I dreamed that I was locked up in a dark and closed place, I couldn't see anything, I couldn't hear anything, I reached out in horror and groped around, only to find that there were walls in eight directions, up and down, left and right, and on one wall, slowly a blurry white figure appeared, right in front of my eyes, more and more clear, more and more clear......

When I woke up, my clothes were soaked in cold sweat. I looked at the wall clock on the wall in a daze, only to realize that it was already past ten o'clock.

What a spooky dream! I wiped the cold sweat from my forehead, felt sticky and uncomfortable, so I took a shower and changed my clothes. During this process, the images from the dream kept echoing in my mind, and the more I thought about it, the more uneasy I felt, so I went to the Taoist priest and asked him to help analyze and analyze it.

The Taoist priest did drink too much last night, and now he is still asleep, I woke him up and he also attracted a complaint, I told him that there was something important to discuss, he washed his face and sobered up a little, before asking me what is the matter? I told him about the weird dream I had last night, and then asked him, "Hey, didn't you say on the plane that I might have a catastrophe in the near future?" Could it have something to do with this? ”

The Taoist priest frowned and thought about it, shook his head and said: "This Taoist master is not clear, your dreams are indeed a little weird, but dreams are all kinds of strange things, there are all kinds of things, if it is someone else, the Taoist master can still be counted as a hexagram, but you, the Taoist master really doesn't have the courage to try again, yesterday Lao Tzu almost went to talk to the ancestor about life ideals." ”

I saw that the Taoist priest didn't look like a liar, I couldn't help sighing, and suddenly remembered the call I received last night, when I was confused, and I didn't pay attention to who called, so I hurriedly took out my mobile phone to find the call record, and at a glance, I couldn't help but be stunned.

The call log shows that I received the call at 4:44 last night, and the call only went through for ten seconds, but what surprised me was the name of the caller ID, which turned out to be a very strange name: Mama Lin.

Mother Lin, that is, Lin Qiaoer's mother, a person who has died, the phone call, it turned out to be her, and I immediately felt a chill down my spine.

The Taoist priest looked at my ugly face and leaned over to ask me what was wrong. When I told him about the phone, he also felt stunned, but after all, the Taoist priest has rich experience and a lively brain, so he immediately patted me on the shoulder and said, "Don't think about it, this person is dead, and the relics must have been put away by relatives, maybe it was Lin Qiaoer who called you, calm down, you call Sister Lin immediately." ”

A word woke up the person in the dream, I hurriedly dialed Lin Qiaoer's number, but after calling, it still prompted to turn off the phone. My heart sank, to say that it was late last night, Lin Qiao'er had already slept, this is possible, but now it's almost eleven o'clock, she won't wake up yet, right?

I looked at the Taoist priest, who also frowned, and after thinking for a while, he suddenly asked me to continue calling, but this time it was changed to Lin's mother's number.

I groaned, froze in place, and hit the dead, which made me feel a little weak. Seeing that I was stunned, the Taoist priest scolded and coaxed the goods, grabbed the mobile phone and dialed the number, without hesitation at all. He pressed the speakerphone, and the movement on the other end of the phone came out clearly, and I held my breath and listened carefully. However, after waiting for more than a minute, no one answered there.

Since it can get through, it means that the mobile phone is still in use, as for no one answering, it may really be like the Taoist priest said, the mobile phone was kept as a relic, and the phone call last night may not indicate who did the prank.

I comforted myself like this, but I wasn't too scared, but this matter was always a pimple, and if I didn't check it clearly, I would be restless for the rest of the time, and besides, it was Sister Qiao'er's mother who died, so I should go to worship.

After discussing with the Taoist priest, we rushed to Lin Qiao'er's house on the same day. Lin Qiao'er is a local, her home is in a village on the outskirts of the city, and I have been there twice before, and it takes about three hours to get there by car.

We set off at two o'clock, arrived in the town two hours later, then wrapped a piece of bread, and spent more than an hour to reach the village where Lin Qiao'er's house was located, and when we got off the bus and entered the village, it was already six o'clock in the afternoon.

The village is very close to the metropolis, and it has developed rapidly in recent years, and every family has built small bungalows, which do not look like rural areas, but rather like a small town.

I've been here a few times before, and I know where her house is, so I don't have to ask for directions, and I came to a small three-story house after turning around, which is Lin Qiaoer's home.

As soon as he arrived at the door, a little boy wearing a yellow sweater, probably only six or seven years old, sneaked out of a corner behind the house, carrying a string of firecrackers in his hand, and his eyes were squirming around.

The ghostly appearance of the little hairy boy reminded me of what I looked like when I was a child, and I couldn't help but smile and say hello to him. The child is Lin Qiaoer's cousin, I met him when I first came, and then I brought him gifts every time I came to play, so he has always liked me.

