C20 Mysterious Orphanage

After the fire left the building, Huang Chengjin quickly drove his Toyota onto the night road. He looked at his watch and saw that it was already 1: 30 a.m. and the rain had stopped, but he didn't drive back to his house in the Hall of Nine Dragons. Instead, he headed north on another road, directly to his distant relative, Uncle Zhang, who had quit his job this afternoon. He remembered Uncle Zhang telling him that he knew the ins and outs of the mysterious orphanage eighteen years ago.

For some reason, Huang Chengjin instinctively felt that he was about to face a great calamity. The terrible doom was slowly approaching him like a huge, murderous net. He had to find a way to save himself before this unfathomable evil force reached him.

So he had to find out what had happened to the mysterious fire and death of the orphanage that had been his predecessor in the new Universe Building. He had a strong intuition that everything that had happened now had to do with the thirty-three children burned to death in the orphanage eighteen years ago.

Just now, the news that Chen Tianshi had died a violent death made him understand that he would not be able to escape from this chain of mysterious events.

He quickly headed to the northern New Territories West region, where the Tang Family Village was located. This was where Uncle Zhang lived.

After nearly forty minutes of driving, he finally arrived at the Tang Family Village. Inside the village, the tall buildings that were three or four stories tall gave off dark shadows. It was obvious that everyone in the village was sleeping soundly.

Huang Chengjin parked his car at the village entrance and hurried towards Uncle Zhang's house. He turned on the flashlight he brought with him and turned a few corners in the dark and gloomy alleyway. In front of him was an old, one-story house with a tile roof in the style of old Jiangnan.

Waves of chilly mountain wind blew, causing Huang Chengjin to feel a little cold and abrupt. The big wooden door of Uncle Zhang's house flashed a sinister aura under the light of Huang Chengjin's flashlight.

"Uncle Zhang!" "Uncle Zhang!" Huang Chengjin continuously knocked on the door and shouted. He didn't care that it was already late at night, after a full five minutes, the wooden door finally opened with a creak. Uncle Zhang, whose eyes were still filled with sleepiness, was standing inside the door in his pajamas.

"Who is it, in the middle of the night …" It's so noisy! "

"It's me, Uncle Zhang! It's gold!"

"Manager Huang, I've quit my job already?" Uncle Zhang had a puzzled expression.

"Uncle Zhang, I would like to know about the orphanage from before?"

"Didn't I tell you to come to me on Saturday? Why did you come looking for me in the middle of the night? "Why are you in such a hurry?"

"Uncle Zhang, something happened. Heavenly Master Chen who came to exorcise the Devils tonight died in a traffic accident. I think …" Huang Chengjin wanted to say something but hesitated.

"Sigh!" Forging gold, is that right? I've said it before, this building is very strange, it's not as simple as you think. Forming gold, it's definitely not a coincidence. "Chengjin, listen to me, hurry up and quit and leave this damned place!"

"Uncle Zhang, I want to know more about the fire that happened in the orphanage eighteen years ago."

"Come in, gold!" Uncle Zhang said with a wry smile.

Although Uncle Zhang's living room was very old, a few pieces of antique mahogany furniture and the house was very clean. On the screen in front of the bedroom, there was a painting of a handmade and exquisite fairy flying in the sky.

Uncle Zhang invited Huang Cheng to sit down. He first made a cup of tea for Huang Chengjin and then walked into the room. He took out a few photo frames and walked out of the house.

Looking at the photo, he let out a long sigh, "Cheng Jin, many things in life are really strange. Sometimes, when I think I have forgotten everything, it would come back to your side. He handed the framed photograph to Huang Chengjin.

One of them was a middle-aged man who looked like a doctor in a long white coat. This man's face was handsome and free, showing a calm heroic spirit, and he was smiling as he held a broom in his hand. The color of the photo had already started to change, but Huang Chengjin was able to recognize at a glance that this middle-aged man who looked like an old man was Uncle Zhang, his hair was still black at the time.

"Cheng Jin, do you know who the person leaning on my shoulder is?"

"I don't know!"

"He is Bai Qiguang, the president of the orphanage. This is a Catholic orphanage, which was donated by a Catholic priest who donated his entire family fortune after his death. The orphanage is called Holy Orphanage, which is half from the church and half from the government, which was founded twenty years ago in the Dazhan Mountains. Because I work diligently and seriously, he likes me very much. This photo was taken when he and I first opened the orphanage a month ago!"

"Then what does this Dean Bai have to do with this?"

In addition to him and me, there were forty to fifty orphans and three young female helpers. The work of the orphanage was mainly responsible for taking care of the daily lives and studying of these orphans, as well as arranging for the orphans to meet the guests who wanted to adopt them. The first year of work was a happy one for everyone.

