Chapter 2 is about me

1

My surname is Kui, this word is relatively rare, there are three pronunciations, one with "rain", this pronunciation is almost useless, and it is not in many dictionaries. One with "Wei", you can do a surname, but I don't have this surname, it is said that the family that reads the sound of "Wei" is a big branch, there is an ancient saying "the world is a Kui, the hometown Luzishui." That is to say, Luzishui Village, Puwa Township, Fangshan District, southwest suburbs of Beijing, is the gathering place of this surname, and I heard that there is also an ancestral tomb of the Kui family. This Kui in my surname, pronounced as "Kui", my name is Kui Yin Yin, this name sounds very infiltrating, right, no way, who let us be born in 1989, and occupy the lunar year, the moon, the cloudy day. I really like my name, I guess there are no people in China who have the same name as me, we are unique, and it is more in line with Miss Ben's maverick character.

In fact, my surname is very strange, my mother's surname is Jiang, my father's surname is Zhang, my grandfather's surname is Zhang, but my surname is Kui, I actually followed my grandmother's surname, I don't quite understand which ancestor founded our family's genealogy, this senior is not a brain smoke.

Compared with my strange name, there is one more miraculous thing in me, which is a secret - I can see ghosts!

I was yin and yang, and this incident was discovered by my grandmother when I was five years old, and at that time my grandmother had not yet moved to the United States to live with us, and I had no concept of life and death when I was young. Once I went out with my mother and grandma, I saw Grandpa Zhang next door, he often bought me a lot of colorful candy to come to my house, looking for grandpa to play chess, I shouted to him "Grandpa Zhang, good", as a result, my mother was so frightened that she threw all the five catties of eggs in her hand on the ground and smashed them. Of course I didn't know, Grandpa Zhang had passed away, and that day was his first seventh, the day he returned home.

After that, my life was more boring, I was rarely able to go out alone, and even went to and from school, and the person in charge of picking me up was Feng's mother, who was the next person in our family, and it was said that she was my grandmother's maid. She eats at the same table with us, lives in a guest bedroom, watches plays with grandma, plays chess with grandpa, in short, I feel that she is a best friend of grandma, a cheeky best friend who does not marry in our house for a lifetime. Sending me to and from school was probably the most tiring job she did.

Mama Feng is actually very good-looking, a little similar to my grandma, but when she is younger, I estimate that she is not as old as my grandma, but I have never asked her age, how come she is sixty. Maybe it's a prejudice about her being cheeky, I don't talk to her, she doesn't like to laugh, she always has a cold face, I keep my head down on the way to and from school, walk fast, she doesn't speak, just follow me a meter behind.

The change in my attitude towards Feng's mother is because of one thing, that was when I was in the second grade, once I crossed the street, I stopped and waited for the traffic light, and suddenly I didn't know where a group of children about the same age as me came, and they rushed forward and crowded, and squeezed me onto the road, and the speeding car rushed over, and the driver didn't have time to step on the brakes. The moment I fell, I turned my head and saw the children, who were either missing arms or legs, and two of their heads were still flat. I was so frightened that I couldn't even scream, when Feng Ma rushed out of nowhere, grabbed me and rolled to the side, and the car drove past my ear. Mama Feng's strength was very strong, but her movements were very gentle, and I was hardly injured, except for a little skin on my legs. Mother Feng helped me up, patted the soil off my body, and said something in my ear, it was the first time she talked to me, and her voice was very good, she said, "Go to school, it's okay."

Since then, I've grown fond of Mama Feng, and that night I brewed a cup of hot chocolate and wanted to give it to her, which was my favorite drink. Who would have thought that my grandmother was also in Feng's mother's house, so I heard the following strange conversation while hiding at the door.

Grandma said, "I've worked hard for you today, do you see what you met?"

Feng Ma said: "Don't get in the way, a few slinged spirits, the little girl is the life of the big yin, there is no talisman, and these things will definitely be recruited." Thanks to them, the little girl's talisman is almost done. ”

Grandma: "But today's fall has damaged your five years of yin life, and it's not worth it."

Feng's mother: "What's not worth it, it's worth it if the little girl is fine."

Grandma: "That child's life is hard, how can it be so easy to get into trouble."

Feng's mother: "Just count your heart."

They couldn't finish talking, and I was already sleepy, so I went back to my room with the cold cocoa. After drinking cocoa, lying on the bed, I fell asleep in a daze, in my dream I dreamed of today's children who squeezed me, I dreamed that they apologized to me, all of them were about the same age as me, lovely children, and I also dreamed of Feng's mother, she led the children out of my sight, I looked for a long time and didn't find them, turned over, I had other dreams, and I felt that I slept very well this night.

Life flies very quickly, when I was 22 years old, it seemed like a blink of an eye, I graduated from the university in Shanghai, I planned to stay in Shanghai, so my mother sold our old house in Beijing and bought two apartments in excellent locations, one was rented out, and one was reserved for me to live in when I came back to Beijing. She and her father took her grandparents and Feng's mother to the United States. Because my parents did a good job in the "furniture" business passed down by my grandfather, I went to the United States to build a branch, and finally I became a free man, which is exactly what I wanted.

