Chapter 57: I have to protect her for the rest of my life in the wind and rain
I just came over with him to see the situation, and I didn't expect Geng Huainan to want me to live here, even if I wanted to refuse, after all, I also needed my own private space, and he didn't have any eyebrows on his side, so he couldn't just tie me here, and don't care about anything else, right?
"It's not convenient for me to live here, it's not too far away, I'll come over immediately if I need to." I'll be honest.
Geng Huainan was worried: "Master, I know that this is difficult for a strong man, but first, the matter of Building 14 must be seen at night, and second, my wife's due date - around the fifteenth day of the tenth month of the lunar calendar, which is what I am most worried about." ”
The fifteenth day of the tenth month of the lunar calendar is the annual Xia Yuan Festival.
I groaned and frowned: "Didn't you and your wife just get married for half a year?" ”
"Accident, accident." Geng Huainan scratched his head and said embarrassedly.
There are several solar terms in a year that are very special, such as the Shangsi Festival, the Zhongyuan Festival and the Xiayuan Festival, all of which are days when the ghost door is wide open and the ghosts are raging.
Around that day, not only the ghosts of the Netherworld were reveling, wandering in the human world, but those who were once not accepted by the underworld were also restless, because this day was a great opportunity for them.
There are many unwritten rules among the people, one of which is that when these three solar terms come, don't walk at night, and don't wander outside if you have nothing to do, because from the second half of the fourteenth to the first half of the fifteenth, some wandering spirits need to find someone to cushion their backs, and some wandering spirits want to take the opportunity to be reincarnated.
This kind of reincarnation is certainly not a normal reincarnation.
The significance of the wide opening of the ghost door is to let the ghosts who have stayed in the underworld and have not yet reached the time of reincarnation return to the human world to fulfill some of their unfulfilled wishes, and the reincarnation furnace is closed during that time, so logically speaking, there will be no pregnant women who happen to have children during that time.
But every year there are some children who happen to be born at that time, how did these children come about?
It's all about these geistes.
Early in the morning, they set their sights on some pregnant women whose due dates were approaching, waiting for the time when the door of hell was wide open and the reincarnation furnace was closed, and then they went straight to the pregnant woman and forcibly reincarnated.
There are too many wandering spirits in this world, and there are too few pregnant women at the right time, so there is the legend of 'Hundred Ghosts Surrounding the Gate'.
In fact, some legends are often not as simple as chasing after the wind and shadows.
In order to snatch this rare opportunity, they will fight to the death, sometimes they can't tell the winner in the end, time is wasted, as soon as the ghost door is closed, the reincarnation furnace is opened again, and they lose this opportunity; If there is one particularly powerful member of this group, who dominates and deters the other ghosts, it will get this opportunity, and it will forcibly reincarnate before the ghost gate closes, causing the fetus to be born early.
These ghosts have not drunk Meng Po soup, have been judged by the underworld, baptized by the reincarnation furnace, and reincarnated with their own yin and evil spirits, so the children born at these points in time are born with a special physique, and some places directly call them little ghosts.
Some of these children are too heavy in their own evil spirits, and they are so powerful that they can even overcome themselves; Some Yin Qi invades the body, and they are born weak and sickly, and they have to go through many hurdles in life, each of which may die young, and they often see some things around them that others can't see, and the purpose of those things is to find opportunities to replace him.
Many of the souls that have been released from the underworld to visit home have never returned, and the ghost door is open and closed, which is an opportunity for some ghosts, but a nightmare for some ghosts.
This is equivalent to a reshuffle, and the underworld will sort out the substitutes again according to the soul after this shuffle, and rearrange the reincarnation quota.
Geng Huainan said that his mother had seen it, and the other party should have reminded him of these things, so he was so worried and begged me to stay.
I glanced at the date, it was already the thirteenth day of the tenth month of the lunar calendar, and I asked Geng Huainan what day his wife's due date was estimated, and he said it was October 16th.
"I want to meet your wife." I said.
"She went out with my mom and will be back in a while." When Geng Huainan said this, his eyes flickered a little, and I caught it all at once.
I guessed, "It's going to test men and women, right?" ”
Geng Huainan was slightly surprised, but then nodded honestly: "Our family does not have the idea of patriarchy, and everything we give birth to is our heart, but now that this happens, my mother will ......."
It's almost the next Yuan Festival, but Geng Huainan met Grandma Meng, Geng's mother was worried that if it was a boy, it would be more reassuring, but if it was a girl, she would have to guard against it.
Although it sounds absurd, there are some things that are not clear, and it is not wrong to plan early.
I suddenly remembered what Mo Xian had told me before, that they were going to leave the city, and the time was not right.
