"What the hell, such an evil sect!" After seeing the scene in the brazier, Qi Zhan put away the banter on his face and came to Hao Yunlai's side.

Hao Yunlai stared at the gradually extinguishing flames without saying a word.

As the spark jumped, she suddenly remembered something, and looked at Qi Zhan eagerly, "What did you just say?" ”

"I—What did I say?" Qi Zhan frowned and said tentatively, "What the hell, such an evil sect?" ”

"Not that!"

Qi Zhan quickly turned his brain and continued to answer, "I'm talking about Hao Linlin's stepmother!" actually showed him "The First Seven"? ”

"No, no, a little bit earlier, you remember it was an old movie or something." Hao Yunlai became a little excited.

"Oh!" Qi Zhan slapped his head and suddenly realized, "I remember that it was an old movie, and it scared people to death when it first came out." ”

"Who scared to death?"

"How do I remember this? You can't find out if you search the Internet yourself. ”

Hao Yunlai hurriedly got up, took out a laptop from the room, typed the words "first seven" in the browser, and hastily scanned the various encyclopedias and video playback websites on page 1, she saw an article titled "This Hong Kong ghost film has been banned for 5 years for scaring people to death" at the beginning of page 2, clicked to enter, and read the full text word by word, only to find out that this article is actually a film review that analyzes the plot, and the last paragraph at the end is like this:

"By checking the information, it was found that at the beginning of the release of this movie in 1989, an audience named 'Li Xiaoyan' was scared to death at the scene, which led to the ban on the film, and after investigation, it was found that the audience who was scared to death was a heart patient."

Hao Yunlai stared at the screen and pondered for a long time, and then lightly opened his lips.

"Li Xiaoyan."

Hao Yunlai's voice broke the silence in the crowded living room, making Qi Zhan suddenly realize that something was wrong in the room.

What he couldn't see was a wisp of green smoke rising from the disc, and a moment later, it transformed into a young woman floating in the air. She was very thin, wearing a pale green dress at this time, and her exposed calves and arms were almost skinny.

Hao Yunlai looked up at the translucent soul body, "You should go." ”

Li Xiaoyan just looked ahead blankly and said nothing.

Of course, she couldn't make a sound.

A name is the shortest spell in the world. It binds the most fundamental form of the spiritual creatures in the world, and it will never stop until death.

"Li Xiaoyan, time of death: 5:27:21 on May 26, 1989, finally found." There was a familiar child's voice in his ears, and before he turned back, a black steel cable flew from behind Hao Yunlai, and the moment he was about to touch Li Xiaoyan, the head of the rope instantly turned into two flexible steel claws, firmly imprisoning him.

It seems primitive, but it works.

A teenage girl stepped forward, wearing a popular purple T-shirt with four big characters printed on it: "All evildoers".

"Ah Piao, you're here!" Hao Yunlai's eyes showed surprise.

"Time is pressing, let's talk." The little girl took Li Xiaoyan and walked out, "Otherwise, those two impermanences will come again." ”

The little girl smiled sweetly at Hao Yunlai, and then turned into green smoke with Li Xiaoyan and floated out of the window.

"Oh." Hao Yunlai made an "OK" gesture to the window due south.

"It's all over?" Qi Zhan couldn't help but guess when he saw Hao Yunlai finish talking to himself.

Hao Yunlai looked at the cauldron that had long been devoid of open flames, and saw that the disc gradually curled up, and after a while, it turned into black ashes.

"It's over."

***

After dinner, Hao Yunlai dialed Hao Linlin's biological mother's phone.

“Hello.”

Hao Linlin was born with thick eyebrows and big eyes, red lips and white teeth, all of them were with his biological mother. If only based on the deep and deep voice coming from the microphone, no one can guess that the owner of this voice, that is, Hao Linlin's biological mother, Yang Yufen, actually looks very classical Chinese beauty, with a face like a silver plate and eyes like apricots.

"Hello aunt, I'm Yunlai."

"Lailai, I haven't seen you for a long time, why did you suddenly remember to call your aunt?"

There shouldn't be a mother who wants to hear Hao Yunlai's next words, she took a deep breath and spoke hard, "I want to talk to you about Lin Lin's affairs, I feel that he is better off living with you." ”

From Hao Yunlai's words, Yang Yufen could faintly feel the seriousness of the situation, "Lin Lin...... What happened to him? ”

"Lin Lin's stepmother often forces him to watch horror movies, and in the long run, it may affect his physical and mental health."

There was no more sound coming from the other side of the microphone for a while, as if he was trying to restrain something.

A few seconds later.

"Where is Lin Lin now?"

"He's staying with me for the time being."

"Then I'll trouble you first, I'll deal with the matter at hand, and try to buy a ticket to fly back tomorrow."

"yes, okay."

Fortunately, Yang Yufen is a strong and rational woman, and Hao Yunlai breathed a sigh of relief after putting down the phone.

