Chapter 3: Father
This was not the first strange thing Lin Lin had experienced, he quickly came back to his senses, the first thing he did was to check the coffin, there was no trace of it being opened, Lin Lin breathed a sigh of relief, now he was at least sure that everything he had just experienced was just a dream.
There was another voice at the door, Lin Lin's heart tightened, and when he looked back, he saw that Lin Houpu was indeed here, and asked puzzledly: "Second uncle, why are you here." ”
"I'm worried about you, so come and have a look." Lin Houpu walked up to him, touched his wet forehead, and asked with a smile: "I'm used to blowing air conditioners in big cities, and when I come back, is it heated like this?" ”
Lin Lin didn't know how to answer, Lin Houpu glanced at the coffin and said, "I'll guard it for you in the middle of the night, you go back to sleep." ”
Lin Lin naturally couldn't ask for it, but when he saw that it was so dark outside, he was really frightened by the elusive female ghost, and he was really a little scared to let him walk home at night alone, so he said, "I...... I'd better stay with you. ”
Lin Houpu didn't refuse, the two of them sat in the ancestral hall until dawn, and when it was dawn, Lin Fangzheng came over to change shifts, and the two of them went home and fell asleep.
When Lin Lin woke up, the sun was still shining, his stomach was already drumming, and it seemed that he had already eaten. He called the second uncle a few times, but no one responded at all, so he had to eat some food hastily, and went out to see his father in the ancestral hall.
Lin Lin knew that there must be a ghost as soon as he saw their expressions, so he walked over and asked with a smile, "Auntie, what are you talking about?" The two refused to say at first, but they couldn't stand Lin Lin's interrogation, and finally the fat aunt said nervously: "Xiaolin, it's not that the aunt is troublesome, we, we have seen someone sneaking outside your house several times, it's not that you are causing something outside, right?" ”
Lin Lin heard this, and hurriedly asked, "Auntie, do you see what that person looks like?" The fat aunt shook her head: "I didn't see it, I only saw that I was wearing black clothes." The two of them had a few words to tell him to be more careful, and hurried home.
The words of the two aunts made Lin Lin vigilant, although the person who went back to the ancestral hall last time didn't see his appearance clearly, he was also dressed in black, maybe he was a person. This person first turned over his grandfather's mourning hall, and then came to peep at his own home, Lin Lin thought to himself that this person might have come to his own home, but his family is an honest farmer, could it be that the second uncle provoked it when he was working outside?
Lin Lin thought nonsense all the way, and arrived at the door of the ancestral hall, and before he entered, he heard the voice of the second uncle: "Don't touch him, I'll take care of it alone." Lin Lin was stunned for a moment, and saw the second uncle walk out with an angry face.
Lin Houpu glanced at him and left without looking back. Lin Lin was curious who the second uncle was angry with, and when he walked into the ancestral hall, he saw that only his father was sitting on the mat alone, with his eyes closed and he didn't know what he was thinking.
"Dad." Lin Lin walked over and called him, Lin Fangzheng glanced up at him, just "um". Lin Lin wanted to ask the second uncle what he was angry about, but when he looked like this, he didn't know how to speak, so he had to put incense on his grandfather and left silently.
Lin Lin arrived home all the way with his thoughts, but the courtyard door was open, he remembered that he closed the door when he left, could it be that the second uncle came back. Lin Lin called the second uncle a few times, but there was no response, he cautiously approached the yard, pushed open the door and entered the house, only to see that the house had been turned into a mess, Lin Lin couldn't help it at all this time, and immediately went to the ancestral hall to call his father back.
When Lin Fangzheng arrived home, he saw that his home was in a mess, although he didn't say anything, Lin Lin could still see that his face was extremely ugly, but he was just holding back.
There was movement outside the door, and the second uncle also walked back, but when he saw the scene at home, he didn't feel strange at all, and he didn't even ask anything, the two brothers looked at each other, and didn't even say a word.
The atmosphere was very embarrassing, no matter how stupid Lin was, he could see that his father and second uncle must know something, whether it was the last time in the ancestral hall or this time, they didn't show a little surprise, as if they had known that something like this would happen.
In the end, Lin Fangzheng broke the silence and said to Lin Lin: "You tidy up your home." After speaking, he walked out with Lin Houpu, as if he wanted to say something confidential, although Lin Lin was very curious, he still dispelled the idea of eavesdropping after him. He tidied up the house and waited until the evening for his father and second uncle to come home, but both of them seemed to be very unhappy, and went into their house without saying a word.
Lin Lin was lying in his room, thinking about all the strange things that had happened in the past two days, his father and second uncle must know the details, but neither of them would say anything, and he didn't know how to ask them, this was what made Lin Lin the most entangled.
