Weed practice method

The time displayed in the lower right corner of the surveillance video was eleven o'clock in the evening. At that time, everyone in the company had already left work, and the entire floor was empty.

Because it was late at night, and the camera didn't have night vision function, the pictures captured looked like old blurry black and white TVs, and the situation in the general manager's office could only be barely seen through the moonlight outside the window.

Ye Tang stretched his neck and watched curiously for a while, but didn't find anything interesting, so he quietly stepped aside.

At this time, the unchanging video changed. The door of the office opened slowly by itself. After a while, a black figure came in from the outside. Judging from the outline, the body and head were round but without facial features. It was about half the height of the desk. , looked like a slightly larger animal, the black shadow slowly moved to the foot of Boss Gao's private desk and stopped, and then the chubby body was shaking back and forth.

"What... what is this doing?" Ye Tang asked puzzled, of course he couldn't tell what kind of animal was on the screen.

"It's eating the table legs." Boss Gao said puzzledly, "It gnawed on not only one, but the other four table legs were damaged by it, just like mice, but there shouldn't be such a big mouse. Made a desk."

Ye Tang and Li Xuan stared at the computer screen intently. It took about 15 minutes for the black figure to gnaw on the four table legs, and then slowly moved towards the door.

At this time, the black shadow suddenly stopped, and slowly turned his head to look at the camera diagonally behind. Suddenly, a light spot flashed on the head without facial features, and the light spot disappeared after only a flash, until the black shadow disappeared at the door of the office.

Ye Tang poked Li Xuan beside him and asked, "Do you know what this is? A big round mouse that eats wood."

"I don't know." Li Xuan frowned and thought: "There are indeed some animals that have been refined for a long time, usually in remote mountain forests or old villages, but this is the first time I have seen this."

Seeing that Li Xuan was worried, Ye Tang secretly called Boss Gao out of the door and asked, "Your desk is gnawed and you put a mousetrap on it. Do you need to find Daoist Li?"

"Are you really Daochang Li's assistant? Why didn't he tell you anything?" Boss Gao looked around to make sure there was no one else around, and then whispered, "A man in our company committed suicide by jumping off a building half a month ago. Panicked. A few days ago, another female employee disappeared for no apparent reason. This time, I didn’t dare to reveal the slightest bit of news, but said that she was fired by me, for fear that other employees would not dare to come to work if they found out.”

Boss Gao sighed and told Ye Tang in detail about all the strange things that happened in the company recently.

The first thing that happened was a male employee named Li Guoqiang in the collection department.

On the afternoon of the accident, he and a few colleagues came back from outside asking for debts. They were still cursing in the corridor on the seventh floor, complaining that it was getting harder and harder to get money, saying that the man who owed money ran away, leaving his wife and daughter behind. I was too scared to open the door at home.

After the others returned to the office one after another, Li Guoqiang said he wanted to smoke a cigarette, so he stood at the corner of the corridor with his arms bent on the window sill and lit a cigarette.

According to a colleague who passed by at the time, Li Guoqiang suddenly froze before taking two puffs of a cigarette. His hands seemed to be struggling to throw the cigarette butt onto the fortune tree next to him. He was like a marionette. In a particularly awkward posture, he climbed up the window and jumped from the seventh floor.

After that, more and more weird things happened. Various scratches appeared inexplicably around the company's elevator, just like the marks left by some kind of animal's sharp claws scratching on the wall.

The scratches are increasing every day. At first, Boss Gao thought it was some prank or a brat doing the damage, so he went to the guard’s room to call up the surveillance in the elevator to check the situation. Unexpectedly, the guard said that the surveillance was broken in the past few days.

As a last resort, Boss Gao gave some money and asked the doorman to add a protective board to the elevator.

What happened later was a female employee working in the sales department on the sixth floor.

She disappeared without a sound when she took the elevator upstairs in the morning.

There are also surveillance cameras in the corridors on the first floor and the sixth floor. The surveillance shows that the female employee did not come out after entering the elevator from the first floor. What is strange is that the elevator door on the sixth floor is always closed and does not open. People have come up.

There are few business people who are not superstitious. After so many things happened one after another, Boss Gao wondered if he had raised some eyebrows or the feng shui in the office was not good.

And just a few days before he made up his mind to invite an expert to take a look at Feng Shui, his precious mahogany desk was gnawed by strange animals again.

Boss Gao walked up to Li Xuan again, looked at him and asked, "Daozhang Li, do you think there is any relationship between so many things that happened?"

