I Wasn't Born Lucky

"That's the feeling," Yen Ziqiang stopped after taking a single step, and said to Xiao Li, "But I can't find the source of my gaze, and I dare not, what if I find a ghost? "

This room is not very big, but there are many places where ghosts can hide.

From the wardrobe to the drawer, from the bottom of the bed to the toilet, every place is a place where ghosts like to hide.

Even Xiao Li couldn't find out the source of his gaze for a while.

But he is willing to accept the challenge, especially to explore Donnie Yen's room - he first looked for it from the closet, opened the door, and found that it was empty inside, only the white bathrobes that came with the hotel were hanging on it.

Then came the desk drawer, which contained a pair of chopsticks and nothing else.

Next is the bottom of the bed...

Donnie Yen was stunned at first, but soon joined the search queue under Xiao Li's signal.

Although his hands were always trembling slightly when checking the shower head, he was able to hold himself steady and did not leave the room directly.

But even if several people have been searching, there is still no clue.

In the end, the feeling became stronger and stronger, as if there was an invisible "person" standing behind him, watching his every move closely.

Xiao Li stood up from the carpet, bent slightly to wipe off the dust on his knees, looked around the room, and finally came to the window.

Donnie Yen was behind him, panting heavily: "If you really can't find it, just...forget it..."

Xiao Li suddenly reached out and tore off the bed cover, and the yellowed curtain fell to the ground, revealing the transparent glass.

It was pitch black outside the window, with no moon or stars, only traces of raindrops hitting the glass, and the rainwater flowed down the glass to the window sill, where it mixed with the soil that had not been wiped for a long time, forming a small puddle of dirty water.

At the same time, due to the light in the room, the glass also reflects the scene inside.

Two people, one person and three people stood in front of the glass window, the incandescent lamp above their heads exuded a pale halo, as if adding special effects and distorting the space——

and many more.

incandescent lamp.

Xiao Li finally knew what he had overlooked:

overhead.

He turned and looked up at the light bulb hanging from the ceiling of the room.

In Xiao Li's room, the outside of the lamp is an oval transparent lampshade with the light bulb inside; but here it is directly exposed, and the most important point is...

The metal conductor under the bulb is facing down, and the glass casing is facing up.

In other words, the light bulb is not conducting electricity at all!

But it is now lit.

Since the top of the head is a blind spot, Xiao Li instinctively ignored it when he first entered.

Perhaps because he noticed Xiao Li's gaze, the light bulb began to flicker automatically, one on and one off, with an interval of three seconds, as if playing with the emotions of the reincarnated person.

Xiao Tu screamed, she covered her ears and burrowed into Yen Ziqiang's arms.

Donnie Yen hugged his sister, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and ran out the door.

A face emerges from the light bulb, with the light bulb as its head, its forehead is smooth, wrapped around the light bulb like a wraith, and a single leg protrudes from the metal conductor.

Deng Gui seemed very happy to see Donnie Yen's reaction.

The light bulb floated and sank in the air, and even the light became unstable. It looked at the only living person in the room.

Xiao Li tried to stretch out his arms and fished for the top of his head, but there was still a considerable distance between his fingertips and the light bulb.

The lamp ghost showed off his light bulb head proudly, and then it sank down suddenly as if seductive.

——It is already imagining the funny scene of this human jumping up to catch it, but being thrown away by its sudden height.

But in fact, to its surprise, the human stood there, watching it quietly.

At the same time, a strand of black hair emerged from his pocket and curled towards the light bulb.

Tan Li's hair was infinitely extended, trying to roll down the light bulb suspended in the air, but the light bulb was shocked, and moved very flexibly to avoid the attack of this strand of hair.

And because of the appearance of the puppet, the lamp ghost became excited, and it provoked without hesitation: "Come again, if you have the ability, see if you can catch me—"

Before it could spit out the last word of this sentence, it saw the ceiling shake above its head.

A huge, seaweed-like hairnet that was enough to cover fell down, like a black spider web, firmly locking the light bulb that had nowhere to escape.

Fagui is different from the hair of ghosts such as Tanli. Tanli can only extend his own hair, while Fagui's body is a wig that can expand without limit until it covers the entire room.

Behind Fa Gui, a weeping woman appeared beside the bed, looking like she was enjoying the show.

Xiao Li shook little Huang Ben at the lamp ghost: "Before you provoke others next time, remember to investigate."

Lantern Ghost: "Wait, wait—"

Fa Gui rolled it up impatiently with his frizzy hair, and threw it to Xiao Li in the alley-oop.

Xiao Li caught it steadily.

Caught off guard, Deng Gui had no choice but to change the object of his pleading: "Wait—you are listening to me!"

Xiao Li opened the window, made a gesture of throwing a shot put, and threw the light bulb in his hand out of the window.

Like a firefly in the dark night, the bright light bulb drew a graceful arc and landed in the puddle in front of the window.

