I saw that Hu Zongren agreed, so I was embarrassed to say anything more. After all, according to the rules, irrelevant people should not be together in this situation, for fear of danger. So I turned to thank
The store manager said, please take care of everyone. No one can walk out of this door until the matter is resolved. After saying that, I took Xiaotian and Hu Zongren upstairs.
This is my first time going upstairs. To be precise, I have never even patronized this restaurant before. The second floor is very similar to what I imagined other restaurants to look like. On the way upstairs, I saw a side of the restaurant that had fallen to the ground.
The bronze mirror must have been hung up by the Taoist priest before, but the old woman dropped it when she fled just now. I carefully straightened the bronze mirror and then leaned it against the corner facing the direction of going downstairs on the second floor.
, and then I drew a mark on the bronze mirror. Although Hu Zongren felt that he could not use force this time, no one could guarantee that the old woman would be obedient and follow us, so at least I had to ensure that she could not follow our instructions.
Escape to the first floor again from the second floor.
I always hold a compass in my hand, and the movement on the second floor is obviously much stronger than that on the first floor. To be precise, it is present in almost the entire environment. It seems that the original sealing of the second floor gave this old woman relatively free space to move.
At this moment, I also saw the talisman hanging above the bathroom entrance. I carefully identified the content of the talisman. It was the Taoist Five Thunder Talisman, but it was tangible and unintentional. If this Taoist priest wants to continue to defraud money in the future, I am afraid he will have to practice hard.
Words are good. After going upstairs, facing the stairwell, there is a wall. There are many paintings on the wall, such as the corporate culture of this restaurant. On the right hand side is the handrail on the second floor. Below the handrail is
It was the place where Oda saw the old lady hanging down during the night shift. I put the compass up and took a look. The reaction here was a notch higher than that of the surroundings.
On my left hand side are rows of standard restaurant seats. At the corner at the end is the children's play area. Between where I am standing and the play area is the bathroom. I asked Hu Zongren to protect Xiaotian at the bathroom door.
Waiting for me, I went inside to take a look, because according to what the store manager Xie said, the old woman ran out of the bathroom at that time, so I should have found some traces in the toilet. From these traces, luck
If possible, we can analyze the reason why she stayed here based on the location where she stayed for a long time. Although it is very slim, it is still worth a try. So I entered the toilet with a compass without any precautions.
Inside.
The toilets are divided into men and women. Personally, I am actually quite repelled by this place. Not because the toilets are very smelly, but because I have almost met several powerful guys, all in the toilets.
Although most of them like to be clean, they all also like a relatively humid environment. Because humid places are more likely to accumulate Yin energy than other places. It is haunted in such a place with a heavy Yin energy.
If so, their power would be stronger than in other places, so after I entered the toilet, I took every step very carefully.
As a matter of habit, I entered the men's restroom first. The men's restroom was very small, with only one cubicle and two urinals. It was a bit smelly, but it was still very quiet in this area. I didn't find any signs of movement. It looked like this
The old lady still knew the difference between men and women. So after I exited the door, the compass started to rotate, and the amplitude was similar to what I noticed outside, indicating that she had passed by the washing area before, but she did not stay here for a long time. I believe
I opened the door of the women's restroom and walked in carefully. As soon as I entered, a strong reaction appeared. Without anything to defend myself, I continued to move forward. I really couldn't guarantee my own safety, so I
Hu Zongren said, there is something in the women's toilet, but I am not sure if it is here, but the reaction is very strong.
Hu Zongren answered me and said, "Then you exit first. The three of us will go together and search in one place. After we have found one, we will eliminate each one. If there is no one outside, we will go to the toilet together later. Hu Zongren is a good idea.
It was just what I wanted, so I came out and stood with them. At this time, Xiaotian suddenly asked me, brother, will you do anything excessive to that old lady? I told her, as long as she doesn't take the initiative
If you hurt us, then we won't. After saying that, I pinched my middle finger with my thumb. There was the thunder talisman Fu Qiang left on it, as well as the Wuzijue that Granny Huang put on me. Everything counts.
It can make ghosts run around, but it is more powerful, so I rarely use it, and I don’t know if it’s because I’m lucky or something, but every time I encounter a ghost that seems absurd and bizarre, I always end up using it.
If you can find the root cause in a roundabout way, it will only waste a little time. This thunder talisman is not specially used for fighting. Use it as little as possible.
