Chapter 21
When there are dreams, there are naturally dreamers.
Tintin tentatively sprinkled incense ash in every corner and lit white wax on top of it.
I asked him, what is the use of this?
Tintin said, "This is called illuminating shadows. Dreams and shadows are both supposed to be things of nothingness, yet they are tangible. Ordinary dreams are naturally invisible, but if a dream demon is at work, it can see the form of the ghost.
As expected, when he had set everything up, he saw the shadows of Xie Ning and I in the room. Then it happened that I heard him speak.
I asked him, even if he saw the ghost, how could he still see me?
He glared at me and said, "You were already a Yin Hata, and now that you're possessed, you're considered a half-ghost, so naturally you can see it.
Then he started to set up a formation and broke into the dream as a human being to save me. Xie Ning and I were both invisible in the dream, so there was nothing we could do to him at all.
Tintin said it was very complicated, and it seemed to me that his formation was just lighting a bunch of candles on the ground. Ding Ding said that this is an amateur's view, which is how much distance between each candle, the length of the candles, and the time to light each one.
He said a lot, but I basically can not remember.
I only asked him, so now the dream demon escaped, and came with little movement, if we meet again, how to deal with?
Ding Ding said, the one that escaped is not the dream demon, do you think you just messed with one ghost? It's two! The Dream Demon is just the one that makes you dream. The other one with the long tongue is much more vicious than the Dream Demon. Her name seems to be Niguchi, a ghost that eats people!
And this two-mouthed woman is extremely difficult to deal with, Ding Ding said that in the deeds he knows, no one has ever really killed this ghost, he just stuffed into Xie Ning's mouth something, it is incense ash, but also can make her momentary discomfort, but there is no way to completely destroy her.
In Ding Ding s impression, the only reason for the death of the two mouths of the woman is to eat too much to be propped up by herself ……
I still couldn't help but feel a pang of nausea when I thought of Xie Ning in that state.
I bowed my head in silence for a while and said to Ding Ding that these two ghosts were not attracted to me, but came directly at me.
Ding Ding scrunched up his feet and sat on the sofa, his eyes rolled and said, What does it mean? You're so popular amongst ghosts now? There are still admirers?
I was busy saying no, but I didn't know what to say. Seeing that I looked strange, Ding Ding came over to my side and said, "What's going on? I can't help you if you don't tell me.
I thought for a while before I told the story of how I met my brother-in-law after I went out at noon, as well as Xie Ning.
Ding Ding's expression was strange, but vaguely excited. He listened and contemplated for a long time, then suddenly asked me, So the bloodper they were looking for, is it really in your hands?
I nodded and said yes. Then went into the kitchen and lifted down a box from above the cupboard.
Things like pendants don't work for me, but I keep them around just to have a thought. I did keep it at home as well, it's just that Shainin didn't find the right place for it.
The things that Lin Tian and I packed back from our old home were all placed in this box. It's just that my room was already stuffed with things and I had nowhere to store them for a while, so I just rested it on top of the cupboard for now.
Ding Ding stood behind me with interest, watching me open the box and find a small jewelry box from inside. This box is black in color, with intricate golden patterns on the sides, Ding Ding only took one look, and suddenly said, "Are these the patterns of the ghost-quelling talisman?
I took a closer look, and saw that the patterns were symmetrical, and although not very obvious, I could vaguely see the word "敕". If Ding Ding hadn't said anything, I wouldn't have paid any attention to these things.
But from the runes alone, it doesn't prove that my mom is as good as my brother-in-law at controlling and controlling ghosts. After all, in a small county, a family would more or less have a few things that were lacking in blood to avoid ghosts. Like the mirror hanging behind the door of the house, labeled with yellow talismans and so on.
A trinket box with runes drawn on it was a bit more special, but it might not be the same.
I put the rest of the stuff away and walked out into the living room with the box in my hands, placing it on the table.
Tintin studied it carefully, and I only hoped he could see something, or else with the eyesight he had, he wouldn't have been able to spot the problem with the pendant.
He didn't open the box, but looked at the runes for a long time. I was a bit strange about his behavior, but I didn't ask much.
After a while, Ding Ding said, "This is probably the most complicated runes I've ever seen. After counting them, there were eighty-one in total, and none of them were printed on the box itself. Rather, someone drew them on later.
He pointed to the box, said, and you see, although painted so many, but the distribution is very regular, even do not know the inside story of the people at first glance, feel that it is a gorgeous pattern. Completely will not think that this is a ghost suppressing rune.
Ding Ding was right about this, I don't know about runes and these things, but looking at it in my eyes, the pattern was almost like a blooming peony flower. It was hard to conjure up the idea that its related to ghosts and monsters.
I asked him what specific purpose these runes served.
Ding Ding shook his head and said that he didn't know, that for an ordinary ghost or monster, one rune would be enough. But there are eighty-one of them on here, so I guess they can all suppress the King of Hell.
As he spoke, he reached out and opened the box. A piece of blood perch, quietly lying in the middle of the box.
Ding Ding frowned and asked me, Didn't I say there was a pair? How come there is only one piece?
I said I wasn't sure, when I came home this was placed on my mom's bed. It was as if someone had deliberately placed it there. But when I opened it, there was only one piece of blood perch inside. I looked everywhere and could never find another piece.
Ding Ding's brows frowned even tighter, he didn't say anything and reached out to pick up this blood perforation, but as soon as he touched it, he suddenly shrank his hand back quickly as if he had touched a burning coal.
I hurriedly asked him what was wrong.
He said that this thing bit me!
