Chapter 229.
I trance remembered the brat's previous experience, Qin Ming's wife, is not also like him, extraordinarily care about these people who suddenly came into their lives. So no matter what they do, the heart has never been able to hate.
I suddenly, for Qin Ming is how to die this thing, a little interest are no longer, because from the beginning, I have guessed the answer, that black and white argument, is only deepening my heart guess only. He has his own crazy ambition, have the kind of revenge that want to go against the sky, but in the end all he did was just to help others do the dowry. It wasn't that he didn't have the ability to rebel against Tan Xie's two families, nor was it that he didn't want to become a member of the living dead under the one-wood coffin.
The reason is so simple that I'm a little breathless. It's just because there was someone he loved who died for him, but in the end, he may have thought that others would hate him and resent him, but when the Uncanny appeared in the world, he realized what a big mistake he made.
I don't care about the process of Qin Ming's death, all I know is that this man, in the end, didn't go with Tan Xie and the two of them to the bottom of the one-wood coffin because the impermanence there no longer had any feelings. He chose to stay in the tomb that had once tormented her, guarding her ashes placed inside, as if there is a saying that death is the same cave.
It was in this way that he did not know how many years had passed in it, be it a hundred or a thousand. When he had nothing to do, he ran to the room where the ashes were kept and wrote on the floor the passing of that year. I was there at the time, the writing on the ground did not see the end, I do not know about the things behind the stone door, behind that blank paragraph, will there be a description of the woman, also do not know whether there will be Qin Ming from time to time emotionally left regret the text.
I also don't know, the ghosts and monsters in that tomb, are there also guests who attended their wedding back then? The house where the mountain ghost and the nine-tailed fox stayed, was it the new room erected before their wedding? But I believe that without our intervention, he would have kept guard there.
Thinking of this, I suddenly do not want to continue to think more, I do not know why, it seems that each of these people, have an unpleasant past. If you think about it too much, your heart will soften. One would forget those ten thousand slaves who died on the blood pool.
I turned my back not to look at him, took a deep breath, and with a quick turn of my mind, I left the pitch-black, endless place under the Ghost Mound. Once again, I was back in my room, the light was so bright that it made me a little uncomfortable, except that the eight generations of ancestors were gone, and in their place, the person standing in the room, was my father.
He was not in the shape of Tintin's father, but the one I had seen in the train station, not much older than me, able-bodied in arms and legs, with a somewhat warm smile, and eyebrows that were surprisingly similar to mine.
My body has been placed on the bed, just lying quietly, as if asleep, only the ghost mound, is still held tightly in the arms, my dad saw me out, turned his head towards me and smiled, I look at his appearance, the soul slightly transparent, seems to be in the hands of those people before, endured a lot of torture, but does not seem to want to find a ghost mound to recuperate the idea.
He asked me a question, saying that the matter is finished?
I nodded slightly and just wanted to go back into my body, but was stopped by my dad. I couldn't help but give him a puzzled look, but he smiled and said Xiao Xi, look at you now, how do you feel about being a ghost?
I gently stretched my body and let out a laugh as well, saying that it was light and felt insubstantial.
He nodded and said Being a ghost is like this, staying in this world, you can t help but compare it with the feeling of being a human being, but that feeling of being ungrounded will always haunt you, making you feel more and more anxious in your heart, wanting to find out a place that suits you.
I said, this is one of the tortures of staying in the world?
He gave a faint "En", then suddenly smiled and said that many ghosts wish to find a home for themselves. But then again, I was under the one-wooden coffin, a little understanding of what happened before, although not much, but and those living dead contact, but also can pry into a lot of news.
I sat down and looked at him and asked, The matter of the impermanent ashes, you also knew about it at that time.
He did not argue, only like a memory, said that year from the hands of Lin Tian his father in that piece of ancient jade, I know the existence of the tomb, the heart vaguely understand, there and everything under the one-wood coffin, has a great connection, we went to look for the first time, but it is not clear what exactly need to look for some things, as if looking for a needle in a haystack, just think of being able to get some useful clues. I didn't realize that I would have to wait for my death to enter the coffin before I could get the clues.
When my dad heard about the impermanence in the world under the coffin, he had the idea of going to look for it for the second time in his heart. He said that the ashes are the last thing a person leaves in the world, nothing can taint it, with it, sprinkled on the impermanence, the seal suppressing the impermanence will disintegrate, he once wanted to get that kind of thing, thinking that with it, when he returned to under the one-wooden coffin and unlocked the impermanence, all of this, it would be over, and I would still be able to live the same kind of ordinary life I used to live. Unfortunately, everything that happened in the tomb completely destroyed this hope of his.
Said here, he slightly emotional, seems to be a little guilty, looked at me and said, in the end, I still did not do it, now instead rely on you to help.
I said to get to this point, I was also helped over, to only me alone, I do not know how many times I died.
My dad faintly laughed, but this smile soon stopped, he hesitates up, seems to have something to say, but deflated for a long time before opening his mouth to ask me, I heard eight generations of ancestors say, you have already planned to go to solve these things?
I nodded, said although a bit of trouble, need to retrieve the blood perch, will be a one-wood coffin under the stone door to open, and that below the living dead too many to count, I still do not know how to deal with them ……
My dad reached out and patted me on the shoulder and said It's not difficult to deal with, you see I understand, the body is dreaming and building up a world, then the body is destroyed. With only the soul left, it's much better to deal with.
My dad said this lightly, I know he knows in his heart, things to this point, there is no going back, so it is not persuading me to give up, just want to give me a pump. But these things, I also understand, but a few of us, compared with that number of ghosts, like an ant in front of an elephant. And I don't know if something will happen in the middle of the journey, if they all crawl out from under the one-wood coffin, it's almost the level of an army. It would be easy to kill us.
