Chapter 42 The strange family
Ba Po did not close the door and kept staring at Gao Ming until they left the fifth floor of Building B.

"Didn't the abnormal incident occur in Building A? Why did all the residents in Building B turn into ghosts?" Zhu Miaomiao's face was pale. She was almost frightened to death when she and her eighth wife looked at each other just now.

"Fat sister-in-law was fine during the day. Maybe she was killed by a ghost not long after we left." Gao Ming shook his head: "I can't say she was killed. I can only say that she was also alienated in the shadows."

The amulet in the palm of his hand was intact. If Uncle Wu was not lying, it would prove that neither the fat wife nor the eighth wife were evil spirits.

The two did not dare to enter Apartment A directly, which was the center of the abnormal events. They wanted to investigate the peripheral area first.

Going down the stairs, Gao Ming heard footsteps within a few steps. A young man with dyed yellow hair and earrings was wandering in the corridor.

He was dressed in black clothes, his fingertips were dripping with blood, and his head was lowered, as if he was looking for something.

Gao Ming didn't want to cause trouble, but when he passed by the young man, his wrist was grabbed by the young man.

At that moment, Gao Ming wanted to throw off the chains, but the young man made no next move and just looked at Gao Ming up and down.

"What's up?"

"I saw you were wearing a black bracelet, and I thought you were a human being who escaped from the ghost market." The young man chuckled and let go of his hand.

"A human being wearing a black bracelet?" The black bracelet in the young man's mouth probably refers to the black ring of the Investigation Bureau. Apparently the young man has met other investigators.

"They are different from us." The young man's long bangs were blown open, revealing the horrific scars on his forehead and the blood stains remaining at the corners of his mouth: "They violated a taboo."

"Then do we need to take off the black bracelet? To prevent others from misunderstanding?" Gao Ming said casually.

"No need, the aura of those who violate taboos is different from ours." The young man opened his sleeves, and his arms were densely covered with blood-stained black rings: "I just like to collect these things."

The young man walked upstairs, under the bright red lantern, but there was no shadow of him.

"Team leader, do you remember that a young man was killed on the fifth floor of Building A in Surabaya Apartment 20 years ago. He was a member of a small gang. He was hacked to death in the corridor for stealing the boss's belongings." Zhu Miaomiao thought in her heart. Fa Mao: "The deceased was called Guizai. He seems to be a member of the same family as the eighth wife."

"Go to the first floor first."

Gao Ming asked Zhu Miaomiao to remove the black ring. Flesh Fairy was not a game he made, so he had to be more careful than before.

Paper money is scattered on the steps, a brazier is placed at the corner of the corridor, and a faint fragrance floats in the air. It seems that every household in the apartment building will worship the gods to protect their homes.

All the windows in the corridor on the first floor of Building B were boarded up and talismans were posted on them.

People are separated by layers of paper, and ghosts are separated by mountains. But the problem is that there are ghosts inside and outside the building. I don’t know who this thing is guarding against?
The fire flickered, flickering on and off. Gao Ming looked deep into the corridor on the first floor. Someone was burning paper at the entrance of the corridor.

He slowly approached, and when he was still four or five meters away from the opponent, he quickly stopped.

The person burning the paper was an old man. He was as skinny as a stick, his limbs were like four sticks, and his skin was wrinkled and clinging to the bones.

The old man looked like he would fall over if the wind blew, but he was carrying a huge baby boy on his back.

The baby boy had the head of an adult and kept biting the old man's shoulders. If he was slightly dissatisfied, he would punch and kick the old man.

Once the old man wanted to put him down, he would strangle the old man's neck, pierce his fingers into the old man's body, and grab the old man's bones.

"Don't go any further." The door next to Gao Ming was unlocked. When he passed by, the door opened by itself, and a man's voice came from inside the house.

Gao Ming turned around and saw that the room was pitch dark.

