Volume 1 Village Strange News Chapter 34 Exploring the Ghost Tower
My proposal to search the building spread throughout the school, and the rumors once again spread to the ground. Because after two years, most people have forgotten, so the rumors have become even more outrageous and miraculous.
After class, I went to the old school building to take a look, and saw that there were people coming and going, and every classroom was opened to search.
If you can't find anyone, maybe it's good news, but if you do, I'm afraid ......
A sense of foreboding began to rise in my heart, and I always felt that there was a pair of fierce eyes in this building watching everything outside.
The story of dying in red comes from folklore. Wearing red clothes and dying, especially suicide, often has a strong resentment, and red impetuousness is the key factor to strengthen this resentment, so it is very easy to turn into evil ghosts or even ghosts after death.
Because it is a folklore, those who know also choose to believe it or not, and I know this saying, but I know this saying from Hu Jinlai's mouth, and he has personally experienced it. For a police officer, I would never think that nonsense, they have experienced too many strange things, even if it is only 50% credible, once it is corroborated with folklore, the credibility of this matter will instantly rise.
It wasn't until the end of school that the people in the old school building withdrew one after another, but looking at the anxious expressions of Zhang Da's parents, it seemed that there was no result.
A stone in my heart has finally fallen, which is good news......
Since the search was fruitless, the school leaders turned their attention to the gangsters outside the school.
The ruffian was wronged again today, and he was indignant in his heart, and he spat vigorously beside me, so that I wanted to plug my ears when I heard it.
When I came to the school gate, I saw from a distance that the janitor on duty was driving away an old woman in tattered clothes, she was begging with a bowl, the coins in the bowl were jingling, her gray hair covered her face, and her head was covered with dirt and dust.
The janitor drove her away angrily, while still scolding: "Get out!" Damn, it's a beggar again, bad luck, two years ago a beggar died the next day, today a child just went missing, and another beggar came! What a dead star! ”
The old woman was pushed by the janitor, staggered and fell to the ground, I wanted to step forward to help her, only to see the old woman stand up tremblingly, angrily pointed at the janitor with the cane in her hand and said: "You have no conscience, what's wrong with the old woman asking you to give you a few dollars, people like you will be punished sooner or later!" ”
Her voice was a little hoarse, but I always had a familiar feeling when I heard it, but I couldn't remember where I heard it.
After saying these words, the old woman left in a huff with a cane.
Leaving the janitor stunned in place, after reacting, he spat indignantly.
Seeing such a scene, I was a little helpless and didn't know what to say.
That's how people are, when they're depressed, they're a misfired gun that shoots bullets at any innocent person.
The next day at school, I happened to hear someone in the class organizing a haunted house adventure, and when I pricked up my ears, I actually planned to go to the old school building for a few people in the evening, both men and women, and I could see that they were all in high spirits.
A girl named Cheng Xuan came over and asked me if I wanted to go with me, it should be fun.
I looked at her with a frown, stood up, and said to everyone: "I think it's better for you not to go, there are many abandoned houses in the suburbs of the haunted house, you can go there if you want to go, but the old building of the school can't enter." ”
A boy began to sneer and said, "Lin Yunyi, are you afraid, just say it if you are timid, we won't force you." ”
As soon as the words fell, the others also laughed, and some ridiculed me, saying that I was a man, but I was as bold as a chicken.
I didn't refute this, but was unusually calm, but Cheng Xuan felt that it was too much, and excused me, saying: "Lin Yunyi said that there must be a reason for not going, the missing person has not been found until now, and I also think it is inappropriate, in case something happens......"
I silently glanced at her and thanked her, but her face turned red all at once, all the way to the root of her ears.
However, her words are nothing more than cowardice in the ears of others. Cheng Xuan is also a girl at the level of a class flower in the class, this is an age when love is beginning to bloom, and I am still ignorant, how can I understand the feelings implied in those delicate expressions and eyes.
For her behavior of excusing me, someone immediately soured us: "Alas, you see that two people are more matched, and the husband sings and the wife follows, since they are all cowards, just make a pair!" ”
This coaxing, Cheng Xuan became even more shy, and her face was as red as an autumn harvested tomato.
I had a cold face the whole time, cold as an ice cave, and it was impossible not to be angry in the face of such ridicule, they may be ignorant, but they are not at fault.
Finally, I sighed and said, "If you insist on going, I'll go with you and set a time." ”
Cheng Xuan looked up at me, because my expression was too calm, which made her face change.
In the face of my compromise, some people continued to taunt me: "Then don't be scared to pee your pants!" It's not good to lose face in front of girls! ”
I remained silent. Even if I said that there might be a ghost in that building, they wouldn't believe it, and even more and more thought that I was cowardly and fearful, which made people helpless.
