Chapter II

I always have nightmares from time to time at night, the scene in the dream is all the old house, as if I am trapped in it, I can never get out, the nightmare never stops, obviously the door is in front of me, but I can't get out, no matter how I shout, no one responds to me, every time, I am afraid that I am trapped in the dream and will never wake up again.

"Lan Lan, Lan Lan, wake up." My mother kept slapping my face and shaking my body, trying to drag me out of my dream. I opened my eyes in a daze and saw the tears left in the corners of my mother's eyes, this is not the first time, since I moved out of the village after playing hide and seek when I was a child, I have always been like this, as long as I started sleeping, I was trapped in my dreams, every time, it was longer than before, and this time, I slept for three whole days.

In addition to my mother, there was an old man next to me, a bald man, with long eyebrows and beard, sitting on a chair with his back bent, a cane in his hand, and his eyes staring at me motionless, and I was so frightened that I hid in my mother's arms.

"Let her go with me, although I can't protect her for a lifetime, I can protect her for a while." The old man sighed, stood up, and looked at my mother.

The mother just wanted to say something, but the father broke in, pointed at the old grandfather and scolded, "I don't need you to protect her, I am her father, as long as I am here, no one can take her away." ”

After listening to his father's words, the old man was so angry that he hammered the floor several times with his cane, stomped his feet back and forth, and then pointed at his father and kept scolding, "I said when she was born, she brought her own ghost grass, and she was the destined heir of my Zhang family, and she could only enter the way of ghosts and gods without any in-laws, you didn't listen, you didn't even say hello, and took Xiaofang and Lan Lan away overnight, and now things are developing like this, it's all your fault, and now the owner of the old house has put a ghost mark on these children, no matter how they flee to the ends of the earth, The soul will eventually be trapped in that old house, especially Lan Lan, the mark on her body, but ask for her life, you can protect it, how can you protect it, what ability do you have to protect it. Three days of sleep now, what about in the future? Can't wake up again? “

The mother stepped forward to comfort the father and held the father's hand tightly, "I know you are reluctant, as a mother, I am even more reluctant, but this is her calamity, let her follow her father to cultivate, maybe only in this way can she be safe." ”

That's it, I followed my grandfather, he said that I am very talented, many Taoism can be taught, and since I came to the Taoist temple, I have practiced Taoism, and I have never had nightmares, but, as my grandfather said, I have no popularity, so I don't have any friends in school, the only friend, is still a ghost.

"Why are you stunned? If you don't do well in class, you will have to take the college entrance examination next year, and the most important thing is that if you don't do well in the monthly exam tomorrow, you will have to cook someone for a month. Wang Xue pointed to my table with Kang Shanshan next to her, Wang Xue has been in school for a long time, because she doesn't remember how she died, no one found her body, no one at home picked up, and there is no incense to guide the way, so she has been wandering around the school, I came to the freshman registration day, I saw her sitting on a small stool under the big tree, asked her for directions, she has been pestering me, maybe it's too lonely, all this time, no one has ever seen her, and no one has talked to her. And Kang Shanshan, who transferred to another school last week, needs to return to the place of household registration to take the college entrance examination, has been chattering in my ear, how her grades are, I am not convinced, so I made a bet with her, whoever ranks last in the grades will give food to whom for a month, now think about it, I am still young, how can I start betting without knowing the details of the enemy.

Sure enough, although I have participated in the mysteries of the Dao, it is rare for me to learn the way, and my grades are not as good as others, so I can only admit it.

"This exam, the new transfer students took the first, everyone should learn more from Shanshan, students who did not do well in the exam should not be discouraged, learning is endless, there are mountains outside the mountain, no matter how hard you work, don't have psychological pressure, this time I didn't do well, next time I work hard to do well, the teacher, I believe in everyone very much, so ah......" Before the teacher finished speaking, he was interrupted by the screams outside, and people kept screaming, and people from other classes also came out one after another to lie outside the corridor to watch, We also went out and took a look, and it turned out that someone had jumped off the building.

The blood flowed all over the ground, and the white school uniform was gradually dyed red, and his soul gradually floated out of the corpse, he stood next to his body, his eyes staring at the upstairs, I wanted to follow him to look up, but was stopped by Wang Xue, "Don't look." Wang Xue seemed to know something.

After the police and parents left, the school washed the blood stains on the ground several times before finally washing them away, everyone's mood was still difficult to calm down, and they were secretly chatting in private, I called Wang Xue to a place where no one was, I know, she must know the truth, today's matter, maybe not as simple as suicide.

"Tell me, what do you see?" I looked at Wang Xue and patted her on the shoulder.

Wang Xue brushed my hand away, and her tone was very serious, "That boy did jump off the building by himself, but he didn't want to jump off the building by himself." “

"Did someone make him jump off the building?" I looked at Wang Xue and was very puzzled.

"You remember, so to speak, that teacher, the one that scared me so much?"

I thought about it, isn't the teacher Wang Xue afraid of Teacher Luo who was only transferred to the school this year, "Are you talking about Teacher Luo?" ”

"Yes, yes, Mr. Luo, it's him, I feel scared every time I see him, but after getting to know you, I'm a lot bolder, I want to know, why I'm afraid, so every time I see him, I want to follow him, and I'm not so scared anymore, I always didn't dare to follow him into his house before, but somehow, I followed him in last night, and I saw the boy, right in his house."

Wang Xue's expression was very frightened, and I held her hand to comfort her and motioned for her to continue.

"That boy, there is a photo in my hand, I stood at the door and didn't dare to look closer, but Mr. Luo was very frightened when he saw the photo, but the boy laughed very happily, and then Mr. Luo somehow also laughed, and fiddled with the swing ball on the table, I was a little scared when I saw this, and ran out, and finally out of curiosity, I ran back again, so I don't know what they talked about, but when I went back, I heard Mr. Luo say in the boy's ear, tomorrow after reading the exam results, Boys are going to jump off buildings, so I have been following this boy today, and then today that boy actually jumped off the building after reading the test results. ”
