Since McQuay didn't have any special equipment to monitor the appearance of ghosts, we had to brace ourselves and keep our eyes open, hoping to stay up until midnight and see ghosts appear.

During this time, McQuay showed me his high-tech equipment, and the most impressive of them were a stun stick and a high-voltage flying needle.

The stun stick was like a delicate rubber rod, but according to McQuay, with the flip of a switch, the stun rod could instantly emit a high-voltage current that could instantly dispel ghosts within two meters.

Ghosts are nothing more than brain waves left over from the death of human beings, and attacking them with high-voltage electric current can be said to be the right medicine, and of course ghosts cannot bear it.

The other high-pressure flying needle seems to be a rugged men's watch, which can be worn on the wrist as a watch.

When it is critical, bend your wrist and touch the switch with your wrist bone, and dozens of special steel needles hidden in the watch will be launched one after another, and the firing distance can exceed five meters.

Moreover, the steel needle is made of a special material, it looks very small, but it is hollow inside, and there is an ultra-high concentration of anesthetic hidden in it, even if it is a large beast, even a few of them will fall to the ground.

That reminds me of a super powerful secret weapon in Jin Yong's martial arts, "Rainstorm Pear Flower".

I feel that this cylindrical "high-pressure flying needle" is the same as "rainstorm pear blossom".

It's just that the "Rainstorm Pear Flower" can't be used in water, but this high-pressure flying needle, because it is small and smooth, has relatively little resistance to water, so it can be used normally even in deep water.

I asked McQuay what he could do to lure it out if he hadn't waited a long time for the ghost to appear.

McQuay seemed to have already made up his mind, and immediately asked me, "Since you have been to the house of Onpota, have you noticed that there is a very hideous wooden statue in front of the bed of Onpota?" ”

"Yes!" I nodded and replied, "So you noticed the wooden statue too!" Unfortunately, I haven't had time to investigate which sect the wooden statue is, but I know it's certainly not a Buddhist statue! ”

"I don't know which sect's idol it is!" McKey answered, "I've been to a few shops that specialize in idols, and no one knows that idol!" And the reason why I paid special attention to the statue was not only because of its strange shape, but also because when I came to Ongpota's house that day to investigate, I just picked up the wooden statue with my hand and looked at it, and Ongpota almost threw himself out of bed and bit me to death! ”

I didn't expect McQuay to have the same experience as me, and since he mentioned the wooden statue, he must have had something to do with it.

In fact, I could roughly guess what he was trying to do, but I asked him, "What do you mean......?" ”

"I mean, we don't have to wait here all the time, until at eleven or twelve o'clock when all the people in the house have gone to sleep, I'll pry open the door of his house and go in and steal the wooden statue out! I always felt that if that black ghost really had something to do with the Ongpota family, if I stole this strange wooden statue, I could lure that ghost out against me! ”

I'll admit that McQuay had a good idea, because I also thought that if the ghost was as I suspected, it was the ghost of Ompota's old father, and that stealing the wooden statue might lead to it.

I even think that the ghost is probably related to the wooden statue.

I can't say why, but I have this intuition.

But I was quite uneasy, after all, knocking on the door in the middle of the night was the only thing a little thief would do.

But I have no better way but to keep my opinion,

After waiting in the car for more than an hour, I took advantage of this time to chat with Meng Xiang on WeChat for a while.

I didn't tell her that we were waiting for the ghost to appear in XX Village, that would have been very worrying.

All I told her was that I was with McQuay now, and that I would be investigating the ghost with McQuay.

When Meng Xiang heard that McCquay was actually an investigator from an international organization specializing in investigating "supernatural" phenomena, he naturally sent a few expressions of amazement.

But I believe that as a result, the heart she hangs for me will definitely be a lot more solid.

Waiting until nearly ten o'clock, the lights of XX Village were gradually extinguished, and the entire XX Village fell into darkness.

Only in one of the windows of the village head Weng Pota's house, there was a dim light shining through.

And that window is the room where Ongpota lives.

Presumably, Weng Pota was paralyzed, and there was no day or night for him, so his wife would help him light it up, so that when he opened his eyes at night, his eyes would not be full of darkness.

