Liu Shangang smiled and said, "Of course you can't walk into the city. I'll contact Lao Zhai. After dinner, we'll go to find him. He happened to go to the city to see his granddaughter and go along with us."

I asked him, "What kind of car does he drive? Can so many people drive?"

Liu Shangang still smiled: "I have seen Lao Zhai's car. The van is usually used to transport goods. Although it is a little dirty and broken, the space is large enough."

I nodded: "Hurry up and go and leave after dinner."

It was about six o'clock, and everyone had finished their meal. We didn't have time to clean up the dishes, and after Liu Shangang packed up the things he wanted, we left the hotel together.

The guy who was watching the store on the first floor saw us coming down and asked us if we would come back in the evening and whether we needed to leave the door. I simply replied, "No," and left the store.

There is one guy like this who guards the bar on the first floor in every Jihunzhuang hotel. They are only responsible for receiving visitors and collecting money. Although they occasionally go up to the second floor, they cannot enter the room on the second floor because the hotel opened in Jihunzhuang is a "card issuance system". That is to say, if you want to stay here and make an appointment in advance, the store will ask someone to hand over the room card to you. When you come to stay in the hotel, go up to the second floor directly and swipe the card to enter. When you walk with your room card, someone will come to visit and ask for the room card after a while. When you see that the store guys cannot get those room cards. Usually, if someone goes up to the second floor directly after entering the hotel, the guy just checks the room number and never asks too much.

To put it bluntly, these guys who look at the store are just outsiders. They have no idea what kind of people they receive on the second floor of the hotel. When these people leave the hotel every day, they will forget that there is still a second floor in the store. According to the store's regulations, they cannot bring their friends or relatives to live there.

I guess even the cold staircase that leads directly from the second floor to the underground, the young man who looks at the shop has never walked through.

I once heard from Senior Brother Zhuang that the bar at the hotel was actually arranged, as if the people from Longhu Mountain were entrusted to cast magic on tables and chairs. That magic can make ordinary people like the shop boy forget some specific things, but it has no effect for people like us who can condense their mind power.

As for who will clean the second floor of the hotel, I can only say that I don’t know, after all, the business in the hotel is not managed by us.

After leaving the hotel, we walked along the path pointed out by Liu Shangang for less than twenty minutes and saw a small car repair shop full of grease from afar. Liu Shangang said that it was Lao Zhai's home.

Liu Shangang came to the door of the car repair shop and shouted "Old Zhai" twice. Although the door of the car repair shop was small, the internal space seemed to be very large. Liu Shangang's screams came to the door, and an echo came soon.

Not long after, a man who seemed to be in his fifties walked out of the inside. He was still holding a rice jar and chopsticks in his hand, walking outside while consuming cold skin.

When Liu Shangang saw him, he smiled and called out: "Old Zhai."

Lao Zhai chewed the food in his mouth and raised his chin at Liu Shang, which was a response.

Liu Shangang asked him again: "When will you go to the city?"

Lao Zhai casually placed the rice jar on the windowsill, turned around and shouted to the car shop: "You guys are looking forward to the store, I'll go out and I won't come tonight."

Then I heard someone in the car shop "hey" and the answer also caused a series of echoes.

Lao Zhai's eyes passed by Liu Shangang and looked at us. I found that his eyes were very turbid, and there was a feeling of uncomfortable viciousness in his eyes.

What does this person do? How could he have such a look?

He and I looked at each other for a moment, and then said to Liu Shangang: "Let's go now. The one behind you is Master Chai's apprentice?"

Liu Shangang laughed twice and said, "Well, this is my brother Dao."

Lao Zhai didn't say anything, and walked into a small alley on the left side of the car repair shop. In less than a minute, he returned in a van that looked a little old. He rolled down the window and waved to us, signaling us to get on the bus.

As Liu Shangang said, the car was dirty and worn, but the space was indeed large enough. When the five of us sat in, including Lao Zhai, there were only six of us, but there was still a lot of room left.

When the car was about to drive into the city, Lao Zhai found that I was looking at him when he was looking at the rearview mirror, so he asked me: "How is Master Chai doing in the past two years? Are you in good health?"

I said, "Do you know my master?"

Lao Zhai frowned and sighed, "He almost killed me back then."

After a moment of silence, Lao Zhai said again: "But if it weren't for him, I might have died."

I then responded to his question just now: "My master is pretty good, but he is still older and is sick occasionally now."

Lao Zhai: "It's great. If you have the chance, I'll go to Shandong to see him."

After that, I was silent for a long time. Lao Zhai spoke of Hu in a very stiff tone, and chatting with him was not a pleasant thing.

