Volume 1 When I Started in the Industry Chapter 6 Something Happened at Home
My memories of before the age of sixteen are blurry, and no matter how much I remember them, my mind is always like paste, chaotic, and I can't remember the slightest thing. One of the earliest things I can remember was about a paranormal incident with my cousin.
Like most sixteen or seventeen teenagers, the high school entrance examination is also a big headache for me. Entering a key middle school is like stepping into a key university with one foot, which is something that all students dream of. If you don't do well in the exam, you have to go into the society and find another way to make a living, but it is very difficult.
There were more than a dozen students in the classroom who were preparing to take the high school entrance examination, and those who were ready to work in the society had long since disappeared. The teacher in the class is also listless, all the things that should be taught have been handed in, and the ones who should have led the review have also been reviewed, and the remaining two weeks will depend on the tactics of the sea of questions. The classroom was so quiet that you could only hear the sound of writing with a pen.
The temperature of midsummer was like boiling water, not only hot, but also very stuffy. It was the most disappointing thing, and after the last class, I couldn't wait to go back to my grandmother's house. All afternoon, I was thinking about the big watermelon that my grandfather bought.
The watermelon is chilled in the refrigerator, and a few spoonfuls of white sugar are put on it, which is cool and sweet, and it feels very refreshing just thinking about it, and it seems to be able to sweep away a little bit of the heat. Thinking of this, the leg of the bicycle increased the force again, and the bicycle was like a galloping horse.
As soon as I arrived at my grandmother's house, I felt that the atmosphere was a little abnormal, usually no matter whether anyone was at home or not, the door was always open, why was the door closed tightly today? When I looked up, I saw that there was also a feather duster hanging on the door beam. This made me feel a little puzzled and a little surprised.
Pressing the doubts in my mind, I parked my bike on the side of the road and reached for the knocker on the gate.
I knocked on the big iron door, and then my grandmother's voice came.
"Who? It's coming, it's coming, don't knock, it's coming. ”
It wasn't long before the sound of the door opening reached my ears.
"Ah, who should I be, it turned out to be my eldest grandson, bastard, after school? Come in, but don't go into the Westinghouse. ”
"What's wrong, milk, what's the matter, what's wrong with Westinghouse?" I asked, a little confused
"Hey! Your little sister, she had an accident, she seemed to be rushed by something, and she made trouble all afternoon. ”
"What? My little sister rushed? What does it mean? And what feather dusters hang on the gate. "I was so confused that I didn't know what my grandmother was talking about.
"Okay, your child's family, grandma won't tell you anymore, you honestly go to the east house to stay, grandma will bring you watermelons." Grandma was a little helpless.
At that time, I was still in a rebellious period, and the more adults wouldn't let me do anything, the more I wanted to do the opposite. I didn't listen to my grandmother's instructions, and while my grandmother went to the second floor to get watermelons, I went to the backyard and quietly picked up the window of the Westroom.
I was stunned by the scene in front of me, and I saw the old aunt holding her little sister on the kang in the West House, her eyes were very red.
Xiaomei's behavior was even more bizarre, her whole body curled up, and her hands were pinched together in the shape of chicken claws. Her tongue was sticking out, and her mouth was whining. Just as I was staring blankly at my little sister's strange behavior, my little sister suddenly looked at me.
"Ahh I couldn't help but scream.
What kind of eyes were they, blood-red, the whites of the eyes could not be seen, the black eyes were in stark contrast with the blood-colored eyes, and they were terrifying, especially when she smiled at me. At that time, I felt that the three souls had gone to the seven spirits, and I couldn't help but cry out.
At this time, my grandmother came down from upstairs, holding half a watermelon, and as soon as she heard my cry, she rushed over.
"You bastard, didn't grandma say she wouldn't let you see it? You still see, hey, your sister is aiming for something, you are young, don't rush too, go to the East House. Grandma said with some concern.
"Milk, what's wrong with my little sister, why did it become like this?" I was a little worried.
"Hey, grandma doesn't know, it's okay at noon, and when I go down to the field in the afternoon, I'll let her play on the edge of the field by herself. When I came back, she and I had a stomachache and felt uncomfortable, so I took her home, thinking that you must have eaten too much watermelon at noon and caught a cold. ”
But as soon as she got home, she became a different person, crying and fussing, saying that the whole family had to die, and they all had to die. Your aunt came back, and when she saw that your little sister was like this, she hugged her, and your little sister said that she was covered with blood, and the house was full of blood. Isn't this right, your grandfather and your uncle went to the Daguan Village in Qingling Mountain to invite Mr. ”
"What kind of feather duster is hanging at the door? What's the use of that? I asked again.
"The elders said that if there is dirt in this house, you have to hang a feather duster to prevent more dirty things from coming in, and your grandfather let me hang it up. Alright, eldest grandson, you should go to the East House quickly, and if you are afraid, you can go back to your own house, and don't recruit you again. ”
"Grandma, I'm not leaving, I'm here with you, and I'll go back with them when my dad and their house come."
"Well, okay, eldest grandson, then you stay in this house with grandma, don't go to the Westinghouse, you have to listen to grandma, otherwise your mother will come back and I will let her clean you up." Grandma said uneasily.
