Chapter Eighty-Five: There Are Two
"Mother-in-law, get out of the car, we're here." Li Bai parked the car on the side of the road and turned around and said.
The two got out of the car and walked into the alley of the barbershop, and Granny Meng had just walked to the mouth of the alley, when she suddenly stopped and looked to the right. Li Bai saw that she was stunned in place, and also looked in the direction she was looking, but there was nothing strange in the street where cars were coming, so he asked, "Mother-in-law, what's wrong?" ”
"What's that place over there?" Granny Meng asked, pointing to her right.
Li Bai stood on tiptoe and looked, the roadside was full of shops facing the street, and beyond that was an intersection.
"Which do you mean?" Li Bai didn't understand.
"It's on the edge of the intersection." Granny Meng still pointed.
Li Bai got the accurate instructions and looked at it again, only then did he have to be surprised by Granny Meng's eyes, and he could even see clearly the place opposite the intersection, which was a trendy barber shop.
"Mother-in-law, your eyes are so good, it's also a barber shop, but it's not the one we're going to, we're going to be in here, it's a small one." Li Bai said.
Granny Meng nodded slowly and withdrew her gaze, in fact, with her presbyopia, where could she see so far away, but she vaguely felt a strange aura wafting over there, which made her curious.
"Let's go, mother-in-law, it's too cold outside." Li Bai stomped his feet and pulled Granny Meng inside.
"This alley is about to be demolished, there are many empty houses, and there are very few people living in them." Li Bai introduced, "Two women were kidnapped here two days ago, one died, and the other has not been found. ”
Granny Meng just listened quietly and did not respond. The two turned a corner and came to the barber shop, Li Bai pointed to the door of the barber shop and said, "This is their barber shop, I saw the old man here when I came last time, and he also cut my hair." ”
Granny Meng looked at the small barbershop. He smiled and said, "Then you are so lucky, in my impression, it seems that no one has ever shaved the ghost's hair." Do you know 'ghost shaved head'? ”
"Don't explain, I don't really want to hear it, I didn't know that old man was a ghost at the time, otherwise I wouldn't dare to let him cut it for me if I had ten guts." Li Bai said. He pulled Granny Meng and continued to walk inside.
Coming to the innermost door, Li Bai stood still and said, "Oh, this is Lao Zhoutou's house." ”
Granny Meng glanced at it and said lightly: "There is a sense of injustice." ”
"Right? So Lao Zhoutou said that his father had always complained about his wife and forced him to become mentally ill. Li Bai said and pushed the door, but the door was not closed, and it opened quietly.
"Uncle Zhou! Uncle Zhou! At home? Li Bai shouted towards the courtyard.
Granny Meng followed him in, looking around with deep eyes. Zhou Ding heard someone shouting in the house. hurriedly ran out, saw that it was Granny Meng, hurriedly greeted her, and saw Li Bai next to her, and immediately stood hesitantly.
When Li Bai saw it, he couldn't cry or laugh a little, and said, "Uncle Zhou, don't be afraid. I'm already well, I'm Li Bai. It's not the female ghost from last night. ”
"You're totally well?" Zhou Ding asked with a stammer.
Li Bai smiled helplessly: "I don't believe you asked Granny Meng." ”
Granny Meng nodded and said, "Now he is not the focus, the focus is on your wife." ”
"Yes, yes, yes." Zhou Ding finally put his mind at ease after hearing this, and led the two into the house.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw the incense burner facing the door and the terrifying statue of Zhong Kui. Granny Meng asked, "Who put this out?" ”
"This is what I asked a master before, and he taught me. It is said that it is for Zhong Kui, which can block ghosts. Zhou Ding said reverently.
Granny Meng smiled contemptuously and said, "Then everyone who is a ghost in the world is offering Zhong Kui, doesn't it make Zhong Kui tired?" ”
Li Bai couldn't help but laugh beside him, but Zhou Ding was at a loss. Say: "You mean it's useless?" ”
"Withdraw, this is not a temple, why are you burning so much incense? The room is full of choking, aren't you afraid of poisoning? After Granny Meng finished speaking, she went to the back room.
Li Bai patted Zhou Ding's shoulder, but Zhou Ding looked distressed, and said with a bitter face: "I gave the master three thousand yuan." ”
Li Bai pursed his lips and smiled, and said, "I guess only you will be fooled." ”
"She's in this room, isn't she?" Granny Meng pointed to the bedroom door and said.
"Yes, yes, yes, sleeping in it, it's been okay for the past two days, it's not too noisy, and I lay down and slept after eating." Zhou Ding walked over and said.
Granny Meng nodded and said, "Then don't wake her up, let's talk about ours." ”
The three of them came to the room next to the bedroom, which was the room with yellow rune paper pasted on all four walls, Granny Meng looked at the wall, Zhou Ding was stunned, hurriedly ran over to tear off the rune paper, and said embarrassedly: "This thing doesn't work, right?" I listen to the master, and I do what the master says. ”
Granny Meng waved her hand and said, "Don't call me master, it sounds like it's very powerful, I'm just an ordinary old lady who can order 'home remedies'." Also, don't blindly believe in any so-called masters in the future, they are all lies, and the gentleman who really helps people solve difficulties does not charge money, which is called accumulating virtue. ”
"Remember, remember, master, no, the old sister is really different from those who cheat money, and her temperament is at a higher level." Zhou Ding hurriedly said.
Li Bai sat next to him and smiled secretly in his heart: I will definitely be quite good at sycophants this week.
"Okay, let's get down to business, listen to Xiaobai, your wife's mental problem has been a long time?" Granny Meng asked.
Zhou Ding nodded vigorously, as if he was about to pour out his stomach of bitter water, and said, "Yes! Since my father died, my wife has been in a bit of a trance, and it always says that my father came back to him and wanted her life, and finally forced her to have a nervous breakdown. In fact, I didn't blame my wife at the beginning, I didn't mean it."
"Needless to say, Xiaobai probably told me. Do you think that your wife is like this because your father is right? Granny Meng stared at Zhou Ding and said.
"Isn't it?" Zhou Ding saw Granny Meng looking at him and asked unexpectedly.
Granny Meng shook her head: "I don't think so." ”
"Granny Meng, what do you think?" Hearing that Granny Meng had a different opinion, Li Bai hurriedly asked.
"As soon as I entered, I sensed that there were two friends in this house, and although I don't know which one was your father, he should be one of them, but I didn't feel any injustice on his part. As for the other one, he was really wronged. ”
"You mean there are two ghosts in this house?!" Li Bai was taken aback, and looked at Zhou Ding, who was also surprised, the latter also never expected that under the influence of his wife before, he had always felt that his father was "punishing" them, but now after listening to Granny Meng's words, it was like a heavy punch on his chest.
