"I..."

"I don't want to hold you accountable for playing me. But you're going to tell me what's wrong with Grandpa Yang? Did he get caught up in a ghost? And you're an exorcist, aren't you? ”

"What did you just see?"

"I saw Grandpa Yang jumping and jumping like a young man, and laughing very weirdly, listening to the echo. And then here you are. I haven't seen Grandpa Yang eat or drink water in the past month. I only saw the contents of the gourd where he was drinking, and the smell was terrible. ”

"Maybe it's wine."

"But I never saw him drink since I was a kid. And I deliberately leaned over to smell it, and it wasn't the same smell. You make an excuse to go out alone, and you still have a knife, I didn't figure out what you wanted to do at first, but then I figured out that as soon as you saw Grandpa Yang, your nose kept twitching, you should be smelling the smell; At that time, your eyes were still shining red under the lenses of your glasses, so they must have been yin and yang, right? Tell me what you see. You can save Grandpa Yang, right?"

"You already know a lot about that. Then look me in the eye and I'll tell you all. Your Grandpa Yang is actually dead. I've seen it, and his heart has long since stopped, his blood has dried up, and now he is filled with mercury. He wore makeup to hide the corruption on his face. The wine gourd is filled with formaldehyde, which is formalin. In short, he was dead. I can't save him, you don't have to count on it. "The Writing Wheel Eye Illusion is activated with the line of sight, and at the same time, the words are used to increase the psychological pressure of the recipient and enhance the effect of the illusion," Old Mr. Yang's soul is now trapped in his corpse by an [evil spirit]. The most I can do is to overtake his ascension. Mr. Yang, whom we saw in the morning, can basically be said to be a walking corpse. I am a psychic, and it is my job to exorcise evil spirits. You've already known so much, now forget what I just said and what you've reasoned about, and take a taxi home. ”

"No, how can I not participate in such a meaningful thing? I also want to save Grandpa Yang and let him be buried in peace. ”

"Obedient, go back, go back! The good girl will be home by half-past eight. Guan Gu stared at the red eyes and seduced, "Ahhhhh Why haven't you been hypnotized by my illusion yet? Hey, is there any politeness, how can you close your eyes when talking to others? Hurry up and open it for me! ”

Two steps away, Nuo Lan, whose eyes were closed, stood there vividly, her lips shining with a lustrous sheen: "Don't open your eyes." I've seen your eyes glow red, and fools know that you have a problem with your eyes. I don't want to open it. If you don't take me today, I'll call the Chinese Academy of Sciences and ask them to take you back for research. ”

"Wow, you don't have to be so ruthless, right?"

"Who told you to just trick me. It's so interesting, ah no, I mean something so meaningful, how can I not be involved? ”

"Don't make a fuss, open your eyes quickly!"

"No, I don't. Who knows if you're going to do anything weird. Ah, what smells so bad! Nuo Lan, who was in a state of closed eyes, hurriedly pinched his nose with his hand under the invasion of a sewer smell. But he was pulled away by a strong hand, and the smoky smell rushed straight to his nose, and the boy's breath hit the earlobe, it was Guan Gu! He's leaning in!

"I've been a pen pal for so long, so I should always have this basic trust, right? Don't worry, I'm just trying to make you forget something you shouldn't know. Thanks to your grandfather Yang, I basically walked through the sewers of the entire concession. With the words, the breath shifted from the earlobe, to the cheek, and finally to the lips! Guan Gu's entire upper body is pasted over, what the hell is he going to do?

"Open up, you!" As he spoke, he put his hand on Nuolan's eyelids, trying to force them open. It turned out that the spoiling was not meant to ...... The electric shocker behind Nuolan was put back in his pocket, and he turned his hand to take the anti-wolf spray in the other pocket!

The eyelids have been stretched out for more than half of the time, but the talented Nuo Lan did not give up resistance, she rolled her eyes, and her entire pupil was hidden behind the upper eyelids! Guan Gu had to make persistent efforts to further dismantle Nuolan's defenses, and only heard a "poof", and then Guan Gu began to scream: "Ah! My eyes! Eye! Blind! ”

The impeccable logical girl, like Hercules Hercules who defeated Medusa, relied on a bottle of anti-wolf spray to complete the Jedi counterattack.