Li Xuan said: "At present, it is still unclear about the relationship. Instead of guessing, it is better to ask the parties directly."

"What party?"

Li Xuan looked at Boss Gao and smiled slightly: "Isn't the one who committed suicide by jumping off the building the person involved?"

The spiritual ceremony was arranged before sunset, that is, at around five in the afternoon. Boss Gao set up an altar near the household registration by the corridor window on the seventh floor. Ye Tang bought the tribute and took out other ritual artifacts and put them in place according to Li Xuan's requirements.

Li Xuan would burn three pillars of high incense and kowtow to the statue on the altar before each practice.

Ye Tang quietly stood behind him and watched Li Xuan holding the soul-calling banner and chanting the mantra, and couldn't help thinking of the scene where Li Xuan performed the soul-calling ritual for himself.

At this time, Ye Tang felt a gust of cool wind blowing behind him, he turned his head and saw a transparent figure standing vaguely at the stairs.

Because it was daytime, the figure was not as obvious as at night. Judging from the outline, it should be a man. He stood there with his head bowed and hands down, unable to see his expression clearly.

Ye Tang hurriedly pulled Boss Gao beside him and said in a low voice, "Did you see that, just stand by the stairs."

Boss Gao looked in the direction he was pointing, and said blankly, "I can't see anything."

Hearing what Boss Gao said, Ye Tang remembered that ordinary people can't see the soul body, of course, his own special constitution is an exception.

Li Xuan turned around and glanced at the summoned soul, and quickly chanted formulas that ordinary people could not understand.As the saying goes, there are people talking, and ghosts talking nonsense. Ye Tang probably guessed half of it. Li Xuan should be communicating with that soul, asking who killed him.

The transparent figure heard Li Xuan's words, and slowly turned to the direction where Ye Tang was standing. Ye Tang waved his hands in surprise and said, "I didn't harm you, we don't know each other."

The ghost slowly raised its hand again and pointed straight at Boss Gao beside Ye Tang.

Boss Gao, who didn't know why, was still in a daze. Seeing Ye Tang and Li Xuan staring at him with strange eyes, he quickly asked, "What's the matter? What are you looking at me for?"

"He said you killed him." Ye Tang said.

"Nonsense! How could I hurt my employees when I was doing well!" Boss Gao tried his best to defend, his face flushed.

Li Xuan waved his sleeve in the direction of the stairs, and the ghost quietly walked down the stairs and disappeared.

Ye Tang saw that Li Xuan had already started packing up the magic weapon with a cold face, so he hurried over and asked, "This is the end? What should we do next?"

"No, go back." Li Xuan continued to collect things without looking at Boss Gao from the beginning to the end.

Boss Gao was in a hurry now: "Hey Daoist Li, what do you mean by that? You don't do half-finished things."

"Our Taoist temple has a rule that you should not do things for the priests with bad conduct, and you will suffer the evils you committed yourself."

"Master Daoist, you have to believe me. I really didn't do anything wrong. I didn't do anything wrong." Boss Gao stomped his feet anxiously when he saw that Li Xuan had packed up his things and was dragging his pockets to leave: "Oh, I jumped into the Yellow River." It can't be cleaned."

"The soul can't lie, only human beings can lie." Li Xuan gave Boss Gao a contemptuous look and left without looking back.

Ye Tang stood still and hadn't reacted yet. When he saw Li Xuan leaving, he wanted to follow him, but Boss Gao grabbed his arm and refused to let him go.

"You, what do you want to do?" Ye Tang swallowed a little scared, wondering if he would be silenced just because he knew the secret of Boss Gao's murder.

Boss Gao softened his tone to please Ye Tang and said, "Handsome guy, aren't you Daoist Li's assistant? Please help me persuade him to help me with this matter."

"I can't help you with this." Ye Tang hurriedly waved his hands to evade, "You can also see that Li Daochang is such a well-behaved person, he naturally has his own rules when doing things."

"But strange things happen here every now and then, and I'm afraid that something will happen in the future." Boss Gao saw that Ye Tang refused to help him, so he called Yongzi from the collection department to press Ye Tang against the wall.

"Hey, what do you want to do..." Ye Tang couldn't move his hands under the pressure of the big man with flowery arms. Seeing Boss Gao groping for something on his body, he cursed in fright: "What the hell are you doing touching me, take your hands away! ! Li Xuan, you big bastard, just leave me here!"

