Chapter 9: The Ghost Baby in the Bowl
"Then you didn't throw it away?" I thought I might as well throw it away?
"It's strange here, I've tried many methods, but I can't break them or throw them away. It's too evil. She showed a hint of helplessness as she spoke.
It's easy to understand if it can't be broken, but I wonder if I can't throw it away?
"Why can't you throw it away?"
"For example, if you throw it away today, you will wake up tomorrow and find it still in the store"
It's evil, I thought I'd tell her to show me the bowl. She didn't say no.
At first glance, this bowl looks ordinary, like it was from the seventies and eighties, and nothing else is special. After thinking about it for a long time, I still didn't have a clue.
I'm going to experience the magic of this bowl for myself, and if I want to solve it, I still need to see how this bowl came back.
I discussed it with her, and she didn't refuse.
"Okay" said she was about to close the door, and I left my phone in the store to charge it, and came back later to see if the pony had sent me a message.
After closing the door, she went to the back of the store and drove a car out. When I saw this car, I was a little surprised, this noodle restaurant is quite profitable.
After driving for a few minutes, I found a random place with few people and threw the bowl into the trash.
When everything was ready, I went back to the car and waited for the bowl to "go" back.
I smeared cow tears from my backpack on my eyelids to see if they were ghosts.
This time passed minute by minute, and this time was also sad, I asked what the proprietress's name was, and she said that her name was Lin Mengqiao.
Chatted for a while. It was slowly getting dark.
Looking at the time, it was already past ten o'clock in the evening. But there was still no movement in the bowl. Does it still have the spirituality to know that we are watching it?
After waiting a little longer, there was no one around. I focused on the trash can.
I don't know if I don't see it, but when I look at it, I see a black gas coming out of the trash can, and when it condenses, it becomes a baby who looks like he is only one or two years old. He stood next to the trash can and looked around.
A young face was full of evil nature, and his gaze was glazed. I know, it's a ghost. Ghost Baby!
Lin Mengqiao may have seen my expression and thought of something, but she didn't apply tears, of course she didn't know what it was.
"Would you like to put some on it," I asked, looking at her.
She struggled a little, but eventually insisted on seeing what a ghost was.
She applied it and looked slowly in the direction of the trash can. But she immediately showed surprise and fear.
"W-what is this?" She said to me in horror.
"Ghost!"
"Little master, is this a ghost?"
I was so stunned by her words that I thought she would be too scared to speak. I didn't expect her to be just taken aback for a moment.
"yes, don't move. I'll get out of the car and take a look," I said, opening the car door and quietly going down.
"Be careful," she called out to me.
I nodded, and when I opened the door, I collected my breath and slowly moved over.
The ghost baby grabbed the trash can and slowly climbed in, and at first glance, the little baby and the trash can were extremely incompatible together.
After a while, the ghost baby came out with a bowl in his hand, and of course, the bowl we threw in.
Seeing this, I immediately pulled out my peachwood sword from my backpack. The ghost baby really took the bowl and walked in the direction of Lin Mengqiao's shop.
I hurried after the ghost baby, who was not fast. Slowly. This ghost baby didn't do anything, he was just controlled. You can deal with it at any time.
It turned out that this little imp was doing the trick. I wanted to destroy this ghost baby with a peachwood sword. But after thinking about it for a while, I still don't think it's okay. He was just being used by others, if only I could send him to reincarnation. It's a good thing.
This little imp is definitely controlled, and if you want to send him to reincarnate, you can only find someone who controls him.
I just have to catch him, and the people behind this curtain will definitely come out. I thought I'd just wait for the ghost baby to send the bowl back first. I'll just take the bowl away when I get back. When the person behind the curtain feels it, he will naturally look for me.
I didn't catch up, just went back to Lin Mengqiao's car. She saw me come back.
"You're done?"
"It's settled"
I'm not bragging, just take the bowl with me tomorrow when I'm gone, and don't worry about anything else.
After Lin Mengqiao drove home. I asked her to give me the bowl, and of course she was willing, because the bowl affected her business. Now that someone has taken over, of course she's happy to do so.
Then she gave me a wad of money, which should have been about 5,000. I didn't refuse to put it away.
A few words at the end. I'm going back to the hotel to sleep.
When I got back to the hotel, I put the bowl on the table, and in order to prevent the ghost baby from taking it back again, I pressed the peachwood sword against the bowl.
I took a shower, turned my head upside down, and fell asleep.
There was no word all night, and when he got up the next day, the bowl was still there, and it seemed that the peachwood sword had worked and suppressed him in the bowl.
Breathe a sigh of relief, pack up your things, and check out. I'm going to buy a ticket. But it occurred to me that I had forgotten something.
After thinking about it for a while, I just couldn't think of a reason.
Put your mind down and buy your tickets. Fortunately, it was just in time, and it left immediately. I didn't have time to eat either. Thinking about eating on the train.
After waiting in the waiting room for a while, the train came. Get on the train and find your place to sit down.
The stuff on this train is really a pit. A dollar of bread sells for five dollars on top of this. But I couldn't help it, so I bought two to fill my stomach.
