Can't Save the World by Pretending to be Dead

Screaming heavy metal rock music, colorful spotlights.On the noisy and lively dance floor, men and women in scanty clothes swayed their bodies to the music, dancing disco and having a blast.

The famous Kempinz club in Sioux City, its main source of customers are these young rich second generation Sioux City.

Drinking, dancing, and bringing beautiful internet celebrity girlfriends to parties are the daily routines of these prodigal sons.Unlike many normal nightclubs and bars, the upper floor of the clubhouse is a luxury hotel.No external reservations, only open to members.

In the early hours of the morning and late at night, the number of guests in the dance floor box became less and less, but in the hotel room upstairs, there were voices one after another.

On the soft and luxurious double bed, a thin young man with sunken cheeks let out a low growl and collapsed.He has an ordinary face, every facial feature can't be faulted, but it has no characteristics.The figure is also quite satisfactory, without the beer belly of many middle-aged men, but the rotten flesh is soft and soft, and there is not a single muscle in sight.

However, for such an ordinary person, the female Internet celebrity with an awl-faced smile coquettishly approached him, and said softly, "Young Master Wang..."

Panting, Wang Yuyun glanced at the little internet celebrity beside her, smiled, and kissed her.

It's a pity that the body that has been hollowed out all the year round can't allow Young Master Wang to cheer up again. He felt powerless, fumbled around his new girlfriend, and started to get dressed angrily.

"Master Wang..."

"To shut up!"

The little internet celebrity didn't dare to say a word.

Really boring!

Wang Yuyun glanced at her irritably, put on her clothes, slammed the door and left.

In order to take care of the privacy of the guests, each room on the upper floor of the Kempins Club has its own dedicated and hidden safe passage, and will not meet other guests in the hotel.Wang Yuyun is usually a bit of a prodigal and extravagant, but if the old man can hand over the company to him, he can clearly distinguish the priorities.

An hour ago, when he went upstairs to open a room with his girlfriend in his arms, his assistant sent him a message, telling him that Gao Jiaxun, the boss of Jiaxun Capital, had come to Kempins Club in person and was waiting to see him.

It took Wang Dashao 1 minute to finally recall who this Gao Jiaxun was from his memory.

Jiaxun Capital and Wang have recently cooperated on a piece of land in the outskirts of the city. This person came to Kempins to meet him in person, and it was not easy for him to see him.It's not worth seeing right away, though.

Young Master Wang lazily ordered his assistant to deal with Gao Jiaxun casually, and asked people to wait for him in the conference room, while he went up to have a good time with his girlfriend in his arms.

Putting on his coat, Young Master Wang felt rather displeased.

The new internet celebrity girlfriend looks pretty good, but isn't he a bit faster recently?Could it be that you are really old and you have to start paying attention to your body?

He clicked his tongue depressed and anxious, and the rich second generation with a kidney deficiency look full of hostility, and strode towards the conference room at the end of the corridor.

On both sides of the corridor are marble walls that are as smooth as mirrors. Every time the rich second generation walks fast, his shadow is reflected on the marble walls on both sides, and he follows closely behind.

Walking to a corner, the yellow spotlight above his head suddenly flickered.

"Ok?"

Young Master Wang raised his head and looked at the light bulb above his head.

There was nothing unusual about the small light bulb, and it emitted a dazzling light, as if the flickering just now was just his eyesight.

"What rubbish, where did the monthly membership fee go?" complained, and the rich second generation continued to move forward.Behind him, yellow spotlights quietly shone on the two marble walls.

No one has ever noticed that the marble corridor of the Kempins clubhouse looks like a graveyard.

Up, down, left, and right, the walls on all sides are full of cold stones.

Every wall reflects a Wang Yuyun who is walking forward quickly.

"Hey, what's the call? Didn't I say that it's almost here, let that Gao Jiaxun wait a little longer!"

The impatient voice echoed between the stones, and on the wall above his head, the "Wang Yuyun" who was on the phone suddenly stopped.However, in the middle of the corridor, Wang Yuyun continued to walk forward. As he walked, he scolded: "What the hell, what's wrong with making him wait for an hour, or get out, or let me wait!"

On the ground in the corridor under his feet, that "Wang Yuyun" also slowly stopped, and "he" raised his head, looking at himself who was walking further and further away.

"By the way, that woman is so annoying, the bed sounds terrible, give her 50 yuan, and tell her to get out..."

On the left wall, "Wang Yuyun" was holding a mobile phone, his dark eyes moved slowly, looking at himself.On the wall on the right, "Wang Yuyun" put down the phone, looked at his receding back, grinned his teeth, and showed a cold and gloomy smile...

Suddenly, a chill rushed from the soles of his feet to the top of his head, and Wang Yuyun shivered suddenly. He held the phone with trembling fingers, turned his head crunchily, and looked behind him.

boom! boom! boom!

At the end of the corridor, the yellow overhead lights burst out one by one.

Four black shadows rushed madly from the end of the darkness.

Young Master Wang opened his eyes wide, hoarse, and sat down on the ground.

