Chapter 8: Young People Who Don't Believe in Evil
I turned 10,000 over.
When the boy saw that there was so much extra money in his account, he jumped up from his chair in fright, and his speech became stammering: "This, so much? β
"Hmm." I smiled and nodded.
"There'sβthat's too much! I, I don't want so much, you just give a little bit, go next door, where do you need so much money! β
I lowered my voice and said to him, "Isn't it a haunted house next door?" If you want to go alone, you are afraid that you will encounter danger, so there is nothing wrong with giving a higher price. β
"There are no ghosts in this world! So I'm not in any danger, you really don't have to give me so much! β
It seems that this little king still has a little conscience and knows that he can't charge more. But how does he know that I just earned 100,000 yuan from Fan Yuelan, and now I conclude that it was a mistake to tattoo Fan Yuelan at the beginning, so this money will naturally become "ill-gotten gains", and the ill-gotten gains should be dispersed as soon as possible in order to live in peace, which is also the reason why I, who usually don't pull out iron cocks, am very generous to their mother and son today.
"Money, you take it, you can take it, whether you think it's worth it or not, anyway, the money sent from me will never be recovered. Moreover, I have a request. I said.
"What requirements?"
"First, you're going to be in that haunted house for more than an hour; Second, you have to make a live video of what is going on inside for me to see; Third ......"
Xiao Wang's face changed: "Wait, won't you come with me?" β
"No, you're the only one." I looked at him sincerely.
Xiao Wang suddenly understood: "No wonder I said why did you give me 10,000 so much!" So you don't go over! How? You're a big man, and you're still afraid of ghosts? β
"The devil is afraid of me!" I smiled.
Xiao Wang laughed disdainfully, obviously not believing my words.
I took out a small bell and handed it to him: "In the past, you hung this bell on the floor-to-ceiling window of the balcony. β
He took the bell with nothing unusual on his face.
Then, I pulled out my secret weapon from the zippered compartment of my wallet, a stack of talismans: "This is the fourth thing I want you to do, hang up the bells and put them on all the doors and windows." Then open the door to the balcony. β
Seeing the talisman, Xiao Wang was a little surprised: "Wait! Aren't you a writer? How can there be a charm? Who the hell are you? β
I opened my eyes and said nonsense: "I write novels, but I also have a part-time side job selling talismans." β
"I don't believe it!"
"Really!"
Seeing that Xiao Wang still didn't believe it, I could only make it up as if it was true: "I didn't lie to you, I'm really a novelist, who says that those who sell characters can't write novels?" Look at how popular the novels that write ghost stories are these days! Since I'm selling talismans to catch ghosts, this is a natural advantage, isn't it? Since I have an advantage, then I will write down all the stories I have encountered in selling talismans and catching ghosts in my life and post them on the Internet. If you still don't believe me, you can go to a website called Black Rock and search for a novel called "Assassin Soul"! β
"Really??"
I boasted that even I almost believed it: "It's true! β
Xiao Wang looked at me suspiciously for a while, then finally laughed, exited the Alipay page on his mobile phone, and said to me: "You people who write novels can make it up, and it is the same as the real thing!" Anyway, no matter if what you say is true or not, since I have received your money, I will do as you say. Earn 10,000 yuan an hour, and you don't lose at all. β
"Uh-huh!" I smiled and nodded.
Xiao Wang found his selfie stick, adjusted the angle of the phone, added my WeChat friends, and opened a video call with me.
Then, he checked the talisman in his fanny pack, and when he flipped to the back of the talisman, he smiled: "Double-sided tape? β
Well, I have pasted the double-sided tape on the back of the charm, and when I use it, as long as the double-sided tape is removed, it can be directly pasted to the place where I want to paste it, which is very convenient. Otherwise, do you think that just like the one filmed in the TV series, a piece of paper can be pasted on the door of a zombie's head for no reason?
"It's so down-to-earth." Xiao Wang checked his waist bag and said.
I told him: "Remember, all doors and windows must be labeled, and never miss a single door, this is very important, it can save your life at a critical moment!" β
"There are no ghosts in this world." Xiao Wang said contemptuously.
