Chapter 18 I miss playing hide and seek when I was a child, hugging my female classmates blindfolded...
Han Lin often wondered if Xia Min would also be a spirit, maybe an extremely high-level evil spirit that could survive well in human society in disguise as an adult.
It was half past eleven in the middle of the night, and after Xia Min used the demon's whisper to persuade Han Lin for an hour, Han Lin finally took Xia Min to the outskirts of his hometown.
The village where Han Lin's family is located is in the southern suburbs, which is farther south than the old town where Xia Min's family is located, and it is more sparsely populated.
Although it is the 21st century, the village has only reached the point where the whole village is electrified, and the style of the houses is still the same as in the early days of liberation.
Anyone who has lived in the countryside knows that farmers generally have their own land, and they need to get up early every day to take care of it, so almost every household goes to bed early, and many times, when the night life in the city begins at eight or nine o'clock, the countryside basically turns off the lights and sleeps.
At this moment, the whole village was extremely cold, there were no street lights, only a few houses still had a faint light through the windows, and occasionally a few dog barks, and there was a slight scolding, and then fell silent again.
The only few houses where the lights are still on are Han Lin's home.
Han Lin's mood at the moment was very complicated, not happy, but he was a little excited in his heart, and there was hesitation between his eyebrows.
Many times, when a person finally wants to do what he has in mind, although he has practiced it countless times in his heart, he will still be a little at a loss, because this matter is too important to them.
"Later, at twelve o'clock, if they are asleep, you first reach out from under the bed and pull their feet, a few more times, and each time you must catch the moment when they are about to fall asleep."
"Then make the sound of children laughing in the closet, after all, I told them that the ring was in the place where you used to hide and seek when you were a child."
"And then let the floor bleed, the windows showed blood, and the kitchen made that very ethereal sound of water, anyway, how did it come about, you know?"
Xia Min snapped his fingers and said them to Han Lin one by one.
Although Han Lin had listened to Xia Min's chatter no less than five times during the day and night, she still listened carefully, remembering little by little these things that she had never thought of before.
"But why does it have to be twelve?"
Xia Min looked at the time on the newly bought mobile phone, and said solemnly: "Life needs a little sense of ritual, and all the spirits are in place on time at twelve o'clock." ”
"Look at it, whether it is Chinese or foreign, it is from one to twelve o'clock, what mirrors, water tanks, and the bottom of the bed start to be restless, these are all standard templates."
Han Lin didn't seem to understand: "Then can't I come out after 12, everyone thinks that I won't come out, but I'm a little later, let them experience anticipation to disappointment and then surprise, will it be more sudden?" ”
Qing is better than blue, Xia Min nodded with satisfaction: "Good understanding, you go first, I'm waiting for you here!" ”
Looking at Han Lin's departing back, Xia Min shook his head: "Silly girl, people think you will come out at twelve o'clock in two days." ”
……
"What should I do, what should I do, the money-losing goods won't let us go!"
Han Lin's mother didn't sleep, she walked around the house with an anxious and panicked face.
On the small wooden table in the living room was a black plastic bag, bulging in the bag, revealing a pink corner, and it turned out to be a pile of brand-new 100-dollar bills.
Han Lin's father was still silent, sitting by the window and smoking dry cigarettes, and spit two mouthfuls of phlegm out of the window from time to time.
Han Lin's younger brother was upset by Han Lin's mother, and said impatiently: "Don't shake, how many times have I told you, this is the 21st century, and I still believe in these ghosts and gods, even our university theology teachers say that there are no ghosts and gods in the world, just things imagined by people." ”
Han Lin's father, who had not spoken, suddenly sneered: "You still know that you are a college student, what is the use of you in college, if you don't have your sister, you won't have any clothes!" ”
Han Lin's younger brother's face was gloomy, this was his reverse scale, but he was poked hard by his father, who had always been honest, and his eyes towards his father were filled with a trace of resentment.
