Chapter 40: Back to the Roots

I tightened Yunshuang's clothes all of a sudden, and her hands were a little heavy, she hissed and turned her head to look at me: "What are you doing?" ”

"Didn't you see that?" I asked Yunshuang.

"You said that little female ghost?" Yunshuang said indifferently, "I see, it should be this little thing that is causing trouble." ”

I hurriedly said: "Then let's go and help Li Shuangzhu take down that little devil now, and the matter will be solved perfectly." ”

The battery car braked suddenly, due to inertia, my face suddenly smashed on Yunshuang's back, my nose hurt, and I didn't have a good breath and said: "Don't notify you first when you stop the car!" ”

"Bai Li, do you know what merit is?" Yunshuang asked me.

"Of course." I replied, "Merit is the good fortune that comes after doing good deeds, solving problems for others, punishing evil forces, and upholding justice, and the more good deeds you do, the more merit you will accumulate, and the more good fortune you will have." ”

Yunshuang nodded: "That's roughly what it means, but not every time you do good deeds, you can get merit, you do different good deeds, and the amount of merit you get is different, and if you do wrong good deeds, you will also create karma." ”

I frowned, Yunshuang wouldn't tell me this for no reason, she had something to say, I thought about it and said, "You mean, Li Shuangzhu's matter can't be ended in such a hurry, and the little female ghost is not the culprit?" ”

"At least I don't see how much malice she has towards Li Shuangzhu." Yunshuang said.

Yes, there is also a long way from the Bauhinia Garden Community to the viaduct, if the target of the little female ghost is Li Shuangzhu, there are many opportunities to kill him, but she didn't.

Her soul has been trapped in the trunk of the car for I don't know how long, her death has nothing to do with Li Shuangzhu, but Li Shuangzhu bought this car and has become the owner of this car, so the little female ghost can only find a way to use Li Shuangzhu to achieve some purpose.

Therefore, we helped Li Shuangzhu, not to kill this innocent little female ghost, which is simply to help the abuse, but to find the roots.

"Then we have to catch the little female ghost first, and ask her what grievances she has, maybe we can find clues." I proposed.

"I found that you have a strong theoretical knowledge, but you don't know much about cultivation, and you don't know anything about demons, monsters, ghosts, ghosts, and ghosts, who gave you the guts to harm Brother Mo?" Yunshuang said in disgust.

I shrugged my shoulders and said helplessly: "After all, I am young, I have little experience, and I don't know much, so I don't want to learn from you." ”

"It's a nuisance." Yunshuang complained while having to give me this pig teammate popular science, "Not all ghosts can communicate with people and can speak human words, and ghosts with low level or who died before they can only communicate in ghost language." ”

"That's why, someone in the family has just died, and the loved ones always feel like there is a voice in their ears, listen carefully, but they can only hear the continuous sound of the wind, in fact, it is not the wind, but the person who has just died is saying goodbye or telling grievances, saying ghost words, ordinary people can't understand it, they just think it's the wind."

I was puzzled: "Babies who die young have never learned to speak human language, and I understand that they can speak ghost language after death. ”

"Speaking human words, it's just the control of the body's functions, and after the ghost leaves the body, it loses a series of human habits, which is normal." Yun Shuang said patiently, "The new soul still has human thoughts, and there will be emotions such as longing, reluctance, and grievances, but as time goes by, this bit of human nature will gradually fade, and the habits of ghosts will begin to prevail." ”

"Unless it is a ghost who has a particularly deep grudge, has suffered great grievances or is very obsessed, can always maintain these emotions."

"After the ghost wanders out of the body, it is like being implanted with a special chip, and quickly learns the habits that ghosts should have, and cultivation and aggression are their main tasks, and the cultivation itself is good and bad, the good ones become immortals, but the success rate is so small that it can be ignored, and the bad ones become powerful ghosts, and they continue to cultivate, relying on devouring the surrounding souls, absorbing the essence of the sun and the moon, and even absorbing the essence of people, and finally becoming a hegemon, for the ghost king."

