What happened to my father in Yunnan thirty years ago? If my speculation is true, it was the rune that Ashuna drew on my face that saved my life by repelling the female ghost, then what happened to my father back then?

I am reminded of what Liu Zhen said, after the investigation in Yunnan 30 years ago, my father's research direction suddenly shifted to the field of metaphysics, and the reason for this is probably that my father met with some strange and bizarre things that could subvert his entire view of the world.

Suddenly, a rather bold guess crossed my mind – could it be that I was now experiencing something that my father had already experienced thirty years ago? Could it all be that history repeats itself?

I thought as I looked around the room of the long-faced young man, the room was not big, but it was very neat, even a little too neat, I subconsciously touched the walls of the room, but found that there was a thick layer of dust on it, which did not look like it was inhabited at all. I suddenly wondered in my heart, and I couldn't help but wonder if the long-faced young man named Ryazan really lived here, or, could this be Duan Yuwen's room?

I was full of doubts in my heart, and I said to myself, there are still so many things that have not been explained, but there is more and more fog in front of me. That Ryazan, what is the relationship between him and Duan Yuwen?

A young man in his twenties, living in an abandoned and dilapidated old apartment that is rumored to be haunted, this alone is already very strange, plus a Duan Yuwen ......

Thinking of this, I shook my head vigorously, and Liu Zhen's advice to me sounded in my heart - I always like to complicate problems, and sometimes, the simplest thinking is the closer I get to the truth of the puzzle.

Simple thinking, simple thinking, I muttered silently in my heart.

Thinking about it, I yelled, "Damn, it's so fucking easy, I don't have a clue at all!" No, anyway, I have to find Duan Yuwen! ”

I think of that Ryazan, his tone and actions seem to want to help me, and now that Liu Zhen has been seriously injured, it seems that the only thing I can count on at the moment is this long-faced guy.

If Ryazan hadn't pulled me out of the corridor and into the house just now, the appearance of the crazy woman might not have made a name for himself.

I went to the door and put my ear to the door, trying to hear what was going on outside. But after listening to it for a long time, except for a few cat meows and the sound of rustling that had not stopped from the beginning, there was no sound of anyone in the entire corridor, and I didn't know what was happening in the corridor at this moment.

I tentatively pushed the door open a crack, and found that the temperature in the corridor, which was still cold and bone-chilling, had returned to normal.

So, I emboldened myself and poked my head out the door to see what was going on outside the door.

As soon as I showed my head, the sight in front of me made my heart tighten, and goosebumps immediately appeared all over my body.

I saw that the gray corridor was filled with countless stray cats at some point. On closer inspection, the stray cats are large and small, black and gray, but there are no white cats.

I've known since I was a child that cats are afraid of water, and they use their tongues to wash their hair, but the cats in the whole corridor in front of me are all wet. The black fur knotted into strands and stuck upside down like a hedgehog's thorn.

Of course, what makes me shudder the most is that these cats are all very badly injured to varying degrees. Some cats had their eyes gouged out, some had mutilated ears, and some were even worse, their stomachs seemed to have been cut open with knives, and half of their intestines hung on the ground. Along with this, there is also an unpleasant fishy smell.

It is said that cats are the most independent and self-conscious animals, but these cats in front of me are like zombies, although they are huge, but they are all standing in the corridor facing my side. The little eyes with a faint green glow, and the slender pupils looked strange and abnormal in the corridor, and they shook and walked towards me, like tumblers, although they had no sense of balance, but they did not fall.

I followed the cats to the other side of the hallway and gasped. I saw the madwoman standing in the middle of the corridor with a candle, and the faint candlelight jumped and shone on her old face like a wood carving. Her eyes were glazed, her jaw seemed to be broken, her entire chin hung limply on her chest, and saliva hung from her sparse black teeth. And on her back, there was a huge black cat squatting, the black cat had only one eye, and at this moment it actually found me and screamed at me.

However, I did not feel afraid, because not far from my door, the Ryazan and Bu Jin were standing side by side, as if they were not afraid of the scene in front of them.

I looked at Bu Jin's delicate back, and unconsciously felt worried about her, after all, that crazy woman was too weird, far from being comparable to the strange ghost in the bathtub of the hotel.

I never thought that my worries would be unnecessary. The old cat on the crazy woman's back screamed, and Bu Jin suddenly realized that there might be movement behind him, so he turned his head suddenly.

