Chapter Twenty-Eight: Arranged
Zhang Rongze himself could feel that his legs were trembling with every step.
But at the thought of his unconscious son burning on the sickbed, the man still endured the fear in his heart and walked near the low wall where the incident occurred.
Although the roads in the countryside are lit, they are not on the side of the road, but against a forest, and there are no lights nearby. A cold wind blew against his neck, and in the distance, I don't know whose dog barked a few times, and after it quieted down, Zhang Rongze only felt that his scalp was numb.
The pitch-black forest not far away was like a black hole with no end in sight, and while he called his son's name, he couldn't help but glance in that direction. He was afraid that something would suddenly come out of there......
"Zhang Hua, go home!"
"Zhang Hua, go home!"
Zhang Rongze tirelessly shouted his son's name, and walked around the wall three times with fear, which was repeatedly told by Aunt He.
The leaves in the bamboo forest made a rustling sound, and he could faintly hear a sound similar to "whining" in the wind. Zhang Rongze got goosebumps, trembled and wrapped the raw egg in the child's clothes, and carefully held it and walked to the path.
Dai Shikai saw that the other party was walking back from the low wall, and immediately took out the lighter in his arms and lit the narrow white candle in the lantern.
This is the soul-attracting lamp that illuminates Zhang Hua's soul home, and he must be responsible for keeping an eye on this lantern along the way, otherwise the candle flame will be extinguished, and the soul will also lose its way. He Gu even privately warned him that once the candle flame turned blue, there was no need to scruple about the previous rules, and there was only one thing he had to do: bring Zhang Rongze back immediately.
It was already 11 o'clock in the evening, and the farmers had already rested. On the way home, there was silence all around, and Zhang Rongze could only hear his own footsteps.
He Gu explained that in order to prevent the child's soul from being frightened and unwilling to come back with him, Dai Shikai had to keep a long distance from Zhang Rongze. At this time, he could only see a bright point of light in the dark night ahead, which was emitted by the lantern in Dai Shikai's hand. But even so, his presence still reassured Zhang Rongze.
I don't know if the soul shouting just now was successful, and whether Huazi's soul followed up......
Zhang Rongze's brain was blank, and cold sweat was pouring behind him. Because he had to rush home before twelve o'clock, but he was afraid that he would walk too fast and accidentally bump into it, Zhang Rongze walked nervously and tangled, and he had never felt so tormented.
As he passed under the street lamp, Zhang Rongze inadvertently caught a glimpse of his feet.
His brain stopped spinning at this moment, and even his breathing began to become rapid.
Through the light, Zhang Rongze saw a narrow shadow behind his feet.
He was no stranger to this figure, with its slender arms and calves, its hairy head, and its height......
Zhang Rongze can be sure that there is no one else on this road except himself and Dai Shikai.
So now this little shadow behind me...... It's his own son!
Zhang Hua was very sick and weak, and had been asleep in bed for a day, obviously it was impossible to be here. Therefore, he can be sure that the one behind him should be the wisp of soul that his son lost!
Zhang Rongze was overjoyed, it seems that He Gu's method is really effective. Although I really want to go back and check the ...... behind me Ghost, whether it was his own son or not, but remembering that this was a big taboo, he still took a deep breath and quickened his pace to move forward.
As he walked, he watched the shadows at his feet. Obviously, the son behind him also took a step forward and walked behind him unhurriedly.
Maybe it's because of the child, the speed of that wisp of soul is not fast. As soon as Zhang Rongze sped up, it was easy to distance himself from it.
Afraid that the child would be lost, Zhang Rongze had to slow down his pace and try to let it follow behind his back.
Dai Shikai couldn't hear the movement behind him, after all, they were too far away. But he didn't need to care about this, his job at the moment was to lead the way, which was to keep an eye on the changes in the candle flame in his hand. The orange flame flickered slightly, and as long as it could continue to be in this state, the conjuring would be successful.
"Space bless, don't give me any moths at this time......" Dai Shikai prayed secretly in his heart.
However, his prayers were not answered by the space, and perhaps Dominic would have been much more effective than him. Because in the next step, the space immediately proved with its strength that what it means to arrange you clearly.
There is still about half the way home, Zhang Rongze calculated in his heart, there are about 20 minutes left, and he can go back safely.
He looked down at his son's shadow, and the resistance in his heart was not as strong as before.
After all, it is his own flesh and blood, even if he appears in the form of a ghost now, but after all, blood is thicker than water, and fatherly love can overcome all fears.
At this moment, Dai Shikai suddenly found that the candle flame in the lantern suddenly swayed. There was no wind around, and the lantern paper was tightly covered, and the swing of the candle flame was a clear sign that something was about to happen.
"Isn't it, what are you afraid of?" Dai Shikai silently cursed the space in his heart, and then took out three rune papers from his arms, lit them with the help of candles, and scattered them to the left and right and the front respectively.
These talismans were given to him by He Gu, and the talismans burned slowly on the side of the road, accompanied by curling white smoke, and the candle flame also stabilized.
At this moment, in the homestay of the Zhang family in the east of the village, Xu Qing, Wang Yichen and others also gathered in the house, waiting for Dai Shikai's news.
Chu Shuguang had recovered a lot of energy, and even felt that he had not eaten enough at night, so he took some snacks from his bag and discussed the task with Wang Yichen while eating. Ayina suddenly got up and walked to the door.
Her movements naturally attracted the attention of others, and Xu Qing was curious: "What's wrong?" ”
"Oh, I want to go to the bathroom." She was a little embarrassed, and after she stammered, the other three boys stood up together: "I'll accompany you." ”
Although Zhang Jianmin's house has a specially built bathroom, it is not in the guest room. If you want to go to the bathroom, you have to go to the room at the end of the left hand side of the hallway.
Chu Shuguang remembered what happened to him during the day, and immediately reminded the other party: "Oh yes, don't squat down and look down...... After he finished speaking, Ayina's expression became even more embarrassed. She nodded and said to Xu Qing, "Please let Brother Xu accompany me." ”
Xu Qing nodded happily, and before leaving, the two brought the props they could use, as well as the charm left by Dai Shikai, pushed open the door and walked out.
"I'll be waiting for you at the door, and I'll be called if something happens." Xu Qingmu escorted Ayina into the bathroom, and he stayed outside the door.
She smiled appreciatively at the other party, and since the sound insulation of her hands was not very good, in order to avoid embarrassment, Ayina turned on the faucet and finished using the toilet as fast as she could.
The curse scissors were always in her hand, and when she was done, she walked to the sink and washed her hands, almost subconsciously, she raised her head to the mirror and played with her hair. The light bulbs in the bathroom were old, and the light was not so bright, and under the dim light, Ayina couldn't see her facial features clearly, so she had to get closer to some mirrors and lean her face forward to check whether her makeup was spent.
However, she ignored a taboo: don't look in the mirror at night.
The next second, through the reflection of the mirror, she saw behind her, a woman in a blue robe standing. The woman stood silently in the corner of the toilet with her head hanging down, her long black hair as thick as seaweed down to her chest.
Aina's scalp exploded all at once, and she didn't know when the female ghost appeared. Is it before you come in, or when you go to the bathroom?
She was stunned for two seconds, and she even forgot the idea of asking Xu Qing outside the door for help.
Aina's breathing grew rapid, and she looked behind her in horror, suddenly thinking of her scissors...... As if sensing her gaze, the woman suddenly raised her head slightly, and in the next second, she "floated" towards the other party at a very fast speed.
Female ghost os: The old lady will make your arrangements clear today
