    The room is at the end of the corridor on the right side of the second floor, which is commonly known as the "tail room", and beyond that is the fire escape.

    He Jia took the key to open the door, and the Winter Solstice asked her to wait at the door, while she went in and walked around.

    The layout of this room is not much different from other rooms. The only difference is that there is an extra table next to the window. There is an incense burner on it. The three incense burners have been burnt out. The incense burner is full of incense ashes. Three kinds of fruits are served.

    The winter solstice walked around the room, and was about to come out, when he suddenly stopped, squatted beside the bed, and wiped the floor beside the bed with his fingers.

    But he didn't stay long, got up quickly, clapped his hands to brush away the incense ashes, and walked out of the room.

    He Jia was a little surprised: "Okay?"

    He smiled and said: "Okay, the incense in the incense burner is exhausted, do you want to add some more?"

    He Jia shook his head: "My aunt asked me to order once a week, and I don't need to worry about other times."

    The two went up to the third floor.

    He Jia pointed to a room and said, "Brother Dong, this is 3013, your room, next to 12 is mine. If you have anything to do at night, call customer service, they are on duty 24 hours a day."

    Winter Solstice said with a smile: "You don't have to accompany me, I'm just here to stay fresh and collect some materials."

    He Jia's face was a little red, and he was embarrassed to say that he was very happy to accompany him to eat and play, so he had to say: "It doesn't matter, I take care of this shop every day, doing handicrafts, and the schedule is quite free..."

    Before she could finish speaking, she snorted.

    The winter solstice followed her line of sight and saw that at the end of the corridor on the other side, a person was lying on the window sill, his upper body was almost outside, and he was still slowly poking out.

    "What is he doing!" He Jia exclaimed.

    On the winter solstice, he ran over quickly, grabbed the clothes on the back of the other party, and dragged the person back!

    The other party was a middle-aged man, and when he was dragged back to the ground, he was still confused: "Why are you pulling me, what's wrong!"

    In order to allow the guests to overlook the scenery here, and the height of the windows is above the waist of an adult, there is no guardrail outside the window sill. He Jia never thought that someone would use the height of the third floor to commit suicide. One scene, can not help but lingering fear.

    "You almost fell off just now!"

    The man scratched his head and looked blank: "I'm just smoking a cigarette by the window!"

    He Jia frowned: "Do I need to stick out most of my body to smoke?"

    "I don't have any... eh, where's my lighter?" He rummaged around in his pockets.

    This little episode attracted a few residents to open the door, but it wasn't a big deal. The man quickly went back to his room. He Jia simply closed and locked the window to prevent another accident.

    "There used to be flower pots outside, but a few of them withered yesterday, so I'll have them move them out and wait for new ones." She was a little scared. If something happened to the guest in the hotel, then her hotel would also be opened. Can't go down.

    The two chatted for a while, and went back to their rooms. He Jia specially prepared a spacious and luxurious queen-size suite for him, not only with a balcony, but also a small bathroom with a bathtub and floor-to-ceiling windows next to it. Take a bath while looking out at the sea.

    The style of the room is the same as the outside. It is gorgeous and not vulgar. There are gauze tents around the big bed, and the quilt on the bed is also covered with lace. Everything is almost dreamy. The lights are slowly flowing overhead. If you can lie on this bed for three It must be the most pleasant thing in life.

    Just standing beside the bed and watching, the winter solstice felt tired and couldn't help bending over and reaching out to touch it.

    But his movements suddenly stopped.

    Although the body made a tired gesture, the mind was still awake, and a little coolness spread on the neck. The winter solstice couldn't help reaching out and touched a triangular talisman.

    That was the soothing charm that Long Shen put on him before he came out.

    Although it can't dispel evil and suppress demons, it can at least calm the mind and calm the spirit and keep the spiritual platform clear and bright.

    There is something wrong with this hotel.

    He noticed it from the time he was at the door, and when he entered the room, the feeling that something was wrong became stronger and stronger.

    If there is an aura here, people who pass by or come in will give birth to nostalgia that they don't want to leave after staying there, why don't He Jia and the hotel staff feel this way?

    He Jia even felt that it made her uncomfortable and didn't want to come in.

    But He Jia doesn't seem to have any weird look on her body. If it is pretending, then her acting skills can win an Oscar.

