Chapter Five: The Evil at Ping Hotel
"Jiang Chen, why are you in a daze?"
Ma Siyu stopped the car and urged: "Get out of the car quickly!"
I came back from my thoughts, got out of the car and found that Xu Fugui had arranged for someone to put up a sign. The huge neon horizontal sign that read "Jiang Chen Supernatural Firm" shocked me.
"How is it? Isn't it grand?" Xu Fugui approached and said, "Although the venue was provided by Ma Siyu and the decoration was paid for by my uncle and the others, it is all my credit for doing the errands and supervising the work."
Yes! I have to say: "Thank you for your hard work!"
"You're welcome, brother!" Xu Fugui's expression changed slightly: "But, can you settle the matter of the female ghost in red?"
"What?" I looked at him: "You have a shadow in your heart and you are afraid to take the elevator at night?"
Ouch! Xu Fugui's expression twisted: "Don't mention the elevator, I look at the neon lights, red and green, and I feel scared!"
Really? Ma Siyu came up and said: "I think Na, you are more afraid that the matter will not be resolved. Although you are not familiar with the hotel owner, it is inevitable that you will go to a nightclub and come into contact in the social circle. You are afraid that if people spread the word, in the future
They say you exaggerate and brag."
Xu Fugui smiled apologetically: "This reason...of course there is a little bit of it."
I already had some idea about the female ghost. I simply said: "Let's give it a try. You contact the hotel owner yesterday, bring a handful of incense and a red letter, and treat me to a meal. But there is no absolute way to intervene.
I’m sure it will work.”
"Yes!" Xu Fugui looked overjoyed and immediately picked up his cell phone to contact him.
Ma Siyu looked at the neon sign that was about to be hung: "It will be covered with red cloth later. You can quickly pick a date to open the business."
"You don't have to choose, you can't expect a prosperous business in yin and yang business. The best fate is to meet the sun..."
So I said: "Today!"
Today? Ma Siyu's eyes changed: "I didn't invite anyone to congratulate me. It's too hasty to do it in such a deserted way."
I am serious. After all, I have to offer sacrifices tonight, so I said: "No wait, today is the day!"
After Xu Fugui made the call, he couldn't help but come over and ask: "So after this opening, will I call you Boss Jiang or Manager Jiang from now on?"
I was embarrassed, Ma Siyu smiled and said: "Master!"
"Don't be ridiculous..." Xu Fugui laughed: "In Shangjing, the rich men who go to the nightclubs don't call themselves young masters. Only those who work in the nightclubs are called young masters."
I told the truth: "Actually, in our industry, unmarried people are called boys, and married people are called Arhats or King Kongs!"
Pfft! Xu Fugui couldn't help but laugh: "Then it's better to call me Young Master!"
At that time, I didn't know what a young man working at a nightclub was like. I just heard Ma Siyu get angry and scold him for being unable to spit out ivory.
Immediately, a simple meal was arranged in the cafe. Ma Siyu tried his best to arrange the best meal, so as to celebrate my first day of business. But the meal cost, the victims who were rushed over rushed to pay for it.
He also brought incense and a red envelope as promised. I felt that the red envelope was very thin, far less thick than the one Uncle Chen gave me.
I put the red envelope under the incense burner at the entrance of the hall, and according to the rules, one burner and one incense!
After receiving instructions from Hu Jiuniang and Meihu, I took out a piece of white paper and wrote down the things I would use tonight, and gave them to him who repeatedly warned me that they must be prepared before tonight.
Moreover, I also emphasized: "There are no guests in the hotel tonight!"
Don’t worry! The victim said frankly: “After this happened, employees stopped coming to work one after another. Even the front desk lady yesterday resigned today. No one checked into the hotel three days ago.”
"That's good!" I asked him to hurry up and get ready, everything is indispensable!
Immediately, I asked Xu Fugui to drive me to find willow trees by the Shangjing River, and weave the branches into willow whips...
Xu Fugui couldn't help but be curious. After all, many people know that mulberry, willow, locust, and poplar are the four major ghost trees. Planting these trees at home has the effect of attracting ghosts. After a long time, the house will be restless. But there are many
People say that the willow tree among the four ghost trees can drive away ghosts.
So he asked me: "Does this willow branch attract ghosts, or does it drive away ghosts?"
I played with the willows and elaborated: "Both statements are correct. It depends on the growth environment of the willows. Just like the willows by the river and the willows on the mountains, they are obviously different. The willows by the river are close to the water, and their branches
After breaking it off, you can nail the soul to beat the ghost. As the saying goes, the willow branch will beat the ghost, and the more you beat it, the smaller it gets. But the willow tree on the mountain is a very sinister plant that can attract ghosts and retain ghosts. In fact, in the world,
Ghosts are very taboo about willow trees. To put it bluntly, willow trees are also related to Buddhism. For example, the jade purification vase in Guanyin's hand is filled with willow branches."
certainly...
I waved the braided wicker whip and decided to use this method because willow trees can control hundreds of ghosts. There is also another reason, not only because of Buddhism and Guanyin Master, but also because of the two ancient legends Shen Tu and Yu Lei.
Door gods. Shen Tu and Yu Lei hate evil and are the earliest messengers of door gods. The two priests catch ghosts and subjugate demons in the world. All ghosts and monsters in the world are afraid of hearing their names. There is a ferocious beast left over from ancient times that is very ferocious and always appears in the world.
To do evil, Shen Tu and Yu Lei fought with this ferocious beast for three days and three nights.
Shen Tu and Yu Lei finally caught it before they were exhausted. However, during the fight, the rope they tied up the demon was lost, and there happened to be a willow tree next to it. Tu and Yu Lei tried it, and they felt that the willow tree was very resilient.
, they used willow branches to tie up the evil beasts. The willow tree became different after being exposed to divine power. Since then, it has been feared by all ghosts, so people inserted willow sticks on doors to ward off evil spirits.
And it is said that when they catch evil spirits, they tie them up with wicker sticks and feed them to tigers.
I think if she is trapped with wicker tonight, she will definitely not be able to escape.
After weaving the wicker whip, the sky gradually began to darken...
We drove directly to the Express Hotel. The boss had already prepared everything on the list and stacked it all at the stairwell of the tenth floor.
There was no staff in such a big hotel except him, so I asked him to check the occupancy records of each room on the tenth floor a week ago.
But the information was not complete at all, and the young boss frowned: "Express hotels like ours don't pay much attention to identity information, because..."
"What about surveillance?" Xu Fugui asked impatiently.
The young boss was helpless: "The surveillance videos are all in the security room. I didn't dare to put them on the counter for fear of a sudden inspection..."
Surveillance is fine! I said: "You don't need to go up to help tonight. Just go to the security room and check all the female tenants who stayed on the tenth floor a week ago. She may not have been wearing red at the time, or she may not have come to the hotel alone."
"
Okay! The boss responded. As long as he is not allowed to enter the elevator or go to the tenth floor, he can help.
After the explanation, Xu Fugui and I went up to the tenth floor and made sure that the windows in the corridor were closed and there was no ventilation. We divided the incense into three sticks and placed them at the door of each room and closed the door.
The quiet observation made Xu Fugui curious: "What are you looking at?"
Look at the corpse...
