    When talking about Fengfeng, He Shu was vague and vague, otherwise the explanation would be endless.

    But he said that the scene where Liang Qingru was chased by the woman everywhere was already thrilling enough.

    There was a man and a woman next to him, and his eyes were even straightened when he heard it.

    The boy interrupted He Shu's remarks and couldn't wait to ask, "So, there are really ghosts here, aren't they?"

    There was no fear in his tone, even a hint of excitement.

    Fang Yue couldn't help frowning and looked at He Shu.

    He Shu explained helplessly: "I met these two people when I came here. The man's name is Chenqia, and the woman's name is Sun Meng. Sneaked up from the parking lot to do a live broadcast. Just now you grabbed yourself by the window and jumped off a building. I injured my leg and walked slowly, but they pulled you back."

    The live broadcasting industry has been very prosperous in recent years, and the competition is fierce. Many live broadcasters do not hesitate to risk their lives in order to win more hits. Chenqia and Sun Meng have just entered the industry not long ago. They usually tell the audience supernatural stories. This place is really haunted, so thought about it, and walked around in the dead of night to make a stunt.

    Unexpectedly, in order to facilitate He Shu and the others, Zheng Qi greatly reduced the security measures tonight. The two came up from the underground parking lot, and they went all the way in an unmanned environment. They simply came in to do the live broadcast. Trapped here, almost scared to death.

    Hearing He Shu said that she was pinching her neck, Fang Yue subconsciously retorted.

    "No, I didn't strangle myself, I was strangled by someone!"

    She touched her neck with still lingering fears, it hurt when touched, and when she took a picture with the camera function of her mobile phone, she could clearly see the pinch marks of her fingers.

    But He Shu and the others didn't see what was in her mouth.

    In the eyes of others, Fang Yue was indeed strangling her neck by herself, her body was trying her best to squeeze out of the window, and her posture was strange no matter how she looked.

    Then again, did those people who had an accident before also had an accident under the control of various hallucinations like this?

    If He Shu and the others didn't arrive in time, would Fang Yue be the next "accident"?

    Seeing that she was lost in thought, He Shu spoke slowly.

    "In this building, eight people die every year, don't you think it's strange? Maybe it was an accident at the beginning, but there are more coincidences, so it's not always an accident. So we speculate that someone may have laid something here to deliberately Pushing those accidents to happen, turning all coincidences into conspiracies."

    Fang Yue was slightly shocked. He Shu's statement coincided with what his master said before.

    "At that time, you asked us to wait for you outside first, and then your friend went in to find you, Xiao Qian followed, and they both disappeared. After my master checked it for a long time, he said that there may be someone here who has set up an array and was put in the pocket. It will be very difficult to come out, unless the eye is found, but the old man is missing now, and I shouldn't have come in just now."

    Fang Yue rubbed her brows and gave a general description of her experience, including Assistant Qian who disappeared behind Guanghan, and she was attacked after picking up the 1999 newspaper, and almost died.

    "Little elder sister, you just mentioned the newspaper in 1999, and I remembered something."

    Sun Meng raised her hand timidly when she heard this.

    Everyone looked at her.

    "I checked the information before I came. On October 24, 1999, a fire broke out in this building. At that time, almost the entire building was burned down, and more than 30 people were trapped inside. The building was rebuilt after the demolition."

    October 24th?

    Fang Yue snorted: "The newspaper I saw just now has the same date, and the newspaper is brand new, like it just came out that day!"

    Could it be that after the reconstruction of this building, the wronged souls of the deceased lingered in the building to catch ghosts, causing innocent people to die frequently?

    No, not right!

    If that's the case, it's impossible for the building to be so peaceful. No one dares to come in even during the day. How can it become one of the landmarks in the city center?

    Wait, eight...?

    Fang Yue's heart skipped a beat, and suddenly thought of an extremely terrifying possibility.

    She suddenly looked at He Shu!

    The latter also raised his head and met her eyes at the same time, as if thinking of something.