But I think about it, I can not help but frown suspiciously, said not right ah, I once saw your body in those coffins in the Xie family ancestral temple, if the body is destroyed, it can end that dream, then you should have disappeared by now is right, your body, has already been beaten by the impermanent wailing rod into powder.
My dad smiled faintly and said no, if you are referring to the twenty-eight coffins up there, what is placed inside, is not my body. The twenty-eight coffins are like gatekeepers, and when a new body comes in, one will be thrown into the coffin from inside. It felt like you had to work for them for a long time before you were eligible to join them. But your mom saw the signs at the time, and thought that this kind of rule, seemed to be just for the living, and she put my body into the one-wood coffin, and got one from the mountains that had just died recently, and put it in the coffin outside. No one but you wanted to see what was in there anyway.
I suddenly realized that the corpses I saw at that time had already rotted out of shape, and could not tell who they really were, and indeed no one would be so kind as to want to do a restoration of their former appearance or something. But even so, I still can't help worrying.
My dad seems to understand my hidden worries, and laughed, said xiao xi, worry is useless, I am now the body has no, want to come back to life, you need to go back to the bottom of the coffin to go to the trip, but I now have no idea of rebirth, this time to go back, to help you listen to the movement, to give you as an inside man.
I didn't react first, couldn't help but take a breath, but immediately after, my brain seems to explode like a thunderbolt, busy rushing my dad said you want to go back, then if we succeed, aren't you the same as following the dead under the coffin of unlucky?
My dad shook his head bashfully, said I am dead, nothing more unlucky than death, we should not have been in the meeting, can have this period of time, I have been very satisfied. You are going to succeed, I am just along with them, by the impermanent brought to a place where I should go. Maybe, I can still meet your mom ……
I do not know what to say, I did not realize that no matter how I choose, Qin Ming's words are right, no matter what we do, we need to pay a certain price.
My heart inexplicably sour, remembering that I would have been a person, after my father left, I will return to the original appearance, as if Xia Ru Xuan's state when the heart is very bad taste.
But at this time, suddenly someone knocked on the door of the room, and then Lin Tian probed in, frowned and looked at me, said Tan Xi, someone looking for you.
I feel strange in my heart, our people are basically already here, where else would someone come to look for me, just look at Lin Tian's expression, there seems to be some hesitation, I don't know what the reason is, but it's also impossible to go out to meet people with this kind of posture right now, I can only go back inside my body first.
When I opened my eyes, the Hanged Ghost had already come in, as if he knew I was going out, he smiled and got me a wheelchair. I sat on it with difficulty, but out of the room to see, nothing special people, blankly looked at Lin Tian, see him flinging his hand and pointing to the door of the room, saying that it is still outside, did not let in. I was completely confused about what he was posing, but had no choice but to open the door myself, but once I saw the person standing outside, I immediately froze.
The little ghost was there looking at me with unblinking eyes, faintly smiled and said Tan Xi, I'm back.
Chapter 230: Previous Events
The little ghost looked a bit rushed, as if he didn't know how his arrival would be treated by the others. I looked at him, still wearing the same clothes as before, which were already a bit worn out, and the person had lost a lot of weight, and wasn't very energetic. It just didn't matter what others thought, there were some things that found their way between the two of us, and even after he left, I was helped by him quite a bit. Therefore looking at the extraordinarily constricted him, I smiled and answered, saying you're finally back.
He scratched his head awkwardly and asked me if I could come in.
I was busy winking at the Hanged Ghost, he pushed me to let out the door of the room, the little ghost stumbled for a moment, before he stepped in. Lin Tian sat on the sofa and just looked up, not saying a word. Ding Ding was originally still noisy, suddenly also quieted down, biting his collar, half a long time before he raised his hand, said long time no see na.
The little ghost smiled at him, did not say anything, he seemed to want to sit down, but also extraordinarily constrained, and finally stood next to the sofa did not move. I saw these movements in his eyes, as if a person who had been away from home for too long, suddenly came back and was very uncomfortable with the people and things at home. Therefore, I busily smiled and pushed Lin Tian to move away a little bit before greeting the little brat and sitting down.
I had wanted to first exchange a few polite words with him, so as to ease away this slightly awkward atmosphere, but the little ghost suddenly pulled out a ghost mound from his accompanying bag and placed it on the table in front of Ding Ding, saying that this was something I had found on the road when I arrived, and that it seemed to be trying to rush this way, but had been scared off by the impermanent aura in the house just now.
Ding Ding face showed a puzzled expression, reached out to the front of the ghost mound to hold up, up and down to play with a look, but can not see what the name, so rushed to the side of the hanging ghost nuu mouth, hanging ghost will understand, immediately rushed to the head of the ghost mound into the, but soon back, and gesticulated at Ding Ding, the body curved into an S shape.
Ding Ding frowned and looked at the hangman s appearance and asked him to say, This is …… a snake inside?
The hangman snapped his palm and gave a thumbs up at Ding Ding. Then the little ghost smiled and said Inside is a part of the snake on your body, probably seeking your odor, I don t know if it is useful to you, but first help you put it away.
I remembered that when the human face tree was burned down I had also seen the soul of that green snake myself, but then I couldn't care about it, and a lot of things happened when I came back, so I couldn't help but forget about it. However, Ding Ding has not yet spoken, the side of the nine Mrs. as if swindled, hahahahaha laughed, usually is the sky is falling she has no reaction, now suddenly come so a bit, so that we all froze.
Mrs. Nine snatched the jar from Ding Ding's hand, as if she had picked up a treasure, laughing and muttering to herself, this half of the soul, finally appeared, Ding Ding, now the snake spirit on your body, there is a way to remove it.
When Ding Ding heard this, his face was delighted, and he tugged at Mrs. Nine, saying, Really? Mom, you have a method?
