Chapter 84.
I didn't react for a few seconds, staring at him in a daze, my mind blank, no thoughts at all.
I only saw him looking at me, face that kind of affectionate expression inexplicably have a few familiar feeling, but when I came back to God, is ready to want to open his mouth to shout at him when, again, is to feel the back was a clap.
I was busy turning back to look at a glance, found to be Ding Ding and small ghosts, the two of them as if the ghost, come and go a little sound.
Ding Ding gave me a puzzled look and asked Tan Xi, what's wrong with you?
I couldn't think of answering him, I was about to tug at the man behind me, at that time I actually had a few nervous feelings in my heart, as if I was afraid that he would run away, but when I came back to my senses once again, I realized that the row of seats behind me was actually empty, and there was no shadow of anyone at all.
I quickly stood up, my eyes swept over and over again through the surrounding crowd of people waiting for the train, but did not find the slightest trace of that man.
Ding Ding and the little ghost looked at each other, their expressions were a little strange. Seems to be worried about what bad things happen. Busy asked me, "What's wrong with you, only a few minutes and you've become so paranoid.
I also do not know how to answer them, two hands because of nervousness and tightly clenched fists, just asked, that man it!
Tintin, still full of puzzled looks, said what man!
I don't know whether I just woke up or because of the anxiety in my heart, all of a sudden became dry-mouthed. Urgently said, is just sitting behind me that, looks exactly the same as in the photo of the man. Just now also in the.
The little ghost frowned, said what photo? Could it be the black and white one in your cell phone? You will not be blurred eyesight see the wrong right, if it is really inside the man, unless he is a ghost, otherwise how will still be exactly the same.
I don't know why I reacted so strongly, but as soon as I heard the kid's words, I felt as if I had been poured a pot of cold water on my head, probably because I had been guessing that this man, perhaps my father, but if he was really a ghost, then even my father was already dead? And has been dead for a long time?
I stood frozen in place, my brain short-circuited for so many seconds again, and then immediately shouted at the two of them, saying that even if it's a ghost, I must find him out!
Ding Ding looked at me with a beak and said Tan Xi, you are really sleepy, the problem is that there are no other ghosts and monsters here except for that hanging boy. Otherwise why do you need to say that, the little ghost and I would have found it earlier than you.
The little ghost clasped his hands in front of his chest and looked at me with an affirmative nod.
When I heard this, rationally speaking, naturally agree, but emotionally it is a little reluctant to admit, no matter that man is my father or not, but he is always a character related to my mother, I can never let go of my heart.
But Ding Ding and the little ghost are so sure, that there is really no ghosts and monsters here, to just Ding Ding one, I may still think that he was a prank, but the little ghost is always much more reliable than Ding Ding, the two that look, as if to tell me, you have to believe this sentence.
I blankly glanced towards the Hanged Ghost, and saw that he was standing on the side, his face was also full of concern, as if even he was denying that I had just seen everything.
Looking at their unusually resolute appearance, I even somewhat doubted myself. Could it be because I cared too much about that man in my heart, so much so that I slept in a daze and dreamt of him?
I wiped the sweat on my forehead, slowed down for a while, and only then asked Ding Ding them, saying what did you two just do?
The kid bad smile, pointed toward a small room behind me, I looked in that direction, see is the smoking area. Two people are probably addicted to smoking, just left me to run aside to smoke. Or hangman reliable ah, want to smoke can not smoke, can only be blearily in my side followed.
I shook off my head, want to go to the restroom to wash my face with cold water, and talked to them, the little ghost also told me to go back quickly, it's almost time to start boarding the train.
I nodded and walked straight towards the restroom. My face was drenched in this cold water, and I immediately sobered up a lot, thinking about this trip to Jiu Ye, Mrs. Jiu made it so mysterious, I guess it won't be smooth sailing.
I looked at myself in the mirror, couldn't help but shake my head and sighed. At this exact moment, a child suddenly walked in, looked around the restroom, and suddenly walked up to me, tugged on my shirt, and said Uncle, your name is Tan Xi, right?
I was puzzled to look toward him, this child is only five or six years old, or a naive and romantic look, a pair of eyes blinking and blinking, dull look at me, I also do not know why he will know my name, can not help but curiously survey him for a moment.
I smiled faintly, and then squatted beside him, asked him to say, it's me, little friend you find me something?
The kid smiled at once and said there was a man outside who asked me to bring this to you.
I held out my hand towards me, and it was then that I noticed he was holding a note in his hand. I frowned, and just as I took it from him, he smiled and ran out.
I guessed in my heart that this could be a prank or something from Tintin, and at first I didn't take it to heart, but when I read what was on the top of the note, I immediately froze, and busily rushed out of the restroom.
This note only wrote one sentence, Jiu Ye forbidden land, can not be involved!
The words on the note were very neatly written, not signed, but every stroke, are strong, obviously write this note, is a good level of education.
