Escape from the Ghost

From the projection under the tree, footsteps suddenly sounded, and the person who came came said loudly: "If he is the one who betrayed Song Muzhi, I think no one is more painful than him, guarding a dead soul, living every day. In the curse that General Song may be resurrected. By the way, you have to cover it up and cover it tightly, always guarding against being discovered by you, and get rid of the old man and seek revenge on him."

Song Yi's red and yellow eyes slowly walked into the light, shining with a different kind of brilliance, the surrounding air instantly quieted down, Zhao You stared at him motionlessly, too panicked to say a complete sentence: "You are... ..."

Li Zhaoling said flatly, "The host."

Zhao You frowned and stared: "The host has appeared?"

Song Yi approached Zhao You and said, "You can figure things out with your toes, but what are you doing awkwardly? In short, you ancient people are really straightforward when thinking about problems, and you don't know how to turn around at all." He said It was light, and the tone was full of sarcasm.

Zhao You said in a deep voice: "It seems like a brat who doesn't know how to be polite."

Song Yi ignored him, yawned loudly, stretched his waist and said, "Have you guys had enough trouble? It's time to break up the stall in the middle of the night. The party is over, it's time to go home and sleep."

Zhao You's gaze sank, and he suddenly took the guitar bag, opened the zipper and pulled out a golden silk thread. The silk thread shone brightly, like a controlled snake, and flew straight towards Song Yi.

Song Yi froze on the spot, feeling that he was already a man if he didn't scream out loud. He glared at the man who promised to save his life, and the Zhan Tianji flashed white light in response, and the silk thread broke into several knots and scattered On the ground, it turned into a group of glowing bugs, and fled in all directions.

Song Yi twitched the corner of his mouth bluntly, feeling as if his whole body was itching, he took a step behind Li Zhaoling calmly, and said with disgust: "Song Muzhi is really Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, anyone dares to stay by his side." .”

Zhao You: "Shut up!"

Xia Houyong: "Shut up!"

Song translation: "..."

Song Yi looked at Xia Houyong suspiciously, then at Zhao You, and finally signaled to Li Zhaoling meaningfully with the corner of his eyes, "I just wanted to help you, clean up this mess by myself."

Li Zhaoling: "..."

Zhao You put away the guitar, and said to Li Zhaoling, "So vigilant? It seems...you really treat him differently."

Song Yi's heart trembled slightly, staring at Li Zhaoling's expressionless side face.

Zhao You reinstalled the guitar, put it back on his shoulder, and said, "Don't tell me, it was just a coincidence that we met here."

Xia Houyong said: "Chen Wei died, and his soul was unloaded by Nether."

As soon as Zhao You heard it, the calmness that had been scattered in his eyes faded instantly, and he changed his expression and said, "Why did he die? Where did he die?"

Li Zhaoling said: "Since you are familiar with him, it is impossible for you to be unaware, why bother to ask?"

When Zhao You heard this, his face became even more ugly, and he said: "I only know that he has been haunted by the ghost recently, and I wanted to get closer to him, at least to protect him for a while, but I didn't expect..." He looked at Xia Houyong with low eyes, and said , "Is it in the hospital?"

Xia Houyong nodded.

Li Zhaoling said: "It seems that you are very clear about his affairs, so who does he associate with? Who is in the family? You should know all his weaknesses? Tell me, who is likely to make him willingly sacrifice his soul? ?”

Zhao You looked at Li Zhaoling, and said viciously, "Why do you have to be so aggressive and provocative, acting like a villain! If you want to know something, I'll take you to see it with your own eyes." After he finished speaking, he led everyone out of the alley go.

Song Yikou raised the corner of his mouth lightly, leaned into Li Zhaoling's ear, and said in a low voice: "Retreat to advance, Mr. Zhaoling is brilliant!"

Li Zhaoling replied coldly, "You're welcome."

They went out of the alley, turned a corner and saw an old residential building.The residential building is no more than four floors, next to the dirty wall, there is a distance between two people side by side. Outside the wall is a foul-smelling ditch, and the smell wafts and fills the entire small courtyard.

Song Yi held her breath, and asked Li Zhaoling in a low voice: "What kind of person were you before? It doesn't look like a good reputation."

Before Li Zhaoling could answer, he heard Zhao You's indifferent voice from the front, saying: "Dirty, vicious, self... Are these enough?"

Song Yi glanced at Zhao You with dissatisfaction, and muttered, "Eavesdropping on other people's conversation, you are not much better?"

Zhao You stopped in his tracks, his eyes were gloomy: "Say one more word, and I'll dumb you down immediately."

Eldest Young Master Song snuggled up behind Li Zhaoling silently, and with the attitude of losing but not losing, he said sourly to Li Zhaoling: "He wants to poison me."

Li Zhaoling thought about it seriously: "Very good."

Song translation: "..."

Xia Houyong coughed in embarrassment, and said, "Don't eavesdrop, it's just this alley, you're talking too loudly."

Song translation: "..."

