Dealing with ghosts is the bounden duty of a ghost controller, and it feels good to get money easily from solving incidents.

Can't go back anymore.

She sat on the coffin lid and used her body to suppress the corpse inside. She took out her mobile phone and found Yan Yi, the team leader of the Ghost Countermeasures and Defense Department whom she met last time, on QQ.

He hasn't given her a reply since the incident in the library. Now that he has a clear answer in his heart, it's inappropriate to continue dragging others along.

[Unfortunately, I have a more suitable choice for me and decided to proceed with the original plan and not join the Defense Department.Thank you for the invitation and I hope you can find someone more suitable. 】

The money given by the official ghost control organization is too little. Fifty thousand sounds like a lot. Compared with the commission posted on the "Supernatural Recovery" website, the tens of thousands of dollars are pitifully small.

She read the document carefully from beginning to end. There is no official rest day for ghost controllers. Holidays are all given based on the situation. After signing the agreement, it is equivalent to selling oneself to the Ministry of Defense. All actions must be subject to arrangements. Without permission, even without permission, one cannot Feel free to leave Tianying.

Not only that, but you also have to write a report on your daily schedule, down to the smallest details, even if you are dating your girlfriend, you have to report it.The Ministry of Defense will arrange people to monitor near the residence. The euphemistic name is to prevent the ghost master from being affected by the power of evil spirits to avoid harming innocent people. In fact, it is a kind of strict control.

You spend your life killing evil spirits, but your income is fixed, and you lose personal freedom. Over time, you will easily feel tired and your motivation will drop sharply. You will be like a working machine every day, and you never know when you will be swallowed up by the power of evil spirits. And die...

In a life of darkness, it would be better to be a folk ghost controller and take orders everywhere.

Yan Yi was still awake and immediately replied to the message.

【That's such a pity.Do you really want to stop giving it a second thought?The Ministry of Defense has a secret formula, according to which potions are prepared to offset the damage caused by the evil ghost's power to the body.You should have also discovered that excessive use can cause harm to the body.The ghost directly consumes the life of the contractor. If you continue, you will die. 】

Yan Yi didn't give up and tried to persuade him to stay.

[Although the success rate is only 50.00%, the failed medicine will not affect the body, and at most it will be a waste of materials.But don’t worry, we have relevant subsidies every month, and ghost controllers only need to spend a very small part, about [-]%. 】

Santa Karina wakes up the Black Book and feeds it a little blood.

"What is the success rate of your method?"

[Of course it’s [-]%.The official ghost controller's words were all deceptive. Maybe she didn't know it herself. The medicine that failed to be prepared had no side effects at first glance, but drinking too much could easily lead to a nervous breakdown.The dead official ghost master finally turned into a cold number and was quickly forgotten.Do you want to be one of them?Do you know how much it costs to prepare [-]% of the medicine?I can’t make it without tens of thousands of dollars a month. 】

"It's better to be an idler and feel comfortable."

The words of the Black Book made Santa Karina more determined to refuse.She had made up her mind and refused to continue persuading her. She happened to have work on hand and hurriedly got off the assembly line.

The deliveryman took them and the coffin to the designated location on the map - a dense forest with lush vegetation.

The dense branches and leaves blocked the sky and the sun, blocking out the weak moonlight. The avenue was pitch dark, and you couldn't see your fingers.Fortunately, the road is wide enough and the car can drive all the way to the end.Santa Karina is not strong enough to move a coffin weighing several hundred kilograms, so transportation is a mandatory requirement.

At the end of the dense forest is a rectangular stone monument more than ten meters high. Behind the stone monument is Ningchuan Mountain, the third highest mountain in Tianying.This mountain was the most popular place for practitioners in the past. It has a quiet environment, pure ground, and crystal clear water at the bottom of the mountain. It is suitable for use as ingredients for refining medicine and cleansing away filth.

Those are all legends and may not be true, but the legend of the rectangular stone tablet is not groundless.The entrance to the underground palace is under the stone tablet. You need to type a few words on the stone tablet to trigger the switch.