Mrs. Nine nodded her head repeatedly, saying that she originally thought that she was trapped in the human face tree and had no hope in this life, but she just didn't think that there would be a day when she could come back, so I'll just separate your spirits and return them to their respective places!
I heard that Mrs. Nine has a way, but also happy for Ding Ding, the snake spirit in his body has always been a hidden danger, although it brings him a hundred poisonous benefits, but also risked the risk of being occupied by the body of the green snake. Now that there was a chance to get rid of this thing, no wonder Mrs. Nine was also so excited.
She hurriedly stood up, pulled Ding Ding a hand, and said go, how about we go prepare what we want, and do it tonight.
As soon as the words fell, the two of them hurried outside, not even saying a single superfluous word to us. It was as if they ignored all of us, causing Lin Tian to shrug his shoulders at me, expressing his helplessness.
But the brat looked at them, his face was still very happy, and smiled before turning his head towards me, Tan Xi, there's something else I want to talk to you about.
I reached out and patted his shoulder, signaling him not to be so polite, he nodded, but his face became heavy all of a sudden and said, I know where the painted skin is.
Lin Tian and I froze at the same time, busy opening his mouth to ask him, saying, how do you know.
The little ghost said, don t you find that day when you were captured by the painted skin, I was also present …… but I am out of the soul, you can t see me coming. After you got out of danger that day, I went after the painted skin, anyway, she could not see my movements.
My current feeling, as if the sky falls pie, even eight generations of ancestors are exempt from wasting time to look for, is to save me a lot of time, after all, I am now not much time.
I that can not resist the excitement in my heart, eagerly asked where the painting skin?
Xie family shrine!
The little ghost categorically said these three words, I inevitably some surprise, although and Qin Ming conversation, I had considered the painting skin may also have wanted to enter the stone door after the idea, but always feel a little unrealistic, but now she did bring the blood peroxide to the Xie family ancestral temple, in addition to this, I really can not think of what purpose she would have, so that, in the end, her and my purpose is indeed the same, but unfortunately, Lu Yao can not trust anyone, but I can not trust anyone. It's just a pity that Lu Yao can't trust anyone and never shows her true heart. Our current state was like walking two different paths, both she and I were walking with extra effort, occasionally crossing paths in the middle, but in the end, we would still arrive at the same destination.
Seeing that I fell silent and my thoughts flew out for a moment, Little Ghost and Lin Tian couldn't help but open their mouths and shout my name, which brought me back to my senses. I busily asked a question, saying did she go down to the Dokki Coffin?
The little ghost shook his head and said that he wasn't too sure, he just followed to the destination and rushed back to tell me the news, as for how the situation is now, he couldn't say at all.
I sighed, I don't know why, but actually a little feeling of regret, my mind even appeared a picture of the scene of the painted skin fighting the living dead, I can't help but somewhat hope that she can make a mess. However, even if we knew the current situation, it was impossible for us to rush over there right now, for one thing, my injuries were not healed, and for another, Ding Ding and Mrs. Nine were still planning to solve the problem of the snake spirit.
There is no way, I can only put my mind down and talk more with the little ghost about what happened after he left, Lin Tian immediately came to the spirit, saying Quickly tell me, what is going on with your life-swapping.
I had thought that in the little kid here will find an answer, but finally found that the little kid himself is not clear, talking about this thing, he still can not help but look at me a few eyes, slightly sad, I thought the changeless said that the exchange of life, just to avoid my death, and later realized that this so-called life, referring to the fate of the two people in fact, the changeless exactly what we two did, which I am not clear, may have to die after the death, but I do not know, I do not know. I don't know, maybe I have to die before I can understand.
Lin Tian immediately felt a little bored, I am not very interested in this matter, I am more concerned about, is that I came out from under the coffin, where the little ghost went.
Which know he laughed, said he was wrong, as early as before I came out, there is a Tan Xi from under the coffin climbed out , he always thought it was me, look at my body bruises, with the ghost car with "me" back, that person at first also pretended to be and I am very familiar with the appearance, let the ghost will send him to Lin Tian's door, just in the car! The kid said something like what the kid did before, no one will be willing to forgive him words, the kid heart, in fact, also worried that there will be such a situation, so to send that person off after the car, on their own to leave ……
I listened to him this statement, when the little ghost ran into the person, should be Xie Chengfeng only right, as if my father said, they need to go back to the coffin, to be able to resurrected in a human form over, counting time, also almost coincide. It's just that I always thought something happened to him halfway through, I didn't expect this.
I also asked him when he realized that "I" is not right, the kid smiled faintly, said from the beginning, there are some suspicious places, such as that person does not have a soul bell. But what he said, just hit the little ghost's mind, make him depressed for a period of time, until one day, he wanted to come to say goodbye, decided to completely leave this place, with the ghost car, to go to a different kind of life he has never experienced, but also at that time, he saw the two I. I asked him when he realized that the "I" was not right, for example, the person did not have a spirit bell.
I listened to him recounting things, and then I realized that the day I came back from under the one-wood coffin, the little ghost was actually in the neighborhood, he watched me come back, but before he had time to greet me, he suddenly saw Xie Chengfeng who was with Ding Ding Lin Tian. I also did not expect that he was still the first person to realize that my situation was not right, in addition to my eight generations of ancestors. It was at that time that the little ghost hesitated, he wanted to figure out what was going on and thus decided to leave his soul and follow me.
At this time I jacked in and asked, saying that you don't have a soul invocation bell, and you are still able to leave your soul?
He smiled slightly, showing a little tired look, said it is impossible, that time he, and my previous state is not much difference, he wanted to leave the soul, you have to fake death, so the heart is ruthless, went to buy a lot of medicine, swallowed once, if not the ghost car, perhaps he is now really dead. Anyway, taking advantage of the time of delirium after taking the medicine, he also achieved his purpose, came to my side, observed for a while, which identified down my identity.
