Chapter 165: Promised
,
Looking at the things that didn't make sense from the other party, I hesitated again and again, but I still knew one word:
"Good!"
I agreed, but I didn't know how to do it, or even how to help them communicate.
But I don't know what the consequences will be, or even how to do it.
I didn't fall asleep until dawn, thinking about it all the time.
After breakfast, I called Lao Zhou.
As soon as he heard this, he blew up, calling me a fool, a fool, and a troublemaker. I listened patiently and didn't say a word.
When he had scolded enough, I said something straight:
"I think,Not every ghost has harmful thoughts.,I feel that this person.,Or should I say this ghost.,He just can't let go of the woman he loves.,I want to meet her.,Say a word.,It's not an exaggeration?"
Lao Zhou was silent on the other end of the phone for a long time, and said slowly:
"It's not an exaggeration, but have you ever wondered what price you're going to pay?"
I thought about it and said:
"Maybe it hurts me, but I think it's worth it. What have you done for so many years, which one has not hurt you? It's just that our starting point is different, but the mood and purpose are the same, and I also want to help others, especially this kind of loving person, or ghost. I don't care about anything else. ”
Lao Zhou sighed and said softly:
"Okay, I'll fulfill you, you prepare some yellow paper, a drop of that girl's blood, three long incense, I'll tell you exactly how to do it. But you have to think about it, you will lose at least seven days of your life in this matter. ”
I replied to him with a grin:
"I didn't miss that week."
Hanging up the phone, I said hello to Shen Mo, and went out the door, going directly to her cousin's house.
I stood at that door and knocked on the door for a long time, but no one inside paid any attention to me.
The three-meter-high courtyard wall is not an insurmountable chasm for me. took a few steps back, ran a run, jumped on the net, kicked on the wall and slammed it hard, successfully grabbed the wall with both hands, and the whole body climbed up.
Jumping into the courtyard, I stood on the ground and looked around, although it was the height of summer, but the courtyard seemed to be late autumn, and it was desolate as far as the eye could see.
The yard was no smaller than the yard of Shen Mo's house, but all the plants were withered and dead lying on the ground, and there was not a single green leaf in the entire yard.
The withered yellow leaves fell all over the ground, and it seemed that no one had cleaned them for a long time, and the leaves under my feet were probably at least two years ago, and they had rotted and were slimy when stepped on.
There is an octagonal well next to the wall, but there is no water in it.
I don't know what that means that a well has dried up in this water town.
Walking towards a house in the middle of the courtyard, he tried to shout:
"Anyone? Is anyone home? ”
As soon as I reached out and pushed the door, something black flew out of it and threw it straight at my head. I tilted my head to the side and dodged.
The thing fell to the ground with a crisp thud, shattered, and I turned my head to look at what appeared to be an incense burner.
The light in the room was very dim, and all the doors and windows were blocked with cloth, which looked a bit like Lao Zhou's broken house.
I hurriedly said:
"I'm here to help you, stop throwing things, maybe, I have a way to get you to see each other again."
"Smack"
There was another crisp cracking sound, but this time it sounded inside the house, and it wasn't thrown.
I peeked through the hole in the window paper in the door that had been pierced by the thing just now, and it was so dark that I couldn't see anything.
Just as he was about to speak again, the door suddenly opened, and a woman with a haggard face stood in the doorway.
I was a little unsure of the identity of the woman in front of me, Shen Mo said that her cousin was only two years older than her, but the woman in front of me looked at least thirty-five or sixteen.
The hair is scattered, the smell of alcohol, the big bags under the eyes are about to catch up with the eyelids, the face is pale, the eyes are blank, and the breath can be smelled in the mouth exuding a mistake.
I hesitated and asked:
"Excuse me, are you Shen Ju'er?"
The woman looked me up and down a few times, burped a stinking wine, and said impatiently:
"Who are you? What are you looking for me? How can you help me? ”
I sympathize with her, but I don't agree with her self-defeating behavior.
"My name is Liu Wu, if you are Shen Ju'er, I think, I am here to help you meet your dead boyfriend."
Her blank eyes had a clear glow after I had said this, but they vanished after a moment.
"Hurry up, liar, my mother has no money to be deceived by you."
I was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood.
It seems that she has been wanting to see that man again in this way all these years, and she has not been deceived for this reason.
"Don't worry, I don't want money, he begged me to come to you."
Shen Ju'er's eyes showed a look of extreme contempt:
", you're already the hundredth person to say that, I won't believe it."
I was a little helpless, thought about it, or forget it, since people don't believe it, why should I do it?
I glanced at her, turned and walked towards the door.
Just as I stretched out my hand to open the door, Shen Ju'er suddenly spoke:
"Wait a minute! You're really not lying to me? ”
Turning around, staring at her with a hint of brilliance, I nodded firmly.
She let me into the room, sat down on a dusty chair, and said with a wry smile:
"I can't fully trust you right now, but if you really do it, no matter how much money you want, I can write you an IOU first, pay in installments, and I will definitely give it to you!"
I smiled helplessly and said:
"I really don't need to, I didn't lie to you, it was 'he' who found me and wanted to say something to you personally. Moreover, I am Shen Mo's boyfriend, so you don't have to be too polite with me. ”
"Shen Mo?"
She lowered her head suspiciously, as if searching her memory to see if such a person really existed.
"I remember, Shen Mo is indeed a cousin of mine, but I haven't been in touch for many years, is this why you want to help me?"
"No, I already told you, he begged me to help you, or rather to help you."
Shen Ju'er stood up and asked me calmly:
"Need something for Shen Mo? I'm going to buy it. ”
I smiled, a little bitter.
It seems that this woman has really been deceived many times over the years.
"No, you don't need to prepare anything, I have everything I need to use."