"Here we are." Zhao You stopped in front of a unit door, went up to the second floor and took out a spare key from under the mat to open the door. As soon as the door was opened, a musty smell came over his face.

The living room is only about seven to eight square meters, and as soon as a few people enter the room, it fills up the living room.

Song Yi frowned, opened the window and said, "Why does it feel like this house hasn't been lived in for a long time?"

Before the words fell to the ground, a green light flashed on the branch outside the window, and with a "meow", a beast that looked like a cat and not like a cat rushed towards him like a ghost in the dark night. Song Yi was dumbfounded on the spot, this "cat" The whole body is black and bright, the ears are long and drooping on the neck, the eyes are two empty black holes, and two fires are lit, only a white fluff stained with blood is around the mouth.

"Song translation!"

Li Zhaoling stepped forward to protect him in his arms, and with a wave of his arm, the animal "meowed" and rolled twice in the yard, then got up and jumped onto the branch outside the window.

Li Zhaoling stared at the will-o'-the-wisp in the dark night, and said, "It's a ghost."

Zhao You said coldly: "There is a real animal..."

The flaming eyes of You Animal seem to be able to pass through the darkness. It and Li Zhaoling looked at each other for two seconds, then bent down, jumped, and disappeared into the night.

Song Yi withdrew his gaze and asked, "What is a secluded animal?"

Li Zhaoling said: "Some animals that died tragically, because they were persecuted during their lifetime, their bodies were incomplete and their souls were broken, so they cannot enter reincarnation and can only be turned into ghost animals."

Xia Houyong's eyes were low, as if he was thinking: "These secluded animals should be suppressed at the bottom of the land, and few of them can move freely, and...the one just now actually has a body." He glanced at Li Zhaoling, black blood It was dripping down the back of his hand, and his expression suddenly changed, "Your hand..."

Seeing that Li Zhaoling's face was pale, Song Yi quickly lifted Li Zhaoling's arm to check. There was a bloody gash on the forearm of the suit, and the black and red blood stained the white shirt. He said nervously, "What should I do? Do I need to bandage it?" ?”

Li Zhaoling brushed Song Yi's hand, retracted his arm and said, "It's okay, it will heal in a while."

Song Yi was full of guilt, and said seriously, "Take off the suit and let me see. If you don't take it off, I'll take it off myself." After speaking, he threw himself on Li Zhaoling with all his teeth and claws.

Li Zhaoling: "???"

Zhao You: "..."

Xia Houyong watched happily from the side, and added embellishment: "Oh, you see Xiao Song cares about you so much, why don't you take it off and let him see it! What's so awkward about a man showing his arms!"

Li Zhaoling glared at Xia Houyong, and scolded Song Yi: "Stop making trouble, I'll just take it off."

Only then did Song Yi stop, watching Li Zhaoling take off his suit jacket, the white shirt was ironed to fit, and the contours of his chest and arm muscles were clearly visible.He frowned visibly when the sleeves fell down.Song Yi took his hand and gently tugged at his clothes, staring at him dumbfounded.

The black blood on the shirt had solidified, and the skin on the forearm under the rotten sleeve was as clean as ever, without any trace of injury. Song Yi grabbed Li Zhaoling's arm and looked over it carefully, as if he had discovered a new continent.

Li Zhaoling said coldly, "Have you seen enough?"

Song Yi's ears turned red, and he murmured, "You...you really aren't human..."

Zhao You: "..."

Xia Houyong: "..."

One sentence seriously injured three people, Li Zhaoling withdrew his arms and said, "As long as you have a strong physique that attracts ghosts, you should worry more about yourself." He walked to the tea table, picked up a stack of envelopes on the table, flipped through it, and said ,"What's this?"

Zhao Youhuan folded his arms, leaned against the door and replied coldly: "Debt."

Xia Houyong walked over, took the envelope and looked at it and said, "The address of the letter is very remote." He took out the letter paper from an opened envelope and said, "Chen Wei has been donating money for poor students...these... ...Do you want to thank him?"

Song Yi translated a letter and said, "Look carefully, the last paragraph is clear, it's not a thank you, it's a reminder to donate."

Xia Houyong didn't want to believe it, so he flipped through a few more letters and said, "That's not what it means... Look at the first few pages, it's all about gratitude."

Song Yi rolled his eyes, put down the letter, and said, "If you want to be restrained, you should first raise your voice. Our ancestors only have this kind of routine, and you still can't see it? With your professional level, no wonder you have to be in public office all the time..."

Xia Houyong looked at the envelopes spread out across a coffee table, and said, "How many do you have?"

Zhao You rolled his eyes, with a calm expression: "In the past two months, there are a total of 150 letters, and there are countless phone calls, too many to count."

Xia Houyong walked around the room, there were eight single beds squeezed between the two bedrooms, but only one bed had futons, and the others were all empty. He asked, "Is there no one living here with him?"

"No. Since he got sick, he has always been out of breath at night, and he is usually sick. The management of the bar dormitory is also chaotic. No one wants to live with him, and no one will move when he moves."

