Chapter 5: The Strange Mother
After entering the house, Sister-in-law Zhang turned around a few times, then walked to the bedroom, looked around, frowned tightly, and said in a low and gloomy voice: "The yin qi in your house is so heavy!" It seems that there are real ghosts! ”
As soon as I heard this, I was so frightened that I quickly hid behind my father, and my father also said nervously: "Sister-in-law Zhang, where is the ghost?" Can you see ghosts? ”
"Right behind you!" Sister-in-law Zhang stared at her and suddenly turned to her father.
"Mom!"
I was standing behind my father, and when I heard this, I was so frightened that I almost didn't jump, and I screamed and ran away.
Dad also moved away with a white face, and behind him was a window, which was the old-fashioned wooden fan screen in the countryside, which could be opened and closed inward.
Because there is a big tree outside the house, which shades the sky and the sun, and the eaves are long, which blocks the light from the outside, the windows and the interior are very dark, and even in the daytime, it looks gloomy.
"Don't be afraid! Look at the old lady, I'll drive this evil ghost out! ”
Sister-in-law Zhang shouted loudly: "Taishang Laojun is as anxious as a law!" I'm the Great Immortal Master under the Queen Mother's seat, all the demons and monsters are out of here! ”
The voice was sharp and strong, and it shook my eardrums. I smacked my tongue secretly, although this sister-in-law's style is a bit like a master, but more like a shrew in the village.
In the shouting, I saw Sister-in-law Zhang stretched her hand forward suddenly, and waved it again, only to hear a strange sound of "whoosh" sounded chaotically, I was so frightened that my face was colorless, and my father and mother were also dumbfounded, but Sister-in-law Zhang clapped her hands, turned around, and said lightly: "Okay, the ghost has run away." ”
"Ran away?" Mom and Dad didn't react for a while, and I was a little surprised.
"yes." Sister-in-law Zhang said, "Didn't you hear the sound? Boom, that's the sound of a ghost running out of the window! ”
"Oh!" It dawned on us.
Sister-in-law Zhang pointed out the window and said, "Do you see what day it is outside?" ”
Dad said, "Daytime." ”
"Yes!" Sister-in-law Zhang said: "It's a blue sky and a white day outside, and the big sun is very poisonous!" This ghost was forced by me in the house, so I had to escape through the window, but there was this poisonous sun outside, and he would be sunburned to death as soon as he went out! Your family will be safe from now on. ”
I was half-convinced: "Really? ”
"This kid!" Sister-in-law Zhang glared and said, "Of course it's true!" Will I lie to you? ”
Dad was still a little unsure, and said, "Then do you want to do something else?" ”
"Of course." Sister-in-law Zhang said: "This God has the virtue of a good life, and I am also a cultivator, although fighting ghosts is this...... It's a thing, but it's also a killing. This one...... Lonely souls and wild ghosts are also very pitiful things, I can't just destroy them, I have to do a ritual, surpass them to reincarnate well, and then be good people in the next life. ”
Mom nodded again and again when she heard this, and said, "It's this Li'er, it's this Li'er." ”
Sister-in-law Zhang said: "Because these ghosts are making trouble in your house, you also have to do some strength." ”
Dad said: "What do you need us to do, Sister-in-law Zhang just orders." ”
Sister-in-law Zhang said: "That's okay, I won't say much, I want to do things, incense, paper, candles, steamed buns, and big meat...... You have to buy it, I really want to give you this money, but there is a debtor and a master, and the ghost values this the most, if the person who pays the money is wrong, they will not accept it even if they die, and after reincarnation, they will have to run to your family in the next life. ”
"Sister-in-law Zhang, needless to say, we have to pay for this money." Dad was sweating when he heard this, and said, "You just said how much it costs, right?" ”
Sister-in-law Zhang stretched out five fingers and said, "Less is not enough, more is useless, no more, no less, give fifty." ”
"Fifty?" Mom and Dad were taken aback.
In this era, fifty yuan is a lot of money for a small family like us, and many people work hard, and a month's salary is almost that.
Sister-in-law Zhang pursed her lips, rolled her eyes and said, "What? Too much? Don't want to? That's nothing, it's okay if you don't do this Fa thing, it's just that what will happen in the future......"
