Chapter 50: Cover Cinnabar
In a moment, the sound was gone, and so was the force that was clasping my neck. I opened my mouth and coughed a few dry coughs, this kind of cough was not comfortable at all, and when I coughed, it hurt very much.
I turned on the flashlight and saw the incense stalk I was tied to the wall. It was obviously the wall, but my stalk was already at least three or four centimeters into the wall. Under normal circumstances, how can a stalk be inserted? When I stabbed it down just now, it felt the same as being stuck in a melon.
I exhaled secretly, go to sleep, and wake up to talk about big things! Break off the incense stem, or when you turn over, it will pierce me.
There was nothing to say all night, and when it was dawn, they all went to class, and I was still in bed. Liang En is still doglegged, and I put two buns and a cup of soy milk on the windowsill first. By the time I went downstairs after I had eaten, it was already time to close the door to the dormitory.
Uncle Dormitory greeted me: "Yo, this transfer from Mingnan High School is also late and absent from class?" I laughed and said, "I fell asleep in the middle of the night last night." ”
When I got out of the dormitory, I was not in a hurry to go to the teaching building, but walked around the dormitory and found a public phone booth.
In this era, mobile phones are popular, and 80% of high school students have mobile phones. Of course, the school does not allow mobile phones to come, it is all secret. And on the side of the teaching building, during the exam, the device that shields the signal will be turned on. This kind of public phone booth was popular a few years ago, and no one uses it now, and it has long been attached to a thick layer of dust.
I stood in a phone booth and looked at the location. Exercise! It's really yin. This location is just behind the girls' dormitory, China is in the northern hemisphere, and the sun always skews south, so there is always a small area in the shadow of the house where the sun does not shine. (I'm not very good at geography, but I'm sure there is.) When I was studying, the back of the dormitory was covered with moss. The sun never shines. )
And that phone booth is in a place where the sun never shines. I picked up the earpiece, and I could still hear the sound of "ticking" inside, and it was still usable! I didn't have a phone card either, and I couldn't make a call, so I hesitated for a moment and put down the receiver.
Pulled a wet tissue from his leg bag to wipe the dust off his hands. Taking a step back, I found something suspicious. This phone booth has a red circle on the ground with a diameter of one meter, enclosing the entire phone booth.
This is not surprising, as many old phone booths have been abandoned. For safety reasons, a red circle will be drawn on the ground to remind others not to use it, which is not safe.
Usually such circles are painted by telecommunications people with red paint, but in the phone booth at school, I have never found this thing painted in the phone booth.
I squatted down, picked up a small pebble from the side, and drew the red circle, and some red particles were stained on the stone, and my heart sank! This...... Not red paint, but cinnabar!
Cinnabar instead of paint is nothing new. Master told me that in the old days, in the countryside, the doors of the houses would be painted red. But paint wood paint or something, can't afford it. And they used cinnabar and mixed the oil to brush it. It can ward off evil spirits and save money. Even now, in some places, cinnabar is also used.
If there is such a red cinnabar circle somewhere else, I won't care, but this phone booth! If there is cinnabar, then it is impossible for him to get out.
I pulled out the compass and it didn't change. And when I took off the earpiece, the hands in the Tianchi began to shake unsteadily. I can't rely on that to determine whether the magnetic field generated by the phone or something else. After hesitating for a while, I packed my things and went up the dirt slope.
Whether the boy was in the phone booth or not, I'm going to try to see it. I flattened the ground on the dirt slope with the tarpaulin that had kept the boy's body out of the sun, and then dug through the pit that had been filled.
At this time, the sun was already very strong, and in order not to destroy the residual smell in the soil, I had to find something to build a shed to block the sun.
Fortunately, this is a construction site, what wood, bamboo poles, a lot of rags.
When Tao Jing called me, my shed had just been built. "Hey, phew, what's going on?"
"English class, you're the first boy to skip English class. Even the English teacher asked who the empty table was. ”
"! Lao Tzu almost died last night, and he still has a Mao class today. Let's deal with the ghost on the phone first. "When I'm tired and in a bad mood, I swear a little more.
When Tao Jing heard this, she immediately became excited: "Where are you?" Do you want to help? ”
"Yes! Come right here! Dirt slope here. Just where we dug up the bodies last time. ”
"There...... I ......"
"If you don't come, you're not my brother!" I hung up and was really tired. The sun is so big, I haven't worn the sun yet, so I'm building a shed here.
When Tao Jing came over, I had just excavated. I looked at her and said, "You won't help me with that little water, bring an umbrella." ”
"What do you want an umbrella for? It's not raining! ”
I was speechless, I forgot that Tao Jing was not a woman at all. She didn't have that awareness, and the umbrella could not only keep out the rain, but also the sun.
"What are you doing?" She asked.
I'm ripping up the dirt from the surface of the pit and digging up the dirt underneath with a stick of wood. The sand below is the same as the last time the body was dug up, with moisture, and it was quite easy to dig. I didn't talk too much nonsense to Tao Jing, dug up the sand, wrapped it in the rain cloth, and blocked it from direct sunlight, and then took her down the dirt slope with me.
The damp sand is very heavy, which is why I came to Tao Jing. It's a bit hard for me to get this sand through by myself. So she and I carried the rain cloth bag and got the sand to the phone booth.
She frowned and said, "Why do you have a phone booth here?" Who will call in this kind of corner? ”
I poured out the sand, brushed it with a twig so that it completely covered the red cinnabar ring, and said, "That's it, he'll come out on his own in the evening." Tao Jing, what about his home address information, I'll call his parents and bypass his parents to overtake him. ”
Tao Jing flipped out the small notebook and read a string of numbers. I used my mobile phone to dial out of the city, and Tao Jing also told me, "His mother's number." ”
The phone was connected, and I took a step forward, stood in the phone booth, in the red circle, and said, "Hey, Mommy, Mommy, it's really your Mom." Mom, I'm still in school, Mom, why don't you overdo me? I'm still in school, I'm so scared. Mom, go to the temple to overtake me, you must go, you must go! I don't want to be here alone, I want to get out of here. Mom, you must go, go to the temple to overtake me. ”
Hang up! Looking up, Tao Jing ...... Hiding in the corner of the dormitory, poking his head out and looking at me.
I stepped out of the circle on the ground and said, "What are you hiding there for?" ”
"You, you're demon-possessed!?"
"Attached to a fart? I told his parents directly, and his parents wouldn't believe it, only in this way, his parents would definitely go over. He can come out on his own, and his parents will go to overdo it, and this matter will be over. ”
Tao Jing moved out a little bit, and said suspiciously: "You really haven't been ghosted?" ”
I gave her a blank look and didn't want to speak. It happened that class was out of class in the morning at this time, so I took her and went directly to the cafeteria, saying, "In view of the fact that you also helped me just now, I will invite you to lunch." ”
The next day, the class was back to normal, and the girls were chatting and occasionally arguing with makeup. Xiao He also specially bought a cup of milk tea and said thank you. In this matter, I have worked hard for so many days, and only Xiao He and Tao Jing know how to do it. The others didn't even know that this had happened.
And the boy's parents came to school again and cried, and they also found me along the phone number and let me go to the office.
In the dean's office, the couple looked at me, and the dean scolded me, "What are you doing?" Why do you call to scare your parents? ”
"What? Teacher, what do you say? I blinked. Tsk, I'm so talented in acting, I'm just confused, so they can't ask anything, and they don't have a problem with me.
