A Guest In A Ghost House - Chapter 263 Call Back the Ghos
I and Su Jun took a look of each other. In order to conceal the truth, Zheng Dayou even never cared about the safety of his child, which made me unable to understand. However, it also showed from the side that the story of the woman named Chang should be very terrible.
Then his wife began to get mad, but Zheng Dayou still just silently bore all this, without saying anything.
The fat woman even began to roll on the ground while screaming. It seemed that Zheng Dayou also couldn’t stand it anymore, and then he directly hugged the fat woman and dragged her back into the room. Since we saw her clothes and hair disorder, it naturally inappropriate for us to follow them in.
The couple didn’t stay in the room for a long time and walked out in about 10 minutes later. To my surprise, the fat woman had stopped became calm down and her face turned pale. She was wiping her tears.
“Just leave. I really don’t know anything.”
While he was saying, he also was driving us out of the door.
After I glanced at the fat woman’s phone on the table in the hall, I just walked out self-consciously.
It seemed that Su Jun was talking about something with Zheng Dayou. After that, he also walked out, but his face turned iron-green and the anger in his eyes seemed to blowout soon.
“Does that woman was convinced by him?” I looked at Su Jun, asking him.
Then Su Jun nodded his head and said, “This seems very complicated. The people of the village are very likely to have reached an agreement, such as that they would revenge on whoever has told out the truth or something, otherwise, Zheng Dayou’s wife will never agree with it so easily.”
I thought of the phone on the fat woman’s desk and nodded. It was obvious that the fat woman didn’t call her child again, but I was still wondering what kind of power on earth would make a mother keep a secret regardless of the safety of her own child.
“Maybe we can target someone else. I just don’t believe that everyone is so stubborn.”
After Su Jun finished saying, he walked toward the village. In my heart, I didn’t think it was a good idea for him to go back the the village again, because people in small mountain villages were always very stubborn.
For I didn’t have a good rest last night, I decided to make up my sleep in the room Su Jun arranged for me.
When I came out, I saw Su Jun smoking hard there. That expression on his face seemed to show that he even wanted to eat the cigarette.
I walked over, then stretched myself and asked him, “How’s it going? It don’t work, right?”
Su Jun just gave me a disgruntled look and leaned against the wall to close its eyes.
Hearing that, I just laughed strangely. Until I saw his face convulsions, I staggered out.
Old Mr. Zhang was studying a book with full spirit. Then I walked over and took a look, only to find it was “The Book of Changes”, which was so profound that I couldn’t understand it.
When old Mr. Chang saw me, he immediately stood up and said, “Master.”
I nodded. During this period of time, I seemed to have become addicted to being a master.
“Set up an altar of precepts and hold a ceremony at night.”
“What?” Old Mr. Chang said surprisingly, “Master, are you going to fight this the woman named Chang?”
“What are you thinking? I won’t do it. It’s just that the people in this village are unwilling to tell us the truth, so let’s ask the ghosts in a different way. By the way, prepare more incense, candle and false paper money.”
Old Mr. Chang nodded repeatedly. For these things, he always maintained the passion. A very strong old man.
After having made the decision and because it was very early, I began to hang out in the village.
The villagers were so frightened that no one went to work, so a lot of people came together, comforting each other and warming themselves.
Seeing me coming, they only showed a bitter smile, which was a completely different treatment, compared with that at first. What’s more, someone even showed an look of hatred to me. Just they wanted to hide this emotion very deliberately, so it was impossible for me that even I only wanted to pretend not to find out this point.
Maybe Su Jun asked them very ruthlessly. I observed them carefully and found that most people who showed the look of hated to me were male, all of who might be related to the woman named Chang.
When I got back to the open space of the village, I saw Su Jun calling me from a distance.
After I walked over, I knew that the man who had paid for finding the woman named Chang had already been found, but it was only his dwelling place that was found, not him. That guy was working out of here and would come wouldn’t go back until very late.
I nodded and suggested, “Actually, you could have someone bring that guy back. Maybe, just kill that guy and all is over.”
“I don’t do things like that. The duty of the police is to guard the people.” Su Jun just said very firmly but his eyes betrayed him. Judging from his eyes, I could find he actually wanted to do that, but it was the morality he had been holding that kept him from making this decision.
For this decision, I also would never help him. It was a good thing for one man to have a principle or a bottom line. Once crossed, it was likely to never be found again.
Maybe old Mr. Chang had already told Su Jun my decision, he directly asked me after this topic was over.
“Do you mean asking the ghost? Do it work?”
Then I just took a look of old Mr. Chang who was worried about saying too much, and smiled, “It’s always okay to try anyway. Popular feeling is very strange. When we’re all on the same line, maybe we’ll all stick to the agreement. However, once it’s not on the same line, it’s hard to say. After all, I’m dead. Why are you still alive?”
Finally, he also pointed to the distant corpse.
Su Jun frowned and seemed unwilling to admit what I said, but he also didn’t oppose me in the end.
The night fell and I considered the safety of the villagers. Therefore, before the best time I had mentioned, I had already begun to preparing call back the soul of ghost according to the method I learned in the ghost building.
On the small table was covered with yellow cloth printed with the pattern of the Eight Diagrams and in the middle was a huge YINYANG fish.
There was a little censer in the position of YIN fish. In the position of Yang fish, there was a bowl full of rice.
I was sitting by the side of the YANG fish and old Mr. Chang and the police officers were standing behind me. The YANG fish was pointing at the place where air of YIN was the heaviest, also the place where the bodies were placed.
After lighting three sticks of incense and respectfully inserting them into the incense stove, I picked up the yellow paper to set it on fire and used it to make circle above the bowl filled with rice.
“Heaven and earth are endless, and all the seas and soil are flat. Now I am calling back the soul of ghost and I ask to make the it shows up.”
As my voice fell, there was a cold wind on the ground. The police behind me couldn’t help talking about it, but were stopped by Su Jun.
I picked up the rice bowl and spread the rice evenly across the table. As soon as the table was full of rice, the paper money in my hand burst into flames violently.
I shook my hand and the paper money was spilled into the sky. However, it did not fall down, but floating in the position covered with rice, as if someone was holding it.
Then in front my eyes, a thin old man slowly emerged.
His wrinkles were wrinkled enough to kill the mosquito, there was little hair left on his head and his yellow teeth were also very sparse. I guessed that he might already look like a ghost when he was alive.
Although the men behind me couldn’t see the ghost, he could still see the mark of rice on the table, so all of them suddenly gave out a cry of surprise. I turned back unhappily and let everyone shut up.
“Boy, you even dare to call the soul.” The old man’s voice was gloomy and unkind.
I gave him a white look and said, “Don’t say anything useless. Let me ask you something. If you can tell very clearly, all the paper money over there will be yours.”
After that old man took a look of those paper money, he laughed, “Just ask me. I know everything but the wronged soul.”
Damn, I just wanted to ask you about that. You even said you didn’t knew it at first.