This sits and sits ready to look at the time. Only to find out that the phone was gone. No, I put Lin Mengqiao yesterday and forgot to take it.
I was so speechless to myself that I had forgotten such an important matter. No wonder I always felt like I didn't have anything with me before I got in the car.
This car has been gone for a long time, and I can't go back, so let's go home first. Come back and get it when you have time.
The week turned around until noon the next day, and we finally arrived in our town.
It's Friday, and the ponies should be out of school in the afternoon. I'm going to wait until the afternoon with the ponies and for my grandpa to pick us up.
Thinking of this, I waited for them to get out of school at a bubble tea shop in front of the school.
This time for drinking milk tea really passed quickly, and it would be afternoon in a while. I'm also expecting to wait for the ponies to come out.
But the school is almost finished, and the ponies haven't come out yet. I panicked. I thought to myself that wasn't true. How could it be true.
I tried to go in and find him, but the guard didn't let me in when he saw that I was young.
I walked to the fence behind the school, and I jumped on it. I'm amazed at how agile I am. I think it's because of the water.
Didn't think much of it. As soon as I arrived at school, I ran to the classroom of my class. But when I went in, I still didn't find anything. I'm starting to distrust myself, what's going on?
The dream couldn't be real, and I tried to comfort myself that I was going to go home and see.
When I got out of school, I took a motorbike and drove me to our village.
It's all too familiar to drive on the same road. Reminds me of my childhood. Perhaps, if the snake spirit didn't attack me that night, I might still be in the classroom right now.
After a while, I arrived at the entrance of the village, which was not far from my house. I was ready to get out of the car and walk back.
The entrance to the village was deserted as usual. The man who lived at the entrance of the village didn't say anything when he saw me.
Passing by Uncle Zhang's house, Uncle Zhang was a little surprised to see me. Then he returned to normal and greeted me warmly as usual.
"Uncle Zhang, what kind of expression did you have just now," I said, looking at him.
"Xiaomu, didn't you move out with your grandfather? Why do you come back? ”
"Who said that?"
"Your grandfather said that after seeing you go with a woman at noon that day, your grandfather also left in the afternoon, and when I asked him where he was going, he said that he would not live here. I said, why are you coming back? Still have something to take? ”
"Take it, take it. I'll come back and see the pony," I told him a perfunctory remark and prepared to go to the pony's house.
"Xiaomu, you have a fever. The pony is gone, you don't know? After you were gone for a few days, his parents came back and picked him up. ”
Bang! My brain exploded. What's going on? How come I don't know anything? Now I don't know where my grandfather has gone, I don't know where my master Xu Shidie has gone, and I don't know where the pony is gone.
A barrage of questions came at me. I can't even react to what is going on.
Was all this pre-arranged? It's only been a month, and I've experienced all the impossibilities in this world. I didn't even dare to think about it. Before I knew it, I returned home.
I don't know how long I sat there, but I slowly eased up. Now all I need to do is find them.
It is impossible with me. I can only go back to that mountain now to see if Xu Shidie has returned.
With this in mind, I closed the door and went to the entrance of the village to ask Uncle Zhang to take me to the town. Along the way, Uncle Zhang asked me something. I casually said a few perfunctory sentences.
When I got to town, I bought a ticket to the city. I'm going to go to the city to buy a train ticket back.
I don't know how she got to Lin Mengqiao's house, but when she saw me, she immediately went into the room and gave me my mobile phone.
"You think you don't want it" She looked excited, probably she was satisfied with the problem I solved for her.
I hurriedly turned on my phone and saw that there were several unread text messages on it. A few of them were sent by my classmates, asking where I had been. These grandsons, who usually bully me so much, now think of me?
Ignoring them, I flipped through them for a while, and I saw a message from the pony that had been sent to me more than ten days ago. It reads
"Brother Wen, where have you been, your grandfather hasn't been at home during this time. Tomorrow my parents will come to pick me up and take me to live in the city, and I may not see each other again. If you have time, come to my house today and we'll have a drink. ”
When I saw this message, I was silent, how could I not see it if there was no electricity in the mountains. I hated me for so long not knowing.
I called but couldn't get through. I can only hope that he will have a good time in the city.
After a casual chat with Lin Mengqiao, she may have seen me a little absent-minded. Without further ado, I cooked a bowl of noodles. She asked me where I was going and she gave me a ride, I thought about it and didn't refuse, it was really not convenient to take a taxi.
Didn't say anything along the way. I was worried about damaging her car, so I told her to stop at the bottom of the mountain.
After getting out of the car, I walked in front, and Lin Mengqiao followed behind. Maybe I'm in a bit of a hurry. It felt like walking for a while and you arrived at the cabin.
I didn't think much of it, and I just pushed the door in. But there was nothing, it was still the same as usual. I wanted to wait for Duoduo to come out in the evening, and I was asking her if Xu Shidie had come back in the past few days.
"Xiaomu, there is a note on this table" At this time, Lin Mengqiao came over with a piece of paper. When I saw it, I was immediately relieved. It was written on the paper
"I'm fine with Duoduo. See you soon. Xu Shidie"