    During the winter solstice, he walked around the room and found nothing for the time being. On the contrary, after one day, he came out of sweat, put down the piano case, and went into the bathroom to take a shower.

    The tourism industry in Lucheng is very developed, but most of the tourists who come here love to stay in this kind of private hotel with Chinese and Western architectural features, and experience the style of Lucheng. There are fewer people who choose to go to star-rated hotels, so people like He Jia Hostels are scattered all over Heron City, especially in the coastal areas and on the islands away from the city.

    Although it's not a regular hotel, it's very clean, the bathroom is neat and tidy, and the toiletries are all brand-name products, no worse than a star-rated hotel.

    He turned on the faucet and was about to wash his face first, when suddenly he heard a bit of noise outside, remembering that he forgot to bring his cell phone in, thinking it was because it was ringing, so he opened the door and went out to get it, only to see that the TV in the room turned on by itself and the news was playing.

    Winter Solstice was stunned.

    The remote control is still in the cabinet, and the TV is not voice-controlled, so it is impossible to turn it on by itself under normal circumstances.

    But apart from him, there was no one else in the room, and the door was closed.

    He turned off the TV, picked up his phone, and went back into the bathroom.

    This time, until the shower was successfully completed, nothing happened outside.

    The body moistened with water relieved a lot of fatigue. In the winter solstice, I put on a bathrobe and walked out of the bathroom. Suddenly, there was a clattering sound behind me, and the faucet turned on inexplicably.

    He turned his head.

    What came out of the faucet was not transparent water, but dark red and thick blood.

    The blood flowed into the washstand, and blood beads splashed out again, and the table was quickly covered with blood, which was extremely terrifying.

    Winter Solstice stared at the faucet for a while, then turned away without turning it off.

    When he lay on the bed and picked up his phone, he heard the sound of running water stop, and the tap seemed to turn off by itself.

    He pouted and suddenly remembered that when he was staying in a hotel in Changchun, he felt that someone was watching his affairs in the middle of the night, and there were people and demons living next to him. Although he was still ignorant at the time, there were not many people who could be neighbors with people and demons these days. One, compared to that time, now it can only be regarded as pediatrics.

    As if in response to his contempt, after turning off the light and going to bed, the faucet automatically turned on again soon, and it was on and off for a while, and the noise in the bathroom was not heard.

    Winter Solstice took out a pair of earplugs directly from his pocket, plugged his ears, and continued to sleep.

    When he fell asleep, he felt that his nose was a little itchy, as if someone was teasing him with a dog's tail grass. He couldn't help but sneezed and opened his eyes again.

    Then he saw a "man" embedded in the ceiling, lying flat like him, with a dark face and long hair hanging down, the end just falling on his nose.

    A pair of red and strange eyes were staring at him.

    For ordinary people, it is estimated that they can be frightened and die of a heart attack.

    But when the winter solstice opened his eyes, his hand moved, slipped out of the bed, and a bright light talisman flew up.

    "The sky produces water, the earth produces fire, the sky produces wood, the earth produces gold, and the fifth is in the middle palace. It conquers evil, defeats disasters, and eliminates evil!"

    The moment Fu Huo came into contact with the thing, it burned, and the thing screamed shrilly, and the Fu Huo disappeared suddenly and cleanly.

    Dongzhi rubbed his eyes, sat up, and said calmly: "No matter what you are, I advise you to stop making trouble, otherwise, instead of driving me away, I will let me take you."

    There was no one else in the room except him. If He Jia saw him talking to himself in the air here, he would probably think he was insane.

    But what responded to him was a TV that suddenly turned on. On the screen, a foreign leader was speaking indignantly at the terrorist organization: "...We will never bow to any terrorist forces!"

    The winter solstice felt inexplicably happy and couldn't help laughing out loud.

    The faucet in the bathroom turned on by itself again, and the water was running endlessly.

    He ignored it, continued to lie down and went to sleep, and soon fell asleep.

    The night was long, and whenever something approached him, there would be a flash of red light about three feet away from him.

    That was the long guard sword he had placed beside his pillow.

    Suddenly, the faucet suddenly stopped the water, and the LCD TV turned off automatically.

    The sword's owner, Hao Meng, is in full swing and seems to be unaffected.

    The next day, the sky is bright, and the winter solstice wakes up automatically.

    He looked at the calm room and smiled, then walked into the bathroom to wash his face and brush his teeth.