He rummaged through and couldn't speak, and suddenly remembered that the two aunts said that someone was peeping into his house during the day, and he didn't know what to think, so he suddenly got up and looked at the yard through the window. Don't look at it, don't worry, this look almost scared off half of his soul, isn't it the white-clothed female ghost who has been pestering him in the courtyard, Lin Lin desperately covered his mouth, so that he didn't make a sound.
The female ghost was originally wandering in the courtyard, but at this time, she suddenly turned around and looked in the direction of Lin Lin.
Lin Lin originally thought that he would be scared to death if he looked at it like this, but he didn't have it at all, although the female ghost was pale, she didn't have that kind of horror, one person and one ghost looked at each other, and I don't know why, Lin Lin actually felt the sadness in her eyes, and she wasn't so scared.
Since he was no longer afraid, Lin Lin's courage was also surprisingly great, and he opened the door and walked out of the room to the courtyard, but the female ghost was gone. Lin Lin was about to go back, but found that his father was already standing at the door.
Before Lin Lin could speak, Lin Fangzheng pulled him up and said, "Follow me." Lin Lin didn't know where to go, but the direction in which the two of them walked was the ancestral hall. Although it was originally said that their family was going to guard the spirit, Lin Fangzheng and Lin Houpu were angry, and Lin Lin didn't dare to go anymore alone, so there was actually no one to keep the spirit today.
When the two of them arrived at the ancestral hall, Lin Lin was still a little scared when he saw the black coffin, Lin Fangzheng didn't notice his thoughts at all, and pulled him to sit down next to the mat. The two fathers and sons sat opposite each other like this, the atmosphere was a little awkward, Lin Lin really couldn't bear it, so he asked, "Dad, what's wrong." ”
Lin Fangzheng suddenly looked at his eyes carefully and said, "The swelling of the eyes has not completely disappeared. ”
Lin Lin was in a fog when he heard this, and he didn't know what his father meant by this, so he had to nod vaguely.
"Originally, your second uncle didn't agree to tell you about this, but in the end, we each took a step back." Lin Fangzheng said solemnly, "Do you believe that there are ghosts in the world?" ”
"I ......" If it had been before, Lin Lin would have been a staunch atheist, but the strange events that had happened in the past two days had seriously destroyed his faith, "I believe." ”
Lin Fangzheng lit a cigarette and said, "It seems that your grandfather's eyes opened for you are still somewhat useful." Lin Lin was even more confused by what his father said, and he couldn't understand what he was talking about. Lin Fangzheng continued: "Otherwise, why do you think you would cry for an afternoon that time, it was your grandfather who took this opportunity to open your heavenly eyes." ”
"Sky Eye?" Lin Lin spit out words that only appear in this TV series. Lin Fangzheng nodded and said, "Yes, Tianyan Pupil Technique, originally we didn't plan to tell you about it, but your grandfather opened the Tianyan for you, and I knew that he was already planning to entrust everything to you, so I decided to tell you these things." ”
"Wait...... I don't understand what opens the eyes of heaven and what entrusts me. Lin Lin was completely crazy, his father, who usually seemed to be just an honest farmer, suddenly said such lofty words to him, and he couldn't accept it for a while.
Lin Fangzheng rarely revealed a hint of a smile: "I know you don't understand for a while, you listen to me tell you slowly." In fact, your grandfather, me and the second uncle, are not ordinary people, I and your grandfather are in Linjiazhuang, we are waiting, and your second uncle is not really doing business outside, our kind of people, in the line of Mr. Yin and Yang, are called pupil magicians, this kind of pupil is inherited by blood, and the acquired cultivation cannot come, your grandfather is a very powerful pupil magician, this day the eye pupil is divided into three classes, psychic eye, yin and yang eye and reincarnation eye, it is said that your grandfather has reached the state of reincarnation eye. ”
Lin Fangzheng paused when he said this, and then said: "So last time you were in the ancestral hall, your grandfather's illusion was also broken by the pupil technique. ”
Lin Lin thought about it, there was really such a thing, that time he looked back and got everything done, that was he thought it was a coincidence, it turned out to be really his own eyes, but what was the matter with that female ghost, could it be that he was also a fantasy laid by his grandfather, so he asked: "Then, is that female ghost also made by grandpa?" ”
Lin Fangzheng shook his head: "That female ghost is very deep, but she has never been evil in Linjia Village, I don't think even your grandfather wants to provoke, that time I saw that she had no malice, but it was like breaking into the illusion to save you." ”
"Help me?" Hearing him say this, Lin Lin felt even more incredible, he was not familiar with the female ghost, what could he save.
Lin Fangzheng touched the back of Lin Lin's neck and said, "She left a ghost aura on you, so that she can find you wherever you go, it seems that she really likes you very much." ”
If it were a person, Lin Lin might still feel happy, but the other party was a female ghost, and he couldn't be happy, but hearing his father say this made his scalp tingle, and he broke out in a cold sweat.