"There is still a ghost slave under the ghost king......"

I was listening to it with relish, and Yunshuang suddenly paused: "What are you doing with so much, wasting my saliva." ”

"Tell me about it, my master has never told me about this, I didn't expect the world of ghosts to be so complicated." I hugged Yunshuang's arm and begged.

Yunshuang refused to say: "The Three Realms and Six Realms coexist in one heaven and earth, in a thousand ways, and you can't finish talking about it for ten days and ten nights, you just need to understand that ghosts are different from people, their inferior roots are very strong, and they change very quickly, today they may still be a poor little ghost, and tomorrow they may be a big devil who kills people without blinking, don't believe the words of ghosts, you have to firmly believe in one point - there are many ghost words, understand?" ”

I nodded again and again, and I didn't bother anymore: "So, you mean, that little female ghost has been suppressed in the back compartment for I don't know how many years, she has never been in contact with other ghosts, and she is currently low in rank and can't speak human words, only ghost language, we can't communicate with her, right?" ”

"Who told you she's low?" Yunshuang asked me rhetorically.

I was stunned for a moment, and she continued, "Don't you see her eyes? ”

"Of course I do." As soon as I thought of the eyes of the little female ghost, I shuddered, "She has no whites of her eyes, and her eyes are black and hollow." ”

Yunshuang nodded: "Whether a ghost has a grudge or not, whether the resentment is big or small, just look at its eyes, only the whites of the eyes and no black eyeballs are ordinary ghosts, there is no resentment on the body, and the aggression is not great; The eyes are very large, and the whites of the eyes are as thin as silk threads, and they are resentful ghosts, and they are unwilling to die; There are only black eyeballs without whites, and there is a lot of resentment, and he suffered great grievances before he died; Those who only have eye sockets without whites and black eyeballs are evil ghosts, and they have a certain cultivation foundation, so they can not provoke them. ”

"Demons are the most terrible." I concluded.

Yunshuang shook his head: "There is also a kind of ghost, the eyes are no different from ordinary people, but when the force is exerted, there is a blood-red flame dancing in the eyeballs, this kind of ghost, not the ghost king, but also the fighter among the ghosts, if you really want to encounter it, wait for death." ”

I shuddered involuntarily, and sure enough, the most powerful ones are generally deeply hidden, and there are no obvious features for you to distinguish.

"Then according to your analysis, the little female ghost should belong to the category of great grievances before death, if we don't move quickly, she is likely to be quickly blackened, right?" I don't know why, but I'm a little reluctant to give up that little female ghost at the moment.

"I'll send you back first, have a good night's rest, and if Li Shuangzhu can't give us useful information tomorrow, we will have to forcibly intervene." Yunshuang sighed, "Brother Mo was calculated by you, it was too sudden, we couldn't gather all of our people for a while, and we were really embarrassed to shrink back from everything." ”

"Your manpower? Do you have a lot of friends? I wondered.

Yunshuang pursed her lips and didn't answer me, but just started the battery car and drove me back to the ancient street.

Along the way, I looked at her back, thinking about Mo Xianye, but I couldn't see through them more and more.

How long did Mo Xianye live? How many people are behind him to support him? He...... How long will you stay with me?

I found out that I had fallen from one wolf's den into another, and it was dangerous everywhere.

I deliberately alienate Yun Sheng now, but I also understand that Mo Xianye is not my lover after all, and we will have no results.

The abbot of Qingfeng Temple said that Mo Xianye has no fixed place to live, and the four seas are his home, and he does not belong to a certain place or organization, let alone a certain person.

He's just a passerby in my life.

Yunshuang sent me to the door of the store and left, it was already past four o'clock, and soon it was dawn, I went back to wash up, and went to sleep.

Maybe it was because the words Yunshuang told me opened the door to a new world for me, and after just three or four hours of sleep, I had a lot of dreams that caused me to wake up the next morning with black circles like a giant panda.