    The water is not the blood saw last night, but normal water.

    Nearly nine o'clock, He Jia knocked on the door and invited him downstairs for breakfast.

    The hostel provides breakfast, both Chinese and Western styles, the dishes are also good, and many guests have already dined in it.

    He Jia took the initiative to ask, "Did you encounter anything strange last night?"

    Winter Solstice: "Why, did you meet?"

    He Jia lowered his voice: "It's not like we met, but when I was sleeping, I always felt that there was someone next to me. Last night, I dreamed that someone told me not to live here, and hurry up, but when I woke up, I couldn't remember who that person was. Did you meet me too?"

    After saying that, she wrinkled her nose: "I really don't like it here."

    The Winter Solstice didn't tell her what happened last night, but showed an interested look: "I went to bed early last night and didn't see anything, but you said that, I'm quite interested, why don't you go back first, I'll go to sleep in your room and see what happens tonight."

    He Jia opened his eyes wide, and seeing his excited look, he couldn't help but say, "Aren't you afraid?"

    Winter Solstice: "Of course not. Didn't you say that no one has ever had an accident? Even if there is something, it is probably just trying to scare us."

    He Jia: "Then I'll accompany you..."

    Winter Solstice stopped and said, "You've been with me all night. Maybe you're here. Those things will try to scare you, so they won't come to me. I'll experience it for myself, and I'll have materials for comics later. Also, I It feels a little weird."

    He Jia looked at him suspiciously.

    Winter Solstice: "Do you remember the man we met last night? If we didn't find out in time, he would fall headfirst, even on the third floor, his life would probably be in danger. According to what you said, although this place is strange, it never fails. No life has been killed, it shouldn't be like this."

    He Jia also remembered.

    The topic of the winter solstice changed: "However, it is also possible that he was not careful, drinking too much or something. In short, I have to look for a house during the day anyway, and now I live in a hotel, so I simply moved here for two days and changed the hotel. You are busy with your work, don't say hello to me."

    Since he planned like this, He Jia can't say anything else. She is Bai Fumei in the eyes of the world. Everyone else in the family has something to do. Only she took over the hotel of my aunt after graduation. Free, but she doesn't want to be too active and enthusiastic, so as not to scare away the male god.

    "Well, if you have any needs, just tell me directly. I can drive you to wherever you want to play."

    During the conversation, breakfast was coming to an end. In order to please the boss and his friends, the chef of the restaurant specially made two desserts and sent them over.

    Looking at the white and attractive blueberry custard on the winter solstice, was a little ecstatic for a while.

    He remembered that although Long Shen was not good at eating, when he went out to eat, he would occasionally take the initiative to pick up vegetables, and those dishes were basically sweet.

    I don't know if the other party likes this kind of jelly.

    He concentrated on the scenery in his heart, but he didn't know that he had also become the scenery in He Jia's eyes.

    After breakfast, the winter solstice routinely called Yan Nuo.

    Whether people find him or not is one thing. As a newcomer, he can't help but take the initiative, but Yan Nuo doesn't seem to mind that his master doesn't take the initiative at all. A little stunned, the winter solstice heard a lot of noise on the other end of the phone, and it seemed that there were still people arguing.

    "Brother Yan, where are you now?"

    "I'm at the police station, what's the matter?"

    "No, I want to ask if you need any help there?"

    Yan Nuo was a little impatient: "Didn't I tell you, I'll tell you if I need help! I heard that you are going out to look for a house and don't want to live in that old house? Then you can find the house first, I don't need it here. I'm worried!"

    After he finished speaking, he wanted to hang up again, and the winter solstice hurriedly said: "Brother Yan, I encountered a strange thing in the hotel. I wonder if you are free, or send someone over to take a look?"

    Yan Nuo: "We have more urgent matters to deal with, can you handle it yourself now?"

    Winter Solstice: "It's okay for now, but I don't know if there will be any situation in the future..."

    Yan Nuo interrupted him: "If you can't handle it, call me again. If you can handle it, deal with it first. Be careful and hang up!"

    This temper is so urgent!

    The winter solstice was a little helpless. It seemed that the conversation between him and Yan Nuo could not be completed to the end.

    Depressed, he sent another message to Long Shen, clearly reporting the strange things he encountered in the hotel. In fact, he also hoped that the other party would reply to comfort him, but his fingers stayed on the sent button for a long time, and finally Delete the information.

