Chapter 10: The Search for the Truth
"Uncle, helpββ!!" I was excited to see the old man in the white shop, just like seeing my own father, I ran up in a panic and hugged someone, the old man looked confused, stared at me for a long time and frowned, and then pulled me away.
The store manager's two rough hands touched my face full of cold sweat, and then said: "You kid has a trace of death on his face - I saw that your kid came to the store to buy a spirit talisman before, and I thought you were just avoiding evil spirits, so I saw that you really ran into a ghost?" β
Sister Wang was also startled when she heard the store manager's words, and hurriedly ran over to look at me worriedly and said, "Zhang Hang, you, did you really meet a ghost at Aunt Liu's house?" β
Although Sister Wang has been a nurse for a long time, to put it bluntly, she is still an ordinary middle-aged woman, and she seems to be scared a lot.
The task has not been completed yet, and I think it's best not to let more people know about this matter before it ends, so I waved my hand, barely squeezed out a smile and said: "No, it's just that it's too dark in the house, I've seen a lot of ghost stories recently, and besides, Aunt Liu's family has been rumored to be evil, so I scared myself, I didn't see any ghosts, hehe......"
I'm good at everything, but I'm not good at lying to people, who made me receive a strict education from my parents since I was a child, otherwise I wouldn't have been admitted to medical school. The old store manager looked at me with an embarrassed look and argued with Sister Wang, he looked at me deeply, but he didn't expose me.
At this time, there was some awkward footsteps upstairs, and I thought of the scene where Fazi and the female ghost were together, and my face turned pale and I suddenly hid behind the old store manager - but when I saw Fazi, I couldn't help but have some doubts in my heart.
The hair was dressed in shabby cloth clothes, and the jeans underneath were also dirty, just like the clothes of the workers after hard work. When this kid saw that there were suddenly a few more people in his house, he looked a little frightened, limped downstairs, and stared at us in a daze not far away.
"Yo, you're at home, didn't you say you were going out to work?"
Sister Wang knew Fazi, and she was a little surprised when she saw him at home, so she went up to greet him and warmed up. Fazi looked a little shy, smiled shyly and explained to Sister Wang in sign language. Sister Wang can understand sign language, nodded and turned to me to explain: "Fazi said that he was a little unwell and didn't go, and he has been sleeping on the second floor. β
ββ¦β¦οΌβ
I was stunned for a moment, but when I looked up at the simple gaze of my hair, it didn't seem like I was lying. Don't...... What I just saw was a hallucination? No, no, it's too, I just saw the female ghost who looked exactly like Xiuxiu, and almost died in her hands!
What is the relationship between the hair and the female ghost? Is it a conspiracy, or is the hair son also a victim? I had doubts in my heart, but at this time, two more people came outside the door, and it was Dongzi who pushed Aunt Liu, who was in a wheelchair, and came back from a walk.
I have already cleaned the house, Dongzi has also taken Aunt Liu out for a ride, and the task of being a volunteer has been completed, Dongzi and I should have gone back, but I first asked Dongzi and Sister Wang to wait for me outside, and I went to the second floor to take a look at the black plastic bag - I found that the plastic bag was gone, and the refrigerator was quietly opened to take a look, and there was nothing in it.
When I left, I saw the mother and son of the Liu family staring at me silently with expressionless faces, and finally closed the door.
Sister Wang told me that she thought about it and couldn't forget about Xiuxiu, so she was afraid that we would encounter something dangerous at Aunt Liu's house, so she brought her old friend, the manager of Baishidian, to Aunt Liu's house to find us. It is said that this old store manager used to be the head of the Qingfeng Taoist Temple, and he has some real skills.
Dongzi, this kid has been an atheist since before, so he seems to be a little dismissive of Sister Wang's words, I am actually an atheist myself, but who let me have seen the effect of the spirit rune with my own eyes, I have to believe it if I don't believe it.
Confirming that there was nothing wrong with Dongzi, Sister Wang also relieved her heart and left, and told me worriedly before leaving, saying that for the time being, don't spread the news of Xiuxiu, maybe the little girl really left and didn't want to do this volunteer?
I knew that Sister Wang was afraid of putting herself in because of this matter, so I promised Sister Wang not to worry, I wouldn't go outside and talk nonsense. Although I don't plan to spread the matter for the time being because of the mission, in fact, I really don't blame Sister Wang for pursuing this matter.
Sister Wang's heart is very straight, she is the type of straightforward and fast-talking, it is estimated that she made Xiuxiu angry, but she didn't want to hurt her, she just wanted to scare her, this time the matter made a mess that the person has disappeared, Sister Wang looks regretful, and it is estimated that she will have to pray that Xiuxiu can come back safely and soundly.
But I know that Xiuxiu is already dead, in the hands of that female ghost. The old manager of the Baishi shop, who came with Sister Wang, seemed to know that I had something to tell him, so he left with Sister Wang, but Dongzi and I saw the old store manager waiting for us on the way back.
