This Damned Thirst for Survival-Chapter 3

Among the memories of the original body, the original body had never seen such a black mist.

Jiang Luo kept this matter in his mind for the time being, and followed the boss to the Sleeping Beauty themed room.

This is a triple room with three large beds placed in the middle of the room, and the decoration style is full of girly dreamy flavor. There is a pot of green plants in the corner of the wall, and the window opens on the west side, just to avoid the window brake.

The boss stood by the door and looked into the room with a fearful expression, as if some monster in the room would devour him, "A month ago, the three missing guests booked this room. They were three girls. They have a good relationship and are still in school. Before the surveillance failed, the camera caught them returning to the room to rest, but no one came out the next day. When we opened the door, they disappeared."

The boss shook twice, and the horror in his eyes revealed, "The two fellow boys who live next door to them can testify that they have not been out at night, and they greeted the two boys of good night before going to bed. After we found out that they were gone, we immediately called the police. We searched the entire hotel, but we didn't find any trace of them."

The three of them listened quietly, and Ye Xun asked, "Did you find anything in the room?"

"No," The boss took a puff from a cigarette and calmed down slowly, "Only our cleaning aunt found strands of their hair on the bed, proving that they had slept in it."

In addition, the three girls seemed to have never been here before.

When the boss talked about this, his whole body was hairy and covered with lice-like discomfort, "Since a year ago, our hotel's business has suddenly gone downhill. There have been fewer customers and more bad reviews. The guests who have stayed here will always have some minor physical problems, which are not serious, but too unusual. Not only that, there are also guests who heard the sound of hitting a ball from the corridor at midnight. Who do you think is going to play a ball without going to bed in the middle of the night? Before, some guests were curious, and they didn't dare to open the door at midnight, so they lay down under the crack of the door and looked out. They saw a man's head bouncing on the ground outside the door!"

The boss's face turned pale, "I, I don't know if what the guests saw is real or not, but I haven't seen it..."

After hearing this, Ye Xun took the initiative in checking the rooms. Getting started first to look at the kitchen and toilet. As a half amateur, Jiang Luo decisively followed behind Ye Xun. After they looked everywhere, Jiang Luo asked curiously, "Did you find anything?"

Lu Youyi shook his head, "I didn't see anything. Ye Xun, how about you."

Ye Xun thought about it and said faintly, "Let's look again at midnight."

Lu Youyi stretched out his finger to calculate for a moment. His face suddenly became ugly. He lowered his voice and said, "The three missing girls are very unlucky."

In fact, Lu Youyi calculated that the divinatory diagram was "fierce", and the three girls were most likely to have died.

Both Jiang Luo and Ye Xun fell silent.

The boss didn't hear Lu Youyi's words clearly. When he heard Ye Xun say that they would come back at midnight, he hurriedly said, "Let me take you to a meal first. Your room had been arranged. When you finish your meal, I will take you there to rest."

Ye Xun took the lead and walked out, "A meal is fine, but the room is not needed. Boss, we will reside here tonight."

The boss looked at him admiringly. He was worthy of being a big shot who had lived for fifty-eight years and swallowed countless ghosts. He responded with a full mouth: "Okay, okay, I'll ask the aunt to change the bed sheet and quilt for you."

Lu Youyi looked very rich at first glance, and Ye Xun didn't look bad. However, when they ate, they looked like refugees who had fled. Gobbling in their mouths, and their hands were completely occupied. Jiang Luo couldn't help but to eat an extra bowl of rice as he watched them, and lay down on his chair with his body propped up.

He had finished eating, and the other two people hadn't eaten enough. Lu Youyi glanced at him in disgust, "Jiang Luo, why did you eat this much?"

Jiang Luo stuck up three fingers, "Three bowls."

Ye Xun raised his head from his rice bowl, "Are you full?"

Jiang Luo nodded.

Ye Xun handed him the rabbit doll in his arms, "Help me hold Xiaofen for a while."

The pink rabbit looks like the favorite type of an ordinary three year old child, and it is half the size of an adult. Jiang Luo took the doll and hugged it in his arms, remembering what he had said to fool the boss. He joked, "Is there anything I need to pay attention to?"

