Oops, something seems to be wrong with my love life

Li Tao lit a lighter here, and the dancing flame instantly illuminated the surroundings.

The temperature was very low. Li Tao stood there without moving for two minutes and felt his body becoming stiff.

The air was filled with a strong smell of disinfectant. Li Tao was afraid that the fire and the volatile alcohol might produce some reaction, so he prayed secretly that the old man guarding the corpse would show up soon.

One minute...three minutes passed.

When Li Tao was wondering whether to make some noise to attract him, the sound of slippers rubbing against the ground gathered from all directions towards where Li Tao was standing.

Li Tao looked around solemnly, unable to locate the other party. The empty surroundings seemed even more eerie.

"Whoo~"

Suddenly, a heavy gasp was heard at Li Tao's right shoulder.

"Don't you know that open flames are the greatest disrespect to the dead?"

It was an old voice, like turning a rusty screw, so harsh that it gave people goose bumps.

Li Tao's pupils had already shrunk into needle-shaped shapes and were trembling.

When, when did this person get behind him?

It was as if he appeared out of thin air. Even though he heard his voice at this moment, Li Tao had to close his eyes to feel it, as if there was a corpse standing behind him.

Li Tao came to his senses and forced himself to calm down.

Using the firelight to see the surroundings clearly, he quickly lowered his head and rolled on the ground in a funny and awkward posture. Then he stood up in the opposite direction, swung his long legs and started running wildly.

The lighter that fell to the ground sprayed flames, illuminating the old man. His skin was loose like old tree bark, and the dense spots made his skin look even more decayed.

His hunched back made him look like a dying man.

The old man's breathing frequency was very low. He took the first step when he inhaled, and when he exhaled, the thousands of afterimages following him dissipated at the same time.

And his hand was placed on Li Tao's shoulder.

Li Tao couldn't break free, as the other person's hand was like a suction cup, holding him in place.

"boom!"

Li Tao slapped him with his backhand.

The old man stood still, but Li Tao was shocked and flew backwards, getting stuck on the wall.

"Ba Wang Tie...Are you a Taoist priest from Longhu Mountain?"

Seeing that Li Tao didn't say anything, he took it as an admission: "I have no grudge against Longhu Mountain..."

Li Tao breathed a sigh of relief. As long as there was no grudge, he wouldn't have to run around. He could just chat with him for a while and wait for Su Xuefu.

Li Tao struggled to jump out of the pit. His eyes flickered for a moment, and after organizing his words, he said in a deep voice:

"My name is Xiao Ji, a freshman of the 21st class of the Sports College, and I am studying under the Heavenly Master of Longhu Mountain. I passed by the Medical College and felt that the evil spirit in the underground was rampant, so I came to check it out."

Before the old man spoke, Li Tao deliberately spoke in a righteous tone in order to highlight that he was a Taoist priest:

"Exorcising demons and defending the way, protecting the stability of the area is the rule of our Longhu Mountain. Wherever there is evil, we, the descendants of Longhu Mountain, will step in. If there is any offense, please forgive me."

The old man was silent for a while, then shook his head and said, "Eighteen people are proficient in the mysteries, and heaven is jealous of twenty-five...Longhu Mountain has also fallen into the status of a lowly force that brags about its fame~"

Xiao Ji became famous very early, and his growth was basically broadcast live in the underworld, so it was not surprising that the old man knew him.

Li Tao: “…”

But is he that much worse than Xiao Ji?

"You are a person that God envied. You are supposed to die before the age of 25. There is no need for me to be angry because you disturbed my peace."

He paused and his tone suddenly became grim: "But you said that my evil spirit was rampant, and you called the deceased people I protected demons. This hatred is definitely... irreconcilable."

"Oh my god, old man, aren't you being too hasty? This is irreconcilable..."

Li Tao's eyes almost popped out of his head. He stared at the old man's expression carefully, suspecting that he was playing a trick on him.

"They donated their bodies to the academy, and I have the responsibility to protect their dignity. You Taoists from Longhu Mountain always like to be self-righteous and decide the nobility and inferiority of others. As I said just now, I have no grudge against Longhu Mountain... but I have a grudge."

"Damn it! How did you say you had any complaints just now?"

Li Tao saw that there was no way he would let this old thief off peacefully, so he rushed over immediately.

He just tried his best to escape but was caught up in one step. Instead of running away in vain, he might as well fight with him. At least he could attract all his energy to himself.

"Boom~"

Li Tao faced the old man again with a palm strike. He was prepared in advance. This time he was able to absorb the opponent's force after taking three steps back.

"A sneak attack? Lu Ma University actually accepted hypocrites like you from Longhu Mountain. It seems that the structure of the board of directors has really changed..."

