That night, Yuxuan was talking and talking, I don't know if she was too tired, she actually snuggled up to my chest and fell asleep, I couldn't bear to wake her up, so I lay her flat on the pillow, and then slowly lay down myself.

When we woke up the next day, we went out to have breakfast, and while eating, I asked Yuxuan, "Why is that Peking Opera mask man last night so powerful, as soon as he made a move, all those people left." ”

"I guess someone died many years ago!"

I think if the Peking Opera mask man is helping me, then it is just the same as what Uncle Trench Coat told me before, he said that there is a person in my secret who is helping me, and that person is not him or Yuxuan.

Thinking about it, I asked Yuxuan again: "The hundred-year-old curse on my body ended like this last night?" ”

"No, it's not that simple, Fusheng, we have one more thing to do next, and this thing is the key to contacting the curse, but I don't have a clue yet, let me tell you, a story behind this dilapidated taxi!"

When I was not drunk, I had already told me this question, but now that I learned it from Yuxuan's mouth, I listened patiently.

It is said that as early as the eve of liberation, there was a big boss whose car business failed, and he was poor, so in order to reincarnate, he actually found some capable people from the village, who really had real skills, and said that they wanted to invite ghosts, and in order to change their fate, they chose to take risks.

But there is a saying in the world that it is easy to invite God and it is difficult to send God, in fact, it is easier to invite ghosts and more difficult to send ghosts, and when the boss invites the ghosts back, business is improving, but all kinds of strange things gradually appear in his home.

The children and grandchildren died one after another, none of them lived past the age of 50, at first I thought it was not so serious, but Yuxuan told me that this is not enough, the descendants of the boss, know that the old taxi provoked ghosts, at that time, the capable people invited the ghosts here, in order to continue to drive this taxi.

In ancient times, there was a saying that when a person was about to die, he could sacrifice the life of a dog or cat to continue his life, but the life of a dog was equal to a person's day, someone knew that he was about to die, so he slaughtered a dog, he wanted to return to his hometown before he died, Chinese have a kind of idea of returning to the roots, so they thought of this method.

Now I finally understand why this taxi has to go down, it's all to continue the boss's descendants, and my own life, since I drove that taxi, I also inadvertently received that hundred years of curse.

After analyzing it, this is my situation now, Yuxuan told me that she will start investigating ways to break the curse, let me wait for her for a few days, and she will leave in the evening, and after sending her away, I will go back to the witch's hut alone, no mistake, now I really don't live in that shabby dormitory, after all, when Geng Simeng, these things of mine have been moved, and now I live with Yuxuan, the goddess.

I didn't know how many days she would come back, I lay on the bed alone, picked up my mobile phone and swiped WeChat, and the QQ tribe, hoping to see what interesting news to pass the time.

I watched for a while and there was no particularly funny news, I wanted to close my phone and squint, but I never thought that the moment before turning off the phone, I suddenly found that a WeChat news was particularly attractive, but I was stunned when I saw it, because there was a picture on it that was particularly disgusting, and a person who was burned black was pasted on top of the picture, rotting all over.

Then there were a few burned people on the picture, and I kept pulling it down, and I kept recurring back and forth behind such a picture, and there was even a sentence, 97 years, fire, 35 years old, and when I saw these charred people, I could even smell a mushy smell in it.

Then the next news shocked me even more, 13 years, Fuquan City, the taxi failed, the deceased pregnant woman, 28 years old, there is a picture on it, it is the appearance of the driver who hit and killed the pregnant woman!

This person doesn't have an avatar, I clicked on his information and looked at it, there is only one photo inside, this is a person, standing in front of a dry well, wearing a mask on his face to perform Peking Opera!!

I immediately friended him and sent him a message, but he didn't respond.

I zoomed in on his picture, but I found out that he was not the same person as the Facebook man.

When it comes to Facebook, I have to tell you about it, because people are not very familiar with it nowadays.

There are thousands of plays on the stage of Peking Opera, and countless flower-faced characters, and each character has its own set of painting methods, which is what we call face painting. The face mask seems colorful and varied, but in fact, it has its own set of rules, that is, each has its own spectrum. If you look at the lines and layout, it can be roughly divided into whole face, three tile faces, cross door faces, broken faces, crooked faces, white powder faces, eunuch faces and small flower faces. Although each of these faces is painted in different ways, they all start from the facial features and personality characteristics of the person, and use exaggeration, beautification, deformation, symbolism and other techniques to allude to praise and dispraise, and distinguish between good and evil, so that people can see at a glance. In terms of the basic painting method of the three tiles, that is, it is composed of the "three pieces" of eyebrows, eye sockets, and mouth sockets, and most of the other painting methods have evolved from these three tiles.