    Both of them could clearly see the shock in each other's eyes.

    "Miss Fang, let me ask you, when did your master receive this commission?"

    He Shu's face became extremely ugly.

    "Two months ago!" Fang Yue recalled, "At that time, I followed my master on the southern island to show people a newly developed land, and Mr. Zheng called and wanted to ask my master to meet, and learned that his old man was on the island. After that, it flew directly over the same day."

    "Two months ago?"

    At that time, Liang Qingru had no accident.

    Moreover, Zheng Qi flew to see Song Taiping immediately that day, which seemed to be too anxious, unusually anxious.

    Did he know in advance that something would happen to the building?

    Now looking back to sort out these details, Fang Yue also found that many things were not right.

    "and after?"

    "Afterwards, Master had a face-to-face meeting with him, and I was there. He said that the building had an accident last year and the year before, and he was afraid that another accident this year would affect the business of the building, so he wanted to ask Master to come out and help solve it."

    "He said that at the time, did he invite others at the same time?"

    "No, on the contrary, Master felt that this matter was a bit tricky. He thought that he was too old to be able to do it, so he asked Zheng Qi to hire another person. Zheng Qi refused to leave until he persuaded Master and agreed to go over and have a look."

    Having said that, Fang Yue frowned.

    "The level of danger here is far more dangerous than what Zheng Qi described to us, and if it is really so dangerous, it will not be peaceful during the day. But the fact is, as far as I know, the building is still working normally during the day. of."

    so

    "Will this place become more dangerous after we came in?"

    In other words, someone knew they were coming in and was waiting for them here on purpose.

    "Miss Fang, let me tell you about the situation on our side. Tonight, I went to a banquet with my friends, and the banquet was a little revealing. Zheng Qi invited us over to help investigate the situation of the building. There was also a fellow Taoist surnamed Wang. , Wang Zhixing."

    Hearing what He Shu said, Fang Yue nodded.

    Wang Zhixing is well-known in the industry, so it's not surprising that Zheng Qi would invite him, but when Zheng Qi invited so many people over at the same time, he didn't seem to respect people and didn't believe in Song Taiping's ability. At that time, Fang Yue was still quite unhappy. of.

    He Shudao: "Wang Zhixing, like you, was approached by Zheng Qi ahead of time, and so did Jin Yingxin, so among these people, we were the only ones who wanted to join in on a temporary basis."

    The more Fang Yue listened, the more confirmed the faint guess in her heart: "So, what do you mean?"

    "You and your master, Wang Zhixing, Jin Yingxin, Assistant Qian, me, and my friend Guanghan."

    He Shu stared at Fang Yue and continued slowly.

    "And Liang Qingru, there are eight people in total."

    Lightning flashed across his mind, and the explosion burst into flames, and Fang Yue could even hear a loud bang in his ears.

    She turned pale in an instant, thinking that it was true, but at the same time, she was terrified and shocked.

    He Shu points to Chenqia and Sun Meng.

    "These two people sneaked in from behind, not what Zheng Qi expected, so it doesn't count. The six of you were originally counted, but every year, eight people have an accident, and there are still two missing. It happened that Miss Qu asked Zheng Qi to Guanghan and I were recommended, and Zheng Qi proposed to meet us, so it is logical for the two of us to join you."

    Fang Yue's whole body stood up with cold hairs, she only felt horrified, and the cold air came out from the cracks in the bones, but she couldn't say a word.

    I only heard He Shu say word by word—

    "Eight people are just right, no one is missed, all are sacrifices!"

    Fang Yue froze all over, blood coagulated like wood.

    Chenqia and Sun Meng next to him were confused, and they were still asking: "What sacrifice?"

    He Shu ignored them and just looked at Fang Yue, if there was a deep meaning.

    Because only Fang Yue was present and could understand what he said.

    "Why, it's us?"

    Her lips trembled involuntarily, Fang Yue's voice was very soft, as if she was afraid of disturbing something.

