Chapter 48: Black Symbols
I ran over and patted Boss Chen's face, "Hey, big money, where is the electric switch?" ”
Boss Chen was already unconscious with foaming at the mouth and rolling his eyes, and his crotch was wet as if he was scared into incontinence!
Xie Hong smiled embarrassedly and said, "Master He, am I so terrible?" ”
I glanced at Xie Hong, and couldn't help but say, "No, you're ridiculous." ”
After speaking, I ran up the stairs, Xie Hong naturally didn't dare to stay in the basement, and a smoke floated up and asked unhappily: "Master He, how can I be ridiculous?" ”
"Why are you two here?" An old lady asked with a grim face and bloodshot eyes staring at me.
I think it's a little weird, I didn't find an old man in the house just now, and I guessed that it might be Boss Chen's mother, so I politely said: "I'm here to catch ghosts, where is the main electric switch in the house?" ”
"Oh, there." The old lady turned and pointed, like a puppet, and then trembled down the stairs down the basement.
"Old lady, it's dark down there." I reminded me and ran to the corner of the stairs and pushed the switch.
Xie Hong said softly: "Master He, that person just now was not the slightest bit angry, didn't you find out?" ”
I said, "I found it, it seems that this basement is not simple, you will pay attention to it for me in a moment." ”
Xie Hong nodded again and again: "Don't worry, Master He, if there is danger in a while, I will be the first to run to the bracelet, you see the signal and prepare for it." ”
I rolled my eyes and asked, "That's how you signaled me?" ”
Xie Hongcan smiled: "Master He, go down quickly, the cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods will run out in a while." ”
At this moment, Boss Chen ran up from the basement in a panic, and only rolled his eyes when he saw Xie Hong's scream. This time, I came in time and hurriedly stepped forward to pinch Boss Chen's acupoint.
Boss Chen was still strong and didn't faint, but he was still jealous of Xie Hong and hid from the distance before asking, "Master He, she?" ”
I laughed and said, "It's okay, she won't hurt you." ”
"That's good, that's good." Boss Chen glanced at Xie Hong and then asked, "Master He caught the ghost?" ”
"No, it's tripped, this didn't just come up and push the brake." As I spoke, I pointed to the gate box that had not yet come to the emergency close.
Boss Chen wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said, "That master, hurry up, I won't go down this time." ”
I nodded in agreement and asked, "Who else is in your house?" Is there an old lady or something? ”
Boss Chen said that his family and nanny had gone out to live, so there was no one living in the house except him these days.
Xie Hong ran behind Boss Chen unconsciously, "Then what happened to the old lady who went down just now?" ”
Boss Chen snorted again, and withdrew from the distance: "Master He, she?" ”
I asked Xie Hong not to make trouble, and then asked the same question as Xie Hong.
Boss Chen's heart calmed down, and said with a little sadness: "Don't hide it from Master He, my mother died in the basement." ”
I asked if it was a normal death or if it was for a reason. Boss Chen thought for a while and said:
He said that since the family built this new house, Boss Chen's mother has become stupid and stupid, and she talks nonsense all day long, saying that she is a forbidden woman in an ancient women's prison.
The basement is where she goes to work, so she goes to the basement every time she finishes eating, sometimes running to the basement during the day and sometimes at night.
Boss Chen felt strange and asked her mother why she was like this? Boss Chen's mother replied that she would be transferred to another job normally.
Boss Chen wanted to laugh a little, thinking that it might be that his mother was old and happened to be hit by the death of his daughter-in-law and grandson, so he showed signs of mental abnormality.
But no matter how many psychiatrists were found, the doctors said that the old lady was mentally fine, maybe she was too lonely, and asked Boss Chen to be by his side and do his filial piety and accompany the old man.
Boss Chen also knows that this is the case, but he is too busy with work to be at home every day, right? Just when Boss Chen went out to handle business, the old lady died in the basement!
Saying that, Boss Chen wiped his tears again and said, "The old lady had a peaceful face when she died, so it should be regarded as a good death." ”
With that in mind, I came to the basement, which was as large as this small three-story building, with many load-bearing columns standing in the empty basement.
The light of the incandescent lamp was limited, and it was difficult to see anything behind the load-bearing columns, except for a pitch-black Taishi chair leaning against one of the load-bearing columns. I guess that's where the old lady of the Chen family often sits.
Xie Hong looked around and said, "I don't know where the old lady went just now." ”
I didn't answer, but pondered how a cheerful old lady suddenly became dark and hid in the basement. Could it really be because the death of her daughter-in-law and grandson stimulated her?
But how can she explain that she claims to be a forbidden woman? Could it be that Boss Chen's mother was the head of the prison in ancient times? But after thinking about it, I still don't feel right.
Because Boss Chen's age is obviously a doll after liberation in 1949, his mother is at most a child in the old society even if she gets married in 20, how can a young girl work in a prison in the old society?
Besides, the Chen family was a famous and noble family in the old society, and in line with the principle of being the right person, Boss Chen's mother must have been a daughter in the old society.
Thinking about it like this, I feel that the suspicion that she herself is a forbidden woman has been completely dispelled, but I think that it is more likely that the former forbidden woman has returned to the old lady of the Chen family.
It's just that the old lady of the Chen family has never been far away, why was she resurrected after moving once? Could it be that the old site of the Chen family's new house was itself a prison in ancient times? And it's also a women's prison in the Extreme Yin Land?
"Master He, you see there are talismans here."
Xie Hong called out to me from a corner in a dimly lit corner, and the sight of her feet dangling in the air really startled me. However, in the past few days, she has been staying in the Soul Bead, and she has obviously felt that the ghost body is becoming more and more obvious, and I guess it won't be long before she can really help me with the basket.
But thinking of her timid nature, I dispelled this idea again, and I couldn't help but sigh that I was a hard worker! He pouted and said, "Here we are." ”
I walked in and saw a black talisman pasted on the wall, but the lower part had been burned, and I couldn't tell what it was for, but the black rune paper was generally a talisman that gathered evil, and it was very unreasonable to stick it at home.
At this time, Xie Hong said: "There are still a lot of them on this land. ”
When I saw it, there were all kinds of half-burned black talismans scattered on the ground, so I thought that this talisman was pasted by the old lady of the Chen family, and the technique of reading and drawing talismans was not very skilled, so I guessed that these burned talismans were spontaneously combusted because of insufficient spiritual power.