Of course, I promised to come down, in fact, I also saw my little sister like this, I was a little scared, and I didn't dare to go home alone, after all, my parents would have to come back at eight or nine o'clock in the evening.
In the East House, I wrote my homework and fell asleep on the kang when I was a little sleepy. It wasn't until seven or eight o'clock in the evening that I was woken up by a cacophony of noises.
When I opened my eyes, I saw that my parents had come back and were sitting by the kang, with my grandmother and grandfather beside me. At this moment, a stranger came into my eyes. He wears an old-fashioned Lei Feng hat on his head and a light green military uniform, which is very retro and has a unique atmosphere of the sixties. A Chinese face is very majestic. He and his uncle sat on the sofa in the East House, as if they were talking about something, but they were too far away and the sound was too small for me to hear.
After a long time, the old man went out of the house and brought back a large round table.
"Mr. Liu, what else do you think?" The old man asked respectfully.
"Let's go get another bowl of well water and get a few pairs of old chopsticks." Mr. Liu said lightly.
The old man didn't say a word when he heard this, and went out of the house again.
This time, the uncle came back a little later, and the well water was fetched from the ancient well at the head of the village. In this era, all the villagers drink is tap water, and it is lucky that there is such an ancient well in the village.
Mr. Liu took out a few pieces of cut yellow paper, dipped his pen in cinnabar and drew them a few times, and instructed his uncle to paste them on the three walls of the West House, and one on the window, leaving only the door unposted. However, at the door he placed a small lantern made of red paper and did not light it.
Opening the door of the West House, Mr. Liu called his aunt out, leaving his cousin alone in the West House, and the sharp crying continued to sound, and the listeners couldn't help but get goosebumps.
Back in the East House, Mr. Liu turned out a sea bowl from the small back box he brought, wide at the top and narrow at the bottom, painted with black glaze, and a pair of yin and yang fish painted on the bottom of the bowl, which looked like an old object.
Then he poured the water from the well into it, and he held an old chopstick in his right hand and plunged it straight into the water. muttered in his mouth: "Relatives and relatives, clans and subordinates, stop when you hear the words!" As he spoke, his right hand loosened, and the chopsticks fell apart.
"Foxes and mice, all immortals, stop when you hear the words!" The chopsticks spread out again.
"Ownerless ghosts, unjust creditors, stop hearing the words!"
With a brush~, the chopsticks actually stood up, gathered but not scattered, and slowly rotated in the bowl.
"What kind of smoke soul is my Dao, it turns out to be an ownerless ghost, tell me why are you pestering this child." Mr. Liu said in a deep voice.
"Hehe~hehe~" A strange laugh came from Westinghouse.
"I know you're coming, but I'm not afraid of you, so if you don't believe it, just give it a try. It's a big deal, and this little girl's life will be mine! Haha~Haha~" This voice was a little poignant, it turned out to be a female ghost.
"She's just a child, why did she provoke you? You must know that tampering with mortals, but it is a great sin of the underworld, which is to go to the eighteen layers of hell. Don't leave quickly, wait for me to write a letter to you, and let you be reincarnated. Mr. Liu said bitterly.
"Hey~hey~ It's easy to please God, it's hard to send God, not to mention that I'm such a ghost. If you don't die, don't be big, your aunt and grandmother are not easy to get along with. The suppressed female voice sounded again.
"Right and wrong, there is cause and effect, since you don't want to go, you have to tell me the origin of this matter, if this girl really owes you, I won't interfere much." Mr. Liu asked tentatively.
"Woo woo ~ woo woo ~ I'm so miserable, I'm only in my twenties, and I was hit by a car and died, I'm not reconciled, why, why!" The female ghost said sadly.
"Huh? That's also for a reason, what does it have to do with this little girl, as the saying goes, there is a debtor who is wronged, why do you bother to pester this woman? Mr. Liu said in a deep voice.
"Hehe~Hehe~ Then I have to ask her father, every night when I come back from fishing, I pee on my grave, how can I not complain, how can I not hate! I complain, I hate, you people are alive and well, why do you want me to die! You have to die with me, you all have to die, you all have to die! Haha~Haha~" The female ghost said sadly.
"Alas! Why is that! Since you're stubborn, you're welcome. Mr. Liu sighed.
As he spoke, he made a sword finger with his left hand, stared angrily at the chopsticks in the bowl, and whispered in his mouth: "The spirit god is on the left, and the auspicious god is on the right. The sword pointed at the chopsticks, and slid quickly across the chopsticks, and picked up a yellow talisman in his right hand and pasted it.
"Ahh Old immortal, what did you do? Stop! The female ghost said sadly.
"Hmph, now that I know it, I know you with affection and reason. But you don't appreciate it, how can I spare you? Mr. Liu snorted coldly.
"Sir, please go around me again, I don't dare anymore, I don't dare anymore, it's the first time for me, for the sake of my poor background, let me go!" The female ghost begged for mercy.
"You can let it go, come out of the child's body first, and see the lantern at the door? Go ahead. Mr. Liu said in a deep voice.
When the female ghost heard this, she immediately jumped out of her cousin's body and went straight to the lantern at the door.
Poof~ With a slight light sound, the red paper lantern lit up, but it was not a red light, but a stream of green, like the bright light emitted by fireflies. Mr. Liu picked up the red paper lantern and pasted a yellow charm on it.
