Chapter 7
"Water Official, Outer God..."
Seeing the different prefixes of the statues, Wu Xian realized that these statues must have specific classifications and functions; it's just a pity that the statues he has seen now are too few to make an accurate judgment.
There is no incense burner in front of the Multi-Treasure Tathagata Statue, which means that one cannot obtain benefits here by worshipping the god, but it must be useful.
Wu Xian pondered for a moment, then found some sundries from other rooms to cover up this statue, so that even if someone came to this room, they wouldn't be able to discover this Outer God statue without searching carefully.
The second and third floors of the hostel, exploration completed!
Wu Xian finally went down to the first floor and happened to run into Shi Ji walking back.
He was holding his flank, his expression was unusually ugly, and he was carrying a large bag of things; just as Wu Xian was about to ask about his condition, he instead cared about Wu Xian first.
Wu Xian followed the guidance of 'Mr. Wang' and came to the Fuxin Huayuan residential area behind the hostel.
I don't know if it was an illusion, but the things Shi Ji was carrying just now...
Mr. Wang finally couldn't hold it anymore.
"Mr. Wu, your face is so pale; did something happen?"
After searching for a while, a ghostly voice came from the refrigerator.
"What did you say?!"
He flipped through a few more photos, focusing on admiring his beautiful wife, and finally found a photo with bare feet, looked at it for a while before putting it down with satisfaction.
"Mr. Wang's wife is that hanging ghost who attacked me!"
Shi Ji raised the bag in his hand and smiled:
"Tsk tsk, so that's what 'eat you for a lifetime' means."
I saw that the mobile phone album was full of Liu Juan's selfies while eating.
After the man saw Wu Xian, his face changed slightly, and he retreated back into the dark unit building.
"It's uncertain when the evil ghost will come to kill, but if there's nothing to eat, people will really die."
"Oh, I found some food; I'm a bit stupid, and I can't do complicated things, but my cooking skills are not bad, so I'll make something hot for everyone."
"She might have done it to vent her resentment, or perhaps because she could still benefit from keeping your corpse, so she hid your corpse in the refrigerator."
Wen Chao and the other rested for a while and continued their visits.
The social order in the Fudi had long since completely collapsed, but judging from the surrounding traces, there should still be a small number of people living here, but the number is very small.
Suddenly Wu Xian shivered and coughed violently; his body clearly felt uncomfortable, and the drop in body temperature had brought his body to the edge of danger.
Wu Xian found a thick piece of clothing to put on, sat on a chair to charge his phone, and sat in front of the refrigerator to narrate.
"Mr. Wang, you are not honest."
"Juan'er and I met that winter; at that time she..."
Wu Xian waved his hand: "I'm fine, you are..."
Wu Xian scoffed at this.
Wu Xian's words made Mr. Wang feel offended; he shouted angrily, and Wu Xian's body temperature drop rate accelerated suddenly, and his body even started to shake.
Wu Xian stepped into Room 902; this was Mr. Wang's home.
"I hope you can calm down; if I am cursed to death, no one will help you find the key."
"Freezer?"
It seems very fishy, very smelly!
"What are you still waiting for? Hurry up and open this coffin and let me out; as long as I get out, I will lift the curse for you, and your body temperature will warm up."
"Later, you died."
Speaking of this, the mobile phone had already been charged; Wu Xian used the same trick to crack the password, flipped through it twice, opened the album, and his eyes widened.
During the process of going upstairs, Wu Xian found that the situation here was very similar to the second and third floors of the hostel; most of the doors on the road were damaged, and the interior was damaged and faded.
He picked up a diary from the ground, which was filled with large and small handwriting; all the handwriting had only one sentence.
Every meal of hers was eaten in front of the open refrigerator door, and the staple food was cooked meat, as if she were sharing food with her late husband.
He stared at the electric meter cabinet for a while and finally determined that only 902 in this unit was using electricity.
Wu Xian followed the feeling of coldness, stopped at the entrance of a unit, and looked up.
Wu Xian laughed; the freezer was not locked; it seems that this Mr. Wang, besides imposing a curse to make Wu Xian help open the door, did not have the ability to observe and interfere with the outside world.
The huge room was dilapidated; the furniture on the ground was pushed over, and sundries like takeout boxes and milk tea bottles were piled everywhere; the leftovers in the meal boxes were rotting and stinking, and a freezer was placed in the corner.
As soon as Wu Xian entered the residential area, he saw Wen Chao and Fang Zhi running out of a unit building in a sorry state, and a sallow-faced man was scolding the two with a kitchen knife.
Obviously, Mr. Wang was in that freezer.
"Friend, I think..."
Knowing this, Wu Xian was even less in a hurry.
He kicked the sundries, pretending to be seriously looking for the key, and asked slowly: "Can I ask, why were you locked in the freezer?"
But Wu Xian still wasn't in a hurry to let him out, but continued to search in the room, looking for useful information in the mess; this information would allow him to confirm how to act next.
Mr. Wang was stunned for a moment, as if shocked, and then told Wu Xian a story.
While talking, he flipped through another mobile phone, which was pasted with colored diamonds; it should be the hostess's.
"This married woman looks a bit familiar."
"That Mr. Wang should be buried here."
"Ah, so this is a freezer."
Wen Chao looked helpless; when had he ever received such treatment?
Wu Xian chatted with them for a few words before knowing that they wanted to obtain information about the Fudi through survivors, but it didn't seem to be going smoothly now.
"Get out! You will kill me; if you come again, I will kill you!"
"In my opinion, the story is like this: you were originally engaged in some profession that dies when exposed to light; Liu Juan might also be one of the victims; she caught your handle and threatened you to marry her and pay for her high consumption."
It seems that in the Fudi, the door is a very important thing; only an intact door can block the invasion of evil entities.
'It was you who made me like this; you can't run away; I want to eat you for a lifetime!!!'
"Is this ultimate hatred, or twisted love?"
The two passed by each other, and Wu Xian suddenly stopped.
The guidance of the coldness is flat; there is no way to tell Wu Xian which floor he is on, and this building has seventeen floors, with two rooms on each floor; just searching floor by floor would waste a lot of time.
Hearing him say this, Wu Xian really felt a bit hungry, so he looked forward to tonight's dinner.
Outside the hostel, there was nothing but gray mist; the sunlight barely fell to the ground, and the surroundings were gloomy.
This building has an elevator, but Wu Xian still chose to walk upstairs.
Fortunately, the power system of the Fudi is still normal; Mr. Wang should be locked in the refrigerator, so the refrigerator must be consuming electricity.
Wu Xian answered casually: "Your coffin is locked; I am looking for the key."
"On the surface, you are a husband and wife relationship, but in reality, it is similar to a master-servant relationship, so in all your photos, it is your wife who is smiling, not you."
Wu Xian flipped through the ground and picked up a photo; this was a photo of the couple; in the photo, the beautiful wife had a bright smile, while the plain-looking husband had a worried face, and his eyebrows had become an eight-character shape.
"Juan'er and I were very loving; she once said she wanted to be with me for a lifetime; maybe it was because she loved me too much that she couldn't accept my departure and kept me in the freezer, so it was equivalent to me accompanying her."
Creak...
Mr. Wang sighed: "Sigh... Juan'er, why are you like this... sigh, hurry up and find the key; find the key and let me out."
So Wu Xian didn't go upstairs, but opened the door of the electric meter cabinet downstairs.
But for some reason.
The later the photos, the less of Mr. Wang's body was in the open freezer.