    "It would be more convenient for him to arrange eight ordinary people."

    He Shu shook his head.

    "He can use his hands and feet to arrange for one or two ordinary people to have an accident, but it is difficult to arrange for eight ordinary people to have an accident at the same time in a short period of time. We are not people who work in the building. Even if something happens, he can arrange it easily. , Since it is a sacrifice, ordinary people are definitely not as good as those with Taoism. You should have also heard that the stronger the soul needed for the refining of the formation, the better."

    Wang Zhixing and Jin Yingxin do not like each other, and they will definitely find opportunities to express themselves and belittle their opponents.

    As for Song Taiping, he has been famous for a long time, and he will definitely not smash his own brand.

    He Shu and Guang Han are people who have inadvertently "cast themselves into the net". They are interested in Zheng Qi's generous remuneration, while Zheng Qi is looking for the last two candidates.

    The most unlucky assistant was Assistant Qian. Like Liang Qingru, he was just an ordinary person, but because he was suddenly favored by the big boss, he was flattered and wanted to perform positively, and the result was also included.

    In addition to Liang Qingru, who had an accident before, there are eight people, so far one is quite a lot.

    Fire in 1999.

    After that, the land was abandoned for many years, and the old buildings were not repaired.

    Until the land was auctioned out a few years ago, Zheng Qi took it and rebuilt the building.

    Eight people have accidents every year, for two years in a row.

    One has died this year, and seven more are needed, so Zheng Qi called seven of them to fill the gap.

    The world seems to be peaceful, but in fact it has always been undercurrent, the darkness is unknown, and even far beyond cognition.

    Fang Yue once heard her master say that the soul-devouring formation, which is refined with flesh and blood, becomes more greedy and bloodthirsty the further back you go. Ordinary people's lives can no longer meet their needs. It is like an insatiable monster. More and more powerful souls are needed to fill in, and Song Taiping and the others are good candidates.

    Or an offering that is automatically delivered to your door.

    These things together are enough to make people feel cold.

    "Come out!"

    He Shu suddenly spoke up.

    He said it to the air, Chenqia and Sun Meng looked at each other, thinking he was a fool.

    In the direction He Shu was facing, there were two desks in front, a pillar next to it, and a walkway behind the pillar.

    Where the light and shadow are graceful, the black shadow emerges little by little from behind the pillar, and finally reveals the complete figure.

    "Who!"

    Chenqia let out a shout, and stood up.

    Before he met He Shu, he had been frightened countless times and was a little suspicious.

    But in the next second, it turned out that he was not suspicious.

    Behind the pillar, there are more people, dodging, as if a little shy.

    "When is it, did I tell you everything in vain?" He Shu said helplessly.

    The voice fell, and the figure gradually appeared.

    Chenqia saw it clearly now, it was a young girl in business attire, with long hair and a good silhouette, her hands were twisted together, looking awkward and nervous.

    His sleeve was pulled hard, Chenqia heard Sun Meng's voice trembling.

    "She, she... I know her!"

    Sun Meng made a low voice, but the girl still heard it, and turned her eyes to this side. Sun Meng was so frightened that she hid directly behind Chenqia.

    "You guessed right, she is Liang Qingru."

    He Shu looked as usual, as if introducing an ordinary friend.

    Chenqia jumped three feet high, reacted more than Sun Meng, and hid a few meters away.

    Fang Yue looked at Liang Qingru carefully, except that the latter's face was pale and stiff, there was nothing unusual about him.

    He Shu is also glad that Liang Qingru did not appear dead, otherwise it would take a lot of time just to appease the others to calm down.

    "Qingru, we are running out of time, your experience is of great help to us."

    "My memory is not very clear, it may be a little confusing."

    "It doesn't matter, just tell what you remember."

    Liang Qingru looked around, Chenqia and Sun Meng both lowered their heads to avoid her gaze.

    Fang Yue was absent-minded and didn't know what to think.

    Only He Shu always looked at her.

