He said he sent the painting back.

I was taken aback by An Ning's expression, and now when I heard what she said, I was relieved and felt glad for Wang Hongrui.

It's really right for him.

At my suggestion, An Ning turned the conversation mode to speakerphone.

"After yesterday's exhibition, I thought about it for a long time, and I felt that whether it was burned or sold, I couldn't care less, so I returned the painting."

I said excitedly, "You're okay to go back, you didn't burn." ”

Wang Hongrui's voice sounded tired, and it felt like he hadn't slept all night.

Also, with a few such paintings and a series of nightmares, it's no wonder that he can sleep!

His voice sounded tired and soft, and I told him the news I had just gotten: "I just communicated with Grandpa An, there are no evil ghosts on the paintings, you just need to return the paintings and ask your friends to return them to their places, and send them back wherever they came from, and you won't have nightmares after a while." ”

There was a heavy breathing sound on the other end of the phone, Wang Hongrui took several breaths, and his breath was short: "Really, really? Can I really get rid of nightmares? ”

After Grandpa An heard his voice, his face also showed unbearable, I heard the girl say before that this teenager is similar in age to her and Hua Yatou, he can paint that kind of portrait, and he can hold a personal exhibition, he is a rare talent.

Perhaps, God couldn't bear to let such a genius fall, so he hit it crookedly and asked him to send the painting back.

"Young man, just return the painting, those strange dreams will disappear after a while, believe the old man."

"Thank you, thank you."

Wang Hongrui cried excitedly, screaming on the other end of the phone, and kept repeating: "Fortunately, my choice is not wrong, there is no mistake." ”

As long as this step is wrong, he can't imagine what he will encounter in the future.

I am also relieved, Wang Hongrui is obviously crazy by the six paintings, look at his current emotional state, almost facing collapse.

He didn't seem to ask us for much explanation, and I told him that the next time I had time, I would meet with him, and I would tell him the information I had received today, so that he could completely settle his mind.

As long as it's not an evil ghost, it's okay, the spiritual power that I guessed, if it's really like what Grandpa An said, after a while, Wang Hongrui will naturally be able to sleep well, and he won't have to have that kind of dream again.

The matter of the six paintings seems to have come to an end, and the pervert left directly, and before leaving, he pulled me to a small corner, hugged me for a long time, and finally seemed to be urged by his subordinates, so he reluctantly left.

An Ning had a nightmare because she was also affected by those paintings last night, and she didn't sleep all night, so in the small room behind the shroud shop, she turned on a creaky electric fan and fell asleep.

I sat in the antechamber with Grandpa Ann.

I looked at him curiously: "Grandpa An, tell me about how you helped Yang Yi's family solve the matter of the old site of Lejia, I don't know the process yet, the pervert didn't go, so who did he send to help you?" ”

Grandpa An looked at me kindly, his expression a little misty, as if he was reminiscing about something.

"Black and white are impermanent, he sent them over to help me, and things are going well."

His tone was quite proud and proud: "I don't know how many ghosts we have in Anjia, there are thousands if not tens of thousands, that ghost is indeed very tricky, originally I was worried that a few of our young people who went to exorcise ghosts would not be able to resist, who knew that Lord Hades would send black and white impermanence over, which made us a lot easier." ”

I thought of the scene of An Ning running to my house when Grandpa An was not at home, and her expression was also very lonely, especially in those days.

I glanced towards the small room, hesitating to ask, but I was afraid that I would touch on the private affairs of the An family.

But I'm still worried about Anning, this little girl and I have always talked about everything, but she just rarely talks to me about her family.

"Grandpa An, is she ...... I don't have a good relationship with my family. I've never heard her mention her family, except for you, grandpa. ”

Grandpa An's eyes dimmed suddenly, and the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes seemed to be deeper, and he sighed and didn't hide it.

"The girl's father lost his life in a ghost hunting mission, and my mother died of depression because of the death of her husband, and she was almost brought up by me."

"It stands to reason that no matter who the An family is, as long as it is a descendant, they must learn and inherit the family's career, but An Ning is the only exception in our family."

I can understand why An Ning would not want to inherit.

Her parents died due to exorcism, which left a deep shadow on her when she was young. How could she be like a person with nothing to do and follow the same path as her father.

"I don't force her, it's okay not to inherit, but learning still has to be learned, no matter what, she is still a member of her own family, she is a direct bloodline, and she must be reasonable."