    Since he has the ability to solve problems, if he bothers Master with everything, what will Master think? It is estimated that he will feel that his ability is insufficient, and he will achieve nothing without wings.

    What kind of people Long Shen likes, the Winter Solstice is still unclear, but he knows what kind of apprentice Long Shen likes.

    He is definitely not an apprentice who asks for instructions and reports on a trivial matter.

    If you want to follow in the footsteps of an eagle, let yourself be an eagle too.

    He put the phone back in his pocket, went to the original hotel to check out, moved things to He Jia's hostel, then took a taxi back to the old house that was used as an office, and spent half a day doing a simple cleaning. , After lunch, went to a nearby housing agency, and followed the agency to several nearby places to see the house, but was not satisfied. The agency said that he still had a few houses in his hand, but the key was not in his hand for the time being. It will not be available until tomorrow, and the two parties have agreed to continue viewing the property tomorrow morning.

    At the end of the day, the winter solstice basically did not rest. When I returned to the hostel, it was already night. Thanks to Long Shen's "devil training" these days, his physical strength recovered a lot after Yinchuan invited God. Get down tired.

    "Sir, this is what our boss asked me to pass on, saying that she did it herself."

    As soon as he returned to the room, the little girl with a sweet smile at the front desk knocked on the door and brought him an exquisite gift box with a ribbon tied on it.

    The winter solstice thanked you and took it, and asked your boss again.

    The little girl said that the boss's house has something to do recently, and she went back to deal with it. Let us treat you well. If you need anything, just call the room service. There are drinks and snacks in the room. It is also very convenient to order take-out nearby.

    He Jia seemed to have said yesterday that she did have something to do today, and she didn't care about the winter solstice. She put down the gift box and went in to take a bath.

    This time, there were no such tricks as the TV was automatically turned on and blood was flowing from the faucet. Maybe the other party saw that he was not easy to fool and temporarily stopped.

    The winter solstice was very relaxing. After taking a shower, he took out the talisman paper and cinnabar from the piano box. During this time, he was busy practicing the steps, but he neglected to practice drawing talismans. It is important to know that there are many methods in the world, not only value talent, but also Study hard and practice hard, once any skill is slack, it is like a boat against the current, if you don’t advance, you will retreat.

    There are only two kinds of talismans he knows now. One is the bright light talisman, and the other is the thunder talisman.

    But Long Shen told him that the essence of drawing talismans is not much. The main function of Mingguang talismans is to calm the mind and calm qi, exorcise demons and ward off evil spirits, while thunder talismans are used to attract thunder talismans, because he is not like Li Ying and He Yu. So as long as you know these two and use them freely, it is enough to turn them into your own.

    When he was in the capital, his vitality was not restored, and Long Shen did not let him draw talismans, saying that it was easy to hurt his mind, so the main thing at that time was to practice breathing, and then learn to walk with the qi, and practice steps and swordsmanship. It was not until he left the capital that the master released it. The ban on his talismans.

    When saw the cinnabar talisman paper that had been out of date for a month, felt a familiar and friendly feeling. picked up luck on the winter solstice, closed eyes and adjusted breath. sketched the shape of the talisman in mind, then opened eyes and dipped in ink. All in one go.

    The most important thing in a talisman paper, in addition to the talisman, is the inheritance.

    The so-called inheritance refers to the inheritance of the Taoist sect on the talisman. Each talisman has the inheritance mark of the teacher. The ordinary person cannot see it, but the insider can see it at a glance. The inheritance of the Hezao School, Li Ying's talisman is the inheritance of Maoshan, Wu Bingtian is the Yuanming Palace and so on. A rune without inheritance is invalid, so a person who really knows how to read a rune can see the inheritance and skill of the person who draws the rune.

    Long Shen didn't have a teacher, so naturally he couldn't use the talisman, but the winter solstice did, and his name was still attached to the Hezao sect, so he could continue to use the talisman. Although Long Shen is very capable, he did not ask the Winter Solstice to give up drawing talismans, and even let the Winter Solstice have time to practice more, because the thunder method is very useful, but all the demons and ghosts in the Three Realms and Six Paths are afraid of the power of thunder, and cooperate with Bu Tiangang. , the effect is estimated to be more powerful than simply using thunder symbols.

