Chapter 13: Soul Grass
There was a handful of withered grass on the bedside table, the leaves had completely devoid of moisture, and the white stars in the shape of rice grains could be faintly visible, probably the flowers it once was. No matter how delicate it once was, it is now just a handful of hay that can be used as firewood.
Lin Yulan thought of the previous dream, the female ghost who had been doing narration, and the last message revealed was that "Soul Grass" could it be this dog's tail grass-like thing?
"That's right! That's it! Soul Grass! ”
Mu Keer suddenly sat up from the bed and pointed to the dry grass on the bedside table. Lin Yulan looked at her blankly, thinking: When did Mu Keer learn to read minds? She actually knew the doubts in my heart, and she actually knew the name of Soul Grass. If Lin Yulan went to a certain place in this accessible world, it would not be surprising that Mu Keer followed her curiously and quietly and overheard some information. But...... That was Lin Yulan's dream! How could she, Mu Ke'er, know?
"Unless ......"
Lin Yulan had a bold guess in her heart.
"I had such a strange dream!"
Without waiting for Lin Yulan to ask, Mu Ke'er said in surprise. Lin Yulan had already confirmed that guess, it turned out that they really had the same dream.
"The tragedy of the unfinished building? Female ghosts? ”
Lin Yulan looked at Mu Ke'er and asked.
Mu Ke'er nodded solemnly, her eyes flashed with a hint of surprise again, and she was sure that Lin Yulan was the same as the scene she dreamed of. I remember a brain teaser that asked, "What can you do, I can do, but you and I can't do both?" ”
However, the answer to this question was denied by the two girls, who had the same dream at the same time. Obviously, it's not a physical problem, it's not mental. It's artificial, someone deliberately set up a bureau. Dreaming is so real and synchronous.
"Soul Grass, does it really work?"
Mu Ke'er turned his gaze to the handful of dead grass.
"You'll have to try it to find out."
Lin Yulan said, rummaging through the drawers of each cabinet in the room, and finally found half of the red candle. Seeing that the sky was already shining outside the window, the fear in my heart naturally weakened a lot, not to mention that the girl in the dream was also very good-looking. She hurried to the kitchen, but luckily the gas stove could still be lit.
Lighting the candle, Lin Yulan returned to the bedroom.
"What are you going to do? Ignition of self-immolation? I...... I don't want to die with you! Mu Ke'er quickly turned over and stood beside the bed, glaring at Lin Yulan and asked. Lin Yulan ignored her, but put the handful of dead grass on the floor and lit it with the flame of the red candle.
"Lin Yulan, are you crazy? That's a baby fairy grass that can see ghosts! You just burned it? ”
Mu Ke'er looked at Lin Yulan very puzzled and asked.
"How can I drink it if I don't burn it?"
Lin Yulan looked at the ashes on the ground and said lightly.
"That's not meant to ...... To put it in underwear...... Warm? ”
"Ahh Who told you that? ”
Lin Yulan forced a smile on the corner of her mouth and looked at Mu Ke'er.
"That female ghost!"
Mu Keer replied confidently.
"Hahahaha...... It turns out that the versions of our dreams are still different. Will there be a version that says 'drinking it can cure infertility'? Ha ha...... However, since I'm already burning, let's try what I heard first. ”
Lin Yulan couldn't help laughing, let's believe what she heard. She picked up the ashes from the ground with her hands, and retrieved the water cup she had brought with her suitcase, which she actually took and soaked in water with the ashes of the primrose. He closed his eyes and took a big sip of it himself, and then handed it to Mu Ke'er.
"Take it, take it, I won't drink it! You're not doing it right! ”
Mu Ke'er was a little unconvinced, and subconsciously pushed the cup, but she didn't expect a "pop" sound, and Lin Yulan's water cup fell to the ground.
"It's a pity, it's a pity! This is a treasure that is difficult to find! It takes the tears of tens of thousands of unjust souls to be refined after 500 years. If you don't drink it, why spill it? ”
A delicate and sweet female voice came, and Lin Yulan and Mu Ke'er raised their heads at the same time. What Lin Yulan saw was the woman in the purple dress in her dream standing slim in front of her, while Mu Ke'er only saw the opposite wall. The soul saw that it really worked, and Lin Yulan actually saw the ghost in broad daylight.
"You...... Sure enough......"
"Yes, I'm Qi Shuangling. Don't be afraid, I have no ill will. A person has been wandering in the world for too long, and there are a lot of grievances in my heart, so I just want to talk to someone. ”
The female ghost Qi Shuangling explained to Lin Yulan, Lin Yulan looked at the girl in front of her carefully and believed her words. In fact, the moment she decided to drink the Soul Grass, she already believed it.
"Sit down, sit down and talk."
Lin Yulan pointed to the only sofa in the bedroom and motioned for the female ghost Qi Shuangling to sit down.
"Hehe, don't be polite to me. Over here...... I'm more familiar than you, I've lived in this room for five years. You see, those cosmetics are the ones I use all the time, and the clothes in the closet are mine. ”
The female ghost Qi Shuangling said, and sat on the sofa flutteringly.
"Ahh It turns out that the cosmetics are for a female ghost! Always in use, no wonder the dates are all new. ”
Mu Ke'er, who couldn't see the female ghost, couldn't help but say with emotion. She suddenly remembered the cosmetics she saw when she first walked into this room, and she was arguing with Lin Yulan about the morning and evening of the production date. Now that I think about it, the female ghost must have been present at that time, and the production date of the cosmetics must have been "ghost magic and witchcraft".
"Tell me, how many more stories do you have?"
Lin Yulan sat back on the side of the bed, looked at the female ghost and asked.
"Wait, wait. Tell me first, is there any other way for me to see ghosts? And also...... Why did you tell me that the soul grass is kept warm in underwear? ”
Mu Ke'er suddenly interjected, asking in the direction of the couch, even though she couldn't see the female ghost.
"Hehe, no. That last sentence wasn't for you, it was another ghost. ”
The female ghost explained like this, and Lin Yulan and Mu Ke'er were planted in the clouds again.