"Uncle Zhang, what happened in the third year?"

"Cheng Jin, do you know the situation of Dean Bai?"

"What do you mean?" Huang Chengjin was puzzled.

"I'll tell you! "Bai Qiguang is still not dead yet. Honestly speaking, I also don't understand why Dean Bai, as a person who believes in the Lord, and who is honest and upright, would do such a terrifying thing."

"Then, where is Dean Bai now?" When Huang Chengjin heard Uncle Zhang say that Dean Bai was not dead, his heart lit up. If this orphanage's dean was still alive, then wouldn't finding him be a hundred percent sure of the fire 18 years ago?

"Haha, he has become a vegetable now! It has already been eighteen years since I laid in the Green Mountain Hospital, and it's still unknown how long I have to sleep for. In these eighteen years, I have been visiting him in the hospital every year, talking to him, but he didn't react at all. His face has already turned into the face of an old man.

"Uncle Zhang, what happened? Why did Dean Bai turn into a vegetable?"

Uncle Zhang stopped talking and handed another photo to Huang Chengjin. Huang Chengjin looked at the other photo and saw that it was of Dean Bai with a dozen orphans and three female assistants, sitting on the lawn outside the orphanage next to a merry-go-round. One of the girls who was standing next to Dean Bai was about twenty years old, but she was tall and slender.

She's only twenty-three years old. Although Dean Bai is already forty, he's not married yet, and I can see that he's always been secretly in love with A-Li. Whenever she's around, he's always in high spirits and would even tell jokes, which is completely different from his usual silent self. A-Li also has a good impression of him, and they share a common belief in each other.

"What's a pity?"

"It's a pity that the next year, a rich young master suddenly started chasing A-Li like crazy. He drove A-Li to and from work in a famous car every day, gave her bird's nest and also gave her a 999 gold ring. Although Dean Bai is a university student, he only earns a salary of a few tens of thousands gold coins a month. "In front of that playboy's love attack, A-Li quickly threw herself into his arms. Dean Bai looked very sad. I told him that if you really like a girl, he should confess to her. Don't miss the chance!

"So Dean Bai listened to me. On a sunny morning, he suddenly expressed his love and proposed marriage to A-Li. Unfortunately, A-Li rejected him on the spot and immediately quit her job. Dean Bai became jealous after his failed courtship. He argued with A-Li on the spot and said that the girl was greedy and vain. So, it was a great disgrace for the two of them to part!"

"After the breakup, Dean Bai's entire being has become extremely weird and irritable. He actually started to curse the orphans for eating so fast and beating them up for no reason at all! "After seeing him for half a month, bad news suddenly came from the newspapers. It was said that the rich young master had long since had a wife, and after getting tired of her, he wanted to abandon her and ended up with a life. After hearing that Ali died pregnant, Dean Bai cried for three days and three nights in grief, lost twenty kilograms, and started not to participate in God's prayers every morning. He spent all day searching for strange books in his house, and then suddenly returned to the orphanage after a month of rest."

"Start at this time?" Huang Chengjin asked.

"Yes, I remember the first day he came back to work. His face was as clear as a zombie in a zombie film, and he was carrying a huge travel bag in his hand. He had obviously come back from abroad, and even his speech had become very strange, very different from his usual manly manner, and he was still laughing loudly at the orphans who were praying at luncheon, saying that only the devil was the truth in this world, and God was an impostor! We thought he was mentally stimulated by his lovelorn, so we didn't bother with him. He came back and shut himself up in a study in the basement, closed all the gap doors with black cloth, and warned us not to enter his underground study, like a lunatic! Otherwise, he had to bear the consequences! "When he was speaking, his voice became the voice of a small child, which was very eerie. Actually, at that time, I thought that something bad must have happened to him, but I didn't take it seriously, otherwise, maybe …"

"No, maybe not. Go on!"

Then he started to get weird, completely ignoring his work, and every day he would ask me to go to the market and buy him some liver, pig's heart, pig's brain, and so on. Every day, he would automatically take these bloody organs to the study in the basement and say that he would cook for himself, and after that he would never eat with us again, until one day, when I was looking for tools in the basement, I realized that he had forgotten to close the door.

"What did you see?"

