Chapter 8

He laughed innocently and spoke naturally, but I was completely in a state of paroxysm! I really can't understand how Mrs. Nine managed to teach such a son who does things without a clue and can still tell you that he did something bad with a smile on his face without shame.

But again, I'm glad that he just rushed in without a brain, otherwise I really don't know where I would have ended up. Therefore, looking at his heated smile, scolding is not, praising is not, making me cry and laugh a little ……

I could only change the topic and tell Ding Ding about the matter of seeing those feet just now. He listened to me finish, make a very serious look, but in his face that some of the Zhengtai gas and very unnatural.

Ding Ding said, just now that ah, is a little hungry ghost. I saw it as soon as I came in, and it was also very simple to collect it.

I then realized how I lost my first bowl of instant noodles. But when I heard Tintin mention subduing it, I was immediately interested and asked him how he did it.

Ding Ding fumbled around in his big bag for a while again and pulled out an earthy red thing.

When I looked at it, it was the small clay pot I had been playing with in front of Mrs. Nine's house, so this was still used to catch ghosts?

Ding Ding put the earthen jar on the table and reasoned with me, saying that it was actually quite simple, I put Yuanbao candles in this jar, which is the favorite thing of the hungry ghosts. Without me having to do anything, it ran into the jar by itself. At the end, he added a sentence, but I tried it myself, Yuanbao candle is not delicious.

I gave him a blank look and asked, That's it?

Tintin nodded and said, Yeah, it's over.

I originally thought it would be like in the movies, brushing and burning a few yellow talismans, then vermillion sand and peach wood swords or something like that. I didn't expect it to be over?

Ding Ding said, those cases are also there, but you met this little hungry ghost grade is too low, do not need these.

I thought to myself, is it possible that ghosts are also divided into three, six, nine classes, then it seems that I met those before, but also some low grade.

Ding Ding shook his head, said he did not know how to explain, anyway, is that some of the proverbial ghosts, very difficult to subdue, or even get into trouble.

I think so, and no longer ask more questions, just out of danger, and now still have palpitations. It is best not to talk about these things.

But just so intended, lowered his head to see Wang brother handed me the statement, think of tomorrow at work is expected to meet him, I can not help but shiver.

Ding Ding continued to eat his bowl of instant noodles, and looking at me like this, said that if you want to go to the restroom, go, don't shake here.

I pooh-poohed at him and considered for half a day before deciding to talk to him about Brother Wang. After all, now it seems that Ding Ding also still has so two brushes, unlike those people pretending to be gods and goddesses on the side of the flyover.

Ding Ding heard my words, said, I think there is nothing to be afraid of ah, you on your shift, he did his ghost, no effect on you.

I yelled how can there be no effect! Every day you see a dead person next to you around, you are not afraid of me afraid!

He put down the bowl in his hand, licked his mouth, said, in fact, you such a situation I have experienced, and much earlier than you, you just these two days only began to bump into ghosts, when you see more ghosts, slowly get used to it.

I busily said, it is completely impossible to get used to things!

Ding Ding looked up and snapped and slapped me on the head, instantly confusing me. He said, "You're a real person, at least wait for me to finish my sentence.

I know in my heart that this person does things without thinking about the consequences, if it wasn't for the fact that I had just been saved by him, then I would have just swung my fist and blasted at him. But now I could only hold my breath and listen to what he really wanted to say.

But to my surprise, he didn't mention anything about how to face Wang, but instead told me about his childhood experiences.

Mrs. Nine was forty-two years old married, and Lin Tian told me the same, Ding Ding's father was a cripple, in that era, just happened to be the end of a certain Revolution soon, like Mrs. Nine kind of people since childhood with the yin and yang eyes to see ghosts, and from time to time will mention to the people about what they have seen and heard, at that time was packaged up very bad, in short, to survive has been a million lucky.

Hard to marry out, but Ding Ding's father is a cripple, usually can only do some simple chores, not much income . At that time, Mrs. Nine and their two families had a miserable life. But with the reform and opening up, the social atmosphere slowly changed, and the people around them no longer exclude them as before.

It so happened that in the second year of their marriage, Mrs. Nine became pregnant. For the sake of the upcoming birth of Tintin, but also in order to improve their lives, from that time onwards, Mrs. Jiu studied the business of exorcism.

Borrowing the talent of her own yin and yang eyes, she learned very quickly, and personally operated a few times to catch a few wandering ghosts, and before long, she gained some fame in the local area. Gradually, some people began to pay for her to go out to perform spells to exorcise the evil spirits, and naturally, the old couple was happy to do so, and the days gradually got better and better.

After the Spring Festival, Ding Ding was born. This happened to be the third year of marriage between Mrs. Nine and his father, and according to Lin Tian, his father died that year.