Could it be because it's almost the next Yuan Festival, and the yin and evil aura has become heavier, so if the proprietress of the photo studio has divine help, they need to avoid it?
It should be.
In this way, tomorrow will be fourteen, and he will have to come back in the middle of the night at the latest, and when he returns, I will be relieved.
"Master, please help us, you help us get through the difficulties, one merit, I will definitely help you promote it more in the future." Geng Huainan clasped his hands together and begged me vigorously.
I hesitated for a moment before I said, "Well, I'll stay tonight to observe the situation, but I'll have to go back during the day, and I'll come back tomorrow at nine o'clock in the evening." ”
At that time, I might persuade Mo Xianye to come with me, and I will get twice the result with half the effort.
Geng Huainan finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Okay, it's all up to you." ”
He showed me the room I was staying in, and all the toiletries were ready for me, and it was quite well prepared.
I took the time to go back and get a change of clothes, and Geng Huainan's mother and wife had already returned, sitting on the sofa waiting for me.
When they saw me, they both seemed to see a life-saving straw, beckoned me to sit down, and brought me tea and water.
Geng Huainan's wife's name is Yin Suyun, she is small and delicate, even if the due date is approaching, she can't see that she is bloated, and her short black hair just hangs down a little below the root of her ears, which makes people very protective.
She blinked her eyes and looked at me pitifully and said, "Master, Huainan and I have always followed your Weibo, we can trust your ability, this time it's really please." ”
I looked at her and her mother-in-law's faces, and I knew the results they had found out today, and if it was a boy, he wouldn't be so nervous.
I don't have any confidence in this matter, and it is related to two lives, one big and one small, so I didn't dare to pack the ticket, but said: "I have to observe this matter clearly before I speak, you don't have a psychological burden, maybe there is nothing, just worry about it." ”
"It's better to believe it than not to believe it, after all, when you encounter this incident, you can't take it lightly, right?" Yin Suyun's face was full of sadness.
I took her hand and did the thought work for her: "Actually, you don't have to be so nervous, no matter how she is born in the end, for you, she is a new life, and your blood is flowing in her blood, isn't it?" ”
"But...... But after all, she is not the same person she was, how should I face her after birth? Yin Suyun was very repulsive.
I continued: "So who do you think you are expecting from her?" ”
"She may be someone you once particularly hated, she may be your former relatives and friends, or she may have done something heinous in her previous life, if you know the specific situation, can you accept it?"
Yin Suyun's eyes widened, obviously there was something she couldn't accept.
"So, no matter who she used to be or what kind of person she was, it doesn't matter, the important thing is that she chose you and has a relationship with you, and she wants to live with you in this life, be your child, be loved by you, right?"
Yin Suyun listened to my words, originally sitting straight, and her tense body slowly softened, leaned on the back of the sofa, and unconsciously stroked her high bulging belly.
"Yes, she chose to accompany me through this life, I should protect her in the wind and rain, it doesn't matter who she used to be, the important thing is that she is my daughter."
Yin Suyun looked at me, and finally had a smile on his face: "Master, although you are not very old, a few years younger than me, you really see people and things more clearly than me." ”
I smiled and reminded: "If there is no problem all night tomorrow, if the child is really born tomorrow night or even the day after tomorrow, then you should not pay attention to who the child is reincarnated, but pay close attention to her birth date and physical condition, and then I will find someone to help her ask for an amulet according to her situation." ”
Yin Suyun nodded straightly: "Listen to you, everything is up to you." ”
Her mother-in-law stood aside, but kept her face strained, and it was obvious that her old man was still having a hard time accepting this, and muttered, "Try not to have an accident." ”
Geng Huainan persuaded on the side: "Mom, there are some things that are destined to be brought and cannot be forced, so let's just listen to the master and just let it be." ”
In the evening, after everyone finished eating and washing, they all gathered in the living room to watch TV, at about nine o'clock, Yin Suyun was sleepy, and Geng Huainan went back to the room with her to sleep.
Geng's mother quietly approached me and whispered, "The doctor who helped Su Yun check on her today is my friend, I told her that if Su Yun's stomach moves tomorrow night, she will help ......"
Geng's mother raised her hand and made a killing motion, I was suddenly shocked, and looked at her incredulously, did she mean that she would rather not have this child than let her be born tomorrow night?
She could have not told me about this, after all, it was disgraceful, and it was her family affair, but she still told me, which means that she didn't want to do it deep down, and she couldn't accept it.
I shook my head: "Auntie, since you believe that Grandma Meng wants to take the opportunity to reincarnate in your house, then why don't you believe in karma?" Once you do this, you will be uneasy in your heart for the rest of your life, and the couple will hate you, and more importantly, it will create a huge karma for yourself, which is not worth it. ”
Geng's mother sighed and kept whispering why it was their family's turn.