"Not much, not much, as it should be." Dad hurriedly said, "Sister-in-law Zhang, wait a minute, I'll get you the money." ”
Sister-in-law Zhang stopped talking.
When Dad handed the money to Sister-in-law Zhang in distress, Sister-in-law Zhang stuffed it into her trouser pocket and said, "Okay, then I'll go shopping, and when the time comes, I will directly overtake these lonely ghosts who are making trouble in your house in the temple." ”
"Okay, okay." Dad and Mom were submissive and kept sending Sister-in-law Zhang outside the gate, and of course I always followed.
After Sister-in-law Zhang left, father and mother, you look at me, and I look at you, all of them are full of sadness.
"Alas......" Dad sighed and said, "Fifty yuan, I don't know how many catties of wheat I have to sell." ”
"Don't count it." Although my mother was also in pain, she still comforted my father and said, "It's best to use it when it's fine." ”
"Let's hope nothing more."
"Well, I think Sister-in-law Zhang is quite capable."
As my father and mother spoke, I was silent.
It was daytime, nothing happened, and I also felt that after Sister-in-law Zhang's actions, my heart was indeed a lot more settled.
However, my worries have not all gone away.
I spent the rest of the day almost in agony, and then waited for the night to fall in mixed emotions of both anticipation and fear.
I hope that because I want to see if those things have been removed after Sister-in-law Zhang's spell.
I'm scared because I'm afraid those things won't go.
At night, my father and mother did not go out, probably because they were afraid that something would happen to me, but they were always by my side, from six o'clock until dinner, and nothing happened during this period.
After dinner, we sat in the house as a family of three and watched the black and white TV, not knowing what was going on in our hearts.
I don't know if it's because I'm absent-minded, or if I'm overly worried and in bad spirits, but looking at it, I want to fall asleep.
"Heh......"
"Heh......"
I yawned one after another, and in a daze, I heard my mother say, "Yes, go to sleep when you fall asleep." ”
I quickly rubbed my eyes, shook my head, and said, "I don't, I don't sleep alone." ”
Mom said, "Let's go, I'll be with you." Tonight, we will sleep in one room as a family of three. ”
"Good!" Then I stood up happily and took my mother's hand and walked to the back room.
When I got up, I saw that my father was still sitting still, and I said, "Dad, when are you going to sleep?" ”
"Just go and watch a little longer. Sleep first. Dad said.
I let out an "oh" and followed my mom.
The lights in the back room were not on, and when I walked in, I wanted to turn on the lights, but my mother said, "Don't turn on the lights, it's not that you don't know where the bed is, take off your clothes and come to sleep." ”
As she spoke, my mother took me by the hand and walked inside, and wouldn't let me touch the light switch.
I followed a few steps, and suddenly I felt that my mother's hand was strange, it didn't feel like a hand, it seemed to be a ...... Is it a piece of wood, or the kind that has been burned into charcoal!
When I thought about it, I immediately thought of the burned child, and I couldn't help but shudder.
"What's wrong?" Mom asked.
Mom's voice sounded a little stiff and cold, not at all like the way she used to speak to me.
"Mom, why are your hands so cold?" I became more and more scared, and before I finished speaking, I quickly pulled my hand out, I wanted to turn on the light, and I wanted to go to my father.
"Why are my hands cold?" Mom's voice was still cold, and she held my hand and didn't let go.
I was even more frightened and said, "Your hands also feel strange......"
"Strange?" Mom suddenly laughed, and the laughter was sharp and poignant, and she said, "What's so strange about that, people who are burned to death will have their hands like this!" ”
Hearing this, my scalp seemed to explode all at once, and I struggled desperately, crying and shouting, "You let go of me!" Let me go! You're not my mom! ”
"What are you doing letting go? You're going to turn on the lights? The cold voice said jokingly, "Want to turn on the light to see who I am?" Haven't you seen me many times? ”
As soon as he finished speaking, the room suddenly lit up, but instead of the electric light, a strange light appeared in the room.
All of a sudden, I saw the person who grabbed my hand, the child who died of ****!
The big head, round eyes, resentful eyes, weird smile, blackened face, and burnt body, burnt short hands, right in front of me!
The extreme terror broke my spirit at once, and the world swirled, and I fell silently.
