CH 159

This time Jiang Luo didn't need to remind him, and Lu Youyi didn't make any more noise.

They stood in front of the door for an unknown length of time, until after their legs were numb and their feet were cold and stiff from soaking in the sewage, the two men slowly retreated to the bedside.

When they finally sat down on the soft mattress, the two men sighed with relief in unison.

Lu Youyi is a breath of relaxation, while Jiang Luo is a breath of relief.

In the darkness, the dark-haired youth's eyes grew brighter.

He reached up to his chest and felt the beating of his heart under him. "Pounding, pounding," each one an excited and powerful beat.

It's so exciting.

Without the threat of death, this succession of life-and-death crises simply climaxes Jiang Luo's emotions and climbs to their highest peak. He covers the corners of his uncontrollably curled mouth in the darkness, his shoulders trembling gently.

Is this what Chi You call a wild goose chase?

It is indeed crazy, with a very personal touch of Chi You.

I have to say, he's so good at pitching in. Even though Jiang Luo wanted to punch him in the face, he was fully engaged in the dream.

Jiang Luo's face turns a thin shade of red, then calms down again. He takes out his mobile phone and chats with Lu Youyi online.

[Jiang Luo: Don't make a sound, there might be something else out there].

Lu Youyi: This dream is too scary, my heart is beating in my throat!

[Lu Youyi: But Jiang Luo, why does that ghost still call you his wife?

Jiang Luo: I don't know, the ghost is blind, right? Lu Youyi, why are you in the dream together?

Lu Youyi is also unaware of why they are in the dream together.

With a result like that, someone must have done something. But before the coma, they were all in Lu Youyi's flat, the door to which was locked, so that no one from the outside could have intruded and only someone from the inside had the chance to do something to them.

But who will do the tampering?

The whole flat is filled with people Lu Youyi trusts.

The answer is already in front of Lu Youyi, but Lu Youyi doesn't want to believe it.

He looked glum and reluctantly shook his head at Jiang Luo.

Deadbeat ...... is that you.

Jiang Luo didn't ask any more questions, [Let's go and find Sai Liaoer and the others when it's light].

Bai Yefeng, who had wandered down from the third floor, returned to the first floor, where a dark figure stood in front of the door of 203, which asked him, "Gone?"

Bai Yefeng chagrined, "You're scaring him."

"Did I scare him?" The dark figure took a step forward and the light from the corridor swept over him, revealing a handsome face, "Aren't you the one who scared him?"

Bai Yefeng also came into the light, and he and Qin Fan looked at each other for a moment before suddenly bending over and laughing together, covering their stomachs.

Their movements were identical, even so bizarre that their laughter overlapped, and to the uninformed ear, one might have thought it was the laughter of one person.

The suppressed laughter gradually stopped and the two men put away their laughter in unison.

Bai Yefeng leaned against the wall, the foolishness of his face gone, his lips curled up, the shadowy patches of colour resting on the bridge of his nose, a shadowy aura looming.

"He's intimidated by us," he trailed off as the corners of his mouth picked up nastily, "and a look like that can be quite an accomplishment."

*

The human subconscious feels safer during the day than during the night.

As soon as it was light, Jiang Luo was in the mood to wait for the clock to tick down to half past seven.

As soon as 7.30 arrives, Jiang Luo hears the sound of a door closing from downstairs.

Bai Yefeng went to work.

After waiting patiently for another half hour, Jiang Luo and Lu Youyi carefully made their way to the first floor.

Jiang Luo opened the door to 203, which was indeed empty. He told Lu Youyi to wait at the door and went in alone to rummage through the cupboards and found a lot of cash. In addition to the cash, he found a black and gold card under Bai Yefeng's pillow.

The card is branded with five words "Shunshin Gym".

This is a gym card.

Jiang Luo took the card with him first, whether it was useful or not. When he saw nothing else useful, he walked out of the door and followed Lu Youyi out of the Happy Inn.

The owner of the Little Inn of Happiness was still sitting at the front desk on the ground floor, and when he saw the two of them leave, his eyes were sinister, as if he could not wait to devour them down to their bellies, and he stared at them with such a deadly gaze that he could have burned two big holes in their backs.

Lu Youyi shuddered and left the area with quick steps close to Jiang Luo.

The world outside the hotel is no different from real life. But the sparsely populated streets are splattered with unidentified blood in the corners. The doors of some of the houses are wide open, and the emptiness from the doorway to the foyer shows that these homes have fallen on hard times, that the houses are empty and openly deserted, but the people who come and go don't see anything wrong with it.

The more I watched, the more I was frightened and thoughtful. Jiang Luo and Lu Youyi took a taxi from the roadside and watched the driver for several minutes to make sure he was human before the two of them got into the car.

The driver asked, "Which way?"

Jiang Luo quoted the address of Sai Liaoer.

At this point in time, Sai Liaoer was the safest charm, and the group had decided, on Jiang Luo's advice, to meet up with Sai Liaoer at his place this morning.

The master driver led them towards their destination, glanced at them in the rear view mirror and said, "You're not from around here, are you?"

Jiang Luo and Lu Youyi look at each other in silence.

"Just look at you walking out of the little happy hotel," the driver didn't care, picking up his own words, "the locals wouldn't dare stay in this little hotel."

Jiang Luo finally opened his mouth and asked, "What's wrong with this little hotel?"

