Chapter 189: People want faces, trees want bark
Li Changge said: "My brother has always been suspicious of the Chen family, but he has no ability to investigate the Chen family. It can only be estimated with the help of Qimen Dunjia. During this period, he hired private-house-detective-detectives to collect information about the Chen family. ”
"The people he hired, although they didn't find any clues, got back some things about the Chen family."
I said to Li Changge, "Where's the thing? ”
"In the car!" Li Changge was prepared before he came over, and quickly took out a box from the car.
There are a lot of things in it, including old-fashioned watches, cigarette holders, and hairpins.
I asked Ye Huan to move the things into the hanged room first, and then turned on the lights and looked through them one by one.
I just looked at it roughly and shook my head and said, "These are not the things of the Chen family, you were deceived by that private-family-detective." ”
"These things are all old objects from the past, the Chen family has them, and other people's families also have them. The breath on these objects is chaotic, and there are three of them in the breath of the elderly alone. In addition to the old two, there is no third old man in the Chen family, right? ”
Li Changge was stunned for a long time: "No wonder, we can't calculate the past of the Chen family." ”
I waved my hand and said, "You guys are mistaken, Qimen Dunjia is not something used for fortune telling......
I stopped in the middle of my sentence: "Wait a minute, how is that private-house-detective-detective now?" ”
Li Changge said: "That private-family-detective-detective, there has been no news since he took over a business with us. My brother later searched for two more people, and they also disappeared. ”
I nodded, "That's easy." I can't track down the people of the old Chen family, I can track down that private-family-detective-detective. ”
"I'll see who's going to come?"
"I'll go out and get something, you wait for me."
I went outside and found a pile of dry branches, and I raised a stack of wood in the middle of the house, and cut off a piece of wood from the door frame, window frame, and beam of the house, and sat down in front of the firewood with the chip: "After a while, after I cast a spell, a ghost will come." ”
"But I don't know how many ghosts will be invited, and I don't know who it is?"
"I don't think the leader of the other party will appear directly, and killing a few minions doesn't mean much to us. So, after the ghosts appear, don't rush to do it, and probe their bottom first. ”
I saw a few of them nodding, so I lit the dry wood in front of me, and soon after the fire rose, I threw a packet of medicinal powder into the fire, and the curling green smoke with a faint aroma floated in the air, and I also said: "Ye Huan, you say, which ghost will come first?" ”
"On the beams!" Ye Huan said: "I have seen the beam of the house, and the rope there is still there, and the ghost should still be hanging on the house." ”
"Not necessarily!" I shook my head and said, "That ghost on the beam must be gone." ”
I looked at the window and said, "Li Changge, do you know how to use a compass?" ”
Li Changge nodded and said, "It will be a little!" ”
"I've got this compass for you, and if you hold it, you might be able to point out something special." I handed the compass that the patriarch thief got from Lao Xu to Li Changge: "This thing is called the Soul Fixing Plate, which can not only see feng shui, but also locate the breath of people, gods and ghosts. It's right for you. ”
In order to hack Lao Xu's compass, the old thief deliberately changed the appearance of the compass, and now no one can see that it is the treasure of Lao Xu's family.
Li Changge was fiddling with the Soul Fixing Disk with his hands, and the needle of the compass suddenly ejected from the "bottom of the sea", floating in the air an inch away from the compass and spinning rapidly.
I stared at the pointer and said, "Here we go!" ”
Li Changge's hands trembled instinctively, and she almost threw the compass on the ground, but she quickly calmed down, holding the compass flat with both hands, looking at the rapidly rotating pointer.
Shi Qi looked at me and shook his head, but I frowned slightly.
Shi Qi's cultivation is not innate, and he can't transmit sound with internal force, so he can only communicate with me like this.
As the two of us kept exchanging glances, the hands of the compass suddenly stopped, and there was a soft sound on the door of the barn, which sounded like someone was moving against the door, trying to see what we were doing.
I turned my head to look between the wooden doors that I had forced back into the door frame, and I saw a man crouching in the doorway with his arms in his arms, and the man pressed his face against the door panel, only half of his face was showing and staring at me through the wooden door.
I casually asked, "What are you doing at the door?" ”
The man replied in a hoarse voice, "I'm cold, can you lend me a piece of clothing?" ”
As soon as the man's words came out, Li Changge suddenly shuddered.
In the middle of the night, a stranger suddenly said to you: I am cold and want clothes.
Then you are fifty percent likely to have met wandering ghosts who lack food and clothing, they have no sacrifices, they can't receive food, clothing, and paper money, so they have to block the road and find someone to ask for it. If you bump into such a ghost, you can avoid disaster by burning some paper money and clothes, otherwise, he will easily keep pestering you like this.
There is also a possibility that he is not here to ask for clothes, but to ask for your Yangshou.
I said lightly: "If it's cold, come in and roast the fire." ”
The man shook his head and said, "There's a woman in your house, she's so powerful that I don't dare to go in." Just take off your clothes and throw them at me. ”
"I still have to wear my clothes, I can't give them to you." As I spoke, I gave Shi Qi a look.
This ghost is really here to ask for someone's longevity.
Ghosts, looking for people to ask for clothes, usually ask for new clothes, not for people to wear them. There is popularity on the old clothes, and even if they are burned, the ghost will not be able to wear them, unless the clothes are his own.
On the contrary, he has to ask for the clothes you are wearing, that is, he is ready to pester you.
The man laughed: "Anyway, you're all going to die, why do you care about such a piece of clothing?" ”
I deliberately said, "How do you know we're going to die, aren't we alive and well?" ”
The man blinked and said, "The men who enter this room will not survive, and the two women may be able to come out, so you two don't have to think about it." ”
Li Changge suddenly shouted: "Han Mingxuan, you are Han Mingxuan!" ”
The man smiled and said, "Thank you, Miss Li, for remembering me, I disappeared to help your Li family find something, didn't you even ask?" ”
"You come here as your recompense."
I sneered and said, "Shit! I've never seen such a shameless person as you, you cheat your employer with the old goods you bought, even if you don't care, you still complain that your employer doesn't care about your life or death? ”
"According to you, the employer knows that you are a liar, but he still has to be grateful to you?"
"To be a human being, to be a ghost, you have to have a face, don't be like the old Chen family, you don't have a face when you are alive, and you still don't have a face when you die."
"Look at you, you are virtuous, you cheated two little money when you were alive, and you even had to wear clothes when you died, and you didn't have relatives or relatives for half your life, right?"
"But, yes! Who makes friends and wants to beg for food? ”