I did not think that he dared to take such a big risk, this is completely taking their own lives, but the little ghost said this, the face of the expression to the admission, seemingly did not put it on the mind.
I just do not understand how the ghost car to help him, the little ghost said, the ghost car with his body, sent him to the hospital door, although someone found, the hospital can not let him die at the gate, it gave him a gastric lavage to resuscitate a little bit, but because of the contact can not contact other people, he did not have much money on the body, so at that time he was in the hospital, as if it were a burden, even the doctors did not know how to do it well.
Speaking here, he suddenly paused for a moment and said, Tan Xi, do you still remember that after you came back, you got a video surveillance at home? In fact, at that time, taking advantage of the fact that you were asleep and didn't have much resistance, I borrowed your body, as if possessed, and ran to the hospital to pay my own medical bills. I would have liked to talk to you clearly, but thought, maybe I can help you in the dark, exposed, others will even count me in. So in the end, I also did not appear out, or rely on the ghost car previously recognized some small ghosts and monsters, to give you a little false memories, so that you think you still stay at home did not go out of the door, you then, should also be quite confused it.
Chapter 231: The Sound of Sorrow
I remembered the video, at that time I thought I was schizophrenic, I did not think it was the little ghost to make such an accident, but then we went to the tomb, the little ghost also followed us all the way, it is always impossible that this method back and forth, I looked at his somewhat haggard face, could not help but ask him, saying that you will not be discharged only today, right?
The little ghost nodded wordlessly, said anyway, the hospital paid the money, also counted as someone to take care of, I can't die, just the soul does not go back, can not wake up. Waiting to see all these things are settled, I then went back and did the formalities for discharge from the hospital, thinking to come and say a word to you guys.
I think back to what he did during this period of time, the heart can not help but be touched, but the mouth can not say what words of thanks, and finally reached out and patted his shoulder heavily, as if all the gratitude, are placed in this palm.
Later I asked him, said you still plan to go now?
He was silent for a long time, didn't say anything, as if his heart hadn't made up his mind yet, as a result, it was my father who walked out from the house, heard our conversation, laughed, and said that since he had no place to go, then he would stay here, anyway, this house is very big, and there are many rooms, so you can just pick one.
Lin Tian also laughed and said Stay, where you used to live, where you still live now. It's not like we're outsiders.
The little ghost looked at them, tightly pursed lips, I see his heart, in fact, has already thought of the worst intentions, just now, his eyes slightly red, pause for a moment, before trembling asked me, said can it ……
I smiled, said your room is empty, so big house, more people are good.
He hesitated for a moment, which then nodded heavily, I see him willing to stay, heart is also very happy, let Lin Tian go out to buy some good food, so a big house people live together, seems to have never gathered a meal or something. Lin Tian is still a bit lazy and unwilling, but he is the only one left in the house who can move. The little ghost grabbed want to help, but in the end by me to pull back, always feel that at this time, no matter what we do, he just need to watch on the line.
Waiting for Lin Tian went out, my father sat next to us with a smile, looking at us with interest, making the little kid are a little embarrassed, I can not figure out what my father is selling, just want to ask him a question, he suddenly opened his mouth and said, Xiaoxi, you and the little kid who is a little older?
I was puzzled by his words, in fact, I myself am not clear about the age of the brat, can not help but turn his head toward him to look at the past, to see him also shook his head, said I do not know how old I am …… also do not know when my birthday is.
I was slightly surprised, but remembered his matter of life, could not help but sigh. But my dad is still smiling, said to the little kid, this way, I see you and Tan Xi is almost the same, your things, I also heard him mention, I have an idea, you see if you don't mind, you two will recognize the pro as a brother later, you don't mind me, you can shout my father with Xiao Xi, can't open the mouth, call uncle can also.
Hear him say this, not only is the little kid, even I also froze for a moment, I think my dad said this too suddenly, the whole thing as if anxious to listen to others call his father, even if you want to recognize the little kid as a godson, but also first with me to say no. But then no one when I privately. But then no one when I asked him privately, said why suddenly get so out?
My father sighed softly, said to me, Xiao Xi, you those words, I heard in the house, other people's lives are almost hit, and these years is not easy. I wondered if there was any way to thank him properly, but after thinking about it, it seems that materially, the little ghosts are not too valued, and you don't have that condition to send any good things. Finally, I do not know how, a flash in the brain, I think, send him a home, even those ghosts, all hope that they can have a home, he drifted outside for more than 20 years, may also want to have a place where they can put their minds at ease.
When I heard his words, the softest part of my heart felt as if it had been poked and prodded, and I didn't say a word in the end.
On the contrary, when the little kid heard my father's proposal, he froze for a long time, looking at my father and then at me, I myself was actually indifferent, so I just waited for his answer. Seeing that he did not know how to open his mouth, my dad smiled and patted him, saying look at you as if you are not too willing, not dislike my early death, a ghost, right?
The little ghost was busy shaking up his head, his voice was a little choked and said No no, I just didn t think …… of it.
He said here, suddenly stopped, eyes more and more red, there are tears in the inside spinning, I am afraid he cried up, then joked, said don't grumble, my family is a little poor, mainly because I am poor, but certainly feed you well will not starve. But first, I want to be a brother.
He raised the corners of his mouth, gently laughed, don't turn your head in the hard to wipe his eyes, this is only at my dad nodded. My dad burst out laughing even more.
