Night was falling, and no one else dared to approach the haunted house, which was shrouded in gloomy air.

I held the yellow talisman I had drawn with cinnabar in my hand, and walked slowly around the courtyard in a circle, pasting yellow talismans along the road wherever the imp could escape.

It can be said that this little imp is capable of more than I imagined, and that's a fact.

Until now, I'm still not sure if I'll be able to catch and take that imp away today. In order not to let him hurt others after angering him, I didn't even bring Jiang Yifeng into the courtyard. It was only under the pretext that I let him watch the door, and not let anyone else break in and ruin my business, and I was able to leave him outside.

Hu Qifu's home has been turned over by an unknown number of people at this time, but the overall appearance is similar to the last time I left.

The yin and ghost didn't seem to be that heavy, and I cautiously walked into the room, searching around for the familiar shadow. However, to my disappointment, after looking around, I still found nothing.

Is he no longer here? So where will he go? Still at my house? Or did you go somewhere else?

I was distraught, and the more I searched, the more unsettled my heart became.

He's gone?

Why don't you go?

Looking around, I retreated.

But just as my steps were back, a childlike voice suddenly sounded in the darkness.

"Are you here for me? Alone? ”

I had never heard that voice before, but I somehow felt that it was very familiar to the person who spoke it.

I thought about it for a moment and replied tentatively, "I don't know if you're the person I'm looking for, but I'm here to find someone." I came looking for a lost child, but I didn't know ...... Isn't it you? ”

The voice was gone, and silence returned.

I stood there silently, not moving, for I could feel that the chilly ghost that had come with him was still there, that is, he had not left yet, but was just considering my words.

I don't know how long it was, but the innocent voice asked again: "Alone?" ”

"Two people." I didn't think about it, so I replied.

In fact, this answer is not that I am afraid, but deliberately said that it was two people who gave themselves courage. In fact, I know that the little ghost should know better than me, although Jiang Yifeng is outside the door, if something happens to me inside, he won't have time to come in, let alone save me.

The reason why I answered the little ghost like this is just that he has been paying attention to me, and he must know that I am not here alone today, in that case, why should I lie to him alone?

The voice was gone again, and this time, it was noticeably longer than the previous one. I wasn't in a hurry, just stood there quietly and waited for his response.

I'm sure as long as he's gone, he's fully likely to agree to me.

"And where are you taking me?" I don't know if it's my delusion, but I think the voice is a little closer. He looked a little distance away from me just now, but now, his voice seemed to be in my ears.

"Take you to my house." I replied, "I will offer you incense to help you wash away your sins and be reincarnated." I just don't know, are you willing to go back with me? ”

"Hehe, hehehe~~"

In the cold air, there was a child's shrill and hollow laughter, which made people feel creepy. At that moment, I felt even colder on my body.

"There was a guy who said something similar to me before, and I always thought you were different! But now, I feel like you're all the same! ”

The voice was filled with a thick resentment and anger, and it only took a moment of effort to pour out wantonly.

I resisted the urge to turn around and run, as for my face, I didn't need to look at it, I knew that it was already frozen at this time, and I asked in the direction of his voice: "The person you are talking about, is it Hu Qifu?" ”

"You know him, too!" The voice laughed twice, sounding even more eerie, "Yes, that's him!" He lied to me! He also said he wanted to help me, but he just took advantage of me! ”

"So you killed their family of three? And a stranger? ”

"Three? Hum. The voice smiled grimly, "Their family is not three, but four!" The guy surnamed Hu also raised a little ghost before, but his ability was too poor, and he didn't dare to resist the surnamed Hu with me, so I also killed him! As for the unlucky man? It's him who deserves to die! He saw me, and I couldn't keep him! ”

"Just because he saw you?" I can't understand this little ghost's thoughts, so to speak, Tian Zhengyang's death is really unjust. I frowned, and I couldn't help but feel angry in my heart, "What about me?" I've seen you too, and you're going to kill me too? ”

The voice was gone again, and the air seemed to freeze suddenly.

Instead of waiting like the previous two times, I chose to take a step forward and yelled in the direction where the voice had finally disappeared: "You hesitate? Isn't it? You don't really want to kill! I know that you have a poor background, I know that you have a grudge in your heart, and I also know that the people who die at your hands may not be innocent people, and some of them have hurt you fiercely. Killing is not your thing, and sin is not your nature, so why do you have to disguise yourself like this? ”

"Don't worry about it!" The voice sounded angry, yelling at me angrily.

I couldn't back down until this time, and then I said to him: "Since you don't have to worry about me, then why are you always pestering me?" Don't say you don't! It's not once or twice that I've noticed you around me. ”

"I ...... I'm just ......" The voice seemed a little understated.

I know that this is the time to give up. No matter how ruthless he is, he is still a child in the final analysis. Even though he has been boosted by Ge Laohan and cultivated by Hu Qifu, he has accelerated his growth to the current state, but his heart is still a child less than a year old. I believe that I can take advantage of this opportunity to convince him.

So, before I had time to think about it, I said to him, "Since you're always around me, you must know what I'm doing." Letting the deceased rest in peace is what I should do as a coffin bearer. I really want to help you, too! I don't want more innocent people to be hurt because of your state, and at the same time, I also hope that every deceased person who passes through my hands can truly rest in peace, reincarnate as soon as possible, and start a new life. Instead of living in the dark and being a ghost, why don't you want to be a human sooner rather than later through hard work? ”

"Will you help me?" The imp's tone was clearly loose.

Without hesitation, I replied to him, "Come back with me and promise me not to do anything unreasonable again." Although my ability is also limited, I promise you that as long as you are willing to go back with me and keep the agreement, then I will do my best to help you. ”

"You're a good guy." The imp's voice was soft, as if he was afraid to disturb something.

I opened the net bag in my hand, which was specially prepared for ghost hunting. In order to prevent any accidents along the way, I had to take these precautions in advance.

The little ghost didn't hesitate much, and the little shadow flickered in front of me for a moment, and then got into the net bag.

But just as I was about to seal the bag, he suddenly asked me, "Little coffin, have you guessed who I am?" ”
