Chapter 4 Verse 10

  Chengzhou saw Yingying crying in the house, and after hearing the call outside the door, she jumped off the bed like a bird and rushed to the door.

  But she didn't open the door immediately.

  Then Cheng Zhou saw a scene no less than an eight o'clock prime-time soap opera's melodramatic plot twist.

  The woman cried and cried, talking about something while crying.

  The man outside the door kept persuading, occasionally with a gentle call.

  The woman, after complaining tearfully to the man about her love and resentment, began to cry sadly and say that she had unintentionally done something terribly frightening.

  Cheng Zhou stood at the door of Yingying's bedroom, silently gazing at the middle-aged woman hanging on the wall not far away, her eyes still open. He then looked towards the window where a mournful sigh was still coming from.

  He couldn't understand why this woman named Yingying could spend so much time crying and complaining to a man behind closed doors, yet didn't even bother to take a look at her own mother or help out her own grandmother.

  Maybe she was driven crazy by a series of blows, or maybe in her heart, the man outside the door is above everything.

  The door finally opened.

  After the young man had comforted the young woman for nearly half an hour in his arms, they began to walk towards the house.

  Then the well-dressed young man found the middle-aged woman hanging on the wall.

  Ying didn't realize her mother had passed away until her boyfriend reminded her at this moment.

  The woman started crying again.

  The man said he would call the police.

  The woman held him tightly and wouldn't let go, crying that she was finished and saying it wasn't intentional, repeating the same few sentences over and over.

  The man heard a moan outside the window, leaned over to take a look, and immediately gasped in shock.

  Cheng Zhou didn't go over to take a look, because he knew how terrifying the scene would be, and he didn't want to find trouble, let alone have nightmares at night.

  If everything that had happened in this house up to now, Cheng Zhou felt was miserable but still within the range of what a normal person could understand, but everything that happened afterwards truly shocked him.

  He never thought anyone would do something so bold and terrifying!

  Under Jing's crying plea, the man called Ming Ge by Jing went around to the outside of the door and brought the old lady back home.

  Cheng Zhou couldn't help but see the old man who had been scalded by boiling water, looking like a monster, and he even felt that he smelled a nauseating smell of roasted meat.

  Ming Ge asked the woman if she wanted to call an ambulance, the old lady was scalded seriously but could still be saved.

  There was also an old lady who was still conscious, crying out "Save me, save me" and then scolding her granddaughter for being heartless, cursing her to be boiled in oil in hell.

  Yingying's eyes changed, she looked at her mother still hanging on the wall, then at her grandmother lying on the ground cursing and wailing, finally looking towards Mingge.

  "Ming Ge, I'm scared, what should I do? I love you so much, grandma and mom always stop me from being with you, and today you mention breaking up with me... Waaah, just leave, Ming Ge, I'll call the police, I'll accept the punishment, just leave."

  Ming Ge was clearly hesitant, he took out his phone and looked at it again and again.

  "I think it's better to explain this clearly to the police, your mother... you didn't mean to. As for your grandmother, didn't you say that you accidentally knocked over the thermos on the windowsill and scalded her? You can also explain it clearly to the police, and I'm sure everything will be fine. Then I'll call an ambulance."

  Ming Ge finished speaking and bowed his head to dial the ambulance phone number.

  Ying retreated into the kitchen step by step.

  Ming Ge's phone didn't get through, he frowned and dialed again.

  Ying picked up a sharp-tipped dagger.

  Cheng Zhou wanted to remind Ming Ge, but when he bumped into Ming Ge, Ming Ge didn't react at all, just like the time he bumped into that middle-aged woman before.

  What's going on?

  Before he could react, Ming Ge, who was lowering his head to dial the phone, was stabbed in the back by his ex-girlfriend with a sharp knife!

  Ming Ge's phone fell to the ground. He turned around and glared at Yingying, reaching back to touch the sharp knife inserted into his own back. "You...!"

  Yingying looked extremely calm, but she smiled slightly nervously: "Ming Ge, I've done so much for you, yet you want to send me to prison. Hehe, what? You think you can just get rid of me like that? Do you want to be with Yao Fangqing that broken shoe or is there another rich woman who has her eyes on you?"