That evening, was a big gathering of all of us, it can also be said that, for such a long time, I have never seen them so happy, we grouped around a table, even if the eight generations of ancestors and my father hanged ghosts they do not eat these things, but there is no one absent, talking and laughing, drunk, Ding Ding also ran to the table to dance, Lin Tian and Tan Lan laughs, only the ninth wife of a person afraid that he fell from the table, anxiously called again and again, and then called out to me. Only Mrs. Nine was afraid that he would fall down from the table, shouting and scolding. Finally, the meal is full of wine, we posed, made a group photo, the hangman this guy obviously photo can not shoot his figure, but also inserted into the center of the position, the result of the photo looks as if the middle of the empty piece of it.
My dad see all things ended, and everyone announced the recognition of the kid as godson news, originally we all think that said on the line, but the eight generations of ancestors immediately did not comply, said what also want to get a serious ceremony, and is a tea and kowtow, I'm okay, the kid was tossed around, and at the end of the day, there is a change of name this, the kid's original name was called impermanence, but now we do the family, but also want to follow! I surnamed Tan, my father in the bite of the word in this regard is not much talent, even my name is also my grandfather to take. Since then there is no way out, or can only ask the eight generations of ancestors.
But after burying his head in thought for a while, he suddenly turned to the little kid and said, "Let's call you Tan Hei, okay?
At first glance, I thought I was shouting at me, but the eight generations of ancestors immediately shook his head at me and said that this Hei is not that Hei. Your name is light, and this name means dawn.
I listen to this meaning is very good, but I'm afraid to call up easy to confuse the two people, but finally or Ding Ding said, I do not care what name to change, anyway, my name Tan Xi, that is, called you, called the brat, that is, called the new Tan晞. As he spoke, he also quietly reached out and cornered the Kid, saying that you don't mind anyway, right?
The Kid laughed, and I knew he probably didn't mind what people called him because of those things in the past, but he was just as happy to have such a name all of a sudden, and still kowtowed to his eight generations of ancestors.
We fooled around some more, and only stopped when it was almost late at night. We were all exhausted, and Ding Ding also had to do with the matter of splitting the souls, so it only subsided a little. I had thought that after everything was over, we could repeat this day of laughter and fun, but I didn't realize that when I recalled this day long afterward, I couldn't help but feel a little sad, because this time, it was the first and only time.
We didn't pack up the things in the room, Mrs. Nine saw that it was about time, so she took Ding Ding up towards the rooftop, ready to separate Ding Ding and Green Snake's souls there. When the two of them left, they also greeted me, saying that they needed to use the soul invocation bell to beat out Ding Ding and Green Snake's souls first. I wanted to go up with them, but because of my leg difficulties, I ended up handing the soul invocation bell over to the little ghost, who did it for me.
I don't know what they need to do on the roof, I just sit by the window, looking forward to them to be able to complete all this smoothly, turn my head towards the sky to look at, I realized that tonight the sky is cloudy, the clouds are very thick, can't see the moon, the temperature seems to be lowered again a lot, it looks as if it won't be long before it rains maybe.
I don't know how, inexplicably started to stay, I don't know so after how long, finally or hanged ghost in the back patted me a hand, I woke up, in a trance also saw someone from the outside of the world that the light is dimly lit run into the building, as if also know will change the sky, footsteps a little hurried.
There was an inexplicable sense of unease in my heart, and the previously joyful atmosphere slowly sank. Just can't say where it is wrong, but still can't help but punch the hanged ghost said, let him go to see Ding Ding they are going well or not, but don't want to express too much understanding, let people think that I'm paranoid and suspicious of affecting the mood, and finally found an excuse that it will rain soon.
The Hanged Ghost nodded gently and turned to go. I watched him disappear in front of my eyes, and couldn't help but shrink my neck, feeling that it was still a bit cold. Looking at the curtains were blown by the wind swinging, I can not help but reach out to close the window, but I did not expect, I have just explored the head, suddenly saw a person's shadow, brushing through the window, fell directly to the ground downstairs, raised "plopping" a muffled sound.
At the same time, the wind seems to be bigger, blowing the curtains one by one beat against the glass. Almost at the same time, I heard Ding Ding shouting from the roof, screaming heartbreakingly, shouting mom!
My whole body froze there, I couldn't help but tense up, and slowly looked my head out towards the window, and saw Mrs. Nine lying motionless on the concrete floor in front of the building like a lifeless doll. Underneath her body, all of it was blood.
Chapter 232: Scourge
My dad and Xia Ruxuan they heard the commotion, busy ran out, saw me frozen by the window, eagerly asked, say what happened?
I turned my head to look at them, both of their expressions are a little tense, I opened my mouth to say something, but found that my voice also can not control the shivering, not because of fear, but because this thing happened too suddenly, some unanticipated, as if the person who is clearly still standing in front of your eyes, the blink of an eye on the death of the same, the heart of the heart has a kind of let a person can not suppress the cold.
My dad saw me not say anything, hurriedly ran to the side of me, towards the outside to look at a glance, the face suddenly changed, just at this time, the original has gone back to Tan Lan suddenly pushed the door open, also a puzzled expression. My dad glanced at him and shouted at him, saying You come with me!
As soon as the words fell, the two of them ran out towards the building one after the other. I know they are going to look at the situation of Mrs. Nine, I now have some brain can not react, just over and over again hoping that she is not a big deal, at the same time also shouted at Xia RuXuan, said you come over to help me a little bit, send me to the roof of the building, Ding Ding they have an accident!
Xia RuXuan know the situation is urgent, did not ask more, yanked over my wheelchair, pushed me out, the house has seven floors so high, just to the need to build the elevator standard. I'm in the elevator, watching the numbers change little by little, not sure if the heart is anxious for the sake of the slower, really have a kind of want to curse the impulse of the mother. Only to the top floor, the elevator door is not completely open, I was in a hurry to go out from the inside, but the wheelchair was stuck for a while, I directly tumbled to the ground, Xia Ruxuan busy to follow up, pulled me a hand, said cousin you do not rush, I back you!
