Chapter 39: The Master
At this time, Lin Miaoyin shouted in my bedroom: "Knife, pour me a glass of water!" β
Guo Tingting's face changed, and she rushed to the door of the bedroom from me, looking at Lin Miaoyin on the bed blankly.
When I came to Guo Tingting's side, I saw her biting her lower lip, and the tears that had just dried up in her eyes seemed to start pouring out again.
"She's ...... That ...... "I think Guo Tingting seems to have a misunderstanding, and I want to explain, but I am worried that the more I describe, the darker it will be, and I don't know how to say it for a while."
Lin Miaoyin heard the voice, turned around and said, "Tingting, are you here too?" It's quite interesting when you look at this site, hehe. β
"Why are you here?" Guo Tingting said.
"How did I end up here? That's a long story. Do you want me to start when I'm one year old, or when I'm eight years old? β
"I ask why you're here?" Guo Tingting asked again.
Lin Miaoyin jumped off the bed barefoot, grabbed Guo Tingting's shoulder, and laughed: "Stinky girl, you look like this, you don't think I have something with him, right?" Hahaha, you treat him as a treasure, others will only treat him as grass, hahaha. β
Guo Tingting smiled reluctantly and said, "Of course I won't think like that." β
I pulled Guo Tingting to my side and said, "We're going to eat and watch a movie, do you want to be a light bulb together?" β
"Go, go, go, go, they're all guys who are heavy on color and light on friends, and Lao Tzu will go home by himself." Lin Miaoyin waved her hand, walked over and changed her sneakers, snorted at me and Guo Tingting in disgust, and opened the door.
She didn't even have a bag, and she had her phone in her hand.
Guo Tingting and I looked at each other and smiled.
"I'm wondering," I said with a smile, "how did you become best friends with such a different personality?" β
Guo Tingting said: "We used to be neighbors, Miaoyin's parents and my parents both worked in the same factory, and we grew up together. Later, her parents were laid off and started a business and made a fortune, so they moved away, but we have always been fine. We were about the same age, but she always thought she was an older sister and took good care of me all the time. β
I hugged Guo Tingting in my arms and said with a smile: "You are a beautiful woman I feel sorry for, everyone will want to protect you when they see it, but they don't see the other side of you." That day in the company, you stood in front of me and said to the boss: You fired the employee without reason, you are wrong! Wow, that's really handsome! β
I learned Guo Tingting's voice and tone at that time, and Guo Tingting smiled a little embarrassed.
But her face sank suddenly, she pointed to my nose, and said quickly: "From now on, you must turn on the phone twenty-four hours a day, and I must be able to find you at any time; Send me a good morning in the morning and a good night in the evening, and I have to reply within a minute when I send a message; You are not allowed to meet Lin Miaoyin alone, I must be present to meet; If something goes missing like the previous two days, you have to report it to me in advance, what is the reason for the retreat, and how long will it be for you......"
At that moment, I seemed to see the Liu Yue'e in the roar of the lion in Hedong......
**********
But that night, I disobeyed Guo Tingting's instructions.
Guo Tingting and I went to the movies, walked with her for a long time, had dinner together, and after sending her home, I called Lin Miaoyin, which of course violated Guo Tingting's instructions that she was not allowed to meet Lin Miaoyin alone.
But I also have a clear conscience, after all, I don't have anything unpleasant to do with Lin Miaoyin, right? A white lie at best, right?
Lin Miaoyin once said that it was "over there at her house", but in fact, there is still a considerable distance from Lin Miaoyin's house.
Lin Miaoyin's house is in a villa next to Lingshan Park, and we came here on a hill in the city, called "Yingpanpo", it is said that during the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang's army was stationed here, hence the name. Now it is crowded with all kinds of people, most of them the people at the bottom of society who are struggling.
There is a mobile apartment on the top of the slope, and the woman Lin Miaoyin said lives in a private house next to the gate of the mobile apartment, on the second floor.
When we arrived at the gate of the mobile apartment, it was about half-past eleven in the evening.
