Separated from my new neighbor, I took out my key to open the door and eagerly took off my shoes. Fortunately, I didn't wear high heels today, otherwise I would have to be crippled after walking so much. When I got home, I sat down on the sofa, the soft touch supporting my hips and lumbar spine, and the idea of removing my makeup and taking a shower was completely restrained by the sofa.

I didn't expect the new neighbor to be a policeman, this kind of police comrade who seems to be overly enthusiastic and a little bit secondary, I'd better stay away. As soon as I met today, he wanted to save me, a "runaway girl", and one day if he found out that I was a heavenly master, he would arrest me for fraud. I scrambled to take off my coat and heard footsteps coming from upstairs - I wasn't used to the sudden occupancy of people upstairs.

After eating oden and rice balls, I burped a few times in satisfaction and collapsed on the couch to play with my phone for a while. The noise upstairs gradually subsided, and presumably the police comrade had basically completed his great job of settling down, and fell asleep peacefully at two o'clock in the morning. The night gave me back its quietness, and I slowly removed my makeup, showered, and applied a mask, and watched a TV series for a while. These are all happy moments for girls.

When I was almost done, I took out the small transparent bag I used today from my bag, and took out a paper bag wrapped in brown paper from the canvas bag in the living room. Peeling aside the kraft paper, there was a book with a torn cover, it looked like it was many years old, and every page of rice paper was stained with an old yellow, as thin as a cicada's wings. When I opened the book, there were dense runes and patterns drawn in ink, which looked very strange at first glance.

This is the textbook of the Heavenly Master Fu that I bought at a high price from the second-hand book market, and it is said that it is still a rare book, and Master XX personally compiled it. Because I neglected to study in the past, and I didn't believe in ghosts and gods, now I can only change my mind and start from scratch, striving to be a sweet and useful invisible heavenly master. It means a lot to me to be able to buy this book, it not only means that the world I am in now also has the profession of a celestial master, but also that the ghost system in this world is complete and can be explored, and I am one step closer to unlocking the secrets of my body.

I took out a piece of grass yellow rune paper from the drawer, as well as a pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, which I also found in the thrift market, and spread them on the coffee table. Then he carefully opened the ancient book, slowly found a page with the art of spiritualism, and practiced it with a pencil on the rice paper next to it. At my current half-baked level, the probability of successful soul conjuring mainly depends on luck, if Cao Ke's hair is used to recruit some other bull ghost snake god, it will be really easy to invite God and difficult to send God. The spell I chose this time was dedicated to summoning the revenant—even if a hunch drew me to do so—and I'd rather not be able to summon anything, because if Cao Ke did appear in front of my eyes later, it would only mean that she had been killed.

I don't want to see such an outcome.

After a few stumbling exercises, I solemnly began to draw the talismans with a cinnabar pen. Hold your breath and concentrate until the last stroke is finished, and an orange-red light appears from the handwriting, forming a three-dimensional pattern over the rune paper. I put Cao Ke's hair in the pattern, and the long hair was actually suspended in the air—it means that this talisman has been channeled with divine power. I pinched my fingers, and a red glow flashed, and the room was plunged into darkness.

A woman appeared in front of me. Her hair was meticulously coiled behind her head, she wore paper flowers on her head, and she was dressed in an overly dazzling red dress, which made her skin look abnormally white. Her tongue was outstretched, her eyes were large and hollow, their sockets dark and sunken downward, and they were full of dirt, like they were filled with gray-brown bloody tears. Although the scene was terrifying, I could still recognize her at a glance that she was Cao Ke in the photo, the owner of this hair.

"Cao Ke", I called her tentatively.

She seemed to hear it, but she didn't, making a faint noise that seemed particularly permeable in the darkness.

"Cao Ke, can you hear me?" I called again.

This time she had a more pronounced response, her mouth whining louder, her empty eyes staring straight at me. Then, she suddenly became agitated, as if she wanted to pounce on me but couldn't, her face showing the pain of struggle, and her expression was completely distorted. Her hands clenched wildly in the air, and I noticed that the arms under her sleeves were withered, and there were large areas of gnawed decay on the surface, revealing carrion and phalanges. Her fingers were long, her nails sharp, and covered in dark brown unidentified fluid.

"Do you know where you are?" I tried to reassure her, but to no avail, as she struggled, more dirt fell out of her eye sockets and mouth. "Can you hear me?"

After being questioned five or six times, her reaction was no longer intense and seemed to be tired. Even though her eyes were dark, I could still feel that she was looking at me earnestly, and in the darkness was her great grief. "I- I don't know. ”

She replied to me. It was a very dull tone, even with a humming accent, like a drum in a sealed jar. "I'm panting—I can't breathe, there's something pressing on me, I can't move—"

"Don't worry, say slowly, what do you remember in the end? I'm here to help you", probably because of Cao Ke's infection, I felt that my chest was also very tight, and it was difficult to breathe. Since I can summon Cao Ke's ghost, it not only means that she is no longer alive, but also shows that she has not fallen into reincarnation normally, and she died in vain.

"I remember, I was contacted and said to be recruited to be an actor and gave me eighty thousand — and then I went, and then, and then I don't remember — " her buzzing voice grew weaker and weaker.

"Do you know what's around you?" can you still hear me...... "I know it's because of my limited spiritual power, and this ritual won't last long.

"It's dark—it's, I'm itching—" Her voice stopped abruptly after a pause. Then, there was the sound of electric sparks overhead, and the lights in the room came back on, and Cao Ke's soul was completely gone.

I only lasted ten minutes, and it seems that I still have to practice diligently. I took out a piece of red paper from the drawer, cut it into two palm-sized figures with scissors, and then drew a simple charm on the back of one of the small figures, and put Cao Ke's hair in the villain's hand. After pinching his fingers and chanting, the villain with the talisman on his back stood on the table, holding Cao Ke's hair in his hand. In fact, this is one of the charms I used to be best at, mainly used to find red envelopes or snacks that my parents hidden, and sometimes the earrings and rings can be quickly retrieved if they are lost.

"Please help me find it", I reached out and touched the head of the paper figure, and it rubbed my hand affectionately and disappeared into thin air.
