Thinking of this, I couldn't stay any longer, so I hurried to ask Qin Yiheng for verification.

He kept staring at the top of the umbrella, I patted him, he came back to his senses, listened to me finish speaking, hehe, and told me: "Indoor umbrella will not attract ghosts, but there are many folk sayings that children will not grow tall when they play umbrellas indoors; When a woman has an umbrella indoors, the house will leak rain; Men with umbrellas indoors will be bald. ”

Of course, these are just some folk statements, and no one can verify whether there will be such consequences in the end. However, in his experience, it cannot be taken seriously. There is no necessary connection between the so-called umbrella indoors to attract ghosts. The appearance of this statement is because ghosts usually like corners or shady places, and people play umbrellas indoors, and the yang energy of people under the umbrella will be covered.

This umbrella, since ancient times is a very heavy yin object, many places have customs, the umbrella is not at home for a year, must choose a sunny day in the middle of the year to take out the umbrella to dry, in order to be afraid of any filth to hide in the umbrella, after a long time to the family to cause trouble, this is called "drying basket" in the art, simply put, it is to put the family similar to the umbrella and the like, a lot of perennial sunshine things out of the sun to dry. Earlier, when the deceased in some places went out for funeral, even if it was not raining, a relative of the deceased would be specially selected to play a black umbrella at the position of the head of the body on the coffin, and accompany the funeral procession to the burial place. It is said that this is to help the deceased block the sunlight, so that the soul of the deceased can not be flashed, and then have a good look at this world. Because the bodies that were buried in the coffins were all lying down, and their eyes were facing the sun. After the implementation of cremation, this gradually did not have the opportunity to be applied, and no one knows about it now.

Although Qin Yiheng spoke clearly, I still felt foggy after listening to it. What does this umbrella mean? When I asked again, he waved his hand and reached for the top of the umbrella. He pressed the umbrella so low that I couldn't see what he was trying to touch, but I could guess that he was going to uncover the piece that was stuck inside the umbrella.

Sure enough, after a few tinkering sessions, he took out the piece and put it in his hand to examine it. I looked down and saw that it was really a piece of plasticine, but there was something stuck to the other side of the plastic. When I looked closely, I had a cold war, and it turned out to be a human back molar, apparently specially glued to the umbrella with plastic.

What does that mean? This tooth is clearly an adult tooth, not a baby tooth that has been replaced by a child. In addition, even if it is a baby tooth, I have heard of throwing the lower teeth of the replaced baby teeth high and burying the upper teeth, and it is said that after doing this, the child will not grow buckteeth, and I have never heard of sticking the teeth to the top of the umbrella!

Thinking about it, I reached out and removed the piece of plaster from inside my umbrella. Behind this piece of mine is also a posterior molar. I looked at Qin Yiheng, who was also wondering at that tooth. After a while, he suddenly let out an "ah" and shouted, "Find!" Find out! There are tooth marks in this house! ”

When he shouted like that, I was startled. At first, I didn't hear clearly, and I thought something was coming in the house, so I quickly turned around and looked around, but I didn't see anything. When he turned around, he saw that Qin Yiheng was already moving around the room at a rapid pace, and after taking a few steps, he leaned down, as if he was looking for something.

I followed him and found out that he was looking at the furniture in the house. He looked at it very carefully, not letting go of the corners of each piece, and after reading one, he quickly went to look at the other, as if he was in a hurry.

When I asked him what it was for, he pointed to the furniture on the other side of the room and told me to check it out, "If you find any special bump marks on the furniture, especially tooth marks, tell me immediately." ”

I'm very helpless, I make a fuss in this house, and I can gnaw on furniture? But is it so nervous? Or was the tooth mark he was looking for human? This is not a mental hospital, who doesn't have trouble grinding their teeth in furniture at home, I want to ask clearly, but Qin Yiheng keeps urging me. I had no choice but to lean down and start looking at piece of furniture as he did.