  "You...!" Ming Ge's mouth spat out fresh blood, his face and eyes filled with incredulity.

  Yingying saw Mingge walking towards her, pointing at her with a terrifying expression. She suddenly let out a loud cry and pushed Mingge away forcefully.

  Ming Ge crashed into the wall, and the sharp knife on his back inserted deeper into his body again.

  A large amount of blood gushed out of Ming Ge's mouth.

  Yingying glanced at Mingge with a tilted head, avoiding him, and walked past him and her mother, also avoiding the old lady who was lying on the ground muttering to herself.

  What does she want to do?

  Chengzhou initially thought she wanted to commit suicide or something, but instead saw the woman pull out a toolbox from under her parents' bed and take out a hammer.

  She's crazy!

  This woman is absolutely crazy!

  Cheng Chou witnessed Ying Nu use a hammer to smash her ex-boyfriend's head, killing him instantly. Then she used the same hammer to crush her own grandmother's face, cursing and swearing as she did so.

  The ship is going to collapse!

  What kind of person is this!

  The white cat swished its tail and walked out of the door directly.

  Cheng Zhou didn't want to stay in this place anymore, he walked to the door and went to open it.

  The door handle actually turned for him, and the door opened, so he just walked out.

  Just as he stepped out of the door, he heard a noise behind him. When he turned around, he saw a magical scene.

  It seems like two scenes accidentally overlapped each other.

  One Yinyin was hitting her grandmother's head and face while scolding, another Yinyin wearing a full-body raincoat and a bath cap opened the bathroom door, stuck her head out, saw the open door, frowned and tentatively called out: "Dad? Are you back?"

  Cheng Zhou didn't see the axe hidden behind Yingying, but he subconsciously felt that this Yingying who appeared from behind was the real one. He wanted to take another look, but after discovering no one responded to her, this Yingying immediately came out and closed the big gate.

  Chengzhou turned his head and stared at a white Pekingese squatting on the stairs as if leading the way for him.

  "This is what you wanted me to see? Everything that happened in this building, past and present?"

  Jing Ba didn't answer him and continued running up to the second floor.

  Afterwards, Cheng Zhou followed Jing Ba and saw one scene after another of human tragedy.

  The old couple got into an argument, and in a fit of anger, the wife carelessly threw the dishrag onto the stove, forgetting that there was still a fire burning to cook dinner. The husband grabbed a bottle of wine to drown his sorrows, but as he struggled with his wife over the bottle, he accidentally spilled the liquid everywhere, including all over their bodies.

  The old wife was so angry that she went back to her room and slept. Because she couldn't sleep, she simply took two sleeping pills.

  The old man continued drinking, getting completely drunk.

  The fire started in the kitchen and spread to a pile of newspapers stacked in the corner of the wall, which were soaked with liquor.

  The big fire spread out like this...

  Room 302, a middle-aged man is excitedly shouting with his wife.

  "I won! I really won! One million! I'm rich!"

  "That Daoist was really something! He told me to bring the spirit tablet to that person at that time and place, saying that as long as that person touched the tablet, the curse would be transferred. I didn't believe it, but... Haha! These past two days my luck at mahjong has been incredible, and now even the lottery ticket I bought has won! One million! A full one million!"

  The man almost laughed out loud. He wanted to keep this from his wife, but unfortunately, she was standing right next to him when he checked the lottery number.

  "You take care of the lottery ticket for me, in case you lose it." A middle-aged woman with a decent appearance but a hint of weariness said to her husband with a smile.

  "No!" The middle-aged man immediately refused and then looked at his wife with a vigilant gaze.

  The middle-aged woman immediately covered her mouth and smiled coquettishly, she also gently pushed her husband, "You're so silly, see how worried you are? I'm your wife, I've been with you for over 20 years, almost 30 years, it's always been me who's supported you, when have I ever taken advantage of your money?"

  The middle-aged man's face softened slightly, but he immediately said unpleasantly: "What do you mean by always flattering me? The old man has been raising you and your mother for over 20 years, all in vain?"

