Views:

"Hello, Brother Cui." Wu Zhicong put the phone to my ear, and I said weakly to the other side. Cui Zuofei heard that my voice sounded weak and asked quickly: "What's wrong with you?"

"Ahem, Brother Cui, I need you to do me a favor." I coughed and told Cui Zuofei everything about the Seven Star Lamp and my life extension. After listening to me, Cui Zuofei said, "Xiao Jiu, I have an urgent matter to deal with now. Don't worry, I will come to help you as soon as I finish it."

"Well, thank you for your help, Brother Cui." I didn't have any medicine, so Brother Cui came over directly, because I had just told him the situation here. My life was in danger. Even after I said this, Brother Cui said he would deal with that matter before coming over, which meant that the matter was not ordinary important. I didn't want to force Brother Cui, after all, Brother Cui also had his own things to do, and it was good enough that he could come over to help.

After hanging up the phone, I breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Xiao Cong, I'll trouble you with the matter of the centenarian and Bai Jiami."

"Get lost, don't say these polite words to me, just wait until you get better and have a drink with me." Wu Zhicong then went out to handle the discharge procedures for me. We can't put up seven-star lanterns in this hospital, and this is a hospital. If a lot of monsters come on the last day, won't many people die in this hospital?"

Wu Zhicong quickly took me out. Wu Zhicong was very efficient. He rented a small warehouse on a suburban road in Chongqing. The warehouse was square, about 100 meters long and 7 or 8 meters high. It was empty inside. It was said before that it would be used to store goods. There was no goods stored during this period, so Wu Zhicong rented it.

Wu Zhicong also bought three quilts and placed them in the middle of the warehouse. After I moved in, I lay in the middle of the warehouse and couldn't move. Wu Zhicong also got me a laptop to watch TV. I was lying on the floor watching Tom and Jerry. It was about seven o'clock in the evening. Qin Qing and I were watching Tom and Jerry when Wu Zhicong came back.

He did not come back alone, he brought with him an old man with white hair and many wrinkles, who was wearing a black Zhongshan suit. Behind him followed a man and a woman, both in their twenties or thirties. They looked like his grandsons.

"Great-grandfather, slow down." The two men behind me helped the old man to walk to my side. The old man seemed unable to open his eyes. He took a match and lit seven ancient lamps. This was the first time the ancient lamps were lit. After lighting them, Wu Zhicong felt that they were arranged in the shape of a seven-star formation on the left side of my bed, and then he pressed the piece of paper with my birth date under the main soul lamp.

When I pressed on it, I felt a slight burning sensation in seven places on my abdomen, as if there was a small ball of fire burning in my abdomen, but it was not uncomfortable. On the contrary, the feeling was very comfortable.

After lighting the torch, Wu Zhicong said something to the old man, and the old man turned around and left with the two young men. I later asked Wu Zhicong how he invited this old man, and later I found out that he had hired him with a large sum of money.

After sending the two old men away, Wu Zhicong got a big bag of rice from somewhere. Speaking of this bag of rice, Wu Zhicong was also very smart. You know, it would take a lot of time to knock on every door to ask for rice. Wu Zhicong directly took out 10,000 yuan, and then held a big loudspeaker and shouted at the gate of the community, "A bowl of rice is 100 yuan, only the first 100 people, first come first served." Although 100 yuan is not much, who doesn't want to take advantage of a little bit of money? Of course, these are all told to me by Wu Zhicong later.

Wu Zhicong took the bag of rice and poured it at the door of the warehouse, then lit a red candle. The door of the warehouse was a rolling door, but it was usually opened only for transporting goods. There was also an inconspicuous small door next to the rolling door, and it was here that Wu Zhicong lit the red candle.

"Brother Xiaojiu, the lights are on, you must be fine. The address here has also been sent to Brother Cui." After finishing all his work, Wu Zhicong looked tired, sat next to me and said with a smile.

"Thank you for your hard work." My throat was already burning at this time, as if it was dry, and it was extremely painful to say a word.

"Don't be silly, just have a good rest, I'll take care of everything!" After Wu Zhicong said that, he rubbed his temple, took out the props from the cloth altar and began to set up the formation. He had to prepare to prevent the monsters behind from tearing me apart.

Qin Qing, who was standing next to me, was told by me at the beginning that what was going to happen next would be very dangerous, and asked her to stay outside for two days. However, she said that I was the only one she knew now, and she didn't know what to do if we were separated. She also said that she had seen all kinds of storms in the Qin Dynasty, and she sounded like a woman who was as good as any man when she said that. However, when I remembered how she turned pale when she saw the jumping corpse in the tomb, I shook my head helplessly.

The following days were very boring. I felt my body getting better slowly. The seven fireballs in my abdomen were getting hotter and hotter, but my body was also getting more and more comfortable. During this period, some wandering ghosts came to make trouble, but they were dealt with by Wu Zhicong in two or three moves. They were just some wandering ghosts and could not cause any trouble. Qin Qing was scared. Although I felt much better, I was still lying on the ground unable to move. I could only look at Wu Zhicong. Finally, on the second night, a jumping corpse that was a little bit powerful came.

It was probably around nine o'clock in the evening. Wu Zhicong was extremely tired. He hadn't slept for nearly 24 hours. I asked him to rest for a while. He also understood that if he forced himself to stay awake, he would not be able to hold on if something really happened. But just after he lay down to sleep, I felt something strange. I heard banging sounds coming from outside the warehouse.

At first I thought it was my hallucination, and the banging sound disappeared after a while, but appeared again after just ten seconds, and this time the beating sound seemed to be inside the warehouse. There were many vents on the top of the warehouse, and they were very large. After all, the factory building was seven or eight meters high, and the surrounding walls were very smooth, so no one thought that someone would climb in from outside.

I endured the pain in my head and quickly put cow's tears in my eyes. After leaving the underworld, I looked back and saw that, sure enough, a jumping corpse was jumping towards us.

The face of this jumping corpse had been quite decayed, and it was wearing a black shroud. It looked like it had been buried in the 1970s or 1980s. However, it must have had bad feng shui, so it got mixed up with the air and started to rise again.
