Postmortem Appointment - C79
I looked at my surroundings in fear. Suddenly, I felt a chilly wind blowing in my surroundings. This wind seemed to be able to penetrate into one’s bone marrow. It was so cold that it was bone-piercing.
Only then did I notice that the scenery around me had changed. In front of me was not the lobby of the hotel, but an unfamiliar wilderness. There were also countless corpses lying on the ground, looking extremely miserable.
I was so scared that I almost shouted out loud and hurriedly covered my mouth. I wanted to walk to Bai Hua’s side, but I realised that I couldn’t move my legs at all.
I lowered my head in shock and realised that the head of the corpse had disappeared from my sight. Blood kept flowing out from my bald neck and formed a pool of blood on the ground. Meanwhile, his hand was tightly grabbing onto my thigh, preventing me from moving.
My heart started beating rapidly. I wanted to run but I couldn’t. I couldn’t even shout if I wanted to. I could only continue to look around in terror. At this moment, the surroundings were filled with smoke.
Suddenly, I felt a cold wind behind my back, followed by a cold wind coming from all directions. I shivered, trying my best to free myself from the body that was holding my legs, but my hands felt like they were stuck in my legs, unable to break free no matter how hard I tried.
“Kill them, kill them!” This voice suddenly spiraled by my ear. Due to a vicious curse, it instantly made people flustered and frightened to the point of collapse.
Suddenly I felt something slam into me behind me, and I turned my head to find a half-faced man in armor, covered in blood, holding an axe and swinging it at the top of my head.
My heart skipped a beat, but I couldn’t move my leg at all, so I could only quickly take out the Talisman Paper that Bai Hua gave me and threw it at it.
What I didn’t expect was that this fellow would immediately stop moving and stay in the same position as if he was a statue. I watched him turn into dust in front of my eyes.
When I reacted once again, I was already back in the hall with cold sweat pouring down my face. Bai Hua walked in front of me and looked at me worriedly with a face full of suspicion.
Just then, Li Mei walked over and she curiously sized me up before asking in surprise: “Earlier, I saw you talking about a Talisman Paper that was thrown in this direction, but the direction doesn’t seem to be hitting me. What do you want to fight?”
“Does this hotel always have people who stop when they’re walking, with faces full of terror, and then flee in fright, just like what happened to me just now?”
I ignored her question and wiped away the cold sweat on my face as I asked.
Li Mei looked at me in shock, then nodded her head, a look of fear on her face, she lowered her head and said: “This hotel was inherited from my mother, I asked her about it, she guaranteed that there will never be a ghost, but since three months ago, there have been a lot of guests with similar situations.”
That kind of shocking and cruel scene, I will never forget it in my lifetime. That’s why I wanted to find someone to help me deal with it, but after looking for a few times, I found that it was a bunch of liars who only know how to talk. That’s why I was so cautious when I first saw you guys.
“That’s unlikely. If it’s really as serious as what Zhang Yu said, then it should have been done a long time ago. Why did it only explode recently? Has anyone died here before, Manager Li? ”
Bai Hua asked after pondering for a moment, her eyes were filled with suspicions, obviously the complexity of the matter had far exceeded what she had imagined.
“No, I didn’t know that before, but ever since I took over this place, nothing happened here. I also don’t know why there would be ghosts here.”
Li Mei sighed lightly and drank the black coffee under the blanket, but she did not seem to feel any pain at all.
This time, I was more cautious than before. After putting away the Talisman Paper in my pocket, I continued to walk around the hall a few more times, but the situation just now did not happen again. did not say anything.
“I keep having the feeling that the thing that happened here was done by a person.” After inspecting it for a moment, I moved closer to Bai Hua and said.
“I also think it’s a bit similar. Otherwise, why would such a heavy grievance burst forth with such power and wait until now? Isn’t it strange that such a heavy grievance still doesn’t kill people?” I never thought about what exactly caused this. Could this really be an ancient battlefield like what you saw just now? ”
After Bai Hua heard this, she nodded her head and said with a puzzled look. At the moment, her eyes were filled with confusion, obviously she had been troubled by this matter.
Not long after, Li Mei came over again. It could be seen that because of the incident with the ghost, there was nothing left for Li Mei to do, so she was actually not very busy.
Unknowingly, Li Mei’s attitude towards us had suddenly changed by a lot. We naturally know the reason, but on the surface, we are still calm and collected.
Bai Hua pretended to be an expert: “Manager Li, can you tell me, other than this, what other strange things happened here, and where does it usually happen? “When did it happen?”
“Master Bai, stop joking. This isn’t enough. The business is not even half as good as it was before. If this goes on, I’m afraid I’ll close down!”
After Li Mei heard what Bai Hua said, she became agitated, her eyes started to turn red, it was clear that this matter was not easy for her, and if it was not resolved, this woman might not have a good chance of getting it done. She quickly realised that she had lost her composure, and awkwardly shook her head and said: “I did not find anything else for the time being.”
I was slightly disappointed when I heard her words. Although the hotel belonged to her, I could tell that she wasn’t familiar with this matter.
So instead of counting on her, I walked over to the place where my hallucination had occurred, turned to her, and asked, “Has the floor been opened here?”
