Chapter 21: Differences

"Why is it hard to say? Is it because the object of the curse is a building? โ€

"This is one of them, and the other is that you say that it is a curse, but it is not complete, I think it is higher than a curse, and has more, more terrifying power."

Mom, my heart chilled when I heard it, "Why?" โ€

Master He leaned forward and said very seriously: "Because it is changing, its strength is increasing little by little. โ€

The three of us looked at each other and felt like we had heard the scariest ghost story in the world.

Zhou Xiongbing was the first to react, "You are taking this kindergarten as an example, at the beginning, there was one more person in each class, and first children, then adults, and finally the number became one less, and that thing can also change into a human appearance, it is getting stronger little by little, until..."

The director continued Zhou Xiongbing's words, "Until you can kill people." โ€

Master He nodded, "It's not even more terrifying, it's scary that this thing can think." โ€

can think, I really don't understand this, and even Zhou Xiongbing is confused.

Master He said in a deep voice, "Do you know what the difference between ghost killing and curse killing is? โ€

Zhou Xiongbing stroked his chin with his right hand and entered a state of thinking, and the director also held his glasses and fell into deep thought.

I wondered in my mind, ghosts and curses? Ghosts and curses? I picked up the state I was lying on the table analyzing the meaning of the words on the note.

Ghosts, curses, literally, both are ranking, but curses can also be used as verbs, such as I curse you, it can be an action.

And if you look at both as nouns, they are both more abstract terms, but curses are more abstract than ghosts.

Many novels and movies have described the general image of ghosts, although they are all imaginary, but at least it is imaginable, not that the curse cannot be imagined, but it is difficult to express it with a specific image.

If I were to draw a ghost on a blank piece of paper, I would probably look like a woman in white with her hair scattered, but if I had to draw a curse, I wouldn't be able to do it at all.

By the way, Master He is not asking us about the difference between ghosts and curses, but the difference between killing people with ghosts and killing people with curses.

Let's consider ghosts first, how do ghosts kill people? I still have to start with novels and movies (no way, I haven't seen it either), think about the famous Sadako-sensei and Gaco-ko-sensei, they are both murderous.

Crawl out of the well, lie down from the attic, well, this, to be specific, ghosts can scare people to death, I remember that there are some ghosts that can make people hallucinate, such as your good friend suddenly knocking on your window to let you go out to play, but your family lives on the eighteenth floor.

There are also powerful ghosts with strong energy that can possess themselves and use people to kill people, and there seem to be some more fierce ghosts that can directly change items in the real world and kill people directly, nothing more than that.

Then let's think about the curse (I'm more familiar with this, after all, I've experienced it now),

Curses or something are even more varied, first throw it on me (although I know that the curse is not for me, but for the whole school, but after all, I carry it now) and this kindergarten, Master He also said that we are a little special, I will not consider it for the time being.

In addition to the eight-bone curse that Master He just said, there is also a villain, I know much less about the curse than the ghost.

But fortunately, Master He has just explained to us an example of a curse with a vivid and terrifying example, but it is real, and the ghost of me is summarized through movie novels, so I can analyze it in detail.

First of all, the curse needs a medium, such as eight bones, and, it seems that there are no more...

At this time, Zhou Xiongbing said: "Is it different to use the object, curses are generally used by humans, and ghosts kill people, they are all ghosts kill people directly..."

Master He nodded slightly, "It's the difference between the two, but that's not what I want to ask, it's best for you to think about it, and I'll tell you." โ€

Is it to make us more aware of its horror? I said to myself.

Spit and complain, you still have to think about it, let me think about it just now, curses need a medium, but ghosts don't need it, so they just started it themselves, which seems to be the same meaning as Zhou Xiongbing.

But when I think about it, no, it doesn't seem that some ghosts who are not capable enough can kill people directly, they also need a medium, such as possession or something, which is not also a kind of medium.

Speaking of which, the scene where the principal said that she was in a meeting with the person who pretended to be Cao Yuan was more like a ghost than a curse.

Well?! I seemed to know, and in an instant, my brain seemed to be opened up to the second pulse of Ren Du, and I continued to think unhindered.

Isn't this the difference between ghosts and cursed killing, when ghosts kill people, they are generally accompanied by a supernatural state, and after the incident happens, it will be found that it is impossible to explain it with science.

But the curses are different, such as the Guo family's eight-bone curse, although it is a bit weird that children and grandchildren die one after another, but no matter which son or grandson, their death makes sense, even if it is the child who was choked to death by milk, which is quite a lot in real life (I hope all babies in the world can grow up healthily).

However, in the curse of the kindergarten, there is an element of ghosts, in fact, there is such an element from the beginning, suddenly there is one more person in the class, but no matter how you look for it, you can't find it, which is not clear that it is the beginning of the ghost story.

At that time, everyone was brainwashed by the legend of Zashiki Boy, and sure enough, people only want to believe what they want to believe.

Actually, didn't I think that the note was passed to me by a ghost at first, and this is also the object of use as Zhou Xiongbing said just now, this is not a curse routine at all.

Thinking of this, I couldn't hold back a little, I really wanted to know if my guess was right, and I said my thoughts in one go.

โ€œยทยทยท That is to say, when the curse occurs, the person concerned is not aware of it at all, and it is only known after the fact, because the curse does not appear like a ghost, and the curse is not so vivid, like my note, and the Cao Yuan that the director saw was not Cao Yuan. โ€

Pap, papa, pap, Master He smiled and applauded.