The moment she turned around, when I looked at her, my first reaction was that she was not Long Bujin! Because, looking back, I couldn't see her facial features clearly, but there was a blood-red glow in those strange eyes, as if the whole pair of eyes were bleeding.

While I was staying there and not daring to move, it was Ryazan who rushed over again. This time, he grabbed me by the collar and shouted, "You bear child, didn't you let you stay in the house, go back!" ”

As he spoke, he kicked me into the room, slamming the door shut.

He kicked me very hard, and it hit me in the stomach, and my stomach churned, and I almost threw up, and my consciousness gradually became hazy.

I don't know how long it took for me to come to my senses. I thought I had probably been moved to a safe place by the Ryazan at the moment, and most of the movies have similar scenes. However, this is real life, and when I came to my senses, I found that I was still in that Ryazan room. It seems like I've only fainted for more than ten minutes.

However, at this time, Ryazan and Bu Jin were also in the house.

I sat up, rubbed my belly, and saw that Ryazan was sitting across from me and smirking at me.

"You're still fucking laughing? It's too dark for you kid. I complained.

"Blame me?" Ryazan said: "If it weren't for my kick, you wouldn't have caused any trouble." ”

I noticed that Ryazan's face was painted, as if he had been scratched by a cat, and then I looked at Bu Jin, who was standing silently on the side, although she was not injured, her face was bloodless.

Seeing this, I asked, "How?" That crazy woman was solved? ”

Ryazan nodded and said, "The solution is a solution, but it is not the crazy woman you said that is solved, but the old black cat." ”

"Cats?" I wondered, "Could it be that you two just fought a cat outside?" Besides, there were so many cats in the corridor at that time, which one are you talking about? ”

"Which one else, of course, is the cat lying on the madwoman's back."

"What's going on here, everything in this old apartment?" I couldn't help but ask.

Ryazan smiled, pointed at Bu Jin with his hand, and said: "That crazy woman, in the final analysis, is actually the same profession as this girl, and they are all grass ghost women." ”

"Grass ghost woman? What kind of profession is that? I asked.

Ryazan shook his head and said, "You are really stupid, the grass ghost woman is the so-called Gu woman, the Gu caster, the wizard, do you understand, child?" ”

"Don't call me a child, we don't have to be older than the other." I was dissatisfied.

"Can you still be bigger than me?" Ryazan was happy to lean forward and back together.

"Stop, stop! I said you're fucking sick, can you talk well, don't laugh, I'm sick when I see your big teeth! I said, "Tell me about the old apartment and the crazy woman." ”

"It's very simple, do you still need me to tell me?" Ryazan said, but as soon as he saw my expression, he felt that it was still necessary to talk to me about it, so he said, "You know what Gu is, right?" ”

I nodded and said, "Haven't you already asked this question just now?" ”

Ryazan nodded and said, "Gu is not necessarily a poisonous insect, any cat, dog, or even a person can become a Gu." The person who raised the Gu would put a group of poisonous insects in a closed vessel in advance, and after a few years, the poisonous insects would eat each other, and the last one left was Gu. In the same way, cat Gu was also produced in this way. ”

I was in a daze, and suddenly I had the feeling of listening to a high math class in college, and I shook my head and said, "I don't understand." ”

Ryazan sighed, as if feeling helpless at my stupidity, and continued: "Let me give you a reminder: think about this thirty-year-old apartment and the old cat in this apartment. ”

I thought about it for a while, and suddenly reacted, and hurriedly said, "Could it be that this whole apartment is the vessel for the crazy woman to raise Gu?" ”

After hearing this, Ryazan slapped his thigh and said: "Young man, you can be regarded as enlightened and have a future!" ”

I didn't have time to talk to him, so I hurriedly said, "Don't don't, I don't understand everything, you go on." ”

Ryazan continued: "Lou Dish Cat Gu, this is indeed a good idea, but when that crazy woman was doing this Gu, she was already old and frail, and she couldn't parry these old cats who were almost sperm. Ryazan sighed, and then said: "In other words, if that crazy woman can be more than ten years younger, then she will definitely be able to raise an invulnerable cat Gu." ”

"You mean, there is a flaw in this Gu technique?" I asked.

