Chapter 78: The Ghost Is Here to Ask for Directions
"What?"
The hostess's face changed suddenly, and her expression of horror became more intense.
"Uh...... It's all right, he'...... Likes to joke. Plus my sister, hehe, has a nickname...... It's called a ghost girl! ”
Lin Yulan made up reasons like this, and the hostess finally let go of her hanging heart a little after pondering for a while. After that, he continued to tell them about the ghost.
Time recalls a summer night three years ago......
"I was working in a supermarket and my daughter was in kindergarten. I leave work after 8:30 every night and pick up my kids. It happened that it was my mother-in-law's birthday, so we didn't go back to this yard first, but went directly to my mother-in-law's house on East Street. When siblings get together, it is inevitable that they will talk for a longer time. When I got back to this courtyard, it was almost twelve o'clock. After a hurried wash, I went to sleep, and my child and I slept very deeply that night. But a few hours later...... Suddenly I was awakened by a knock on the door...... It's about this time......"
At this point, the hostess glanced at the European-style floor-to-ceiling clock standing in the corner. Lin Yulan also glanced at the time on the screen of her mobile phone vigilantly, three o'clock in the morning.
"You're going to open the door?"
Lin Yulan asked.
The hostess nodded and continued: "I was shocked into a cold sweat at the time......"
She had completely entered the memory of that day, as if everything was right in front of her......
She grabbed a mop from behind the door, clutched her chest and gasped for a few breaths before daring to run to the door. She stood on the inside of the door, her face pressed against the panel, trying to peek through the tiny gap. However, the vaguely seen figure calmed her beating heart. The shadow was familiar, very much like her husband, but she didn't see the face clearly. Without hesitation, she put down the mop in her hand and opened the door. Who knows, the moment she opened the door, the woman almost fainted in fright.
"A round roasted cake face, so white that there is no trace of blood. The eyes are like two ripe jujubes, and they are still shining red. In particular, the wild cat, which opened its mouth as red as if it had just eaten a mouse, opened its grins to reveal two sharp teeth like dogs...... He's not my husband. ”
When the woman said this, her face was a little more frightened, and her body seemed to tremble unconsciously.
"Hehe, eldest sister, you can't be sleepwalking, right?"
Takasugi suddenly interjected.
The woman added a little anger from fear and said, "Will a dream last for three years?" Besides, he himself admitted it. ”
"How?"
Lin Yulan asked.
"I'm going to participate in the Great Resurrection of Ten Thousand Ghosts, how far is this place from Wanyou Mountain? Tell me, tell me ......"
The woman remembered what the demon had said.
"Do you say that every time you come?"
Lin Yulan asked, but guessed in her heart: Maybe the ghost has an unfulfilled wish, he is here to ask for directions, and he has no intention of hurting this woman. But when she heard the words "Ten Thousand Ghosts Resurrect the Soul" again, Lin Yulan inevitably became a little more vigilant.
The woman nodded and said, "I don't know, because I haven't opened the door to him since." Perhaps, if the door had been opened, he would have said that. ”
"Eldest sister, you are really bold enough, you still dare to live here after three years?"
Takasugi couldn't help but ask again.
The woman sighed and said, "What can I do?" If you can't afford to buy a house, how can you move out? Sometimes, though, I find someone to keep me company, and he ...... Doesn't come often. ”
When the woman said this, her eyes seemed to dodge, as if there was some information that she didn't want Lin Yulan to know. The female ghost, who had been silent for a long time, seemed to see a hint of falsehood in the woman's eyes. Seriously, the female ghost's mind-reading technique is just a "half-hanger", sometimes it doesn't work, sometimes it doesn't. Therefore, when facing a person with a more complex experience, you really can't see through it at once.
"Oh."
Lin Yulan nodded.
"Tuk Tuk ......"
Lin Yulan and the others were in the living room to inquire about what happened, when suddenly, there was a knock on the door.
The woman was so frightened that she shook her body a few times, almost fell, and her lips trembled and she continued: "Yes...... It's a ghost! ”
"Sister, don't be afraid! Let's go out and have a look. ”
Lin Yulan comforted the woman, but Takasugi was clever once, got up and helped the woman to the sofa and sat down. Then, Lin Yulan and the others rushed out of the living room and went straight to the door.
The knock on the door continued rhythmically......