"Huh?" Ye Xun looked up as if thinking of something, "You can't feed Xiaofen food."

How could the doll eat something? Jiang Luo nodded seriously, grabbed the paw of the doll rabbit and waved at Ye Xun, "Got it."

After a moment, the grandmother came over to eat with her grandson in her arms. Jiang Luo looked over in his peripheral vision. The child was sitting on the table and eating eggs with a big mouthful. He looked fierce when eating and the white egg was sticking to his face.

Jiang Luo's eyes were down, and he still saw a cloud of black mist on the child's white fat arm.

The black mist didn't have a good feeling for Jiang Luo. He walked over curiously holding the doll and sat next to the child.

The grandmother was taking care of her grandson for the meal, her kind-hearted face was cheerful, and she said slowly, "Eat more, eat more."

The grandson looked like Lu Youyi and Ye Xun when he gobbled up. However, Lu Youyi and Ye Xun are adults. Children have thin throats. Is there no problem when eating like this?

The child stretched out his hand to take the peeled egg in his grandma's hand, and the flesh on his face twitched. Jiang Luo inappropriately remembered the pigs waiting to be slaughtered in the pig farm.

He turned his head sideways and talked to the grandmother, "Grandma, are you having lunch this time?"

The grandmother reacted for a while before she said indifferently, "Lunch, I have eaten it! My grandson is hungry, so he will eat some more."

Oh, a light afternoon meal.

The child had eaten enough and slid off the chair, "Grandma, I'll play for a while!"

The grandmother repeatedly agreed, and watched her grandson playing with the sand. There's a smile on her face. Her face was full of happiness and relief, as if she was satisfied just by looking at the child like this.

Jiang Luo said casually, "Grandma, isn't it not good for a child to eat too many eggs?"

The grandmother waved her hand, "It's okay, he loves to eat. You see how nice he is... he is white and chubby."

Jiang Luo chatted about the family matters in a usual tone, "How's the child's grades?"

"Grades?" The grandmother was confused for a moment, then smiled again, "It's okay, it's okay. Grades are not important. Those who are white and chubby are the most important. It is a blessing to be able to eat."

Jiang Luo smiled, "You are so open-minded."

After a while, the grandmother tremblingly got up and went to the kitchen to get food, muttering to herself as she walked, "I have to prepare something for him, he will be hungry again in a while..."

After the grandmother left, only Jiang Luo and the fat grandson were left around.

Jiang Luo took out a piece of candy from his pocket and put it in his mouth. The sweetness stuck to his mouth. He bit the piece of candy with a "thump", and the child playing with the sand was attracted by the sound of the candy in his mouth. He eagerly ran to Jiang Luo, sucking on his saliva greedily.

Jiang Luo fished out another piece of candy and shook it in front of the child, "Little friend, do you want some candy?"

The child nodded vigorously.

Jiang Luo narrowed his eyes with a smile, and coaxed softly, "If you want to eat, you have to agree to your gege's request."

Child: "Okay~"

Jiang Luo poured a large glass full of water for the child, looking like a big bad wolf in a grandmother' clothes, "You finish drinking this glass of water, and then promise your gege not to go to the toilet before going to bed at night, okay?"

The child bit his finger embarrassedly, "It's hard to hold back the urine."

Jiang Luo took out two more pieces of candy.

The child's eyes lit up, he held the glass of water and drank it with a gulp. His belly was visible to the naked eye, and he also burped.

Jiang Luo gave him the candies. He returned to Lu Youyi in a good mood and sat down beside him. He casually asked, "Is the urine of a child able to ward off evil spirits?"

Lu Youyi said, "Yes, not only can it ward off evil spirits, but it can also be used as medicine, and used in boiling eggs. Have you ever eaten virgin boy eggs?"

Jiang Luo gained new knowledge.

After eating, the three of them returned to the Sleeping Beauty's room. It was still early in the night. Lu Youyi turned on the TV to watch idol dramas. Jiang Luo and Ye Xun each returned to their rooms to rest.

Jiang Luo has finally had the time to sort out the memories of the original body.