Ryazan replied: "It's not just a flaw, this Gu has not been cultivated at all!" About thirty years ago, this old woman fell in love with this old apartment, because it was originally a place where yin qi was extremely strong, and there was once a woman who hanged herself here, so the yin qi was even stronger. So, the crazy woman pretended to be the mother of the hanged girl, infiltrated the apartment, and used various methods to attract the stray cats of this town to gather here, and began her plan to raise Gu to make these stray cats kill each other. However, after all, cats are different from insects, they are not such easy creatures to control, and in the end, this crazy woman was devoured by Gu in the process of raising Gu, not only did she not control the old cat, but she was also controlled by the old cat. ”

"And what happened to the crazy woman now?" I asked.

"It's dead." Ryazan replied disdainfully: "The girl and I solved the old cat, and the other Gu cats turned against the owner and directly bit the crazy woman to death, and the souls of her and the woman who hanged herself were taken away by the girl." ”

"Accepted?" I was a little puzzled, and I thought of the scene where she and the ghost overlapped in the hotel, so I didn't ask too much, and said with emotion: "It turns out that the witch Gu is really so powerful, even the person who raises the Gu may encounter risks." ”

"Of course, haven't you heard that?" Ryazan said.

"What?"

"The Gu market is risky, and you must be cautious when entering the market."

I pour!

"What the fuck are you talking about!" I scolded, growing so big, it's the first time I've seen someone like him.

Ryazan no longer talked to me about the mountains, but said: "Forget it, I won't tease you, I'll take you to Duan Yuwen." ”

I was suddenly shocked, and I almost forgot about the business, so I nodded and said, "Yes, this matter is the most important." ”

However, I looked back at Liu Zhen, who was lying on the bed and still hadn't woken up, and Bu Jin, who was standing on the side with a bloodless face, thought about it, and said, "Otherwise, let's go again tomorrow morning, Liu Zhen hasn't woken up yet, and Bu Jin is ......."

Ryazan shook his head and said, "For now, besides, you can only go alone, that kid and this girl have to stay here." ”

Bu Jin seemed to understand Ryazan's words, and at this time turned his head and looked at Ryazan.

Ryazan ignored her, but said to me: "Go now, go quickly." ”

I nodded, but still had some doubts, Ryazan probably guessed my thoughts, and said: "Don't worry, this girl won't run, her thinking hasn't reached that level, you don't have to worry about your friends, now the Gu cats in the entire apartment building have run away, and there will be no other things." ”

Hearing him say this, I nodded reassuringly and followed him out of the old apartment. At this time, it was already one o'clock in the morning, there were hardly any pedestrians outside, the road was empty, and the clouds of the day had not fallen a drop of rain.

I asked Ryazan if the road was far away, and Ryazan said that it would take four or five minutes to walk.

Sure enough, after walking for less than five minutes, we came to a small inn, and Ryazan said to me: "This is it. ”

I was surprised, and said that this person has lived in Yunnan for so long, could it be that he has been living in a hotel all the time? That's a bit too expensive.

However, these are trivial things after all, and I don't bother to think about it, so I followed Ryazan's steps into the hotel. Walking to the door of a room, Ryazan knocked on the door, and after a while, a familiar voice came from inside: "Ryazan? ”

I was overjoyed, this was Master Duan's voice. Ryazan answered at the door, and after a while, Master Duan opened the locked door, and when I saw him, I found that I couldn't say a word about so many questions in my heart at this moment. Master Duan, no, now I should call him Duan Yuwen, he seems to have aged a lot these days.

Ryazan and I walked into the room together, and it was a very ordinary standard room, without any other superfluous furnishings.

Duan Yuwen sat the two of us on the bed, and he sat on a chair across from us.

Duan Yuwen didn't seem to be in a hurry, he locked the door and looked at his watch, as if he was about to tell a long story.

He pondered briefly for a while, and then said to me, "Peixi, if you can come to me tonight, it means that your father has decided to let you accept your brother's mission. ”

I just wanted to interject, but Duan Yuwen waved his hand, and then said: "You don't have to ask, I will explain the ins and outs of the matter to you clearly." It all started 30 years ago. ”

I nodded, signaling that I was ready to listen to the long story, but as soon as Yu Wen opened his mouth, he said something that surprised me - "Actually, the real mastermind of the Yunnan expedition thirty years ago was not your father, but Wang Chengbao. ”