I accompanied her to comfort her, and when she was old, she was not as energetic as before, and she went to sleep at about ten o'clock.
I didn't go back to my room to sleep, I poured a glass of water, held it in my hand, and walked to the balcony.
The balcony is fully enclosed, and from this angle, looking towards Building 14, it is pitch black, and it looks like a dead building rather than an empty building, lifeless.
I went back to the couch, watched TV, managed to stay up until 12 a.m., and then went to the balcony to look at Building 14, which was still dark, and the other floors were still lit up occasionally.
I just waited, every hour to see it, until the end of the day, my eyes were full of tears, and I was so sleepy.
The time finally came to three o'clock in the morning, and when I went to the balcony again, I was surprised to find that there were several lights in Building 14, which was exactly the same as Geng Huainan's description, red and yin, very weird.
I brought a stool, sat on the balcony, stared at Building 14, counted the floors one by one, and recorded them on my phone.
From three o'clock to half past three, the red light kept increasing, and when I was counting, a voice suddenly sounded: "Master, haven't you slept yet?" ”
I was startled, and when I looked up, I saw Geng Huainan standing beside me, he looked towards Building 14 and said, "Yes, I'm right, right?" ”
"It's really weird." I said.
As we talked, over there, Geng's mother also got up, she walked over and glanced at Building 14, and said, "It's pitch black, it's weird and scary." ”
"Pitch black?" Geng Huainan was puzzled, "Mom, can't you see it?" ”
"See what?" Geng's mother was puzzled, "I haven't seen anything except the darkness." ”
Geng Huainan was obviously a little panicked, and asked me, "Master, what's going on?" ”
"Because Grandma Meng has been in contact with you, the yin qi you carry is heavy, so you can naturally see something that others can't see." That's the explanation I can think of.
Geng's mother became excited: "Ah, little girl, you can really see it, to be honest, I see that you are so young, and you are still doubting your ability, it seems that Huai Nan really did not find the wrong person." ”
"Mom, the master's voice on the Internet is very high, people can't look good, you can't fight, you should understand this truth." Geng Huainan said.
Geng's mother nodded vigorously: "It's me who thinks too much, you talk, I won't bother you." ”
She went back to her room.
Geng Huainan smiled at this time: "Actually, I didn't expect you to see it." ”
"It's a must-have feature for what we do." I laughed.
The two of us stayed on the balcony like that, chatting and recording as soon as four o'clock arrived, and the light in Building 14 was instantly extinguished, and it was completely black.
There is a total of an hour before and after, which is in line with the time pattern of ghost activity, from 12 o'clock in the night to 3 o'clock in the morning, this is the most active period, and as soon as three o'clock arrives, they have to hide themselves.
Geng Huainan also told me before that the first time he met Grandma Meng, that is, at about 3 o'clock in the morning, when Grandma Meng said that she came home from outside, and her family lived in Building 14.
So, it all coincides.
Building 14 is indeed not occupied, but it is not as the property said, it is not sold to the outside, they have sold, but to whom, I am afraid that there is something else inside.
At that time, I was already red-eyed and needed to rest, but I couldn't sleep.
I asked Geng Huainan to bring a pen and paper, he went numbly, I reached out and rubbed my temples, waited for him to bring a pen and paper, and then wrote a few strings of numbers on it, including room 1808 on the 18th floor, and then handed it to Geng Huainan and explained: "I'll go back later, this morning's task is to take this string of numbers to find the property, and ask them who lives in these households, if they grit their teeth and refuse to say, you will say that you are ready to call the police, there is no room for negotiation." ”
"Master, do you see what's coming?" Geng Huainan took the paper, folded it, held it tightly in his hand, and asked.
I shook my head: "I can't guess the specific situation, but Building 14 does have a problem, and the problem is very big, we don't easily go to Building 14 to investigate, it is likely to cause a fire." ”
Geng Huainan nodded again and again, I thought about it and said: "If you have the time and relationship, you can pay attention to whether there are pregnant women in your entire community whose due date is similar to your wife, if so, ask her family if there is a situation like yours recently, which is very important." ”
"I have to ask my wife about this, after all, there will be more communication between pregnant women." Geng Huainan said.
I stood up and prepared to go out, Geng Huainan asked me to rest here for a while, but I didn't want to.
Out of the community, after waiting for a while, a taxi came, I got on it, and asked him to take me to the ancient street, I was really sleepy and sleepy, but I always felt in my heart that Mo Xian could come back at night today, I had to go back, maybe when I woke up, he was by my side.
