After lifting the lid of the coffin, I started hunting ghosts to make money

【Chapter 36】

The elevator door slowly closed again.

The elevator began to descend slowly again, and finally reached the first floor.

When we reached the first floor, the elevator door opened with a 'ding' sound again.

Wu Xin subconsciously turned his head to look at Si Jiang again.

Si Jiang stood still, stretched out his hand to press the door close button, and then pressed it again to the top floor as before.

Wu Xinshi watched his movements, he was not scared to death by the ghost, but was about to be scared to death by Si Jiang.

Wu Xinshi asked tremblingly, "Guozi...no...big brother, what are you doing?"

Si Jiang stood where he was and didn't return.

Si Jiang stood quietly in the elevator, staring straight at the direction outside the elevator.

Wu Xinshi followed Si Jiang's line of sight and looked over.

Naturally, he couldn't see anything but the closed elevator doors.

The elevator began to rise again.

As the number of floors increased, the air in the elevator gradually became thinner.

I don't know if it was Wu Xinshi's illusion, but he seemed to feel that the temperature in the elevator was getting lower and lower.

Wu Xinshi was wondering, and turned to look at Si Jiang.

Wu Xinshi: "Guo... no, boss, don't you think it's getting colder and colder here?"

Si Jiang ignored it.

Si Jiang stared straight at the direction of the elevator door without blinking.

Wu Xinshi looked in the direction of the elevator door in bewilderment.

What's so good about it...

Wu Xinshi was puzzled and thought about it, but at this moment, Si Jiang who was standing beside him suddenly said, "Here we come."

Wu Xinshi was startled.

Wu Xinshi immediately turned his head again and looked in the direction of the elevator door.

But he still didn't see anything.

And just when Wu Xinshi was puzzled and was about to ask what was coming, at this moment, the elevator stopped suddenly.

Elevators stop for one reason only.

Someone is coming in.

But now in the middle of the night, who would take a haunted elevator with a dead person in the middle of the night?

Or, not a normal person.Such as Si Jiang and Wu Xinshi.

Or... it's a ghost.

The elevator stopped suddenly, and then, the elevator door slowly opened.

Just when the elevator door was about to open, Si Jiang said calmly, "Fu."

Wu Xinshi, who was at the side, was shocked when he heard the sound, and immediately took out a bright yellow talisman from the box.

Wu Xinshi asked nervously, "Where is it posted?"

Si Jiang: "The door."

Wu Xinshi didn't dare to hesitate, so he quickly posted it.

The moment the bright yellow talisman was pasted on the elevator door, Wu Xinshi felt as if he had touched something wet.

It was moist and cold.

Wu Xinshi was startled, and hurriedly lowered his head to look at the direction of the back of his hand.

Then...he saw a red bloodstain.

Seeing the red blood on the back of his hand, Wu Xinshi's feet went limp and he almost fell to the ground.

He raised his head, and was about to say something in a panic, but who knows, when he raised his head, he saw a few thin fingers stuck in the crack of the elevator door.

A few black and thin fingers kept struggling against the elevator door, twisting and trying to break free.

After breaking free for a while, finding that he couldn't break free, he simply prepared to break open the elevator door.

Si Jiang looked at the fingers stuck in the elevator door with a blank expression, and stretched out his hand directly to break them off.

The moment it was broken, there was a scream outside the elevator door.

That shrill voice was piercing and hair-raising.

Wu Xinshi was startled, and subconsciously asked, "What's that sound?"

Si Jiang had no expression on his face and no smile: "What do you think?"

Wu Xinshi shook his body, shut his mouth, and immediately dared not speak any more.

Si Jiang looked up at the elevator floor.

23th floor.

After reading it, he pressed the floor button of 24 with a blank face, ready to go upstairs.

Seeing this, Wu Xinshi hurriedly asked, "What are we going to do on the 24th floor now?"

Si Jiang: "Look for it."

Wu Xinshi: "Who are you looking for??"

He gave Wu Xinshi a cool look.

Wu Xinshi was silent.

The elevator slowly began to rise.

As the elevator ascended, the fingers clamped between the elevator doors also began to become twisted and hideous.

