"Master...I am Old Tang."
"You've been sleeping all day, and your phone rang many times. I saw it was getting dark, so I called you and I went to heat up some food."
Uncle Tang's words struck my ears.
The fluttering of my eyelids calmed down a little, and my tone became much calmer.
"Uncle Tang, I'm fine. I'll be out later."
Tang Quan's footsteps moved away.
I got out of bed, rolled my temples, and walked to the front of my suit.
There was a thin layer of sweat on his forehead, and his heartbeat was still very fast.
The suit was filled with wisps of gray air, and the gray air was like slender hands trying to grab me.
The fingers holding the glasses frame were also clinging to a lot of gray air like thin hands, which kept pulling at my skin and flesh, making me want to put the glasses on my face...
I just felt my scalp was numb.
I quickly put my glasses into my suit pocket, took out several talismans from the cabinet in the house, and quickly pasted them around the suit.
The talisman paper adhered tightly to the wall, and the gray air on the suit disappeared. I breathed a sigh of relief.
I frowned. This thing must be handled properly and cannot be thrown away casually. Once someone picks it up, something similar to Zhao Kang may happen. This dead man's clothes are so heavy with yin energy that they will definitely lead people to go there. Where there are deep grievances, a vicious prison may form.
This time, the glasses and the dead man's clothes are all in a set, so it's definitely not that easy to solve...
The phone buzzed.
I got through, and Chu Ying's voice came, asking me what was going on. She almost had to call me before she answered the phone. Why hasn't she arrived at Huangsi yet?
I exhaled and said, "Nothing happened. It's a little troublesome. I'll be there later."
"Little trouble? Is it serious?" she asked nervously.
"No problem." After saying that, I hung up the phone.
After staring at the suit for a long time, I felt uneasy, so I took out a cinnabar rope and wrapped it around it, then took out a handful of copper coins and placed them in a circle around the ground below it.
After making these arrangements, I packed up all my things and walked out of the room.
Tang Quan had just finished heating up the food and brought it into the main room.
"Uncle Tang, I have something to do right now and I need to go out in a hurry. Please don't come into my room." I told Tang Quan cautiously.
The yin energy on the suit is too strong. It would be unwise for me to touch it now. I have to wait until daytime.
Huang Si has to deal with the Eight Brothers who are following me, and they also need to give me the information about the Luo family. This matter cannot be delayed.
Tang Quan nodded in agreement, and then told me to eat something before leaving. I couldn't do things hungry.
I went into the main room, picked up the bowls and chopsticks, and ate like a storm.
But suddenly, I heard a slight murmur, as if saying it's over, it's over.
Tang Quan was standing by, seemingly unaware of anything.
I frowned and put down my chopsticks.
Walking to the threshold, I lifted up the floorboard.
The 40 to 50 centimeter cement hole, the chamber pot was covered with cinnabar rope, and Lao Gong's wrinkled head was covered with burn marks.
His round eyes widened and his mouth was still moving.
"It's over... it's over..."
The two words kept repeating.
On the side, Tang Quan looked tense. Apparently, he had just seen Lao Gong.
"What's over?" I asked with a frown.
Oops, Lao Gong stared at me blankly and said: "People want to kill people, ghosts want to kill people, you are going to be finished! You are going to be finished!"
My heart sank.
With a jolt, he realized the taboo.
I granted Lao Gong the title earlier just because he was right twice. I knew I would definitely be deceived by ghosts the third time!
Why are you wavering now?
"Young Master...he is laughing...I would rather hear a ghost cry than see a ghost laugh..."
Tang Quan's voice was trembling.
I squinted my eyes slightly and stared at Lao Gong.
Sure enough, his expression that was wilting a moment ago turned into a sinister smile this moment.
"I'll take care of you when I come back!" I closed the floor tile.
"People kill people!"
"Ghosts kill people!"
"It's over!"
"It's over!"
Lao Gong's voice was sharp and harsh.
Even after I sealed the floor tiles, his head suddenly popped out and he kept laughing evilly at me.
I pulled out the mourning stick hidden under my clothes and hit Lao Gong hard on the forehead and heart. With a pop, he disintegrated into gray mist.
There seemed to be some echoes in the hospital, gradually dissipating...
"Master...are you okay...do you want to go out?" Tang Quan's calmness disappeared and he became trembling.
As the old saying goes, it is better to hear a ghost cry than to see a ghost laugh.
This is because when a ghost cries, it means that the ghost is weaker than a human being, or even asks for help if he has a grievance, while when a ghost laughs, it means that the ghost is gloating about someone else's misfortune, and that the person may be in trouble.
Old Gong is so weird.
I frowned. At this moment, should I believe what he said, or should I not?
For a moment, I didn't answer Tang Quan.
After a while, I finally calmed down.
If I don't deal with Lao Gong, he can't deceive me or scheme against me.
Since he said that people want to kill people and ghosts want to kill people, he also said that I am finished.
Does that mean that I am in danger from both humans and ghosts?
I myself have indeed provoked ghosts and enemies.
You can't just stay at home and shut yourself up, right?
As the saying goes, sail with caution.
"Uncle Tang, I'm leaving first. You go to bed early and ignore him." I glanced at the floor.
When I left the main room, I glanced at the east room subconsciously.
But I saw a person lying down behind the window, peeking at me!
No...it's not a person, it's an empty suit that fills up and looks like a human being.
But its sleeves are empty, and its neck is also empty...
In an instant, I was covered in cold sweat and walked over suddenly.
But as I got closer, I discovered that there was nothing behind the window, just the bed where I slept.
Through the glass, you can see that the suit is hanging on the wall, the talisman has not changed at all, and the rest of the decoration is still there.
I closed my eyes because of psychological pressure, which caused me to hallucinate.
Walking out of Tang's house, there seemed to be eyes staring at me from the distance on the right.
I turned around and looked over, but saw nothing.
Take a long breath.
I'm not sure if this is also a hallucination...but I warned Tang Quan that he is alert enough and should be fine.
After leaving the urban village, we took a taxi and took a detour, arriving outside the parking lot of the high-rise community where Huang Si was located.
When I got out of the car, I immediately saw Tsubaki Ying.
She was standing guard by the roadside, and there was another person beside her.
She was an old woman who was at least seventy or eighty years old. Her hair was braided one by one and neatly combed into a single bun.
The flesh on both sides of her face drooped, her eyelids were half-draped, her cheeks were thin, and her cheeks could be seen slightly bulging.
Wearing a clean red cloth coat and red cloth shoes, it was obviously very festive for a living person to wear this, but on her, it looked extremely gloomy.
"You're finally here. If you don't come, I'll have to find you."
There was less worry in Chuying's eyes. She was still wearing the same plain dress as last night, without makeup, and was more charming and softer than usual.
"Let me introduce you to Granny Shu, arranged by Manager Yang."
After saying this, Chuying looked up at the night sky, as if looking for traces of the myna.
Granny Shu and I looked at each other. She raised her eyelids slightly and looked me up and down, which made the skin on my face tingle.
Instinct tells me that she is dangerous, but I can't tell which of the nine ranks she is.
"Well, I'm not a big person, but I have a bad temper. I like shaving people's heads when I meet her. I've learned a lot about this old lady." Granny Shu said angrily.