Later, Liu Shangang took out the map and said to Lao Zhai: "Lao Zhai, where is your son's home?"

Lao Zhai: "Just tell me where are you going? I'll let you go and do your own thing."

Liu Shangang was not polite, and pointed to the road ahead and said, "Just turn left from here and put us on the side of the road."

Lao Zhai nodded and drove the car into the left lane.

Under Liu Shangang's guidance, he drove the car to a construction site. But Liu Shangang got off the car without rushing. He first carefully observed the environment outside in the car, and seemed to be sure there was no problem, so he urged us to get off the car quickly.

After getting off the car, Liu Shangang took us along the gap in the iron wall and entered the construction site.

Generally speaking, except for steel and cement, there are yellow sand and loess in the construction site, but on this construction site, it is covered with grass that is waist-high and even taller than people.

I looked at the weeds around me that started to turn yellow and asked Liu Shangang: "This construction site has been abandoned for many years."

Liu Shangang looked up at the tall building not far away that had not been completely built and was like a cement shelf. He said, "It's not considered abandoned, it's still being tendered, and I'm looking for the next developer. Lao Bao said that this place has changed hands several times, but no one who took over this property did not have a good ending. Some people also said that the feng shui of this place was not good. When the first developer built this building, he originally wanted to use it as a hotel, but the developer went bankrupt in the middle. Later, the people who took over it either went bankrupt or had a broken capital chain. None of them had a good result anyway."

While talking, he had already pushed away the grass in front of him and walked towards the tall building.

On the way, I noticed that there were some sand piles for buildings outside the grass, and a very worn cement mixer not far away. There were also many safety helmets and broken bricks scattered on the ground.

Looking at the hard helmets that had faded and turned white, I suddenly felt a very bad feeling, but I couldn't tell what was wrong.

The building is about to be topped off, and the stairs have been built. When we walked up the stairs, Liu Shangang said to me: "Looking from this building east, you can see the business building where Yan Xiaotian's company is located at a glance. Lao Bao also said that this is an excellent observation point."

I asked Liu Shangang: "Senior Brother Bao has been here?"

Liu Shangang: "I have been here, not only but I have also looked at the Feng Shui here. He said that there is a Wind Breaking Bureau in the location of this building. If I live in such a place for a long time, my wealth and fortune will be exhausted and my body will become poor. Moreover, he said that near Feng Shui, such as this, there are often evil spirits. The properties close to this place are particularly prone to haunting. I asked Lao Zhai, and Lao Zhai said that I had never heard of haunted things nearby. I guess Lao Bao had read it wrong."

Speaking of which, Brother Bao seems to be suspicious of not being good at learning skills when looking at Feng Shui.

This building has a total of fifteen floors, which was a relatively high floor in the early 21st century. We climbed to the top floor, and then Liu Shangang took out his telescope and watched an office building directly south.

It seems that the office building is where Yan Xiaotian and his team work. The two buildings are very far apart, and there is a very narrow street in the middle. Looking from us, you can clearly see the scene around the office building. Even the expressions of pedestrians on the road and their clothes can be seen.

But our location is in the backlight, and it is almost night now, and it is difficult for the people opposite to see us.

Liu Shangang was right, this is indeed an excellent observation point.

Liang Houzai looked downstairs and said, "This place should be a commercial district in the city center. The land price is probably not low."

Liu Shangang smiled: "I don't know this."

After saying that, he focused on observing the office building opposite and didn't say another word for a long time.

During this period, I walked around the top floor and looked at the surrounding environment. Although I don’t understand Feng Shui, the place feels really bad.

We walked from the suburbs to the city, and all the houses were located directly south and north. Only the building where we were located is northwest and southeast. Each wall of the tall building faced the right angle to the surrounding buildings. There was a building on the west side that was much taller than this building, and on the east side there was a low old building. The old buildings were not only dilapidated, but also in a thick and long chimney. The chimney had a deep color. From a distance, it looked like the sky in the distance cracked, leaving a dark gap.

And today it was obviously the southwest wind, but when I stood upstairs, I always felt that the wind was blowing from the east. The gust of wind seemed to be difficult to dissipate when it reached the west end of the building. I turned around and rolled up all the dust on the ground.

Liu Shangang observed the office building not far away for nearly half an hour before putting down the telescope. He turned his head and said, "There is nothing big, but I heard from Lao Bao that there seems to be a surveillance camera on the back street of the office building. He came and walked in a hurry, and didn't check it himself."

At this time, Liang Houzai suddenly said, "Hmm? Isn't that Liangzi?"

I quickly went up and looked at the office building. Sure enough, I saw Liangzi standing at the door of the office building. He seemed to have encountered something. Before walking around the door, he sat down on the curb.
