As time passes gradually.
Guo You and two other couriers temporarily found out the situation on the first floor of the collection hall during the afternoon. They were lucky and did not encounter ghosts. Instead, they found something suspected to be a supernatural item.
It was an old hand stove, but I don't know its specific use. I only know that it was obtained by a messenger.
The messenger who got the old hand stove didn't dare to study it blindly, for fear that he would be killed by supernatural objects soon, so he just collected it and decided to study it slowly in the future.
This kind of harvest made others envious, and they all felt that this adventure was worth it.
"Li Yi, the situation on the first floor is like this for the time being. We really haven't found anything else." At this moment, everyone gathered together again, eating, drinking, and chatting.
Those who didn't know better thought they were here for a party.
But what they discussed was how to find the ghost in the collection hall and how to complete the task of delivering the message.
"Looking at it like this, I have to go to the underground floor anyway." Liu Qingqing said.
Li Yi said calmly at this moment: "When I fell into trance before, I sensed the situation on the underground floor. There was always movement coming out. And sometimes I sensed more than one step, one heavy and one light. This is a bit abnormal.
"
"Two steps?" Everyone else looked at Li Yi in surprise at this moment.
They did not doubt Li Yi's super sensory ability. After all, he was a superman, so it was reasonable to have some superpowers.
What surprised them was that there were two ghosts in the collection.
"Is there another supernatural person living downstairs?" Guo You asked: "Just like the previous owner Fang Hua, he seems to be alive, but in fact he is dead. After all, ordinary people cannot always be with ghosts.
We live together, and this letter delivery task is for us to deliver letters to the ghosts in the collection. If there are two ghosts, this does not meet the requirements for letter delivery."
"Maybe just give the letter to one of the ghosts." Another messenger on the second floor said.
"It shouldn't be possible." Guo You shook his head and said, "If that were the case, the mission requirement would directly say that it should be given to one of the ghosts in the collection hall."
"You don't need to think so much now. We will decide based on the situation after taking action tomorrow morning." Li Yi said: "I have done all the things to be done today. You can rest. I will pay attention to the surrounding situation at night. If there is any movement, I will
I will notify you, and I believe you will not sleep too hard in this situation."
"Then why do you have the nerve to let you keep vigil? Let's just take turns." Guo You said.
Li Yi glanced at him and said: "Your perception is too poor. Maybe you don't even know when a ghost comes to you. I'm different. With my senses, as long as the ghost makes the slightest movement, I will see you two floors away."
Everybody knows.”
At night, in a quiet environment, an evolved person like him has sharper senses, and catching the movements of ghosts is as easy as eating and drinking.
If it weren't for the poor start after entering this world and the death of so many teammates, or if they had adapted to the supernatural power of this world, they would definitely be the group of people with the highest survivability.
"I am a ghost controller and I don't need to sleep. I will keep vigil with you." Liu Qingqing said at this time.
"Okay." Li Yi nodded in agreement without refusing.
The others had nothing to say when they saw this. They did not have extraordinary abilities like Li Yi, and they were not ghost controllers. They could only do what they could.
As time goes by.
It's night soon.
This night is destined to be long.
Because the collection hall has been closed for a long time, there is no water or electricity. It is pitch dark at night. Only a little light shines in from the window. But for ordinary people, this light is almost useless and can only be used reluctantly.
Confirming the approximate location is not enough for them to see clearly their surroundings.
Although everyone has a mobile phone, under this situation, they don't dare to turn on the light and shine around with their mobile phone.
In this environment, even Liu Qingqing did not dare to act arbitrarily. Although she was a ghost controller, her eyes could not see at night, so she could only reduce the frequency of her activities.
Although everyone is a messenger on the second floor and has a certain amount of experience, it is still very difficult to sleep in this environment.
You must know that ghosts are wandering somewhere downstairs, and they may come to you at any time and target them.
But their worries seem to be unnecessary.
Li Yi has been sitting with his eyes closed. His perception spreads and he can grasp any movement around him. Although his perception cannot spread to the entire collection hall, he can still determine the situation around him. And throughout the first half of the night, on the second floor,
It has always been within a safe range and no abnormalities have occurred.
Until late at night after twelve o'clock.
A rush of footsteps suddenly appeared on the first floor. The footsteps were very light and the movement was not loud, as if someone was running past quickly with bare feet.
"Um?"
Li Yi slowly opened his eyes at this moment, a pair of eyes shining brightly in the darkness.
He looked at Liu Qingqing next to him.
Liu Qingqing was sitting on the wall to rest. She was not sleeping either, but she was not aware of the sudden footsteps on the first floor and did not hear them at all.
It seems that ordinary people's senses are really not good enough.
Li Yi originally thought that the footsteps downstairs would disappear soon, but he never thought that the footsteps would be like a headless fly, running around on the first floor. Although the running speed was not fast, the location of the movement was quite different.
