Chapter 76 He was dreaming again!
A letter from Zhou Ping'an?

How could Zhou Ping'an possibly write a letter!

Zhou Ping'an is not...

The man's eyes were filled with horror.

……

Soon it was noon, and everyone stopped, sat in the shed, ate their boxed lunches, and continued to discuss Zhou Shun's child.

They knew that Zhou Ping'an, the boy who had previously worked at the construction site, was Zhou Shun's son.

They knew about Zhou Ping'an's disappearance because Zhou Shun had come looking for him before, and the police had also intervened in the investigation.

I was worried that Zhou Ping'an might be in danger.

But now, Zhou Shun has received a letter from Zhou Ping'an, and the news from the latter means that he is safe.

"This Ping An is really something. Even if there are any conflicts or disagreements, she can still disappear, making Zhou Shun so worried."

"I didn't realize before that Ping An was such a temperamental person."

Many of the workers present had interacted with Zhou Ping'an and thought he was a kind, honest, and helpful young man.

I never expected this kid would pull a disappearing act.

"By the way, Zhou Shun, are you sure this letter was really written by Ping An?" Li Xiang asked.

After all, how can you conclude that it was written by Zhou Ping'an based solely on a letter without ever meeting the person?
"It's Ping An's handwriting, I recognize it," Zhou Shun gestured.

However, Zhou Shun told his coworkers that he was safe, but he did not reveal the specific contents of the letter.

Li Xiang was silent for a moment, then asked, "So, do you still plan to continue doing this?"

Zhou Shun shook his head and gestured to indicate that he would resign after today and leave tomorrow to return to his hometown.

"I'm planning to go home. Going home is great."

Li Xiang smiled and said, "Even recycling is better than working on this construction site. This job is too tiring."

"I'll settle your wages after get off work today, and you can go to Li Ai tomorrow after you sign the papers."

As a small contractor, he still has this right.

Zhou Shun expressed his gratitude to Li Xiang.

"By the way, Brother Xiang, I heard they're going to invite some master to perform a ritual recently, is that true?"

"Of course we have to do it. This construction site is too unsettling at night."

"Besides, last time Brother Xiang almost... Now that I think about it, the brick was clearly placed properly, how could it just happen to fall down like that?"

"Without a master to take a look, someone might die later."

Soon, everyone stopped discussing Zhou Ping'an's matter and started talking about the recent unsettling events at the construction site.

To put it nicely, things aren't very peaceful.

To put it bluntly, the construction site is haunted!
When this was mentioned, Li Xiang seemed to recall the time he almost got his head smashed by a brick, or perhaps something else, and his expression suddenly turned grim.

"Alright, alright, let's not discuss this anymore. Didn't the boss say that this is forbidden to be discussed? Anyone who does will be fired."

"Don't go spreading rumors when you get out."

After finishing his meal, Li Xiang left the greenhouse.

As everyone watched Li Xiang's retreating figure, they sensed that he was afraid, but they couldn't help but whisper among themselves.

The construction site where Chengze Building is located is very large, I heard it covers a full 10 acres.

This 10-acre plot of land was divided into several areas.

As for the haunted places, they are actually several areas.

That's right, there are several!

This was also the place where they used to work.

However, after the rumors of ghosts surfaced, they all moved to another area to work.

As for why it's said to be haunted, there are factual bases for that claim.

At first, it was when the workers got up at night that they heard something that seemed to be howling like ghosts.

Then I saw someone walking around the construction site in the middle of the night, but when they got closer, they suddenly disappeared.

Finally, someone saw the true face of that "person." It was floating, its facial features were indistinct, it was shedding blood and tears, and it kept crying out in pain.

Gradually, rumors of ghosts spread throughout the construction site.

The story spread like wildfire.

Some say there is only one ghost.

Some say there is more than one ghost, but each one is wailing and howling, as if it is suffering some great torment and pain.

Some people say it might be because the construction site used to be a cemetery.

The building was built on a cemetery, which caused the ghosts who were buried there to reappear.

But some people countered that if you really think about it, which place on this land hasn't seen someone die? They probably meant other reasons.

Then, something even stranger happened.

For example, bricks inexplicably fall from tall buildings; cranes that were working perfectly one second suddenly break down the next; and some workers have even started having nightmares filled with ghosts and monsters.

Some of the more timid workers were frightened and dared not stay any longer, so they resigned and left.

However, on construction sites, it's quite common for someone to resign and leave, only for another person to come and work for them.

The construction of the Chengze Building has been going on for over a year now, from the very beginning.

During this period, countless people came and went.

Therefore, they were not surprised by Zhou Ping'an's departure at the time.

Zhou Shun was aware of the haunting at the construction site.

However, he didn't care much, because this rumor actually came about more than half a year ago, before Ping An started working here.

Because he is deaf and mute, he cannot hear others' discussions, nor can he participate in what others are saying.

I only learned about this through lip reading, piecing it together.

Zhou Shun had neither seen nor heard of any ghosts at the construction site, partly because he was unable to hear them in the first place.

After arriving at the construction site, Zhou Shun had dreams about peace.

That evening, Zhou Shun thought, now that I've received a letter from Ping An, I probably won't have any more dreams tonight, right?
However, things did not develop as Zhou Shun had hoped.

It was midnight again when Zhou Shun woke up from his dream once more.

He was dreaming again!
It was still in the dream, and Ping An was crying out in pain.

The cries of sorrow made Zhou Shun's heart ache.

Zhou Shun wiped his eyes and realized that he had been crying without even noticing.

He took out the letter from earlier that day and was plunged into deep doubt and contemplation.

Didn't Ping An write to him?

That's enough to prove that Ping An is safe.

How could he still have such a dream?

To be honest, Zhou Shun had never doubted that the letter was fake, but now he was starting to have some doubts.

However, he did not doubt his dreams and intuition.

That night, I had the same dream again.

Zhou Shun's intuition grew even stronger.

His intuition told him he couldn't leave.

His safety must still be here.

How could he assume that everything was safe just because of a letter? What if the letter was a fake from a bad person?

Although he couldn't tell where the letter was fake.

But he will not leave unless Ping An stands before him.

So, the next day, Li Xiang, who was supposed to process Zhou Shun's resignation, heard that he was not leaving.

Why did you change your mind?

Li Xiang said with a slightly complicated look in his eyes, "Zhou Shun, I think you should leave."