Song Yi put down the envelope, with a dignified expression, and said, "You have to donate so much money even though you are terminally ill?"

Zhao You sneered, and said: "In this world, there are really such fools. Chen Wei came out of the mountains. He said that it would be difficult for him to go to school at that time. He was lucky. He was admitted to the city and became an engineer, earning a lot of money. , but in the past few years, I have donated a lot of bits and pieces. Later, I didn’t expect that when I fell ill, my wife left him and left. He can no longer do high-intensity work, so he can only do some moving at night. It’s a good job. But even now, as long as I have some free money, I’ll keep going.”

He walked over, picked up an envelope from the table, and said: "After all, he has a limited income. Once the money can't keep up, the envelope will be like snowflakes. He is dying of illness, but his love has become a blood hole. He couldn't stop it, and then he gnawed him until he was skinny. He felt sad, and felt that his life was hopeless, and the disease would be more difficult to cure."

Li Zhaoling asked: "You said... what does it mean that he is haunted by the ghost?"

"When I met Chen Wei, I felt that the smell on his body was not right, like a ghost, but the breath was very weak."

Li Zhaoling probed: "So you went to work in the bar, the dark night is good, you thought that beast would hide in the dark."

Zhao You didn't speak, dropped the envelope, leaned back against the wall and nodded.

Li Zhaoling said: "It seems that you helped him keep his job, including his place of residence." He paused, looked at the envelope on the table, and said, "You don't even donate money to him. Bar?"

Zhao You stood aside, neither admitting nor denying it.The dim light hit his face, he turned slightly, his eyes were bright or dark.

Li Zhaoling said in a deep voice: "Zhao You, what is your relationship with him? Why do you help him like this?"

The room suddenly fell silent, everyone was watching Zhao You, waiting for his answer.

Zhao You's complexion changed slightly, he turned his head and looked at Li Zhaoling coldly, and said, "It's none of your business? I've seen the place, you can go!"

Xia Houyong stood there without moving. He stared at Zhao You without moving, waiting for his answer without giving up. He watched, but found that Zhao You's face was getting paler and paler. He shook his head and asked, "Why do you gone?"

Zhao You suddenly curled up and panted violently, he stepped back slowly, let his body lean against the corner of the wall and bowed together, his forehead was wet with sweat, his brows were tightly knit, and he said in a hoarse voice: "You... you guys go. "

Xia Houyong looked nervous and wanted to support him.He shook off Xia Houyong's hand, covered his chest and shouted: "Don't touch me, you go!"

Li Zhaoling stood aside, with a flat tone, and said, "It's not trauma, it can only be Gu poison."

When Zhao You heard this, his expression became even uglier, and he raised his head to stare at Li Zhaoling.

Seeing that Zhao You was silent, Xia Houyong quickly asked, "You have been poisoned, who poisoned you?" He paused, and asked again, "Could it be... that's why you have been hiding and refusing to see people?"

"Hmph..." A trace of sarcasm crossed Zhao You's pale face, and he said every word: "Stop...don't be so self-righteous, from the moment you left without saying goodbye, our fate has long been settled , Xia Houyong, I don’t need to worry about whether I live or die, just get out of here!"

His hand covering his chest trembled slightly, he gritted his teeth and looked at Li Zhaoling, and said, "It doesn't feel good to be hurt by a ghost beast, right? Although we people don't... don't bleed, but the wound will soak The rotten flesh is rotting away bit by bit, I advise you to heal it as soon as possible, don't...don't stand here and make sarcastic remarks."

Li Zhaoling replied coldly: "If you don't hold it, you don't need to worry about it."

Song Yi paused in his heart, and looked at Li Zhaoling in surprise. After a closer look, he found that Li Zhaoling's face was becoming more and more ugly, and cold sweat flowed down his neck into his shirt. He asked in a deep voice, "So, you were lying just now. Me, make me feel at ease?"

"No problem."

"Hmm..." Zhao You snorted coldly, and leaned all his strength against the wall, his small face was white and bloodless.

Xia Houyong said anxiously: "You have always been so awkward, I will take you to find Su Ningzi." After he finished speaking, he took Zhao You's hand and was about to hug him.

"I'm not going..." Zhao You pushed him away, raised the ring on the middle finger of his right hand, with a blue silver needle standing in the middle of the ring, pointed at Xia Houyong and said, "Don't...don't force me to take action .”

Xia Houyong said resolutely: "It's up to you, if you don't like me, just stab me."

He pulled Zhao You's arm and hugged him horizontally. Zhao You had no strength for a long time. Holding his last breath, he stabbed the needle into Xia Houyong's heart.

Xia Houyong snorted coldly, but looked at Zhao You with a smile on his face, provocative.

Zhao You was unconscious, and said intermittently: "I... I said, I will make a move."

"I know." He tightened his arms, hugged Zhao You even tighter, and said with the corner of his mouth raised, "I knew you were a white-eyed wolf."