I'm afraid that he will come back to see me, and I will leave him without him, and it will be difficult to find him for help at that time.
After getting into the car, I leaned on the back of the car and stared at it, thinking that if the taxi drove fast, I would arrive at the ancient street in ten minutes, and I would not fall asleep, but I fell asleep after a while and began to dream non-stop.
There were many faces in the dream that I had never seen before, and they warned me not to meddle too much, or they would not spare me.
I was scared half to death, I woke up suddenly, gasping for air, and when I calmed down a little, I felt that something was wrong.
First of all, I was not in the taxi, and after a closer look, I found that I was sitting in a paper car, and the driver in front of me was a paper man, not the one I had seen with my previous wave.
At that time, I was shocked into a cold sweat, and quickly got off the paper car, but found myself standing in a bush, next to a mountain, and the hillside was densely packed with tombs.
The sky had already brightened, I glanced at the time, six o'clock, set a seat, but found myself in the southern suburbs of Jiangcheng Kyushu Mountain, and Kyushu Mountain is a famous cemetery in Jiangcheng, almost all the local town residents of Jiangcheng are buried here after death.
But because of the age, there is no gap in the mountain, since last year, Kyushu Mountain has not been open to the public new cemetery, but in the northern suburbs and re-planned a cemetery, but because many people are afraid that there is no place to bury after death, they rush to buy in advance, resulting in the price being raised all of a sudden, and ordinary people can't afford it at all.
The rural areas are now also planning, and it is even more difficult for urban people to move back.
I don't understand, who got this paper car and brought me here? And what is the purpose?
Thinking of the scene in the dream, I suddenly had a chill down my spine, I didn't have time to think about anything else, I raised my feet and walked towards the side of the road, this area is very desolate, it is not easy to take a taxi, I had to walk slowly forward, walked for about ten minutes before meeting a taxi, this time I kept an eye on it, and talked with the driver for a while before getting into the car.
After getting in the car, he didn't dare to sleep, and kept staring at him back to the ancient street.
I opened the store, made breakfast, and rested on the counter after eating, and at about half past eight, Geng Huainan's phone called, and I quickly picked it up.
Geng Huainan said excitedly: "Master, I can't help it, I was bombed out of the property, they flatly denied that there was a problem with Building 14, and threatened me that even if I called the police, it would be useless." ”
"Then it looks like they have nothing to fear." Sure enough, things are not as simple as I thought.
Geng Huainan couldn't wait to say: "I asked my wife in the morning, and it turned out that she really knew a pregnant woman in our community whose due date was two or three days later than ours, and the pregnant woman said that their family had not encountered anything strange, but the pregnant woman always dreamed, and there was a wrinkled old man in the dream who called her mother, and she had done it several times in a row, which was quite embarrassing." ”
Not only embarrassing, but also suspicious.
It seems that the developer of this splendid home community is not simple.
"You don't have to go to work today, do you?" I asked Geng Huainan.
He smiled bitterly and said, "What kind of work is this, I directly asked for three days off and stayed at home." ”
"Okay, then you can think of a way to investigate Grandma Meng's three sons and see if they have purchased real estate recently, especially the one from the Splendid Homes." I said.
Geng Huainan immediately agreed, after hanging up the phone, I was a little uneasy, it was daytime, if I found a way to go into Building 14 to have a look, wouldn't all the problems be solved?
But...... This seems too idealistic to do.
On the other hand, I am worried that if there is a problem with Building 14, and if it is as I thought, then tonight's battle will be terrible.
I really can't handle this.
I really regret taking over this matter, if only I had pushed it to Lu Zhao at that time.
After noon, I took the time to take a nap, and I slept very unsteadily, and at one o'clock, Geng Huainan called me again, and said in a panic: "Master, my ability is limited, and I can't find out the situation of Grandma Meng's three sons, I'm really useless." ”
"Don't be discouraged, accompany your wife, I want to find a way." After hanging up the phone, I thought about it, and I still called Luo Mingchuan, no, I should call Lu Mingchuan now.
The Lu family is still very famous in the real estate industry, and Lu Mingchuan has now taken over the Lu family's industry, so if you ask him to check it, there should be no problem.
The phone rang a few times and was connected, and Lu Mingchuan's voice was obviously surprised: "Bai Li, I didn't expect you to look for me." ”
"I ...... I have something I want to ask you for, I'm in a hurry, can you help me? "I told him about the property in the name of Grandma Chameng's three sons, and he told me to wait a while.
Lu Mingchuan didn't let me wait long, only half an hour before and after, he called me back and said: "Mrs. Meng's three sons have not purchased real estate in their names recently, but a few months ago, they bought a single room in the name of Mrs. Meng in the Jinxiu Home Community. ”