The driver looked at them twice more and suddenly smiled eerily, "This hotel, but several people have died, only outsiders who are not afraid of death dare to stay here."

Underneath the rear-view mirror hung a blood-red Haruhi doll without five features. Lu Youyi pointed at the doll and asked in a small voice, "What is this?"

The driver touched the Haruhi doll cherishingly, "This is a life-saving talisman I found from the Haunted Mansion building."

A ghost building?

Jiang Luo tried to ask further questions, but the driver was so engrossed in driving that he stopped talking to them.

An hour later, they arrived at Sai Liaoer's place, the Splendid Hotel.

The Splendid Hotel is located in the city centre and people come and go in the hotel, the popularity of which washes away the eeriness of the atmosphere.

Sai Liaoer was waiting for them downstairs and all but Jiang Luo and Lu Youyi had already arrived.

Sai Liaoer took them back to the room, where the group poured out their grievances and began to wonder what the dream meant.

"I tried it yesterday when I woke up, I could still feel the pain when I pinched myself and the five senses were so real that I'm afraid I wouldn't have noticed it was fake if I hadn't been able to recognise clearly that it was a dream, I pinched myself several times but found I couldn't wake up."

"And we can't even perform what we've learned yet."

Zhuo Zhongqiu said, "I practiced dual cultivation of the soul and body, but it turned out to be no use at all, and I could only hide when I encountered ghosts, I couldn't deal with them at all."

Ye Xun suddenly said, "Don't you guys think it's weird that we're in a dream together?"

The other trolls all stopped, and they looked at Ye Xun in silence.

The look, clearly noticed, but not spoken of.

Wen Renlian spoke lightly: "To be blunt, we all stayed in Lu Youyi's flat last night. All of us are here at the moment, except for the dead ghost. It was he who did this to us and put us into the same dream."

Lu Youyi was silent for a moment, "...... Why would he do that?"

For the first time, he was betrayed by someone, or a brother he trusted so much. Lu Youyi lowered his head and clasped his fingernails, his nose sore, "We trusted him so much and it all turned out to be a lie? It's all my ...... fault if I hadn't brought him back to the flat, this wouldn't have happened."

With that, he snapped and wiped his eyes with his sleeve and pulled himself together, his face full of anger instead of sadness and grief, "When I get out, I'll ask why he betrayed us, deadbeat!"

Jiang Luo tapped him on the shoulder and added fuel to the fire, " Lu Youyi, did you know that dead ghosts have another name?"

Lu Youyi's face lingered with fire and he said hesitantly, "Jiaojiao?"

"......" Jiang Luo said, "I'm talking about the name he had before he lost his memory."

Lu Youyi shook his head, "I don't know."

"His name is Teng Bi," Jiang Luo said quietly, "and he has regained his memory after our successful mission in the entertainment industry a few months ago. I heard him call himself 'Teng Bi' with my own ears, but he still stayed with us for some reason pretending that he hadn't regained his memory, and I didn't tell you about it in order to see what he wanted to do, and I'm sorry."

Lu Youyi looked at him in shock.

Ye Xun silently raises his hand.

Lu Youyi turned his head again to look at him incredulously.

Ye Xun was looking at him with some guilt, " Jiang Luo told me about it, not telling you the truth was the result of a discussion between the two of us. Because you show it on your face when you think of something, and you can also be easily talked out of it, of course, I'm not saying you're stupid, but you're really not very smart either ......"

"If I tell you this secret, with your character, it will definitely be noticed by the dead ghost in less than a day," Ye Xun was a little weak from his look and hid behind Kuang Zheng, because of the nervousness in his heart, the speed of his speech was getting faster and faster, "In order not to be discovered by the dead ghost, we together I'm sorry for hiding it from you ......."

Lu Youyi was dumbfounded for a moment before wiping his face and laughing, "It's okay, it's okay, didn't you already know that the dead ghost had regained his memory? Hahahaha it's okay it's okay, it's none of your business."

His smile gradually became twisted, his fists clenched, his eyes on fire, "It's all because of the dead ghost ...... No, his name is pain paralysis, right? Pain you paralyze pain paralyze, when I go back I will beat him to death!"

"And pretending to be a dead ghost around me to trick me into eating and living," Lu Youyi gritted his teeth, the more he thought about it, the angrier he became, "I'm going to go back and ask him if he felt I was retarded when he tricked me!"

Lu Youyi in this state is not to be messed with, so Jiang Luo wisely sidestepped the subject and asked Ge Zhu instead: " Ge Zhu, do you know of a temple called 'White Heron Temple'? "

" White Heron Temple?" Ge Zhu was visibly stunned, then asked curiously in return, "Where did you get that name?"

Jiang Luo was delighted to see that he knew, "Don't ask me where I know, but where is this temple now? How come I've never heard of it?"

Ge Zhu said, "White Heron Temple is the temple I stayed at before I left Buddhism."

Jiang Luo was stunned, "Wasn't the temple you used to stay at called 'Jokhang Temple'?"

The Jokhang Temple is one of the Six Great Houses, the representatives of the Buddhist sect. The disciples of the temple were called "Ge", so they were called "Buddhist Ge" by others.

"It's called Jokhang Temple now," Ge Zhu said patiently, "I grew up in the Buddhist community and I know many things that outsiders don't know. Although Jokhang Temple is now called Jokhang Temple, two hundred years ago it was once called 'White Heron Temple'."