Ye Shiyu still remembers which words they are. They have no rules and are meaningless when combined. They are equivalent to the strings of password locks.

The touched text lit up, the ground beneath his feet began to shake, and there was a heavy sound of friction and movement.There is a piece of grassland directly in front of the stone monument. The grass above is lifted from the middle and torn, revealing a rectangular entrance three meters long and one meter wide.

The dark passage extends underground, with a smooth slope in the middle and stairs of even height on both sides. You can't see the bottom at a glance.A dull, dry breath of dust hit her cheeks. The tip of Santa Karina's nose itched and she almost sneezed.

"Ye Shiyu, isn't the slope used to transport coffins?"

"Exactly. The wooden coffin is too heavy. Considering the difficulty of carrying it, the craftsmen who built the underground palace specially made a slope that allows the coffin to slide down by itself. There is also a device for dragging the coffin underneath. I wonder if no one has used it for so many years. It won't start. If we're lucky and the device breaks, we'll have to push it ourselves."

A cold wind blew in the underground palace. Wei Xin stood nearby and did not dare to go down. He took two steps back, pretending to be calm on his face, but his body was shaking like chaff.

"Are there a lot of... corpses or something inside?"

"At least there must be thousands of skeletons."

Ye Shiyu answered with a smile.

"Thousands..."

Very scary numbers.The endurance limit of ordinary people does not exceed two digits, but in the underground palace, it can reach as high as four digits, which is enough to scare people away.

Santa Karina knew she had to go down, and the attitude of the other two was that love or not, they were ordinary people and it might be safer to stay up there.

"Wei Xin, why don't you stay up there with this little brother, and I'll go down with Ye Shiyu. The situation in the underground palace is dangerous, and I didn't tell the forensic doctor clearly what's going on inside. For the sake of your safety, I'd better not follow you. .”

Someone gave Wei Xin what he wanted, so he immediately hid in the cab of the truck and took out a charm from his pocket, as if doing so would prevent the invasion of evil spirits.

The delivery boy was not brave enough, so he only helped push the coffin down, then immediately slipped back into the truck and locked the doors and windows.

Ordinary lights could not illuminate the entrance to the underground palace. Ye Shiyu lit her lantern and walked in front to open the way, with Santa Karina following closely behind.Unknown things are sleeping in the boundless darkness, uneasy emotions are brewing in the heart, and the suffocating silence is easily associated with death.

Santa Karina stepped forward and took Ye Shiyu's cold hand, holding it tightly.

282. Reconciliation

"Why, are you afraid too?"

Ye Shiyu shook Santa Karina's hand back and slowed down.

The blue candle flame in the lantern swayed in the wind, as if it would go out at any moment.Extinguishing candles in a weird place like the underground palace is often an ominous sign, and ferocious monsters are bound to appear next.

Countless tomb-robbery novels have detailed plots related to the underground palace. Santa Karina has read not only [-] but also [-] or [-] novels. Every time she sees the part about exploring the underground palace, she always leaves it until daytime to continue.

She has a fear of the underground world, which comes from instinct.

Going underground is inseparable from death. After death, people must be buried in the soil.As long as you imagine that your body is surrounded by solid soil, you can't see the light outside, you can't breathe air, and you can't move your limbs, your heart will start to tremble non-stop.

"No. There is only one thing I fear most - poverty. I have had enough of the painful experience of being knocked on the door in the middle of the night to collect debts, and being so scared that I hid under the bed and dared not speak out. Going to the underground palace is not that scary."

This is the memory of the original owner, and Santa Karina behaves calmly.Darkness is the best cover, just like no one can see Wei Xin's teeth and lips trembling.

"How long until we get down there?"

"Five more minutes. A Feng Shui master in the early Ming Dynasty said that the closer the Zhensha Underground Palace is to the ground, the smaller the impact of the earth's veins on it. It is recommended to build it deeper, and the vertical height from the ground to the bottom should be changed from the originally planned 5 meters to 20 meters. .”