He gritted his teeth and yanked me up, I can't care about what is polite or not polite and so on, directly on his back, to the top of the building also need to climb a flight of stairs from the safe passage, it looks like he is also a little bit of a strain, just wait for us to go up and look at it, the door is open, according to common sense, Ding Ding, they are doing all these things, the door should be counter-locked from the inside is right.
But we just went up a little bit, suddenly we saw the little ghost ran out from inside, I saw his look very panic, I guess I did not expect to meet me. His forehead was sweating profusely, and before I could say anything, I heard him say, "The two-mouthed woman is here.
I was shocked in my heart, suddenly remembered that figure from the rush to run into the building, just the black light can not see clearly, but now think carefully, there are really so many points and Xie Ning similar.
Xia Ruxuan heard this name, look suddenly sad, almost did not wait for me to speak, rushed towards the rooftop. Anxious brat pulled me back and said Tan Xi you wait!
His words fell, directly to the soul bell race to my hands, I looked at him, the heart seems to have a sudden bottom as if, busy greeting Xia Ruxuan rushed inside. We just went in, we saw Xie Ning dodging left and right there, Ding Ding was so angry that his face was red, and his mouth was still tearing his heart and lungs and shouting chaotically. I saw him holding a bow in his hand, aiming at Xie Ning, an arrow shot over, but Xie Ning's reaction is also very fast, the arrow has not come to her face, was dodged by her, I look at the situation is not right, directly on the soul bell in the brain a knock, a boom out of the soul, Xie Ning's eyes immediately rushed to look at me over, the face of a shock, but more is kind of surprised color. But immediately after that, I heard her say, Tan Xi, so you are the impermanent!
I didn't answer, but just raised the invocation bell in my hand and made a gesture to ring it, but Xie Ning's face changed, suddenly turned around, took a big step, and directly jumped down from the upper floor. Ding Ding look at him want to escape, probably now even let her soul to have a heart, but also do not care about anything, chasing on the edge of the building a, scared the little ghosts are panicked. Or hanging ghost at the edge, the rope rushed to him a throw, directly wrapped in his waist, as if I was the first to be sent upstairs by him to throw down, so that he safely landed on the ground. I then breathed a sigh of relief and shouted back towards the little ghost and the others, saying you guys go back to the house and stay there, be careful.
I watched as the little ghost nodded and followed Xie Ning's example, also taking a jump from upstairs. Anyway, I'm a spirit now, I can't die from the fall.
Only when I landed on the ground, I saw my father and Tan Lan in front of the building, the two looked like they were trying to get Mrs. Nine's body into the house, Mrs. Nine didn't know how many bones had been broken in her body, and her whole body was already somewhat deformed. I could not bear to look at her, hurriedly followed Ding Ding's footsteps.
Xie Ning running very panic, her forehead behind the mouth open, but the tongue did not stick out of the mouth, seems to know that can not deal with the pursuit of Ding Ding and me the same. Ding Ding shouted like crazy, the arrow in his hand was a little unsteady, but as soon as he caught a chance, he flew an arrow at her. One hit Xaining squarely in the stomach, piercing in through her back.
Xie Ning s footsteps paused for a moment, she turned back fiercely, viciously looked toward us, but there was no blood flowing out of her body, perhaps there was just a feeling of pain that prevented her from continuing to move forward. But the next second, I suddenly saw the mouth behind her head cracked, slowly separated from the back of the brain, as if a person grew out of the head, with a big mouth open and a tongue dragging on the outside, first the head, and then slowly had arms and legs, and when you look closely, it's as if a deformed child, lying on the back of Xie Ning's head!
This ghost thing gave us a spiteful look, and with a huff, it directly detached itself from Xie Ning's body and scurried towards the grass. Xie Ning's body lurched and fell directly to the ground, no longer alive.
It was only then that I remembered what I had heard before, that the second mouth woman was possessed by other spirits and ate herself away from her own soul. Now it seemed that the guy knew he couldn't escape and was preparing to break away from this body to escape. Ding Ding also saw its intentions and directly shouted at me.
I was already prepared for this and jingled the bell in my hand. Now I more or less have some tricks, that ghost thing as if hit a layer of invisible wall, the body thud a backward flying back, only the child's hands and feet as big as the ground stirred indiscriminately, turn to the side of the escape, I hand bell once again shaken, it is like before, backward again.
Ding Ding rushed up at once, without saying anything, directly took an arrow and stabbed at it, but this arrow didn't seem to have any effect on it, as if Ding Ding had said before, he also didn't know of anything that could extinguish this kind of existence of the two-mouthed woman.
This child-like monster fell to the ground, ugly as hell, a pair of eyes dripping around, look at me, and look at the angry Ding Ding, mouth wide open, suddenly laughed, with a kind of shrill voice, said, I've been dead for seventy-four years, and I've never been pushed to this point, but in the face of the impermanence, I've kind of admitted it. However, Tan Xi, do you know how to deal with me?
I tightened the soul bell in my hand, originally thought, maybe I can use the method that the little kid taught me last time, to lure the black impermanence to capture it. But then I thought, that might involve the ghosts of the hanged, and do not know how, I always feel in my heart do not look at this ghost thing completely disappeared, I can not swallow that breath like.
Ding Ding might have been thinking the same thing as me, but he tried everything, including slingshotting the bowstring and burning it with fire, but it didn't work on this thing. Even though he was full of anger, he still had nowhere to vent it. Instead, the ghost thing laughed harder and harder, unable to, he finally looked towards me.
I habitually took a deep breath, gritted my teeth and asked it one word at a time, saying why, do you still want to come and find our trouble!
It turned its head head to look at me and said You are the scourge ah, how can I keep you, if we make any more trouble in the middle, then our plans will not all go down the drain.
I roared angrily and said Can you kill us!
