Chapter 53: Ghost Recognition

I was immediately curious and asked, "What the hell?" ”

Next, in the middle of the diagnosis, Rui Wei told me about her experience intermittently. Of course, there are a lot of my personal summaries and comments in between.

Anyone who learns to hunt ghosts will have a solo trip before leaving the school. By constantly meeting strangers, dealing with all kinds of things, practicing what you have learned, and more importantly, tempering your mind, after all, dealing with the complexity of people's hearts is the greater challenge than catching ghosts.

Rui Wei's knowledge is called "ghost hunting", in fact, I think it is more accurate to describe it with two other words, these two words are: solving doubts.

Whether you are poor or rich, people are living the same life. And in life, you will encounter a lot of things that make you feel confused. In this era when science is not yet popular, in order to pursue psychological security, ordinary people are often willing to believe in the so-called ghosts and gods. It's no surprise that the "ghost hunting" industry is all the rage.

Listening to Rui Wei's meaning, the knowledge she learned is generally divided into four systems, that is, the four points that Confucius "does not speak": strange, force, chaos, and god.

The so-called weird, simply put, is something that is strange and does not develop according to common sense. Whenever there is a doubt, there must be something that violates the ordinary law, and once this contrary to common sense is clarified, the whole mystery will be solved. Just like the woman in red who hanged herself before, it looks very weird, but there must be her logic behind it. In the end, Rui Wei found the knot in the deceased's heart, that is, the man with a negative heart.

The so-called force is brave and violent. At first glance, this does not seem to be a question, but in fact, people have always been full of doubts about the emergence of such intense emotions as "anger". And tragedies that arise from unexplained anger abound. Rui Wei has practiced a good kung fu, to a large extent, to cope with this kind of scene. Even though she often targets the harmless me.

The so-called chaos is chaos and unethical. Different from the natural laws violated by "strangeness", what "chaos" violates is often a kind of subjectively formulated moral code. Rui Wei said that when she traveled alone, she encountered a lot of human tragedies of fratricidal and father-son fighting, all of which fell into the category of "chaos".

The so-called gods are what we usually call "ghosts", which are mysterious and incomprehensible things. In fact, the hearts of the ancients were still quite large, and very few people would think about why the sun shines and whether the earth has boundaries or not, which has nothing to do with life. But if someone makes an oath that they can't do and is killed by lightning, it has something to do with their life, and they want to know why.

In a specific matter, these broad categories of problems are often intertwined. If you want to solve things, knowledge is often secondary, and experience plays a more important role.

I was amazed when I heard her talk about this! I have always only thought that she was a female celestial master, and by the way, she did it quickly, but I didn't expect that what she learned covered modern philosophy, medicine, psychology, detectives, and even many natural science fields, and her application of these things was basically easy to grasp, without traces, and it was natural to tell it, not at all like I summarized so deliberately. I couldn't help but make my father interested in Rui Wei, who taught her these things!

Now comes the topic she is going to talk about.

At that time, she passed by a small town, and someone heard that she was a female celestial master, so they asked her to help investigate a thing, saying that four women had died in a row in the town at night recently, all of them had hanged themselves at home in the middle of the night, and there were no traces of prying open doors and windows, and there was no sign of these people making enemies with anyone.

But this person named Zhao Xiaoliu who came to her once saw with his own eyes that the last woman who died seemed to open the door to a thin man that night, but because he was a little drunk at the time, his vision was blurred, and he didn't see the man's appearance clearly. Later, when I heard that the woman was dead, I remembered this stubble.

Rui Wei had been ambushing the town that night, trying to see if there were any suspicious people who had come out at night, but he didn't see anyone else except for a hunchbacked and lame watchman.

Less than seven days later, another person died, still hanged at home.

Rui Wei already knew it at this time, and that night, she asked the mayor to find all the people who matched the figure described by Zhao Xiaoliu, and she wanted to find the person who was possessed by the murderous demon from the middle.

The population of this town was not large, and the mayor brought a total of five people, and Rui Wei asked them to stand in a row, and carefully observed them by the dim light.

In addition to her, several old people who had lived in the town for many years, including the mayor, were also curious to see how this young girl could catch the ghost.

Rui Wei looked at it, and suddenly put his hand on the shoulder of one of the young men, and said in a coquettish voice: "My brother is so handsome, have you ever been married?" Would you like to sit at my sister's house when you have time? ”

Everyone was stunned when they heard this, but Rui Wei had already keenly seen that at that moment, only one person present had a murderous flash on his face!

It was too late, but the dementor stick in her hand had already swung at a person sitting in the corner, and he couldn't move his neck against the wall on the spot.

