Chapter 005: The Dead Man Speaks

I've never seen it before, but I'm not stupid, and I immediately knew that the white thing just now seemed to be a so-called ghost!

Until then, I didn't believe in ghosts and gods at all, and it seemed to me that it was a ridiculous thing that only the ignorant would believe.

However, when that thing appeared in front of me so closely, my worldview was suddenly turned upside down, and I was so frightened that I couldn't get up from sitting on the ground.

Lao Xuan didn't have time to pay attention to me, he walked into the circle of blood alone, and actually said angry words to the corpse.

"Death is dead, stop struggling."

"Anyway, you have lived to be more than eighty years old, and compared to many people, you should be content."

"You have been lying in bed for half a year, and your body has long been unbearable, to be honest, your three sons have been benevolent to you."

"It's just that, money is something outside the body, life does not bring it to death, the money of the Yang world is of little use to you, but it is very important to your three children, they have been looking for so long and have not found it, I think you should put it up."

At this time, I suddenly saw that the white smoke actually floated out of the corpse again, gathered into a piece, and formed a complete humanoid shape, which was suspended in front of Lao Xuan like that.

I was stunned by the sudden and terrifying sight.

Is this the legendary ghost? It's the first time I've seen this big.

"Woo woo woo ......" This low, eerie sound came from somewhere in the air.

The white shadow floated around in a circle of blood, as if looking for an exit, but it could only be like a caged bird, unable to escape.

"Don't bother with it, you can't escape from this soul locking array, just say everything you need to say, I'll send you on your way quickly." Lao Xuan said to the white shadow.

However, the white shadow did not seem to be so willing, and kept letting out a low whining sound, and his emotions became more and more intense, and he flew around like a headless fly in that circle.

Lao Xuan didn't seem to expect this white shadow to react so violently, and couldn't help but wonder.

At this time, I suddenly saw the candle flame in the room flickering twice, and then, the only candle was also extinguished by the white shadow!

"Not good! Boy, get the fire and light the wax! Lao Xuan exclaimed.

When I heard this, I hurriedly took out a match from my pocket.

I had just lit a match, and I almost fainted with fright, when I saw a terrible white face in front of me, and it was about to crash into me.

I could see at a glance that this was not the old man Zhang Tingwang who had just died in the hospital bed!

He came back from the dead!

I saw Zhang Tingwang bite me directly with a big mouth, I was so frightened that I couldn't help but throw away the match in my hand, and before the match was extinguished, Zhang Tingwang had already grabbed my hand.

I only felt that my hand was wrapped in a piece of ice, extremely cold, and Zhang Tingwang's hand was very hard, like an iron tong, and the force was so great that no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't break free.

At the same time, I also heard a low roar like a beast coming from Zhang Tingwang's mouth, whining and whining, very terrifying.

I could even feel the icy chill coming out of his snort, crude and disgusting.

Seeing that Zhang Tingwang was about to open his big mouth and bite me, I was shocked and scared, suddenly, a ghostly light flashed in front of my eyes, and then, I saw a bright light suddenly lit up in front of me, and at the same time, Zhang Tingwang's mouth let out a sharp exclamation, which was almost about to burst my eardrums.

Only then did I see that Zhang Tingwang had just grabbed my hand, and it was burning at this moment!

Zhang Tingwang seemed to be very jealous of this fire, and desperately shook the flame in his hand, wanting to extinguish the fire.

"Boy, you're going to spoil me!" Lao Xuan exclaimed and hurried over.

Lao Xuan took out a cup from his arms, opened the lid, and directly splashed the contents of the cup towards Zhang Tingwang without saying anything.

Zhang Tingwang, who was still there with his teeth and claws, was splashed like this by the liquid in this cup, and immediately became as hard as a stone stick, and directly lay straight on the ground.

As Zhang Tingwang's body fell, a white shadow flew out of Zhang Tingwang's seven orifices again.