The age of these furniture does not look very long, maybe it is good maintenance, anyway, I have not studied antique wooden furniture, I can't see whether it is good or bad. There are some small bump marks on it, but they are not obvious, and I will report them to Qin Yiheng truthfully one by one. He came over and looked at it twice, and both shook his head and told me to keep looking.

The two of them looked for more than ten minutes, and I was tired enough, not because I was tired from looking at the furniture, but because I was holding an umbrella in my hand, and my arm was already a little numb. We searched the furniture in the living room, but we didn't find any tooth marks. Qin Yiheng was unwilling, and said that he would go to another room to find it, and after speaking, he entered another room.

To be honest, if I were to find it alone, I still felt a little uncertain. Originally, the house was very evil, and with such a large area, it was too late to take care of each other if something happened. I chose Qin Yiheng's next room to check. This room is not big, and if you look at the furnishings, it should be a tea room, which is indeed quite in line with the old man's hobbies. I searched around, but there was not much furniture in the house itself, but it was easy to see, and I didn't find any tooth marks, not even bumping marks.

Just as I was about to go to another room to look, I heard Qin Yiheng cough a few times. There were just the two of us in the house, and in the dead of night, his coughs sounded very loud. I still wanted to care about him, but before I could open my mouth, I heard him "ah", as if surprised, and then there was no movement.

I pricked up my ears and listened for a few more seconds, but there was no sound from his side. I stood there and struggled, afraid that something would happen to him, and I was worried that something would happen to me, and the two of them walked together, and called out his name, but he didn't answer, but heard me as if he had knocked the floor with the tip of his shoe.

When I heard his response, I felt uneasy. It is said that although this foot lifting is a small action, it is not difficult to open his mouth, could it be that he can't make a sound when he encounters something?

I suddenly realized that the movement on his side just now should not be the tip of his shoe hitting the floor.

This time we came out wearing a pair of New Balance brand jogging shoes, I also have a few pairs of that kind of shoes, the soles are very soft, and although they can make a movement when they hit the floor, they are not as loud as they were just now. I see, it seems to be poking the floor with the tip of an umbrella. Damn, didn't that person explain that he had to carry an umbrella in the house? Qin Yiheng put the umbrella away?

I couldn't wait any longer, so I ran to the door of his room, and saw him standing by the wall, and I didn't know what Lu Dao was looking at, so I relaxed and went in to see what he was doing.

Qin Yiheng's umbrella had already been put away and placed next to him. I saw that he was fascinated, and I didn't shoot him, but stood behind and watched with him. This house was supposed to be a study before, and one of the walls in the house was a bookshelf pulled directly out of the wall, but there was no book on the shelf, and a lot of dust had fallen.

Qin Yiheng estimated that he would only cough when he blew the dust through his mouth when he checked it just now, and he would only cough when he was choked.

I searched with my eyes, but I didn't see anything. Seeing that he had put the umbrella away, it was estimated that there was no danger, so I put the umbrella down, lit a cigarette, and asked him if he had found a tooth mark.

He turned around, "hmm", reached out and pointed to the bookcase, and moved out of the way for me to see. When I looked over, there were still no tooth marks, but the dust had been cleared out of the place he was pointing at, and it looked like he had just written on the dust with his fingers.

When I got closer, I could see that it was written in four traditional characters, and it sounded like a Japanese name. I wondered, so I asked him what he meant by writing this.

Qin Yiheng shook his head, lit a cigarette, and said, "I didn't write this word, I just traced it with my fingers just now." These marks were originally on the bookshelf, and it seems that there must have been an object placed here before, and someone took it away after a long time, so the dust here is lighter than other places. ”

I tried to imagine what it was, and I guessed that it should be an ornament carved from a calligraphy font, and it should not be worth much. Otherwise, this thing wouldn't have been left here until the dust had fallen around it before someone remembered to take it away.

I asked Qin Yiheng, I was looking for a tooth mark just now, why can't I get along with this thing now, and say that the tooth mark is good?

He said, "There's something wrong with this thing." So saying, he told me to stretch out my hand and write a word on my palm. He wrote this word very slowly, and I looked at it with my eyes, so it was easy to distinguish that he wrote the word "room". After writing, he asked me if I had figured out anything.