After checking everything, he set off.
The balconies of these two houses are adjacent, and when I listened to Aunt Wang's story in the living room before, I noticed that the balconies of the two houses were not far apart, and for a mature man with strong skills, he could still climb over it, so I moved the idea to Aunt Wang's son.
Xiao Wang really lived up to my expectations, he climbed over from his balcony, his movements were steady, and it seemed that nothing would happen.
Unexpectedly, just as Xiao Wang was about to climb to Fan Yuelan's house, suddenly Aunt Wang's scream came out: "What are you doing?!" β
I turned my head and saw Aunt Wang hurriedly walking out of the balcony, and when she saw her son hanging in the air, her face turned pale, and she said angrily, "Ah Sheng, what are you doing?" β
Xiao Wang rolled his eyes and said, "Mom, don't worry about it, you go back to the house!" β
Aunt Wang shouted in panic: "You come back for me!" β
"Nope."
"Y-What do you want to do?"
Xiao Wang was not afraid of death and said, "I'm going to go next door and see if there are really ghosts?" If there are no ghosts, Mom, then you don't have to worry about it anymore. β
"I won't let you go! You give me back! Aunt Wang lay on the balcony and shouted hysterically: "Ah Sheng! There was a demon in that house, and you saw it that day, but the child was forced to fall off the balcony! If you have something that is long and short, what will you do with me and your dad?! β
"Mom! There are no ghosts in this world! β
"No, you come back for me, otherwise, I'll go and look for you!" After speaking, the angry Aunt Wang was about to climb onto the balcony.
As soon as I saw that the situation was not good, I hurriedly grabbed Aunt Wang, Aunt Wang is a woman, and she is still a little old, and it is too risky for her to do this high-rise balcony climbing.
In order to appease Aunt Wang, I said, "Auntie, don't worry, you see that the balcony of your two houses is so close, if something really happens over there later, I promise to rush over to save your son as soon as possible." Don't worry, I'm here, no problem! β
"You?" That's when Aunt Wang noticed me.
"Cut!" After listening to my words, Xiao Wang laughed disdainfully and said, "If you really have the courage to come over, you won't give me money, let me come by myself, great writer!" After saying that, he climbed into Fan Yuelan's house.
The person was already standing safely on the balcony next door, and no matter how unwilling Aunt Wang was, she couldn't get it back, so I let go of Aunt Wang. Unexpectedly, as soon as I let go, I received a solid slap in the face!
"It's you!" Aunt Wang red-eyed and tremblingly scolded: "I shouldn't have let you into the house if I knew that I wouldn't have gotten into the house, so that you wouldn't trick my son into going to a haunted house!" There really is a ghost in that house, a demon that wants to kill people! Are all the stories you and I tell fake? Her husband broke his finger, and his son almost died! These are bloody realities! If my son has something long and short, I'm going to fight with you!! β
As soon as I was about to say something, Xiao Wang's lazy voice came from the balcony next door: "Okay, Mom! Don't want to die or live, there are no ghosts in this world, don't embarrass him, I want to come over willingly. I'll just come over for an hour, shoot some material for the big writers, and go back to write a novel, and I won't stay for a minute longer. It's just an hour, nothing will happen, and there's money to take, what a good thing. 10,000 yuan an hour, I will never encounter such a simple and easy thing in my life. Don't be afraid, when I'm done with the big writer, I'll buy you a beautiful dress and go square dancing when I get back! β
Square dancing.
I couldn't help but laugh a little.
Xiao Wang hung the bell on the floor-to-ceiling window of the balcony, and he flicked it with his fingers, but it didn't ring.
"Great writer, why doesn't your bell ring?" Xiao Wang asked.
I said, "It will ring when it's time to ring." β
Xiao Wang laughed contemptuously: "You guys who write novels love to say some tricky things!" β
After that, he was going to enter the house.
I told me uneasily: "Remember, everything I tell you must be done properly, if you can't do one less thing, be careful and your life will not be saved!" β