"He, he's actually eating pig liver and pig brain raw, and he's eating it so excitedly, and his mouth is full of blood, and my God, he's like a vampire zombie in a ghost film, and he scared me to death, and he scared me so much that my feet almost went limp, and luckily he didn't find me, and then I found out that he bought a packet of incense every day and sent it back to his secret basement, and you know, our orphanage of holy light is a Catholic orphanage, and he's a Catholic, so how can he do it like a stick! "But he's the dean. Although we felt that something was wrong, none of us dared to say anything to him. In the end, something strange happened …"

"Over the next month, little strange things happened, and the lights in the orphanage were often turned on and off automatically, and then a few orphans said they often saw strange white lights in the carousel on the lawn outside at night, and the carousel would run, and then things got worse, and the orphanage would get weirder and weirder at night, and the furniture and chairs in the corridors would fly up and down, and some of the orphans' personal belongings would disappear, and then the orphans said they heard a voice talking to them at night, saying that God was their brother and not Jesus!" Two of the orphans even started sleepwalking at night. God, I saw them in their sleep, looking for raw cockroaches and raw rats to eat, ripping them open with blood, and it scared the hell out of me, and then the two orphans died after being seriously ill for many days, and everybody was scared, and they thought something was up in the orphanage. So when I asked Dean Bai about the latest series of strange things, he wasn't interested at all, and said it was all our imagination! He also warned me to stop making alarmist stuff in the orphanage, or he would show me! I found that his face was getting worse with each passing day, and that the tone of his speech was becoming more and more like that of a woman. He became sealed in his underground study all day long, and came out only once every few days. He was still very fierce towards the orphans! "" I'm sorry. "" I'm sorry, but I don't want to make a mistake. "" I don't want to make a mistake … "" I don't want to … "" I don't want to … "" I don't want to … "I don't want to …" said … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … Who knows, maybe they will make another prayer meeting!

"Later on, the weird things became even more frightening, the Madonna in the lobby would make horrible crying sounds when she was alone in the middle of the night, and the number of children sleepwalking would also increase. I heard that the Madonna would talk to the orphans that were sleepwalking at night, saying that her brother was a true God, and I was terrified. I left the orphanage at work and went home to sleep, not daring to stay at the orphanage for the night!"

"Then, one month later, the true big event happened. I heard from the newspapers and television that the young master of a rich family suddenly died violently on the balcony of his house. I heard that his death was very scary. Then the rich man's family actually died within a month. First, the young master's mother hanged herself, then the rich man also killed himself in a car accident, and then the other brother went crazy and shot his two sisters and sister-in-law with a shotgun one night, and then shot himself in the mouth with a shotgun. I heard that he blew his head off, and the stocks of the rich man's company fell completely.

"Of course I have. At that time, I was just a kid who just came out to work and was most interested in gossip. At that time, the news of the death of the rich family in January shook the entire city. I remember there were superstitious rumors about people being suspected of having been cursed." Huang Chengjin said, "It really is the Death Curse! Then what does this have to do with Dean Bai? "

"Oh, what a sin! It was a pity that no one thought it was related to Dean Bai at the time, but then I discovered that Dean Bai went out of his room every day to read the newspaper about the death of the rich family, and a sinister smile appeared on his face every time it was reported in the newspaper. Now that I think about it, it seemed to me that he already knew that the rich family would die out, which made me suspicious, and I knew that all of this must have something to do with the place he had taken a week off.

"Did you find out what he did then?"

"Later, when I learned from a friend at the travel company that Dean White had gone to Thailand in the week before the strange accident at the orphanage and the accident at the rich family, it became clear to me that something important had happened to him on his way to Thailand, because all the strange and unfortunate things had happened when he came back from Thailand, and he had become so different from before, so eerie and thin that one day, while he was out, I stole his keys and quietly opened the door of his underground study. I saw a sealed, square goldfish jar, and in the middle of the red, transparent liquid, there was a four-faced baby monster, a dead baby. That baby monster was very scary, fierce, and on its body grew patches of something like leaves, and its feet were as long and green as ginseng, and it really scared people to death, as if it was raising a monster flower. I immediately put down the black cloth and hurriedly left, I never thought that the Lord's Dean Bai would actually abandon his faith, and was actually raising a ghost! "

"Raising ghosts?"

"Yes, that area in Thailand is the place with the most of these evil things. I know there are a lot of mysterious legends about the demon-head in Thailand, but I never thought that I would actually see a real ghost farmer there one day! At that time, I understood that the death of the rich and powerful family must be related to this ghost. I heard someone say that raising a ghost can kill the enemy without them noticing, and its power is extremely terrifying! "It's just that this ghostly kid needs master's blood to feed him, and I heard that there will be times where he doesn't want to listen to his master and instead wants to kill him!"

"So what the hell did he raise?"