It smiled again and said Now it seems a bit difficult. Previously, we only felt that you have a soul invoking bell in your hand is a little strange, and then Xie Chengfeng also said that there is an impermanent around you guys, and always thought that it was the person called the little ghost, but I did not expect that it would be you Tan Xi.
I sneered and said, who is the impermanent, what does it have to do with you!
It moved slightly, said, the relationship can be big, we originally thought that, if the changeless does not die, it will not have this kind of appalling power, only thinking to tie that person back, wait until under the one-wood coffin, and then kill him, what kind of scene will appear, you understand in your heart. And since I am here, I was originally prepared to give you a ride when I tied him up. How could I have known that there would be such an accident.
I realized that it is rushing towards the little ghost, they want to kill him under the one-wooden coffin, after turning into an impermanent will inevitably cause a big mess, perhaps they also understand that the living dead under the one-wooden coffin is not easy to deal with. Unfortunately, the world is unpredictable, just slightly puzzled me is that the last time I was captured by Lu Yao and the others, at that time she escaped because of my breath, should have already known that there is something wrong with me. When the little ghost came back, she didn't mention the whereabouts of the Erkou girl either, so it seems that all of this was also something that they had devised early on, and Lu Yao didn't tell the Erkou girl about the changes that had happened to me either. I'm not sure if it's because they couldn't get in touch with each other for a while, or if it's just a relationship where they're using each other.
But Ding Ding couldn't listen anymore and only rushed at me, Tan Xi, I'm going to bring it back, I'll torture it if I can't kill it!
I nodded my head, and the face of the ghostly thing in front of me instantly became hideous, shouting at Ding Ding, saying You dare!
As soon as it spoke, it made a pose to pounce at Ding Ding, I was busy shaking the bell in my hand, its face sank, which made it hold back. Ding Ding took out the arrow in his quiver that was sealed with ghost fire, released the ghost fire inside, and fiercely poked it towards its body. I then saw the Erkou female's body suddenly fade a lot, and in no time at all, it screamed and disappeared from our sight. And on that arrow, a black color also inexplicably rose.
When I saw that it was over, I looked at Ding Ding and saw him looking at the arrow, the expression on his face could not be seen as sad or happy. I was silent for a while before I said to him, go back.
He nodded and took a deep breath, as if he wanted to expel the sadness from his heart. I really didn't know if he would break down when he went back and saw Mrs. Nine.
Just as we turned around and were about to leave, I suddenly saw Xia Ruxuan standing at the back, he was looking at the body of Xie Ning on the ground that had fallen aside out of focus. Hearing my shout, this only reacted, said cousin, can I take her …… back ……
Chapter 233: On the Road
I looked at Xia Ruxuan's face full of sadness, to be honest that look was no better than Ding Ding, but because there were some scruples in my heart, I didn't open my mouth right away, but instead glanced towards Ding Ding to ask for his opinion. He bowed his head in silence for a while, considered for a long time, before saying, forget it, take it away if you want to take it away.
Only then did Xia Ruxuan nod gratefully, reaching out to carry Xie Ning's body from the ground.
We went back very slowly, and every step we took seemed to be extraordinarily heavy. But no one urged anyone, as if everyone had something different in mind. But this road, always has an end, not long, the building, has appeared in front of our eyes, the lights of the house is brightly lit, will be reflected in their faces a little pale.
We walked up, and when we came to the door, Tintin suddenly asked me to wait, he stopped and took a deep breath, before reaching out and pushing the door open, taking the lead.
Everyone was in the room, but the atmosphere, the silence, was frightening. As soon as we entered, almost everyone's eyes turned towards us, and everyone's expression looked so sad, as if they were announcing unfortunate news.
At a glance, I saw Mrs. Nine sitting on the sofa, and across from her, a corpse was parked, covered with a white cloth, so I couldn't see what kind of body it was. But I already had a clear idea of what was going on, so I didn't intend to look at it now. Just the ghost of Mrs. Nine sitting on the sofa, the heart is very bad taste.
Ding Ding slowly walked towards her, his mouth pursed tightly together, standing beside Mrs. Nine, but never made a sound. Mrs. Nine's eyes are still blind, but she seems to be able to feel Ding Ding's presence, reached out to touch towards Ding Ding's body, first touching the arm, and then just clutched his hand, pulling him to his side, holding Ding Ding's head with both hands, and with a very calm voice said, "It's okay ah …… it's okay". ……
But Ding Ding heard this, tears immediately fell, he ambushed on Mrs. Nine's knees, as if he could no longer control his emotions, bawling. It was also at this time that there was a rumble of thunder outside the house, and a pouring rain, raging down. But no matter how noisy it was outside, Ding Ding's crying became almost the only sound I could hear in this cold night.
I don't dare to look at him, this sound seems to be contagious, let a person's heart that kind of sadness is getting thicker and thicker, I don't look away, I walked towards my room. Entered the door to see, only to realize that his body is also placed on the bed, I returned to the soul, will be smothered in the head under the head, as if wanting to Ding Ding's cries isolated as if, but that kind of back of the emotions spread out, it will not be able to linger. It was as if the kind of gloom that followed the death of my brother-in-law had just shown signs of clearing, only to be blocked by even thicker clouds.
I don't know how long this passed, but suddenly I heard the door to my room being pushed open, and immediately afterward, someone sat down on the edge of my bed. I slowly opened my eyes to see that it was the Kid, who looked at me, looking a little rattled, and after a long moment of silence, he asked me if I was alright.
I took a deep breath and sat up straight from the bed, shaking my head as if I was lying to myself. After another pause, , I just asked him to say that at that time on the rooftop, how things turned out like this.