My voice startled him, the little guy subconsciously stuffed the firecrackers in his hand into the crotch of his pants, I and the Taoist priest almost laughed, the Taoist priest said: "Which little kid, is this going to perform while running fried chickens?" ”

After the little ghost hid the firecrackers, he looked up at us, and when he saw that it was me, the little guy's dirty little face suddenly showed a look of surprise, and cheered: "Little brother, it's you!" ”

As he spoke, he pulled out the firecrackers hidden in the crotch of his pants again, and then happily ran to me, embarrassed and said, "Mom doesn't play with it, I secretly hide it." With that, he handed me the firecracker, meaning to let me play with him.

I sweated profusely, waved my hand, and asked him, "Where is your cousin?" Why does the door seem to be locked? ”

The door of Lin Qiaoer's house is closed, and the funeral union is pasted on the edge of the door, judging by the situation, the funeral should have been released, otherwise it is impossible to close the door.

The little ghost scratched his head, pointed to the mountain forest behind the house and said, "Sister Qiao and her parents went to the back mountain to worship my aunt, and I stole a string of firecrackers and sneaked back." ”

The Taoist priest and I both rolled our eyes, touched the little boy's head, and asked him to take us over, and when the little ghost heard that he was going to go back, he immediately showed a look of embarrassment, shook the firecracker in his hand, and said that he still wanted to play with firecrackers. I glared at him and scared him that if he didn't take me there, I would tell your parents about you stealing firecrackers, and he was suddenly anxious, showing a miserable look, but I didn't eat him with the Taoist priest, and he was out of line, and he was worried that I would really sue, so he agreed to lead the way.

Lin Qiao'er's house is located on the edge of the village, surrounded by farmland, and through the farmland, there is a lush barren mountain. The little ghost told me that her aunt was buried on a deserted slope not far away, where there were no trees, and that she could see it through the farmland, and that if he had passed, he would have been beaten, so let him go!

By this time we had passed through two-thirds of the farmland, and had seen the treeless slope of the barren land that he had spoken, and had also seen green smoke rising from that place, which was smoke from burning yellow paper, and it was easy to identify, and seeing that the little devil looked pitiful, he agreed. The little ghost slipped away as if he had been pardoned, and the Taoist priest and I did not delay, and hurriedly quickened our pace.

Soon, we walked through the farmland and found that there was a wide dirt road between the end of the farmland and the mountain, and the dirt road was littered with confetti left over from firecrackers and white paper money and mourning sticks. This is the trace left by the funeral, and now we don't have to worry about finding the way.

Following these traces, I soon saw Lin Qiao'er, dressed in plain white clothes, kneeling in front of a grave with a boy a few years younger than her, burning paper money, incense, candles and other sacrifices. There were still about thirty people on the side, and what was even more strange was that among these people, I also saw a Taoist priest with a mustache and a very obscene look.

The reason why he is sure that he is a Taoist priest is because he is wearing a cyan Taoist robe, which is very eye-catching in a group of people.

I leaned over and said to the Taoist priest, "Eh, you're with you below, go say hello?" ”

The Taoist priest's eyes widened, and he looked at the crowd in the col down the slope and snorted disdainfully: "Fart peers, the Taoist master knows that he is a swaggering fake when he looks at the tricks played by that bastard, damn it, the reputation of the Daomen is for this gang of garbage." ”

As he spoke, he strode down the hillside, looking at the Taoist priest's angry look, he said in his heart that it would be bad if he had a conflict with Lin Qiaoer's relatives, so he hurriedly followed.

Our arrival immediately attracted the attention of some people, and when they saw that we were new faces, they came up to us very vigilantly and asked us who we were and what we were going to do.

I just wanted to explain that the movement here had already attracted the attention of others, and Lin Qiao'er also looked over here, and immediately saw me and the Taoist priest. I saw a look of surprise on her face, and then immediately got up and walked over and explained to the middle-aged man who was interrogating us, "Uncle, they are my good friends, and my mother knows them!" ”

"Oh, it's my boyfriend, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, you see why you don't give me a notice when you come, you see this is a whole thing...... Alas, it's a pity, if the third sister can hold on for a few years, maybe she will be able to see you get married, hey, hurry, come over and stick to the incense. ”

I was embarrassed, I didn't expect the uncle to misunderstand, but Lin Qiaoer's explanation just now is indeed a little ambiguous, if she only said that I am his friend, the uncle may not misunderstand, but she just added to the snake and said that Mother Lin also knows me, and I do come to worship now, which is a bit reverie.

Lin Qiao'er's face was slightly pale because of sadness at this time, and a trace of blush rose because of the uncle's misunderstanding, obviously embarrassed, I wanted to explain, I was worried that the current situation was not suitable to say this, and Uncle Lin had already pulled me to incense.

I wondered, I came with a Taoist priest, why did Uncle Lin think I was Lin Qiaoer's boyfriend at a glance? Is it because the Taoist priest looks too obscene? I thought proudly in my heart, but soon, seeing the sadness of Mother Lin's tombstone washed away the pride in my heart, and I gave the deceased three pillars of incense with great reverence.
