Chapter 7: Knocking on the Bowl at the Crossroads

Night came as scheduled.

The night in H City is not as silent as in a small mountain village. The streets are lit up with sporadic lights, and the honking of cars is incessant.

Looking at the time, it was already eight o'clock in the evening. Lin Zheng took a deep breath and walked out of the room.

Aku's house is located in the old urban area of H City, which is not lively, but it is not remote. There was a noodle restaurant a few dozen meters outside the door, Lin Zheng walked into the store, ordered a beef noodle, and filled his stomach.

When he finished eating the beef noodles and was about to pay, Ah Ku asked the boss for a porcelain bowl and a pair of chopsticks, and then walked to the corner of the street and stopped a taxi.

Sit in the passenger cab and recall the contents of the diary.

"Master, take me to the intersection of South Huancheng Road and the Second Ring Road."

In the diary left by Ah Ku, the first thing that the mysterious man asked him to do was at the intersection of South Huancheng Road and Second Ring Road. What did the mysterious man ask Ah Ku to go to the live broadcast for? In order to find clues, Lin Zheng wanted to repeat the content of Ah Ku's live broadcast to see what he would find.

The taxi driver was a middle-aged man in his forties, he frowned slightly, looked up at Lin Zheng, and seemed to be a little puzzled. However, he didn't say anything, and stepped on the accelerator to take Lin Zheng to his destination.

The intersection of South Huancheng Road and the Second Ring Road, a bit far from Aku's room. The road was jammed with traffic, and it took more than half an hour for the taxi to leave the city.

"Master, do you need nine more to get there?"

Lin was sitting in the car, seeing that he had not yet reached his destination, and he was a little anxious.

"It'll be there in a few minutes."

"Little brother, few people go there on a big night, is there something going on?"

The taxi driver turned his head slightly and glanced at Lin Zheng.

At the intersection of South Huancheng Road and the Second Ring Road, there are no buildings there, and it is relatively remote. The taxi driver, who had been driving for more than ten years, was a little puzzled in his heart, Lin was the first passenger to ask to go there. As for why the taxi driver remembered it, it was all because the intersection was weird. Every year, there are several car accidents that claim several lives.

Hearing the words of the driver, Lin Zheng relaxed slightly. But from what he said, the intersection seemed to be very remote.

Lin Zheng smiled slightly: "It's the first time I've come to H City, and I'm going there to do something." ”

Lin Zheng didn't tell the driver the truth, and told a small lie.

The driver nodded and said slowly: "It turned out to be doing something." ”

"It's a remote place, it's ten o'clock now. If you're going back to the city after running errands, you probably won't be able to get a taxi. ”

The driver was more enthusiastic and gave Lin Zheng some advice.

Hearing him say this, the Lin family became a little worried. Although I don't know how much time I spent live streaming at the intersection, when the live broadcast ended, there was no taxi to take me back to the city, which was really a problem.

"Master, where are you sending me, waiting for me to finish the matter, and then send me back?"

"Yes, but not for money"

The driver dragged a long tail note and looked at Lin Zheng with a slight smile.

Ah Ku died, but left behind a rich fortune. Money? That's not a problem.

Lin Zheng took out a stack of hundred-yuan bills from his pocket and pulled out three of them.

"Is three hundred enough?"

When the driver saw Lin Zheng take out 300 yuan, he couldn't stop smiling. Constantly nodding his head, he said happily: "Enough, enough." ”

The throttle was pressed wildly, and the speed of one hundred and twenty yards showed the joy in his heart.

"Z!"

The fast-moving taxi came to a steady stop and pulled over to the intersection.

Lin Zheng stepped out of the car and looked around.

The street lamps emit dim and yellowish lights, reflecting the green belts on both sides of the road. Apart from intermittent traffic, there is not even a single building around.

Lin Zheng's eyes were like torches, looking at everything at the crossroads.

Yellowed street lights, tricolor-changing signals, and green belts on both sides of the road.

Suddenly, his dark eyes shrank slightly, and his gaze stayed on the green belt. At this time, the taxi driver walked out of the car and patted Lin Zheng on the shoulder.

"Little brother, I'm here waiting for you to finish your business."

But Lin Zheng's mind was not on him, his eyes were fixed on the green belt, and even his brows were tightly locked.

When the driver saw Lin Zheng's expression, he thought he was afraid of something.

"Every year, there are several car accidents that kill people. But with me here with you, don't be afraid! ”

He patted his chest and winked at Lin Zheng.

It turns out that people often die here, so it's no wonder that the green belt at the intersection is very strange. The original verdant flowers are early in the morning, but here they are withered and yellow, and they are the same color as the lights emitted by the street lamps.

There are ghosts here, lifeless and lifeless. The surrounding green grass and trees cannot survive at all, so the flowers and plants in the green belt wither and turn yellow.

Recalling what Ah Ku wrote in the diary, Lin Zheng nodded secretly, as if he understood something.

Turning his head to look at the driver's master, his tightly knit brows gradually relaxed, and a smile like a spring breeze appeared on his resolute face.

"I'm not afraid, please wait here for a while."

After Lin Zheng finished speaking, he took out Ah Ku's mobile phone, logged in to the live broadcast website, and started the live broadcast.

Point your phone camera at yourself and walk around the intersection. He wasn't wandering aimlessly, he was repeating what Ah Ku had done at the crossroads before.

When the live broadcast room started, thousands of viewers poured in. They saw Lin walking around the intersection and felt that the scene in front of them seemed somewhat familiar.

"What is the anchor doing?"

