The ninth sister looked at the black charcoal, looked at us again, and asked puzzledly, "What are you looking for this thing for?" ”

Seeing that the matter had come to this point, she couldn't hide it, so she had to tell Jiu Mei and Pan, and she suddenly said: "No wonder I've been here for so many days, and I've never seen my night mother show up, why should I be so sick." ”

The clouds finally retrieved the charcoal, and everyone gathered around to look at it carefully.

There is such a sentence in the description of "self-hanging" recorded in the "Collection of Records of Clearing Grievances": "If you really hang yourself, dig three feet below the foot of the hanging, and find out that the fire is the party." ”

It is said that a piece of charcoal will remain in the ground under the feet of the hanged ghost, which is caused by the deceased's last breath before his death sinks into the earth.

The "Compendium of Materia Medica" also records "human charcoal".

Shi Zhen said: This is a hanged man, and there is something like bran charcoal under it, which can be dug up immediately, and then it will go deeper. If you don't dig it, you will be hanged again. Gai people are subject to the two qi of yin and yang, and synthesize the body. When the soul gathers, it lives, and when it is scattered, it dies. When you die, your soul rises to the heavens and descends to the earth. The spirit belongs to the yin, and its essence sinks into the earth and turns into this thing; It is also like a star falling into a stone, a tiger's death eyes fall to the ground and turn into a white stone, and human blood enters the ground for phosphorus and blue.

This human soul charcoal is left behind by suicide who can't think of it. Those who commit suicide will have a knot in their hearts. This knot does not dissolve, but gathers in other things.

This person is round and not slippery, and there are strange lines on it. It was heavy and cold in his hand, and a black spiritual power wrapped around it. Placed on the desktop, it will roll around on its own, and it seems to have intelligence and can recognize directions.

"Huh? This little black pill can still move! Yunjian and the ninth sister were very surprised.

"This is the spirit formed by the last breath of the suicide, it is normal to move, and what is abnormal now is that the spiritual power on this human spirit is intact, which means that it is not the human spirit that is causing trouble!" I said solemnly to the two people in the room. "Now I have to go to the backyard of the Night Mother again to get the blackiron box back. Otherwise, there is no way to properly place this person. ”

When Yunjian heard that he was going to go again, he instantly fainted on the table, and said in embarrassment: "I don't want to go again, I still have palpitations now!" ”

"Let's go together, the situation in this courtyard is much more complicated than I imagined, everyone has to act together." I pulled Yunjian, the ninth sister, opened the door softly, and dived into the backyard of the night mother.

Yunjian and Jiu Mei glanced at each other and followed me quietly.

Soon I came to the pool where I had just fought, and saw that the room of the night mother was lit up.

In the middle of the night, a figure was projected on the window, looking like a man.

Could it be that it was the helper invited by the Night Mother?

Seeing this, the three of them did not dare to act rashly, leaned against the rockery, and observed the movement in the house.

But seeing that the people in the house were just pacing left and right, looking a little anxious, a slender figure threw himself into his arms, and neither of them in the house spoke, and this night seemed extremely quiet.

Yunjian gestured to me, leaned into my ear and said, "You make a seal, seal my breath, I'll go and bring the dark iron box over, let's go." ”

"Hmm." I didn't say much, and immediately began to seal, and a faint air flow enveloped the whole body of the clouds.

He tiptoed to the bottom of the tree to take out the tin box, and then carefully carried the tin back to us.

Everyone didn't have time to say more, so they took the iron box and left quickly.

In the dark, a pair of eagle eyes witnessed everything tonight......

The human soul was placed, and the dark iron box was placed at the foot of the bed, and it was not contained in the lotus two ritual staffs. This thing was found in the backyard of the Night Mother, and naturally it belongs to the Night Family, and it is best to hand it over to Night Wind Rin tomorrow to dispose of.

It was too late in the night, and everyone was exhausted and slept very hard, until the next day, when the sun was up, and they woke up quietly.

Night Wind Rin drank too much last night and was a little unconscious. When he knocked on my door in the morning, his eyes were swollen like brass bells and bloodshot.

"Yueqing, how is it?" He rubbed his eyes, asked tiredly, and closed the door with his hand.