In a long and violent scream, there was only a 'click', and the scream stopped suddenly.

At the same time... the elevator reached the 24th floor.

Ding.

The door opened.

Si Jiang lifted his foot and walked out.

Seeing this, Wu Xinshi immediately prepared to follow, but was stopped by him.

Si Jiang: "You stay here."

Wu Xinshi: "Huh?"

Si Jiang didn't speak any more, turned around and left.

Wu Xinshi was so scared that he followed behind him without thinking.

Although Si Jiang is indeed scary now, at least he is still alive and can talk to him.

With these two points alone, Wu Xinshi felt that Si Jiang looked much cuter than that ghost.

However, Si Jiang suddenly turned his head after taking two steps forward.

When he looked back at Wu Xin behind him, he said coldly and mercilessly, "Follow me again, and I'll kill you."

Wu Xinshi was aggrieved.

Wu Xinshi wept and said, "But...but what if the ghost comes here?"

Si Jiang: "It can't touch you, as long as you don't listen to him, you'll be fine."

Wu Xinshi was dubious: "Really?"

Si Jiang was too lazy to continue talking nonsense.

Si Jiang: "Stand here, I'll come find you later."

Wu Xinshi: "Oh..."

Si Jiang turned around and left.

Wu Xinshi stood obediently, holding the iron box in his arms tightly.

Although holding the box, Wu Xinshi still felt unsafe.

So he took out the talismans from the box and stuck them on his body.

After covering his body all over, Wu Xinshi felt a little safer.

at the same time.

Si Jiang walked slowly towards the corridor, preparing to reach the 23rd floor.

The stairs are gloomy and silent, empty.

He walked forward quietly, raising his foot to go downstairs.

Just about to go downstairs, Wu Xinshi suddenly walked up from the direction of the 23rd floor.

Seeing Wu Xinshi holding the iron box in his arms, he panicked and said, "I...I saw him coming!"

Si Jiang didn't take his eyes off, nor blinked.

"Who's here?" he asked.

Wu Xinshi immediately replied without even thinking about it: "Ghost!"

Si Jiang: "Yes."

After Wu Xinshi returned, he glanced in the direction of the 23rd floor in a panic, then waved to Si Jiang and said, "Come with me, I know there is a place where it will never be found!"

Si Jiang stood still.

He asked blankly, "Where is it?"

Wu Xinshi was so anxious that he jumped on the spot and said: "There is no time to talk about this now. If you don't hurry up and find a place to hide, what if it finds you!"

Si Jiang was very calm.

Si Jiang: "No rush."

Wu Xinshi was startled.

Si Jiang: "It has already been found."

Wu Xinshi raised his head blankly and looked at Si Jiang.

Si Jiang raised his foot and walked towards him.

Then, taking advantage of his defenselessness, he grabbed his hand.

Wu Xinshi was startled, and asked, "Boss... what are you doing holding my hand? Shouldn't we be hiding now?"

Si Jiang looked cold.

He said in a deep voice, "I told him to stay on the 24th floor and not move."

Wu Xinshi was taken aback.

In the next second, Wu Xinshi laughed slowly.

No, it should not be called Wu Xinshi now, but... Ghost.

The grimace twitched for a moment, and then said with a little surprise: "Hehe, I didn't expect you to be quite smart..."

After saying that, he disappeared from the spot in an instant.

Si Jiang's eyes also seemed to be covered by some black cloth for an instant, and he couldn't see all of a sudden.

Si Jiang stood still.

At this time, Lu Zhaolu's voice suddenly appeared in his ear.

"Why are you standing here?"

"..."

"The ghost was caught by me just now, let's go."

"..."

After Lu Zhaolu finished speaking, he stretched out his hand in Si Jiang's direction, ready to lead him downstairs.

But Si Jiang still stood there without moving.

Hearing the unusually familiar voice next to his ear, Si Jiang slowly raised his hand and bit his finger.

Then, he stretched out his other hand and grabbed the other's wrist suddenly.

Lu Zhaolu was startled, and subconsciously wanted to break free.

Realizing that the other party was struggling, Si Jiang tugged at the corner of his mouth and said, "Didn't you want to take me downstairs? What are you struggling for?"

