Chapter 190 God 3 Ghost 4
Bai Ningyu explained, "The ancients said, 'Three sticks for gods, four for ghosts.' This means that when offering incense to gods, you should light three sticks, while when offering incense to ghosts, you should light four sticks."
[Anchor, are you saying this entire neighborhood is... worshipping ghosts!?]
Kindaichi-san [Perhaps this place isn't meant for living people at all.]
Zhan Tianhe: "That's true. I wonder if everyone has noticed. Even though no one lives in those four buildings, the curtains are all drawn. The purpose of drawing the curtains is self-evident: to block out the light. But think about it, why would they block out the light if no one lives there?"
[Unless the things inside are afraid of light.]
[So, everyone living in this building is a ghost!?]
I've heard that some people buy buildings specifically to store urns. Could this be one of those "yin buildings"?
A-Dai was scared to tears by netizens. He rented this building just for the cheap price, but no one told him that the urn was placed in this building.
At this moment, Ah Dai's head was buzzing, and when he looked at the four buildings, his scalp suddenly began to tingle.
I cursed that unscrupulous agent thousands of times in my heart.
"Okay, I have a general understanding of it. You can go back upstairs now." Bai Ningyu said.
Upon hearing this, Ah Dai had a bitter face and shook his head like a rattle.
No matter what, he refused to set foot in the building again: "Host, I don't want to go. Even if I have to sleep on the street, I won't go in. I can accept having a ghost roommate, but I'm afraid of the ghosts on the first floor!"
Bai Ningyu looked at Ah Dai and asked, "You've been marked by a ghost. Where else do you want to run to? If this matter isn't resolved, even if you run to the ends of the earth, the ghost will chase you."
Ah Dai looked at the building with tears in his eyes and asked weakly, "Then what should I do?"
"I sent you a photo of a talisman. It's an invisibility talisman that can conceal your figure and aura, making it impossible for ghosts to detect your presence."
After hearing what Bai Ningyu said, Ah Dai indeed saw a message in the private message. He opened it and saw that it was the talisman drawn by Bai Ningyu.
Bai Ningyu continued, "Do you have paper and scissors at home?"
"Yes, all of them." Ah Dai nodded in response.
"I'll teach you a mnemonic. You must remember it. When you get home, cut out paper into the shape of a little man. Then, drop a drop of blood on the chest of the paper man. Place the paper man on the bed, turn off the lights, and don't make any noise when you see anything.
After that thing appears, the paper man will start to burn, and you will see a red line connecting you to the ghost.
"Now, if you hold a kitchen knife or other sharp blade and cut the red line, it will break. Then, take out your phone and point my live feed at the ghost. I have my own way to deal with it." Bai Ningyu recited a mantra.
Ah Dai kept repeating the formula in his mouth. When he felt that there was no problem and he had memorized the formula, he gritted his teeth and stepped into the building where he rented.
I don’t know if it’s a psychological effect or some other reason, but Ah Dai felt that the temperature in the building made him feel cold, and goose bumps appeared on his arms.
[Don't even mention it, just the dim lighting in this building, coupled with the scary music, this is definitely a horror movie!]
[The person above, you're talking without any pain in your back even when you're standing. If you were in that building right now, you'd be terrified without any music.]
[I have curled up in bed, hugged Alaska, and started shivering.]
Ah Dai walked to the elevator door and pressed the elevator button.
The moment the elevator door slowly opened, Ah Dai's heart almost stopped beating.
Because in the elevator, there was a woman in red clothes standing there.
Ah Dai instinctively wanted to step back and scream, but he instantly remembered Bai Ningyu's instructions not to shout or make any sound, so he forcibly held back the sound stuck in his throat.
"Oh my god, this is so scary. Why would anyone come here so late at night?" The woman was obviously frightened when she saw Ah Dai. After muttering something, she walked out. She still smelled of incense and candles.
Ah Dai slowly breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the person was here to burn incense.
[I was so scared! I thought I saw a ghost!]
This woman is really brave, but she came here at night wearing a red dress.
Just as Ah Dai was about to enter the elevator, Bai Ningyu stopped him: "Ah Dai, hurry up, don't stay here. Send me the address and I'll be there right away."
Although he didn't understand why Master Bai suddenly changed his mind, Ah Dai was extremely happy that he didn't have to step into a building full of urns.
He quickly sent the address to Bai Ningyu and then walked out the door.
[Huh? Why did the host suddenly tell Ah Dai to leave quickly? Did something happen?]
Zhan Tianhe: "Haven't we said before that this building isn't for residents? The only people who come here are usually the families of those whose ashes are in the urns. But who would come here so late at night to pay their respects? Even if they did, who would wear a red dress? It's disrespectful to the ancestors."
[There's something wrong with that woman! Is she not human?!]
"No, she is a human, but she has tamed ghosts in this place. Many ghosts here have been devoured by ghosts. This person is a ghost fighter." Bai Ningyu did not expect that someone would use such a place as a cover to raise ghosts.
[Ghost Fighter? What does he do?]
Bai Ningyu explained, "So-called ghost fighters are people who specialize in taming ghosts to kill people. When they receive a large sum of money to take someone's life, they use the evil ghosts they have tamed.
The police will not be able to find out who was killed by the evil spirits, and will close the case as an accident. This way, the killing can be done in a reasonable and covert way.
My goodness, if that means those killed by evil spirits died in vain, and their injustice will never be redressed.
[Oh my god, this world is so scary. I hope there won’t be a day when I won’t even know how I died.]
Zhan Tianhe: "Don't worry, the ghost fighters charge a lot of money. You don't need to worry about someone using this trick to take your life. If you want to kill ordinary people, hiring someone to kill them is more cost-effective."
[For the first time, I felt a little happy because my life was worthless...]
Just when Ah Dai was approaching the gate and about to go out.
The door to the corridor was suddenly closed tightly. No matter how hard he tried, the door could not be opened.
Ah Dai was immediately startled and broke out in a cold sweat.