As soon as this white shadow flew out, Lao Xuan had already taken out a piece of yellow paper and spat it, and then pasted the yellow paper directly on the white shadow.

The white shadow was originally in an ethereal state of smoke, but I don't know why, Lao Xuan's yellow paper was able to stick to its body.

Here, Lao Xuan had already re-lit the two candles, and I could see the white shadow clearly.

I saw that although the white shadow was a little blurry, I could still see that there were similar facial features on his face, a black hole.

And the yellow paper stuck to the white shadow's body, as if floating out of thin air, looked very weird.

However, it is strange that after the white shadow was pasted with yellow paper, although it still kept writhing, it could no longer move to the surrounding area, and could only twist and deform in a fixed place.

It seems that this white shadow has been restrained by Lao Xuan.

"Old Xuan, what the hell is this?" I couldn't hold it back any longer and asked directly.

"This is Zhang Tingwang's soul!" Lao Xuan replied.

Although I had expected this, I must have been surprised to get Lao Xuan's own mouth, if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I really couldn't believe that there really was such a thing as a soul in this world.

But what makes me wonder is why ordinary people can't see their souls after they die, but this Zhang Tingwang can see the soul of the entity.

Could it be that Lao Xuan did those ghosts, so Zhang Tingwang's soul materialized?

This is the most plausible explanation I can think of.

At this moment, Zhang Tingwang's soul was still distorting, and the white smoke was flickering and gathering, fluctuating.

Lao Xuan came to the soul and said with a gloomy face: "Okay, old man, I don't have time to delay with you, now, tell me where you are hiding things, otherwise when it gets really dawn, you will be in trouble." ”

"Woo woo woo woo ......" Zhang Tingwang's soul still seemed to be unwilling, but after a while, the white shadow finally quieted down.

White Shadow's mouth began to make a low sound of rustling, and I couldn't understand anything because it was so far away.

Lao Xuan leaned closer to his ear, and after listening for a while, he finally nodded and said: "Okay, I know, the dead don't care about the living, everything in this yang world, whether right or wrong, will have nothing to do with you, cut off the dust, and go on the road with peace of mind." ”

After that, I saw Lao Xuan's big hand raised, and I didn't see him make too many movements, only to see that the yellow paper on the white shadow was ignited, and the white shadow, as if it had been poured with gasoline, exploded.

In an instant, the white shadow disappeared in front of him along with the yellow paper.

Lao Xuan let out a sigh of relief, then turned around, looked at me and asked, "Are you okay?" ”

I shook my head, "It's fine. ”

Lao Xuan still looked palpitating, and said: "It was really hanging just now, fortunately you have a ghost fire in your body, otherwise, I'm afraid you will really lose your life just now!" ”

I know that Lao Xuan is definitely not alarmist, and when I think of Zhang Tingwang's fierce appearance just now, I can't help but be frightened.

"Lao Xuan, what the hell is going on, what are you doing? Are you really the kind of ghost hunter Taoist priest you played in the movie? "Now that the matter is done, I dare to ask.

Lao Xuan grinned and said, "Ghost Hunter Taoist? It's all a lie in the movie, you believe it! ”

"But you were obviously catching ghosts, were you?"

Lao Xuan smiled again, "Okay, let's finish things now, and we'll talk when we go back." ”

With that, Lao Xuan opened the door.

In the courtyard outside the door, Zhang Tingwang's three children and those female dependents were waiting outside, and as soon as they saw us coming out, they quickly surrounded us.

"Elder Xuan, how's it going?"

Lao Xuan looked calm and relaxed, "The thing is buried in the floor under the old man's bed and sealed with cement, you go and chisel it." ”

When the three brothers heard this, they immediately led the men into the room with their tools.

Lao Xuan stood in the courtyard, lit a cigarette, and handed me one.

I looked, good guy, this old man is actually smoking a soft bag of China, this style can be compared with the national cadres.

I was a little panicked, and I just took a cigarette to suppress the panic, so I took it and lit it, and half of it was smoked out in one gulp.