He took out his lighter to illuminate, and then he saw clearly that there was a loess tomb in the small rental house, and squatting on the tomb was a rich middle-aged man in plain clothes.

The man's shoes were buried in the loess, and his hands were hidden behind the tombstone.Seeing Gao Ming stop, the middle-aged man continued: "The old man's name is Zhou Ji. He is a hard-working man. He still has to support his son at an old age. His son doesn't even need to work. In order to defraud the relief funds, he will force the old man to pretend. sick."

"This kind of person is simply a parasite." Zhu Miaomiao stared at the old man in the distance. She didn't understand why it was so hard to become a ghost.
"I can't stand it anymore. How about we work together to help him get that baby off?" the middle-aged man suggested: "You two just need to trick Zhou Ji into coming."

"also."

"Please close the door for me first, so as not to make him suspicious." The middle-aged man said casually.

Gao Ming didn't seem to think much and walked directly to the door, but when his hand was about to touch the door panel, he suddenly and quickly retracted it.

Almost at the same time that Gao Ming retracted his hand, arms stretched out from the cracks in the door, but they were in vain.

The face of the wealthy middle-aged man on the loess grave bag changed immediately, and there was no trace of blood or kindness anymore. His body sank into the grave bag, and arms came out from all over the room.

"Snapped!"

The door was blown by a dark wind and slammed shut, and all the arms were locked in the room.

"Are you two here to see the house?"

The sound of insidious testing suddenly sounded. Gao Ming and Zhu Miaomiao turned around and found that a wrinkled old lady had approached them at some point and was standing behind them.

Five skinny fingers held a yellow talisman. The old lady stuck the talisman in the center of the door, and the abnormal noises in the room immediately disappeared.

"The good houses in this building are all locked. If I open the door for you casually, it must be unkind."

After the old lady put on the yellow charm, she coughed a few times. She shook the key chain in her hand and raised her head: "Do you two have a house you like?"

There were only the whites of the old man's eyes, and the wrinkles on her face were squeezed together like dragon scales. She was not tall, but it made Gao Ming feel a lot of pressure, as if in front of him he was not a thin old lady, but a fierce one. beast.

"What's the old man's name?"

"They all call me Goddess." The old lady shook the key and walked towards the other side of the corridor. When she passed the brazier at the door, she glanced at the baby boy on Zhou Ji's back. The baby boy immediately let go of Zhou Ji's neck. I was so frightened that I cried loudly.

"If you cry again, I will send you to the ancestral hall."

The goddess just said a word, and the baby boy immediately closed his mouth and curled up on Zhou Ji's back.

After passing through the corridor, the goddess took out the key and opened the rental house at the far end of the first floor.

This room is close to a public toilet and is one of the most gloomy rooms in the building.

"Grandma, can we enter your room?" Gao Ming was a little nervous. He found that the place where the goddess lived was very special. There were clay sculptures of various ghosts and gods in the house, and the walls were covered with ghost paintings.

"If you two are here to see the house, then wait for me outside; if you two want to find the way here, then enter the house. There are some things that are not convenient to say outside." The goddess rummaged through a large pile of talismans. Looking for something, Gao Ming and Zhu Miaomiao entered the house after thinking for a moment.

The abnormal events in Surabaya Street have gotten out of control. The ghost stories seem to be another world, absurd and strange, and full of uneasiness.

"Grandma, why are the people in this building so weird?" Gao Ming had seen Zhao Xi who turned into a ghost, and Zhao Xi remained as he was after death in the ghost story.

"Truth and fiction are combined with reality, truth is combined with fiction." The goddess bowed three times to a certain ghost and god: "What is normal is not necessarily true, and what is distorted is not necessarily false. Maybe what you see now is them. The way it is.”

After lighting the white wax and offering three incense, the goddess sat on the only chair in the room: "You two will soon change, just like the other people who come in. You will become your truest self." , by that time, if you want to leave, you won’t be able to leave.”