"Are you familiar with this place?"

"I came here several times after my death, as a ghost to say goodbye to some old friends who were suppressed. Many people who worked in the palace did not die well. Emperor Yongle was suspicious by nature and had a surly temperament. Those who were executed by him remained resentful after death. , turning into evil spirits and causing chaos.

The emperor had no choice but to find folk Feng Shui masters to suppress it. Those Feng Shui masters were equivalent to today's ghost controllers. They used more powerful ghosts to eliminate the ghosts in the palace, then put the corpse into a coffin, nailed seven soul-suppressing nails, and sent it to the emperor. Go to this palace of Zhensha and seal it.I was too ignorant at that time, and even though I knew they were wronged, I could only watch helplessly. "

There was regret in Ye Shiyu's tone.

As I walked down the last step, I saw the coffin sliding down to the bottom and onto the metal track.The coffin was intact, and the corpse inside became calm and no longer continued to knock on the coffin, making a terrifying noise.

The underground palace is a regular rectangular structure, with many spaces on each side that look like medicine shop cabinets.Each space corresponds to a sealed corpse.

Some corpses were placed in coffins, some of which were slightly shabby, just wrapped in a tattered straw mat and left there casually.The densely packed corpses and coffins seemed like the scene of some kind of evil ritual.

"Fortunately we didn't ask Wei Xin to follow, otherwise she would have been so scared that she would have had nightmares for several nights in a row."

St. Carolina followed the steps taught to the forensic doctor and used her own blood to draw talismans on the coffin. Finally, she used a device with pulleys to move the coffin to the empty position relying on the metal track, and completed the placement in one go.

The underground palace is filled with pure Yin energy, which can suppress all restless evil things.They stood next to the coffin and waited for a while. When they found that there was no movement inside, they returned along the same path.

After settling this matter, the sky in the east has brightened slightly.

The dark and gloomy-looking funeral parlor became less scary. It looked like an ordinary building.Everyone was exhausted and had no intention of thinking about anything else. They just wanted to go home and sleep first.

Passing by the convenience store at the entrance of the community, Santa Karina bought two cocktails for the first time in a long time.Cocktails have low alcohol content, but drinking them will warm your body. Alcohol will make you tipsy, making you drowsy, easily promoting sleep, and incidentally improving your sleep quality.

The glass display window of the convenience store reflected her current appearance.

It was no different from a dead person lying in a coffin. His face was a bit darker than the gray on the wall. The wounds on his body ached faintly. The oozing blood stuck to his shirt. Any movement was torture.

There was a faint smell of blood in his mouth, and the consequences of excessive use of the evil ghost's power gradually became apparent.

She was a person who forced herself to exercise regularly in order to save money for medical treatment. She was so weak that it was difficult to walk. She was so out of breath when she climbed from the first floor to the fifth floor that she almost couldn't hold the keys steadily.

As soon as the person entered the door, he fell down on the sofa and could hardly get up. The sunlight outside the sliding glass door of the balcony shone on his body and he felt inexplicably uncomfortable. Santa Karina quickly closed the curtains, and the living room suddenly became dark, with a few traces of light remaining in the air. The warmth of the sun.

"It's terrible... I feel like I'm going to turn into a vampire."

Normal people would not like to hide in places without sunlight, and the sunlight in the morning is not particularly strong.Usually the first thing I do when I get up is go to the balcony to take a deep breath, stretch my limbs, and spread out the bedding to be dried in the sun.

She wasn't in the mood to do that today, she just wanted to hide in her room.

The shirt was soaked with blood from repeated spills. Fortunately, the color was dark and others could not see the mottled blood stains on it. Otherwise, she might be regarded as a mentally ill patient with a tendency to self-harm.

"I just caught one ghost now, the remaining four have to be found quickly."

Suddenly, he coughed violently, and a mouthful of thick blood came out of his mouth.With a tight pain in her chest and black steam coming out of her blood, Santa Karina did not dare to continue thinking about it. The fear of death was like a rising tide that would soon overwhelm her brain.

