Chapter 402: Out of the Haze
Knowing that something had happened, I hurriedly let go of Wu You's hand and looked coldly at the second balcony on the ninth floor with cold eyes.
Sure enough, the middle-aged woman on the balcony on the ninth floor had already discovered that Wu You was looking at herself, and at the same time, the resentful eyes were also firmly locked on her, the cold light shimmered, and under the blurred light of the night, it looked particularly cold and dazzling, like two mirrors reflecting cold light, and her expression was hideous and distorted.
At the moment when my gaze was firmly locked, the middle-aged woman also trembled slightly, and then shifted her resentful gaze to me, staring at each other condescendingly.
After about ten seconds, the cold light in those eyes faded and he lowered his head again and stopped looking at me.
At the same time, I also took my eyes back, took a step back with her, shook hands and made peace, so as to avoid the ferocity of the middle-aged female ghost who really stimulated this resentment to a certain limit, and then grabbed Wu You's wrist and pulled her to continue walking.
After all, she is a woman, and she has no experience in contact with these things that are difficult for ordinary people to see, unlike Xiao ...... Xiaowei was completely accustomed to that, and the moment she saw the female ghost, Wu You's mind lost for a moment, and then she was noticed by the target, and her soul was captured by her gaze. If it lasts a little longer, this woman's three souls and seven spirits will be frightened away, and even if she is called back, she will inevitably get sick, and it is even possible to be taken away directly by the female ghost.
And when I let go of her hand so that she could no longer see the target, it was equivalent to interrupting the female ghost's control over her, but if I found it a few seconds later, it would not be so easy.
There is an old saying called ten fingers connected to the heart, in fact, this person's ten fingers are not only connected to the heart, but also directly to the soul essence of the person, so after the ten fingers are entangled, Wu You's palm is completely buckled, and the twelve yuanchen, which has been further integrated with me, can also affect her, so that she can see the same thing as me. This is the twelfth yuanchen after the change, an extra very practical benefit, I didn't know at all, or after returning to the provincial capital, one night I went out shopping with Zhang Xiaowei, and I inadvertently found out.
"Am I in trouble?" After walking forward for dozens of meters without hurrying, Wu You, who was held by my wrist, gradually came back to his senses from the scene just now, and his body, which was a little cool, also recovered a little warmer, but his little face was still a little white.
The first time I really saw these things intuitively, and it was a very resentful ferocity, but I wasn't really frightened, and it was a lot better than I expected to come out so quickly.
"It's not a trouble, it's just a startling snake, but it doesn't matter, it's expected, but how are you now? You okay? ”
Wu You shook his head with a smile, and as he spoke, the blood on his face began to recover at a speed that seemed to be visible to the naked eye.
"It's okay, I've never seen these things, the first time I saw it, I was a little caught off guard, it's more of a spiritual impact, the impact of the inherent concepts of the past, this is not something that can be accepted at once." She laughed.
"It's okay, a lot of people actually see those things like this for the first time, and you're much better than them." Knowing that this woman was still a little frightened, I stopped arguing with her, and smiled comfortingly.
I don't know if it was at this time because I saw it again this time, it was rare to show the mild infection for the first time, Wu You was also rare at this time, and he didn't laugh like the two fools in the village anymore, which added a bit of femininity, and after looking at me and smiling, he sighed: "I always thought that these things were made up, and although you are a little Taoist, what you learn from the master is also those traditional Taoist thoughts, not those gods and ghosts in the movie, catching ghosts and driving away evil spirits and the like, I didn't expect it to be like this, but then again, what you asked me to see just now is really a female ghost? It can't be some kind of trick you are trying to scare me, right? ”
I shook my head and said, "Do you think I'm going to be bored enough to scare you with all these tricks?" Even if I had this idea, I just woke up today and saw you, and I was with you the rest of the day, so I don't have time to run around to get this. Anyway, it's already been seen by you, if you can still bear it, don't be scared stupid, and still want to, wait for you to see enough at once, and then you'll know whether it's true or not. ”
"What do you mean, we're going to be back later?" Wu You was slightly stunned.