    "I remember that the elevator stopped on the 14th floor, and it didn't continue to go down. I could only go out to find the emergency passage, but those doors couldn't be opened. At this time, the woman chased after me, I kept running, she kept chasing, In the end I seemed to be stepping in the air, and then..."

    Then there was the shattering pain, so painful that she couldn't even cry out for help.

    I don't know how long this pain lasted, she thought she was dead, but——

    "When I woke up again, I just remembered that I had to go back to work overtime and finish the work. Occasionally that woman would catch up and I would run. If I was caught up by her, I would repeat that over and over again. It hurts to step in the air, so later I was scared when I heard her footsteps."

    "Do you know who she is?" He Shu asked.

    Liang Qingru shook his head: "I only know that there are many people trapped here. Sometimes I often accidentally break into another space and see them all being controlled by this woman with silk threads. I don't know how to describe them. They are very painful. But he couldn't run at all."

    Speaking of this, a deep fear appeared on her face.

    It was like seeing the most terrifying sight in the world.

    "Little elder sister, what did you mean by another space?"

    Sun Meng gathered up her courage and asked in a low voice.

    Liang Qingru glanced at her, so frightened that Sun Meng almost hid behind her companions again.

    "The other space is another space, and I can't explain it clearly. Inside are old desks, newspapers and magazines are all from 1999, and the company sign at the door is not Hexuan Real Estate. It's like traveling back in time and space to the past. , In that space, the woman's strength is very strong, I have been caught by her several times and run away when she is not paying attention."

    Liang Qingru's face was gloomy.

    She is not completely unaware that she is dead, but if she admits this fact, she will find herself trapped here, unable to get out at all, and eventually become a woman's puppet like those dead souls.

    Therefore, Liang Qingru would rather keep repeating the track of working overtime during his lifetime, so as to avoid the woman's pursuit.

    Liang Qingru's subconscious has already formed a thought: No matter how hard overtime is, it is better than being a puppet entangled in those threads. She would rather work overtime every day to death than be caught!

    Maybe her obsession was too stubborn, and even the woman couldn't help her for a while. Liang Qingru kept circling the building, struggling to escape, until he met He Shu and them.

    "This is a typical binding spirit formation!"

    Fang Yue took a deep breath. Ever since she and her master were trapped here, she had vaguely guessed that things were going to be troublesome, but she didn't expect it to be so troublesome.

    After the fire that year, those deceased were trapped here because they couldn't be saved. It is very likely to cause disaster in time. People with a heart saw this and set up a spirit binding array to speed up these dead souls to become earth bound spirits. Resentment was used for it. In recent years, new souls have been introduced to continuously inject vitality into the formation.

    What the other party wants to do with this formation is not yet clear, but one thing is certain, He Shu's guess is correct, including Liang Qingru, all of them are the sacrifices that the other party presets.

    What about Zheng Qi?

    Without him, He Shu and Song Taiping would not have gathered here overnight.

    Not only does Zheng Qi know the secrets of this building, he is probably also a key player in driving it.

    Fang Yue thought that if Master was here, he might be able to infer more things now.

    But Song Taiping was separated from them, and he didn't know his life or death.

    Sun Meng and Chenqia were confused and half understood.

    They are just two ordinary people, who dared to sneak in for a while, but did not expect that they would become a point of no return.

    That's all for Sun Meng, Chenqia stood up abruptly!

    "Enough! Are you filming some kind of live adventure show, deliberately creating gimmicks to attract attention! We are not obliged to accompany you to act here, where are the directors and photographers?! If you don't let us go, I will call the police!"

    When a person encounters something far beyond the scope of comprehension, it is easy to explain it with reasons that are easy for him to understand.

    He Shu could understand Chenqia's reaction, but they had nothing to do with Chenqia, so there was no need to get used to him.

    "Miss Fang, how much do you know about Zheng Qi?"

    He Shu ignored Chenqia and asked Fang Yue by himself.

    Fang Yue frowned and thought for a long time, then shook her head.