Xiao Li's arm strength is limited, and he can't throw it far, so he can still see the whole process of the lamp ghost falling into the puddle while standing at the window.

Sewage splashed everywhere.

The next second, the lamp ghost's scream pierced the rain curtain: "I'm dirty, I'm not clean anymore!"

Xiao Li: "..."

Xiao Li:? ? ?

A light bulb...is there still such a thing as unclean?

This lamp ghost really felt that it was not clean. It flew up from the sewage mixed with mud at the window, and the earthy yellow liquid dripped down the bottom of the light bulb to the window sill, leaving stains one after another. **** Frustration.

It didn't choose to fly away, but returned to Xiao Li and stopped in the air.

The lamp ghost looks very bright like this, and the light is soft, which is much more convenient than a flashlight.

Although Zhou Ying can control the lighting of the mobile phone before, it is inconvenient to consume the power of the mobile phone after all...

Xiao Li originally wanted to get rid of the lamp ghost, but now seeing its behavior, he had other thoughts in his mind, and asked the other party: "Will you come with me?"

The lamp ghost glanced at him faintly, and answered irrelevantly: "I have a cleanliness."

Xiao Li choked on the seriousness of the words, and hesitated for a while: "So...?"

The lamp ghost shook its light bulb head, it looked at itself, then at Xiao Li, and then at the hair ghost on top of its head - not daring to say no, it lowered its head and said: "You have to wash me clean first, so that it is spotless. kind of."

Xiao Li asked for its opinion: "Can I put you in the washing machine?"

The lamp ghost refused: "No."

It takes a gentle hand wash!

In the end, Xiao Li washed it for the lamp ghost. After washing it, he shook it and dried it with a paper towel. The glass surface of the light bulb shone with oil, which was better than before, as if it had a second spring.

While he was doing these things, the brothers and sisters of Zhen Ziqiang, as the owners of the house, fell silent on the sidelines.

...Things, can they still develop like this? !

Before those 5 minutes, he was frightened by the lamp ghost and ran away; and after 5 minutes, he watched Hercule bathing the lamp ghost...

Even if you approach science, you dare not shoot like this.

Xiao Li also washed his hands, said goodbye to Yen Ziqiang who was still stunned, and left with the lamp ghost. Before leaving, he thoughtfully closed the door for them.

The lamp ghost led the way in front of Xiao Li, looking like a floating street lamp from a distance.

Xiao Li is very satisfied with its effect. It is indeed better than flashlights and mobile phones. It can illuminate a wide range, and it is fully automatic without worrying about it.

After leaving Donnie Yen's room, Xiao Li didn't go back to his place, but went to Wei Ning's room first.

At this time, Peng Yue was no longer mopping the floor in the hall, the mop was placed at the corner of the stairs, the hall was empty, only slight movements came from the various rooms, probably woken up by the scream of the lamp ghost ——But since it barked from outside the window, no one jumped out of the window, and all the doors were closed.

Everyone went to Wei Ning's room together before, but they didn't find anything. At that time, there were too many people, Xiao Li didn't like it very much, so he saved his mind to visit it again in the dead of night.

After the incident, the door lock was open, but the towels were left on the table casually, and the chairs also showed signs of movement. The most obvious thing was the door lock——

There were fingernail scratches on the door lock.

It's not difficult to imagine Wei Ning's situation at that time, he must be holding the door lock tightly, but he couldn't withstand the power of the evil spirit.

The evil ghost needs to pass through the door lock to enter the room. Does this also mean... its power is limited a lot?

Xiao Li recruited the lamp ghost, knelt down on one knee, pulled the door, and carefully studied the scratches on the lock.

The lamp ghost lit up for a while, and asked, "What are you looking at?"

"Clues." Xiao Li stroked the scratches with his hand, and replied without raising his head, and then he asked suddenly, "You ghosts... can you tell who is the evil ghost?"

"As long as the power is above me, if it wants me to be confused, then I won't be able to tell." The lamp ghost is very honest at this time, it floats and sinks in the air, and it gets closer to look more carefully.

Even if the ghost can catch the lamp ghost, it is obviously impossible for the lamp ghost to know the real body of the evil ghost.

But this is not surprising, dungeon rules can not allow such a large loophole.

Xiao Li withdrew his attention, he had been kneeling in this position for too long, his legs were a little weak when he got up, so he took advantage of the situation to support the wall.

——The wall is not smooth, but uneven.

Xiao Li bent down and reflected his fingers on the wall. He lay down on the ground without hesitation, trying to imitate Wei Ning's scene at that time.

If the evil spirit wants to enter through the door as a human being, it must knock on the door first.

Wei Ning would answer at first, but he must have noticed that something didn't open the door, so the evil spirit would forcefully unlock the door from the outside.

Then his posture should be...

Xiao Li awkwardly pressed the door lock with both hands, and at the same time put his feet on the door frame, his whole body leaned against the door, and his head was squeezed against the crack of the door in the corner.