After we walked in front of him, the old shopkeeper said, "You kid has met a ghost, and you have been marked by that ghost, and the next time you go to this place, she will find you immediately." β
Listening to the old store manager and I mentioned the matter of female ghosts straight to the point, I almost sat on the ground with a paralyzed ass, Dongzi saw me like this and didn't have a conscience to laugh, I was so angry that I kicked his big ass twice, and when this kid really saw a ghost, it is estimated that the reaction will be more violent than me, I can still watch a horror movie, but this kid doesn't even dare to ride the roller coaster.
At the moment, I also think there is nothing to hide, this is an old Taoist with real skills, so I told him what I had just encountered, the old store manager nodded after hearing it, and said: "That powerful ghost should not be underestimated, but you don't have to be too flustered, according to my judgment, that powerful ghost is probably an earthbound spirit, so as long as you don't approach that house again, you shouldn't be killed." β
After hearing this, I felt a little confused, and said curiously: "Old man, aren't the earthbound spirits gods?" β
The old store manager smiled and said: "What you said is the earth spirit, the earth spirit does belong to the gods, and the land lord and the mountain god, and the stone Buddha all belong to the same category, but the earth binding spirit is a kind of resentment, and the resentful ghost who is confined to an area is completely two natures." β
Dongzi looked at me and the old store manager with a bewildered look at the discussion about the demons and monsters very warmly, and immediately hugged his stomach and laughed, and said: "Uncle, you are really funny, this kid doesn't know which guy is crazy here, and you are still crazy with him?" Ha ha...... What the hell is there in this world, there are fewer comes. β
"Don't talk until you kid sees it, you don't know how scary that thing is." I glanced at Dongzi and didn't bother to pay attention to him. The old store manager smiled and stared at Dongzi for a long time, his cloudy eyes were unusually bright in the night. Dongzi made him stare a little hairy, laughed and laughed, the laughter became drier and drier, and finally avoided his gaze with some fear.
"Little fat man, have you ever done something wrong?" Suddenly, the old store manager said to Dongzi.
Dongzi was frightened, his eyes were a little fluttering, and he said: "I, I don't have it, uncle, don't deliberately scare me, I'm a good citizen." β
The old store manager didn't talk to him, but asked, "Little fat man, have you felt that your left shoulder has been pressing down a lot recently?" And I always can't sleep well at night, sweat profusely, and the more I sleep, the more confused I become? Are there any signs of nausea after waking up in the morning? β
I looked at Dongzi curiously, and saw that this kid's face was pale, and the cold sweat couldn't help but flow down, and I couldn't help but exclaim: "What's Dongzi, what did you kid really do?" β
Dongzi's face was uglier than crying, and he said to me: "I, I don't remember exactly, but the symptoms that the old man said, I really seem to have ...... in my body."
I hurriedly asked the old store manager, "Sir, can you help my friend take a look and see what is wrong with him?" Don't really let the ghost get on you, right? β
"Ghost upper body?!" When Dongzi heard me say this, he jumped three feet high, and immediately screamed and slapped his body hard.
But the old store manager changed his words, smiled, and said: "That's not true, but I have to remind you of this friend - too fat, lose weight, it's all fat diseases, haha......"
Dongzi and I stared at the old store manager in a daze and left with a smile, and it took a long time for Dongzi to realize that the old store manager was deliberately pretending to be a ghost to scare himself, and he was so angry that he wanted to go up and pull off his beard. I stopped Dongzi and whispered to him, "It's better than anything else that you're not possessed by a demon, but Dongzi, you kid really don't underestimate that old gentleman - the spirit rune he gave me really came in handy." β
ββ¦β¦ Really? Damn, hanger, did you really run into a ghost? β
Dongzi saw that my face was serious, and his face gradually became unnatural, and his fat cheeks trembled a little.
"Nonsense, let's hurry up and find the old gentleman, and get a few more spirit talismans in the store, that's a good thing, and it can be used to save your life if something happens."
"Your uncle! Feelings: You pulled me over just to do this evil thing? Lao Tzu has lived for so many years and has not even seen a ghost, but you asked the kid to pull it over and tell me that you have seen a ghost, don't do it! I'm gone! β
How many years have passed, Dongzi, this kid is still as timid as ever, as soon as he heard that I wasn't joking with him, his face turned pale with fright, I hurriedly grabbed him and said, "You calm down first, Dongzi, can't you listen to me?" Now that the matter is over, you can just follow me back and get the money. β
Dongzi was stunned and asked suspiciously, "It's over?" β
"Yes, it's over, you don't have to ask so much, it's inconvenient to tell you now, you can just go with me."
Hearing me say this, Dongzi gave up the struggle and followed me to the white shop to get the spirit talisman. But I only got three of these talismans from the old gentleman's hands, and it took some time to make the talismans, and now there are only these three left in his hand. I put all three on myself.