"This intersection is so familiar, is it the place where Ah Ku used to broadcast live?"

"Yes, this is the crossroads! Ah Ku was live here that day, and he was almost hit by a sudden truck! ”

"What are the streamers doing here? Could it be that you are learning to knock on the bowl at the crossroads? ”

As soon as tourists and friends entered the live broadcast room, they frantically brushed the barrage.

They are right, Lin Zheng came here to repeat the content of Ah Ku's previous live broadcast - knocking on the bowl at the crossroads!

Legend has it that the crossroads are the place where the yin qi is the heaviest, and the ghosts who wander the world are unable to tell the way home, so most of them gather at the crossroads in the middle of the night. Especially at the intersections, there are several car accidents that kill people every year, and there are even more ghosts here.

Knocking on the bowl at the crossroads, the iron plate is easy to attract the appearance of the hungry ghost, because the sound of knocking on the bowl reaches the ears of the hungry ghost, and is regarded by him as a signal to come out to find food.

Lin Zheng, who has lived in a mountain village since he was a child, of course didn't know that knocking on the bowl at the intersection could lead to ghosts, he just repeated the content of Ah Ku's live broadcast. When he took out a bowl and chopsticks from his arms, the visitors in the live broadcast room instantly understood.

"It turns out that the anchor is knocking on the bowl at the crossroads of learning to attract ghosts, come on!" A tourist friend (a ruffian who was in love) sent a plane, and the fish balls hit fifty times in a row.

"Knocking on the bowl at the crossroads, the anchor also learns to explore the spirit and summon ghosts, I really look forward to it!" A tourist friend (one drunk and drunk) sent a plane, and the fish balls hit fifty times in a row.

"Anchors should be careful, when Ah Ku was broadcasting here, he was almost hit by a truck!" Tourist friend (lonely spirits) sent a plane, fish balls fifty hits

Lin Zheng didn't look at the barrage in the live broadcast room, he squatted on the ground seriously, and the wooden chopsticks in his hand kept knocking on the porcelain bowl, making a sound of "ding, ding, ding".

There is a lot of yin in this place, and there must be a yin spirit lurking in the dark. If the ghosts hear the sound of the bowl knocking, they will take the sound as a signal and come out to forage for food.

Lin Zheng was concentrating, his eyes scanning the crossroads like torches. Taiyi Xuangong has been introduced, and the potential of the body's organs has been tapped. Those ghosts that ordinary mortals can't see, but they can be seen by Lin Zheng.

He didn't know if knocking on the bowl would lead to ghosts, but he still tapped the porcelain bowl very seriously and patiently.

The taxi driver on the other side of the road was very puzzled when he saw Lin Zheng's behavior, and secretly wondered in his heart.

"What is this kid doing? It can't be a psychopath."

Lin Zheng was actually regarded as a psychopath by the taxi master, which can only be blamed on how rare he is, and he doesn't know that knocking on the bowl at the intersection can attract ghosts.

At this time, there were already 100,000 visitors in the live broadcast room, and they were swiping the barrage and giving out fish ball gifts, expecting supernatural things to happen.

Lin Zheng was half-squatting, patiently tapping the porcelain bowl.

Suddenly, a vision appeared, and a cold wind blew. The street lights on the side of the road are flickering on and off, and even the signal lights at the intersection are changing in three colors.

The driver, who was standing next to the taxi, gradually became a little uneasy when he saw this situation.

The driver didn't know that at this time, there was a cloak at the crossroads, with concave eyes, a bloody face, and a long tongue in his mouth. The cold wind blew with his appearance, it was a yin wind, which made people shudder. And he is a ghost, terrifying!

Ghosts, which are divided into six types.

"The first type is the discouraged ghosts, which refers to those ghosts who line up to be reincarnated, and they are also the easiest to see."

"The second type is a white-shirted ghost like me, usually some new souls, who generally don't hurt people, and their resentment is not very high."

"The third type is called the Yellow Pages Ghost, who has been a soul for many years, and his resentment has gradually accumulated, and he has begun to cause trouble to the world."

"The fourth type is called the Black Shadow Ghost, a form in which those ghosts who are extremely resentful because of their vain death continue to devour new souls and gradually grow. The power is infinite, the power is incomparable, and it is very dangerous. ”

"The fifth type is called the powerful ghosts, most of them are extremely resentful, mana, violent and unpredictable."

"The sixth type is called the green ghost, which has the highest mana, can instantly absorb people's spiritual energy, make people die, and can also transform into a human body, pass through walls and walls, and can appear during the day to move objects to achieve their goals."

Thanks to the yin ghost that appeared in front of him, he was just a starving ghost and didn't have the intention of harming people.

"It turned out to be a white-shirted ghost, it seems that he didn't kill Ah Ku."

Lin Zheng, who was knocking on the bowl, watched the white-shirted ghost emerge from the ground and stood numbly in the middle of the crossroads.

As for why he knew that the starving ghost in front of him belonged to the white-shirted ghost, because he had been familiar with some mysterious books that his father Lin Yuantian had shown him since he was a child.

Seeing the appearance of the white-shirted ghost, Lin Zheng was slightly disappointed in his heart.

However, the hundreds of thousands of visitors in the live broadcast room were very excited, excited, and frantically brushed the barrage.

"Look, look! The street lights are flickering on and off, and the traffic lights are constantly changing! ”

"Yin wind! Yin wind! It must be a ghost! ”

"The anchor is so awesome! I actually summoned a ghost! ”

A barrage of cheers filled the live broadcast room, but it lasted for more than ten seconds, and the entire live broadcast room suddenly fell silent.