The little ghost held back the emotions in his heart and recalled a bit before telling me that at that time on the rooftop, he used the soul inviting bell and knocked out the souls of Ding Ding and the green snake, and Mrs. Nine took a great deal of effort to separate the soul of the green snake in the ghost mound, which had already melted into one with Ding Ding's soul.
Although it took a little longer, but still all went well, until the last step, when Mrs. Nine wanted to merge Ding Ding's two souls into one, Xie Ning suddenly rushed out, it was as if she was hiding in the shadows and peeping, in her heart, she also understood that Ding Ding and Mrs. Nine were not easy to deal with, and she might not have thought that after cleaning up their messes, we wouldn't be able to resist much anymore. Therefore, she took advantage of this opening, her tongue directly towards Ding Ding's soul rolled over, so that all the people present were shocked, and even more so, they were caught off guard. Seeing that Ding Ding's souls were about to merge together, Mrs. Nine where willing to let Xie Ning mess up, hard rushed up and blocked that tongue for a bit, and as a result of being lifted by this tongue, Mrs. Nine directly fell off the roof. Even with the hanged ghost, it was too late to rescue her.
But thankfully, with that delay, Tintin's soul recovered. But watching his mom being sent to the top of the building and getting it down, spare anyone would have gone crazy. If it is not Xia Ruxuan with me dared to go tight, then even more do not know what will happen behind.
Finished the whole thing, the little ghost only seemed to confide in the same way, a long sigh of relief. I was silent and thought about it, although the two women were collected by Ding Ding, but under Lu Yao, I don't know if there will be other ghosts and monsters come to haunt, we can prevent a moment, but can't prevent a lifetime. Therefore, I considered for a while, and said to the little ghost, "I have something, I want to ask you for a favor.
He laughed softly and said what's there to please or not, we are now a family.
I also smiled lightly and said that's fine, you lend me the ghost car tomorrow, but don't be the one to tell anyone that I've left!
The little ghost first raised an eyebrow, then immediately understood what I meant, and said you want to go find the painted skin now!
I did not expect him to be so surprised, busy signaling him to lower his voice, I said, before is not know where she is, and the concern that I have injuries on my body, now it seems that there is a soul invocation bell, there is a ghost car, I can leave my soul to go out, and the ghost car can help me to guard my body, and if there is an accident he will be able to escape.
Although I say this is reasonable, but the little ghost is still not assured, said you go, may be directly facing the dead under the coffin, even if you are the state of changeless, but you are not really changeless, can not fight them.
I said I can't fight also have to fight, this is sooner or later have to face things, and after I go, help me find an excuse to hide those people outside the house, like my father they, may also want to go with me. But looking at Mrs. Nine that way, I really feel some who if something happens, I can't take it anymore. Lin Tian is as incompetent as I am, and is still taking care of his mother. Mrs. Nine just died, and Ding Ding still has a lot of things to do. My cousin's physique is a bit idiosyncratic, and those places are less subtle to go to. It's not easy for Tan Lan to break free from the kind of fearful days he used to have, and I don't want him to get involved in it. As for you, you have done enough ……
The little ghost still wanted to persuade me with a few words, but I vetoed it, I really felt that, at this point, there was no room for things to maneuver, and Mrs. Nine's death was like a fuse that blew up between me and Lu Yao. I couldn't possibly know that this trip would most likely be a dead end for the others, and this would still lead them to fight for their lives. I felt that whoever had done it had done more than enough.
I explained a few more things to the little ghost about the time and place to have the ghost car wait for me, and before I could listen to him talk me out of it, I kicked him out of the house, and he seemed to understand that no matter if he said yes or no, I'd always find a time to leave when no one would be watching me. So it wasn't as safe as having the ghost train around.
I didn't sleep well that night. Until very late, I could still hear Tintin's crying, and then I don't know when it subsided. But after I squinted slightly, my alarm went off, and I was out of bed in a flash, dressed, and ready to leave. I had almost nothing with me, as I hardly needed anything except the spirit bell. I just don't know why, but just as I was about to leave the house, I looked back around the room and inexplicably took Qin Ming's ghost mound with me.
I tried to suppress my voice as much as I could, and as I walked through the living room, I looked out the window, the heavy rain that night had stopped, and now it was only a little after five o'clock, and the sky was still light, even the water and the water on the ground hadn't dried up yet. As I left the house, I couldn't help but look back, wondering if I'd ever get a chance to come back, or when the next time I'd be back would be.
Going down from the elevator, I followed the curb all the way to the west, and after not long, I saw a pair of big eyes in the light night color, waiting quietly. I was slightly pleased in my heart, the little ghost promised me after all.
But when I walked to the front of the ghost car, only to find that the little ghost is also on it, he climbed out of the ghost car, the clothes on his body is still like afraid of the cold, wearing slightly thick. I thought he wanted to say goodbye to me, but he said, last time it was me who took you to that place, this time, or I will take you there.
I was slightly surprised and said, "Are you crazy? Didn't you understand what I said last night?
The little ghost face serious, said what do you care what he understands or not, if you want to go, I will send you, the ghost car after all, the size is this, in addition to carrying your body, there is no way to give you to take good care of you. It's different with me. If you do not agree, then I now sentence to go back to shout people, you see how far you can run.
I listen to his tone, really can not take him, only said you want to go with me, then who will help me drag everyone ah.
The little ghost said this you don't have to worry about, I came out when I left a note in the room, said you now want to go out to take a break, there is me, and will not do anything stupid.
My face sank, there is really nothing more to do, and finally instructed him a few words, said that first understand, anyway, you only help me to watch the body on the right, other things you do not care.
Only then did he give an evil smile, that smile was like when we first met, and said Don't worry, you look out, you are afraid of death.
As soon as his words fell, he began to climb to the ghost car, I looked at his back, in a trance, I felt a little funny, perhaps there was a time when we were all afraid of death, but now, after so many things, we have long changed.
