Chapter 2: Grievances
He couldn't have imagined that he had been upright all his life, but the person next to him had killed an innocent person for his own selfish desires!
"But my son has no one to accompany him! That girl...... She has no father and no mother...... After marrying your son, you don't have to be a lonely ghost! "
She took it for granted, and even had the idea of "cheapening the other party", to this day, she still doesn't think how selfish and outrageous her behavior is, and still thinks about a person who has been dead for ten years in a daze!
I chose that girl just because she has no father or mother, and she has no way to complain!
Ah Li looked at this "selfless" mother coldly, and her heart was cold to the extreme.
But things have to go on.
"Tomorrow at noon, bring some men and go and bring the corpse back." With a few words, Ah Li turned around and left, no longer looking at the village chief who was ten years old in an instant, and he didn't want to see the selfish face of the woman on the ground again.
Noon on the second day.
The sky was still gray, the air was a little humid, the wind was not strong, but it was biting tight. Ah Li followed the village chief and eight or nine big men to the river in the village. On the way, Lao Yang cautiously looked left and right, quietly walked to Ah Li's side, lowered his voice and asked, "Are we going over empty-handed?" Don't need to prepare incense candles or something? "
"Poof!" Ah Li was amused by his words, this old Yang is a little cute.
"Don't bother with this, just fish up the corpse."
"Oh oh......" Lao Yang looked at Ah Li in surprise, thinking that this little girl was really different from other gentlemen, and she found the body in just one night, which was much more reliable than those Taoist priests who sang babbling in the yard and were scared to the point of urine.
Thinking about it, we had reached the river, and there was nothing but the ripples of the wind, the withered grass by the river, and one or two bare trees, and there was no one. Ah Li looked at the village chief's daughter-in-law, who had been hiding from afar since she went out, and slowly walked behind her: "But I didn't go over and point to the place where you dumped the body, how to get it?" The words were very light, but the village chief's daughter-in-law trembled fiercely, and her face turned pale.
Unceremonious words, but the village chief just blushed and didn't say a word, making several big men look at each other, not understanding what was happening. I saw her tremble for a moment, trembling and moving over, pointing to a place full of water and grass: "That's it, that's it." After saying that, she lowered her head and stopped looking at the water, as if something was looking at her underwater.
After all, the heart is empty.
"Let's fish." The village chief gave an order, and several people took off their shirts and entered the water from that place, and the icy river water made them shiver a few times, and goosebumps rose, but they gritted their teeth and took a deep breath to continue to sink.
After looking underwater for a while, he surfaced to breathe and continued to look for it, and the waves kept lapping the wet mud on the shore, making bursts of sound. After repeating this for nearly an hour, five people finally dragged the corpse of a woman dressed in red ashore.
"Ouch mom, how can a little girl be so ......"
The corpse had long been soaked and deformed in the water, but it was still possible to distinguish the facial features, and the hands and feet were tied in reverse to a rough hemp rope, presumably to sink her to the bottom forever, and a large stone was tied behind the rope.
What a ridiculous and brutal murder.
But that stone was not the main reason for the sinking of the body. Ah Li walked to the corpse and squatted down, Lao Yang on the side was still worried that her little girl would be scared when she saw the corpse, but she saw Ah Li squatting there without changing her face and looking at it carefully, swallowing the words of comfort in her mouth, and sighed again that this little girl was not ordinary.
It's only been one night, why has the resentment accumulated so much? Ah Li was puzzled, but her face was silent: "Carry it back."
At night, the village chief set up a mourning hall at home according to Ah Li's words, and hung white silk everywhere in the house like an ordinary funeral, while the female corpse was placed in the courtyard with a white cloth, and incense sticks were lit all the way from the courtyard gate to the place where the corpse was placed, leading the way for the female ghost.
Ali walked around the female corpse, placing runes in each of the eight directions of the corpse, strung with a red thread, and the other end of the red thread was attached to her own wrist.
This is a way to communicate with ghosts, only in this way can you communicate with ghosts normally, understand each other's wishes, and find a way to resolve her grievances, and the Bafang rune paper is also a formation that can trap ghosts, which is also to prevent ghosts from being too heavy and hurting psychics.
Ah Li cut off a piece of the hair of the village chief's daughter-in-law and put it on the forehead of the corpse, so as to introduce the female ghost into the formation, and the village chief's daughter-in-law was hidden by her breath with talisman paper and stayed in the room on the second floor with the village chief.
Everything is ready, only the "east wind" is owed.
Time passed little by little, and a moment had passed since zero o'clock, and there was still no movement on the red line. But Ah Li was not in a hurry at all, just sat next to him and looked at the corpse under the white cloth intently. The rope had been removed, but it looked a little twisted and weird because of the length of time it had been tied.
