Chapter 17: Psychic Whispers
Driven by curiosity and a pounding heartbeat, I gently opened the door of the old-fashioned cabinet. But the strange thing is that the inside of this cabinet seems to be very ordinary, and there is no dark and bottomless secret passage that I imagined.
Knocking on the cabinet board, I was even more puzzled, because there was no hollow sound coming from inside. Could it be that this secret passage does not exist at all, but my grandfather's ghost is attached to Liu Degui's body, and it will come out of it strangely and silently?
Just as I was puzzled, a staccato sound drifted into my ears. The voice was very ethereal, not coming from behind the cabinet, and it was difficult to judge the direction of the voice, but I was sure that it was Liu Degui's voice.
Although Liu Degui rarely spoke at dinner, I was deeply impressed by his voice, which made people feel extremely uncomfortable but couldn't say anything.
It seems that Liu Degui is talking to someone, but he can't hear the voice of others. Liu Degui's voice was small and intermittent, I held my breath and listened for a while before I understood the general meaning.
I pulled the T-shirt on my body, stretched out my hand and wiped the red marks left by Xiaofeng desperately on my shoulder. Grandpa's words just now made me think that the yang lamp on my shoulder was hard to protect, and I suddenly heard Liu Degui's words, and I believed what my grandfather said that if the yang energy breaks through the chimney door, the spiritual ear can be opened.
In Liu Degui's dialogue, it seems to question whether someone can suck my spiritual flesh to replenish his body. Although I didn't hear anyone else talking, from his tone, I guessed that the person who was talking to him must be his old lady and grandmother.
I felt a little incredible, but I had to believe it. Liu Degui had died a long time ago, but he could still maintain some of the characteristics of a living person, and it was because the fairy mother-in-law cast an evil spell to keep her son's soul still attached to his own body.
Although the soul and the flesh are together, it is no longer the true unity of the soul and the flesh, so Liu Degui's body will still slowly decay. The best way is to suck the aura of people with a certain Taoist foundation, and slowly dry up and rot the flesh and blood will be enriched.
And I, naturally, am the most suitable person in the fairy mother-in-law's appearance. She knew my grandfather, and naturally thought that I might have been nurtured by my grandfather since I was a child and learned a Taoist spell, but I was too young to have my grandfather's attainments, and I could not be controlled by the evil magic of the fairy mother-in-law.
I finally understood why when Xiaofeng prevented me from entering the Liu family's mansion, Granny Xian actually made an exception to allow me to enter and asked me to stay overnight.
Liu Degui, a half-human and half-ghost guy, wants to suck my essence and spirit to make up for the rot of his flesh and blood. If he succeeds, then I will slowly turn into a carrion.
Xiaofeng was instructed by Granny Xian to deliberately seduce me in the kitchen, trying to subtly press the double lamp on my shoulder. The family conspired to kill me, and Liu Fugui would be no exception.
Although he obeyed his mother's words, it can be seen that his daughter-in-law came to seduce me, and he didn't have a taste in his heart, so he hid in the kitchen door and peeped, and was hit by me who left in a hurry.
I have to think of a way to fool that Liu Degui, and at the same time secretly make him bad and let him know how good I am. Isn't he going to suck my aura? The level in front of me is estimated to be difficult to deal with him, not to mention that there is that fairy woman behind him!
After thinking about it for a while, I suddenly had an idea, quietly opened the door of my room, and felt for the kitchen in the backyard.
As soon as I arrived at the kitchen door, a hand suddenly put on my shoulder. Startled, I turned around and subconsciously pushed, only to feel that the tentacles were extremely soft, and a woman's painful voice came into my ears.
After a while, I was surprised to find that Shi Mengya actually fell to the ground. Needless to say, the hand that was on my shoulder must have been hers, and she was pushed down by me.
The light in Xiaofeng's bedroom turned on, and Liu Fugui stood in front of us with his clothes on. He said with a gloomy face, "What happened?" It's so late, why don't you two go to bed and go to the kitchen door? ”
I was just thinking of a reason to answer him, Shi Mengya got up from the ground at this time, gently rubbed her left arm with one hand, and said softly: "Brother Liu, I'm sorry." I was thirsty and there was no water in the room, so I wanted to find water under the kitchen to drink. ”
"Probably Brother Ling Sen is also looking for water to drink, he arrived one step earlier than me. I was wearing high heels, and I accidentally twisted it just now, which alarmed Brother Liu and affected you and your sister-in-law's rest, I'm sorry. ”
Liu Fugui's face softened slightly, and he said sadly: "I don't care if you are friends or not, but since I spent money to invite you to come to my house to pretend to be my brother's girlfriend, you have to follow my rules." ”
"You two want a private meeting, I don't care if you get out of this door, but tonight, be honest with me anyway, if my mother sees the flaw, according to our verbal agreement, you can return me twice the money."
Shi Mengya said 'um, um' repeatedly, and Liu Fugui said in a low voice: "You two want to drink water, hurry up, hurry back to your respective rooms." ”
Seeing him enter the room, I quickly flashed into the kitchen with Shi Mengya. Looking at Shi Mengya, who looked a little flustered, I smiled and comforted her: "Mengya, I'm sorry just now, I was too reckless, didn't hurt you, right?" ”
Shi Mengya shook her head and asked me softly, "Brother Ling Sen, I want to know, why did you sneak into the backyard at this time?" ”
I said slyly: "Hehe, Mengya, didn't you explain to Liu Fugui, I came to find water to drink because I was thirsty." ”
Shi Mengya blushed, smacked me lightly and said, "You come less!" I just gave you a round just now, Brother Ling Sen, can you tell me the truth? ”
I smiled and said, "Mengya, who made you so beautiful, I can't sleep, I want to come to you to talk." ”
Shi Mengya said a little angrily: "Brother Ling Sen, don't talk nonsense with me. If you talk to me, can you come to the kitchen? Tell me, did you find this house too weird? ”
My heart was shocked, and I whispered, "Mengya, do you also feel something unusual?" ”
A hint of panic flashed in her eyes, and she said in a low voice: "Ever since I entered this Liu family compound, I have always felt weird and uncomfortable. Especially after seeing that Liu Degui, I regretted agreeing to come and pretend to be his girlfriend. ”
I settled down and said to her with a solemn expression: "Mengya, your feelings are not wrong. If I told you that there really are ghosts in this world, would you believe it? ”
Shi Mengya shook her head slightly, suddenly nodded again, hesitated for a moment and said, "Although I am the editor in charge of supernatural stories, I have never seen any ghosts, and I don't believe that there are really ghosts. It's just that I'm a little scared now, as if there might be ghosts in this world. ”
She suddenly hugged me in horror and said tremblingly: "Brother Ling Sen, you have a family preaching technique, did you see that there are really ghosts in this house, so you came to the backyard to tell me?" ”