It is constantly changing, sometimes in the distance, sometimes reappearing nearby downstairs in a flash, and sometimes it seems to be running out of the collection hall.
"Are they constantly changing directions?"
He thought about the ability of the ghost controller named Wang Qiao, who could suddenly appear in a certain place or disappear suddenly.
It seems that the ghost downstairs also has this ability.
As a result, it would be a bit troublesome to successfully deliver the letter.
But just when Li Yi was thinking this, the next moment, his whole body suddenly became tense, and a chill suddenly surged out from the bottom of his heart.
Tread, tap!
Rapid footsteps sounded, and the ghost on the first floor quickly came to the second floor along the stairs for some unknown reason. This change in behavior was sudden and unpredictable, and the ghost moved very fast. At this moment, it was already
Almost finished walking up the stairs.
"Liu Qingqing, a ghost is coming." Li Yi said in a suppressed voice.
At this moment, Liu Qingqing, who had closed her eyes to rest, suddenly opened her eyes. She immediately found Li Yi in the dark environment, because Li Yi's eyes were shining brightly, as if the Milky Way was flowing.
Miraculous, with such distinctive features, she can recognize him at a glance no matter where he is.
"I couldn't see anything, it was pitch black, but I seemed to hear some movement." Liu Qingqing whispered.
"I can see. My eyes can see at night. You just need to be alert. If the ghost is going upstairs, if you need to take action, I will create an opportunity for you." Li Yi said.
"Okay." Liu Qingqing nodded.
Li Yi just stood up slowly at this moment. He remained motionless and quiet. He held the cracked short stick tightly in his hand and stared at the direction of the stairs.
He poured a puddle of corpse water at the top of the stairs.
etc.
Why does corpse water turn red?
Li Yi could see clearly at this moment that as the ghost approached, the corpse water that fell on the ground was rapidly turning red at a speed visible to the naked eye. In less than a while, it was no longer a pool of corpse water, but
It's a pool of blood.
"Is there a ghost nearby, so the corpse water containing supernatural power has some kind of reaction?" He had a rough guess in his mind.
If this is the case, it is a good thing. At least Li Yi understands another function of corpse water.
However, corpse water can't stop evil spirits, and Li Yi doesn't expect that a puddle of water can keep ghosts out of the stairs.
Coming!
Suddenly.
When the footsteps reached somewhere, Li Yi instinctively judged the opponent's position.
That's the last step.
In the darkness, a strange head poked out from the stairs. It was not the head of a living person, but the head of a child. But the child was very strange, with pale makeup, wearing a gray gown and a round hat.
, like a young master from a landlord's family, but this young master is not a human, but a ghost, because its eyes are hollow, without eyeballs, only two dark eye sockets.
At this moment, my head is constantly turning, not looking at people, but listening to the movements around me.
And as soon as this kid appeared, the surrounding temperature seemed to drop several degrees, and a cold breath began to surround everyone.
Feeling this chill, Guo You and the other two messengers who were sleeping couldn't help but wake up at this moment. At first, they thought they were just sleeping on the ground and it was a little cold, but then they saw them standing in front of them, their eyes shining,
Li Yishi was motionless, but his heart tightened.
Something happened?
They didn't say anything for the first time, but looked at Liu Qingqing.
With some light coming from the glass window and their eyes having adapted to the dim environment, they could barely see some things.
At this moment, Liu Qingqing stretched out her finger to signal a few people to stop talking, and then pointed to a certain direction in the darkness.
At this moment, several people broke out in a cold sweat.
There is no doubt about it.
The ghost is coming!
And it's nearby.
This kind of chill is not at all caused by the cold weather at night, but by the appearance of evil spirits, and the surrounding environment is affected by supernatural forces, causing illusions in people's perception.
But where is the ghost?
They looked ahead with a bit of fear.
But in the dark environment, they couldn't see anything and couldn't locate the ghost at all.
At this moment, only Li Yi could clearly see the ghost.
I don't know if it was due to excessive nervousness. As a messenger's breathing gradually became heavier, the ghost standing at the top of the stairs shaking his head seemed to hear some noise. Suddenly he twisted his neck and looked here with a pair of dark eyes.
Came over.
Immediately afterwards, rapid footsteps sounded again.
The ghost actually jumped over the steps, stepped on the stagnant water, and ran towards this side quickly.
The sound of trampling by stagnant water sounded.
At this moment, everyone's nerves became tense.
They know better than anyone else that stagnant water is the last layer of warning on the steps, and crossing that layer of warning means that the ghost has reached the second floor.
"Are you attracted by the sound? You're welcome, I'll go look for it tomorrow." Li Yi held the cracked short stick in his hand. He didn't flinch at this moment but was ready to attack.
After one blow, he might be able to take this opportunity to send the letter out and complete this letter delivery mission.
Chapter completed!