Just after breakfast, I was sitting listlessly behind the counter and napping when my phone rang.

When I picked it up, it was Li Shuangzhu calling, and as soon as he got through, he said excitedly: "Master, I found it, the police station helped me find the original owner of this car." ”

"Really!" I was pleasantly surprised, "Are you at the police station now?" Has the other party arrived? ”

"Yes, I'm here at the police station, although I know the owner's information, but I can't contact it at the moment, I plan to visit in person according to the address provided here, fortunately it's not far away." Li Shuangzhu's haze for so many days was swept away because of this news, and the whole person spoke with spirit.

I think of what Yunshuang said to me yesterday, I am quite reluctant to let that little female ghost go, if the matter is resolved, I can help her get over the soul and help her enter reincarnation as soon as possible, which is really a merit for us.

Thinking of this, I said, "Well, do you need me to accompany you?" ”

"Is that okay?" Li Shuangzhu said excitedly, "If you can go with me, I can't ask for it." ”

I agreed, and I wanted to ask Yunshuang if I wanted to go with me, but I found that I didn't even have her phone number.

I first went to meet with Li Shuangzhu, and wanted to ask Li Shuangzhu directly for Yunshuang's phone number, but I couldn't ask for it, and I felt a little embarrassed.

I'm in the same group as Yunshuang, but I still have to ask a subject for my partner's contact information, which is really embarrassing, and I can't hold back when I think about it.

I glanced at the address that Li Shuangzhu got, which was in the area of Xizhiqiao in Jiangcheng City, and it took about 20 minutes to drive to the Chengxi Viaduct.

No wonder the little female ghost always has to take Li Shuangzhu to the viaduct, it seems that she wants to go home.

Now that you have found the original owner, you can figure out the cause and effect of the matter, and maybe you can solve the matter without much effort, it doesn't matter if Yunshuang goes or not, right?

Thinking so, I decided to go to Xizhiqiao with Li Shuangzhu first.

Li Shuangzhu drove the car, and I sat in the back seat, staring over his shoulder.

Generally speaking, when the ghost rides the shoulder, the shoulder will collapse down, and the back will be arched, but Li Shuangzhu does not have this performance, it seems that the little female ghost does not often ride on his shoulder, so where is she hiding during the day?

Trunk?

Suddenly, I felt a chill in the back of my head.

I can't help but sigh, whether you buy a car or a house in the future, it's best not to buy second-hand or even change hands, if you have to buy, you have to carefully investigate the source of the house, if you encounter Li Shuangzhu, you can really make people anxious bald.

After the car got off the highway and drove onto a street, we found an uncle on the side of the road and asked if the original owner of the car still lived in Xizhi Street, but when I asked, Hula surrounded a few uncles and aunts, and chattered about it.

"Ah, I said why is this car so familiar, isn't this the car that the Zhang family had an accident more than two years ago?"

"Yes, it's this car, the license plate has been changed, but the appearance hasn't changed, it's Zhang Nian's kid."

"What are you looking for Zhang for a year? Is there something wrong with this car? ”

"I think it must be, such a wicked car, whoever buys it will be fooled."

……

"That, Auntie, did something happen to this car more than two years ago?" I interrupted their discussion and asked.

The aunt slapped her thigh and said, "Girl, let me tell you, it's miserable!" ”

"More than two years ago, in the summer, the little girl of the Zhang family got into the trunk of the car, and was suffocated to death in the trunk of the car.

"Yes, I went to see it at the beginning, and the little girl was huddled in the trunk of the car, and her body was ......."

"Don't talk about it, old man, be careful of nightmares at night."

"Don't say it, don't say it, girl, I advise you not to go to Zhang Yinian and his wife, people have finally come out of the shadow of the pain of losing their daughter, and the youngest son is only more than two years old, you guys, I'm afraid I can't live this day."

……

The old men shook their heads again and again, and they sat in the corners of the wall and on the threshold, their eyes staring at us, as if we were heinous if we went to find Zhang for a year.

