Chapter 189 Spend the night
Chapter 189 Spend the night
The current situation is like the eve of a storm; the calmer it is, the more terrifying it becomes.
Si He looked at the jewelry shop in front of her and frowned slightly.
When she and Ning Ji discovered something was wrong, they tried to change direction, but as if they were pulled by an invisible force, they finally returned to the starting point, back to where they started.
The person in front only took a quick look at the two people following him and then looked away, as long as they were not dangerous.
After discussing for a while, they decided to try again. This time, they divided the work, some people were responsible for defense, and some people concentrated on finding the flaws in the ghost wall, and then they walked towards the road ahead again.
A group of people walked farther and farther away, and their figures soon disappeared in the thick fog.
This time, Ning Ji did not move forward, but took Si He's hand and went back to the shop.
"Husband, aren't we leaving?"
"Well, it's not easy to leave for now. Let's see the situation first."
Entering the shop, Ning Ji relit the candle to illuminate the room, then took out some talisman paper and pasted it on the doors and windows. He then said to her, "He He, I'm going to go out and check the situation nearby. You stay in the room and wait for me. Don't come out."
She nodded obediently, "Okay."
The situation here is special, and she naturally knows that it is much more convenient to act alone than with two people, so she won't cause him any trouble.
There is also a reception room on the side of the shop, which was obviously used to entertain distinguished guests in the past. It is very clean inside and she can rest here.
There was no door in the reception room, only a curtain blocking it. Ning Ji took out another piece of talisman paper and stuck it behind the curtain. Then he arranged the reception room and took precautions. Only then did he feel relieved.
Behind the shop, there is a small courtyard with only two utility rooms and a toilet, and no dangerous things.
Ning Ji checked the entire shop and also went to the second floor. There was indeed a female corpse there. Her death was horrific. It was the corpse of the female ghost from before. However, now she was no longer a threat and was just a shell.
After confirming that the shop was safe, Ning Ji took Si He back to the reception room on the first floor. Before leaving, he reminded her, "If there is any danger, blow the whistle and I will be back soon."
"it is good."
He touched her head, then turned and walked out of the shop, closing the door behind him.
She sat by the window in the living room, playing with the small whistle in her hand, looking out the window, only to see Ning Ji jump and disappear in the gray fog.
At this moment, the wind outside seemed to be a little stronger, and the fog seemed to be blown away a little, making the vision clearer.
The raindrops on the eaves stopped, and there was no sound on the street except the slight sound of the wind. It was very quiet.
However, this silence did not last long. Soon, a chaotic sound of footsteps and voices was heard outside. Those people came back and still could not get out of this strange area.
"Damn it, we're back here again!! This ghost wall is really weird!"
"It's almost evening now. We can only try once more. If we still can't get out, we'll find a place to stay. I'm afraid the streets will become even more dangerous when night falls."
"Ah~ This is the only way. I didn't expect this ghost wall to be more difficult than I imagined. If we study it for a few more hours, there is a good chance we can find a loophole, but time is really running out now."
"No wonder Master Xu and the others were so badly injured yesterday. Breaking through this ghost wall would cost a lot."
After a discussion, the leading few elderly Taoists took up their spiritual weapons again and walked forward, carefully exploring the surrounding situation.
The others stood on both sides, vigilant and on guard. Among them, Zhao Laoxie suddenly glanced sideways and looked into the window not far away, his eyes meeting Si He's.
The window was only slightly open, so he couldn't see everything clearly, but he still saved her immediately. He didn't expect them to go back to the shop, and was a little surprised.
However, Zhao Laoxie soon understood. After all, this ghost wall was too tricky. None of them had any way to get out for the time being, let alone these two people.
When the others saw Zhao Laoxie stop, they couldn't help but look sideways. Following his gaze, they also saw a beautiful figure in the window and were a little surprised.
"These two are back in the shop again?! Are they planning to stay overnight?"
"Giving up so quickly, I don't know what the hell you're thinking, but choosing to stay is not a wise decision."
"Let's go quickly. It's getting late. Leave them alone."
The group quickly quickened their pace to catch up with the people in front. Zhao Laoxie also withdrew his gaze and continued walking.
The group of young men and women following behind couldn't help but look at the window, but at this time, the window was closed and they couldn't see what was going on inside.
Although they were all a little curious, the most important thing now was to get out.
The group of people walked further and further away, and their figures disappeared again in the gray fog.
However, after about half an hour, they returned to the street again, and this time, their faces looked extremely ugly.
Moreover, many people in their group were injured, with injuries of varying severity.
Because just now when they were on the road, they were attacked by some evil spirits again. This time the evil spirits were very powerful. In the process of dealing with them, many people were injured and even one person died. In the end, they failed to catch 'it' and let 'it' run away. They suffered a great loss!
The sky had darkened considerably now, and judging from the time, it was almost nightfall.
Helplessly, they could only return to the shop where they had rested before, rest here for the night, and continue looking for a way out tomorrow.
When they entered the shop, the group of young men and women who had been there before also returned to the jewelry shop opposite. After all, that was where they had stayed before.
boom!
The door was pushed open with force and a group of people rushed in.
Si He frowned slightly in the reception room. Although she had expected them to come back here, she was still a little annoyed by the commotion. However, she didn't say anything. After all, this wasn't her territory. As long as they didn't come to this reception room, it would be fine.
However, just as she thought this, the curtain of the reception room was lifted, and the one leading the way was a young master's guard.
After they drew aside the curtain, they looked around the reception room. The young man standing at the back was a little surprised to see that she was the only one here.
"only you?"
The young man had just opened his mouth when another group of people came in from outside.
It was Zhao Laoxie who came here with his men, and he was followed by a number of curious Taoists. They came here to see the situation here.
