Heavenly Official Sends Evil

Chapter 779 Friendly Neighbors

Apartment 305.

Hao Zuoren carefully plucked two leaves from the potted plant and threw them into the freshly boiled hot water.

In a nightmare apartment where supplies are scarce but you won't starve to death, soaking potted plants in water is a rare enjoyment. Even so, you have to drink some of it sparingly, after all, the number of leaves on the potted plants is limited.

He was in a good mood today, so he used one more leaf.

Unlike other floors, the atmosphere on the third floor is very harmonious. Neighbors respect each other and help each other. There are not so many bloody fights.

When the rent collectors are active during the day, they hide at home. When the rent collectors do not appear at night, they gather in a room and relieve the depression in their nightmares through some activities.

As for the time of action, it is of course when day and night change.

During the last event, a new resident who had just moved in said to his neighbors in all seriousness, “There’s a ghost in the apartment!”

After hearing this, the residents on the third floor all laughed out loud.

Is there a ghost in the apartment?
This is a nightmare. What the hell are ghosts?
Are there any rent collectors who wander around outside during the day and can easily take people's lives that are scary?

Is that unspeakable thing in Apartment 303 scary?

Are neighbors like these scary?

The neighbors were amused by this remark, and took advantage of their rare joy to tie up the newlywed, first pulling out his fingernails and toenails, then chopping off his fingers and toes, and stuffing all these things into the newlywed's mouth...

This is the reason why the third floor is harmonious.

Whenever someone dies in the apartment, a new person will move in after a day or two. The old residents will unite and torture and kill the new person in order to obtain nightmare coins.

But this nightmare coin is not used to pay rent, because there is always one person short here, so when a room is about to be rented out, the old residents will vacate the room.

The saved nightmare coins can be exchanged for the "Blessing of Sleep God" in Room 9, allowing you to have a luxurious and safe sleep.

After a safe sleep, hunger, sleepiness, anxiety... all negative states will be refreshed.

This is also one of the reasons why the neighborhood on the third floor is so harmonious. Everyone’s mental state is not easily lost, so they can naturally cooperate.

Soon, the potted tea was ready.

Hao Zuoren took a small sip and it tasted bitter, sour, astringent, and a little numb in his mouth.

“What a great tea!”

He drank the tea in one gulp and suddenly started coughing painfully, as if something was stuck in his throat.

Hao Zuoren took great effort to spit the stuff into the cup.

It turned out to be a fresh human eyeball!

The lonely eyeball seemed to be alive, staring at Hao Zuoren at the bottom of the cup. He could even see a hint of doubt in the eyeball!

This is the new guy's eyeball!

The reason why Hao Zuoren was so sure was that he dug out the eyeball with his own hands.

But how did this eyeball appear here?

Hao Zuoren felt vaguely uneasy. He flushed his eyeballs into the toilet and wandered around the room in a daze, thinking about the newcomer's words.

"There's a ghost in the apartment!"

"Screw it, as long as you don't default on rent, the apartment is perfectly safe."

Hao Zuoren felt a little nervous and went to the bathroom to wash his face.

He turned on the faucet, scooped up a handful of water with both hands, splashed it on his face and rubbed it. This was his daily face-washing routine.

"Ah!"

After just two rubs, Hao Zuoren screamed.

He was so scared that he almost fell to the ground. His face was covered in blood and had several scratches. His eyelids were cracked!

Hao Zuoren opened his hands to check, and saw that his hands were bright red, and there were a few nails on the palms! He had just scooped up a handful of clear water, but when it splashed on his face, it turned into warm blood, mixed with the nails that Hao Zuoren had pulled off from the hands of the bride.

Hao Zuoren swallowed his saliva.

I dare not wash my face anymore.

His heart was filled with anxiety.

Although this building was a nightmare, at least the apartment was safe, but now this only shelter is no longer safe.

He is not afraid of death. Even if he dies in a nightmare, he will be reborn in a new apartment in a few days.

But he was afraid that he would not be able to return to the comfortable third floor, and that he would not die, but would become a wronged ghost and wander around the third floor like the newcomer they had just killed.

"That's impossible. It must be an illusion. Maybe I haven't slept for too long and I'm tired and hallucinating."

Hao Zuoren sat on the sofa, covering his forehead with one hand and letting the other hand hang down, trying to think calmly for a while.

Then he held the other hand with his lowered hand.

The hand that reached into his palm was very short, one end was still very wet, and a little prickly. No, this hand...

No fingers!

"Ah, ah!!!"

Hao Zuoren's screams echoed in the apartment.

After that, Hao Zuoren's good days were over. Horrible ghosts and monsters haunted him. Those monsters would only come to him when he relaxed, making him always tense.

The same goes for everyone else on the third floor. All of them are haunted by wronged spirits, and if they aren’t careful they’ll get horrible wounds on their bodies.

They were almost driven crazy by the ghosts that haunted them.

At this moment, the third floor was not as comfortable as the other floors, and it was even the most terrifying floor they had ever experienced.

At this moment, a Taoist priest with brilliant light appeared.

……

"Master Yun, you are truly a god!"

In the corridor on the third floor, Wu Xian and Ling Ji sat on small stools, listening to Hao Zuoren bragging about the Taoist priest as if they were listening to a storytelling:
"After the Taoist priest came to the third floor, he first used his divine power to deal with the strange things in 303, then used his thunderbolt magic to kill the rent collector, and finally used his profound Taoist magic to help us resolve the disaster of being haunted by ghosts."

"After that, Taoist Master Yun pasted talismans on our door and taught us to chant sutras and meditate. We are no longer afraid of seeing ghosts, and even the fatigue from not eating or sleeping has been alleviated a lot!"

"He is our great benefactor. Without him, we would have been driven crazy!"

"Master Yun said that in ten days at most, our hard times will be over. He asked us to be kind to those who come down from the upper floors and to inform you that Master Yun has come downstairs."

The Taoist Master Yun mentioned by Hao Zuo should be his beloved Yun Tianshu. He was also in this building and woke up on the third floor, and reached the second floor two steps faster than him.

Wu Xian looked at Ling Ji with a little surprise.

"This Taoist priest is really extraordinary. Everyone can catch ghosts and exorcise evil spirits, but in just one or two days, he can make these indigenous people meditate and chant scriptures. This brainwashing ability is really beyond my reach."

Lingji chuckled, but no one knew what she was laughing at.

"Yes, yes, Taoist Master Yun is very powerful." Hao Zuoren stood up. "In the nightmare, there is a shortage of supplies. We have nothing to offer you. We can only provide massage services for you two. Our massage techniques are very good. They can loosen up the bones, activate blood circulation and remove blood stasis..."

"Really?" Lingji's eyes lit up, "I am indeed a little tired."

She stood up and stretched. Hao Zuoren was so amazed by her exquisite body curves that he quickly pulled Lingji into the house.

Wu Xian shook his head, stood up and leaned on the windowsill, trying to see the scenery outside the window through the fog.

Not long after, many screams were heard from the room, and after a while, the apartment became quiet again.

Lingji changed into clean clothes and came out with a few nightmare coins in her hand.