Before I left for the United States, my grandmother and I had an in-depth conversation, and by this time I had gradually learned some secrets about our family.

My grandmother is also yin and yang-eyed, relying on this special skill to fight with others a lot when she was young, that is, tomb robbing. Later, I met my grandfather, so I washed my hands and started a furniture business, saying that it was furniture, but in fact, it was all antique furniture, or many of them were extremely precious wood carved ornaments. I have seen a rich businessman come to see my grandmother, and bought an old paperweight for my grandmother to practice calligraphy, which is a hundred-year-old Huanghuali wood carved Pixiu, and the price he paid was enough for me to buy a floor in Beijing's Second Ring Road, but that thing I used it to press the book cover when I was young, and it is not a rare object in my house.

Grandma said that her surname is Kui, and she also follows her grandmother's surname, and it is said that only people with yin and yang eyes in the family can have this surname, as for why, she has never figured it out in her life. She didn't know where the genealogy was lost now, only that the rules had to be passed on.

I slowly also learned one thing, Mama Feng, it's a ghost. She is a ghost puppet, she was found by grandma's grandma, the ghost puppet is like your second life, you made an agreement with the ghost puppet, if you encounter an extremely dangerous situation, you can use the ghost puppet to offset a death, but this can only be an agreement that can be made by people with yin and yang eyes, otherwise, if everyone can, wouldn't it be a big mess in the world.

I don't have a puppet yet, and I don't know what kind of agreement to make, but grandma said that this matter depends on chance, and there will be one when it should be. I always feel that being a ghost puppet is a very disadvantaged thing, but Feng's mother said no, this is a matter of accumulating merits, accumulating more yin virtues, and you can have a good birth in the next life. I then asked her, so there is still such a thing as reincarnation? She didn't talk to her. She didn't say that I wouldn't ask, this was what I learned from my grandmother, in the end, people and ghosts have different paths, and some things should not be too serious.

Grandma gave me a very old work diary, which is still the kind of vertical flipping, which records the phone numbers of many people, as well as classification, public security, taxation, discipline inspection, and I even saw that there is a classification of Zhongnanhai. Could it be that he sells cigarettes? At the time, I didn't think much of it, so I read it hastily. Grandma told me to save all the numbers on it, but don't call it, saying that it was all a difficult little ghost. I looked at the names on it and felt that a few of them were very familiar, but when I checked it later, they were all high-ranking officials at that time, and I was scared into a cold sweat. Mamma Mia, Grandma, are you an agent?! Grandma didn't explain so much to me, she said that she was too lazy to waste her mouth, so I asked Grandpa Yun if I had anything, which is all for later.

Finally, Grandma took out a very beautiful crystal bottle, a bit the size of a bottle of eye drops, and carved it into the shape of a bird, which was very beautiful, but could not say its name, a bit like a swan, but more expensive than a swan. There was a faint blue liquid inside, and I don't know what it was. Grandma brought it to me with her own hands, and Feng's mother kept instructing on the side, little girl, don't pick it, this is your family's life. I looked at the little bottle, there were no seams, no openings, and I didn't know how the liquid got in.

After my family left, I began to prepare for the things that the elders had told me in Shanghai. I purchased a quaint European-style western-style building on the Bund, the first floor is a tea room, when my father returned to China, he made an appointment here to meet some old customers, study the purchase and shipment, and I was not interested in their adult business. My parents are ordinary people, so naturally they won't do anything to go to the ground, but their business methods are really first-class. On the second floor, I decorated it in a fashionable way, made it like a bar, and set up a studio to help people get rid of ghosts.

I already have yin and yang eyes, and I have the world qualification certificate of free fighting, coupled with Feng's mother's private teaching, the artist is bold, so I started the business of eliminating ghosts and towns for others. Many customers don't believe me when they see that I am young, and that my office is not full of gossip and charms like ordinary Kobe. But we rely on our ability to speak, I have survived the ghost baby who was aborted, the ghost of a century-old house that was afraid of demolition, and the rat who became a sperm alone under the collapsed ancient temple...... After a long time, my reputation has also sounded, and now I have my own "career", look at my college classmates who are still struggling to find a job, sometimes I really wake up laughing when I sleep.

Half a year passed in a flash, and at the beginning of 2013, I sorted out the phone book that my grandmother gave me and saw a name: Old Man Yun.

couldn't help laughing, Grandpa Yun always made Grandma angry, and it was no wonder that Grandma refused to write his name in the phone book. However, grandma has explained before, let me go to Grandpa Yun if I have something, and it can be regarded as greeting the old friend for her, without further ado, I also have a few things I want to ask him, picked a 20-year-old bamboo leaf green, and drove to Yunfu in the old city.