"what……"

"Ahhh! Help!!!"

The strange laughter and the sound of dripping water drowned out the man's screams.

Young Master Wang's assistant stood at the door of the conference room, looking at the empty marble-paved corridor, muttering softly, "It's strange, didn't Mr. Wang say he'll be there soon..."

***

"I think I'm strong."

"..." Lian Xi silently put down his phone, pointed at Su Jiao who was struggling with the thesis, "Do you think he is strong?"

Ji Chen slightly raised his eyebrows: "Playing games?"

Lian Xi: "Spells, ghost hunting or something."

Ji Chen let out a soft snort, everything was self-evident.

But then Lian Xi imitated his appearance and let out a soft snort, and even the disdainful placement of the ending sound was perfectly imitated.

Ji Chen: "..."

Emperor Fengdu frowned slightly, and said in a calm tone, "You learn from me?"

Lian Xi pointed to Su Jiao calmly: "He, spells." Then he pointed to Chen Chen, "You, play games."

The implication is, are you strong or not? Don't you have a B number in your heart?

Su Jiao, who was also shot while lying on the side, became angry with embarrassment: "Is he still human! Why do you take me as an example for him playing games, just spray him! Besides, is my spell so good? How can I say it is also Qufu Xuanxiu, the top two in the county, please!"

Ji Chen and Lian Xi turned their heads one after another, saying in unison——

"Ah."

Su Jiao: "..."

Not very lethal, but extremely insulting.

This day is over!

It has been a whole week since the resurrection of Emperor Wen Song was resolved.

Lian Xi contacted Xiao Liu a week ago, intending to buy the rented house.Xiao Liu was overjoyed and contacted the landlord the next day.It's a pity that the landlord didn't return to Sioux City immediately this time.It's not that he doesn't want to sell this haunted house, but that he happened to be sent by the company on a business trip abroad, and he won't be able to return until next month.

Even Xi is not in a hurry.

This house is a haunted house. The landlord has listed it for more than ten years and no one has bought it. Now it's not too late.

And it would be even better to sign the contract next month. At that time, he would be able to get the No. 1 salary in the new month's performance list, plus his deposit, and directly buy the house in full.

After playing the game for a whole morning, he managed to bring Mr. Xi to the king position. Lian Xi completely lost his strength and felt more tired than running 800 meters in college.

"Hey, my lord, what do you want for lunch?"

On the sofa, Mr. Xi liked to mention the title of king, and was fondly touching his phone.After hearing this, Lian Xi raised his head and looked at the watchman: "You can just eat takeaway."

The watchman waved his hand: "Wherever you want, you can just say what you want to eat."

Lian Xi: "...you can eat whatever you want?"

Watchman: "That is, the special food of the entire Suzhou Province. You can eat whatever you want."

Lian Xi didn't know why, so he asked tentatively, "Wuxi Xiaolongbao?"

The next moment, I saw the watchman kicking his colleague's leg, domineering: "Ghost Jiang, my lord wants to eat Wuxi's steamed buns, do you hear me? Go buy it now, don't ask for unauthentic ones!"

Jiang Gui stared straight at him: "Luo Zhong, if you want to die..."

"Huh?" But the watchman snorted and took out a black and white notebook from his pocket.

Lian Xi glanced a little more in surprise, noticing his gaze, Judge Cui, who was concentrating on improving the Guicha performance rankings, immediately explained: "My lord, this was modified by my subordinates when they were improving the Guichai performance rankings." The new Jiangnan Dao ghost certificate. His subordinates combined the ghost certificates of Jiang Gui and Luo Zhong into one book. From then on, this ghost certificate can control all the ghost certificates in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai. every move."

The watchman: "Ghost Jiang, I want you to buy something for my lord to eat, how dare you push me back?" Then, the watchman ran to the minister's side like a dog, closed his eyes and complained: "My lord, I report, he wants to rebel!"

Mr. Xi was looking at his king's rank mark happily, and didn't pay attention to Lian Xi's movement at all.Hearing this, he raised his head, glanced lightly at the aggrieved Jiang Gui, and raised his eyebrows: "Huh?"

Jiang Gui: "..."

He buys it, can't he buy it!

I thought I was a secret voter from Mingzhu, and I finally hoped that Judge Cui would uphold justice, but I never thought that this is when I joined the national army in 49. Jiang Gui's bet made him lose all his money!

Resentfully going out to buy steamed buns, Jiang Gui cast a spell and disappeared at the end of the community with a few strokes.

Su Jiao asked curiously: "Aren't you afraid that he will run away?"

No doubt everyone/ghosts in the house knew that Ghost Jiang was never convinced.If God gave him another chance, he would definitely slide and kneel on the spot 360°, hug Mr. Xi's thigh, and lick off a layer of skin.But the problem is, there is never an if.He has already chosen another path, and now even if he comes back to lick his bald skin, he cannot compare to the far-sighted watchman and the powerful Judge Cui.

So, since he can't fight, can't he run?