Even though it's the middle of the night, it's still lively.
There were several barbecue shops on both sides of the road at the entrance, and they all set their tables on the side of the road, and almost every table was full.
I guess they must have drunk five or six before, and it was very noisy.
But now they are all quiet, talking quietly in their ears, and they are still very nervous.
Many elderly people listened intently, smiling and admiring.
What they were listening to was the classic Huangmei opera "The Female Concubine", although I knew this repertoire, but I didn't appreciate it very much.
The sound came from a three-story building next to the gate of the mobile apartment, and there was an iron gate downstairs through which you had to pass to enter.
I know that this kind of building is similar to the dormitory in the school, that is, the house is built into one room and rented to others. A room is about ten or twenty square meters, and the rent is five or six hundred yuan, which is very cheap in this city.
Lin Miaoyin had the landlord's phone number and immediately called him.
The landlord, a skinny old man in his sixties, lived on the third floor, and soon came down and opened the door.
At this time, there were already a lot of people around us, and there was a lot of discussion.
"Ouch, why is this person so young this time? Can he? β
"Yes, last time, that blind man Liu heard that he was the most powerful, and he was thrown from the upstairs."
"You say, will they annoy that ghost by looking for people over and over again? What if that ghost really hurts people? β
"Anyway, let him try, listening to a ghost singing every day, I'm almost crazy!"
"Isn't it? During this time, I had nightmares every day, and I didn't sleep well a day! β
ββ¦β¦β
The landlord led us into the building, and the dim light was not much better than candles.
The landlord didn't say much, and from the look in his eyes, I knew that he didn't believe me at all, just had the mentality of a dead horse being a live horse doctor. Now everyone knows that his tenants have been ghosted, the original tenants have all moved out, and no new tenants dare to move in, so he is anxious.
I had in my hand half a bottle of mineral water, and the wooden sword, wrapped in strips of black cloth; He also carried some old grave dirt, a flashlight, an electronic scale, and a large handful of five-cent coins.
You may ask, don't I be able to knock demons out of human bodies with a single palm? Why do you still have these useless things?
Hehe, let me tell you, something like this requires a sense of ritual.
You say that you jumped out and solved the problem with a slap, and others will not believe you and will not respect you.
So you have to be grand, formal, and deliberate, and sometimes the process is more important than the result. If it weren't for the lack of time, I would have wanted to get a set of clothes like Lin Zhengying to wear. There was no time to find the coin, otherwise it would have been more convincing to use the kind of copper coin with a round outer circle and a square inner circle.
A few bold young people also followed to watch the excitement, and some people were tracking and filming with their mobile phones, whispering explanations in their mouths.
On the second floor, the street lights were broken and it was pitch black, but fortunately there were several mobile phones to illuminate it.
The landlord took us to the first room on the second floor: "Now, this is in it. β
The sound of singing came from the door, lingering in grief, low and tactful, like weeping. If it weren't for the ghost singing, it would have been pretty good. But nowβI'm a person who has seen big scenes, and now I feel a little creepy, and I can't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva. Those who watched the excitement even cowered and hid aside, and even a few couldn't stand it anymore and retreated.
I poured a little dirt into the palm of the old landlord's hand, poured some more water, and motioned for him to apply it to his eyelids.
- I deliberately wanted him to see the ghost, after all, I did something to be witnessed by people, didn't I?
"What's that? Give me some too. Several good people also stretched out their palms to me curiously and excitedly.
There was a small hole in the door, and light came out of it, forming a pillar of light.
"I did it on purpose." The old landlord explained in a whisper.
The singers inside seemed to hear the voice, and the singing stopped abruptly.
I leaned closer to the hole to see inside.
And thenβ
Then I saw a blood-red patch.
It's a blood-red eye!
A blood-red eye is also approaching the hole inside, wanting to see the situation outside!
One mile and one outside, the two eyes were together.
A scream came out at the same time!
I was really scared, and my heart was beating wildly.
The voice inside was even more poignant and tragic, and the woman's screams almost pierced people's eardrums!