As he said with a blank face, he stretched out his hand with the bitten finger and wiped a line of blood on the opponent's wrist.

The man trembled and immediately let out a scream.

The cold ghostly air eroded into his body bit by bit along the direction of his wrist.

The 'man' was tormented by the ghostly energy in his body, he couldn't bear to live, he rolled on the ground crazily, looked back at Si Jiang in disbelief, and asked, "You...what the hell are you!"

The moment he screamed, Si Jiang's eyes immediately became clear.

After regaining clarity, the other party's true face was finally revealed in front of him.

Sure enough, it wasn't Lu Zhaolu.

It's just a ghost pretending to be Lu Zhaolu's voice.

Since he could only pretend to be Lu Zhaolu's voice, he even blindfolded Si Jiang's eyes with a ghostly aura to prevent him from seeing his real body.

As a thousand-year-old ghost, Si Jiang is very clear about these tricks of ghosts.

No one knows better than him.

These little tricks to fool 'people', he can come up with a hundred different ones.

Si Jiang looked down at the ghost rolling on the ground without moving.

He said, "Ghost."

He froze.

He looked back at Si Jiang in disbelief.

He froze for a moment, then got up without even thinking about it, turned around and ran away.

Si Jiang is probably the only one who can make the evil spirit turn around and run away in fright.

Ghosting turned around and ran, Si Jiang was not in a hurry at all, and heeled up.

Si Jiang's unhurried footsteps came from the stairs, and the dull footsteps echoed in the quiet stairwell, becoming extremely loud and permeating.

Oh no.

It's a ghost.

Si Jiang raised his foot step by step and walked forward. After two steps, he suddenly felt that there were more stairs under his feet.

From tier 10 to tier 11.

Si Jiang faltered and stopped suddenly.

According to the familiar routine, if you step on the 11th step, then this staircase will be repeated non-stop.

It's like a ghost hitting a wall.

Looking at the extra 11th step, Si Jiang twitched his lips.

Probably because he knew there was nothing he could do, so he simply trapped him, then turned his head to deal with another person.

Si Jiang had already guessed that this would be the case, so he agreed to bring Wu Xinshi over.

Then...by the way, he also told the ghost where Wu Xinshi was now.

After thinking about it, Si Jiang slowly took two steps back.

Then, without thinking, he turned and went downstairs, and walked towards the 24th floor.

At this time, Wu Xinshi, who was standing on the 24th floor, saw Si Jiang.

I saw Si Jiang striding towards him, and said with a solemn expression: "The ghost ran downstairs, let's go down and chase."

Wu Xinshi hugged the iron box, nodding his head.

After nodding, Wu Xinshi leaned over without thinking.

But the latter quickly retreated three steps away.

Si Jiang suddenly took three steps back, then stared straight at the talisman on Wu Xinshi's body, and said, "First take off the talisman on your body and put it in the box."

Because these talismans belonged to Si Jiang, Wu Xinshi didn't think too much when he heard this request.

While obediently uncovering the talismans on his body, Wu Xinshi said with embarrassment, "I'm sorry, I was too scared, so I took a few talismans and put them on my body..."

Si Jiang hummed lightly.

Wu Xinshi put his head down and carefully uncovered the talisman. In the direction Wu Xinshi hadn't seen, Si Jiang, who was standing not far in front of him, slowly showed a weird smile.

After Wu Xinshi uncovered all the talismans on his body, he asked, "Are we going downstairs now?"

Si Jiang hummed.

Si Jiang walked towards the elevator door, and then stopped suddenly when he was one meter away from the elevator.

Si Jiang said, "You go in first."

Although Wu Xinshi didn't understand why, he still walked in obediently.

After walking in, Si Jiang who was standing outside the elevator said quietly again: "You take off the talisman on the door and on the ground."

Wu Xinshi was about to do it subconsciously, but he suddenly remembered something.

Wu Xinshi raised his head and asked, "Why?"

Si Jiang frowned, a little impatiently: "Why are there so many? The ghosts have already gone down, so what's the use of sticking the talisman here?"

Wu Xinshi didn't even think about it: "But ghosts will come up again."

Si Jiang: "No."

