This damned old man knows what we two brothers do, specifically dealing with this kind of evil spirit, so he didn't dare to hide anything from us.
However, since the old man just died not too long ago, he didn't have many matters to settle, and we don't know much either.
This old man said that after he was killed, his soul was taken away by Eunuch Zhang and brought down there. Eldest Martial Brother and I knew that this so-called place was not some underworld, but some tomb or some other hidden place.
There were at least thirty people of all ages, but the oldest were still the two eunuchs Zhang and Liu Gonggong, but Zhang Gonggong had already been devoured by Gui Sha. The one with red eyes was Eunuch Liu, everyone was afraid of them, and if anyone dared to disobey the order, they would be devoured by the two eunuchs.
This old man was also brought out by those two father-in-law's, the first day he came out to harm someone ran into us, all we can say is that he was unlucky.
Fortunately, we went there in time. Otherwise, this old man would have been able to kill even more people. Otherwise, he might not have been reborn as a human in his next life.
All in all, we got so much information from this old man, no more and no more. Since we really couldn't get anything out of him, our eldest senior brother gave him a round of transcendence and re-entered the Six Paths of Reincarnation.
After doing all of this, Eldest Martial Brother and I were also tired. After discussing what we should do tomorrow morning, we laid on our beds until we were drowsy and fell asleep.
The next day at dawn, eldest senior brother woke me up. The two of us washed up, then woke Zhang Xiaofei up in the room next door. After knocking on the door for a long while, the kid finally opened it.
When he found out that we were going to the abandoned construction site today, he was so scared that his whole body started trembling.
However, when Eldest Senior Brother said that he wanted to talk to Yang Tao on the phone and someone else came to help us, Zhang Xiaofei rejected us anyway, saying that Chairman Yang had already instructed him to cooperate fully with us as long as there was anything we needed. Chairman Yang is currently discussing a big business deal, and does not have the energy to take care of things here, so do not let us call and disturb him.
Actually, we all understood what Zhang Xiaofei meant. He was afraid that Yang Tao would blame him for his incompetence and affect his future.
Since Zhang Xiaofei doesn't want to go back to the construction site, we didn't need to do it for him. We asked him to hire a few workers at the labor market to help us dig out the foundation.
We waited for Zhang Xiaofei to finish washing up before we went downstairs. Zhang Xiaofei drove me to the labor market. After spending 1200 yuan to hire four strong young men, we once again arrived at the entrance to the construction site we came to last night.
Zhang Xiaofei was so scared last night that he refused to come in with us even if he was dead meat. He only said that he would wait at the door and give him a call if anything happened.
We agreed and took the four men into the construction site.
When he came here last night, it was pitch black, and only a large blurry shadow could be seen. Looking at the place today, this place was even more dilapidated. The building had been razed to the ground, and broken bricks and tiles covered the ground.
We were all familiar with the road and came to a spot near the foundation. Halfway there, we saw some bloodstains left behind by the two unlucky thieves from last night.
After arriving at the foundation, the few of us climbed down the ladder and found the blood-soaked area. This place was very eye-catching, we would be able to find it with just a glance.
Without saying anything further, the Eldest Senior Brother commanded those few brawny men to dig.
It was around nine in the morning when the construction started. The four men used their hands and legs to dig for three hours and only managed to dig a pit with a radius of three meters, which was about three meters deep.
At first, it was just hard red soil. However, after digging down two meters, the soil became moist and a few of the strong men's pants were dyed red by the bloody mud.
At this moment, two people were digging the red soil below. One of them was standing on the ladder and passing the dirt upwards. The other was piling the mud together.
At the beginning, these migrant workers did not think much of it. However, when they saw that blood was seeping out from the ground, they could not help but start panicking.
One of them, a man in his thirties, said to his eldest senior brother, "I said boss..." Why is it so bloody down there, there's no such thing as evil, right? "
"Don't worry, there won't be any problems. Do your job well. After you're done, each of you will get one hundred yuan each." The Eldest Senior Brother said perfunctorily.
This was a huge task for them. Initially, they had been given a price of 300 yuan a day, but now, their Eldest Brother had given them another 100 yuan. Even though they had worked hard for three days, they still could not earn that much money.
At first, it was just blood mixed with mud, but after digging down for about half a meter, it was all bloody soup. The movements of the several brothers who were working in the village also became slower and slower, while the eldest senior brother and I continued to stay on top of the mud. There was a small hill of red mud beside us, emitting a strong bloody smell.
My eyes were quite sharp and I kept watching the situation below. As I dug, I suddenly felt that something was amiss. Under the feet of the two migrant workers, a long string of bloody blisters suddenly appeared.
A bad premonition struck me. I immediately stood up and told the brothers who were digging, "Stop digging, hurry up and come up!"
The migrant workers were stunned for a moment before they all looked at me. I immediately stressed, "All of you, climb up. There's danger below!"
As soon as he said that, the migrant worker on the ladder climbed up quickly, followed by the second one. When the second one started climbing up, more bubbles of blood started to appear underneath.