I thought about it for a while, and then asked, "Is she not on good terms with her relatives and children?" ”

Grandpa An nodded and sighed: "You have also seen that she has the best relationship with you, and her relationship with her family is not very good, and she doesn't like to communicate with them." ”

"Several elders on the side also don't show up much all year round in order to study the formation rituals, and several children of the younger generation are scattered all over the place to perform ghost exorcism tasks."

He smiled at me, a sad smile with distress: "Even her biological brother is not with her. ”

Brother? An Ning has a biological brother?

She'd never said it to herself.

Grandpa An shook his head helplessly: "The girl has never recognized this brother, since she was very young, the two have separated, after her parents died, her brother left the family, went out to wander, and has not come back until now." ”

"Occasionally, she would send us a letter, but every time An Ning saw the sender's name, she threw the letter in the trash."

"In her opinion, she doesn't recognize this brother, and she once said in front of me that he is a hypocrite, who will not go home for ten thousand years, and wants to win the recognition and forgiveness of himself and his family by sending a few letters, which is really beautiful."

Grandpa An got up from the recliner and walked to the door of the small room, and saw that An Ning was still asleep, so he lightly covered the door.

He quietly walked up to me, pulled a small stool and sat down, and said to me: "Actually, her brother left home to study, and at that time I revealed that all over the world, in different countries, there are excellent exorcists and exorcists in their own countries, and he is dedicated to studying, hoping to inherit the last wishes of his deceased parents. ”

"Moreover, he also hopes to be able to become strong and not let history repeat the mistakes of the past, Hua girl, he loves An Ning, he does this, he just doesn't want his sister to be hurt, he knows that An Ning will not inherit the family business, and he has regarded exorcism as a taboo all his life, so he wants to bear all the burdens, you know?"

I nodded, and Grandpa An took my hand and patted it lightly: "But the girl didn't understand, he also said, let's not reveal it, so I went to the phone and said that once I finish my studies, I will definitely return." ”

I didn't expect that I usually have such a family background, I always thought that I would be happy and free with my peace and tranquility...... Her family is a family of exorcists, and everything else is no different from our ordinary family.

But she never thought that her parents were no longer alive, and she didn't know that she had a brother who loved her and was willing to go out for her to experience far away from home and country since she was a child.

I sat in Grandpa Ann's shop all day, and when it was time to eat, my parents called me and I went home.

As I walked along the road, I couldn't help but think back to the ghosts I had encountered.

Xiao Huang who was killed by evil ghosts, poor grandmother who felt guilty about her granddaughter, a girl in a white dress who was quite a preschool education, Mao Mao who longed to see her mother, and Lin Miaomiao, who died of exhaustion for the family......

If I hadn't been there at that time, or if my marriage hadn't worked out, I wouldn't have been in that place.

If no one rescues them, will they be malicious and trapped in the sun for the rest of their lives, unable to be freed?

When I think about this, for the first time, I feel that I can see ghosts, to be able to reach them, to help them, is a pride, a way to be affirmed.

I was filled with emotion as I thought that their obsessions had been fulfilled, their sins had been redeemed, and they had disappeared before my eyes with satisfaction and gratitude.

It's not that bad to be able to see ghosts.

For the first time, I didn't resent myself for having this ability, and I stroked my lower abdomen and looked at the red bracelet on my wrist.

It was flickering and flickering, as if in response to my thoughts.

"Little one, you must be the same as I thought."

With a smile on my lips, I walked towards the bus stop.

I stood on the platform, waiting for the bus to arrive, holding my phone and flipping through Weibo.

Wang Hongrui posted a Weibo, a long text, which was very vague, but I still understood what he meant.

To put it succinctly, he appreciated our help and would have bred himself up to get through this nightmarish time, and he took a leave of absence from his fans, and several scheduled meetups and exhibitions were postponed.

I saw that he had such a mentality, so I didn't worry about him.

It didn't take long for the bus to arrive, so I walked up, swiped my card, and walked to the back of the bus, intending to find a place to sit down.

The moment I looked up, I saw a boy in a school uniform sitting in the back seat, which I was familiar with, the uniform of my high school alma mater.

The boy was wearing glasses, a little chubby, and his face was a little abnormal, and these were not the point.

The point is, I can tell the difference between him and ordinary living people.

He's a ghost.
