Chapter 37: The Vigil

I don't need to say that I know about it, I just want to ask why.

But Su Che didn't answer me, just looked at the mess in the room, and then said, "Let's clean it up first, it's dirty and messy, and it makes people uncomfortable." ”

"Hey, you guy, if you come back for a few minutes at night, you might not be able to see the two of us, and it should be your business to clean up the room, right? Think of it as if you were compensating us. Lin Yue pouted and said to Su Che.

Su Che was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "It's indeed my fault, then you rest first, and I'll clean it up." ”

I didn't say anything, just walked to the corner and picked up the broom and dustpan, trying to sweep up the three carrion corpses and the ashes left by the burning of the hanged man, but Su Che's warm palm held his arm.

"I'll come." Su Che said lightly and snatched the broom in my hand.

Lin Yue and I sat at the head of the bed and watched him busy cleaning up for a while, the stench in the room had dissipated, and the ashes on the ground had been swept away, Lin Yue asked him: "Can you always talk about it now?" ”

"Say what?" Su Che closed the door, pulled over the chair and sat down in front of us and asked.

"Nonsense, of course someone wants to deal with us?" Lin Yue gave him a blank look.

Su Che smiled and said that this matter has nothing to do with Lin Yue, and the hanged ghost is coming for me.

It's been a long time since I moved into the apartment and I haven't encountered a ghost who has come to find me, but I didn't expect to meet it on the first night back in the village.

is still a powerful guy who makes me and Lin Yue helpless, the doubts in my heart are really heavy, and I looked at Su Che and asked him what this was for.

Su Che shook his head and smiled bitterly, saying that he had never given up looking for the answer to this matter since he knew me, but now it seems that the person who wants to deal with me is very hidden, and he has never found any clues.

I feel helpless, this is the fourth time that a ghost has come against me, right? Is there a secret in me? Why are they so interested in me?

Su Che looked at my expression and comforted me not to think so much, to hurry up and make myself stronger, so that I would not have the ability to protect myself if I encountered any attacks in the future.

Lin Yue was very unhappy when he heard this: "Su Che, how can you say that, Jiang Cha doesn't recruit anyone to provoke anyone, she always encounters such a thing, why does she have to work hard to make herself strong, can't you protect her all the time?" ”

"Of course I don't mean that, you also saw the situation today, what if I still don't be by Jiang Cha's side next time?" Su Che explained with a wry smile.

I grabbed Lin Yue, who still wanted to blame him: "Su Che is not to blame for this, I still have to find the reason from myself, maybe my physique, or my background, there must be some secrets, right?" ”

Lin Yue looked at me and pursed his lips, the complaints against Su Che had not yet dissipated, and now I spoke to him again, and said sourly: "Okay, I don't bother to take care of the affairs of the two of you, it's okay to blame you or blame him, I hope that next time there is such a thing, you can still turn evil into good luck." ”

I was blushed by her words, glanced at Su Che embarrassedly, and found that he was looking at me with a smile, so I quickly lowered my head, and only said that I would definitely work harder to learn Dao in the future.

Lin Yue thought about it for a long time and suddenly became interested in my life experience, and said no, let her father help check it, if I don't unlock the secrets on my body, I'm afraid that I will continue to encounter attacks from demons and monsters in the future, which is really annoying, at least my safety is not guaranteed.

I didn't expect Lin Yue to want to use the power of her family, I haven't seen her father for a year, and now I'm going to alarm him because of my affairs? I don't think it's appropriate.

Su Che asked us not to think about that for the time being, it was still early in the morning, he asked us to sleep for a while, and then went out.

But who can still sleep, Lin Yue and I whispered for a long time in the bed, and finally took a nap before dawn.

I was woken up by Su Che in the morning, he had already made breakfast, and was waiting for us to get up and wash up and come to eat.

During the meal, Lin Yue was still thinking about what happened last night, and after a while, he was afraid, and asked Su Che why he didn't go to that Murong Yu and Lu to help, and find out who was beating me.

Su Che said that he had already looked for it, but he couldn't find the answer.

Lin Yue chewed the steamed bun in his mouth fiercely, muttering that you are all waste.

I didn't know what to say, so I had to bow my head and eat my breakfast silently, but I was thinking about Wang Lin's affairs in my heart.

Lin Yue may have forgotten about this matter, and I didn't mention it to Su Che, but it has been buried in my heart like a pimple, whenever I think of her looking at my cold eyes, I always feel uncomfortable for a while, when will these grievances be resolved?