I looked at Li Shuangzhu: "What do you think?" ”

"I ...... I definitely don't want to disturb people, but if I want a car, I'm afraid I won't be able to go down these days, and I can't lose more than 20,000 yuan in vain if I don't want a car, right? If I had money, forget it, the key is my family, hey. Li Shuangzhu was also very embarrassed.

It's not easy for everyone, Li Shuangzhu actually understands what he means, he doesn't want to get the money back for the car, otherwise he would have gone to the person who resold the car to him, instead of looking for the original owner.

What he meant was to find the original owner of the car and take the little female ghost away, and the car was still driving.

I let out a breath and finally decided to go with him for a while.

Running all the way, it was already about eleven o'clock at noon, in the middle of September of the lunar calendar, the sun was still a little hot, and a thin layer of sweat appeared on the body.

Zhang Nian's family lives in a small two-story building at the end of the town, and when we passed, a woman in her thirties was playing with a little boy of two or three years old at the door.

I walked up and asked, "Is it Mr. Zhang's house?" ”

The woman raised her eyes to me and nodded: "It's Zhang Nian's family, may I ask you ......?"

"Oh, I'm here to ask Mr. Zhang about something." I looked at Li Shuangzhu and wanted him to explain our intentions, but Li Shuangzhu couldn't say anything, so I had to bite the bullet and say, "That's the case, this Mr. Li bought a second-hand car some time ago, something went wrong, and the investigation found out that the original owner of the car was you, so we wanted to ask Mr. Zhang about the specific situation of the car, so that we can deal with it." ”

As soon as I said this, the woman's face immediately became ugly: "My husband went to work, and he ...... at noon."

As she spoke, there was the sound of footsteps behind us, and when we looked back, we saw a man in his thirties, dressed in blue overalls, walking quickly towards this direction.

The woman shouted, "One year." ”

"Who are these two?" Zhang Nian asked.

I told the future again, and Zhang Nian's face changed, but he still let us into the house, helped us pour tea, let the woman cook, and left us here for lunch, which was very polite.

"I bought this car three years ago, mainly because my eldest daughter was sick at that time, and she always needed to run to the city, and it was very inconvenient to go back and forth, and my wife happened to be pregnant with a second child at that time, and we couldn't take care of it, so I gritted my teeth and bought this scooter to save time back and forth."

Zhang told us that at that time, his family's economic conditions were very bad, and the eldest daughter's illness was a bottomless pit, but they never gave up treatment, and the adults were bitter, as long as the children were safe and healthy, but they didn't expect that the accident happened quietly.

It was the summer of two years ago, Zhang's wife had fetal gas and was urgently sent to the county hospital to protect the fetus.

Zhang Yinian arranged for his wife to stay, and then took his daughter home to pack up his daily necessities and prepare to go to the county hospital to accompany his wife.

The car was parked in front of the house, the trunk was open, and there were snacks that Zhang bought on the road for a year, and his daughter was playing at the door of the house, and he went upstairs to pack his things.

After being busy and just cleaning up, a call came from the hospital, saying that his wife was red again and was in critical condition, so he stuffed all the things he packed into the trunk and rushed to the hospital.

Speaking of this, Zhang Nian's eyes were red, and he looked very remorseful: "I remember that day was very hot, I was sweating profusely, and I didn't have time to take care of anything else when I arrived at the hospital, so I rushed directly to the ward, and even forgot about my daughter, and when my wife's condition stabilized, I remembered that I hadn't seen my daughter for a long time, and I thought that maybe the child went to play at another neighbor's house at the door, so I quickly went back to find it." ”

"Search, search, search, search for a long time, no one saw my daughter, I even thought about whether my daughter would be lost and taken away by human traffickers, I was really desperate at the time, and I went to the patrol bureau to report to the police and made a record."

"But...... But no one expected that when I opened the trunk and took out the contents of it, I would see ...... See ......"