"Hmph, now I'm open. How about the three pepper sprays I made myself (authentic Sichuan Chaotian pepper, Mexican white pepper extract, Equatorial Guinea peppercorns, powdered and sifted, and then mixed with an appropriate amount of cool oil), is it powerful? There seemed to be a demonic tail wagging behind the playful little girl, "Now your eyes can't hypnotize me." Honestly take me with you to banish the evil spirits! ”

"Can you not be so willful, it is really dangerous to expel evil spirits! Feelings: The image of the quiet woman Wenqing in your previous letter is all pretended! I feel like I'm meeting you for the first time today. Guan Gu rubbed his eyes helplessly and said.

"Each other, each other. Everyone's not finished. I just learned today that you're a psychic. You know my nature thoroughly. So the cooperation is pleasant, and I hope there will be no secrets between us in the future. Let's go! Grandpa Yang is still waiting for us to rescue him. ”

"We're just normal friends of the opposite sex."

"Yes, I study in the city's third female middle school, and you are my only friend of the same age and the opposite sex. So of course we have to be honest with each other. ”

(Far away, a certain big brother squatting in front of the monitor took out a small notebook and recorded it: Guan Gu's magical flirting cheats.) At the right time, make it look like you want to make an intimate move with a different person, but you stop it in an unexpected situation, so as to provoke the other party and break down the other party's psychological defense step by step. To summarize is to be emotional, to stop at reason, and to indulge in love. The big guy seemed to have realized some new truth, his hands trembled, and he even wrote crookedly, "Shizuka~". The voice, God knows what came to his mind. ）

"Defeated by your logic. Say okay first, if something happens, squat behind me. Guan Gu closed his eyes and strode forward, although he couldn't use his eyes for the time being, but under his spiritual vision, Guan Gu could still walk on the ground.

"Got it. Let's go! The girl who opened the door to the new world excitedly caught up with her "guide". Maybe she was fit for such an exciting life.

。。。。。。。

No. 2050 North Sichuan Road, second floor, Mr. Yang's residence. This is an old house with one bedroom, one living room and one bathroom without a kitchen, with a total area of less than 60 square meters. This gloomy old house not only smells of rotten wood from the old house, but also smells of antiseptic spices such as star anise, and the most important thing to say is the strong smell of formalin. These smells are mixed together, and they are even worse than the smell on Guan Gu's body. But as if unexpectedly, there was no danger.

After priing open the old-fashioned lock with the instant noodles and magic power enhancement that he carried with him, Guan Gu took Nuo Lan into the house cautiously, not even daring to turn on the light. Guan Gu didn't want to admit that he wanted to scare Nuo Lan because he didn't need the light for the time being. It's a pity that this little girl is surprisingly calm. Guan Gu had already grabbed the knife in his hand, and his magic power exploded, mixed with his body energy, and he rushed open the eight gates to the fourth gate. Although the current one is Nagasawa Mitoru and not a super spirit body slasher, it is believed that the high-density compressed magic power wielded by the forty times strengthened body power slash can still be used to block and kill gods and Buddhas.

When I walked to the door of the bathroom on high alert, the "pop" lights were on.

"It's Lan Lan who came to see Grandpa Yang, and he brought a boyfriend. Looks like there's a lot of ability. Whether Grandpa Yang can be liberated today or not is up to you. It was Old Man Yang who spoke, and that "Mario" seemed to have been playing with Guan Gu for too long in the afternoon, and he was so tired that he had already "fallen asleep" in Grandpa Yang's corpse.

"It's Grandpa Yang who is talking, and there's nothing wrong with that. The evil spirit seemed to be temporarily unconscious. Sekiya explained to Nuolan.

"Grandpa Yang, what's wrong with you? Is there anything we can help you with? Knowing that it was his own relatives, although he was facing a corpse and two ghosts, Nuo Lan did not show any fear.