At this time, the expression on Rui Wei's face had become extremely cold, and he said sharply: "Evil obstacle! Don't show up yet! ”

Everyone's eyes focused on it and took a closer look, and what she caught turned out to be Zheng Laohan, who had been fighting in this town for more than 20 years!

Everyone was shocked, and the mayor immediately blurted out: "It can't be him, he ...... with that man"

"It's not the same size, is it?" Rui worried.

She immediately smiled at Zheng Laohan and said coquettishly, "Am I good-looking?" ”

I saw that Zheng Laohan's eyes suddenly became extremely vicious! With his hand, he flicked the dementor stick hard, and the force was so great that even Rui Wei couldn't suppress it. I saw him stand up, his body was extremely vigorous and rushed towards Rui Wei, and as soon as he stretched out his hands, he was about to pinch Rui Wei's neck.

Rui Wei dodged his hands slightly, and then turned around and struck him hard in the back of the heart with his dementor stick, which caused him to fall into the mud at that time!

Rui Wei shouted at the stunned crowd next to him: "What do you see, hurry up!" ”

Only then did those people react and rushed up to restrain Zheng Laohan.

However, when the mayor stepped forward to inspect, he saw Zheng Laohan's eyes widen and asked in confusion, "What's wrong?" What's going on? ”

His figure seemed to shrink again in an instant, curling up and returning to his usual hunched posture.

All the people were amazed and confused when they saw such a spectacle, and they suddenly lost their opinions, and they all turned their eyes to Rui Wei.

Rui Wei looked at them calmly and said, "This person is the murderer. ”

It turned out that in addition to squatting and waiting in the pit these days, she also did a lot of investigations, and finally locked up the biggest suspicion of this Zheng Laohan who played the shift.

But the biggest challenge is still body shape. No matter how secretly he observed, Rui Wei did not find any signs of camouflage in the man's hunched back and lameness.

Only one evening, she accidentally saw a woman setting up a stall and a man who came to buy something to laugh. It happened that Zheng Laohan, who happened to be passing by, suddenly straightened his back at that moment and walked quickly into an alley. Only then did she realize that in the body of that old man Zheng, in addition to the soul of the honest watchman, there was also a soul of a demon.

What is more peculiar is that when the soul of the evil ghost occupies Zheng Laohan's body, he himself does not know it. When he was sober, he always thought that his back was hunched and his feet were lame, and it was only when his soul was temporarily suppressed that his true form and mobility were revealed.

And the condition for the evil ghost soul to be stimulated is the appearance of what he thinks is a **** woman.

Human nature is yang, and ghost nature is yin. At night, the yang energy that guards the mind will slowly weaken, and it is the best time for evil spirits to appear. That's why he would run out at night and strangle the women, and then hang them on the roof of the shed to pretend to commit suicide. And when an inconspicuous old man knocks on the door of the house, probably most people are not very wary.

When Rui Wei told all these truths, Zheng Laohan was completely stunned as if he had become a wooden clay sculpture. After a while, he covered his face and began to cry, crying as he said, "No wonder...... No wonder ......"

It turned out that he himself was somewhat aware of his own abnormality, in addition to often experiencing some amnesia at night, he had also found blood on his hands, and he himself did not know where this blood came from.

Everyone asked Rui Wei how to help Zheng Laohan exorcise the evil spirits, Rui Wei sighed and said: "The external disease is easy to treat, but the inner demon is difficult to get rid of." If the human heart is not weak with fear, how can evil spirits take advantage of it? No matter what the reason, you can only bear the sins you have done, otherwise how can you comfort the souls of those innocent dead in heaven? ”

Until now, she still sighs when she recalls that incident.

And I was also full of emotion. The situation she is talking about has another technical term in modern times, called "dual personality". And until now, it has remained an open question as to whether a person with a dual personality should be held accountable for committing a crime. Unexpectedly, in the Eastern Han Dynasty thousands of years ago, someone had already explained this phenomenon in another unique way.

But she was right, external diseases are easy to treat, and inner demons are difficult to get rid of. Sometimes this physical illness can be cured with a prescription, but the problem of people's hearts is not so simple.

As I was thinking, a young man came up to me, and unlike the others, his eyes flickered a little, his face was pale, his eyes were blue, and his features looked a little shadowy in the light of the flickering torches.

I looked at him suspiciously for a long time, asked a few random questions, and when he answered, his voice was also low, and he seemed a little absent-minded.

I leaned over and whispered to Rui Wei: "I will also do that trick of yours, which is the trick of recognizing ghosts." ”

She asked me curiously, "What do you mean?" ”

I pointed my hand at the young man and said, "He's the ghost hiding among these people!" ”
