I was also surprised, so I asked one more question: "Why didn't you ask me what I did for a living?
You gave me the key so easily."
He grinned, revealing his pale white teeth: "Looking at your murderous aura, you must have a lot of lives in your hands."
In his eyes, I'm either a robber or a killer.
But that's true.
Although I hide the body odor and cultivation level, I can't hide the irritability in my body no matter how hard I try. .
But I also heard it from the old man's words.
He may have come into contact with some unworthy people before.
I picked up the key and smiled at him: "Expert."
The old man's smile became brighter: "I don't dare to take it seriously.
You can see the old building one kilometer east.
The place is a little shabby, but the furniture is 90% new.
I won't take your cigarette money for now.
I'll pay the rent tomorrow.
Give it to me when you can.”
Without saying anything, I turned around and left the convenience store.
When I stepped out of the threshold, the expression on the old man's face suddenly became very ferocious, and his ferocious look was like a hungry ghost in the realm of hungry ghosts.
What's going on, does this old man want to eat my flesh and drink my blood?
All I wanted to do was laugh, but I didn't want to say anything at the moment, so I closed the store door behind my back.
When I came out of the convenience store, I could vaguely feel that the temperature outside was a little higher than inside the house, and the cold inside the house was a very weird chill.
Although I don’t know what’s in the store yet, I can guess that there must be something unusual about this store.
It's now past two o'clock in the afternoon, and except for the occasional two cars passing by quickly, not even a single pedestrian can be seen on the road.
It's really ridiculous.
Carrying my backpack, I came to the old building and looked towards the outer wall of the building.
Sure enough, I saw a long crack, which spread almost from the top to the bottom of the building.
The cracks exposed strips of broken steel bars.
But within the crack, there is another cement wall, and the ghost's eye can clearly see the rough wall.
When I entered the building, I found that the interior space of the building was much smaller than it looked from the outside.
I immediately confirmed that there were mezzanines in the walls.
It looks like an ordinary building, but actually there is something special inside.
Just as Lu Shun described, there was a rusty iron gate next to the stairs.
Behind the gate was a ramp extending downwards, and the bottom of the ramp was connected to the basement of the old building.
I don't plan to go to the basement just yet, because I really want to see what will happen tonight.
Like the exterior walls of the old building, the stairs also looked very dilapidated.
Most of the stairs had exposed steel bars and cement boards, and half of the stairs leading to the second floor collapsed.
However, if you look closely at the half-complete stairs, it is obvious that the roots of the steps have been fixed with cement and steel bars.
After the fixation, a thick cement board was added to the outer layer, making these half-sections of stairs much thicker than normal stairs.
Lu Shun was right about one thing, there were indeed many people living in this place.
If there are no people walking on the stairs frequently, there is no need to reinforce these broken stairs at all.
Not only do people live here, but they also plan to stay there for a long time.
As soon as I left the broken staircase, I saw a fat man with a greasy body rushing towards me along the corridor.
He should have heard my footsteps but not seen me, but I could see him through the ghost eyes.
Don't look at how fat this guy is, he is quite fast.
In the blink of an eye, he is almost at the top of the stairs.
I also take two hard steps and jump directly to the top of the stairs.

Then I exert force on my heels and steadily Keep your body steady.
The next moment, the fat man bumped into me.
He is fast, heavy, and has very strong momentum, but as for me, in Lao Zuo's words, my body is like a layer of meat on the outside of the steel pillar, and it is extremely hard meat.
There was a muffled sound, and after the fat man hit me, he howled miserably and backed away diagonally.
I patted my jacket and walked slowly to him.
Now the fat man's whole face is ferocious.
He doesn't seem to be trying to scare me.
The reason for this expression is purely because of pain.
I looked at him, and he looked at me sideways.
His expression was not only ferocious, but also gave people a sinister feeling.
It wasn't until I saw the fat man's face with my own eyes that I understood why Lu Shun was afraid of him.
There seemed to be nothing wrong with this man's appearance, but if you look closely at his eyes, the diameter of his black eyeballs was half that of a normal person.
At first glance, he looked like he was afraid of him.
It was as if a very thin hammer had been used to make a black hole in the white of the eye.
Judging from this special face alone, the fat man should have been infected with corpse aura, but maybe it was because of his special physique, or maybe he used special means to suppress the corpse aura, so that he did not undergo obvious corpse transformation.
Generally speaking, a person who is immersed in corpse energy will transform into an evil corpse before his pupils change.
Didn’t the old man at the convenience store regard me as a villain?
Then a villain should look like a villain.