    The winter solstice has not tried the actual effect of the combination of the two, so can't help but look forward to it. When was in Beijing, body didn't recover. Long Shen didn't let him use it. There is no special training space like the roof of the General Administration. Go to practice, in case someone sees it, it will be troublesome.

    I was in good shape tonight. painted the Winter Solstice for three hours in a row. counted it, and there were exactly ninety-nine pictures. Except for the scrapped paintings, there are still sixteen pictures that can be used.

    This is already a record-breaking success rate. When he first learned to draw talismans, it would be amazing to be able to pick out one or two useful ones out of dozens. Not to mention He Yu, even the deceased Master Fang Yang did not have the ability to draw a picture and succeed. It is rumored that the most powerful talisman in the world today is the head of Longhushan, which is Zhang Song's master. His old man is the real talisman, and the talisman is frightening. However, this head Zhang is very old. It is also rare to draw talismans, and a safety talisman can be sold for sky-high prices when placed outside.

    Just as he picked up the painted runes and looked at them carefully, he heard a noise outside.

    The movement was not small, as if it came from the side of the stairs, followed by babble.

    On the winter solstice, put down the talisman, pushed open the door and went out to see, and saw that many tenants also heard the movement and opened the door, and there were also several people standing by the stairs, looking downstairs.

    "What's the matter?" There was also a waiter by the stairs, he walked over and asked.

    "A guest on the second floor seems to have a heart attack. He didn't bring any medicine. An ambulance has been called, but he hasn't arrived yet. The front desk asked us to come over and ask if anyone knows medicine?"

    On the winter solstice, heart moved, and ran to the second floor.

    In the corridor on the second floor, a middle-aged woman was lying at the door of one of the rooms, surrounded by a lot of people, and someone was giving her first aid.

    "Mom, Mom, wake up!" A young girl wiped her tears next to her.

    The person who did the first aid was very professional, and his expression was calm. He looked like he was a doctor or a doctor, and there were strangers next to him, and they were all helping to find emergency medicine on the phone.

    The winter solstice didn't understand medicine, so he didn't come forward to join in the fun, but he looked around for a week, his eyes stopped suddenly, and the usually gentle and harmless peach blossom eyes narrowed slightly.

    The person doing first aid is punching the victim's heart with their fists.

    In the eyes of others, there is nothing abnormal. This is the first aid method for heart attack.

    But the winter solstice saw that every time his fist went down, he failed to touch the opponent's chest.

    Because it was blocked by a dark shadow.

    If you look closely, there seems to be something hidden behind the rescuer, like a shadow that can't be seen by the lights. If there seems to be nothing, a human-shaped outline is vaguely brewing, which is attached to the rescuer's back, and then stretches out his "hand" to block it. Between the rescuer's hand and the sick person's body, the sick person is prevented from being rescued.

    But the people around didn't notice it. In their eyes, it was clear that the rescuer had been helping, but the patient had no response. The situation was obviously not good.

    If this continues, within a few seconds, the patient will die!

    The winter solstice held the Mingguang Talisman in his hand, quietly went around behind the rescuer, suddenly stretched out his hand, and slapped the man on the back of the neck!

    The man who was concentrating on saving people screamed in pain, Dongzhi quickly retracted his hand, and put his clenched fist in his pocket.

    "I seem to have seen flies on your neck just now..." He hesitated, looking embarrassed.

    Everyone glared at him when they saw that he was obstructing the first aid.

    "What's the mess, people are saving lives, didn't you see it?!"

    "What a bear boy, go away!"

    Others stepped forward to push him, Dongzhi apologized repeatedly, and backed away.

    "There is a reaction! There is a reaction!"

    "She's awake!"

    After a while, everyone screamed in surprise, and they didn't care about the winter solstice.

    The ambulance also came, and everyone helped lift the person onto the stretcher. The family thanked the person who helped with the first aid, and soon followed the car. The onlookers were still discussing the dangerous scene just now. The middle-aged man surrounded him and praised him for his skillful and kind-heartedness. The man was embarrassed by the praise, and hurriedly said that he was a doctor. He often encountered this kind of thing when he went out, and taught others how to first aid.

    No one noticed that the winter solstice had left the scene and quietly returned to the room.

    The author has something to say:

    Winter Solstice: After the matter is over, I will hide my merit and fame. I will pretend to be forceful next time.