He went through the memory of the original body killing Chi You, and the corner of his mouth raised.

Chi You's death is indeed suspicious.

This is a good thing. As long as there are doubts, Jiang Luo can follow the trail and find someone who will take the blame for himself. Of course, if there is really no doubt, as the saying goes, if there is no road, create the road, and if there is no opportunity, create the opportunity.

If there is no suspicion, then create suspicion.

In his memory, Chi You was born with a heavenly spiritual body. The strength of his talent has never been seen in the whole metaphysical world. Chi You is the last heir of the direct line of the Chi family, and has become the ruler of the Chi family at a young age. Such a life looks like an open existence in the eyes of others. With such innate skill, it can overwhelm many people who are hardworking.

The original body was jealous of Chi You's talent, he's so jealous that his eyes were about to bleed.

It would be great if his talent could be given to me——of course the original body thought about it before, but he only dared to think about it in his mind.

Originally, even if the original body was jealous of Chi You, he could still be calm on the surface. But a week before Chi You died, the original owner accidentally saw a forbidden technique on the Internet.

Forbidden technique is an evil method that can take the soul of others and transfer them into your own body. Without knowing whether it is real or not, the original body had become more and more emotionally affected by seeing it. In the end, he did not hold back the temptation and decided to deprive Chi You of his soul. He completed it a little bit correctly according to the forbidden technique, but Chi You died directly in the forbidden technique——In addition, after his death, his soul was split by five parts and shattered to pieces.

The original owner didn't get anything, but instead provoked an evi.

The original owner was indeed the murderer who killed Chi You, but it was more like a knife in the hand of the man behind him. The murderer used the knife to kill. Isn't the murderer holding the knife who was behind the murder?

The knife is guilty, but what if the knife finds the murderer for the victim, can it be repaid?

Jiang Luo touched his face and thought to himself. If I were Chi You, I would definitely be looking for the murderer behind the knife. That's the real enemy.

The sky is getting darker and the sun is setting.

Jiang Luo stopped thinking about it, got out of bed and went out. After Lu Youyi looked up at him, he said with a complicated expression: "Jiang Luo, no wonder Chi You has a deep affection for you."

The young man who had just gotten out of bed had messy black hair, and there were two slight blushes on his beautiful face. The color of his lips was congested because of dryness. His lips were red and his teeth were white. His complexion was compelling. With the existence of him alone, there is a sense of a hundred flowers blooming and crowding him.

Pretty.

He belongs to the group of beautiful men.

Even though Jiang Luo's character is so bad and stupid, this face alone does have the capital to make Chi You fall in love with him.

Jiang Luo smoothed his hair. He was used to hearing such compliments. He smiled casually and said, "Are we going to start catching ghosts now?"

Ye Xun's action did not stop, "I am preparing something."

A long rectangular table was placed against the north wall, and a large square mirror hung in the middle of the wall. On the brown table, there was a bowl of white rice and some unlit incense.

Seeing this kind of scene for the first time, Jiang Luo was full of interest. He asked the things one by one, and Ye Xun answered them patiently. After all the preparations were made, Ye Xun looked up at the clock and said, "Let's wait for the time."

It was from eleven o'clock in the middle of the night to one o'clock in the morning. At this time, the yin energy was the strongest. Jiang Luo nodded and asked, "Why hang a mirror in the middle?"

"The mirror is where yin energy gathers. It can exorcise evil spirits and appear in its form," Ye Xun said, "If there is really something evil here, there will be yin energy overflowing in the mirror, blowing the smoke from the incense, and taking us to the place where the yin energy gathers."

Jiang Luo had a hundred thousand questions of why in his mind: "Why don't you use a compass?"

Ye Xun took the compass from the side and showed it to him. He saw that the magnetic needle in the inner disk of the compass was swaying everywhere, unable to point out a clear direction. Ye Xun said, "The compass is disturbed by the magnetic field here, so it can't be used around the hotel."

Jiang Luo came to a sudden realization.

The waiting time is fast, and in the blink of an eye, it is almost eleven o'clock in the night.