Zhang Nian said this, he couldn't say it anymore, his wife carried her son into the room at that time, and then heard the sound of crying and crying, and her heart was full of sadness for a while.

What did Zhang Yinian see in the trunk, it goes without saying that the little girl was blocked in the trunk by her biological father who didn't pay attention, and was suffocated to death, how can such a tragedy not make people sad?

Li Shuangzhu and I sat cramped there, comforting them one by one, but at this time, all the words seemed so pale.

It wasn't until Zhang Yien's mood finally calmed down that I dared to ask: "Mr. Zhang, to tell you the truth, your daughter has not left, which has had a great impact on Mr. Li's life, so we thought, can you help us communicate, maybe we can send her away?" ”

Zhang Nian said to Li Shuangzhu very straightforwardly: "Brother, I'm sorry, I really didn't mean to cause you trouble." ”

"Actually, logically speaking, this car had such a problem, I shouldn't have sold it, but at that time, I was poor, my daughter was sick and emptied the family, my wife didn't keep the fetus, my son was born prematurely, and I couldn't breathe because of the large expenses, this car was bought for the convenience of my daughter's medical treatment, she was gone, and the car was useless, so I found someone to help my daughter do a ritual, and the mage said that he had sent her soul away, so I found an intermediary to redeem the car."

"It's been more than two years, I didn't expect the car to go around and turn into your hands, and I didn't expect the mage to lie to me, my daughter hasn't left yet, but this may be God has mercy on me, and now my conditions are slowly getting better, he wants me to see my daughter again, right?"

"Mr. Li, let's do it, you give me back this car, and I will compensate you for the money you paid for the car, okay?"

Li Shuangzhu was stunned, he didn't expect Zhang Nian to be so reasonable, he hesitated, looked at me, and I said that it was up to him to choose.

"Mr. Li, please do well, fulfill my father's love for his daughter, our father and daughter have the same heart, maybe she is messing with you, but also to let you send her back to reunite with us?" Zhang Nian's words were sour in people's hearts, and Li Shuangzhu was also a person who had just become a father, so he couldn't see this the most, so he agreed.

Zhang Yinian directly transferred the money to Li Shuangzhu, and as for what to do with the car in the future, they said that they could contact them by phone at any time.

When we came, we never thought that things could be solved so satisfactorily, and when we left, Zhang Yinian also took a taxi for us to take us back.

Li Shuangzhu and I both sighed, this is really a distressing good person.

After getting off the viaduct, Li Shuangzhu and I parted ways, and he happily said that he would take advantage of the holiday to go back and play with his wife and parents for two days, probably because he was touched by Zhang's year-old affairs.

I transferred the bus back to the store, it was already evening, I glanced at my phone, and I was stunned, today is Friday again.

After tomorrow, it's the weekend again, and Mo Xianye will definitely come.

But two days ago, I went to Lu Wuye's side to fight grass and snakes, I'm afraid this weekend will be uneasy, right?

Thinking of this, I became irritable again, lying in bed after dinner, reading and not reading, the TV was on, and I didn't know what to put on, my mind was full of how I should cope with the past this weekend, and I thought of many plans, but none of them were perfect.

Tossed until I just fell asleep in the middle of the night, suddenly a burst of crying came, very immature, I straightened my back all of a sudden, pricked up my ears and listened carefully, and I didn't dare to come out.

The cry lasted so long that I quickly recognized that it was right in front of my shop.

I got up and crept to the back of the store.

There is a rule in the store that you are not allowed to open after midnight until three o'clock in the morning, but this rule has been broken by Mo Xianye before, and now I don't care.

I don't know why, the more I listened to that cry, the more sad I felt in my heart, and I couldn't help but remember what Li Shuangzhu said before, when he drove home from the night shift, he always heard immature crying.

I opened the door at once, and when I saw what was outside, I was stunned.

Standing outside was none other than the little female ghost who was riding on Li Shuangzhu's neck before, she was wearing a tattered white dress, her black eyes were staring at me, and two lines of blood and tears kept falling.
