Chapter 5: The Psychic
"Girl, I see that your bag is quite heavy, let me help you get it!" The boss walked up to the girl and reached out to help her with her backpack. The girl hurriedly waved her hand and thanked: "Thank you, boss, this bag is not heavy, I can carry it myself!" ”
Seeing that the girl was unwilling, the boss was not polite, and took her directly to the door of a room. I saw that this room was the one with the ghost. I immediately understood that this woman was the ghost in the room, and that she had summoned me into a dream to let me know about her murder.
The girl was very satisfied with the room, and after the boss left, she took out a steamed bun from her bag and ate it with hot water, and then simply washed up and fell asleep on the bed! I took a turn around the room, and the door was latched from the inside, and the window had an iron bar. Looks like it should be safe! How did she get killed?
In the middle of the night, I was startled by a figure that suddenly appeared in front of the window of my room. When I looked closer, I realized that it was the innkeeper. What is he trying to do? Because of the heat, the girl did not close the glass window, after all, there was an iron fence outside, and no gangsters would be able to enter.
When the boss saw that the girl was asleep, he used a screwdriver to gently unscrew the screws at the four corners of the window, and I was immediately shocked, turned around and ran to the girl and shouted: "Sister, sister, wake up!" The bad guys are in! But the girl did not hear my call at all, and remained asleep.
The boss quickly removed the iron fence and climbed into the house. He didn't rush to the bedside, but reached out and closed the glass window and latched it. Seeing this, I felt a great panic in my heart......
The boss walked to the bed, and the salty pig hands were also placed on the girl's body. Feeling a touch from an unfamiliar one, the girl wakes up from her dream. Seeing this, the boss fell on the girl's body, and the girl resisted and shouted for help, and the boss raised his fist and punched the girl in the head, and the girl fainted. The picture after that is blurry, maybe the female ghost thinks I'm only a half-old child and doesn't want me to see those inappropriate scenes for children! When the picture in front of him was clearer again, it was the boss who dragged a snakeskin bag and resisted overnight. I followed the boss all the time and saw him carry the snakeskin bag with a hoe to the county seat to take out the garbage, and then dig a deep pit and bury the snakeskin bag in it.
After doing all this, the boss calmly packed up his tools and went back to the hotel. Two days later, when the boss was still reading something, a middle-aged couple came, they held a picture of the girl in their hands and asked the boss if he had seen their daughter, and the boss said calmly that he had not seen it. Later, I saw that since the girl's parents came, the boss was often awakened by nightmares. Frightened, he gave the inn to his friend, and he ran away.
The girl who turned into a ghost had no revenge, and she was full of resentment, so she often intimidated the people who came to stay at the hotel. But every time she was frightened, she curled up in the corner, exuding boundless loneliness and sadness.
I walked over and squatted in front of her and comforted her softly, "Sister, don't be sad!" Whoever kills you will be punished! ”
She looked up, looked at me with empty eyes, and smiled mockingly, "Retribution? Hahahaha...... How could I die if Heaven had eyes? If there is really retribution, why can that wicked man still live well? And me? Not to mention being a ghost, and still trapped in this small inn and never overborn? You say it lightly, because you don't know how I feel! Hmph......" The female ghost suddenly smiled weirdly and said, "Why don't you come and accompany me!" With that, she reached out and grabbed my neck!
Fear hit my brain, I kicked my legs and struggled hard, my hands grabbed her fingers on my neck to try to break free, but after all, I was small and weak, no matter how I struggled, the hand on my neck became tighter and tighter, I felt that I couldn't breathe, and my lungs were swollen and painful due to lack of oxygen.
"Master, save me......" I knew that only Zhang Guanshan could save me at this time, so I desperately shouted this sentence. After I shouted, I felt a chill on my forehead, and the feeling of being stuck in my neck disappeared in an instant. I slowly opened my eyes and saw Zhang Guanshan's face magnified in front of me, his eyes full of worry. Seeing me wake up, he hurriedly asked, "Lin Xi, are you having a nightmare?" ”
I nodded and sat up. Zhang Guanshan turned around and handed me a glass of cold boiled water, and I poured it down.
"Lin Xi, tell the master what dream you had?" Zhang Guanshan saw that I was relieved, so he asked. I swallowed my saliva, sorted out my thoughts and told Zhang Guanshan about the dream I had before, and after Zhang Guanshan listened, he stroked his non-existent beard and sighed and said, "I didn't expect that you are still a psychic!" I really don't know if this is a blessing or a misfortune? ”
Hearing Zhang Guanshan's words, I was puzzled, "Master, what is psychic?" What is the blessing or misfortune? ”
Zhang Guanshan sighed again and touched my head, "Psychic means that people can communicate with ghosts without the help of any medium, and they can also see the true body of ghosts without the help of any magic weapons, and the souls of psychic people can also enter and exit the underworld. People with spiritism are not only several times faster than normal people when they practice Taoism or Yin-Yang Arts, but their power is also much higher than that of ordinary people. It's just that since the Wuhu Chaohua, there has never been a person who can be born psychic, and such a person can be described as a genius who practices Taoism. That's a blessing! ”
I was overjoyed, I didn't expect that I was still a genius who practiced Taoism. But seeing the worry and unbearability in Zhang Guanshan's eyes, my heart drooped violently, and I hurriedly asked, "Master, what about the misfortune?" ”
Zhang Guanshan shook his head gently: "According to ancient records, psychic people can pass through yin and yang, if their minds are a little weaker, they will go mad or fall into nightmares, and they will never wake up." Of course, this is not the greatest danger. The biggest danger is that if the ghost of a psychic person is trained into a ghost slave by the Yin and Yang family, then those Yin and Yang families can know about the underworld through the ghost slave, not to mention that you are still the body of the Yin. If I didn't practice Dao Techniques but Yin Yang Techniques, I wouldn't dare to guarantee that I would be able to suppress the demons in my heart and train you into my ghost slave before you have grown up. ”
Zhang Guanshan's outspokenness scared me as if I had escaped into an ice cellar, and I was freezing from the inside out. Zhang Guanshan looked at me with pity, "Lin Xi, since your grandfather entrusted you to me, and you worshipped me as a master, I will do my best to protect you!" If that day comes, the master will beat you to the ground, so that you can't be a ghost slave. Do you resent the master? ”