I took out the black iron box at the foot of the bed and gave it to him, and said, "I was in your mother's room before, and I detected the fluctuation of this person's spirit, thinking that it was the hanged ghost, but who knew that it was ...... last night."

explained what happened last night, and said that he was also helpless.

"Only to find new clues, the man in black was scratched by Angelica, he is easy to identify, and if he finds him, he is not far from the truth." I say.

Ye Feng Rin was a little lost, and seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and said, "Yueqing, don't tell the truth, what's wrong with my mother?" ”

Rin Nightwind was probably very skeptical of the fuck, but I couldn't bear to tell him.

I have endured the pain of the death of my loved ones, and I understand the sadness that tears my heart and lungs. Even if it's a day, an hour, a minute, and then you know the truth, it's good to have hope for a while!

Try to squeeze out the truest smile and comfort him: "Now that the clue is broken, I don't dare to talk nonsense, cherish the current time more." ”

Frustrated, he left the room.

For the next few days, we secretly searched for the man in black that night, but we had no clue.

I don't want to be one morning, Yunjian and Jiumei were playing poker in my room, and I saw the maids in the yard running to the hall in a panic.

Seeing that the situation was not right, the two threw down the pokers, and the three of them rushed out of the room and also ran to the hall to see what was going on.

Unexpectedly, the old man at night was actually foaming at the mouth and lying in the center of the hall, and several doctors surrounded the crowd, doing cardiopulmonary resuscitation for the old man.

Night Wind sat nervously on his knees, looking at his father with confused eyes.

I walked past the maid and walked over to Rin Nightwind, put my arm around his shoulder, and picked him up.

"What's going on?" I asked.

"Coming out of my mother's room is like that, it looks like it's overindulgence." He said coldly.

The ninth sister gasped and exclaimed to herself: "How is it possible? Isn't Auntie sick? ”

Indeed, this happened very strangely, and it was clear that someone wanted to kill the old man.

With the efforts of several doctors, the old man gradually woke up, smashed his mouth, drank two sips of water, and everyone saw that the old man was fine, and dispersed.

Leaving two young and strong domestic maids, the old man was carried into the room to recuperate.

We hurried into the house with Night Breeze Rin to ask the old man what was going on.

The doctor outside the house did not leave, followed the house, examined the old man's body, and instructed the domestic maid to fetch the herbs and decoction.

When the doctor went out, Ye Feng Rin closed the door, sat down in front of the old man's bed and asked in a whisper, "Are you better?" ”

The old man nodded slightly, still with a smile on his face, and he couldn't tell whether he was uncomfortable or not.

"What just happened?" Rin asked.

The old man coughed twice, gasped and said, "I can't remember." ”

Can't remember? I saw that things were indeed abnormal, so I used my spiritual sense to check the old man's body, and found that there was a trace of imprint in his mind that did not belong to him, which was entangled near the gate of heaven, affecting the old man's spirit.

The symptoms are similar to those of Alzheimer's.

I went out of the house and stood in the courtyard, the warm sunlight of Yunnan shining on the mountains and rivers, but at the moment I felt so cold. The night family has a big business and looks glamorous, but the parents of the night breeze are like fish on the board, and they can only be slaughtered by others. Maybe that's his helplessness.

After a while, the night breeze came out with red eyes and sat down beside me.

"How's the old man?" I asked.

"It's bad."

"What about your loved ones at home?" I asked.

"I heard from my uncle that they all went to the provinces to manage the industry, and I haven't seen them for at least five years." He said.

"How so? Isn't it time for relatives to meet together every year? "I was a little surprised.

"The struggle of interests in my family is very serious, when I was not born, the family for a precious medicinal herb, cannibalism, resulting in the estrangement of relatives, I have been wandering for so many years, most of the time looking for my relatives, but to nothing." He shook his head and said.

"The old man's spiritual sense is limited, do you know?" I asked.

"What!" Nightwind Rin's eyes widened, "Why didn't you tell me earlier?" ”

"I also just learned that he has a trace of imprint in his mind that does not belong to him, wandering around the gate of heaven, and over the years will cause people to show symptoms of Alzheimer's disease. Obviously, someone wants to put the old man to death! I looked into the shocked eyes of the night breeze, and he showed an expression of disbelief, uncomfortable and helpless.
