Chapter 12 Zhongyuan

It took a lot of effort to bathe the black cat. After Lu Zhao finished his work, he found that there were wood chips scattered near the sofa in the living room, and there was no time to clean up the mirror fragments on the bathroom floor.

When I came yesterday, all the places in the new home had not been cleaned yet. Lu Zhao sighed, found a broom and a rag, and cleaned the room inside and outside.

Lu Zhao himself was a little obsessed with cleanliness, and this morning he saw a rat in the house. It took him half a day to clean it up.

When the house was cleaned up spotlessly and when he was satisfied, Lu Zhao realized that it was already dark outside.

After dinner, Lu Zhao collapsed on the sofa with the black cat in his arms. As night fell, his mood became increasingly nervous.

As usual, he went into the house and scented his brother. When he returned to the living room, he looked at the black cat who was constantly scratching the wall and grinding his claws, Lu Zhao suddenly remembered that he saw some strange traces under the wallpaper yesterday.

But because of what happened later, I almost forgot about this.

Seeing that there was still some time before nine o'clock, he quickly found a shovel and carefully removed the wallpaper.

"What is this?"

What appeared on the wall was not a word, but a symbol composed of some strange graphics that he could not understand at all.

What I insist on saying looks more like the talismans drawn by Taoist priests I saw on TV before.

The talismans occupy almost half of the wall, and at first glance it looks dazzlingly red, which is really scary.

Lu Zhao looked carefully and found that although the wall was old, the color of the paint was very bright. You can tell at a glance that it was painted not long ago.

In this way, the person who left this symbol was either the previous tenant or the landlord.

Thinking of the fact that Hong Kong people have always been superstitious, and the building is indeed unclean, Lu Zhao guessed that the things on the wall were probably used to exorcise ghosts and houses.

Because it looks unsightly and keeps it like this, it will definitely scare others, so the landlord deliberately pastes new wallpaper.

Maybe, it is precisely because of these talismans that the ghost of the hostess next door will not rashly enter his room!

Thinking of this, Lu Zhao quickly took pictures of the symbols on the wall with his mobile phone, intending to ask people who are knowledgeable at that time.

After doing this, he quickly restored the wallpaper and prepared some food for the black cat.

"You make do with something first. If I can survive tomorrow, I will buy you some cat food." Before leaving the door, Lu Zhao rubbed the black cat's head.

Seeing that the time had reached 8:40, he quickly locked the door with incense and paper money and walked into the elevator.

When I was giving the things to myself, Uncle Zhong took a bundle of newspapers and wrapped the incense, saying that it was not auspicious to burn people to death, so it was better to cover them.

At first, Lu Zhao didn't care. There was no signal in the elevator. He took out the newspaper and looked at it. Soon, his attention was attracted by a headline news above.

The newspaper date was eight days ago, and the headlines reported a tragedy after jumping off a building.

A middle-aged woman fell from a high place in the famous Hong Kong mansion, Jun Yiyuan. After police and medical staff arrived at the scene, they found that the mother and daughter had both died.

It is reported that the dead woman is named He Xin, and is the wife of Zhao Wenchang, chairman of a real estate company. She is 34 years old this year. The two have a daughter together. It has been confirmed that she is the dead girl Zhao Ziyuan.

Before his death, He Xin left a suicide note saying that she could not bear her husband's cheating during marriage, and was treated violently by her husband for many years, so she took her daughter to death.

In order to protect the privacy of the deceased, the news did not include photos of their lives. There are only two pictures of the community and the death scene below.

This was originally just an irrelevant news, but Lu Zhao noticed that the doll stained with blood on the ground in the picture looked particularly familiar.

Lu Zhao suddenly remembered something.

The elevator door opened, and he quickly walked out of the building, and at the same time took out his mobile phone to search for the information of the dead in this news. In this era of information explosion, nothing is not found on the Internet.

Lu Zhao clicked on a forum post, and soon, the photos of He Xin and Zhao Ziyuan popped out.

In the darkness, the fluorescent prints of the mobile phone screen shone on Lu Zhao's face, making his face look particularly pale. The two deceased people in the photo were clearly seen by her mother and daughter who beat the villain in front of Grandma Li's stall last night!

Lu Zhao put away his cell phone and looked at the street in front. When he remembered the scene of the mother and daughter disappearing in the dark alley, he suddenly got goosebumps.

No wonder Grandma Li revealed a strange look in her every move. She could tell at a glance that her life was not long. It turned out... she was a ghost!

Lu Zhao suddenly remembered what Uncle Zhong said, "A person who dies abnormally will turn into ghosts and wander in the dead place and cannot leave after death. If you want to be liberated, you must find someone to replace him."

Lin Yue'e has died for more than 20 years, but in these years, she has never killed anyone, even those who once lived in 05 households.

So... the evil spirit who really entangled me is not Lin Yue'e, but that Grandma Li?!

Now that I want to make a stranger believe in me, then what Grandma Li said must have hidden many traps. I don’t tell any lies, but I don’t tell all the truth. Only by mixing the truth and falsehood can I deceive Lu Zhao.

Therefore, the rules in the building are true, and it is true that you can't live for three months. But don't believe Uncle Zhong, if you can't get close to the fifth floor, it may not be true.

Thinking of this, Lu Zhao suddenly felt that he had grasped something: Yes, Fifth Floor!

From the fact that Uncle Zhong helped him, we can see that he is a hidden master; and he lives on the fifth floor, maybe it is because the woman in red in her dream also died on the fifth floor.

Although I have not mentioned the woman in red to Uncle Zhong, judging from the current situation, they are on their own side and helping them.

Therefore, Grandma Li did not let herself approach Uncle Zhong, but approached the fifth floor. The purpose of her doing this was to confuse herself!

Lu Zhao increasingly believed that his speculation was close to the truth. Although he didn't know why Grandma Li wanted to kill her, what was more important than this was that he had to find a way to spend tonight.

He raised his head and looked at the sky: the dark clouds covered the moon, as if they were about to fall.

Lu Zhao remembered the words of the woman in red: the round mirror is broken, the mouse counts money, the cat comes to mourn, the clouds cover the moon, and the black and white tears, and even the gods cannot save it.

In addition to the last two sentences, the ominous signs she predicted before have come true one by one.

Lu Zhao knew that he had to hurry up.

According to what Uncle Zhong said, he came to the intersection alone.

The ancients believed that crossroads were not only connected in all directions, but also communicated with yin and yang. They could use the differences in yin to deliver paper money to the hands of ancestors.