There are few lights in the North Third Ring Road at night. The darkness outside the window was thick and dense, like an ink splashed on the window. The pale light hit the room, and Lu Youyi changed his sitting posture. He suddenly got up and said, "I'm going to the toilet. Is anyone with me?"

Ye Xun got up with his doll in his arms, "I'll go too."

Jiang Luo is well versed in the routines of horror movies and in no way he'll be alone, "Let's go together, together."

The three big boys crowded together to line up to go to the toilet. Lu Youyi couldn't hold back anymore. He rushed into the toilet and closed the door. After half a minute, he suddenly screamed, "Fuck!"

Jiang Luo and Ye Xun looked at each other, "Lu Youyi?"

As soon as Lu You opened the door, he said in full shock, "Fuck, what do you think this is?"

When the two walked over and took a look, they saw that there was a bag of things wrapped in a white plastic bag soaked in the toilet tank, which looked like money at first glance.

Lu Youyi took out the thing and put it on the ground to open it. It's not filled with Chinese Yuans, but rather ming bi1.

Jiang Luo's goose bumps are about to get up, "What's the point of putting ming bi in the toilet?"

"It was definitely not put by the store," Lu Youyi ran to wash his hands to remove his bad luck. He couldn't help but say, "Putting the ming bi in the toilet... It's absolutely amazing. The toilet is a place where filth is hidden. The moisture and the yin energy of the toilet itself are serious. The toilet is even filthier. By putting ming bi in the toilet, you either want to drain your own bad fortune, or you want to drain the wealth of others."

"Hotel 129 has been going downhill since it started a year ago. Is it related to this?" Jiang Luo touched his chin and said.

"Most likely," Lu Youyi immediately agreed with what he said, "Tomorrow we will go to the toilet in other rooms to see if there are any ming bi."

He was in panic, and as soon as Lu Youyi washed his hands, he retreated with Jiang Luo. Lu Youyi was a little scared, and kept talking to Jiang Luo: "What do you think the evil things here will be?"

Jiang Luo said, "You don't even know how I would know."

Lu Youyi choked for a moment, and muttered, "It's not that I don't have a clear idea in my mind?"

Jiang Luo's heart thumped, and he persuaded him patiently: "Lu Youyi, I am not as good as you, and Ye Xun is not as big as you. Among the three of us, you're the one who can fight the most. The reason why I came out with you to take on the task is because you are here. Your strength in my mind is more than that. If you don't even have the confidence, what evil things will we clean up?"

Lu Youyi has never been praised like this before. He is a little shy, "Really, really? Am I really that good?"

"Of course!" Jiang Luo nodded decisively, "You have to believe in yourself. Don't be afraid of ghosts. Just pick up the chap and go. No matter how evil the things here are, they are certainly not as powerful as you."

Lu Youyi was very touched. He never thought that Jiang Luo would trust him so much. The sense of responsibility rose from the bottom of his heart. Lu Youyi clenched his fists and said, "Okay, I will protect you!"

Jiang Luo gladly sent him a round of applause. Just as Ye Xun walked out of the toilet, Jiang Luo hastily drew himself into the toilet.

He locked it cleanly, hummed contentedly and walked to the mirror to wash his hands.

The music is lively and the tune is cute.

Jiang Luo bent over and washed his face to wake up. When he raised his head, the young man in the mirror raised his red phoenix eyes slightly. Crystal clear drops of water were hanging from his long eyelashes. The black hair in front of his forehead fell on his temples.

His eyes were like lacquer, and there was a smile on his lips. His classical charm is mixed with modern beauty, looking around, with piercing eyes and was full of vitality, it was brilliant.

But the face of this beautiful young man suddenly became unsightly, a deep palm print suddenly appeared on his slender neck.

The five-finger marks were hideous and weird. The blood on Jiang Luo's neck was controlled between these five fingers.

Jiang Luo's breathing became rapid and difficult. He looked in the mirror, which reflected him and the mist that suddenly appeared behind him.

The yin energy gathered like an iron brand on his big palm, it was so hard that Jiang Luo was about to suffocate.

The extremely dense air blew past his ears, and the mist slowly tightened his palms. The person chuckled twice and asked with great interest: "When did I... have a deep affection for you?"
