Chapter 14: The Ghost Blows Out the Lamp
The sky was all dark red, and the red ones were dripping blood.
This red is very oppressive, red with black, black with red, and it looks like the end of the world.
"What's going on, what's going on, what's going ......on," I swallowed, my heart full of unease.
Before Ma Liang could speak, Brother Zhou on the side muttered suspiciously, saying Is there anything here?
"Don't you see that the sky has changed?" My face was white, the sky was still blue just now, but in a blink of an eye, the whole sky was dark red, he didn't think there was anything?
"Nope!" Brother Zhou shook his head.
"You can't see it?" I looked at him suspiciously.
"Nope!" Brother Zhou also looked at me with a confused face.
"Don't ask, he can't see it, after all, he didn't open his eyes!" Ma Liang said softly.
I said I didn't open my eyes either, how can I see it again?
Later, when I heard Ma Liang's analysis, I realized what was going on. He said that the reason why the color changed on this day was because Lai Pizhou's resentment began to strengthen again, and the reason why I could see it was also because I was now recruiting yin and weakening yang, so I could see a particularly strong resentment.
Ma Liang said that we can't leave now, we can get rid of it, but the whole village people don't want to get out alive, if Lai Pizhou is not eradicated, then it is very likely that finding a village will become an empty village.
I gasped, could it be that we were really going to have a bad fight with our old friends?
I looked at Ma Liang in embarrassment and asked him if there was any other way.
"Yes!"
Ma Liang's face was not very good-looking, and he was silent for a long time before he slowly exhaled, "Find a way to eliminate his resentment and ask him how he died!" ”
Ask him? How to ask?
"You...... You want to conjure spirits? I changed my posture uneasily.
"There's no need to summon him now, tomorrow night is his first seven, he's definitely going to go back home to see, we just need to wait at his house, and if you're lucky, you can still see his wife's soul."
Good your sister, whoever likes to watch it, I don't want to watch it!
But we can't just walk away, not to mention that it has nothing to do with us whether the people in the village die or not, but Lai Pizhou died unjustly, and we can't help but help him avenge.
What's more, I still have an indescribable thought in my heart, that is, Lai Pizhou's death is very likely to have something to do with me.
Or maybe it has something to do with the guy who called me.
Me, Lai Pi Zhou, and Ma Liang. There seems to be a thread that connects us in the dark.
……
Lai Pi Zhou's mother was hospitalized, and his daughter-in-law also died, and Lai Pi Zhou's home was empty.
Tomorrow is the first seven days of Raipi Zhou, the day he returns, and we have to prepare everything.
Originally, Brother Zhou wanted to invite us to his house as guests and stay for one night, but Ma Liang didn't agree, saying that it was too late, so he would live in Lai Pizhou's house, and he had to arrange some things.
This decision made my scalp tingle, and the thought of living in a house where two dead people made me feel creepy, but when I thought about it, I was afraid of hanging, and there was something more powerful in me.
Who's afraid of whom!
Then Ma Liang began to tell Brother Zhou to help find some things.
When Brother Zhou heard what we said just now, he knew what we were doing, and he didn't hesitate, saying that as long as he could help, he would do his best to do it.
After learning what Ma Liang wanted, he patted his chest from time to time and promised that he would definitely be able to do it.
In fact, what Ma Liang wants is very simple, it must be difficult to find in big cities, but it is too easy in the village, and almost every household has it.
Ma Liang asked for a big rooster, which he had to raise without feed, and the rooster must be an old rooster that is more than three years old, and the feathers on the butt can only have three colors.
Brother Zhou said that more than three years have not fed the chickens in his house, all of them are free-range, if it is not for the coffin of Lao Zhou placed outside, afraid that the chickens do not know how to jump in and peck the corpse, the streets of the village can see the chickens running all over the street, usually they will let the chickens out and run around, and the chickens will go home by themselves when it gets dark.
But I don't know if the rooster's feathers have three colors, if not, he will find a way to ask other families.
After that, Ma Liang asked for some black dog blood and cinnabar.
Once we were sure we could find everything, we went to Lai Pizhou's house.
To be honest, although I went in with Ma Liang, I still felt a little uneasy.
Lai Pizhou's house was empty, and as soon as he opened the door, he felt a cold wind blowing, cold and cold.