Wu Xinshi muttered in a low voice: "Really? But I still don't think it's safe... Otherwise, when I really catch it..."

Wu Xinshi muttered and refused to reveal it, but at this moment, the voice of the commander standing outside the elevator suddenly became extremely sharp.

Si Jiang: "What are you dawdling in! I tell you to expose it!"

Wu Xinshi was wronged.

Wu Xinshi squatted down with tears in his eyes: "I'm just afraid..."

Just when Wu Xinshi squatted down to cut off the talisman according to what Si Jiang said, Si Jiang really arrived.

Wu Xinshi looked behind Si Jiang in a daze, and was stunned.

Wu Xinshi glanced at Si Jiang, then at the back of him, and immediately retracted the gesture of uncovering the talisman.

Wu Xinshi flinched back in horror, and asked, "You... who is the real one?"

Hearing the sound, 'Si Jiang' subconsciously turned around.

As soon as he turned around, he saw Si Jiang walking slowly towards him.

'Si Jiang' panicked, and hurriedly said: "Take off the talisman quickly, the ghost is coming! If we wait for him to come, we will both die!"

When Wu Xinshi heard this, he also panicked, and was about to listen to do this, but he suddenly realized something was wrong.

Huh... not right.

The ghost is coming, shouldn't it be a sticker, right?Why do you want to expose?

Thinking of this, Wu Xinshi stopped moving.

He also refused to reveal the talisman.

On the other side, Si Jiang was getting closer and closer to him.

The door leading to the stairs at the back has been blocked by him with a blood formation, and because of the amulet pasted on the elevator, the ghost can no longer enter.

So now, it can't go anywhere except the 24th floor.

Seeing that Si Jiang was getting closer and closer to him, he gritted his teeth resentfully, and gave him a sinister look.

The incandescent lamp above the head suddenly went out with a 'chi' sound.

It was pitch black in front of my eyes, and I couldn't see my fingers.

Wu Xinshi almost cried from fright.

Wu Xinshi tightly hugged the iron box in his arms, shrank in the elevator, not daring to move.

Wu Xinshi cried and said, "Boss, where are you? Boss?"

Si Jiang didn't return.

Si Jiang stood where he was, quietly looking around.

The ghost is gone.

He frowned.

...and hid in the house?

Si Jiang thought in bewilderment, so he simply turned around and knocked on the doors of the residents on this floor.

Naturally... no one would open it.

In the middle of the night, and in the haunted building, someone suddenly knocked on the door, who knows if it is a human or a ghost?

Si Jiang knocked on the doors of five families one after another, but no one opened the door.

He lost his patience.

So, at the sixth house, Si Jiang said coldly, "If you don't open the door, I'll just smash it."

The people in the house were silent for a while.

After a while, a woman in the room said reluctantly, "Who are you looking for?"

Si Jiang: "Look for ghosts."

There was a moment of silence in the room.

Si Jiang waited for a few seconds.

While waiting, he counted down the countdown: "Five...four...three..."

When Si Jiang was about to count to two, the woman in the room spoke again impatiently, "He's not here."

After all, I will add another sentence.

"He seems to hate women, so he won't go to a house with women. The house in 2408 is empty, you can go there and look for it."

Si Jiang raised his eyebrows, turned and left.

the other side.

After Wu Xinshi yelled several times without hearing Si Jiang's reply, he finally couldn't help it anymore, hugged the box, and slowly climbed out of the elevator.

Wu Xinshi called tremblingly: "Boss... Where are you, boss... Say something back, boss... I'm afraid if you don't speak..."

Si Jiang ignored it.

Wu Xinshi will cry completely.

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo..."

Wu Xinshi's miserable cry echoed in the aisle.

Si Jiang was annoyed when he heard this: "Shut up."

Although there was only the word shut up, but hearing the familiar voice and tone, Wu Xinshi's eyes lit up immediately, as if he had grasped for a life-saving straw.

Wu Xinshi: "Boss, are you there?"

Si Jiang: "Not here."

Wu Xinshi: "..."

Even so, Wu Xinshi followed the voice and slowly groped towards Si Jiang's direction.

At this moment, Si Jiang stood outside the door of 2408, frowning.

...he didn't know how to open the door.