The three of us got together and walked slowly towards the children's area at the end. That place was one of the most likely places I thought it would appear. Unfortunately, when we went around, we didn't see anything. I used my compass.
After checking, the compass just told me that this place had been occupied by the old lady's ghost for a long time, but she was not here at the moment, or she had deliberately hidden it for us to not find. Continuing around the second floor, we almost found it.
I searched all possible corners, and I even looked at the ceiling from time to time. There was decoration on the ceiling, wondering if it might be hidden in it, but I still didn't find it.
After some exclusions, we determined that the old lady’s ghost was only in the women’s bathroom at the moment. Hu Zongren told me that since she refused to come out, we should go downstairs and bring our things with us, using both soft and hard tactics. I nodded.
We were about to turn around and go downstairs, but were stopped by Xiaotian. She said to us, don't worry, let me try. Hu Zongren asked her puzzledly, what do you want to try? Xiaotian said, since she arrived at the beginning
I brought her hot water in the restaurant, and after that, I had a dispute with a customer because I accidentally spilled hot milk on her face, which made people realize that she was a ghost, plus that night shift
She once waved to me and tried to express something to me. I thought if I called her, the effect might be different. I told Xiaotian that was not possible. Now this old woman doesn’t know whether she is happy or angry. You see
When we were downstairs just now, she dared to attack me directly. If you don't know magic and don't know how to protect yourself, wouldn't it be more dangerous if you come? Besides, we still don't know why this old woman is here at all.
Come to your restaurant.
Xiaotian didn't speak, but looked at us with that longing look. So I looked at Hu Zongren, trying to get some information from him, but Hu Zongren told me, then try it, we will stand behind you
To protect you. If you try and it doesn't work, then we will have to do it our way.
Xiaotian nodded and stood a few steps forward. Hu Zongren and I retreated behind her. The three of us were arranged in a triangle, all facing the direction of the toilet. Xiaotian took a deep breath, and then faced the toilet.
Shouting, mother-in-law, I know you are inside, you let me come, I am here, you come out, I have no harm, I just want to help you. After saying this, there was silence. Xiaotian waited for a while and saw you later
When there was no movement, she continued, "I don't know why you came to our place or why you waved and smiled at me. We have never met before. If you have something to say, now is the time to say it."
, you have been here for many days, if there are any things that you can't let go of, just tell them all. After saying that, she took a step forward in the direction of the toilet, and then planned to reach out and push open the door of the women's toilet.
I closely observed the movements on the compass. When Xiaotian shouted and when he put his hand on the door, the reaction fluctuated. This meant that Xiaotian’s words were heard by the old woman, but it seemed that she was still hesitating.
Xiaotian looked at me, and I nodded to her, indicating that since we have reached this point, you can open the door. So Xiaotian reached out and pushed the door open. After opening the door, Xiaotian's expression changed, and I was sure that expression was saying
, I saw her. So Hu Zongren and I followed her and moved forward a few steps until we could see the old woman directly inside the door. She was standing face to face with Xiaotian with her back against the wall, holding the knife in her hand.
Umbrella looked at Xiaotian, but her expression was very different from the one she looked at me and Hu Zongren at the beginning. Her expression was more of a kind and indescribable smile.
When I saw this, I glanced at the compass again. The movement on the compass was still fast. I think it was because the old lady appeared. But it was relatively gentle. This made me feel relieved. At least I was sure.
If this old woman didn't mess with her at this moment, she wouldn't attack us. So I put the compass back in my pants bag, and Hu Zongren and I stood outside watching. The old woman suddenly stretched out her hand, palm facing down.
Xiaotian waved, which meant that she wanted Xiaotian to come over and she had something to say. Hu Zongren said softly, "Go ahead, we are right behind you." Although Xiaotian still looked scared, she also understood that this mother-in-law would not hurt her.
She, so she walked up to her mother-in-law and put her ear to her.
In the following time, I saw Xiaotian's expression began to have various ups and downs. In the end, she flaring her nostrils and shed tears. Most of the old woman's face was covered by Xiaotian, but I could still
I could see that the old woman's face still had the same kind expression. After a while, Xiaotian stood back, stretched out his hand to wipe the tears from his eyes, exited the toilet, and closed the door. I was about to ask her why.
When the door was closed, she said to us, "Let's go down. I know what she wants."
Just as we were going downstairs, we suddenly heard a rapid slapping sound on the glass door.