On the second and third days, there was nothing to do, and Lin Yuewo and I didn't go anywhere at home, because we didn't want to see the people in this village, and there was nothing interesting on the surrounding mountains, so we could only stay at home.

The seventh and a half of the new year finally arrived, and at noon Su Che made a sumptuous meal, because today is not only the day of my vigil, but also my birthday.

In order to celebrate my birthday, Lin Yue also sang me a happy birthday song, saying that I am now sixteen years old, can I already have a round room with Su Che? Su Che and I both blushed.

Lin Yue has been fighting hard to accompany me to the vigil from the beginning, but not only Su Che disagreed, but I also politely rejected her.

When she was eating, she brought up this matter again, and I had to say: "Yue Yue, this matter is really not something you can go to if you want to, it is said that tonight is the day when the ghost door is closed, and the yin qi is the heaviest day of the year, my physique is special and can bear it, and it is not good for your health to go." ”

"But what if something strikes you again?" Lin Yue asked uncomfortably with a pout.

I smiled: "It's okay, although tonight's yin qi is the heaviest, but the ghosts don't dare to come out to make trouble, not to mention Murong Yu and Wei are here, haven't they already promised to come back tonight?" ”

"But I'm just not at ease." Lin Yue pouted like a little girl.

But if I can't let her go, I can't, and I have no way to persuade her, so I have to resolutely refuse her.

In the afternoon, the village chief came to the house on a special trip, put down the incense and candles and other supplies to be used in the evening with an expressionless face, and said coldly: "Go early, don't delay the hour." After saying that, he left without looking back.

I'm used to the indifference of the people in the village, and I don't care about Lin Yue when he says that they are all ungrateful guys, this matter was originally my promise, and I will do it if I promise, and the other attitudes have nothing to do with me, and I don't need their gratitude, I just want to have a clear conscience.

Su Che didn't know where to go again, when Lin Yue sent me out, he pitifully said that he would be scared to sleep alone at night, I smiled and knew that this girl was still making her heart, so I asked her to sleep well with the lamp, and fell asleep early, and I was already back when she woke up.

Saying goodbye to Lin Yue, I walked to the ancestral shrine with incense candles and fire paper, and now that the sun is about to set, I will prepare the vigil program before it gets dark, and light the incense candles and fire paper.

I remembered that at this time last year, I encountered a prank led by Wang Lin during the vigil, there shouldn't be such a boring person this year, right?

When I came to the ancestral hall, I unexpectedly saw Murong Yu and Wei, the two of them standing at the door as if waiting for me.

After saying hello, I asked them what they were doing, and the two of them looked around and said that they were going to prepare for the moon viewing.

I didn't expect the two of them to do this to me, and a warmth rose in my heart, but I didn't show it, and went straight into the room where the ancestral shrine placed the tablet.

With Murong Yu and Wei here, you must be able to spend tonight safely, right? I thought as I lit a candle.

It was dark, there was no movement outside, and I sat on the futon and closed my eyes and thought about my thoughts.

The temperature is decreasing little by little, the yin energy is beginning to get heavier, the ancestral shrine is no more than the dwellings, it is originally a place to worship the ancestors, and the yin energy produced will naturally be more, my body can feel the change in temperature, but I don't care.

It's not the first time I've kept vigil here, I'm used to this kind of environment, I just sat quietly, and by the way, I practiced the exercises given to me by Uncle Qingcang.

I don't know what time it was, but I suddenly noticed something was wrong.

Suddenly there was a faint sound of footsteps in my ears, I thought it was Murong Yu or Wei who came to see me, but when I turned around, I didn't find anything.

Maybe it's quiet, so I'm hallucinating, right? I told myself this, but there was still a faint uneasiness in my heart.

The next second, someone suddenly blew in my ear.

I jumped up immediately, and when I turned my head to look, I still didn't find anything.

I knew that something had come to me again, and I didn't expect this guy to be so bold as to come out and make trouble in the middle of July, and although the ghosts were most active at this time, they would be punished the most severely if they made trouble.

I held the talisman in my hand and looked at every corner of the ancestral shrine by the candlelight, and I didn't find anything unusual, but I knew that something was watching me in the dark or invisibly.

Because my body felt uncomfortable, and I could feel the numbness of the vicious gaze in my skin.

But it didn't show up, and I couldn't do anything about it, so I sat down again, closed my eyes cross-legged, and pretended to be doing it again, but my ears were pricked up to listen carefully to the movements in the room.

There was another sound of footsteps, and two or three meters to my left, I didn't even open my eyes and threw the thunder talisman in my hand over there, making a crisp snapping sound.

When I turned my head again, my mouth opened wide in surprise.