Si Jiang glanced at the keyhole on the door, turned around, and asked Wu Xinshi, "Can you unlock it?"

Wu Xinshi scratched his head: "...Yes."

Wu Xinshi used to work as a lockpicker when he was poor.

Yes, it is the kind of small advertisement on the side of the road.

After Wu Xinshi finished speaking, he hesitated and said, "But the lights are gone, and I can't see anything..."

Si Jiang: "Where's the phone?"

Wu Xinshi: "..."

He forgot.

Two minutes later, the door of Room 2 was slowly pulled open from the outside.

The 'creaking' sound from the door was unusually loud in the dark night.

Wu Xinshi swallowed, took the phone to light it up, and stood close to him.

Si Jiang felt too clingy and said, "Stay away from me."

Wu Xinshi: "Oh..."

One person and one ghost entered the house, and the door closed instantly without any wind.

Wu Xinshi was shocked.

Wu Xin subconsciously said: "Big...big brother...men..."

Si Jiang: "I know, shut up."

Wu Xinshi: "...Oh."

Although wronged, Wu Xinshi couldn't help but feel inexplicably relieved when he heard Si Jiang's unusually rough voice.

Because in this way, Wu Xinshi can be sure that the person standing in front of him is indeed Guozi himself.

Si Jiang stepped into the room, raised his head and looked around the room.

The owner of the house seems to have moved away for a long time, so the floor is full of dust.The overhead lights are also covered with cobwebs.

Si Jiang glanced indifferently, then looked away.

He said in a deep voice, "Fu."

Wu Xinshi understood, and hurriedly took out a Zhenwu Divine Talisman.

Wu Xinshi asked, "Where to post it?"

Si Jiang: "The door."

Wu Xinshi: "Oh!"

Wu Xinshi obediently pasted the talisman on the door.

The moment he stuck the talisman, Wu Xinshi felt as if he had bumped into something.

He turned around in a panic.

The moment he turned his head, he felt as if he saw a pale grimace.

Wu Xinshi screamed, "Ghost—"

Si Jiang: "Shut up."

Wu Xinshi was silent.

Wu Xinshi closed his mouth aggrieved, and at this moment, a strange male voice suddenly came to his ears.

"I have no grievances with you, why did you come here to arrest me!"

"I'm innocent too, you know, I'm almost thirty, and I finally got a girlfriend, but she came here for my money! I really hate—"

"She cheated me of all my money, and I was penniless, so I could only live on the street. Later, when I went to work in the company, the company sent me here to repair the elevator, but because of a trance, I just fell down like that!"

"In order to hide this matter from the past, the company also said that I committed suicide—"

"I hate it so much, I hate it so much..."

Hearing that the other party had exactly the same experience as his own, Wu Xinshi's heart ached.

Wu Xinshi couldn't help but continued, "I... I was cheated of money by a woman just a few days ago... She kept saying that she liked me and thought I was cute, but it turned out...it was for money..."

Wu Xinshi stood where he was, talking to himself.

Si Jiang paused and turned around.

He immediately scanned Wu Xinshi's surroundings.

— saw nothing.

Therefore, the dead ghost must have been hiding in a corner somewhere, and came to talk to Wu Xinshi through the air.

Si Jiang frowned.

Si Jiang: "Shut up."

Wu Xinshi didn't seem to hear it.

Wu Xinshi: "A few days ago I called the police and let the police arrest her. When I was in the police station, I couldn't help asking her if she had ever liked me, but she said...she said I was stupid and stupid. Ugly, who would like me...I..."

The ghost voice echoed in Wu Xinshi's ear: "That woman also said the same to me... We are really in the same boat..."

As the male ghost spoke, the tone of the ending voice subconsciously rose.

That is definitely not a sad tone, but a happy tone.

The ghost voice finished, and then continued to seduce: "We are so pitiful... So, what's wrong with me helping those stupid men who have been deceived by women to get rid of it earlier? Women in the world are all liars... Their purpose , there is always only money...they worship money and are realistic..."

Wu Xinshi's eyes were slack, and he unconsciously agreed: "That's right... all women are liars..."

Si Jiang repeated again: "Shut up."

Wu Xinshi repeated mutteringly: "They are all liars..."

