Chapter 2: Midnight Summoning

I hurriedly asked the old man if he could be mistaken, although I also knew that this was a stupid thing, how could this kind of thing be wrong, but at this time my whole person was already in chaos.

Sure enough, the old man looked at me with some displeasure, and although he did not speak, he had already made his intentions clear.

I felt a little frustrated, and then I listened to the old man babble a lot, and after listening to it, I couldn't even walk steadily.

I came home after a while, and smoked several cigarettes in a row to ease my mind a little, just now I heard the old man say that Wang Po died on the 29th of last month, and before that, she had been staying in her hometown for more than two weeks.

In other words, she never came back in between.

But who did I see the next day?

I gradually began to believe what the takeaway boy said, and the Wang Po he saw that night may have been......

I shuddered, didn't dare to continue thinking, and hurriedly called the takeaway guy, but it was said that I couldn't get through.

I just sat on the sofa in a daze, my mind was full of all kinds of messy things, and I didn't know when, so I fell asleep in a daze.

In my sleep, I kept hearing my name called, and then I followed the voice and kept walking, it was pitch black in front of me, and I couldn't see where it was.

Squeak –

Just then, I heard a screeching sound of brakes, and I opened my eyes suddenly, only to see a truck with flashing headlights crashing head-on into me!

When the front of the car was less than two meters away from me, I suddenly felt a force pull me aside, and the big truck almost wiped my clothes and sped by.

"You don't want to die!"

A voice sounded in my ears, and when I turned my head, it was the old man, who was glaring at me with two round eyes.

My mind went blank, and it took me a long time to come to my senses, and I suddenly sweated, this is not a dream!

But I clearly remember, I was still at home just now, why did I suddenly appear on the street?

The old man also looked frightened, and dragged me towards the house, and on the way I came back to my senses and asked him what was the matter.

The old man did not speak, and looked very flustered, until he returned to the house, he filled a large glass of water, sat down in a chair, and gasped for breath.

"Didn't you hear me call you just now?" After a while, the old man asked me.

I shook my head blankly, until now my mind is still in a trance, I don't know what happened, I clearly remember, I was obviously at home just now, why did I suddenly ......

Then I listened to the old man tell him what had happened, and he was just about to go to bed, when he suddenly heard a knock at the door outside, but when he opened the door, he saw no one at the door, and just as he was about to close the door, he suddenly saw me coming out of the next door.

He wondered where I would go in the middle of the night, and when he saw that there was something wrong with my face, his whole face was confused, and his eyes were not bright, so he called me, but I didn't answer him, but walked slowly downstairs.

He felt that something was wrong, so he hurriedly followed, and saw me walking alone towards the entrance of the community, and he kept calling me from behind, but I didn't hear it.

When he felt that there was something wrong with this, I suddenly quickened my pace and rushed straight onto the road, just as a big truck drove by, and if he hadn't moved quickly, I would have become a puddle of meat by now.

Sleepwalking?

Suddenly, these two words popped into my head.

If that's the case, then what the takeaway brother said can be explained, eighty percent of me was sleepwalking at the time......

As soon as I thought of this, I suddenly stopped again, but this is not right, if it is sleepwalking, then how can Wang Po explain?

"Do you have something to do with my old woman?"

At this time, the old man suddenly looked at me and said a word, and seeing that I didn't say anything, he continued: "I just felt that something was wrong with you when I was in the house, and when I talked about my wife, you seemed to have a big reaction." ”

Seeing that I still didn't react, the old man added, "When you were about to be hit by a car just now, guess what I saw?" ”

"What do you see?" I had a vague feeling that the old man might know something.

The old man looked at me and pursed his lips, lowered his voice and said, "When you got into the middle of the road, I saw my wife." ”

"What's that?" I almost popped out of my eyes when I listened.

The old man also looked a little flustered, rubbed his chin and said, "I don't know if I'm dazzled, when the car was about to crash into it, I suddenly saw my old woman appear next to you, and she was still touching your head on tiptoe......"

I was so frightened that I almost didn't fall off the chair, my heart was beating suddenly, and when the old man saw me like this, he poured a glass of water and handed it over, "Don't worry, speak slowly." ”

I poured the glass of water into my stomach in one go, which eased up a little, and then I told the takeaway brother what he saw that night, and the fact that I had a few words with Wang Po at the door that morning.

The old man frowned when he heard this, neither of us spoke, and the whole room was surprisingly quiet.