I looked at him strangely, reached out and took the blood peroxide out of the box. It was cold in my hand, as if I had picked up a piece of ice.
Ding Ding looked at me with surprise and said, "What's wrong? Why is it okay when you touch it?
I said it was never fine, I thought it looked good when I was a kid, and I often secretly took it out to play.
Ding Ding scratched his head in doubt, said just now could it be static electricity?
Said, he stretched out a finger, and tentatively touched towards the blood peroxide in my hand.
I look at his cautious appearance, seems to be afraid of this blood peroxide suddenly grow mouth to bite him a bite, think serious bite ghosts you are not afraid of it, how to be afraid of this thing?
As I thought this, my hand holding the blood perch involuntarily probed towards Ding Ding. As soon as I touched his fingers, Ding Ding screamed again and shrank back in fear.
I did not know what was going on, but I really saw that Tintin's finger had broken a hole and blood was flowing out.
Tintin was busy putting his finger in his mouth as if he was used to it, and hurriedly said to me, "Look at the bloodperfect!
I looked down, see the top of the sticky Ding Ding's blood, blood adsorption on top of the blood perth, even a little bit did not enter the blood perth, I was busy with my fingers holding it, through the light tilted his head to look at, want to see clearly in the blood perth of the movement.
Only to see the blood into the after, toward the center of the red beans like a small point of convergence. But eventually everything calmed down, the dot did not get bigger, nor did it shrink, it was still exactly the same as before.
I looked at Ding Ding in disbelief, his eyes, still fell on the blood peroxide. I couldn't say anything about this strange phenomenon, and could only ask Ding Ding if he was alright.
Ding Ding shook his head, said nothing, but he could not see through the origin of this blood perforation, only think it is very dangerous things.
Then he suddenly turned around and said to me, "You put this thing away, it's best to keep it with you. This might be the key to solving the mystery of your ghost attraction.
I nodded, since someone was looking for it and it might be a matter of my life and death, I couldn't just leave it like before.
Ding Ding added, wait for tomorrow, let's go I find my mom to take a look, she knows more than me, may be able to see the origin of this bloodper.
I said this is the only way. But compared to this, I'm still a little worried about Lin Jing, I don't know how she is now?
Ding Ding said, right, just now only focused on studying the blood perforation, there is one thing that I did not say.
I asked what thing?
Ding Ding he stroked his chin, thoughtfully said, just now you told me that in the dream, the two mouths of the woman called Lin Tian, if it was you who made the call, it was just something you imagined in your dream. But the phone call was made by the Erkou woman and used to trick you. What she did was able to be linked to reality, just as if she had rummaged through a drawer and I had been able to discover her existence.
I understood what Tintin was saying, he was saying that if the Erkou woman had called Lin Tian, then the things I heard Lin Tian say at that time had all really happened!
Lin Tian did tell me that he was in my home, something to say to me, but in the end it was all a scam, the more I thought about it, the more alarmed I was, only to ask Ding Ding, said you suspect that Lin Tian and they are in cahoots?
Ding Ding didn't say anything, he was silent for a long time, before he said, don't rule out this possibility, but you have to know, people can control ghosts, ghosts are also able to control people. Lin Tian, he is neither a yinhata nor does he have yin and yang eyes, the fact that he can still see ghosts now would have been a strange thing. Besides, what happened today, Lin Tian really has a big problem.
I didn't say anything, my heart was like a bottle of flavors had been overturned, it was very unpleasant.
Although this was all just Ding Ding's speculation, it was not unreasonable. It was just that I really couldn't figure it out and didn't even want to believe it all.
That Lin Tian, who said he wanted to help me, suddenly became an accomplice in harming me, this transformation came so suddenly that I was not ready to accept it.
Ding Ding read my mind and said, "You don't have to think about it so much, I'm just telling you this to make you pay attention.
I said I know, will not because of this one thing to cover the conclusion, in the end, in fact, I would rather believe that he is unintentional.
Both of us did not continue to speak, each thinking about their own mind.
Not long after, suddenly heard a knock on the door, I went out to open the door, but found that it was Lin Tian standing at the door.
Seeing that it was him, I was a little stunned, and for a moment I forgot to let him in, and only stood in the doorway with the door half covered, not saying a word as I looked at him.
Lin Tian also did not say anything, his face is not as bad as earlier when he left, look slightly embarrassed, we just stood in the doorway, wait until Ding Ding roared inside, who is it?
Lin genius suddenly came to his senses, asked me, what are you standing in front of the door, do not let me go in?
I busy said no, then opened the door to let him in.
Ding Ding probe towards the door a look, see is Lin Tian, also froze for a moment, spit out his tongue toward me, did not say anything.
He entered the house, sat on the sofa, Ding Ding and I stood aside, both staring at him properly. He couldn't stand being watched by us, and strangely held back the two of us, saying What are you doing?
I was considering in my heart, since I already suspected him, I might as well just ask him the reason, after all, for Lin Tian, we always know everything from each other, not talking like this will only make things more and more troublesome instead.
I was pondering on what to say when Lin Tian suddenly said, Tan Xi, you're not still blaming me for what I said at noon, are you? When did you become so petty? I'm here to tell you that Lin Jing is fine, I didn't hide your matter from her, I told her everything, she doesn't blame you, she just couldn't accept you like this for a while. That's why she asked me to tell you to take care of yourself.
I saw that he opened his mouth, so I did not intend to continue to hide it, and said bluntly, I already know that Lin Jing is fine, you have already made it clear on the phone before.
Lin Tian froze, his eyebrows urged up, curious, what phone call?