I reached out and grabbed the fat man’s hair, and roared into his ear: “Don’t block the way.”
As I said that, I shook my hand vigorously again, bringing his head into close contact with the wall.
The fat man was completely stunned.
He leaned against the wall like an abandoned little wife, protecting his head with one hand and looking sideways at me.
Due to the narrow pupil diameter, this guy's expression still gives people a sinister feeling, but generally speaking, his current expression is mainly "confused".
He probably couldn't figure out why he was ejected after hitting me.
After all, he was much heavier than me.
What he didn't expect was that the person who was supposed to be scared to death actually pressed his head against the wall and yelled at him viciously.
In fact, I think he should be lucky.
If the person he hit just now was not me, but the second master, I estimate that he will most likely be dependent on a wheelchair for the rest of his life.
Room 205 should be the room where Lu Shun lived.
Just like what he described, the curtains in the room were open a small slit, the living room was large, and there were all kinds of furniture such as sofas, coffee tables, and electrical cabinets.
There was also a set-top box placed under the wall-mounted TV.
The lamp in the master bedroom had no shade, just a bare bulb.
Lu Shun mentioned in his notes that when he was near the bedroom door, he heard the sound of a lampshade being broken from the bedroom.
If his wife is indeed a ghost, and ghosts cannot have a physical impact on real entities, then who broke the lampshade?
With this question in mind, I went to the master bedroom to check and found that there was a palm-sized vent on the west wall of the bedroom.
On the inside of the vent, a large piece of rust had been rubbed off by something unknown, leaving only There is a lot of scattered rust residue.
I guess that on the night Lu Shun checked in, something might have come out of the vent, and it was that thing that broke the lampshade.
Then I wandered around the house again, and there was a very faint smell of corpses in the second bedroom.
It was not a smell unique to evil corpses, but a simple rotten smell.
I guess there had been corpses in this place, and someone was trying to cover it up.
A large amount of orange-flavored freshener was sprayed in the air.
The two smells were mixed together, which can only be said to be very disgusting.
The bathroom is quite dark, as if a ghost had stayed here not long ago.
Finally, I found Jingyi’s ashes urn in the kitchen sink.
This hanging kitchen is used to store spices, and there is even a special note posted on the stove that says "The spices are in the hanging cabinet."

I looked at it and saw that the ink on the note was still new.
Although I am not an experienced detective, I am not stupid either.
I can tell at a glance that the person who left the note wanted future tenants to discover the urn in the wall cabinet.
This is simply a man-made haunted house.
Different from the haunted houses in amusement parks, this haunted house does not rely on those weird and ridiculous props to scare people.
Its terror comes from various ghost effects and psychological suggestions.
Just imagine, if a subsequent tenant first went to the second bedroom and bathroom, and his yang energy was disturbed by the resentment of the dead and the yin energy of ghosts, and then discovered the urn in the wall cabinet, he would definitely feel inexplicably scared.
The other party must have an ulterior motive for putting so much effort into scaring people.
But to me, the arrangements here are downright ridiculous.
It felt like someone told you to take you to see a particularly scary British movie, but when you arrived at the cinema, Peppa Pig was playing on the screen.
I sighed helplessly and turned the urn in my hand so that Jingyi's photo of her body was facing me.
When I saw Lu Shun's notes before, I always thought that Jingyi was an extremely thin person with a very snarky appearance.
But looking at the photo on the urn, she was actually a very gentle woman on the surface.
No, not just gentle.
Wan, there is still a little bit of nobility in her body, and she looks like a lady.
Whether it is her gentleness or nobility, they are all revealed naturally from her eyebrows.
It is obvious that she was not deliberately pretentious when taking this photo.
I suddenly realized that Lu Shun had probably lied about Jingyi.
I put the urn back on the wall cabinet, then went to the sofa and watched TV peacefully like Lu Shun did a few days ago.
Just as the screen turned on, there was a soft sound from the door.
I deliberately pretended not to notice it and just stared at the TV in trance.
Not long after, a very light smoke drifted in from the crack at the bottom of the door.
There is also a special aroma similar to rosemary floating in the air, with a little bit of mushroom in it.
This is the unique smell of incense.
No wonder Lu Shun fell asleep while watching TV.
Someone probably blew the same thing into the house while he was sitting here watching TV.
At this time, the person standing outside the door blowing smoke into the house was not a fat man.
He was a young man about twenty years old.
He wore glasses and looked relatively gentle.
Even though he was squatting down and blowing smoke into my house.
When smoking, his movements are also very elegant.
I cursed in my heart: "Another polite scumbag