"It should be my old woman's ghost, but there's no reason, she's always had a good heart......"

After muttering to himself for a while, he suddenly looked up at me and asked, "How did you quarrel with her that morning?" ”

I licked my dry lips and tried to remember what had happened that morning.

I remember when I was about to go out and suddenly I saw a bowl of swishing white rice in the doorway, and I kicked it aside.

But at this time, Wang Po suddenly came out of the next door, pointed at my nose and started scolding, saying why I kicked her food.

Wang Po is usually very mean, and what she says is very ugly, so I couldn't help arguing with her for a few words, and finally scolded: "Isn't it just white rice for one night, I'll pay you ten bowls, you can take it and eat enough!" ”

After listening to this, the old man looked at me and asked, "Then did you pay her later?" ”

I said that what I said at the time was all angry words, and I forgot about it later.

"That's bad!"

The old man rubbed his hands, "It must be my old woman who remembered what you said at the time, and I didn't see you cash it out later, so she was not happy, so she did all this!" ”

I was stunned, went through the matter from beginning to end, and suddenly realized that things were really like that.

That is, after the quarrel with Wang Po that morning, the strange scene happened when I ordered dinner in the evening, and then I began to be unlucky the next day......

In this way, this is reasonable, everything is the ghost of the princess behind her!

"That'...... So what do I do now? ”

Although the matter is clear, but I am still nervous to no, the unfortunate things are more serious than one another, if it wasn't for the old man to come to the rescue, it is estimated that I am now chatting with Wang Po below.

The old man did not speak, but frowned and thought for a while, and then asked me to wait for him in the house for a while, and he went to get something, and as he said that, he got up and walked out.

I stayed at home alone, feeling cold in my back, and turned all the lights to the brightest, so I felt a little more at ease.

My mind is so messy, I used to think that the things that Xiao Liu said were all unreliable things, but now that the facts are in front of me, I can't believe it or not.

Knock Knock Knock –

At this time, I suddenly heard a knock on the door, thinking it was an old man, so I quickly got up and opened the door.

But when I opened the door, it was empty, there was not even a ghost, and the door of the old man's house was hidden, and I could vaguely hear some movement inside, like the sound of dishes and chopsticks colliding.

I was about to go over to see what was going on, when I suddenly saw a blank piece of paper pasted on my door, and when I looked closely, there was a very strange pattern drawn on it.

It looked like a shriveled lip, with a big cross on the top of the lip with a red pen.

Who posted this?

I glanced down the hallway, but I didn't see anyone, but I remembered clearly that there wasn't anyone when I came in.

"What are you doing!"

At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded behind me, which startled me, and when I turned my head, it was the old man, carrying a bag of things in his hand, and I didn't know what it was.

I told him about the blank paper, and he looked up and tore it off and threw it aside, saying that now was not the time to care about it.

Once inside, he pulled out some incense, candles, paper money, and other things from his bag, as well as a bowl full of white rice and an empty bowl, with a pair of chopsticks next to him.

He poured half a bowl of water into the empty bowl, and then told me to turn off all the lights in the house, close the curtains and everything, and tell me to find something thick to block a mirror hanging on the wall.

I was a little confused, I didn't know what he wanted to do, but I did it anyway.

When it was ready, he lit two candles and put them on the table, and put three sticks of incense next to them, and then asked me to burn the pile of paper money on the ground.

The light in the room was particularly dim, and the two candles emitted a dim and dim shimmer, swaying gently in the room, and the surroundings were surprisingly quiet, except for the popping sound of paper money being lit.

The old man began to chant words beside him, although his speech was not very clear, but I could still hear the general meaning, which was nothing more than to make her wife magnanimous, don't care, and go to reincarnation as soon as she is full.

After a while, I suddenly felt a gust of wind blowing in the room, which was cold, and the temperature dropped several degrees in an instant, and the candle flame and the lit paper money shook violently for a moment.

The old man's expression became excited, and he choked up with red eyes: "Old woman, you can leave with peace of mind after eating, don't stay here and harm people, every Qingming in the future, I will burn more paper money for you......"

Speaking of emotion, a tear flashed from the corner of the old man's eyes, which made me feel very uncomfortable.

After finishing the chatter, he sighed softly, pointed to the chopsticks on the table and said to me, "You pick up this chopstick and insert it in that rice bowl." ”

I wondered what I was doing, but I did it, picked up the chopsticks, and stuck them in the bowl of white rice.

But then, the unthinkable happened!