"Don't yell! You're attracting people again!" Boss Gao covered his mouth, fumbled for a while and finally found the phone in Ye Tang's trousers pocket.

Boss Gao took Ye Tang's mobile phone and dialed his number before returning it to Ye Tang and saying, "I'm sorry, handsome guy. I really can't do anything wrong. Daoist Li doesn't have a mobile phone. But I have your number now, in case something happens to you I'll call you when things go wrong, and I'll ask you to help me when the time comes."

After Ye Tang was released by Yongzi, he ran down the stairs and just wanted to get out of here quickly, but at the corner of the sixth floor, he accidentally bumped into Mrs. Sun who was going upstairs with a mop.

Mrs. Sun fell down on the ground and said in pain, "Young man, can't you run slower when you go down the stairs, why is there a ghost chasing you!"

"I'm sorry, grandma." Ye Tang looked back, seeing that Boss Gao and Yongzi had already left, he was no longer afraid.

He helped Mrs. Sun up and apologized repeatedly: "Where did you fall? Do you want me to take you to the hospital to check?"

"Forget it, although I am old, but my bones are strong, seeing that you are a good boy, it will not be difficult for you."

Mrs. Sun patted the dust on her buttocks, then asked Ye Tang in a low voice: "The Taoist priest who was with you quit?"

"Well, quit, I despise Boss Gao's bad conduct, and say that he is self-inflicted." Ye Tang said.

"Hehe... let's go, let's go." Mrs. Sun nodded with a smile, revealing a shining golden tooth, picked up the mop and continued to climb the stairs slowly, still muttering: "No one in this company is a good person." , should be punished by God.”

Ye Tang looked at Mrs. Sun's hunched back, always feeling that she seemed to know something.But since Li Xuan doesn't care about this matter, it's not his turn to worry about it.

After Ye Tang left the office building, he saw Li Xuan was waiting for him by the side of the road dragging his pockets, he felt a little angry and deliberately turned his head away to ignore Li Xuan.

Li Xuan came over and said to Ye Tang, "Leave your phone number behind."

"Li Daochang's calculations are quite accurate. I was almost eaten tofu, do you know that I am an artist anyway, so someone got my phone number just like that." Ye Tang rolled his eyes angrily.

"Sorry, because I don't have a cell phone."

"You left my number without a mobile phone?" Ye Tang felt that sometimes Li Xuan did things too selfishly, never considering his feelings.

But after thinking about it, it was obvious that I was the one who took the initiative to follow me to be an assistant, so I couldn't get angry anymore.

Ye Tang asked puzzledly: "Didn't you stop doing work for Boss Gao? Why did you still leave your number for him?"

"Many things happened too strangely. I always vaguely feel that someone is deliberately preventing me from participating in this matter. Including the soul body that was recruited today, I don't think he is the employee who jumped to his death." Li Xuan explained with a frown.

"Why are you sure he didn't commit suicide by jumping off the building?" Ye Tang asked.

"I remember Boss Gao told me that the person who committed suicide by jumping off the building was the employee of the collection department who was in charge of door-to-door collection. Since it was a door-to-door collection, it should be a strong man similar to Yongzi who can scare the debtors."

Li Xuan paused and continued to analyze: "But what I recruited was the soul of a thin man. The ghost kept lowering its head and refused to look at me. I asked his name and no one answered him. He just accused me of killing Boss Gao." he."

The more Ye Tang listened, the more he felt that the clouds were in the fog, and all kinds of unimaginable and weird events seemed unrelated, but they always made people feel that something was missing, a thread that could connect all things was missing.

Li Xuan said to him: "I can't figure out many things, so now we can only wait."

"Waiting for what?" Ye Tang asked puzzled.

"Wait for the call." Li Xuan smiled lightly, looked at Ye Tang deeply and said, "Come sleep with me in the hotel tonight."

"What do you mean!" Ye Tang blushed subconsciously clutching his shirt collar and stammered, "I, I am a very upright person..."

"Then you can lend me your mobile phone, there may be a call at night."

Only then did Ye Tang realize that Li Xuan asked him to stay because he had to wait for Boss Gao's call at night. He didn't expect that he would think of such a thing, and he was so ashamed that he wanted to find a crack in the ground.

"No, there are many important numbers in the artist's mobile phone, so I can't give them to you." Ye Tang looked around awkwardly not to look at Li Xuan, and then whispered after a long while: "I'd better stay with you in the hotel."
