Take your sister to catch a ghost

Chapter 31

The route the police were looking for was to visit. The place where I took the old man was a place full of shadows. We searched all the nearby cemeteries and woods.

When I found out that it was past five o'clock in the afternoon, the old man could no longer walk. I looked at him and couldn't bear to say, "Why don't you just go home and wait... I'll help you find it."

The old man shook his head, and a few turbid tears came out of the corners of his eyes.

I also shook my head. He is under a lot of pressure now, not only from his granddaughter, but also from He Tingting's parents. I am afraid that after this time, he will not live long... The old man is most afraid of heart palpitations.

After that, I searched for a few more places, and I sent the old man back home, and I also went home, saying that I would come back at [-]:[-] in the evening, and I would use other methods to find it at that time.

After returning home and waiting for a while, I ran into the garden, the snake bone woman was still there, and the hair eater had disappeared.

The snake bone woman told me: "He goes out at this time every day... I think he probably has a crush on your sister... If you want to die, you can hand her over to the hair-eating ghost. I trust him."

I rolled her eyes and didn't say anything. Since the hair-eating ghost is gone, I don't have to go. I believe that the hair-eating ghost won't let others hurt Xiaoxi.

Speaking of which, I haven't let Xiaoxi see the two of them so far, I should let them meet Xiaoxi sometime, otherwise Xiaoxi will be scared to death when she sees them after I die.

I took a look here, and then found a lot of hair to put in the place of the hair eater.

After chatting with the snake bone woman for a while, I returned to the house.

Go back to the room and put out the incense on the incense burner, and pick up the Qiankun magic sword.

Afterwards, I packed all the things I had prepared before into a small bag, and just after the preparations, Xiaoxi came back, looked at my outfit, and asked me, "Brother, are you going out?"

I nodded and said, "Stay inside the house tonight, don't answer no matter who asks you outside, don't answer no matter who knocks on the door, remember?"

"Brother won't you open the door even if you tell me?"

"I have the key. I won't call you today...the people who call you are all fake."

Xiao Xi nodded.

Dealing with ghosts is the most fearful of revenge from ghosts. They are inhuman. If they succeed, it’s okay, but if they fail, they will bite like mad dogs. Not only themselves, but even their family members may suffer.

I have prepared several layers of precautions in this room. Ghosts who don't know the doorway dare not come in. The hair-eating ghost and the snake bone woman dared to come in only after I told them.

Today I asked Xiaoxi to go to bed early, and the influence of any sound will be weakened when she falls asleep.

After watching Xiaoxi fall asleep, I pasted several talismans on her door before leaving.

Looking at his attire, he really looks like a knight-errant in a TV series.

This time I didn't take a car, but walked. I couldn't feel anything in a car, but I could still feel if something was entangled with me while walking.

It was exactly eleven o'clock when we arrived downstairs at the old man's house.

Going upstairs, the door is open, and there are a few policemen sitting in the old man's house, it seems that they are here to understand the situation, or to 'report' the progress.

When I went in, all their eyes were fixed on me.

Before the old man could introduce me, I introduced myself: "My name is Zhang Yuan... half a Taoist priest!"

After the policemen heard this, they said slowly, "Promoting a cult is against the law."

I knew he was talking to me, so I smiled and said, "If Taoism was a cult, the country wouldn't have established a Taoist association!"

I can't get used to these policemen for a long time. I saw them once during the day. They chatted at the roadside booth. According to their work progress, it would not be surprising to find them next year.

They froze for a moment, and then said to the old man, "It's not good to be superstitious!"

"You are members of the league, and you believe in atheism... But others believe in Sanqing and are looking for spiritual sustenance... You don't care, the country doesn't say anything, what kind of savior are you pretending to be here!" I can't be polite, the country is a good country, and the party is a good party... It was just ruined by these moths. The old man told me that he had already bought several cigarettes for these policemen, and he was afraid that they would not help them well.

The few policemen listened, shut their mouths, and left after sitting here for a while.

After he left, I removed the chair they were sitting on just now, squatted on the ground and fiddled with the things in my bag.

"Do you have white cloth at home?"

The old man nodded and said yes.

I let him take a ninety by ninety piece of cloth.

After he brought it, I took my cinnabar and brush from the bag, and then spread the cloth on the ground to draw.

The white cloth was covered with some strange lines in a short while.

After the painting was finished, I took three white ropes and tied them to the dry position, shock position and threshold position of the white cloth.

After the rope is tied, an aluminum bowl-shaped iron sheet is tied to the end of the rope, and three copper coins are also tied to it by the way.

A Kongming lantern is made, and it is also called a soul-invoking lamp, which can be used to recruit those wandering souls outside.

"Bring me one of the things that the little girl used before!"

The old man ran into the house and took a piece of clothing and handed it to me.

I took the clothes, and then ran into the house to have a look. The scarecrow was still standing, but trembling slightly. After I looked, I got up and closed the window, and pasted a few pictures of "Town House" on the window. symbol'.