I ran out of the restroom, looked around, but did not find any suspicious action. In this waiting hall of the train station, all kinds of people will be encountered, although the venue is limited, it is still not easy to find someone who is observing us in the dark.
I shouted towards Ding Ding and the others, and the two quickly ran over, asking me what was wrong.
I showed them the note, Ding Ding immediately cursed and said Holy shit, how come everywhere we go someone is following us.
The little ghost read the note, put away his evil smile, contemplated for a while, asked me, how did this note come?
I looked around, a moment to see the previous child, has not gone far, and quickly raised his feet and chased up. Ding Ding and the little ghost followed behind me, saw me pull that child, also understand.
I try to pretend to be calm, lest too anxious to scare the child, face busy smile, said little friend, just that note is who let you give me?
The kid blinked and looked at me, his face full of innocent expression, said, that grandfather said, let me not tell you.
I looked up towards the little kid they glanced, see two people's puzzled color is not less than me, I have never been able to do anything to the child, the good thing is that the little kid also even squatted down, fake smile with me to coax up the child, I realized that the little kid is still quite a handful of people, even lie to the child do not bring a blink of an eye, and hard to use some of the excuses to buy him sweets, ah snack ah condenses out the words.
The kid thought for a moment and told us that the one who gave him the note was a grandfather with messy hair.
I thought that was too general, there were probably a hundred people like that in this train station. The Kid gave me a look that meant to tell me to take it easy. He smiled again and coaxed the kid, asking if he remembered exactly what he looked like.
I thought to myself that this little kid, even if he remembers, he can't describe it, but I don't know how to know that this kid thought for a while, and directly came to a sentence, that grandpa is a cripple!
I froze, short-circuited like a brain toward Ding Ding looked, said is not your father?
Ding Ding glared at me, puked a mouthful, said it is your father! My father died a long time ago!
I don't have the heart and his skin, but my mind can think of the situation is that and Ding Ding's father long the same crippled man. Other to mention the crippled man, will not be a corpse puppet not, that guy can not be so kind to give me a warning or something, did not want my life is a good thing.
I was busy asking the man where to go, the child said, after he gave him the note, he did not look back.
I glanced around again, guessing that the man didn't want us to find him, and was now hiding even if he hadn't left. We definitely can't find him.
Now that the situation was also clarified, I left the child to the little ghost to take care of, he took the promised snacks to go, Ding Ding heard that he wanted to buy food, he was also busy following the past. Only the hangman and I returned to our original position to wait for the car. By the way, I thought about the current situation.
That man, for the time being, let's guess as Tintin's father. Mrs. Nine left a message for me to go to this place, although it may not necessarily be a good thing, but I always felt that this trip could have a lot of gains, even if there was some information that could make things clearer, it would still be good.
But this godless Ding Ding's father, and suddenly left a message saying something about the Jiu Ye forbidden land, there are two pieces of information here, one is to say, Jiu Ye is indeed as I guessed, a key place. The second is that, since it is a forbidden place, this exploration trip can be very uncomplicated, and the content of this note is to warn us that after we set foot on it, there will definitely be unusual things that will happen, and I don't know if we can cope with it.
I in order to find out what happened, Ding Ding in order to find the Ninth Mistress, the little ghost although there is no specific purpose, but also do not feel comfortable with him to stay alone in this place, so we still have to go.
I put this note into the bag, carefully put away, perhaps there is some information on it that I can not guess through is not certain.
I waited a little longer, and after Tintin and the others returned, it wasn't long before we started lining up to get on the bus.
We bought hard sleeper tickets, because it would take two days to get from here to that province in Jiuye, and sitting on a ticket or something was just too much to bear.
The train slowly started up and the three of us sat in the car and talked about what had just happened, they were just as clueless, Tintin had bought a big bag of snacks but he soon finished them, and the time just slowly passed.
At night, when the lights went out in the car, we did not continue to talk, each fell into bed and slept. The hanged ghosts were unsurprisingly hanging over the two rows of beds and looked very scary.
But I slept very uneasily the whole way; the train kept moving, slightly rocking and bumping, and the sounds were noisy and uncomfortable.
I don't know how long I tossed and turned, but I barely managed to get some sleep, which was a bit more comforting. But just about to fall asleep, suddenly felt a slap on the face, I immediately woke up, see the little ghost and Ding Ding suddenly got up, the two stood at the head of my bed, face very ugly.
I just wanted to ask what happened, but the little ghost quickly covered my mouth, pointed toward the window, signaling me to see for myself.
I wondered in my heart, and looked towards the window, where it was still covered by the curtains, and nothing could be seen.
I got up from the bed and slowly approached, pulling the curtains open a small gap, and was dumbfounded.
I saw a ghastly white face, including their body and limbs, clinging to the window outside the train, and seeing me move, those dull eyes, looked towards me!