"Of course, don't forget what I do, I just don't do my job when I go to school, in order to cope with the exam-oriented education, so that I won't be completely out of touch with society and become illiterate in the future." I grinned, and my face was obscene like a weird girl who had abducted a girl.
"Are you really a Taoist priest who catches ghosts and exorcises evil spirits?" Wu You was surprised.
I shook my head seriously and explained: "It's true to catch ghosts and exorcise evil spirits, but I need to repeat it again: I'm not a Taoist, and my master is not a Taoist, if you don't like to think about it, he should belong to a monk or a hermit during his lifetime, anyway, any monk can do it, but he can't be said to be a Taoist, because the identity of a Taoist priest is a taboo or even a taboo for our identity, so we are not allowed to call me a Taoist priest, let alone add a small word." ”
Seeing that I explained it seriously, Wu You immediately stopped laughing, pursed his lips and pressed his eyebrows after thinking for a while, then nodded seriously and said, "Okay little monk, I know, I will never call you little Taoist priest again in the future." ”
I was silent. I thought it would be better to continue to call the little Taoist, anyway, I was already called rotten by this woman when I was in middle school, and I didn't really become a Taoist because she called me that.
knew that unconsciously, this woman took the topic crookedly, and if she continued to entangle, it would only become more and more crooked, so she simply shut up.
"Okay, let's get back to business, we'll really have to come back later, go...... Catch that female ghost? Seeing that I was silent, the difficult woman in front of me stuck out her tongue to express her disgust, and then pulled the topic back again.
"Do you dare to come again?" I rolled my eyes and asked weakly.
"If you dare not take me, you dare to come." After rolling his eyes a few times, Wu You smiled: "I still don't dare to believe that this is true, or I still think that you are playing tricks to deliberately scare me, it is necessary to figure it out, so you are not afraid of the trick being exposed, if you dare to bring it, I will dare to come." ”
"Then don't waste any more time, go back and get ready, we'll come back." Seeing that she still didn't give up, her face was full of doubts, so she didn't say more, turned around and strode towards the place in front where she could get a car.
Wu You hurriedly followed, smiling like a goblin.
"There's a question, since you're going to catch ghosts, and you've said you've already scared snakes, why do you have to go home first and come back? Aren't you worried that this frightened female ghost will run away? Or are you pretty sure she won't run and go back to prepare for more tricks? ”
"Whether you are ready or not is secondary, mainly because you deliberately went to my house to pay New Year's greetings, you haven't eaten my family's meal, and you haven't gotten the New Year's red envelope? I don't want to be talked about by you every day because of this, otherwise I would waste no more time running back. ”
"Hey, hey, it's good that you know, what a well-behaved and obedient little ...... Monk. ”
I thought I had put a bait, and I finally succeeded in hooking this woman, but I didn't think that it was a foot tall and a foot high, but in fact, I was tricked into it by this seemingly heartless and harmless goblin.
When I was still halfway there, my mother called and asked us where we were, asking me to invite me to "Yoyo" for dinner anyway, and I couldn't let my family come for the New Year and go back hungry.
When I got home, I found that my parents and Sister Yun had spent an afternoon preparing dinner, and had made a table of dishes to keep warm on the cage drawer, waiting for us to come back and start the meal.
Speaking of which, this year, the family has never had a life at all, when other people's houses are full of joy, but the family is overwhelmed by the successive blows of the prospective daughter-in-law suddenly saying goodbye, and then the sudden death of the old man, which is completely dull and depressed and sad, and there is no trace of color in sight. And I have to admit that although Wu You is also full of suddenness, people are not psychologically prepared, but her difference is that she comes back suddenly, not suddenly, and the appearance of this woman happens to bring a touch of color to this family shrouded in thick dark clouds.