  The middle-aged woman quickly and cleverly changed the subject, "Who was that person you hit? Do we know them?"

  "I don't know, I just saw the police chasing him. The Taoist said that man has a strong yang energy and light eight characters, as long as we transfer the curse to his body, then that little bastard will bother him instead of us from now on. Damn it! Not only did I raise a good-for-nothing son, but he also got me into trouble!"

  The middle-aged woman was not afraid of the man, and after being scolded by him, she glared back at him, "If you hadn't refused to pay her tuition fees and forced her to go out and sell herself, she wouldn't have hated you so much."

  The middle-aged man cursed a few dirty words, "I'm just raising her well enough, she's not even my own daughter!"

  "How did you know she wasn't your own?"

  "Do you still want to cheat me? That good-for-nothing doesn't look like me in any way! She even has a different blood type than me!"

  "That can't prove she's not your daughter either, you want her to take a DNA test with you, but you're not willing to spend that money." The woman herself couldn't even remember whose child the girl was, those few days she had received several customers, who could tell.

  "It's not like he's my son, what's the point of spending so much money?" The middle-aged man started scolding again, and as he scolded, he suddenly burst out laughing.

  "That Taoist told me to hit the one being chased by the police, but I thought at that time, isn't the policeman's yang energy even stronger? Moreover, aren't they all saying that people in this line of work have evil spirits on their bodies, and big ghosts and small ghosts are afraid of them? But I didn't hit that man, I hit the policeman instead. Tsk, the effect was really beyond my imagination! Luckily, I chose to hit the policeman."

  "Will bumping into someone be useless?" The woman was a bit worried.

  "How come it's useless? Look at how good our luck has been these past few days! Didn't you say that when you went out, you even picked up a gold necklace?"

  "It's hard to say whether it's true or false." The woman also laughed.

  "We'll take it to the gold shop up front and have a look, hehe!"

  Who is that Taoist? Why did he let Yao An bump into me and transfer the curse onto me?

  Is this a coincidence, or is it intentional?

  Cheng Zhou was at a loss, then he saw Yao Fangqing appear with her son in front of his parents.

  Yao An and his wife were frightened out of their wits on the spot!

  Yao Fangqing and her mother didn't do anything to them, just coldly looked at them and said: "You're very happy that you won the big prize and picked up the gold necklace, aren't you? Unfortunately, you'll never be able to leave this house. You can stay home and watch that lottery ticket and that gold necklace, see but not get, I hope it won't torture you too much."

  Yao Fangqing and her son disappeared, Yao An burst into a loud curse.

  Yao's mother told him to quickly call the Taoist priest and have him come to catch the ghost.

  Yao An found that the phone couldn't be dialed out, and he tried to open the door, but all the doors and windows leading outside couldn't be opened. He ran to the balcony and shouted loudly, but no one heard him.

  Yao's mother saw Yao An like this, and immediately went to check the family's stored grain after a moment of anxiety.

  Cheng Chou left at 3:02 while Yao An and his wife were hitting and cursing each other.

  "Yao Fangqing's move is ruthless enough, she doesn't curse her parents, but chooses to let them see their beautiful dreams almost come true, only to make them forever look but not eat, and also makes them live in the desperate situation of possibly starving or thirsting to death." Cheng Chou muttered to himself.

  4th floor, 5th floor...

  Many tragic events originate from chance, sometimes just a few quarrels between husband and wife, then disaster occurs in the push and shove. Sometimes it's just a child playing a small prank, and the prank turns into a tragedy.

  It's as if there was an invisible hand behind the scenes deliberately creating and pushing for the tragic events that occurred in this building.

  Cheng Zhou couldn't take it anymore after watching one family tragedy after another.

  He propped his hand against the wall, but found that he had touched a handful of blackness. Looking again, those black particles like dust were still floating in the air, and Cheng Meng suddenly widened his eyes!

  Fire!

  No matter whether time cycles appear in this building or not, in reality, a fire has already broken out in the building and is spreading without anyone noticing.