"I don't know. I only know that it must have been an astonishing ghost with an unbelievably immense supernatural ability, because that night, Dean Bai met with an accident upon his return! That night, I spent the night in the orphanage because I was worried. That night, I had a lot of weird dreams, and the Virgin said to me, 'I did a big bad thing, and she said she wants me to take full responsibility for everything I did today, and I know that it wasn't the Virgin, and it must have been the ghost kid who did it. I shouted,' You're not real, you're not real, you're a transmogrified demon, and then you suddenly woke up from the dream! '

When I woke up, my god, I heard the terrible screams of a child, my god, I looked out the window and saw the sky burning, I rushed out of my room, my god, what I saw was the whole second floor of the orphanage building turned into a sea of fire, it was extremely dazzling in the darkness, the fire was blazing bright, and from inside came the screams of children who were burnt to death, really heard, heard, all … As he spoke, Uncle Zhang began to cry.

Then I saw a scene in which I couldn't believe my eyes at all. I saw Dean Bai holding a burning torch and looking at the burning orphan's dormitory and laughing like a madman. God, I never dreamed that he would do something so bad as setting fire to someone! I rushed up and knocked him unconscious with a punch. When he fell on the ground, I could clearly see that with a loud bang, a cloud of red smoke rose from his face, rose from his mouth and ears, and quickly floated away, flying into the darkness of the forest! I had no choice but to call the police and call them. It took the fire department more than ten minutes to get there, but it was all too late.

Uncle Zhang stopped, suppressed his emotions, and continued speaking.

"He woke up a few minutes after I knocked Dean Bai out, he got up and stared at the fire in shock, and I asked him loudly why he did such a heartless thing, and he cried out that he didn't do it, and he screamed that it must have been the ghost he brought back from Thailand who got him on the job, and when he finished, like a madman, he picked up the torch from the ground and rushed into the fire, and I followed him, and we all rushed down to the burning basement, where he was going to use the fire to burn the ghost who brought him back! When I burst through the smoke into his underground study, I saw that his ghost altar had turned into a sea of fire, and that the glass jar covered in black cloth had been doused with oil and burned. Then he rushed up to the second floor and jumped from the second-floor window to kill himself, but he didn't succeed and became a vegetable forever! The entire Sacred Light Orphanage and 33 orphans were burned to death tonight. Dean Bai also entered the hospital forever due to his permanent coma. I told the police about the matter of raising ghosts, but they instead treated me like a madman. This was too much! I was locked up for two months before I got it back, and then the orphanage was abandoned, and the case was left unsolved. Today, you guys have rebuilt the new Universe Building, and I thought everything was over, but I didn't expect that this time, when we went back to work, something strange happened …! "

"Uncle Zhang, according to what you said, the children from the thirty-three orphanages were killed by that ghost. Then if Dean Bai personally burned the body of that ghost, then the ghost should already be dead. Then what kind of demon is the monster that is currently in the building?"

"Cheng Jin, believe me, I have a strange feeling that the ghost isn't dead. I think that the most terrifying evil power in the building must be from the ghost that Dean Bai brought back eighteen years ago, because ordinary lone soul monsters can only scare people, and don't have any direct power to kill people. Only a descending ghost raised in blood can have such a terrifying killing power!"

"That's not right!" I've heard that as long as those Southeast Asian ghosts burn their flesh, they would basically be beaten back to hell. There's no reason for them to do such a thing! "

"I'm not sure either. Originally, this freak should have been burned to death, but I don't know the reason why, since they've come back to life. Initially, Dean Bai was the only one that knew about this matter, but he's turned into a vegetable again!"

"That's not right!" Also, Uncle Zhang, Boss Wan said that the one he met in the elevator when he ran into the devil was a fox spirit and not a ghost? "

Manager Huang, although I don't know much about Ghosts, but I am 100% sure that the demon king in the deepest level of your skyscraper isn't any fox fairy, but that ghost. The fox fairy knows that heaven's rules exist, and offending heaven's rules will be chopped off by heaven, and the Great Misty Mountain's fox immortal legend isn't evil before, so why would there be a terrifying fox spirit appearing now? I'm not sure about that, but I feel that there is a possibility that it has something to do with that terrifying ghost king, so I'm not clear about it.

Huang Chengjin smiled bitterly and said, "Thank you for your good intentions. I still have things to do, so I'll take my leave first. I'll come find you next Saturday to see if there's any solution to this matter!" After which, he bade farewell and left.

Uncle Zhang sent Huang Chengjin to the door. When he was about to turn and leave, he said, "Chengjin, believe me, hurry up and leave the new universe building. I have a feeling that something big will happen to your building soon!"

"I understand!" Huang Chengjin didn't know whether to laugh or not as he shrugged his shoulders and left.

After sending Huang Chengjin off, Uncle Zhang let out a long sigh and closed the door. He looked at the clock on the wall, it was already four o'clock in the morning, he drank a cup of boiling water in the living room and then went back to his room to sleep. Unfortunately, he didn't go out, otherwise he would have seen the silence outside.
