The moment they heard the knock on the door, several people present and Ding Zhenzong in the video trembled at the same time.
"Ding Zhenzong?" It was Li Bai's voice, "Ding Zhenzong, are you there? Are you okay?"
Across the screen, everyone can clearly feel Ding Zhenzong's fear at this moment. His first reaction was not to watch the door, but to look down at his phone to see the time on it!
But judging from Ding Zhenzong's reaction, it's not yet time to change shifts, so it's very simple. The Li Bai outside is a ghost in disguise and is fake.
The knocking on the door was getting louder and louder, and everyone's hearts were always on their minds. Fatty had already mentally prepared himself to deal with the next horrific scene of the ghost breaking in and killing Ding Zhenzong.
But the final outcome was unexpected. The disguised ghost retreated first, retreating without warning. The shadow it left in front of the door became thinner and thinner little by little until it disappeared.
The fat man looked confused until Jiang Cheng pointed at the time on the video and said, "It's time. I think the next shift is coming, so this ghost has no choice but to leave."
Li Bai and Yao, Shun, and Yu both remained silent, seemingly acquiescing.
Sure enough, after the ghost retreated, Ding Zhenzong's tense body immediately relaxed, and then he slowly stood up. In less than 2 minutes, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door.
The footsteps were relatively light, and one could guess that the person who came was doing this intentionally and was a cautious person. At the same time, the person just stood in front of the door, but did not knock on the door or make any sound.
Ding Zhenzong quietly walked behind the door. He didn't dare to get too close. He just stretched out his hand and knocked lightly on the door. Immediately, the person outside the door responded to him immediately.
Ding Zhenzong picked up the phone excitedly. It seemed that he had sent a message. No need to ask, it was sent to the next person, Li Bai. He was a cautious person. He was checking the identity of the person outside.
Soon, after receiving the reply he wanted, Ding Zhenzong gasped for breath. His whole figure seemed to be reborn. His mind had reached its limit. He was in a bad state after two Yang Fires were extinguished in succession.
"Ding Zhenzong?"
There was a very soft but clear cry from outside the door. It was tentative and sounded very realistic.
Ding Zhenzong no longer hesitated, stretched out his hand to open the door and responded, "Miss Li Bai, it's me. You're finally here. I've been waiting for you..."
The next second, Ding Zhenzong's actions and unfinished words came to an abrupt end.
Looking from behind, Ding Zhenzong's whole body was trembling. There was no scary scene outside the door. It was not scary or bloody. To be precise, there was nothing outside the door. It was empty.
Before Ding Zhenzong could react, a voice floated out from behind him, "Ding Zhenzong?"
"Ding Zhenzong? Ding Zhenzong?"
The eldest young master behind the curtain sat up at some point. His mouth moved, but what came out was Li Bai's voice.
The video ends here. Judging from the length, there is more to come, but it seems to have been subject to some kind of strong interference. The picture is very fragmented, and even the snowflake screen of an old-fashioned TV appeared at one point.
Doesn't provide any useful information at all.
But Jiang Cheng clearly remembered that at the last moment, it was already the agreed shift change time, but the person who was supposed to change the shift, Li Bai, did not show up.
To be fair, Ding Zhenzong has done well enough. Except for being attacked by a surprise attack at the beginning and extinguishing two Yanghuo, he could hardly make any mistakes later. Even Jiang Cheng would be hard-pressed to do better than him.
To be precise, Ding Zhenzong was not completely killed by ghosts, he died in the hands of his teammates!
Li Bai!
Li Bai didn't change her shift at all according to the agreed time!
Jiang Cheng even suspected that all this was planned by Li Bai and Yao and Shunyu. Li Bai was not prepared to go to the night vigil at all, at least not on time. She was waiting for Ding Zhenzong to die. As long as he died, she would be safe tonight.
Facing Jiang Cheng's scrutinizing gaze, Li Bai admitted frankly, "Mr. Jiang, you don't need to look at me like that. I just want to live. After Yao and Shunyu came back, they told me about the weirdness in the eldest young master's room. I I consider myself to be of average ability, but if I really go there on time, I’m afraid I won’t be able to come back.”
Even Fatty understood the subtext behind this sentence. She needed to wait until Ding Zhenzong died before she could leave, because only in this way would that night be relatively safe.
Yao Shunyu shrugged indifferently, "If it were an ordinary person, I might not help with this, but Brother Ding Zhenzong Jiang, you should know what kind of person he is. He is a threat to all of us while he is alive."
"He and Lin Qianqian are in the same group, and his methods and temperament are far superior to Lin Qianqian's. I have tried to provoke him many times to get a handle on him, but he has avoided me every time."
Fatty didn't think that much. He thought that Ding Zhenzong was the second to last one in the team who was only slightly stronger than him. But after listening to Yao Shunyu's words, he realized that this person was much more difficult to deal with than he thought.
Jiang Cheng naturally had no need to avenge Ding Zhenzong. It would be best for him to die. "Judging from the video, Ding Zhenzong was killed after three sun fires were extinguished first."
"Yes, according to my analysis and that of Miss Li Bai, the eldest young master was already dead before the three of us arrived, which means that what we are guarding is only a corpse, and it is the resentful infant entangled in the corpse that is manipulating it. "
"In the end, he was also killed by the resentful infant. This can be seen from the empty stomach of the corpse. It is consistent with the death of Mr. Wu, Manager Zheng, and the three wooden wives."
"The Resentful Infant is afraid of Yang Fire and cannot kill people directly, so we must first use means to extinguish the Yang Fire on living people. Judging from the video and our personal experience, there are three main ways. First, you must not bow your head when facing the Resentful Infant. . Second, you can’t turn around. Third, you must be careful of the corpse that is entangled by the resentful baby and slaps you on the shoulder.”
Speaking of patting on the shoulder, they met once not long ago. On the way to take Mr. Wu's body for burial, they encountered a ghost hitting the wall. Among them, Yuan Shanyuan, who was walking at the end, even had a ghost put his hand on his shoulder.
It is said that this is called ghost walking on the shoulder. Li Bai told everyone that ghost walking on the shoulder is extremely dangerous. Most people will lose themselves when being carried by a ghost. If they keep walking under the control of the ghost, they will either encounter a cliff and fall to death, or walk into the river and drown. In short , there will be no good results. There are definitely two reasons for Yuan Shanyuan to survive.
"By the way, Yuan Shanyuan was picked up by a ghost, so that means he was extinguished by at least one sun fire, right?" The fat man suddenly cheered up. It was not just the three of them who were unlucky, Yuan Shanyuan was also in the same situation as them.
Li Bai thought for a moment and nodded, "That should be the case. Even with Bai Yu's ability, it is impossible to lend a yang fire to Yuan Shanyuan. After all, she is a ghost, and being a ghost is in conflict with the yang fire."
"Why, ghosts can't do it, how can humans do it?" Jiang Cheng looked at Li Bai in surprise, "Yanghuo...can I borrow it too?"