"Before I talk about this, Grandpa wants to tell you one last story. Come with grandpa. The old gentleman turned a few times and flipped a few times on the faucet in the bathroom, and a small door was opened in the bathroom against the load-bearing wall, and behind it was a passage with a sliding rod, and the old gentleman slid down the sliding rod with agility. Listen to the sound of him landing on the ground, and the place where he landed was under the bank on the first floor. Guan Gu was still watching to see if there was any danger, and through his own judgment, Nuo Lan, who felt that there was no problem, had already slipped down. Helpless, Guan Gu could only hold the knife and jump down directly, at this height he didn't need to slow down the rod.

Below is an 80-square-meter underground library room, with bookshelves on all four walls, storing a lot of books, which should have been stored here when the Uchiyama Bookstore was still in business, and this secret room should have been once part of the Uchiyama Bookstore. The old gentleman leaned softly on a recliner in the corner, motioned to Guan Gu and Nuo Lan to find a place to sit down, and couldn't wait to tell the last and first story of his life. The Story of a Plumber Brother:

When they were young, Yang Peng and Mali were abandoned orphans, and many of the orphans of the time lived with many of them at the time in Xujiahui's Nursery (an orphanage during the Republic of China) (located in today's Pacific Department Store). Unlike other children, Yang Peng's father was a Japanese ronin (a Japanese gangster in Shanghai) who learned some Japanese as a child, while Mali's father was a Belarusian (a fugitive nobleman) who fled to Shanghai. Although they are all mixed-race, Mali looks basically no different from Westerners, but despite this, he can't enter the concession without a serious identity document, and his big man in the concession looks no different from the average Chinese. It's just a white man's face.

At that time, the situation in Shanghai was turbulent, and it was still difficult for children with families to live, and orphans without families lived even harder. The nursery is also basically unattended. It's all big kids, taking care of the little ones. From time to time, they also face the threat of human traffickers. In order to get some food for their younger siblings, the two brothers would often go out with the other older children to find food. Begging and stealing have all been tried. However, in the Chinese world at that time, there was basically no surplus food at the homes of ordinary people, and the rich old men could not enter the homes at all. This group of half-grown people hit the idea into the relatively rich concession. Relying on Yang Peng's Japanese and Mali's white face, he really got a lot of food, and let his younger brothers and sisters have a few full meals.

Inconvenient to bring things into the rental industry without identification? It's easy, drill the sewer! The sewers built by foreigners are spacious, and these half-sized children can easily get in by removing a few iron fences and drilling in the east and drilling in the west.

According to the old gentleman, the days when he and his friends went into the sewers in the concession to steal food were actually the happiest days of his life. Unfortunately, the good times did not last long, after the Japanese launched the war of aggression against China, the plane bombed and blew down the nursery, burying them all underneath, leaving only a long and narrow drainage pipe to enter and exit. It stands to reason that they should all move as soon as possible, but they have nowhere to go because of the chaos outside. The nursery has collapsed, and no bad people will come here to dig and look for them. At that time, Mr. Yang, who was old and serious, felt that it was actually the safest to stay like this. They are originally children who don't have the pain of their parents, like ghosts living in this world that no one pays attention to. It's probably safer to live underground as a ghost now. Their days seem to be back to normal, and they seem to be a little safer than before.

The older children, when they have the opportunity, still go to the concession with him and Mali to steal things and come back to eat. Because Mr. Yang can speak Japanese, it seems that their harvest is easier every time. Mali, a fun-loving eldest child, also took advantage of the majesty of "Little Taijun" Yang Peng to trick a set of clothes, a red hat, a red shirt, and blue bib pants from a Russian plumber. Brown protective shoes.

On that day, Mali first went down the sewer back to the nursery with his food. The planes bombed as usual, but unfortunately blew up the remaining space under the nursery. Mali and his younger siblings were crushed into the ground, and by the time Yang Peng and the others dug them out, they were all dead. The rest of the children in the nursery were scattered. Just when Yang Peng regretted and despaired the most, hating why he didn't transfer his younger siblings out in the first place, Mali came back.

Of course, it was the ghost of Mali who returned. Mr. Yang Peng should also have the talent of a psychic. After that, a legend began to circulate in the Shanghai Concession that a black-haired plumber wearing a red hat, a red shirt, and blue suspenders, who called himself Mario, knew how to escape and assassinate Japanese officers everywhere in the concession.