He squinted his eyes, and saw blood sprayed out and a strange mark in the gap between his feet.

Like a "one" at the raised arms in this sitting position.

One, Lin Ruo?

one……

Based on this posture, Xiao Li checked the vicinity for a while, and picked up a button from the edge of the carpet.

There are broken threads on the buttons, obviously ripped off by someone alive.

Xiao Li closed his eyes slightly, recalled everyone, and finally locked his target on Jiang Linwen.

... This button belongs to Jiang Linwen.

He wore trousers with a high waist and always tucked the bottom of his shirt into them, so if a button was missing no one would notice.

And because of the tricky angle, this button was stuck under the carpet in the corner, and no one could find it during the day.

Xiao Li pursed his lips, put away the buttons, and closed the door of Wei Ning's room.

The corridor was very dark, only the light bulbs floating in the air were reflected in his pupils, like a handful of lights that would never go out.

On the third day, the weather still did not improve.

There was no need to carry light bulbs during the day, so Xiao Li sent the lamp ghost back to the little yellow book.

With Wei Ning's lessons learned, no one stayed in the room this time.

Even the two white men who were always outside the reincarnated camp came down, sitting far away in the corner of the hall, watching the light rain outside the window, not knowing what they were thinking.

The rest of the reincarnations sat together, each looking at each other thoughtfully.

Shen Yanzhi sat beside Xiao Li and poured him a cup of hot water.

The dense mist rose and penetrated into Xiao Li's eyes, and he looked at the others calmly.

A few people next to them were chatting about last night, Jiang Linwen spoke first: "Did you hear the screams last night? It seems that it was not just a simple cry, I heard a few words like 'dirty' or something."

Zheng Yi said absentmindedly: "I heard, there were footsteps. I was sleepy at the time, but I was woken up by a howl."

As he spoke, he covered his mouth and yawned again, looking at Xiao Li intentionally or unintentionally.

Zheng Yi didn't need to ask, he knew that the ghosts would make such strange noises, it must be that Xiao Li had left the main force and acted alone.

"That's a strange voice, I've never heard such a voice..."

"It's a lonely wild ghost on the mountain." Seeing that Xiao Li didn't speak, Ye Zeqing knew that the other party didn't want outsiders to know the truth. He forced an explanation for Xiao Li, and planned to ask him for news afterwards, "Something is wrong. The earthbound spirit who is willing to leave the land of death will repeat the most impressive sentence before his death at night."

"Is that so..."

Jiang Linwen looked as usual, confused and worried.

Xiao Li's eyes flicked across his face, and then moved to Peng Yue.

Peng Yue, Mr. Hu and Lin Ruo sat across from Xiao Li. At this time, they all looked listless and trembled from time to time.

Xiao Li suddenly opened his mouth to break the frozen atmosphere between the two parties: "Miss Peng."

Peng Yue didn't realize it all at once, and it was Lin Ruo who pushed her, and she said as if she had just woken up from a dream: "Ah...what's the matter?"

Xiao Li asked tentatively: "Miss Peng, how long did you mop the floor last night?"

Lin Ruo asked in astonishment, "Mopping the floor?"

Mr. Hu frowned even more and looked at Peng Yue. He keenly smelled something bad.

But Peng Yue, as the person involved, looked confused and asked, "What mopping the floor?"

Xiao Li raised half of his eyebrows, and Yen Ziqiang's voice came from his right: "Didn't you mop the floor in the hall in the middle of the night last night? You were still laughing weirdly."

His words were earth-shattering, like adding water to an oil pan, making everyone else boil.

Peng Yue stood up, her voice was hoarse due to being too nervous: "I never came down to mop the floor, don't spit blood, who would mop the floor at night? Are you dazzled?"

Xiao Tu: "But we all saw it, big sister."

Peng Yue still denied it: "Impossible! I went straight back to my room to sleep last night. How could a normal person mop the floor in this situation?"

After she finished speaking, Donnie Yen didn't answer.

His attitude was already obvious, and it was the same as what Peng Yue said - normal people don't mop the floor in the early morning, so those who mop the floor in the early morning... can only be ghosts.

Peng Yue's face turned pale: "How did you guys see me mopping the floor? It's impossible."

"Yes, yes, we didn't hear the sound, but the screams outside the window last night scared me." Mr. Hu echoed from his subordinates.

Donnie Yen hesitated for a moment—going to do laundry in the middle of the night seemed to be something normal people could not do.

He himself was because of ghosts in the room, but Hercule didn't know why.

Answering like this will definitely put him in trouble, maybe he can make a confession with Hercule...

For a person like Hercule, if you give him a look, he should understand, right?

He was struggling with how to give a knowing look, but Xiao Li said calmly: "I saw it on the way back from washing clothes."

Donnie Yen: "..."

How dare you say that without a confession!
