Like most men who are single and live alone, I don’t like tidying up my room very much.
Therefore, it has become a matter of course that there are some flat, small, tentacled "tenants" in the house who are ready to move around in the dark corners.
I don't care too much, after all, cockroaches don't eat people.
Until one night, I woke up, opened the door in a daze, and stepped out of the bedroom with bare feet...
"Click."
There are some greasy and sticky debris between the soles of the feet and the floor...
Well, I decided to kill them.
I got some medicine online and, following the seller's instructions, sprinkled some in the four corners of the room before nightfall.
Early the next morning, many dead or still convulsing bodies were scattered on the floor.
Sweep them out one by one and occupy less than half of the dustpan.
How come there are so many?
This amount was really beyond my expectation.
It seems that that sentence is indeed correct - if you find a cockroach at home, don't worry, there must be thousands more hiding in the corner. So, I released some more that night, and the results the next day were amazing.
I know. So on the third day...
Things started to come back and forth, and I kind of enjoyed it.
Don't you think this is very much like farming? You sow the "seeds" one day and get the "fruits" the next day. Isn't it quite a bit of fun to harvest?
However……
My harvest became more and more, at first it was a small half of the dustpan, then more than half of the dustpan, and then it filled up the entire dustpan, and finally it became a hill, and even the dustpan could not be filled.
This is not right, I woke up from this inexplicable craze, this is not right.
Why are there more and more cockroaches?
Where do they come from? Where are they hiding?
I stood alone in the middle of the room, and it seemed like something was peering at me from every corner. People were chatting at me from every corner.
But when I bit the bullet and searched every corner, I found nothing.
"It's okay, cockroaches don't eat people."
I comforted myself so much, but I still bought several surveillance cameras and distributed them throughout the room.
I woke up before dawn, or I never really fell asleep. I couldn't wait to turn on the computer and check the surveillance video.
At this moment, I was nervous, excited, and yet hiding fear, as if I was about to unlock some terrifying secret in the dark that exuded fatal attraction.
The video was not very strange at first. There was no movement in the room in the camera. When I couldn't help but fast forward, one crawled out from the corner, followed by the second, and the third...
Insects were like a black wave, penetrating and spreading from the corners of the walls, from the cracks in the seats, from the bottoms of the stools... from every dark corner, flooding the entire room.
It was as if a poisonous snake had wrapped itself around my heart, and my heart trembled.
My lips were a little dry and I was trying to secrete some saliva. I tried hard to resist the urge to throw away the mouse and continue reading.
The wave finally receded slowly, and the camera revealed the room again, and the direction of the wave was...my bedroom?
An excited person stood up and started rummaging around the bedroom frantically.
Under the bed? No.
Behind the nightstand? No.
Under the chair? No.
In the drawer? No.
Where? Where? Where?
I am clueless, like a beast trapped in a cage.
Could it be?
With a sudden pause, I saw a slight gap left on the window...
Could it be that he went out?
Yes! He must have gone out.
I breathed a sigh of relief, collapsed on the chair, and sat there in a daze for a while.
Suddenly, my ear piercing felt itchy, so I took it out.
"But where are we going?" I couldn't help but have some doubts.
The corners of my eyes stung slightly again, so I rubbed them again.
"Whatever! We must move out tomorrow!"
My nose started to itch again, but this time it couldn't stop.
"A sneeze."
With the sneeze, a small, flat thing with tentacles, always ready to move in the darkness, fell on the keyboard.
Ah, I know where they are hidden.
……………………
1404 Rent.
Black resentment filled the entire hall.
A ferocious ghost was suspended in mid-air. Opposite the ghost, Boss Wu and the other ghosts hugged each other and trembled.
The fierce ghost let out a sharp howl, and rushed forward with its body and substantial resentment.
The group of ghosts immediately dispersed, except for one little ghost who was stunned and unable to dodge, and actually squatted on the spot with his head in his hands.
The fierce ghost even opened his mouth and reached his chin to his waist. Judging from the situation, he actually wanted to swallow the kid in one gulp.
Suddenly, a hand stretched out halfway, grabbed Li Gui's neck, pushed him to the ground, and beat him violently.
The fierce ghost who was pinned down was struggling freely. He was suddenly punched, but the ghost only became more and more crazy, without any other emotions.
Are you completely dominated by resentment?
Apart from ghosts, the only one who could catch ghosts with his bare hands was the returning Li Changan. When he saw this, he frowned and was about to draw his sword and cut it into two pieces. But as soon as he touched the hilt of the sword, he felt a stinging pain in his internal organs.
.
His face turned pale, his body swayed a few times, but his hands didn't move at all.
This was the sequelae left by the spider poison. Li Changan thought carefully about it afterwards and realized that what saved him must have been the wine he drank at the Yuheng Mountain Banquet.
At that time, the spider venom had actually penetrated into his internal organs, but it also stimulated the vitality contained in the wine, so the wine and the poison neutralized each other. The final result was actually that Li Changan's internal organs were renovated, but
The effectiveness is also exhausted and the curative effect cannot be consolidated.
Therefore, Li Changan's internal organs are still very young and fragile at the moment. Once he uses strong force or activates his magic power, it will easily damage his internal organs.
After all the matters in Qixian were settled, Li Changan returned to the modern world. He wanted to take a good rest and recuperate, but unexpectedly, he encountered something like this as soon as he came back.
Before I had time to take off my entire outfit, I had to take action.
Since he couldn't draw the sword, he didn't bother to kill again.
He asked Boss Wu to find a drink bottle, picked up Li Gui, crumpled him into a small ball, stuffed him into the bottle, tightened the bottle cap, and affixed a yellow talisman.
Putting it on the table, I could only see the thick black smoke inside the bottle rolling and swirling, with a vaguely ferocious face appearing, and the bottle body was vibrating endlessly.
"Snapped."
So Li Changan posted another one, and the evil ghost in this bottle finally calmed down and turned into a bottle of black "ink".
"I don't know where this ghost came from? Where does he have such great resentment?"
This is not to say that this ghost is powerful, but that in this environment, ghosts that remain in the world can easily be driven away by the external environment.
Boss Wu is a bunch of cowards. Even though they are weak and cowardly now, they were all fierce ghosts at the beginning. Otherwise, they would not have persisted until they entered 1404 to rent a house. However, before joining, their souls were almost not worn away, and they had attached souls.
Physical resentment is naturally the first to be polished away.
Therefore, all of them look peaceful, and some of them are so old that no one even knows their own names.
Li Changan was about to speak and teach these cowards a lesson.
Suddenly, the long-lost phone rang.
Li Changan took a look and saw a number he didn't recognize.