When it was quiet, a strange cold wind suddenly hit, the incense stick that led the way suddenly accelerated the burning speed, the sparks that were clearly extinguished, the thick fishy smell of the river that was getting closer and closer, and the horror that slowly crawled all over the back little by little, all reminded Ah Li: she is coming!
The red thread on her wrist was slowly tightened by a force, and in Ah Li's eyes, the surrounding environment gradually began to change, the courtyard and the small bungalow were swallowed up by endless darkness, and the corpse in front of her was gone, as if she was the only one left in an instant.
"I don't want to let her go." Suddenly there were words floating above her head, but Ah Li turned her head empty.
"What do you say?" The voice came from the left hand side again, and Ah Li looked over, and a figure stood there, still wearing a bright red wedding dress, but it was no longer the eerie and infiltrating appearance.
The little girl in front of her was about seventeen years old, her black hair was like a waterfall draining her back, her thin body looked lonely, and a pair of watery eyes looked at her, wronged and unwilling.
"Why should I accept such an unfair arrangement, and why should I bear the price for her selfishness?"
She has been alone for many years without a father or mother, but she has never complained! No matter how difficult and humble her life is, she has never lost hope! But that nightmare came without warning, without any reason...... That night, the wind was particularly strong, but the usually kind person had a gloomy face, and ended her short life with a terrible wedding and a pair of hands that cut off her breath!
"Why me...... Why ......" she slowly crouched down and hugged herself tightly with her arms. She didn't even have time to cry when she suffered this fate, but now she finally has the opportunity to tell all her unwillingness and grievances, and she can finally shed tears.
Ah Li looked at this little girl who couldn't help herself crying, she was the same age, but she was destined to be short. walked to her side, but she was shocked to retreat, and her whole body suddenly appeared! The tear stains in his eyes suddenly turned blood-red, and dark veins surfaced under his skin, faintly as if he was about to change back to that resentful appearance. A pair of hands suddenly pinched Ah Li's neck: "Does it hurt?" That's how she killed me! "She's still so hateful!
Ah Li endured the sharp pain on her neck that was about to tear, and slammed the rune paper in her hand to her forehead, forcing her to get rid of her resentment and making her howl in pain, and suddenly threw Ah Li out, and the severe pain that could not be entangled all over her body was like being burned in a fire, and she kept rolling and rolling, instinctively wanting to escape, but soft words sounded in her ears.
"The fate of all people in this world has their own arrangements, she harmed you, and one day there will be retribution. But if you kill her, you will be in a situation from which you will never recover, for the sake of a selfish person, not worth it. ”
"You've cherished and loved the world, and that's enough. The wicked have their own harvest, and you shouldn't pay a greater price for her. ”
The resentment gradually dissipated, and the little girl looked at her blankly, isn't it worth it?
"You deserve better." Looking down where she was pointing, was that sunshine?
Involuntarily took a step.
It's really cold down there...... She wanted to be warm......
"Ahem, ahem." It's finally over. Ah Li stroked her severely painful neck and coughed twice, looked at the hazy night, and slowly got up and walked to the second floor.
"Ahh The sound of the door pushing startled both of them inside, and the woman even screamed. Ah Li ignored her, but looked at the village chief who hurriedly walked over: "She's gone." Find a good day to restrain people and bury them. ”
"Oh oh good. Girl, what are you ...... about" Hearing that it was over, the village chief let out a long breath, but was startled when he saw the bruise on Ah Li's neck.
"It's fine." After speaking, he looked at the stunned woman on the bed, and the village chief also looked over, sighed heavily, and his eyebrows were full of thick exhaustion: "Tomorrow, I will send her to the police station...... "It was a painful decision to send his wife to prison with his own hands, but he was uneasy to face a murderer day and night.
Ali turned away without saying a word, ignoring the woman's hysterical pleading.
For the rest of her life, she will live in prison.
************
Ah Li did not leave, but came to the river again in the dead of night.
The last time she retrieved the corpse, she noticed that something was wrong: the reason why the corpse was too heavy was not because of the stones that were tied to it, but because of the heavy resentment that had gathered in her! The resentment is heavy, so the corpse is also heavy. But Ah Li observed for a long time that night, and the resentment on the corpse was not alone, and no matter how much hatred she had, it was impossible to accumulate so much in one night.
In other words, there must be something under this water that attached resentment to the female corpse and gave birth to the resentment of the corpse!
Ali took out three pieces of rune paper, recited a few spells, and threw them into the water. Let's show her what's underneath the water!
The rune paper swirled around on the surface of the water, and after a few seconds sank into the water. However, Ah Li waited on the shore for a long time but did not see any movement, frowned and walked to the water's edge, looking at her own reflection in the water.
The talisman paper she threw was to find out if there were any water ghosts or something underwater, and if there were, there would have been some movement underwater, but now there was nothing!
What's underneath the water......
