Chapter 40: Ghosts Get in the Way

The so-called ghost blocking the way, also commonly known as ghost hitting the wall, is a phenomenon of movement illusion in terms of scientific explanation. That is, when walking at night or in the suburbs, people can't tell the direction, their self-perception is blurred, and they don't know where to go, so they always turn in circles.

When you tell others about this experience, it is difficult for others to understand, so it is called "ghost hitting the wall", in fact, this is a hazy state of human consciousness, which is also a very common experience.

When I first joined the work, one afternoon when I had nothing to do, I was looking for Uncle Liu for tea, and during the chat, Uncle Liu told me such a story:

It is said that when he was a child, his friends in the next village had a 300-pound pig ready to kill and eat meat, and invited them to join in the fun.

The officials here may not know very well that in the past, in the countryside, every family was relatively poor, and only during the Chinese New Year could they eat a meal of meat. So this pig killing, but it is a big deal, always have to be decently invited to a few tables, stew a pot of good pig killing dishes, drink some wine, relatives and friends are lively together.

At that time, because there were more farm work and things during the day, so the pig killing dishes were generally treated at night, and when the adults were busy, the sun had already set, and the adults pushed the flatbed cart, pulled the old people and children, and went to the next village to catch up, Uncle Liu was only four or five years old at the time, so he sat in the car.

They took the only road that connected the two villages, and on either side of the road were woods and fields, which were bare because it was winter.

Originally, everyone was talking and laughing, humming a little song leisurely, walking well according to the familiar road in memory, and suddenly found that a wall appeared in the place where it should have been going straight ahead, and the road turned to the right.

"Huh? When is there a wall on this road?" everyone was surprised, and before they could react, a voice appeared in front of the road, as if calling them, and everyone looked, the man was far away, and waved to this side from time to time.

Everyone thought it was someone from the village who came out to greet them, so they walked towards him, smiling and grinning.

But the strange thing is that when everyone finally approached, the person was gone.

Only then did everyone realize that they had gone wrong, this was not the way to the next village, and when they were about to turn back and return, they saw a black shadow, floating around everyone.

After wandering for a while, he came to Uncle Liu, who was young, and the newborn calf was not afraid of tigers, and scolded loudly, "Who are you?" ”

The thing didn't answer, so he went to Uncle Liu at that time. Seeing this, everyone hurriedly protected the young Uncle Liu, and then fought with it.

Listening to Uncle Liu's description, everyone fought with that thing, and they were tired and sweating profusely, and they were about to be unable to support it. Until the real neighbors saw that they hadn't come, they came looking for them with flashlights and shouted, what are you doing here? Come and eat meat! The dishes are going to be cold!

Only then did everyone realize that they had been blinded by a ghost,

Looking around, there is no black shadow, a few people are bare hands with the plants on the side of the road, a few acacia trees are discounted, and the hands are bleeding, if it is not for the people from the neighboring village to stop them, I am afraid that people will die.

After telling this story at that time, I also heard it a little evil, so I asked Uncle Liu if there was a way to crack it.

Uncle Liu took a sip of tea and said to me slowly, there are actually three ways to get out of the ghost wall:

First, others shouted loudly. When Uncle Liu was a child, this incident came out because someone came to look for them and shouted loudly.

Second, the boy's urine. In our Chinese folk, children's urine can drive away ghosts and evil spirits, and children are the most yang and prosperous body, with infinite yang energy and energy, representing the most vigorous vitality in the world, and is a symbol of auspiciousness in feng shui. The urine is produced by the accumulation of yang energy in the human kidneys, which retains a certain amount of vitality, plus it is the urine of a child, so it strengthens its effect on warding off evil spirits. So don't be afraid when you encounter a ghost hitting the wall, find an underage child to pee, and it can be resolved naturally.

Third, it is a variety of Yin and Yang Mr. Magic, this method has a wide range, different people, different spells are used, whether it can be broken, it depends on the level of the Tao.

