My heart sank and I didn't call again. My vigilance suddenly increased a lot.
When I got out of bed, I didn't use my right arm and held a razor in my left hand.
Gently, I walked to the door.
Just then, a slight thumping sound came into my ears.
"Brother Luo, are you awake?" The hoarse voice, strange and familiar, isn't it Zhang Gui?
Frowning, I put away the razor and reached out to open the door.
Standing outside the door was still a thin man. Although his appearance had changed, his demeanor and temperament were exactly the same as Zhang Gui's.
This is actually not surprising.
There are many specific details to the matter of resurrecting a dead body.
For example, corpses and souls are similar and close. After the corpse is resurrected, the constraints of the soul are smaller and the soul can exert its strength better.
"Brother Luo." Zhang Gui's face was full of smiles.
My face was extremely calm, even showing a hint of indifference.
"This..." Zhang Gui looked slightly unnatural.
"Brother Luo, please don't mind. Before you entered the hospital last night, you were using your mobile phone. After that, you went in and didn't come out for a long time. Qu Wei is a cautious person and left temporarily."
"Brother Luo also understands that only by being careful can you win the Wannian Ship. He is working down there and cannot let his guard down."
"As soon as he came back and reported to me, I came out as soon as possible, and my body was not even warmed up."
"I know that Brother Luo will have no problem. I have to explain and apologize to Brother Luo in person."
Zhang Gui's words were extremely sincere.
I just hummed, and the displeasure on my face disappeared.
Of course, this displeasure was intentional on my part.
Zhang Gui’s words also made me feel relieved.
It turned out that Qu Wei was just vigilant, not that the ghost niche organization had discovered something.
"Brother Luo Hu, and Brother Zhao Xi, do you have any news?" I changed the topic.
Zhang Gui's demeanor is much better because I didn't get angry.
But then he shook his head and frowned and said: "There was no news last night. It's dawn now. I don't know the situation. There are many people at the entrance of the village, but I didn't let them in."
"We have to wait until dark before we can see if Luo Hu and Zhao Xi can escape."
"I think... it may be more dangerous than good. Losing both of them is a heavy price."
After saying this, Zhang Gui's expression was extremely complicated.
I was also silent, with unbearable and a trace of annoyance in my eyes.
"I ignored you. If I had told you in advance, we wouldn't have..."
"Brother Luo, if you still blame yourself like this, where will that put me?" Zhang Gui looked bitter.
Obviously, he was implying that he did not listen to the advice at that time.
I just forced a smile and still didn't say much.
When acting, you have to do a complete set to make it more realistic.
A few seconds later, Zhang Gui let out a light sigh and said, "However, having said that, this trip did suffer a lot of losses, but it was not without gains. After eliminating the intermediary between Zhao Kang and Wen Huanggui, he was the only one left. We still have to go to Qijia Village for the rest of the souls that have come out."
"Brother Luo, please go to a place with me first."
After saying this, Zhang Gui made a gesture of invitation.
I hesitated for a moment and then asked: "Brother Zhang, where are you going?"
Zhang Gui smiled and said: "This time, Brother Luo could actually leave me alone and leave directly, but Brother Luo didn't do that, which shows Brother Luo's attitude towards us. I took you there, naturally. A place where you can trust us more and be more willing to join us.”
Suddenly, my heart sank even more.
The apparent relationship with Zhang Gui has reached this point. If I refuse now, it will inevitably destroy some of the friendship.
But once he follows, he will be roasted on the fire again.
At that time, there are only two ways before me, either join the ghost niche, or continue to refuse.
If you refuse in that place, I am afraid it will not only destroy the newly established "relationship".
After thinking about it, I didn't show it on my face, but said, "Brother Zhang, I don't think it's appropriate."
"What's wrong?"
I let Zhang Gui into the house, carefully looked at both sides of the corridor, and then closed the door.
"Brothers Luo Hu and Zhao Xi, their lives and deaths are unknown. That's what's wrong. Something happened to them, and I join the ghost niche again. What do I want their people to think? What do I want Qu Wei and the others to think?"
"Then, what do the people next to you think?" I said in a deep voice.
"Brother Luo, you can rest assured about this. I can guarantee that there won't be..." Zhang Gui replied firmly.
However, before he could finish speaking, I interrupted him.
"People's hearts are unpredictable. I trust Brother Zhang, but I can't trust others. Please forgive me."
"I still feel that the matter must be concluded before we can take the next step. Otherwise, everything will be hidden dangers." I shook my head and spoke decisively.
Zhang Gui didn't show any displeasure. After thinking for a moment, he nodded and said, "Brother Luo is right to be worried. Then let's wait outside Qijia Village."
in my heart:"……"
Zhang Gui's words both inside and outside tied me together. When the time comes and we wait outside Qijia Village for no results, he will still mention joining the ghost shrine again.
In fact, the best situation is for me and him to maintain the current relationship without destroying it or taking it any further.
In this way, the benefits to me are maximized.
If the supervising Taoist priest wants to kill me, I can drag the ghost niche down!
"Brother Zhang, I won't go to Qijia Village for the time being. I'll leave you your contact information. How about I contact you when I deal with some immediate matters?" I spoke again and declined Zhang Gui's proposal.
"This..." Zhang Gui frowned slightly before saying, "You are injured, and you are being targeted by the supervising Taoist priests and Huang Si. In addition, since you are walking with us, they will definitely be more wary of you, and may even attack you. Dead hand, if you travel alone, something may happen easily."
The worry in Zhang Gui's eyes was not fake.
I smiled and said, "They have been staring at me for a long time, but the mountain people have their own tricks. You can't let them stare, and you won't live or do anything, right?"
"Brother Luo is reasonable, and what he said is true." Zhang Gui nodded, and then said: "Brother Luo, try your best to keep yourself safe. If you have any problems, please contact me. There are many ghost shrines in Jinyang City. Really If something happens, I will guide you there and you can save the day. I'd better go to Qijia Village as soon as possible."
Then, the two of us exchanged contact information before Zhang Gui left.
I looked out the window at the street outside the building and saw Zhang Gui getting on a car on the side of the road, which made me feel frightened.
If I hadn't smelled the corpse odor before and had called Chuying directly, Zhang Gui might have heard that there was a problem.
After that, I didn’t call Yingying back.
I just sent a message saying that I still have some things to do and cannot return to the village for the time being.
And I told her not to have too much curiosity in the village, and as long as it didn’t concern her, try not to touch her.
Hotaru didn't reply to me immediately.
I suddenly thought about something, Tang Quan didn't tell Chuying about Lao Qintou?
Didn't she go to the village to inquire about it herself?
