Chapter 249

After the conversation ended, Li Yi did not choose to stay in the same room as Wang Chuan. Although this person was very enthusiastic and revealed a lot of information, he had his own secrets, so he chose an unoccupied room to move into by himself.

And after moving into the second floor of the Ghost Post Office, he was also thinking about one thing.

Whether to continue to choose to deliver the third letter to the third floor, or to continue to stay on the second floor.

Time passed very quickly.

In the blink of an eye, it was time for the lights to go out at night.

In the room on the second floor, Li Yi also heard the heavy footsteps coming from the corridor outside. Obviously, that ghost would not only wander on the first floor, but would also appear on the second floor. Besides that, he also heard some strange sounds. Those sounds seemed to come from upstairs. At first, they were a bit blurry, but later he recognized them.

It seemed someone was singing.

Who is singing in the Ghost Post Office late at night? Are the messengers upstairs so leisurely?

Or is it that the one singing is not a person at all, but possibly an evil ghost?

After Li Yi noted these abnormalities and confirmed that there was no danger in his room, he stopped paying attention.

He is not continuing to cultivate now, because he has already broken through to the Spirit Perception Realm, and the nutrient solution he brought has also been exhausted. In the situation where there are no resources in his hands, the effect of continuing to cultivate is not obvious. It is better to seriously think about how to survive the remaining two months or so.

The first night on the second floor passed quickly.

As the lights in the room went out and the lights in the corridor outside turned on, a new day began.

Li Yi did not leave the room, because he has no letter delivery mission now, and he doesn't want to go out for a stroll. In this world, he has no relatives and no friends, so it is better to hide in the Ghost Post Office to avoid encountering supernatural events. And he doesn't need to worry about food and drink; he consumes very little when he is not cultivating.

It was just that less than half an hour after dawn, his door was knocked on.

"Is Li Yi there? It's me, Guo You." A familiar voice came from outside the door.

In the dim room, Li Yi slowly opened his eyes, his gaze slightly bright, which was particularly eye-catching. But soon, the brightness in his eyes quickly dimmed, becoming the same as an ordinary person. This was a technique he mastered last night. As long as he used the guidance technique to transfer the cosmic energy in his eyes to other places, his eyes would not reveal anything extraordinary.

Coupled with the control of Qi and blood of a martial artist in the Meridian Cultivation Realm and the restraint of his aura, he can now completely hide his identity without being seen through.

"Is there something you want from me?" Li Yi thought for a while, but still opened the door.

As soon as the door opened.

Guo You outside said somewhat impatiently, "Wang Chuan's third letter has appeared, a few days earlier than the estimated time. Do you want to come over and take a look?"

"Has the third letter appeared so quickly?" Li Yi was also a bit surprised, but out of curiosity, he decided to go and take a look.

Very quickly.

The few people from yesterday gathered together again. Besides that, there were three more strangers. However, being able to appear here, they must also be messengers on the second floor, and it looked like they had already moved in yesterday, but they just didn't choose to show their faces. But it seemed they also knew Wang Chuan.

After all, Wang Chuan is an old man on the second floor.

"The letter delivery mission has appeared. The mission deadline is ten days. The mission location is in a private collection museum in Zhongning City. The recipient... the ghost in the collection museum." Wang Chuan narrowed his eyes at this moment, his expression a bit solemn, "This mission is actually to deliver the letter to the hands of a ghost. The difficulty is not small."

"However, the mission requirements are relatively loose. At least one messenger from the second floor needs to participate. Messengers who want to participate only need to touch the letter. Except for the deadline, there are almost no requirements, which is very rare in the past."

"There are few requirements for delivering the letter, plenty of time, and a clear location. Obviously, the difficulty must not be small. Wang Chuan, your third letter mission this time is not good at all." A messenger on the second floor frowned and said, "This is the first mission that clearly states that the letter must be delivered to the hands of a ghost."

"It is normal for supernatural events to exist in letter delivery missions, but it does not mean that I have to come into contact with ghosts. And this time it is so direct, so I refuse this third letter mission. I don't want to take this risk. After all, I have successfully delivered a letter on the second floor, and the difficulty is not great. I'd better take it slowly."

Another messenger on the second floor shook his head and gave up directly.

After all, this is not his own letter delivery mission, so he can refuse.

Seeing this, Wang Chuan would not force it, but just asked, "What about you? Does anyone want to take this letter?"

His gaze looked at the others again.

However, most people were thinking and hesitating. This matter must be thought through clearly; one cannot make decisions randomly.

"Delivering the letter to the hands of a ghost is very difficult for ordinary people, but it may not be for me. With my speed and reaction ability, I can complete the letter delivery mission within one second. It's just... the only thing to consider is the survival problem. If I am targeted by a ghost after successfully delivering the letter, I will definitely die miserably. After all, I don't have the power to confront evil ghosts."

"If someone can help me block the evil ghost and buy me time to light the letter paper and escape back to the Ghost Post Office, then this letter delivery mission still has a good chance."

Li Yi was calculating in his heart, and then he looked at the woman named Liu Qingqing.

The only ghost controller here is her. Only she has the ability to block evil ghosts. If he joins forces with her, the success rate of delivering the letter this time is very high.

"If this Liu Qingqing is willing to participate in the letter delivery mission, I can still consider it. If she refuses, then I don't even have a reason to take the risk." Li Yi shook his head secretly in his heart.

The reason why he wants to take the risk and try is because he is unwilling to stay on the second floor and deliver letters continuously. After all, he himself has a probability of encountering ghosts when completing letter delivery missions, and at that time, without teammates, he would definitely die if targeted by a ghost.