If it weren't for her arrival, the family, including myself, wouldn't have known how many days it would take to start coming out of the heavy blows that followed, even if it was just to stretch out the dark clouds above their heads a little, and my parents, mother, and Sister Yun would not be in the mood to make a big table of dishes today.
Therefore, carefully preparing for the afternoon is not only to entertain this "guest" who is always full of smiles, but also to start a family to come out of the haze and regain their strength.
So strictly speaking, I should really thank this woman who laughed like a fool, but it infected me, and how much the whole family of women.
It's just that I'm completely used to not saying thank you as I have done for more than a decade, so I still won't do this time.
Of course, laughter and laughter can't be talked about, but because there is a guest like Wu You, the family can laugh after all, and my father even took out a bottle of liquor, and after everyone poured a glass, the rest was drunk with Grandpa and Luo Wenxin, and the three of them drank the whole bottle.
There is no need to prepare, because I don't need to prepare anything, after eating and cleaning up the mess together and sitting for a while, I was ready to leave with Wu You, as I got up to say goodbye to my grandfather and parents, this woman also received the New Year's red envelope as she wished, and she didn't even have a symbolic refusal, so she couldn't wait to accept it. With her light, Sister Li Linyun and I, and the fool Wang Xing also shared, and each received a red envelope from four elders, of course, the youngest Li Nuo is not to mention, even if there is no one missing, it will not be less than this little princess. Speaking of which, my "father" is the one who should give a large share, but this year is too depressing, and I forgot about this thing at all, and now my parents have given it, and it makes no sense for me to make up for it, so I can only seal a bigger one next year.
Then I left with her on the pretext of sending Wu You. As a result, Li Lin seemed to see something, and as soon as we went out with our front foot, he followed out with his back foot, asking us if we were going anywhere and if we could take him with us.
Speaking of which, Li Lin's younger brother is also to blame for that, because he has been studying outside all the year round, and he has not had the bumpy experience of picking up a life in the ghost gate, so his sense of presence at home has been a little low, and his parents' concern for him has never been able to catch up with me, but this kid is not a jealous person, and he is roughly a nervous person who has no heart and lungs, and his personality is very similar to Yuan Jinzhu, as long as he eats, wears and plays, he is in a state of laziness to think too much, even if he has flowers, he will not use it on his own people.
Because of what happened at home, Li Lin also lived a very depressed life this year, from the time he came back to the present, except for the day when he sent the old man up the mountain on the first day of the new year, he has never gone out, and it seems that he should not be able to hold back.
And he should also be able to see that when we go out, it's not as simple as strolling around the road and blowing the wind, otherwise no matter how boring we are, we won't run to be a light bulb or something.
I don't know how he saw it, or why he wanted to go along.
"Are you sure we're going to go shopping too?" I found this kid a little abnormal, and I couldn't help but ask.
"Go, of course you have to go, as long as you don't think I'm an eyesore, it's too boring at home." Li Lin said slowly, a little careless and weak, and at a glance, he knew that he hadn't slept much at night.
"So what if we don't go shopping, but grab those things?" I asked again.
Li Lin's eyes lit up, and the whole person instantly cheered up from the state of not sleeping enough: "Then I want to go even more, anyway, after so long, I haven't really seen those scenes, and I have long wanted to see them." ”
"Okay, then let you really see it, so that you don't have to do anything all day long, and think about what you don't have."
"Hey, it's long overdue, it makes no sense that others have already seen those things with you, and I, as your brother, have always been like seeing flowers in the fog, only a general concept. If you say it like this, you will let people know that I have a brother who specializes in this, but I don't know if I ask three questions, and it's not interesting for the cow to brag it. Li Lin smiled, a little cheeky and cheeky, no wonder his mother said that he was like Yuan Jinzhu before.
I was sure that this guy really wanted to follow, and he couldn't be idle at home, so I didn't say anything more, and turned to look at Wu You.
Wu You nodded happily, naturally he didn't have any opinions, so he walked down the road together.