Ding Ding said that his father was not originally surnamed Ding, and neither was Mrs. Nine. But after he was born, Mrs. Nine remembered her own half-life suffering, more worried about the child and their own can see some shouldn't see, she only hope that the child can grow up in peace, don't be like themselves so downtrodden most of his life. So she named him Ding Ding, after the sound of the wind chime hanging in front of her door. He hoped that when the wind chime rang, people would call his name, and he would be able to pronounce his name without being invaded by any ghosts.

Ding Ding's father because of their own conditions some inferiority complex, twenty old to get a son, also hope that this son peace and quiet. He had no problem with it, and followed Mrs. Nine's wishes.

Of course, later proved that these are only nine Mrs. wishful thinking, the name may be able to sway a person's fortune, but can not bless its long-term peace.

Ding Ding's father's death was due to an accident in which Mrs. Nine exorcised a ghost. At that time, although she was a little famous, she hadn't been in the business for long, and she got into trouble with a powerful ghost. She was unable to do anything about the more powerful ghosts and monsters.

At this time, a neighboring village family just got a new daughter-in-law, but not long after returning home, the woman frequently encountered some strange things. First, inexplicable fainting, and then directly out of bed, lying in bed for a few days. People are so thin that almost only bones are left.

This can be anxious about her family, after seeking medical help, only to think of this set of ghosts and gods. Not much time, they found Mrs. Nine's home.

Nine Mrs. began to hesitate, but the family is very generous, the old couple together, inevitably moved the heart. That night, they set out to run to people's homes.

Just walked into the house, Mrs. Nine felt bad, the whole house is very heavy yin qi, if before, she was on this kind of place but avoided. But received the money, want to beat the drum can not. She can only bump into the courage, head into the bride's house.

Which know just went in to scare her, the bride lying in bed, even slept next to a man covered in blood. Staring at a pair of blood red eyes, staring straight at her.

Mrs. Nine knows that this kind of ghost that directly hurts people and harms their lives is already at the level of a severe ghost, and unusual means are not expected to be of much use. She turned out and thought for a long time in the living room, this family all sat beside her and couldn't stop urging her. Mrs. Nine was unable to do so, and had to walk in again with a stiff upper lip.

She took out the red thread soaked in dog's blood from her bag and carefully tied the thread to the bride's middle finger. The ghost kept glaring at her, so Mrs. Nine pretended that she couldn't see him, but in fact her feet were already shaking.

I asked Ding Ding what the red thread was for.

Ding Ding said that the ghost had suppressed the bride's soul. That's why it sleeps for a long time, and when time passes, the person will die.

The red thread tied above the middle finger is called a soul lifter. There is an old saying that ten fingers are connected to the heart, and the heart is the abode of the soul. By doing this, Mrs. Nine wants to lift up the suppressed soul. Then she would consider how to subdue the ghost.

Mrs. Nine tied the other end of the red line on her middle finger, everything is done, she lifted her hand and pulled, but I did not expect is that, before tying the red line when everything is normal, but only by the red line upward, the bride's hand is heavy as if a stone, no matter how hard Mrs. Nine, are not moving.

The ghost watched Mrs. Nine's action, seemed to know that Mrs. Nine couldn't do anything about it, and didn't react too much.

Mrs. Nine does not believe in this evil, tugging hard on the hand of the red thread, ribbed fingers raw pain, and finally "snap" sound, the red thread broken.

In my opinion, this would have been a very normal thing, anything has its critical point, beyond which the red line will naturally break.

But Tintin said otherwise, if you can use physical things to explain, it will not be so troublesome.

He also said, at first glance, the red thread tied, is the bride and my mom's fingers, but actually tied, is the soul of two people. This is just like the legendary red thread of the Moon Lord tied to everyone's feet, which is never disconnected no matter where you go. It's just that the process of exorcising the ghosts materializes this red thread. Once the thread was broken, it meant that the soul had left the body!

When Mrs. Nine saw the red thread suddenly break, she was scared out of her wits. Coupled with the excessive force she exerted just now, her body fell backward in a flash, knocking over the things on the cabinet behind her.

The family members heard the noise, one by one, they were busy running in, seeing Mrs. Nine fall on the ground, they were also shocked. Busy to help her up, was about to ask the truth, see her face pale, straight screaming, can not, the bride's soul to be taken away by this ghost!

The crowd saw that he was incoherent, and they could not see the man covered in blood. But seeing that the bride's breath was weak and as Mrs. Nine had said, they became anxious. The groom grabbed a knife and rushed in, grabbing Mrs. Nine and asking where the ghost was! I'll cut him down!

Mrs. Nine knew they couldn't see the ghost, but in the heat of the moment, she couldn't think of anything else. Pointing to the bed, she shouted, lying next to the bride! Covered in blood, there was a mole next to her right eye!

As soon as she said this, the groom's family all froze.
