Chapter 6: Ghost Hunting
Mr. Ma on the side opened a few of his boxes and took out some bits and pieces from them, all of which were the things that are commonly found on TV, such as runic paper, copper coins, candles, and incense. Two more opaque bottles were taken out of the last box, and both placed them on Hua Ou's dining table.
Seeing that Mr. Ma didn't notice him, Hua Qi, who was about to leave, quietly hid outside the door, and left a crack in the door so that he could peek at it.
Mr. Ma lit the Buddha incense and candles, burned a talisman and threw it into the air, at this time he heard the sound of someone talking loudly, and slowly he could distinguish that it was the sound of a quarrel, and then a few shadows appeared in the living room, completely ignoring the existence of other people, and quarreling there by himself. Hua Ou was stunned for a moment when he looked at the scene in front of him, and then he began to be afraid, and Mr. Ma comforted him in time and told him not to be afraid.
After the figure became clearer, Mr. Ma burned another talisman, and at this time, several ghosts seemed to have just discovered the existence of others, and as if they had just woken up from a dream, they were in a state of confusion. Mr. Ma burned another talisman at this time, and then asked, "Ancestors, why are you still staying here, why didn't you report to the underworld?" ”
Then one of the ghosts said, "What's going on? How come I don't know anything? I knew I was fighting with them, and then I was in a coma for a while, and when I woke up, it was just now, did you wake us up? ”
As soon as he finished speaking, another ghost interjected, "Listen to him, we can't be dead, right?" ”
Mr. Ma smiled after hearing this, and said, "Everyone, do you remember when you quarreled? Tell me about it every year, month, and day. And why quarrel? ”
Then the first ghost said, "What year, have we been dead for a long time?" ”
Mr. Ma said: "This year is 2013, which year are you talking about? ”
The first ghost was stunned and said, "Isn't it 2010?" This kid borrowed 50,000 yuan from me in 09, and said that he would pay me back in half a year, and he didn't say that he would pay me back after more than two months, so I came to him to settle the account. I didn't expect this kid to say that he wouldn't give any money, so I said that he wouldn't do anything to let his wife pay the bill, and we fought. ”
"And how did you die?" At this time, Hua Ou couldn't help but interject and asked.
Mr. Ma glared at him, then turned his head and asked them to continue.
Then the second ghost who spoke continued: "I don't know, I saw them take out a knife from the back and try to cut me, so I said who is afraid of whom, and then went to the kitchen and took out the kitchen knife, but I didn't expect them to dare to do it, so we cut each other." My wife was afraid that something would happen to me, so she came up and told us to stop fighting, and I didn't know who cut my wife, so I got angry and started to be ruthless. Wasn't it 、、、、、、 then?"
At this time, the first ghost was about to beat him, and the second ghost hurriedly hid to the side, and the two groups of people were tense and had to fight again. At this time, Mr. Ma stopped them and said, "Don't quarrel, people can't be resurrected after death, I think you still forget it, I want to find a way to send you all to the underworld to be reincarnated." Don't bring the grievances of the living time down there. ”
The first ghost was reluctant to hear this, and said, "How can it be done, what about the 50,000 yuan he owes me, and it will be yellow?" No, pay back first! ”
Mr. Ma hurriedly persuaded: "Hey, that's not the case, you are dead, and any grievances you have when you are alive should be wiped out when you are dead." You've been dead for three years, and if you have any problems, the people alive at home must have helped you do it, so don't take it to heart, it's really not okay, you tell me the contact information of your family, how about I ask them to burn more paper money for you? ”
Inside, Mr. Ma is trying to mediate the conflict between the ghosts of the two parties, so that they can leave the world as soon as possible and go to the underworld to be reincarnated. At this time, Hua Qi, who was hiding at the door, felt that she couldn't move, and felt colder and colder.
Hua Qi wanted to see if there was anything wrong with her surroundings, but she found that she couldn't even turn her eyes, and just when she was desperately trying to break free from this feeling of not being able to move, she vaguely saw two figures floating up the stairs from the bottom to the side in the corner of her eye.
Why must she be floating? Because she could hear Mr. Ma negotiating with the two ghosts in the house, but she could not hear the footsteps of the two figures in the staircase.
Not only was there no footsteps, Hua Qi didn't even hear the sound of breathing, and he couldn't even feel the existence of the two figures, if he hadn't seen them with his own eyes, Hua Qi would never have known that these two figures had appeared.
When the two figures floated to Hua Qi's side, the three pairs of eyes looked at each other, and the two figures, no, it was safe to say that they were ghosts, and they were very surprised, as if they didn't believe that there would be humans who could see them. The two ghosts looked at each other for a moment, as if they didn't believe their eyes, and then they exchanged a word in a language that Hua Qi didn't understand, and then glanced at Hua Qi and floated into Hua Ou's house. As for Hua Qi, he was left aside.
Then Hua Qi lost all consciousness, couldn't hear the sound in the room, couldn't move, couldn't feel his body, but his thinking was still very clear.
I don't know what happened inside, Hua Qi felt very anxious, not only wanted to see the result of this incident, but more importantly, her uncle was still in the house, she didn't know if her uncle had seen the two ghosts who had just entered, and she didn't know if they could move, and before she knew it, Hua Qi's tears flowed.
After a while, maybe only a few minutes, maybe longer, just when Hua Qi felt that she had no sense of the passage of time, Hua Qi found that the surroundings were not so cold, and her eyes felt very uncomfortable because she had not blinked for a long time, dry and astringent, and she blinked her eyes several times unconsciously, and then she realized that she could move.
As soon as she regained her freedom, Hua Qi hurriedly rushed into the room, and saw that there was nothing wrong with her uncle, but her face was dazed, Hua Qi breathed a sigh of relief, and felt that her heart had fallen back to where it should be. After relieving herself, Hua Qi hurriedly asked Mr. Ma what was going on.
Mr. Ma took several deep breaths and slowed down for a while before saying, "It was really dangerous just now, what about those ghosts?" Isn't it gone? ”
Hua Qi noticed that the house was clean and clean, and there was nothing except the four of them, so she said to Mr. Ma, "No, are you leaving?" I peeked at the door just now and saw two ghosts entering our house, what happened? Why don't I feel like I can move when they come? ”