At this moment, there was a clanging sound in the room.

Lao Xuan opened the busy room and said: "Zhang Tingwang had a serious illness half a year ago, and the whole person could no longer move, and he was sick in bed all the time. His three children, in order to compete for Zhang Tingwang's inheritance, quarreled fiercely. As the saying goes, there is no filial son in front of the bed for a long time, and in the past six months or so, his three children have gradually begun to become impatient, and they have not taken care of Zhang Tingwang so carefully, and sometimes they are even a little impatient. This Zhang Tingwang was a vigorous businessman when he was young, and his mind was originally tougher than ordinary people. His heart hardened, and he decided to take all his possessions to the ground, not intending to leave a single cent for his three children. So, they found me. ”

After hearing this, I felt a little incredible, "You mean, did you find out the place where he hid his property from Zhang Tingwang's soul, and then tell these to his three unfilial sons?" ”

Lao Xuan nodded, "You can also say that." ”

However, isn't this very unfair to Zhang Tingwang? You also used threats to get money out of his hands, which can be called blackmail to some extent! "I am very angry that Lao Xuan helped those three unfilial sons snatch Zhang Tingwang's inheritance.

Lao Xuan smiled bitterly and said, "Zhang Tingwang is a dead man now, have you ever heard that blackmailing a dead person is a crime?" Although Zhang Tingwang's three children did something inappropriate, but they did their duty before, you can't ask all of them to be exemplary filial sons, in fact, most people are saying it nicely, it's really their turn, maybe it will be much better than the three of them. ”

I was touched by Lao Xuan's words, he was right, maybe I thought things too perfectly.

Lao Xuan continued: "Don't think that Zhang Tingwang is a completely pitiful person. Back then, Zhang Tingwang forced the biological mother of the three brothers to a dead end for a lover, and the three brothers originally held a lot of grudges against Zhang Tingwang, and it was already okay to be able to do this, if it was someone else, I am afraid that he would not even be willing to send him to the end. Of course, if you say that the three of them are for Zhang Tingwang's money, I won't raise the bar with you, after all, as long as there is money mixed in the affairs of this world, it will immediately become complicated, and it is impossible to say. ”

Hearing Lao Xuan's words, my opposition to Lao Xuan eased slightly.

"In Zhang Tingwang's life, one of the things he loves most is a woman, and the other is good money. Even if he died, he had to hold the money in the palm of his hand, which was a great waste. Now, you know that what I did was not a good thing, old man, but it was not a bad thing. ”

"Then, how did you predict the time of Zhang Tingwang's death before?" That's something I really can't figure out.

Lao Xuan smiled slightly, "It's simpler. In fact, Zhang Tingwang's deadline is long overdue, and I have been trying to calm his spirits and let him survive for more time. However, my ability is also very limited, today is the seventh day, I have no choice but to give up. I went down the fence myself, and naturally knew when to fall. ”

"You mean, you actually helped Zhang Tingwang extend his life by seven days?" Such words sound to me really unbelievable.

"I don't have that much ability, I just let his soul stay in his body for a few more days, he is only medically alive, in fact, he is already a dead man."

"But why let him live a few more days?" I find this strange.

Lao Xuan sighed and said, "This is what their three brothers mean, today, it happens to be their mother's death day, they want Zhang Tingwang to live to this day and leave with their mother." They said that their mother had hoped that they could leave this world with Zhang Tingwang and not be so lonely along the way. It's just that she didn't expect that she didn't wait for this day, which can be regarded as a way for the three brothers to fulfill their filial piety to their mother. ”

When I said this, I was a little moved in my heart.

It stands to reason that the things Zhang Tingwang did were enough to make all the children in the world turn against him, but these three brothers still wanted to help their mother fulfill their wishes in the end, which took a lot of thought, which is really rare.

At this moment, the three brothers came out of the house, and they all looked very excited.

"Xuan Lao, thanks to you, the thing was found!"