"2 minutes and 10 seconds." Qi Zhan pressed the stop button on the stopwatch, "The time is well controlled." ”

Hao Yunlai sat at the dining table and opened the blue notebook with the logo of Nanzhou University in his hand, "Okay, let's talk about the old lady's business." ”

Qi Zhan sat opposite Hao Yunlai, on the small round table between the two, there was a white porcelain plate full of spicy strips, which can be referred to as the "spicy strip platter". Qi Zhan picked up a small gluten with stainless steel chopsticks with great enjoyment, "It's also pitiful to say, that old lady is now in her seventies, and she originally had a son, if she was alive, she should be about thirty years old." ”

"Then she is still an advanced maternal age, and she must have been in her forties when she gave birth."

"It's not, I worked hard to give birth to a son, and I was very spoiled, but in the end, it was the white-haired man who sent the black-haired man." Speaking of this, Qi Zhan paused for a moment and stuffed a piece of kiss into his mouth, "This is her son." ”

"How?"

"Her son has been dead for more than two years, and somehow, the old lady has been dreaming that he is driving around in a car for the past two days, and the car looks exactly like the one that the family burned on the Qingming Festival."

"Isn't that a good thing? Buyer's show. ”

It was probably his son who thanked his old mother for his dream after receiving the car. It's just that what makes Hao Yunlai feel strange is that people who have been dead for two years are still wandering in the world? Why did it take more than four months to express my gratitude?

"I thought it was a good thing at first, but the old lady said that every time she woke up, she got goosebumps all over her body, and she felt eerie, and I really didn't know what she was afraid of with her own son."

The spicy strips in the porcelain plate had bottomed out, and Hao Yunlai glanced at Qi Zhan, who was satisfied, with some envy, "Let's go over and have a look first." ”

"I've made an appointment for you, and I'll take you there at two o'clock tomorrow afternoon." Qi Zhan picked up the bowl and walked to the pool.

"Okay, then I'll go back to my room and do some homework." Hao Yunlai finished the last stroke, closed the notebook and got up and walked back to the room.

Hao Yunlai opened his suitcase and took out the notebook that recorded all kinds of ghosts.

"Will you give dreams to others, is it a ghost of injustice, or a ghost of debt?" Hao Yunlai muttered as he looked through it.

"Sister, what are you looking at?" Hao Linlin, who was originally sitting quietly on the bed watching cartoons, saw Hao Yunlai staring at a small broken book and reading words, and curiously leaned to her right hand.

Hao Yunlai was just about to answer, when a little girl's voice came from the right hand.

"Your sister is looking at the Ghost Observation Diary."

Hao Yunlai twisted his head to the right, Ah Piao was still wearing the same purple T-shirt as in the afternoon, under the black fisherman's hat was a small and delicate melon seed face, and the raised eyebrows and eyes were full of natural heroism, provided that he ignored this non-mainstream dress, especially the black and white plaid shorts worn by nine out of ten people on the street.

"You go play with Uncle Qi for a while." Afraid that when she communicated with Ah Piao later, she would stimulate Hao Linlin, so she picked up Hao Linlin's tablet watching cartoons and stuffed it into his hand.

Hao Linlin hugged the tablet and walked to Qi Zhan's door with a puzzled expression.

"Who is this kid?" Ah Piao naturally lay on Hao Yunlai's bed.

"My cousin." Hao Yunlai closed the door.

"Holy! Your great uncle's son? Ah Piao sat up cross-legged, "You lack heart, that old man treated you so much before, and you are still willing to help him take care of his son?" ”

"Lin Lin didn't do anything wrong, and they told me that Lin Lin can see ghosts, so I'll go and see what's going on."

Ah Piao's face will turn red when she is angry, which is exactly the same physiological reaction as a normal person, and sometimes Hao Yunlai can't tell whether she is a human or a ghost.

When Hao Yunlai was fifteen years old, he met Ah Piao for the first time. At that time, there was an Internet celebrity burger restaurant near her middle school, and the wind was blowing strongly among the students. She thought she was fast enough, but before she could get closer, she saw that the line had already lined up from inside the store to outside the store. Thinking that the time required to make the burger should be quite short, Hao Yunlai decided to wait patiently for a while, who knows, this wait is more than an hour. When it was finally his turn, a seven or eight-year-old girl in a purple gauze dress walked up to him as if no one was around.

Seeing this little girl who had just reached her waist, Hao Yunlai, who was bullying the soft and afraid of the hard, quietly took two steps forward, blocking her view of the menu with her huge back. What Hao Yunlai didn't expect was that the little girl had to go around in front of him inch by inch.

"I said that this kid is not right to cut the line." Hao Yunlai smiled falsely.

The little girl glanced up at Hao Yunlai with an extremely surprised expression.

"Can you see me?"

Hao Yunlai was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously looked down.

There was no shadow at the feet of the little girl.

Hao Yunlai's smile gradually froze.

"Hello, this is the burger you ordered." The waiter at the pick-up table handed over a brown paper bag with two hamburgers in it, which Hao Yunlai had bought for himself and Qi Zhan.

"Oh, thank you." Hao Yunlai came back to his senses, looked up to take it, and saw a familiar look of sympathy appear on the waiter's face that should have been businesslike.

Hao Yunlai took the brown paper bag and hurriedly walked out of the store.

"Why are you walking so fast?"

The little girl panted and chased after her.