    "I'm not familiar with him, and I just heard from Master that Zheng Qi wanted to go to Thailand to ask for amulet for a while, and he came to ask my Master for advice before he left. Master said that Thai Buddhism belongs to Theravada Buddhism, although it is similar to China's Mahayana Buddhism. Buddhism originated from the same source, but they have become two almost independent religious sects for thousands of years. Those worshiped in Southeast Asia are also unacceptable to us. Many people will get into trouble if they don’t know much about it. He advised Zheng Qi not to go. "

    "But Zheng Qi still went."

    "It should be, he hasn't come to see Master for a long time after that."

    He Shu also heard Qu Jie mention about this matter.

    The amulet in Qu Jie's hand was also invited to Thailand after listening to Zheng Qi's introduction.

    The reason why they accepted Qu Jie's invitation to come to the banquet was also because Li Ying said that Zheng Qi probably still had amulets in his hand, and even knew the manipulator behind the amulets, and asked them to check them out.

    So, is the problem of this building now also related to these things?

    At the end of the day, can all problems be solved here?

    "Zheng Qi you said, is it Zheng Yonglong?" Sun Meng said suddenly.

    Several pairs of eyes fell on her.

    Sun Meng said: "If you're talking about him, I remember one thing."

    "Yes, Zheng Qi's real name is Zheng Yonglong." Fang Yue said.

    Sun Meng said: "Two years ago, Zheng Qisheng suffered a serious illness. It is said that he lay in the ICU for a long time and almost died. I heard that he would have to have a kidney transplant. Later, for some unknown reason, he suddenly recovered. Moreover, the film and television company under his name, which had suffered serious losses, suddenly came back to life, two consecutive films sold at the box office, and the funds were returned, and the chaos was flourishing."

    Fang Yue wondered: "How do you know such details?"

    Sun Meng was a little embarrassed: "I'm a fan of Qu Jie, and I liked Ning Bingxue before. These stars all have a fan base, so I went in and ate a lot of melons. It happened that both of them were closely related to Zheng Yonglong. You haven't been in the circle, you don't know those fans, you can pick up any material, I just saw those people say that Zheng Qi used some means to suddenly get better."

    It was mainly because of the so-called "insider information" she heard, some of which were too bizarre. If it weren't for the bizarre situation now, Sun Meng wouldn't have said it.

    "What means?"

    "Have you heard of seedlings?"

    "What do you mean, Zheng Qizhong passed away?" Fang Yue frowned.

    Sun Meng nodded: "This is one of the sayings, I don't quite understand it."

    The so-called planting foundation, to put it bluntly, is suspended animation.

    He Shudao: "Many people believe that life is determined in a few days. In order to escape the death ordained by God, they will pretend to bury people alive, so as to deceive God and prolong their life. There are many specific methods, the most common is to take the person's body. Hair or clothes, hold a funeral and burial, erect a burial mound, etc."

    Fang Yue nodded: "I've heard of it. This is a method of yin and yang. It's a bit like burying ancestors in a feng shui treasure land and giving back to future generations. Those who use the seed to escape death will prolong their lives. Several years. But after all, it is against the destiny, so people who use this method for him will usually be attacked by different sizes. "

    Speaking of which, her expression became strange.

    "So ordinary people in the same way will not agree to this kind of commission, unless the client is a person of high moral character, or..."

    "Or what?"

    Seeing that she didn't say anything, Sun Meng was intrigued.

    "Or it's a lot of money!"

    He Shu continued her words.

    "Under a heavy reward, there must be a brave man, and there will always be someone who is willing to contribute. It is rumored that there is a rich man in Haojing who has gained both fame and wealth throughout his life.Looking for an expert to extend his life, it turned out that under the millions of dollars, someone really planted a life foundation for him to extend his life for ten years."

    Sun Meng let out a cry, getting excited, and suddenly forgot that she was still in danger.

    "I've heard of that melon too, it really is true, right?"
