On the weekend, I went back to my mother's rented house, she cooked a lot of dishes, we both were quiet when we ate, and we didn't talk to each other, after eating, my mother went to wash the dishes, I went back to my room, I looked at the mobile phone page for a while, and my mother pushed the door in: "Son, there is something suddenly in the veterinary hospital, I have to go out." ”

"Well, come back early."

Mom left my room, I walked on the bed for a few minutes, I looked through the window of the room, Mom stopped a taxi, I saw Mom leave, so I quickly put down my phone and went to Mom's room, Mom's room was very simple, there was only a bed, a bedside table and a wardrobe, I went to the bedside table first, there were only some underwear and socks in the bedside table, and a small jewelry box, and there was nothing on the pillow surface of the bed, and then I went to the wardrobe, Mom's wardrobe was full of clothes, I searched in the closet and didn't find anything useful, I sat down on the bed, and when I was about to give up, the bed on the butt side creaked.

I remember when I moved here before, the bed board of this bed can be opened, I opened the bed board, there are several large suitcases on the bed board, and a few bedding, I tossed for a long time and still found nothing, my mother's room looks very normal, there is nothing wrong, I sat on the edge of the bed and shook my head, probably just I thought too much.

I stood up and turned around to leave, and suddenly, a strange thought flashed in my heart, I always felt as if someone was staring at me, this room is such a big place, if there is a camera, I will almost soon find out, I went around my mother's room again, and then I went back to my own room, I lay on the bed, touching the scar on my forehead, my mother must know something, but she never told me, why did she hide from me, or rather, I sat up on the ground, Or that the seal on my forehead itself has something to do with my mother.

I sent a WeChat message to Huang Zihua: "Tomorrow I want to meet with you, you, and the people I saw last time." ”

Huang Zihua replied after a while: "Okay, tomorrow we will go over to pick you up." ”

The next morning, I told my mother that the school orientation party was going to rehearse, my mother did not suspect it, I left the house, walked to the other side of the street that was out of sight from the window of the house, I was just about to call Huang Zihua, I heard a car horn on the other side of the road, I walked over, the window rolled up, it was Sun Kai, waved to me, I opened the door, sat in the co-pilot's seat, Sun Kai kicked the accelerator.

I sat in the car a little embarrassed, for a while I didn't know what to say to Sun Kai, Sun Kai didn't care, he saw that I didn't seem to want to talk, so he directly twisted the radio, the sound of music was deafening, Sun Kai drove the car to the city center.

"Where are we going?"

"Temple Street." Sun Kai replied briefly: "You have lived in this city for sixteen years, do you really have no impression at all?" ”

I looked out the window, and there were tall buildings flashing out of the window, both familiar and unfamiliar, and it would not be so accurate to say that I couldn't remember anything at all, because there was always a place in my heart that seemed to be full of longing and attachment to the city.

Sun Kai's car stopped in a commercial street, this commercial street I came to the university to report on the day I took a bus to pass by, at that time I also paid attention to this commercial street, because this street is antique, the buildings on both sides of the street obviously have some years, and compared with the high-rise buildings on both sides of the street is indeed a little out of place, I walked the car, when I stepped into the temple street, my ears actually sounded a strange buzz, I covered my head.

Sun Kai looked at me with some concern: "Are you okay, your forehead hurts again?" ”

"I'm fine." I endured it, and I walked into Temple Street, where everything was so familiar and incomparably unfamiliar: "Where are we going?" I asked Sun Kai.

"You'll know when you go." Sun Kai took me, along the Baihua Inn to the inside, this street is not long, the shops on both sides are also very strange, mostly some antiques and calligraphy and paintings, and some I can't say that the shop, and I walked around, found some mysteries that seem to be mysteries, some shops will stick a rune outside the door, some will not, most of the runes will be placed on the door of a bronze mirror, and the bronze mirror of many shops is an antique treasure, valuable at a glance.

Sun Kai and I pointed out these strange places, and Sun Kai couldn't help laughing: "This is a ghost street. ”

"Ghost Street?" I couldn't help but be surprised.

"Yes, many shops on this street are opened by ghosts, of course, there are also people who open them, you see a rune posted on the door or the edge of the door is engraved with runes, it is a ghost shop, these runes are mainly to prevent the outside Yang Qi from penetrating into the room, although the ghosts here can live with mortals, but the long-term erosion of Yang will also weaken the ghost longevity, so you can only paste runes or engrave spells on the door to reduce the infiltration of Yang Qi.

And those without engraved runes are opened by living people, and those with copper mirrors on them mean that this is an electricity opened by a living person, but it is only for the business of the yang world, and ghosts are not allowed to enter, and if there is no copper mirror, it means that this is a shop opened by a living person, but the business on both sides of the yin and yang is done. ”

"Will there really be a ghost?"

"Of course, but not now, you see, the runes at the door of these stores are also different, this red rune is the sound of both yin and yang, and the black one is only for night trading, and this kind of shop is very aggressive, living people, especially women and children, must not enter."

I glanced at the shop in front of me, it was a shop with black runes, this shop had no plaque, the glass of the shop was black, no light at all, and I couldn't see what it was like inside, there was a paper lamp hanging outside the store, and the paper lamp swayed in the wind from time to time, which looked like people couldn't help but panic.

We continued to walk forward, and at this time Sun Kai stopped: "This is it." ”

I looked up, and there was a wooden plaque in front of me, with four large gilded characters on it: "Nether Dart Game"

"Let's go inside."

I stared at the big words of the Netherworld, there was no pain in my forehead, I breathed a sigh of relief, and followed Sun Kai in, but as soon as I walked into the Netherworld, I saw an unusually beautiful woman standing at the door of the Netherworld, she stared at me with a pair of eyes, and then smiled: "Welcome back, Hu Guohua." ”

"You know me, too?"

The woman nodded, her figure was bewitching, and her facial features were as delicate and beautiful as Huang Zihua, but there was a heroic and murderous aura between her eyebrows, which made people involuntarily feel respectful.
