Chapter 35: Cats
I grabbed the talisman with my hand, and the ghost in the room began to grow stronger, and then a dim figure appeared in the corner of the room.
Little by little, she became clearer, and she could see clearly even without opening her eyes.
"Why doesn't anyone care about us?" The sound of the Yin Measurement is like it appears directly in your head, not through your ears.
"Mother-in-law, calm down." Lu Xiaoling said in a low voice.
"Why doesn't anyone care about us?" The old lady kept saying this over and over again, and her face began to rot, and maggots began to wriggle between her blooming flesh.
"Mother-in-law......" Lu Xiaoling wanted to say something, but she didn't know how to say it.
Let the old man let go of hatred?
But she didn't even know who to blame.
"Rest in peace." She said one last slump, then nodded at me.
I began to recite the mantra, stepping towards her with my steps, and then gently pressed the talisman to her forehead.
The function of this talisman is to calm the out-of-control souls and then lead them to the six realms of reincarnation.
But to my surprise, my hand went straight through her image and didn't touch anything.
This? I lost my balance and pressed my face directly against her rotten and horrified face, which made me almost scream.
"What's going on?" Lu Xiaoling also noticed something wrong at this time, she took out another spell and threw it at the old man's soul, but it also passed through her image lightly and fell directly to the ground.
"Why doesn't anyone care about us?" The old lady was still saying that sentence repeatedly, and Lu Xiaoling touched her face back and forth a few times with her hand, as if she was stirring the water surface with her hand, and the image became fragmented where her hand stirred, but the rest of the place was not affected at all.
"It's not a ghost!" Lu Xiaoling said. "It's a fantasy!"
I immediately opened the door and knocked the door of 303, and Ma Bin came over and opened the door after a while.
"You ......" He held all the magic weapons in his hands, as if facing a great enemy. I rushed straight into the room and saw an old lady in the room, her head turned to me, and she began to babble.
Ma Bin followed and ran in.
"Does any of your stuff work for her?"
"Nope!" Ma Bin replied suspiciously.
"It's not a ghost." I said to him.
At that moment, a woman's scream came from the building next to her, followed by the cry of a child, and the image of the old lady began to blur and disappeared after a few seconds.
More and more lights came on, crying, sighing, talking, and in the middle of the night, so many sounds suddenly made the whole neighborhood noisy.
I ran down the stairs, Room 102 was as cold as it was during the day, but there was no sign of a ghost ever coming.
I took a closer look, and when I came out of the room, I saw some old people in the distance trembling and holding incense candles, and they screamed in surprise when they saw me coming out of the murderous house.
"I'm upstairs." I hurriedly explained. "What are you?"
"Come bye-bye, please stop scaring us." An old lady said with tears in her eyes.
"Where do you live?"
"The building across the street." The old lady from before replied.
While others come from different places, centered around this room, the panic seems to have spread to the rest of the community.
They did not dare to enter the door, but put the offerings and incense and candles at the door, and kept praying in their mouths.
I went upstairs.
"That's not right!" Lu Xiaoling said. "It's impossible for a newborn resentful spirit to have such a large amount of mana to appear in so many places at the same time, and her appearance is not right!"
"It's like someone recorded this and then took it to a different place and put it on." Ma Bin said that although the metaphor is not very appropriate, it is very intuitive.
"Something must be wrong!" Lu Xiaoling said.
She picked up her things and walked downstairs, I hurriedly locked the door and followed, Ma Bin hesitated, and also grabbed his things and chased after him.
"The cats are gone." Lu Xiaoling said. "Remember the cat meow before she showed up?"
We all nodded.
"It must have something to do with those cats! Let's split up and find out! Lu Xiaoling said.
She chose a random direction and left, I looked at Ma Bin and went to the road to her left.
The spread of the matter seemed to be limited to the area around the building, most of the houses were lit up, but the other houses were still dark, and I looked at it, and it was roughly centered on that building to form a circle, and about five buildings were involved.
I started looking along the perimeter for the feral cats that were everywhere during the day, but in the dark, it was almost impossible to do.
A small black shadow suddenly passed through the middle of the road and disappeared into the darkness, and I chased it with a flashlight, and found that it was a dilapidated bungalow.
"Mimi?" I cried cautiously, but there was no sound in the darkness.
Lu Xiaoling: Where did they go?
I looked back and looked around again.
It was hard to tell the distance or direction in the dark, I only knew that they should not be too far away from me, but I did not know where they were.
"Mimi?" I shouted again.
Suddenly two green lights lit up in the bushes not far away, and then they meowed.
"Good cat, come here." I had nothing to give it to eat, so I had to tease it with my hands, and it lay there looking at me all the time, and suddenly "bluffed" and showed its fangs.
"I have no malicious ......" I was startled by it, and at this time, suddenly a few more cat meows sounded around me, and then more and more green points of light appeared around me.
Next Olympics!
I immediately stopped, and the light of the flashlight passed, and there were wild cats everywhere, large and small, all of them bent down in unison, making a gesture that was ready to pounce at any moment.
The sound of "bluff~bluff~" came and went, and I wanted to exit this place, but I found that the road behind me was also occupied by wild cats, and in the darkness, countless green light points were slowly approaching me, and I actually had a feeling of great disaster.
"I don't mean anything ......," I carefully took off my backpack and held it in my hand. Lethal or not, at least for a while to protect me from these damn things.
It is said that cats are the most agile and ferocious of all felines if they have the same size, I don't know if that's true, but I think I'll be able to verify it for myself right away.
The phone rang suddenly, and the cheerful ringing was particularly abrupt in such a scene, and I grabbed my backpack with my right hand and carefully picked up the phone with my left hand.
"Sun Yang? Where did you run! Lu Xiaoling shouted on the phone.
"Shh~" I stared closely at the black cat closest to me, which was almost the size of a small dog.
"What are you doing?" Lu Xiaoling asked.
"I found them...... Bungalow ...... on the west side"
It lunged at me, I dropped the phone and grabbed my backpack with both hands and smashed it out, only to be followed by a hot sting and numerous bumps on the back of my neck.
