Chapter 146: The Origin of the Wraith

The face of the Guanyin statue is not hideous, but very ordinary.

The reason why I find it strange is because this face is so familiar, I seem to have seen it somewhere.

Not in temples or frescoes, but in another very ordinary place.

Suddenly, the candle flame jumped, and the surroundings lit up violently.

And I instantly remembered when I had seen this face.

Not so long ago, one could even say, a few hours ago.

Isn't this the face of the pregnant woman who is still pregnant?

I held a candle and looked closely at the statue.

That's right, it's her face.

Even this face has the melancholy of the pregnant woman.

It's just that...... Who would build a temple for a pregnant woman? And use her face as a statue of Guanyin?

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration crossed my mind, and I thought of a possibility.

If...... Isn't this temple real?

What if this so-called Guanyin statue is an illusion of something?

"Xiaobao, Xiaobao......" The voice outside became more urgent, as if urging life, constantly calling for negative breath.

And the negative breath shrank into the corner of the wall, and did not dare to move.

I asked, "Have you ever been caught by a ghost outside?" ”

Negative nodded his head.

I asked, "What happens if you get caught?" ”

"It will dip me in the river, and it will be cold and dark, and it will be very painful." But after dawn they disappear, and I will take advantage of this time to hide. ”

"But I can't hide far, and they'll find me after dark."

I asked, "Who built this temple?" ”

Negative shook his head.

I pointed to the statue of Guanyin: "Do you know who this person is?" ”

Negative breath said, "Isn't this Guanyin?" ”

I said, "Look at her face, do you feel anything else?" ”

Negative interest hesitated and said, "When I see this face, I feel very kind and secure. But why I feel this way, I can't say. ”

I breathed a sigh of relief and said to the negative, "It's normal for you to feel this way, and if I'm not mistaken, it's your mother." ”

Negative looked at me in surprise.

I pointed to the call outside the door and said, "The three ghosts outside, although their voices can't distinguish between men and women, I can feel that they are actually female ghosts." ”

Negative nodded slowly.

Obviously, he felt the same way.

I pointed to the crack in the door and said, "Look here." ”

By the candlelight, the two of us could clearly see that the crack in the door and the floor were wet.

I said to the negative, "It's a very typical trait of water spirits, they are drowned. ”

Negative Interest said thoughtfully: "But why did they arrest me? I don't know them, no grudges, why is that? ”

I laughed, "You really don't know them?" Ghosts are the most grudgeful, maybe you know them, but you don't know. ”

Negative interest is still at a loss.

At this time, I already had a guess in my mind, but it had not been confirmed, so I didn't tell the negative interest.

I walked around the temple and found a dilapidated window.

The windows are covered with cobwebs.

I leaned against the window, cautiously looking out.

I saw that the river seemed to have swelled a lot, and it had overflowed to the temple of Guanyin.

And above the water, there are three strange-looking boats.

It seems that the three water ghosts came by boat.

It's just that now the boat is empty, because the water ghosts are surrounding the temple and banging on the wooden door.

As I was observing, a face suddenly appeared outside the window, staring straight at me. I was startled and hurriedly retreated.

This face has been blistered, white and white, indescribably hideous.

Its gaze stayed on me after I left the window.

I could feel that there was endless grief and unwillingness in this gaze.

I couldn't help but feel furious in my heart: this water ghost ...... It's scary.

I walked to a dead end and cut off the sight of the water ghosts.

After a few seconds, when I looked at the window again, I couldn't see it anymore.

I whispered to the negative, "Do you know where these water ghosts' lair is?" Where are they hiding during the day? ”

Negative Interest hesitated for a moment and said, "There is a small island in the middle of the river, and I don't know very well. ”

I nodded, "Don't make a noise, I'm going to go over there and have a look." ”

Negative Interest hesitated and said, "It's too dangerous, isn't it?" ”

I smiled, "What is this?" I've seen all the big scenes. ”

I went to the window again and carefully removed the broken window.

In fact, what really protects the negative interest is not this temple at all, but the Guanyin in the temple.

Even if I tear down the gate, the water ghosts won't dare to come in.

It's just that standing face to face with them is too weird.

I removed the window and cautiously slipped out.

I saw three dark figures, gathered around the door, sneering along the crack in the door, making a series of frightening sounds.

I ignored them, but crept up to the boat and boarded it.

When I got on the boat, I made a pulp with my hands, and with a slight slide, the boat shook slightly, and then floated towards the center of the river.

I could feel as if there was something in the middle of the river that was attracting the boat and guiding it through.

I didn't care about the boat anymore, but stood on it and let it drift forward.

Then I suddenly realized that I was not on a boat at all, but a small coffin.

It didn't take long for a small island to appear in front of me.

I took a deep breath and bit the tip of my tongue to clear my mind a little.

At this time, the surrounding scenery changed slightly.

But the change lasted less than a second before it returned to its original state.

I was stunned: I just came back to my senses?

It stands to reason that after falling into a hallucination, even biting the tip of your tongue is useless.

But I just took a bite and saw it for what it really was.

Could it be that the resentment in the neighborhood has thinned out?

Suddenly, I figured out what was going on, those three resentful ghosts had gone to find trouble with negative interest.

They were far away from here, so the resentment around them was getting thinner and thinner, and I had a chance to see the real face of this place.

I thought about it, bit my finger and smeared the blood from my fingertips on my eyelids.

When I opened my eyes again, the world around me turned blood red.

However, the world soon returned to normal.

The boat beneath me was gone, and I was standing in the icy water.

And there was no island in front of me at all, just a few large rocks and debris in between.

This is the true face of this river.

I turned around and looked in the direction of the Guanyin Temple.

There was no sign of any buildings in sight, and I could only see a vast fog that completely enveloped it.

I took a deep breath and walked slowly to the middle of the stones.

I took advantage of the faint moonlight in the sky and began to clean up the clutter.

Most of them are twigs and aquatic plants, and some are household waste.

Soon, my hand touched a small box.

My heart fluttered, and I knew I was right.

I picked up the box.

The shape of this box is clearly the coffin I was riding in. It's just a few sizes smaller.

I put the box on the stone and opened it.

Inside was a baby.

The baby's whole body was swollen with bubbles, but it was strangely not rotten.

I fumbled for a while longer, and soon found another box, then a third.

After that, there was nothing.

The three boxes are very similar, and someone should have put the baby in the box and thrown it into the water.

The boxes drifted along the current, and finally got stuck here by the pile of stones.

As I was studying the box, I suddenly felt a chill around me, as if the temperature had dropped by several degrees.

Immediately after, the baby in the box sat up sharply and grabbed my arm.

I snorted in fright and stepped back.

Who knew that in the two boxes next to me, a baby also sat up and hugged my arm hard.

I tried to shake them off, but they held so tightly that I couldn't.

I took a deep breath and silently muttered: hallucinations, all hallucinations. These are all hallucinations......

Suddenly, the baby spoke.

It said to me in a hoarse voice: "It's not a hallucination, we're back......"