Si Jiang frowned, he didn't want to talk nonsense with Wu Xinshi anymore, he was going to go up and cover Wu Xinshi's mouth.

But just when he was about to move, the male ghost stepped onto Wu Xinshi's body first.

I saw 'Wu Xinshi' standing where he was, tilting his head, and smiling at Si Jiang.

After laughing, he said: "At first I forgot...you reminded me that I can still go up...Thank you for reminding me."

After finishing speaking, he immediately prepared to turn around and leave here.

But as soon as he turned around, the smile of 'Wu Xinshi' disappeared.

...there is a talisman on the door.

Although he is using Wu Xinshi's shell now, he is still a ghost no matter what, and he cannot touch the talisman.

As long as you touch it, the ghost energy will be greatly reduced.

If it is light, it will not be able to gather together, and if it is heavy, it will be wiped out.

Looking at the bright yellow talisman paper pasted on the door, 'Wu Xinshi' turned his head sullenly.

I only heard 'Wu Xinshi' say with a sullen face: "At first I didn't want to confront you...but since you won't give me a way out, then don't blame me!"

After all, 'Wu Xinshi' picked up the porcelain cup beside him without even thinking about it, and smashed it into pieces.

'Wu Xinshi' picked up the pieces of the porcelain cup and grinned grinningly: "I'll eat you first, then occupy your current body, and then trick him into revealing the talisman to open the door... Ah, I'm so smart..."

Si Jiang stood where he was, his expression unmoved.

A majestic and majestic ghostly aura emanated from his whole body.

'Wu Xinshi' licked the corner of his mouth, and suddenly rushed towards him.

Si Jiang pulled the corner of his mouth and spit out four words.

——Being overestimated.

And just when Si Jiang was about to meet him, he suddenly heard Lu Zhaolu's voice in his ear.

Lu Zhaolu's voice was gloomy, full of sadness.

He has only four words.

"……I like you."

……what?

Si Jiang was taken aback for a moment, shaking his head slightly.

And just as he was in a daze, the porcelain piece in Wu Xinshi's hand cut directly towards his neck.

Si Jiang's reaction was extremely quick, and the moment he made a move, he came back to his senses.

Si Jiang turned his face slightly and dodged in time.But 'Wu Xinshi' stretched out his hand while he was dodging, and pushed him out of the window.

Ghosts will not be thrown to death.

Although this is true, no matter which ghost it is, it doesn't like to fall from a high-rise after possessing a human body and 'die' again.

Of course, some ghosts may be exceptions.

But at least Si Jiang definitely didn't like it.

Therefore, the moment he was pushed out of the window, Si Jiang immediately showed his original shape without hesitation.

And the moment he showed his original shape, 'Wu Xinshi' grabbed his hand without thinking.

Oh no, Jin Zhiguo's hand.

The reason for grabbing Jin Zhiguo is also very simple, because he will use it later.

At the same time, Lu Zhaolu who was standing at the bottom of the building seemed to feel something, and slowly looked up.

With just one glance, Lu Zhaolu froze in place for an instant.

...Si Jiang's original body.

It seemed like he hadn't been seen in... hundreds of years.

the other side.

Being forced to show his true colors, Si Jiang was very unhappy.

The last time he showed his true form, it took him more than five days to recuperate weakly in the hospital. This time, if he showed his original form, it took at least two days if he didn't expect it.

After Si Jiang showed his original form, 'Wu Xinshi' who originally thought Si Jiang was just an ordinary ghost was stunned for a moment.

He said blankly: "You...you are..."

Si Jiang twitched the corner of his mouth: "I wanted you to die quickly, but forget it."

If Si Jiang is still attached to Jin Zhiguo's body now, then only after he leaves Wu Xinshi's body can he do anything to him.

But if it is the original form, it will be completely different.

The domineering and cold ghostly aura directly dragged the male ghost out of Wu Xinshi's body, and then tore it to pieces.

The male ghost let out a scream, but within two seconds, he lost his breath.

The male ghost fell silent, but Si Jiang was still in a bad mood.

'I like you? '

Or did you say it in the voice of Lu Zhaolu?

——It’s too disgusting.