From this point of view, although his wife is full of resentment against him, she is actually not a ruthless, unrighteous and indifferent person.

McQuay and I pushed open the door and crept down to the lighted window of Umpota.

The windows were not glassed, but covered with a translucent plastic sheeting – just like the rural homes of our country in the seventies and eighties.

McQuay pulled out a sharp knife and made a scratch on the plastic sheeting.

A hole immediately appeared in the plastic sheeting.

McCquay leaned in to take a closer look, then turned back to me and whispered, "Ongpota has his eyes closed, he must have fallen asleep, you are here to control the wind, I will pry the door in and take out the wooden statue!" ”

I nodded and said, "Be careful!" ”

As I watched McCiver walk to the door of the room next to me, I felt like I was a thief.

I don't know what tools McQuay used, but he easily and without making a sound pry open the door. Then he beckoned to me, leaned in and closed the door again.

I then snapped into the hole McQuay had cut in the plastic sheeting and peeked into the room.

I saw Onpota lying on his back on the bed, still covered with a dirty old sheet.

His face was slightly tilted, and from my vantage point, I could see that his eyes were closed, as if he were indeed asleep.

And in the corner opposite his bed, the strangely carved wooden statue was still on a small stool as it was during the day.

There was also an oil lamp on the stool, which was dimly lit to keep the room from being completely dark.

It's a long story, but I can see it at a glance.

Immediately after the figure swayed, McQuay dodged into the room, glancing at the Ompota on the bed, then turned and reached for the wooden statue on the wooden bench in the corner.

Because his figure blocked the place of the wooden statue, I only saw him bend down, and I don't know if I touched the wooden statue, and suddenly I felt the light in the room flicker, followed by a faint squeaky sound from the mouth of Ompota.

I was startled and immediately turned to Ompota.

I saw that Onpota was still lying on his back on the bed, and he had not even changed his position on his back.

But his breathing became heavy, and his mouth did make an uncomfortable sound that resembled grinding of his teeth.

And at that same moment, there was a dark shadow, slowly emerging from the transparent air.

It felt like a close-up shot from a movie, at first it was just a transparent outline, but soon the outline was filled with translucent mist.

As the mist stuffed more and more, the silhouette turned into a black human figure.

There is a head, there are shoulders, there is a waist, and there are legs.

It's just that in that round head, there are no facial features in sight, and it is so black. It's as black as a black hole, and people chill when they see it.

And the location where it appears is also very strange.

It did not stand on the ground, nor did it sit at the head of the bed, but floated leisurely on the chest and abdomen of the Ongpo Tower, and the tips of its feet were just stepping on the chest of the Ongpo Tower.

If it was the first time I had seen such a strange sight, I would have screamed in horror.

Luckily, I've been through weirder things before, so I quickly shut my mouth to keep myself from screaming.

McQuay had already turned his face when he grinded his teeth at Onpota, so he saw the ghost as well.

And the ghost couldn't tell the difference between the front and the back, but I could feel that it was facing McQuay viciously.

McQuay must have felt it, too, and his reaction was really fast.

I think he knew very well that if he woke up his wife, who was resting in another room, he would first be charged with burglary.

As a foreigner, once he is convicted of such a crime, he may find it difficult to defend himself and will be deported immediately.

So his eyes were fixed on the ghost, but his feet moved quickly, and he quickly exited the room of Ompota, opened the door of the room and jumped out.

Because he was moving too fast, the door inevitably creaked.

Fortunately, the voice was not very loud, so as not to wake Ompota's wife immediately.

And I watched McVier jump out of the door, and I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and naturally I looked at the window again, and looked into the room.

But in such a moment, the black shadow was gone.

Onpota was still lying on his back in his hospital bed, and the lights in the room were still dim as a bean.

It was also at that moment that I felt a very strange feeling behind me, and I almost screamed when I suddenly turned around.

I didn't scream, not because I realized that my cry would alarm his wife to go out to check on this silent night, but because I was so numb with so fright that I couldn't make a sound when my mouth opened.