As soon as I entered the hall, I saw Lai Pizhou's posthumous photo placed on the altar, and looking at that familiar face, I suddenly felt a little gloomy, as if the person in that photo had come to life.
This feeling is amazing, because no matter where I go, I can see the photo as soon as I turn my head, and Lai Pizhou's eyes seem to be staring at my back at any time, and my heart is cold.
"Don't be suspicious, he's not here, the house is clean now!" Seeing me staring at the widow, Ma Liang couldn't help but sigh helplessly.
When I heard what he said, I was relieved.
Although it is said that Lai Pizhou was good friends with us when he was alive, but now he is dead, and he is full of resentment, if you think how good you are with him when you are alive, you think that he will not harm you, that is a dream.
When a person dies, he is easily angry and jealous, and if he is not happy at all, he may eat you raw.
"Okay, find a place to rest yourself, at twelve o'clock in the evening, which is the first seven o'clock, we will be busy!" After Ma Liang walked around the room, he said to me.
I said that I was still in the mood to rest now, and I panicked at the thought of the evening.
"By the way, I'll tell you first!" Ma Liang took out a cigarette and threw it to me, "The plan has changed, you have to wait here tonight." ”
What?
I was stunned for a moment, pointing to my nose and speechless, what did he just say? I'm waiting here? Wait for the hell!
"That's right, just waiting for the ghost!" Ma Liang nodded solemnly.
I stammered and said, brother, are you mistaken, the original plan was not like this.
The original plan was for me to follow him to the corpse, and then use the Soul Trapping Array to trap Lai Pizhou's soul, and we asked who killed him, and then promised to help him avenge the end of the matter.
But now Ma Liang dared to say that I would stay here.
"Plans have changed!" Ma Liang sighed heavily, "I didn't think this house would be this kind of furnishing before, so ......"
The furnishings of the house?
I was confused.
"The furnishings of this house should have been deliberately changed, this is a situation at all, anyway, I don't understand to you, he will come to the house first tonight, and then you will find a way to lure him to the Soul Trapping Array, otherwise, we won't be able to catch him at all, understand?" Ma Liang looked at me with a solemn face.
"This ...... Can you change someone? "I don't really understand what he's saying, but I know he wants me to be bait.
"Yes!" Ma Liang nodded.
"Really?" I was overjoyed.
"Hmm!" He suddenly laughed, "If you're afraid, I'll be the bait, but you go and overtake the Soul Trap Array and control him." ”
"I ......" I pointed at his nose and couldn't say anything, he actually teased me!
……
The dark night was silent and eerie, the wind outside howled coldly, and the rustle of leaves could be heard from time to time.
It was already midnight, and the silence outside was terrible, as if darkness was about to swallow everything.
Ma Liang had already started to set up outside, and I was the only one in the whole room.
I don't know if Ma Liang did it on purpose, he deliberately instructed me before going out, saying that only one kerosene lamp was allowed, saying that it was not good to scare Lao Zhou away because the light was too bright.
I'm really sunny, who is scaring whom, a terrible ghost is afraid of the lights on? You're so kidding me.
It's okay that the kerosene lamp is not lit, but now it is blown by the cold wind blowing in from the window, and it keeps shaking, and the flames are sometimes big and sometimes small, which makes my back tingle.
In the dark room, a little bean-like candle flame burned.
The fewer and shorter the candles, the dripping grease dripping onto the ground, like the sobs of a wraith.
The wind was blowing outside, and I was still staring at the candle motionless.
The wind was still blowing fiercely, as if it was angry and wanted to settle some strong grudge.
In this night when you can't see your fingers, only the light in front of Lai Pi Zhou's spiritual seat reveals a little bit of light.
Suddenly, the candlelight that had been struggling for a long time was quietly extinguished, and the surroundings were finally swallowed up in this boundless darkness.
My heart thumped, and my scalp tingled.
It's okay, don't scare yourself, it's not the first time you've seen it, don't be afraid.
I kept comforting myself, but the cold sweat on my head still fell hard.
I swallowed, took two deep breaths to cheer myself up, and tiptoed over to the candle to light it.
Tremblingly, he took out the lighter from his pocket and lit it several times before lighting the candle.
Looking at the slowly lit candlelight, half of the stone in my heart was gone.
"Whew!" I let out a long breath, and as soon as I turned around, I saw a face as white as a dead man, staring at me......