Han Lin's mother doesn't care about this, she only knows how to protect the calf: "You don't talk cool there, you don't have any fart skills, you still pretend to be when your son comes out of college, this is our own son!" You don't care about marrying a daughter-in-law, if you agree to marry the money-losing goods early and make some dowry money, it won't be like this, now it's okay, people are dead, and we have to spend money to bury it, you are good, you don't care about anything, you know to smoke your broken cigarette! ”
After saying this, seeing that Han Lin's father was indifferent, he still swallowed the clouds and spit out the fog, Han Lin's mother was angry, so she simply didn't look at him, and complained to her son worriedly.
"But how did you say that kid knew these things, he didn't know us at all, if it weren't for Tuomeng..."
Han Lin's mother wanted to speak and stopped, she looked for a day today, but she still didn't find the ring, and in two days Han Lin might really appear, she is really at a loss now.
Han Lin's younger brother stared at the 80,000 yuan on the table, after he heard that his mother was going to return the money to the big boss, he tried his best to dissuade him, he wanted the money no matter what.
This is actually their request, Han Lin's younger brother is a college student, and he also knows that this kind of car accident is unlikely to happen, and when he saw Minister Zhang's evasive eyes when facing them, he threatened his mother with the police, forcing Minister Zhang to admit the truth that he killed Han Lin, and asked him for hush money.
Before the hard-earned money was hot, he said that he would return it to others, which made him unbearable.
He was sure that there were no ghosts and gods in the world, but he didn't know why Xia Min knew these things.
The more Han Lin's younger brother thought about it, the more irritated he became, slapped the table hard, and scolded: "Damn, I know, it must be that the two of them knew each other before, this slut told everything about our family, Mom, you leaked the money again, and now this bastard wants to blackmail us, fuck!" ”
Han Lin's mother, who was reprimanded by her son, was not angry, but had a frightened and frightened expression when she did something wrong, and asked resignedly: "Then what should I do now?" ”
"What to do? This money must not be returned, if this kid simply wants money, then share him a little, and then go to the big boss to ask for it when the money is not enough, if this kid doesn't know what to do, he will make trouble, let him not mix in the unit, or beat, and throw him into the river if he doesn't work, anyway, this money can't be moved! ”
Brother Han Lin said viciously.
Han Lin's mother nodded, still a little worried, while Han Lin's father on the side sighed imperceptibly.
Looking at the time, Brother Han Lin got up, held the black plastic bag in his hand, and tried his best to sound as peaceful as possible: "It's not early, it's past twelve o'clock, Mom and Dad, go to sleep, let's go and cremate her body tomorrow." ”
After speaking, he walked into his room.
"Okay." Han Lin's mother nodded, and she didn't care about Han Lin's father, she got up and was about to turn around and leave.
At that moment, the lights in the room went out all at once.
"Another power outage?" Han Lin's mother muttered: "Old immortal, go tomorrow to see if the electrical box is burned out again." ”
After getting a low response, Han Lin's mother was about to leave, but she found that something was wrong.
It's so dark! Even if you don't have a light, you shouldn't lose your fingers!
Brother Han Lin suddenly scolded: "Grass, why is there so much water on the ground?" Leaking water in your home? ”
At this moment, Han Lin's father looked in the direction of the moon before, it was pitch black in front of him, and he couldn't see anything, and sighed softly: "Xiao Lin is back." ”
Han Lin's mother was inward-looking: "What Xiaolin, you... Don't talk nonsense, it's just a power outage, you go and see it now, hurry up! ”
Han Lin's younger brother's voice came: "Mom, why are you patting me on the shoulder?" ”
Han Lin's mother was puzzled, suddenly thought of something, and responded tremblingly: "No... It's not me..."
Just as Han Lin's younger brother was about to say something more, a little girl's laughter came.
"Mom and Dad, brother, I'm hiding, come and arrest me!"
"Don't-permiss-peek."