After finishing the painting, he took the old man out the door.

I followed the old man to a nearby hill and looked at my watch. It was 45:[-], and when the Kongming lantern was released at [-]:[-], the Kongming lantern could take us to find where the little girl was.

While there was still time, I took out three incense sticks and stuck them on the ground and lit them.

I don't know why, every time I smell the fragrance, I can calm down.

Looking at the time, when it was 45:[-], I tore off a piece of the little girl's clothes and put it into the Kongming lantern. After lighting it, the Kongming lantern slowly expanded and finally floated slowly.

When the Kongming Lantern floated up, I took out the Qiankun Magic Sword.

Since Kongming Lantern is called Soul-calling Lantern, it can not only help us find specific souls, but also attract the attention of other lonely ghosts, so I don’t know how many ghosts will chase Kongming Lantern along the way.

"Follow the lamp...not too far from me!" I said to the old man.

The old man nodded.

As I imagined, the Kongming Lantern did not float towards the main city, because there were many people there, and ordinary ghosts would not go there.

The place where the Kongming lantern floated was getting more and more remote. After floating for about 10 minutes, the light slowly fell down. I relit a piece of broken clothes and put it in, and sprinkled some water on the link of the rope.

It's nothing special, it's just that putting too much at once will burn the rope.

After that, the Kongming Lantern slowly floated up again.

The old man asked me: "Can I really find my granddaughter?"

"Try it and you'll know! It should work!"

As I spoke, I kept looking around.

After walking intermittently for nearly an hour, I finally walked into a place that I thought was extremely dark.

This is a cemetery in the countryside, full of burials. With the help of the moonlight, I took a look. There are about [-] tombs. Next to these tombs is a small village. These tombs should have been accumulated in that village.

"Follow me!" I said again.

There are very few ghosts in the city, because most of the people in the city are cremated, and the souls of the people are also burned to death during the cremation, and they are not given a chance to become ghosts.

But burial is different. In rural areas, a funeral is usually held after death, and an auspicious day must be selected for burial. If someone who reads Feng Shui says that there are no good days recently, the dead will have to wait in the coffin. I have seen a dead person The person who was buried in the coffin for half a month, the whole place was filled with the smell of corpses, but his family had to kneel in front of the coffin and burn the paper.

If the dead are not buried for such a long time, the resentment will deepen. In addition, if they are buried directly in the ground without being burned by fire, the chance of turning into a ghost will be much higher when they come into contact with the earth's atmosphere.

When the Kongming Lantern swayed as it passed above the group of tombs, I already knew that something was staring at the Kongming Lantern.

"Take this!" I took out a talisman and handed it to the old man.

The old man took the talisman and held it in his palm.

"No matter what you see for a while, don't be afraid...and don't scream, you know?"

The old man nodded.

After the old man nodded, we continued to move forward. After walking for a few seconds, the old man suddenly shivered. I quickly reached out and pressed his shoulder, and gave him a look.

He glanced at me, then turned his gaze straight ahead.

After walking for a while, the old man said to me: "It seems that someone is calling me!"

"Don't look back, they're right behind you!"

When walking alone in the deep mountains and old forests at night, if you feel that someone is calling you, you must not turn your head, as soon as you turn your head, you will give them an opportunity.

After a while, a shadow slowly appeared on the ground, and this shadow gradually extended, and finally surpassed the shadows of me and the old man.

After seeing the shadow, I stopped, took off the shoe on my left foot, held it in my hand, and started hopping on one foot.

The old man was about to say something, and I gave him a shh gesture.

After jumping seven, seven, and 49 steps, I threw the shoe towards the sky, and when it fell, the shoe just hit the head of the shadow.

The shadow suddenly shrank back, and finally only the shadows of me and the old man remained on the ground.

After the shadow disappeared, I turned around abruptly and shouted 'Get out of here'. After shouting, I stepped forward to pick up the shoes and put them on, speeding up.

"What was that just now?" the old man asked me tremblingly.

"Shadow ghosts... just like to scare people!"

He nodded, and we moved on.

Ahead is a slope covered with trees.

After passing the slope, I saw a ravine in front of me. The air here was heavier than that just now. I thought it would be here, but to my surprise, Kongming Lantern continued to move forward.

During this period, the cloth strips were changed three times.

At the fourth time, the Kongming Lantern finally stopped and floated in the sky without moving.

I looked at the Kongming lantern above, went to the bottom of the Kongming lantern, took out a few copper coins from my pocket and buried them on the ground.

This place is also a cemetery. Although there are not as many graves here as there were just now, the prosperity of the tombs is obviously much better than before.

The tomb there just now didn't even have a tombstone. Apart from the tombstones, the worst tombs here are also guarded by stone lions.

There are seven tombs in total, arranged in three rows.

Two seats in the first row, two seats in the second row, and three seats in the third row.