For example, Guan Yu's Danfeng eyes, lying silkworm eyebrows, Zhang Fei's leopard head and ringed eyes, Zhao Kuangyin's face like a heavy jujube, etc., all these descriptions have been absorbed by opera makeup, and their performance on the stage of Peking Opera is particularly obvious and prominent. In the process of creation and development of Peking Opera masks, there are many sources, and I will not tell them one by one here, but now that everyone understands the masks, their understanding of the story will be more effective.

Then I went to look at the picture of the dry well, in that photo, the face of the man with the Peking Opera mask was illuminated by an inch of moonlight-like light, not strong, probably taken at night, and his face was also white, the only difference was that in addition to the original two eyes, another pair of eyes were outlined on the mask.

Then it adds up to four eyes, and I have seen any Peking Opera masks because of the influence of my grandparents before, but I have never seen this one in front of me.

I waited online for a long time, but I didn't see him reply, so I had to lie in bed and sleep.

When I was in the taxi and continued to work, my mobile phone rang, parked on the side of the road, and I opened my phone to find that it was a message from Uncle Trench Coat: "At three o'clock in the morning, see you at the night snack shop in the flower garden apartment." ”

The night snack shop over there in the flower garden apartment is until 4 o'clock in the morning, we have more than an hour after we passed, it should be enough, after returning to the company, I drove my own Audi, came to the road, I feel that I am driving a private car is particularly cool!

Soon I came to the night snack shop in the flower garden apartment, in fact, I also passed by here just now, but I can't use my working hours for personal things, so I drove the taxi back to the company first, and then changed my car.

When I came to the supper shop, I saw that there were still some people eating here, I think all the people who came here now are gangsters or something, it's so late, and I saw that the uncle in the trench coat had already sat down, ordered the food and waited for me to come.

I sat down and asked, "Uncle, what are you looking for me?" ”

He didn't speak immediately, the waiter on one side came over and delivered food to a few people next to him, and after he left, Uncle Trench Coat whispered to me, "Recently, I've been looking for clues about the finger lantern." ”

I picked up a piece of beef from the table and put it in my mouth, and said, "And then?" ”

"Then I found out that the hundred-year-old curse on this taxi, not only you, but all the other drivers who drove this taxi have also been hit, which means that this taxi is a conspiracy from beginning to end."

I know about this, at the beginning Jinghui told me that the income here is high, and there are all kinds of benefits, I am not a saint, and I can't resist the temptation at once.

I don't want to tell Uncle Trench Coat for the time being, everything Yuxuan told me, I have to leave some room for me to see what this Uncle Trench Coat is lying.

After all, I know that this uncle in a trench coat has always been very capable of.

Then he picked up a piece of barbecued pork and put it in his mouth, but halfway there, his right hand stopped in the air and trembled: "Why do you suddenly have a shadow again?" ”

"Since I came back from Dragon Tiger Mountain, I have a shadow!" I replied very simply, but the trench coat took my hand and said, "Look under this light." ”

When I looked at it, I immediately felt that my fingers were abnormal, because the projection of that hand was so slender that it didn't look like my own at all, but like a woman or a child!

Why is this happening? When Uncle Trench Coat saw my surprised expression, he immediately told me, "This is not your projection at all!" ”

I couldn't help but laugh, how could it be, this is obviously a projection from my body, how could it not be mine! ”

"Then you're wrong, if you don't believe it, you can fall behind you now!"

Saying that, I really followed his approach and fell backwards, but it was okay not to do it, but I found that a shadow protruded in front of me, my chest was flat, why did the money in my eyes protrude, could it be said that this is a woman's shadow?

No matter how much I adjusted and turned around, I eventually found that the proportions were not right.

Because I couldn't bear this result, I couldn't help but shout, this scream made the people around me who were eating supper turn their heads, and the uncle in the trench coat quickly glared at me and told me: "Pay attention to your emotions, there are gangsters everywhere here, I know you are nervous, but you have to be careful!" ”

I tried to calm myself down, and then he said to me, "If sometimes you want to do something, figuratively take something, and you find that you can't do it, it proves that other souls are controlling your body!" ”
