However, inquiring about these things was just a precaution. Before his strength recovered to a certain extent, Lin Yi would not leave Xima City for the time being.
After staying at the food stall for two hours, it was nearly ten o 'clock when Lin Yi returned to the community. This place was deserted during the day, and it was even quieter at night. Looking around the entire community, there were only a few rooms with lights on. People who were timid would probably not dare to walk at night. Who knew if it was really haunted?
In a crowded place like the downtown area, being haunted was just a joke. But in a dark and quiet environment like this, once such a thought popped up, even the most courageous person would have goosebumps.
However, Lin Yi did not care. Not to mention that he did not believe that there were ghosts in this world, even if there were, in his eyes, it was just a kind of spirit. Wasn't he himself now? If he really encountered it, it was uncertain who would be the scariest one.
Climbing up the dark stairs to the fifth floor, Lin Yi subconsciously glanced at the opposite door. If he could have a chance encounter with the cold girl, as neighbors, he might be able to get a few words out of her. Unfortunately, the other party must be in seclusion to heal at this time. It was estimated that there would be no chance for a while.
Of course, the premise must be a chance encounter. Lin Yi certainly would not take the initiative to knock on the door. Although he could also use the identity of neighbors to strike up a conversation, he estimated that with the cold girl's style, if she was unhappy, she might kill him. That would be counterproductive.
Taking out the key, Lin Yi was about to open his door. At this time, the opposite door suddenly opened. The tall woman stood quietly in the room, looking up and down at Lin Yi coldly.
Lin Yi jumped in fright. What was wrong with this cold girl, doing something like this in the middle of the night? He was the only one who was brave enough to do something like this in the middle of the night. A normal person would've had a heart attack if they'd been thinking about ghosts. This cold girl wouldn't be lying at the door staring at me, would she?
The two of them looked at each other, and no one spoke. After a moment, the tall woman asked, "I heard that your house is haunted?"
"Huh?" Lin Yi was slightly stunned. He shook his head and said, "It should be a rumor. Anyway, I don't feel anything wrong. Did it affect you?"
"No." The tall woman replied and closed the door without saying anything else.
Lin Yi was left standing at the door, confused. He shook his head and laughed. Then, he opened the door and entered his room.
Lin Yi was quite surprised by the cold girl's sudden appearance, but he was not afraid that she would see through his problem. Once his spirit body solidified, not only would ordinary people not be able to detect it, even ordinary cultivators would not be able to see through it. Unless it was someone like Sun Baimei who had a special cultivation technique, there was no need to worry about exposing his identity under normal circumstances.
At that moment, two people suddenly appeared at the entrance of the residential area. To Lin Yi, they were two familiar faces. One was an old vegetable seller, and the other had a crew cut. They were the two swindlers who had cheated him of his money during the day.
"What the f * ck? The money was clearly in my pocket. Why is it gone?" The Crew-cut cursed.
"Could it be that you have offended some expert again? You want them to search us clean of all our money without us knowing, right? I told you long ago that we must not be ostentatious in this line of work. You brat, once you have some money, you go to the nightclub to wash your hair. There are all sorts of places like that. No matter who you offend, it will be troublesome. Now, even I am unlucky! "The old man scolded.
"Master, I have said it a few thousand times. I only go to those nightclubs to take advantage of them. I don't do anything else. How would I offend anyone! It can't be that you didn't keep your eyes open. Did you deceive someone you shouldn't have? "The Crew-cut complained.
"Bullsh * t! I have been in this line of work for decades. How can I be wrong? It must be you who caused trouble. You don't even know that you have offended someone. You can't be reliable without any hair on your mouth. You should be more careful! "The old man continued to scold.
"Okay, okay, okay. It's all my fault. If I find out which bastard is doing such a wicked thing, I will deceive him! "The Crew-cut said angrily.
"Just because of what you said, you will suffer in the future. You have no memory at all!" The old man patted the Crew-cut and paused. "Fortunately, there is still this job tonight. I won't be empty-handed."
"Tsk, this doesn't cost much. It's boring." The Crew-cut complained. The scam during the day was ten thousand as long as it was successful. But now, this kind of work only cost three hundred or two hundred. He was not willing to earn this little money.
"You are thinking of something good! Do you think it is so easy to succeed in the day? It is good enough to catch one in a month. If you don't earn this little money at other times, are you waiting to starve? "The old man scolded.
"Yes, yes, yes. Rice has to be eaten bite by bite, and the road has to be walked step by step. Is this okay? It is obviously a scam, but it is so rustic. Those who don't know would think that they are migrant workers … "The Crew-cut shrank his neck helplessly.
"If it's not rustic, how can it be a scam? Do you really think it is as high-tech as those movies you watch? Only a fool would believe that! " The old man kicked him and urged, "Hurry up, don't delay things. After finishing this job, we still have to do some scouting tomorrow."
While the two of them were talking, they walked into a house one after another. They went straight up to the fifth floor and stopped in front of Lin Yi's room.
The two of them exchanged glances. The old man then began to paste black paper on his face. In addition to his black clothes, the surrounding light was very dim. His entire person suddenly became a dark mass. He stood in the shadow of the corner. If one didn't pay attention, they really wouldn't notice him. If they did notice him, it would be even worse. If they met such a thing in the middle of the night, they would be scared out of their wits!
The Crew-cut wore a low-quality wig and a wide white robe. At the same time, he patted white foundation on his face and smeared a few streaks of tomato juice on it. At first glance, it looked like blood. When he made a face, it was scarier than the old man.
Everything was ready. The old man took out the key and quietly opened the door. The two of them slipped in. When they saw that there was no one in the living room, they looked at each other and slipped into the bedroom. Neither of them made any footsteps, and the way they walked was extremely creepy. At first glance, it looked like they were floating. It really looked like they were haunted.