The old man murmured something, then took the initiative to slap Li Tao with his palm.

Li Tao was unable to dodge and could only cross his arms to block him. The terrifying force submerged Li Tao like a tsunami.

No matter how hard Li Tao struggled, he was still blown away by the force and fell directly into a freezer.

The old man appeared at the door with a hunched back and a staggering gait. He looked at Li Tao with deep dissatisfaction in his eyes.

It seemed that it was an insult to the dead for a Taoist priest like "Xiao Ji" from Longhu Mountain to enter the morgue where the dead were kept.

"Get out!"

As soon as the old man finished speaking, his figure instantly appeared beside Li Tao, and he was about to throw him out like garbage with one hand.

However, there was also ruthlessness in Li Tao's eyes. He tilted his neck back and then hit the old man's shriveled head like a sledgehammer.

Li Tao was pushed back four or five meters by his own strength. After he had distanced himself from the old man, Li Tao felt a little dizzy.

He threw the rubble from the wall in his hand into the air.

The shaky incandescent lamp was smashed in an instant, and the entire freezer room fell into darkness.

When the light turns dark, even the most special person will be distracted for a moment to adapt to the change. After adapting, the old man paced with a frown in the small room of only 70 square meters.

Li Tao disappeared.

There was no room for more, except for the rows of iron freezers on the left and right sides.

"If you come out on your own initiative, I will spare your life. If you wait until I find you, you will lie in that frozen layer forever."

The room fell silent again, and no one responded to his words.

The old man nodded and began to open the freezer layer by layer.

Li Tao was hiding in one of the freezers at this time, and his attention was not on the old man, but on the corpse.

From the moment he hid in, Li Tao's heartbeat accelerated abnormally. This body shape and this face were too similar...

Li Tao's hands trembled as he pinched the label and flipped it up slightly.

It clearly reads: Peanut, law school student, class of 18.

Li Tao's mind was spinning like a phantom projector, and a fat figure appeared in his memory.

"My name is Hua Zhu, and people call me Hua Ye..."

"Brother, my son is from Lu-Ma University. This card of yours is the room card of Lu-Ma University..."

Boom~

These images disappeared from Li Tao's mind.

His pupils contracted as he looked at the face so close to him.

Li Tao is 90% sure that the corpse named Huasheng is the son of the fat man who called himself Hua Ye when they met in the bar!

When did he die?

The appearance of the pistil at that time was very strange. How could it be such a coincidence that he was having sex in the women's bathroom?

Does Huazhu know that his son is dead?

It seems that he doesn't know, if his son died, would he still have the mood to do those things?

No...something's wrong!

Li Tao's intuition told him that his encounter with Hua Zhu was not accidental, so could Hua Zhu's words be trusted? ! !

You know, the reason why Li Tao entered Luma University was because of a word from Hua Zhu.

The card he mentioned came from Luma University, and he was the one who picked up the card and handed it to Li Tao, saying that it fell from the Queen of Hearts.

Qin Yueru verified that the card was indeed held by a student of Luma University.

But if this card didn't come from the Queen of Hearts...

Li Tao didn't even dare to think about it; his entire scalp went numb.

It seems that the authenticity of Hua Zhu's subsequent words is hard to tell. It's not even clear whether Xu Lizhen is dead or not. Did the Queen of Hearts really beat her into a sieve? These are all Hua Zhu's one-sided words!

Li Tao suddenly realized at this moment that everything started from the news in that bar, and in the end it was all the one-sided words of that insignificant middle-aged fat man!!!

"Clang~"

The freezers were pulled out one by one, and the old man was not far from the cabinet where Li Tao was hiding.

Forcing down all the doubts in his heart, Li Tao focused all his energy on his current situation.

He held his breath, and used his fingertips to rub the broken stone in his hand into an extremely sharp end.

He had to seize the moment and poke directly at the old man's head the moment he opened this layer.

Li Tao is not a soft-hearted person. What the consequences of killing him will be is another matter. If he didn't kill the other party, he believed that the old man's words about making him lie in the freezer forever were no joke.

"Clang~"

"Clang~"

As the layers were pulled apart, Li Tao's ears twitched. He knew that the old man's hand was already on the armrest of the freezer where he was.

"Clang~"

The cabinet layer was opened, and Li Tao swung his arms out fiercely like a tomahawk slam dunk in basketball.

"Bang~"

However, things seemed to be developing in a strange direction. Li Tao's ferocious attack did not hit the old man.

The old man, who was well prepared, stood in the middle of the room with a sneer on his face. As a result, with no foothold, Li Tao's wrist hit the edge of the cabinet hard.
