A Guest In A Ghost House - Chapter 202 The Story
The door in the house was tightly closed and Fu Xiao, who was pregnant, lay alone in the house, giving out a faint and Inaudible exclamation of pain from time to time.
Old Mrs. Luo, the most famous doctor and midwife in the local area, was standing at the door, anxiously waiting for the decision of the father and son, Lu Dafu and Lu Haitao.
Relative to the silence of Lu’s family, the other residents in this yard was chattering. From time to time, someone came up with an idea, and before they had finished saying, others vetoed it and then they went on with the discussion.
Lu Haitao’s wife was pregnant and it was twins. This naturally was a great blessing, but one of the twins was a stillborn baby and this was a tragedy.
Old Mrs. Luo diagnosed that the stillbirth baby had just been formed. It was dead only in about six months and now it was a little rotten. Moreover, it also had already seriously threatened another healthy child and the pregnant mother.
Now she had to be forced to do a caesarean birth. However, according to the words of Old Mrs. Luo, mother and children, she could only keep one.
Lu Dafu coughed loudly, making the sound of discussion in the courtyard much quieter. Then he hurled his cigarette butts on the ground, and then said firmly, “Keep the child.” After saying, he walked to one side and took out the phone.
Lu Haitao just looked at his father in amazement and opened his mouth, but still bowed his head and stopped talking, trying to suppress his own cries.
Old Mrs. Luo nodded and entered the room.
After waiting anxiously for an hour, a baby’s cry finally came out. At this moment, Old Mrs. Luo walked out, with her hands covered with blood, and then looked apologetically at the men of Lu’s family.
Lu Haitao’s hand, which was holding the cigarette, was shaking constantly. After a few sniffles, he asked with a crying voice, “What about the child…child…the child’s mother?”
Old Mrs. Luo was stunned for a moment and quickly said, “No. No. No. Both of them are fine.”
Old Mrs. Luo’s words made everyone stunned. Did she just now firmly say that she could just save one of two? And what did Old Mrs. Luo’s apologetic expression mean now? Everyone thought it strange.
But Old Mrs. Luo explained, “I always think it is twins but it isn’t, and there’s only one child. Sorry, it’s my fault.”
But now Lu Haitao would never blame the Old Mrs. Luo and he was happy that even he was ready to hold her and kiss her.
Lu Haitao cried out and then walked to Lu Dafuto tell him this good news. However, Lu Dafu, who was standing on one side and holding the phone, just nodded his head and reluctantly gave a smile.
After finishing all this, Old Mrs. Luo didn’t leave, and she was left by Lu Dafu on the grounds that the health condition of the child was not well. However, the next day, the people in the yard found that Lu Dafu, who had been so strong, died so quietly.
The yard was full of gossip, but it was only a matter of speculation. The funeral of Lu Dafu was arranged by some of his good friends. What was very strange was that it seemed that he had already known that he was going to die, so he even informed his good friends ahead of time, one of who was Qing Fengzi.
Then he was soon buried in back mountain, but few people knew that the people who was buried there was not Lu Dafu, but the dead baby inside Fu Xiao’s abdomen at that time.
Indeed, Fu Xiao conceived a twin. Just one of the fetuses had died early and had rotted slightly in the mother’s abdomen. Lu Dafu gave Old Mrs. Luo the phone call to let her come and also gave her a lot of money as the hush money. In addition, he also asked Qing Fengzi that he was willing to use his death in exchange for the life of Lu Sheng, because spending too much time with his rotten twin brother, Lu Sheng could not also live.
Till now, this thing should have come to an end. However, it hadn’t ended. Lu Sheng had been acting differently from other normal children since he was a child and he even always thought that a brother was playing with him, which made Lu Haitao, who later knew some of the situation, felt much frightened.
Under the fear, Lu Haitao chose to seek help from Qing Fengzi, but that little ghost was very mysterious. As long as Qing Fengzi came, the little ghost would disappear. In the end, it was me who let Xiao Sheng possess the body to exorcise the little ghost. Of course, this was only the idea of Qing Fengzi and Lu Haitao.
This was also the best outcome for Qing Fengzi and Lu Haitao, and even for the deceased Lu Dafu. The story was supposed to be over but nine out of ten people are unhappy in life.
At that year, the dead fetus in the abdomen had a strong grievance and he even had occupied the body of his twin brother many years ago. In addition, he also even got the ghost cream. Finally, he only became Lu Sheng, but also did bad things to his living soul.
It was because the stillbirth baby took over Lu Sheng’s body for a long time that Xiao Sheng became the one who was banished and suppressed after his possessing.
At the end of the story, the woman told me that the stillbirth baby was not the soul of reincarnation at all, but an old ghost of years, who originally wanted to be born directly with the help of my mother, but he was dead in the abdomen.
As for who was the ghost, the woman just smiled and said with a sweet voice, “You know him.”
I felt very confused and then went down the back mountain. After I went back home, Lu Haitao, who was anxious to be crazy, beat me very seriously, but I didn’t have the strength to struggle. Fortunately, on the reminder of the neighbors, he found there was something wrong with my body and he didn’t beat me too hard, otherwise, even he was beating his own son in his eyes, I would never spare him.
After a long sleep and when I got up, I was still lying on the bed of Lu Sheng and I was still using his body. It seemed that illusion didn’t come to an end.
However, I could feel that the illusion was collapsing, because the surrounding walls had become blurred.
Now I finally understand why Qing Fengzi would kill himself, because the ghost was the real Lu Sheng and his body had been possessed by the old ghost for a long time.
Just the mysterious woman said that I knew this old ghost, but after I thought about it for a long time, I still had no idea. Most of the ghosts I knew were from the ghost buildings, and now in Sishui City, I didn’t seem to know any other ghosts here except those I saw last time at school.
Wait a minute. It was also not right. At least, Xiao Lingdang had introduced two new ghosts to me. Was it true that the old ghost was the smiling brother who was dressed in linen and filial piety and was smiling at any time?
Then I also thought it not right, because both Xiao Lingdang and the smiling brother had sacred Lu Sheng before and how could a ghost appear in different bodies at the same? Oh, no. I remembered that she told that Lu Sheng was seriously scared, but Lu Sheng was the old ghost and how could he be scared just by some child who was making pranks.
