"Chapter 5 Relationships"
I lay on the old man's bed and smelled the pungent gas and then passed out, not because I was instigated, but not because the gas smelled a little bad, and it smelled a little like vomiting.

The next morning, I don't know who sent me back, but when I woke up I found myself lying on the bed in my room, and the sharp pain I had gone from the previous night. It was as if last night's events were like a dream. When I regained consciousness, I leaned back on my bed and slowly remembered what had happened last night, wishing it had been a nightmare so that I wouldn't be hanging on to it all the time. But the reality tells me that what happened last night was not the nightmare I had hoped, because I saw that the yellow charm on my stomach was still stuck on my body, and it never took it off.
"Are you awake?" On the side, my grandfather said when he saw me wake up. I was shocked, there was a living person sitting next to me for so long, I didn't realize it, could it be because of yesterday's incident that I am now sluggish in my reflexes? After thinking about it, I realized that something was wrong with the current atmosphere. It stands to reason that only me and the strange old man knew about the events of last night, and when I looked into my grandfather's eyes, I found that the kindness in my eyes had been transformed into a kind of anger, and my intuition told me that he might know something about the events of last night.
"Grandpa, Iβ" I struggled to my feet, trying to explain something to my grandfather. But Grandpa waved his hand, put his hand on my shoulder, sighed secretly, and said nothing, his eyes kept glued to the yellow talisman pasted on my stomach, frowning, as if remembering something. After a long time, my grandfather's voice was a little solemn and said to me, "Where is the old man who helped you yesterday now?" β
Obediently, when I heard this, I was shocked into a cold sweat, it seems that grandpa really knows about this. I don't know why, since I was a child, my grandfather has always told me not to deal with some street fortune tellers, although I have also asked why, but every time I ask, my grandfather will look at me with a particularly stern gaze. Over time, I stopped asking why.
"What, what old manβ" I said with my head bowed a little embarrassed, trying to make a final denial.
"Don't pretend, what did you do last night, how can you hide it from me?" There seemed to be a little dissatisfaction in Grandpa's voice, and according to my understanding of the old man's character, he may have been really angry. When I saw my grandfather's angry expression, I immediately did not hesitate, and immediately told him the address of the old man, as well as the fact that I met him yesterday morning and what happened last night.
After I finished speaking, my grandfather's face finally saw a solemnity that I couldn't usually see at all, such an expression was something I had never seen with my grandfather for more than ten years, and it seemed that this matter was indeed very tricky for him. As early as when I had nightmares for no reason, my grandfather had some awareness, according to his old man's speculation, the time when the female ghost came to me was a little different from what he expected, and I wanted to find a way to help me get through this level safely during this time, but what I didn't expect was that this female ghost's actions would actually do it to me the next night.
"Grandpa, who is that old man?" I looked at my grandfather, who was a little worried, and asked. When grandpa saw the yellow charm I was wearing, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then there was a trace of nostalgia in his eyes, as if he had seen something familiar, and when he asked me, he actually guessed that the person who wore the yellow charm for me was an old man, which made me more and more convinced that there is an inextricable relationship between grandpa and this old man, at least, grandpa's performance so far, so that I can't think of the second situation.
After thinking about it for a long time, my grandfather finally told me what happened to the old man: "The person you met, his real name is Hu Shuiqing, he has been cultivating in the Taoist temple in the Northeast when he was young, and he is my fellow disciple. At that time, our master accidentally woke up the corpse general who was practicing in the cave after the deep mountain, so he fought with the corpse general, and finally although he successfully sealed it, the master was also seriously injured because of this, and soon after he returned, he went to the west because there was no cure. When he was dying, he gave us a task, after descending the mountain, one of us was going to the northeast and the other to the southwest, because at that time, the master watched the sky at night and found that in the next few decades, the demonic atmosphere there was very strong, so he asked us to go and suppress it. After descending the mountain, the two of us also obeyed the master's will, and in the following years, we also had occasional correspondence, but after a long time, we had no contact again. I didn't expect to see him here today. β
After listening to the story of my grandfather when he was young, I couldn't help but suddenly realize, I didn't expect my grandfather to know about this ghost, no wonder even the local government officials have great respect for him, it still has such an identity.
It's just that I don't know that grandpa himself is doing this business, why didn't I deal with some fortune tellers and feng shui masters since I was a child, which really made me have some confusion, and then I asked my grandfather, he said that although he did this line of work suppressed the evil spirit here, but he also offended a lot of little ghosts, because he has a lot of cultivation, so those little ghosts dare not find my grandfather's stubble. If I had anything to do with this business, then those ghosts would be haunted by me, and even my grandfather would have no way to recover.