She turned on her computer and logged into the commissioned release section of the "Supernatural Recovery" website, looking for new prey.Ye Shiyu appeared from behind and wrapped his arms around her body with skillful movements.

"What's the rush? Let's do some things to do during the intermission first. I've helped you so much before and after, so it's time to get some rewards. You promised me the reconciliation before, so you won't find excuses to shirk it anymore, right?"

The Love Letter Ghost sat on her lap blatantly, wearing a nightgown she bought while shopping.

The nightgowns in that store are simple, thin and sexy, with less fabric and transparency. You can see your body curves when you put them on, which is almost like wearing nothing at all.

It would be okay to wear underwear with the nightgown lowered, but if it is hollow...

"How long have we known each other?"

Santa Karina stared at the face that was almost touching her, thinking hard about the words to reject her.After all, it's too fast to get on base before a relationship has developed.

And still with ghosts.

Ye Shiyu held her face and rubbed it with his body.

"It has nothing to do with the length of time. It is basically impossible for girls in our era to have the qualifications for free love. It is all dictated by parents and the matchmaker. Find a well-matched person to marry. How to talk about dating time? There is no need to be so rigid and boring. Based on the data, feelings can be gradually cultivated through getting along in the future.”

Fingers circled around the collarbone and quickly unbuttoned a few buttons. The two of them were one step closer to being honest with each other.

"Hey……"

Santa Karina wanted to push her away, but found that her body was unable to move like it was the first time they met.

Then, his body broke away from the control of his brain and he walked into the bedroom with Ye Shiyu, closed the curtains, washed his hands, cut his nails and tied his hair all at once.

These are not spontaneous actions.

"I've never seen a ghost like you..."

For the first time, Santa Karina felt her body losing control of itself.

"I haven't showered yet."

Santa Karina reminded.

"Taking a shower? You've known me for so long, do you think I care whether you have the original scent or the artificial scent after cleaning?"

"What you said is so strange...I mean the smell of sweat."

Santa Karina couldn't help but complain.

And in addition to sweat, there were also all kinds of indescribable smells that she was exposed to after going to the underground palace.For example, the smell of dust, the smell of ghosts, and the smell of corpses in the underground palace has not started for a long time.

The funeral parlor has been abandoned for so long, and it doesn't taste very good.

"You humans are so particular. I am already a ghost and have forgotten this. It is impossible for you to take a bath now. The arrow is on the string and I have to shoot. I have to reconcile with you. However, I can help you clean your body. ~"

Speaking of this, Ye Shiyu's eyes shot out a gleam of light.

Santa Karina had a very bad feeling that the other party would strip her clean.

It is a very serious reason to take off your clothes when taking a shower.

"Hey, don't mess around."

"It's settled."

Ye Shiyu's words were a bit perfunctory, but he was quite serious about what he was doing.

She got a tub from the bathroom, filled it with hot water, put a wet towel in it, and started wiping Santa Karina.

When touched by the warm and steaming water, the skin wiped by the wet towel felt not only the normal warmth, but also a numb and itchy electric feeling.

"Thank you."

Santa Karina saw that Ye Shiyu was so serious about his work and did not deliberately tease her, so she sincerely thanked him.

However, she also had a feeling that it was like a chef preparing her ingredients and having to clean them first.

"You're welcome."

Ye Shiyu accepted Santa Kalina's thanks as a matter of course, but as soon as her hand touched Santa Kalina's eyes, her eyes were covered with something like black cloth, and she could not see anything.

"What did you do? Why can't I see anything?"

"Do you still remember the ghost eyes from before? At that time, I lent you to see ghosts in oil paintings. Now, your eyes belong to me. So, if I want you to see it, you can see it. I don't want to If you see, you can’t see anything.”

Ye Shiyu explained.

However, this explanation didn't work. Saint Karina was deprived of one of her five senses and would not have been very comfortable.

A normal person would even panic and yell at this time.

However, Santa Karina believed that Ye Shiyu would not hurt herself. She probably wanted to play some game with herself.
