Chapter 107 Three People Walk Together
Because the house was located in a very remote area, no one usually came.
Even if someone did come, there was nothing valuable inside.
Therefore, Liu Haoyu did not lock the house.
Qin Liu initially thought that Liu Haoyu had returned, but she soon discovered something was wrong.
Judging by the footsteps, more than one person had entered the house.
It was… three people?
Qin Liu immediately hid.
Whether they were burglars or something else, her first priority was to observe.
If there were indeed burglars, she would drive them out.
As Qin Liu was thinking, she saw a hunched figure wearing a Taoist robe enter the house, accompanied by two police officers.
Seeing this lineup, Qin Liu couldn’t help but gasp.
After learning that there were ghost exorcists like Liu Haoyu in this world, Qin Liu became more cautious and careful.
She also knew that if she provoked any ghost exorcists, she would be in trouble.
Although she was a harmless ghost, an absolutely good ghost.
In the eyes of ordinary people, ghosts and monsters were probably all wicked monsters.
Therefore, if a ghost exorcist encountered her, the other party would definitely try to transcend her.
On the other hand, she only had some frightening methods and no combat ability.
If she truly met them, she could only run.
“The resentment is still so strong… so familiar.”
The old man in the Taoist robe said in a low voice.
His voice sounded a bit familiar to Qin Liu, but she couldn’t recall who it was for a moment.
“When you came last time, did you see the red gate?”
“No.”
“It’s good that you didn’t see it…”
The old man breathed a sigh of relief.
At this moment, Qin Liu finally remembered who this old man was.
Isn’t this Deng Xiaolin’s grandfather?!
He was indeed a ghost exorcist.
Qin Liu had watched quite a few Chinese horror movies, and they had such a stereotype.
The older a Taoist priest was, the stronger he was.
So Qin Liu couldn’t help but shrink her neck at this moment.
Should she hide in the dry well for a while?
Qin Liu only wanted to protect her house, but she didn’t want any conflict with others. Since she was a good person when she was alive, she naturally wouldn’t kill or harm anyone after death.
Moreover, judging by the demeanor of these three people, they were definitely here to catch ghosts.
They would definitely not be scared away by her little tricks, so… it was better to hide.
Thus, Qin Liu hid, but her gaze was always on these three people.
***
Wang Wenqi and Xiong Ying were visiting this haunted house for the second time.
Compared to their first visit, their feelings were even worse this time.
The dim corridor, the broken curtains, and the dead silence.
The place felt uncomfortable everywhere.
Even for some reason, both of them could vaguely sense a cold and terrifying gaze staring at them from somewhere.
“Old Deng, this house… has very strong ghosts, please be careful.”
Wang Wenqi whispered a reminder, and Old Deng nodded, then said.
“The more you fear ghosts, the stronger they become.”
Saying this, Old Deng ignored the strange gaze from the dark corners and walked forward fearlessly.
After walking a distance, Old Deng suddenly stopped.
Just like Deng Xiaolin, his spiritual sight was very strong, so he could see things that ordinary people couldn’t.
During his last visit to this haunted house, Old Deng narrowly escaped death thanks to this spiritual sight talent.
Otherwise… Old Deng knew his fate wouldn’t be much better than those ghost exorcists.
Wang Wenqi was holding a flashlight, a talisman in his hand, and even a consecrated handgun at his waist, which could cause considerable damage to fierce ghosts.
Seeing Old Deng stop, he asked.
“Old Deng, have you discovered something?”
The old man remained silent, his turbid eyes becoming extremely sharp at this moment.
“I can feel the aura left by the Red Gate.”
As soon as he said this, it immediately drew the focused attention of Wang Wenqi and Xiong Ying.
The two of them instinctively gripped the hands holding their waistguns.
Unlike Li Rongjun, both of them had officially obtained permits to use weapons, which included a magazine with a full fifteen rounds of bullets.
After a period of vigilance, they found nothing unusual, and Old Deng continued to speak.
“Its aura is a bit faint and very chaotic, as if it had a big fight with something, and it doesn’t seem to be here now.”
Hearing this, Wang Wenqi couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.
If he had a choice to live, he certainly didn’t want to die.
Old Deng frowned and followed the corridor to the end.
This was the first place where he encountered the Red Gate, but now it was as calm as a windless lake.
The suffocating resentment from before had also dissipated a lot.
The grayish-white walls were bare, with nothing on them.
The eerie and terrifying Red Gate from memory was now long gone.
Perhaps, as Wang Wenqi had said.
The Red Gate was gone.
When did it break free from the seal? Where did it go?
Old Deng’s turbid eyes scanned the blank wall.
Trying to find any trace of that red, rusted iron door on it.
At this moment, Wang Wenqi saw a pair of very strange things in the corner of the grayish-white wall.
He leaned closer to look, and then shuddered.
It was a pair of red embroidered shoes, looking quite dirty, with black bloodstains still on them.
They were placed quietly in the corner. If Wang Wenqi hadn’t looked a bit closer, he might have missed them entirely.
But the problem was that the appearance of these embroidered shoes here was too out of place, even giving a sense of dread upon closer inspection.
And in the dark, when Qin Liu saw these red embroidered shoes, her heart skipped a beat.
She knew that Liu Haoyu had taken these shoes out with him.
Although she didn’t know why Liu Haoyu did this, Qin Liu didn’t dare to ask.
She was afraid that the answer would be something nonsensical.
But now, the shoes were back…
Where was Liu Haoyu?
Had something really happened to him?
Qin Liu became a little anxious.
However, the problem was that her anxiety was useless.
After all, she didn’t have a mobile phone, couldn’t contact Liu Haoyu, and couldn’t even leave this house.
In this situation, all she could do was stare anxiously, stamping her feet in place, and nothing else.
When Old Deng saw these red embroidered shoes, his pupils constricted, and he said.
“Don’t touch it! Step back!”
Old Deng’s spiritual sight was very strong, and in his vision.
These were not ordinary embroidered shoes; they were embroidered shoes with spirits.
The immense killing intent they emitted seemed as if they had just returned from killing in hell.
Even Old Deng couldn’t help but feel fear because of it.
