Chapter Twenty-Four: Wang Man Is Afraid of Me?

"Old lady early!"

Xue Chen bowed respectfully and saluted, raising a harmless smile, and the old man with a childish face opposite him also returned him a doting smile.

I really think that the old people in this family are quite amiable, except that Du Lao's attitude towards Xue Chen is a little worse.

The old lady stared at me and asked, "Sister of the Lin family, why is your complexion worse than my old woman?" ”

"I didn't sleep well!" I'll be honest.

The old lady smiled and shook her head: "This habit is not good, it has to be changed!" ”

I didn't make a sound, I lowered my head in embarrassment, I didn't want to change it, but ...... The concubine can't do it!

"By the way, how is Wang Man?" I looked up and asked.

"Where's your bell?" The old lady asked.

I suddenly remembered that the copper bell was still in Zhang Wenbin's hand, and I didn't know what he did with it.

"Old lady, I put the brass bell in someone else's, I'll go find it back!"

As soon as I turned around, the old lady stopped me: "Wait, it's already coming back on its own!" ”

I was stunned, it was really a dog skin plaster, and I couldn't shake it off, so I had to say, "Then, I'll go back to the house to find it!" ”

"Jingle ~ Bell ~ Bell ~" - I paused and looked at Xue Chen. When he saw me looking at him, he looked confused, but suddenly frowned, and whispered, "She's coming!" ”

I was dejected and said, "I know! ”

The sudden chill slowly came from behind me, and I turned around and didn't see Wang Man's presence at first sight. And when my gaze moved downward, out of instinct, I quickly walked towards the old lady and pulled it tightly

With her loose short sleeves.

The old lady stretched out her withered hand, patted me lightly on the back of my hand, and asked in a very calm tone, "Is this scared?" ”

I looked at the old lady, interpreting the words "frightened" with her entire facial features, and I couldn't close my eyes, but her expression was so calm.

Wang Man curled up on the ground, and if it weren't for the white, already shady chiffon dress, I would have barely recognized her. Her face, as well as her exposed skin, was grayish-black and dry

The epidermis is festering and falling off little by little, like a porcelain doll that is cracking; And her dark eyes, no, they can't be called eyes anymore, just two black holes embedded in the face, bottomless, look at me

Get one’s dander up.

She ...... How could she be? I turned my head away, not daring to look directly at Wang Man again.

The old lady looked at me meaningfully, and replied, "Although she forcibly took the body of a living person, it is not like this, she must have violated some taboo and been punished!" ”

"Punishment?" I deliberately avoided the direction Wang Man was in, she reminded me of the kind of corpse that had been burned dry, and I felt the urge to vomit.

"It should ...... Similar to burning at the stake, I also heard the master say it. The old lady muttered.

"Can fire deal with ghosts?" I asked with some excitement, wondering if I could "drive away ghosts with fire" in the future?

The old lady smiled coldly: "If it is a burned soul, it may be afraid of this ordinary fire, but it can't hurt the ghost." ”

"Then she ......" I stubbornly looked at Wang Man again, her face was really enough for me to have nightmares for a few days. But thinking of Xiao Ting, who was affected by her, I had some complaints in my heart, and took two steps forward

, and squatted down to ask her, "Wang Man, are you ...... What the hell happened to you? How could he suddenly get on Xiao Ting's body? ”

Wang Man didn't seem to hear what I said, but she didn't react at all, she seemed to be a little ...... Afraid?

I got up and said to the old lady, "What does she seem to be afraid of?" ”

The old lady didn't answer, just looked at me. I was confused, so I had to look at the third person in the room, Xue Chen shook his head as always, after all, he couldn't see anything!

Alas, I reluctantly took another step forward, but I didn't expect Wang Man's reaction to intensify, and when I wanted to get closer, she suddenly disappeared again!

I looked at the old lady in disbelief, and she was staring at meβ€”what do you mean? What are you looking at me for? Could it be that she is afraid of me?

I hurried back to the old lady and asked, "What next?" ”

The old lady hesitated for a moment, and said with a compassionate face: "Let her family do a supernatural ritual for her, if her resentment can be dissipated, maybe she can survive the yin and yang road, otherwise she can only be wiped out." ”

"Yin Yang Road"? This is the second time I've heard the old lady mention this name, and I suspect it's probably "Huangquan Road" or something!

I didn't have the heart to investigate, so I squatted beside the old lady dejectedly, and looked at her pitifully: "Old lady, can you teach me so that I can't see those things?" ”

The old lady reached out and touched my forehead, but there was a hint of doubt on her face: "Do you remember when you will see them?" ”

They? I realized that the old lady was talking about "ghosts" and replied, "Just the other day, oh, by the way, I had a high fever and had a dream, and it was in the dream that I saw that auntie for the first time, that is

Tian Xiu. ”

"Dreams?" The old lady muttered, shook her head for a while, and said negatively: "No, your yin and yang eyes must be open when you beat your mother's womb, and there must be a master who has sealed ...... for you."

"Yin and Yang Eyes"? Damn, there are people who are born to see hell! I had a chill all over my body, but the old lady said that the master ...... I really can't remember anyone around me who can be called a "master" and have been sealed for me

"Yin and Yang Eyes"?! I thought to myself, this kind of great kindness, he should really show up early!

"Sister of the Lin family, did you have a bizarre experience when you were a child?" The old lady's voice pulled back my thoughts that had gone astray. I guess the most bizarre experience of our lives is not this time of hell?

I tried to recall, and found that nothing special really happened when I was a child, it was just unremarkable. Suddenly, I remembered something, and I didn't know if it didn't fit the definition of "bizarre".

"Old lady, I have amnesia!" I say it solemnly.

"Amnesia?" Xue Chen repeated.

I rolled my eyes and said very seriously: "I went back to the countryside to see my grandmother in the year of the college entrance examination, fell from the car, and I didn't remember anything for about ten days after I woke up!" Is this bizarre? ”

The old lady asked, "Have you ever asked about the period of amnesia?" ”

I shook my head and said sadly, "I haven't had time to go back since, I haven't seen my grandma for years......"

The old lady nodded and instructed: "You have been tired for the past two days, have a good rest, and when this matter passes, you can take the time to come to me, and I will teach you some self-defense skills!" With that, she got up from her chair, "I'll see."

Look at that girl, you can do whatever you have to do! ”

The old lady didn't let Xue Chen help her, and walked out on her own, leaving me and Xue Chen looking at each other in the room, and I asked him, "What should I do next?" ”

Xue Chen came over and helped me up from the ground, and said with a relaxed face: "Eat, drink!" ”

I really think this guy ...... Underwhelmed!