After everyone was silent for about a few minutes, Wang Chuan smiled at this moment and said, "If none of you want to deliver this letter, then there is no way. Only I can deliver it myself. I have long seen through life and death. After all, after entering the Ghost Post Office, I don't know how long I can live. I just want to say one last thing: if I can't come back this time, if you have the conditions, remember to take care of my family."

Saying that, he took the third letter and prepared to set off.

"Wait."

Suddenly, at this time, Liu Qingqing spoke, "I just thought about it. With your ability, going to deliver the third letter is no different from seeking death. On this second floor, I am the only one with the best chance of successfully delivering the letter, because only a ghost controller can block the attack of an evil ghost and is qualified to come into contact with an evil ghost. Since the opportunity is in front of me, I have no reason to give up."

"So, Wang Chuan, give me the letter."

She reached out directly to ask for this third letter.

"Are you sure?" Wang Chuan said.

"I am sure. I said before that I don't have much time and cannot keep wasting it in the Ghost Post Office. I want to walk out of the Ghost Post Office, get rid of the curse, and then find a way to control evil ghosts, instead of working for the Ghost Post Office here and wasting time." Liu Qingqing also had her own reasons, and the reasons were very sufficient.

Wang Chuan thought for a while, but still handed over the letter. He said, "It is not easy for you to complete the letter delivery mission alone. It is best to have companions. Otherwise, even if you have the ability to confront evil ghosts, you may not necessarily find the opportunity to deliver the letter."

"Count me in." Just at this time, Li Yi, who had been silent for a long while, suddenly spoke.

He made a decision at this moment.

Since this only ghost controller wants to participate, then Li Yi has no reason to avoid it. If he doesn't borrow the supernatural power of this Liu Qingqing, then the probability of him wanting to survive later must be very low. On the contrary, as long as the letter delivery is successful this time, then he can easily wait until the cross-dimensional gate opens again.

It is worth a gamble no matter what.

"You? An ordinary messenger from the first floor wants to deliver the third letter on the second floor. Are you sure you are not joking? Although it is a good thing to be in a hurry to go upstairs and get rid of the curse, participating in it is no different from seeking death. I advise you to roll to the side." At this time, a messenger on the second floor sneered and mocked unceremoniously.

It is not that he is arrogant, but in front of their old messengers, newcomers like Li Yi and Guo You indeed have no qualifications to speak.

"Li Yi, do you want to participate too?" Liu Qingqing looked at him, her eyes flickering slightly.

"Can't I?" Li Yi said.

Liu Qingqing suddenly laughed, "There is nothing that cannot be done. If you want to participate in this letter delivery mission, I welcome it."

"Liu Qingqing, you want such a greenhorn? Aren't you afraid that he will drag you down and kill you in the letter delivery mission?" That messenger said bluntly.

Li Yi glanced at him and said, "How did you survive until now with such a stinky mouth? I didn't provoke you, but you are good, holding onto me and not letting go. If you want to seek death, just say it directly. I don't mind sending you on your way. If you don't dare to deliver this third letter yourself, then roll further away. Don't bark like a dog here."

"What did you say?" That messenger was suddenly furious.

"I said you are barking like a dog." Li Yi said.

"I think you don't want to live anymore. Do you believe I will make you unable to walk out of this Ghost Post Office?" That messenger stared at Li Yi, his eyes very cold.

People who deliver letters here have all experienced life and death, and there is no legal restraint. If they are forced into a corner, they really dare to kill people.

"I don't believe it. If you have any means, you can use them and try. Don't just move your lips there." Li Yi was too lazy to pay attention. He is just an ordinary person, not a ghost controller, so there is no need to take him to heart at all.

Even if this guy took out a gun, he wouldn't be worried.

"Du Ming, calm down. It's all for delivering letters, and it's all for survival. There's no need to have a dispute." Wang Chuan advised at this moment.

But this second-floor messenger named Du Ming did not listen. He was already under great mental pressure after being involved in the curse of the Ghost Post Office. Now that he was retorted by Li Yi a few times, he was immediately angry and revealed murderous intent. He did not respond to Wang Chuan, but took out a short stick that looked like a rolling pin from his pocket.

That rolling pin was old and cracked, and there were some dried blood stains on it, as if it could collapse and break at any time.

"Supernatural item?" As soon as this thing was taken out, Wang Chuan and Liu Qingqing's expressions changed suddenly.

They didn't expect that this Du Ming actually hid a supernatural item in his hand.

"Is that a supernatural item?" Li Yi stared at the old and cracked short stick and looked at it. He indeed felt a cold aura.

That aura was very similar to an evil ghost.

"What is the use of that thing? Did you take it out to prepare to roll noodles for me?" Li Yi said with a calm expression, not afraid at all, but instead wanted to take the opportunity to get some useful information.

Because, the moment the other party took this thing out, it no longer belonged to him. Now it is just being kept temporarily.

Du Ming sneered, "What is the use? This thing can repel evil ghosts. If an ordinary person is hit by a stick, they will fall into a coma directly. As for how long the coma will last... I think it will be very difficult to wake up again in a lifetime. Didn't you want to see what means I have? Now I will let you see it properly."

After speaking, he held the short stick and rushed towards Li Yi.

Under normal circumstances, one would really have to feel afraid at this moment, because it is very difficult to dodge the other party's stick.

It is a pity that the person he met is Li Yi.

An evolutionist of the Spirit Perception Realm, and also a martial artist of the Meridian Cultivation Realm.
