cleaned by itself? If it was that female ghost, why did you only clean this corridor and not the room? Lin Zi and I looked at each other, shook our heads and didn't understand the reason.
After dinner, I asked Liu Wei's family, but no one had been to the second floor. Because I was too anxious to go home, I had to do anything and didn't have time to clean the upstairs. We had not told them what they saw on the second floor, so as not to say that everyone had no appetite.
I suddenly remembered that last time I went to the old man's haunted house, and finally saw many corpses of people in the attic. Maybe the female ghost was hiding in the attic above our heads? I told Linzi this idea, and Linzi agreed with my idea.
Lin Zi asked, "Then how do we enter this attic? It seems that there is no entrance."
"We will look for it, there will definitely be some. Otherwise, this female ghost would hide there, the second and third floors are empty, and there is no other place except the attic." I insisted.
Lin Zi expressed his thoughts: "Will their family be a ghost and deliberately act in front of us, especially the old man's body is so yin."
"It shouldn't be. If they were ghosts, then they would recruit Taoist priests. Are they aiming to retaliate against Taoist priests? Are they not afraid of meeting as strong as Master Ji Ming, so they are definitely not ghosts. But we don't know what their purpose should be." I insisted on my idea and did not agree with Lin Zi's idea.