And the organizer said: "Then gather at the school gate at 8 o'clock the night after tomorrow, what do you think?" ”
Everyone else said yes, and said they would call a few more people together.
Cheng Xuan cautiously pulled my sleeve and asked me in a low voice, "Lin Yunyi, aren't you afraid?" ”
I shrugged my shoulders and said, "You look at me, do you look like you're afraid?" ”
Cheng Xuan stared at Shui Lingling's eyes, did not speak, and there seemed to be ripples in his eyes. I can't help but feel my heart skip a beat, I've never seen such beautiful and pure eyes.
When I went back that day, I brought a stack of rune paper and started to draw a rune array, I wasn't sure what was wrong with that building, but I intuitively felt that there was some danger inside, so I needed to be well prepared, I now have a lot of improvement in the level of drawing runes, basically I can guarantee that within ten sheets, one or two can be used, and sixteen techniques, I can successfully perform.
In order to ensure that nothing goes wrong, I also tried my best, two nights, two talismans for each of the sixteen spells, almost exhausted me.
That night, I slept very deeply.
At eight o'clock in the evening of March 5, 1992, it was shocking, fierce, and inappropriate. If I look at the yellow calendar when I go out...... I'm still going to go out.
At eight o'clock, there were seven people gathered at the school gate, four of whom were from our class, and the other three, two boys and one girl, were from other schools. There were fewer people than I imagined, and the reason why those people didn't come, I don't know.
I was carrying a small cloth bag, which contained my Nian Jing and the drawn rune paper, as well as garlic, fragrant ash and glutinous rice, so the cloth bag was bulging, and several people saw it and said with a smile that I was old-fashioned. Only a boy from a foreign school raised his eyebrows when he saw this, and he didn't know why.
I didn't tell the riffraff about this, and with his guts, I didn't want him to follow me on this troubled water.
We were going to climb over the wall and go in, but when we saw that the master in the communication room was not there, we were probably sleeping or going out on patrol, so we swaggered into the school through the small door in front of the communication room.
As I entered, out of the corner of my eye, I saw a vague figure lying on the side of the street not far away, like a homeless beggar, and I didn't pay much attention to it.
The night was dark, there was no starlight in the sky, as if the sky and the earth were engulfed in darkness, and the school was deserted and silent, except for the lonely lamp in the farthest teacher's dormitory.
Each of us brought a flashlight, and eight beams of light lit up in the darkness, illuminating layers of fly ash in the air.
Cheng Xuan was actually not very bold, she shrank at the beginning, very nervous, and I don't know why she was willing to come to this ghost place.
Because she helped me speak, I had a good impression of her, so I asked her to follow me, and by my side, I could at least make sure that she was safe for the first time.
Such an action naturally caused a burst of ridicule from the others.
Among the four people in the same class as me, in addition to Cheng Xuan, there are two men and one woman, the organizer is called Zhao Kunan, and the other two, one is called Yuan Mingsen and the other is called Xia Xiaozhong, both of whom have a good relationship with Zhao Kunan. The three people from other schools are all friends of Zhao Kunan.
Originally, Xia Xiaozhong and Cheng Xuan were good friends, but because Cheng Xuan and I were a little close, she didn't seem to be willing to talk to Cheng Xuan, so Cheng Xuan and I seemed to be isolated.
Cheng Xuan seemed to be a little interested in my cloth bag, and asked me in a low voice what was inside, and she seemed to hear the sound of Sasha.
I ignored her, I couldn't tell her it was glutinous rice......
At the end, she suddenly asked, "Lin Yunyi, do you know something about those things?" I don't think you're afraid at all, but why don't you agree with us coming here? ”
My heart shook slightly, a girl's sixth sense is too strong. But I remained calm and silent, my eyes constantly watching the whole building.
"You say, will something terrible happen in a while?" When Cheng Xuan said this, her throat trembled.
Only then did I turn around and whisper with a resolute look in my eyes: "Don't worry, nothing will happen with me." ”
However, these words fell on my heart, but there was no bottom, because I didn't know what was going to happen, I just prepared myself for everything.
It's hard to put into words whether this is self-confidence or conceit, but I'm at least able to do my best to keep those of them unarmed safe and sound.
Perhaps this is also a heavy burden that should be placed on the shoulders of us practitioners.
The old school building is fifty or sixty meters away from other teaching buildings, and it is an independent building, plus the surrounding greenery and overgrown weeds, almost all of the lower third floor are shaded, and rows of black windows loom in the dark leaves, like a pair of black eyes, quietly watching the outside world through the gaps in the branches.