Lian Xi's voice was calm: "Isn't there a new Jiangnan Dao ghost certificate?"

The new ghost messenger card can control the whereabouts of all ghost messengers in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai.

Su Jiao: "If I understand correctly, once that ghost Jiang escapes from Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai, the ghost certificate will not be able to locate him?"

Lian Xi: "It would be even better if he ran away."

Su Jiao: "?" What the hell?

The watchman smiled obscenely: "Yes, your lord is right. If Ghost Jiang really ran away without knowing what to do...then we have a reason to beat him up and make him behave."

Judge Cui raised his head, with no expression on his bookish face: "When did you beat Ghost Jiang?"

The watchman hurriedly complimented: "Then Judge Cui has to do it yourself!"

As soon as the words fell, a black shadow flashed across the window.

The cold-faced Jiang Gui threw a bag of steamed buns on the table. He gave the watchman a vicious look, crossed his arms, and walked to the corner silently without making a sound.

After coming to Yangjian for a week, Judge Cui also devoted himself to revamping the performance ranking list of ghosts.Now, it finally has some effect.

After everyone finished eating the steamed buns Jiang Gui ran all the way to Wuxi to buy, Judge Cui held the new ghost performance ranking list in both hands, handed it to Chen Chen, and said with a smile: "My lord, please check it, can you check it?" Satisfied. If there are no problems, the subordinates will write down a few spells on this leaderboard, and it will be considered complete."

Mr. Xi: "...um."

How could Ji Chen know about spells and incantations? To this day, although he has figured out his true identity, Ji Chen has not fully recovered his memory.

After casually fooling Judge Cui, Judge Cui took back the leaderboard. With a low drink, he lightly drew and drew on the transparent leaderboard as thin as a cicada's wing.

A series of black spells quickly flew up the leaderboard from between his fingers, and finally disappeared.

"Okay, the leaderboard can officially start working tomorrow!"

After solving a difficult problem, Judge Cui could finally breathe a sigh of relief after working so hard for so long.While relaxing in his heart, he frowned and stroked his chin: "Speaking of which, did I forget something?"

...It seems that I forgot something?

After thinking for a long time and still not being able to understand it, Judge Cui simply waved his hand: "Forget it, it's definitely not a big deal if you can't remember it." After saying that, he ran to the minister beside him: "My lord, is there anything else I need to order?" Subordinates?"

At the same time, Zhuanlun Wang and Yunnan Daoheiwuchang, who are struggling to travel between the yin and yang realms——

Wheel-running king: "Damn it, if this king's wheel-running mirror is still there, how can it be so difficult to cross the two realms?"

Yunnan Daohei Wuchang said happily: "Your Highness, this subordinate has already felt Judge Cui's aura. He is not far away, and we are coming to Yangjian!"

Naturally, Lian Xi and the others did not know about this long journey from the underworld to the underworld.

After eating the steamed buns, everyone had another afternoon tea.This time, Jiang Gui got a taste of the scenery of West Lake.

In the evening, Lian Xi was about to broadcast live when suddenly, Xiao Liu called.

After answering the phone, Lian Xi's voice was calm: "Well, what's the matter, did the landlord return home early?"

On the other end of the phone, Xiao Liu paused, as if he didn't know what to say, and finally said: "No, Mr. Lian, there is... something else. That is, I don't know the landlord opposite you, whose surname is Gao. Do you know him or not..." Before Lian Xi could answer, Xiao Liu smiled and said, "I'm sorry to say that, you have never had any contact with Mr. Gao, so how could you know him. It's Mr. Gao, the landlord opposite you. I don't know what happened, but he suddenly found me and wanted your contact information."

Lian Xi's eyes froze, he held his mobile phone, and asked calmly: "Suddenly want my contact information? I don't seem to know him."

Lian Xi and Gao Jiaxun met once half a year ago.

But they did not meet in the community at that time, and the two sides did not leave any contact information.Even after Lian Xi helped Gao Jiaxun resolve the long-standing obsession in the house, the two parties did not meet in reality.For Gao Jiaxun, he just had a very sad and moving dream, he didn't know that Lian Xi dissipated his obsession for him.

So it stands to reason that Gao Jiaxun shouldn't know that he lives opposite his house, let alone come to him out of nowhere.

Xiao Liu said in a strange tone: "Well, Mr. Gao actually gave me some photos, I think they should be the photos taken by the surveillance video. He hired me with a lot of money and asked me to help him find two people for him in this community .And these two people... are Mr. Lian and your friend Mr. Jichen."

Lian Xi was slightly stunned, and he subconsciously turned his head to look at President Xi who was beside him.

"Did Mr. Gao say what happened?"

Xiao Liu: "I didn't say that. If you don't think it's suitable, I'll turn down Mr. Gao's job. But Mr. Lian, Mr. Gao is a very good person. He often does charity and public welfare. I believe he is not Bad guy, I can guarantee this with my personality. And I think he seems to be in a hurry..."

After a moment of silence, Lian Xi said, "Okay, give me his phone number."