During an arrest operation, Yang Peng, who was cornered, was fortunate to be rescued by Mr. Uchiyama Wanzo, the owner of Uchiyama Bookstore, a Sino-Japanese friend, and hid in the current secret room. Since then, Mr. Yang Peng has been lurking in the hinterland of the Japanese army as the adopted son and clerk of Mr. Uchiyama Kanzo.

With the announcement of Neon's surrender and the evacuation of overseas Chinese from Shanghai, the legend of Mario, a plumber who escaped from the sky, spread all the way to Japan along with the messages of the expatriates. Nintendo's developers took this character and used it to create the classic Mario game.

Mr. Yang Peng read a lot of books in Neishan Bookstore, and listened to a lot of stories after so many years of ups and downs. Although he has never been married in his life, the old gentleman feels that his life has been completed, everything that should be done has been done, and the sins that should be repented have also been repented. I felt that everything could be put down, and finally passed away last month.

But unlike Mr. Yang, who was still a half-sized man when he died, Mali was not yet mentally mature. After death, there seems to be a trend of elvefulness (the most prominent character of the soul body or the pursuit of traits enhances alienation and prolongs the existence of the spirit), and the personality has become more and more playful, and he does not want his brother to die and be reincarnated. After years of death, Mali, who has become a goblin, rejected his brother's soul and took control of the corpse in turn, relying on the mercury and preservatives he bought to keep their lives on the same track. Until today, I met Sekiya.

"Young man, there's nothing bad about Mali, it's just that it hasn't grown up yet. The joke he made with you today was also my joke for him. I told him, you are a psychic like us, a little buddy. I'm going to play a little game with you. He didn't have much of a heart, so he believed it. Because playing with you in the afternoon, the consumption is too great, and he is already asleep. Mr. Yang continued in a tone of explaining the aftermath, "I did this mainly to lure you over. I've been playing for eighty-five years, and I'm really tired of playing, and I can't play anymore. I want to give my brother to you, and please treat him as I took care of him. Can I ask you that? ”

"Although, it's true that you're playing quite embarrassed. But I love your story. I'll admit that you and your brother are very interesting people. Guan Gu paused, looked at Nuo Lan, and then looked back at Old Mr. Yang, "I'm willing to help take care of your younger brother." ”

"Is that so? Then I'm relieved. Silly boy, I'm leaving. You've got a snack. Don't joke too much with others, get along well. After saying this, Mr. Yang's body did not move. His soul flew out, and in the golden pillar of light, he manifested his form, and now even Nuo Lan could see him with the naked eye. The old gentleman slowly rose in the pillar of light that reached the sky, and his face gradually returned to his youth, to the young plumber who still went around digging into the sewers to steal food for his younger siblings. There seemed to be laughter in the distance, and his younger siblings had come to pick him up.

"Guan Gu, is that Guitian?"

"Psychic people are generally called Buddhas, and they can only be achieved by being satisfied and letting go of all afflictions. We should be happy for him, right, do you think it's smart Mario? ”

Indeed, the plumber goblin named Mali had woken up a long time ago, or rather, he hadn't slept at all. "If that's Buddhahood, that's good. I never wanted to play Yang Peng, that fool died. For me, the experience of death was the most terrifying moment of my life, so I kept pretending to drag him willfully. If returning to heaven is such an easy thing, I am not afraid. ”

"So you want to become a Buddha now? Do you want me to send you? ”

"Don't be grinning. I'm going to have to play it again. I'm Mali. You can also call me Mario. In the words of the neon people, it should be: please take care of me in the future! ”

"I'm Guan Gu, Guan Gu is magical, please take care of me, Mario-kun!"

"And me, and me, I'm Nuolan, please take care of me!"

"Nolan?!Oh my God, how did you hear us, and how did you see Mario's ?!!! just now?"

"I don't know, just after seeing Grandpa Yang become a Buddha, I can suddenly see and hear. Mario-kun, am I a genius?"

"yes, yes. We Lanlan are geniuses, and Grandpa Mario knew it when you were younger. So you have a psychic talent now, right? What to do? Do you want to change the master again? ”

"How can that be, you're a man, Nuo Lan is a girl!!!!!"