I thought about it for a few seconds before I suddenly woke up, "all people, one household", isn't this just the word "house"? Co-authoring these four characters is not a Japanese name, but an anagram? What's so special about that?

I took a puff of cigarette and asked Qin Yiheng what he meant. Literally, the old man in the hat was a house slave? Use this thing to remind yourself to pay off your mortgage or what? Or does this thing mean something else? The word "room" won't be the "house" Wanjin, right?

Qin Yiheng looked at the bookshelf thoughtfully, took out his mobile phone and took a picture of those words, then shook his head at me, walked to the door of this study, reached out and touched the edge of the door frame a few times, as if he had picked up something from the ground, walked back and spread out his palm for me to see.

There are two teeth in his palm, but, unlike what he found on the umbrella before, these two are front teeth, which are estimated to be a certain number of years, and the color of the teeth is very dark, and I don't know if it is because of oxidation or because the owner of the tooth did not like to brush his teeth before.

I didn't dare to pick it up with my hands, even if this thing wasn't evil, it felt a little disgusting to look at. I asked him directly, "Did you find this thing on a door frame?" ”

Qin Yiheng nodded and told me, "This is called 'Messy Teeth'." The so-called messy teeth, literally understood as the meaning of crooked teeth, but it also contains a layer of fornication. In metaphysics, there are two kinds of disordered teeth, one is on women's bodies. Legend has it that in the old days, when some women who did not abide by women's morals and cheated on them died, their teeth would be pulled out and hung on the torii of the old street with a thread, which was said to prevent the appearance of people who also did not abide by women's morals in the family members. Because of gravity, no matter how much the teeth hanging on the torii swing, they will go down vertically at the end, which is also the meaning of "down".

Moreover, it has also been recorded in some boudoir secret techniques that it will be natural to hide this kind of messy teeth under the dinner table at home and eat with the man you want to seduc. In many brothels in ancient times, prostitutes would generally hide a messy tooth in their room in order to better attract business. Most of the mess was also left behind by prostitutes in the brothel. Generally, before the prostitute died, she would give it to others as a unique gift, which shows that the prostitute had a high status in the hearts of prostitutes at that time.

"However, no one can say whether this messy tooth is useful or not, because they have already been invited to the boudoir for dinner, and whether they go to bed or not has little to do with the messy teeth."

When Qin Yiheng said this, he paused, snuffed out the cigarette butt, and continued:

"The second type of tooth is on the man. This kind of disorder is not the disorder of fornication, but the disorder of rebellion. Legend has it that this kind of tooth can only be found in the mouths of generals who have rebelled. The number of this rebellion is more or less, even if there are many people, there are few generals, so this kind of chaotic teeth are usually difficult to find, because after the rebellion was suppressed, these generals not only had to be executed by Ling Chi, but also the teeth in their mouths had to be pulled out one by one, except for the front teeth were hidden on the gate of the capital, and the remaining teeth were sent to military important places all over the country and buried in the city, but few people knew exactly where they were buried. And the reason for burying the messy teeth is similar to the woman's messy teeth, all to prevent such things from happening in the future. This is no longer part of metaphysics, but a complete superstition, which can only be taken as a psychological consolation, otherwise there will not be so many changes in Chinese dynasties. ”

When he said this, I started to get confused, what does this have to do with this house? He interjected and asked. Qin Yiheng laughed, squeezed me right two sentences of IQ, and told me that these messy teeth are probably not from the mouth of the so-called rebel general, but from the mouth of a person who betrayed the old man in a hat! The old man should know that this kind of game has no effect, so his purpose is obvious, that is, to kill chickens and make an example of monkeys.

Qin Yiheng glanced out of the door, as if he was worried about something, his voice lowered, and said Those umbrellas, he may understand what they mean, that is, they are used to block the light, but the purpose of blocking the light is not because he is afraid of the light, but to hide the shadow! The people who come to this house, there are people who have no shadow!
