Chapter 9: Peace Charms

When I got home, I found that my stomach didn't hurt anymore. Maybe compared to the fear of seeing a ghost, this stomach ache is nothing at all.

I just never thought I could see ghosts. I was terrified, and suddenly remembered the little girl I had just seen on the road. I don't know why, but I always feel like I'm in danger. I didn't sleep all night. I kept my head under the covers all night. Because I don't know if I'll see a ghost when I open my eyes. Dominated by fear, I was on the verge of collapse.

When I woke up in the morning, my mother was already on her way to work. I'm home alone and I'm always a little scared. I didn't even dare to look in the mirror when I went to the toilet. Soon, I was out the door. Today's sun is beautiful and warm, but my heart is as cold as a low temperature. I walked down the street in despair, not knowing where to go. I felt like my legs were out of control, and I looked a little crazy.

While crossing the street, a car suddenly drove towards me. Just then, someone suddenly pulled me back from the brink of death. I crashed into the man's arms. I looked up all of a sudden, but I couldn't help but be stunned.

It's him! That white, tall boy I met in the hallway last time I was late!

"Are you alright?" He asked with concern.

His eyes looked like a galaxy flowing in the night. I don't know how long I looked at each other like this, and I vaguely felt that my face was hot.

"It's okay, thank you." I ran away, embarrassed, and out of some indescribable feeling.

After walking a dozen or so steps, I couldn't help but look back at the place. The man was gone.

I continued walking, but before I knew it, I came to an alleyway. I was about to turn around and go home, but near the entrance of the alley, I saw a large sign in front of a store. It reads "Divine Reckoning". There was only a small door open, and there seemed to be smoke coming out of it. I suddenly felt the urge to go in and have a look. After so many days of bad luck, I felt more and more that something was wrong.

I thought as I walked over a little involuntarily. As soon as I approached the door, there was a smell of sandalwood.

I looked inside curiously, and the light inside was dim, so I couldn't see it clearly. Just as I was hesitating to go in, I suddenly heard someone inside cough twice. Immediately afterward, the man spoke: "You can exorcise demons and spirits, you can ask about marriage, study, or birth, old age, sickness and death." Want to come in and have a look? ”

I was a little hesitant and apprehensive. What should I do if I encounter a scammer?

"You are here today for a reason. I just felt a bad breath coming from you. If you don't have the gods to protect you, your luck will get worse and worse. He said again without hurry.

I was stunned for a moment, thought about it and walked in the door with the mentality of giving it a try. As soon as I entered, I saw a man sitting on a stool in the room, and he sat there motionless without looking up. It's really strange, just now, how did he see me?

He gestured to the bench across from him and motioned for me to sit down. I looked at him and saw that he was still with his head down. Due to the light, I couldn't see his face clearly, but I could only vaguely see his thin face. There were a lot of strange things in the house, and there was a statue of a god that was offered next to it.

"Master, I feel like I've been out of the ordinary lately. I see, as if I can see ghosts. I sat across from him and whispered.

"You've opened your eyes to heaven." The master took a sip of tea and replied slowly.

"Sky Eye?" I remembered that Wang Ming said before that I don't have a heavenly eye. How is it now that there is one?

"Yes. In fact, everyone has a third eye, which is the eye of the sky. However, some people are born with it, and some people will not have it until a certain opportunity. It's all fate. When you come to me, do you feel at peace? The master finally raised his head, looked at me and asked.

If he hadn't asked, I probably wouldn't have noticed. Indeed, after coming here, I seem to have settled down a lot.

"A little."

"Generally, people who are too weak are easy to open their eyes. You wait. With that, he pulled out a triangular yellow paper bag from the drawer of an old wooden table and brought it to me. While mysteriously said, "This is a peace charm, you need to carry it with you." Can exorcise ghosts. ”

I accepted it in disbelief. I was about to say thank you, but suddenly I remembered that fortune telling asks for money. I left home in the morning and didn't have much money with me.

"How much does this cost? I didn't go out with much cash. I asked, a little worried.

"You take it back and try it first. If you want money, don't rush. If you think it's useful, you can come to me next time to get the charm. We'll talk about the price when the time comes. The master said generously.

For a while, I felt quite moved in my heart. After saying thank you, I went home.