The book is back to business, back to the world in front of me, now I naturally have no choice, in the middle of the night in the deep mountains and old forests, who will shout at me?

Boy pee? …… What, I'm sorry, the contemptible person is no longer a child.

Therefore, we have to rely on wisdom at critical moments, who let us understand feng shui spells! Isn't there a saying that knowledge is power!

Thinking of this, I cut off a sword finger in my right hand, and urged a spell to break the evil spirit recorded in the Xianqing Five Phases Qimen in my mouth:

Breaking the evil spell: "The Tao is natural, the universe is infinite, and the edict!" ”

As I shouted, the scene around me began to distort like ripples of water, and I couldn't see anything clearly, but after a while, the scene became clear again.

Haha, I guessed right! Sure enough, it's a ghost hitting the wall!

Then I looked at it, grass, isn't this the room I just slept in? My luggage was honestly by the bedside, and in the dim light, the Miao version of the Pleasant Goat was still playing on the TV set of the Thorn Lala, and the classic scene of the gray wolf being kicked out of the earth was being played.

So I didn't go anywhere? Have you been circling around this room all the time?!

I subconsciously looked at my watch, and it was 2:45 a.m. It seems that the monster must have followed, and the ghost hit the wall just now designated it as a famous one.

Thinking of this, I walked out of the room, and the strange and familiar "again" knocked on the door of Manman next door.

"Knock knock!!!Manman, Manman, are you asleep?"

The door creaked open, and a strong smell of alcohol came out. Obviously, Manman and the others didn't sleep, and they had already set up the "white wine array", so the monster didn't bother them.

When Manman saw that it was me, he was a little angry and said:

"Why did you come? Why did you go, I didn't answer the phone, and we didn't dare to go out, so we just waited for you to come over! ”

I turned sideways into the room, closed the door, and saw that they were sitting on the bed watching TV with a liquor watering can, and their hanging hearts suddenly relaxed, so I told them what had just happened.

After hearing this, they were also frightened, Pang Yan'er said noisily that this place couldn't stay for a moment, and they would go down the mountain tomorrow morning.

Man Man and Yu Na didn't speak, and lowered their heads as if they were hesitating.

I looked at them like this, and after thinking about it, I said comfortingly:

"I don't think you need to go back"

I looked at my watch again and continued:

"You see, it's already three o'clock fifteen, and it's going to be dawn soon, this thing shouldn't come, it's very afraid of liquor, and it can't get close to you at all, and it doesn't seem to be able to do anything to me, otherwise it won't make a ghost hit the wall tonight and scare it."

Yu Na raised her head at this time and gently echoed:

"Our trip to Gaoershan is three days and two nights, and tonight has passed, in fact, there is only one night left tomorrow."

And I said:

"Yes, in the current situation, this monster is like a fly, it can't hit people and disgust people, but if your discipline hangs, it's troublesome, so don't lose a big one because of a small one."

They listened to me say this, thought about it for a while, and agreed to stay and not make the problem worse.

After all, they have been studying for more than ten years, and finally the graduate school is about to graduate, if you postpone graduation or drop out because of this kind of thing, it will really be a bit more than worth the loss.

Just like the other day, I sat on the couch next to me, watching them fall asleep, but I couldn't sleep again.

It's no wonder that whoever can't sleep after such a toss in the middle of the night!

At this moment, I was looking at the stabbing and broken TV, their house was a little stronger than mine, and they could receive three stations, and the extra one was playing the beads.

I originally wanted to play with my mobile phone, but the signal in this place is very poor, there is no network at all, and the boss of the chicken thief is also picking the door to get home, and I don't even install a WIFI.

"Grass"

I cursed, threw down my phone, sat on the sofa wrapped in a towel quilt, and looked at the thorny and half-clear TV, with endless sourness in my heart:

"Victory, victory, how long will it be before you come back?"
