Chapter 2, Ghosts and Deities

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

I plan to go see the river where Zhao Yiyan drowned again

"Let go! We're doomed!" one of the boys playing with the Ouija board shouted, turning to me and saying, "Do you know that you can't let go when inviting the spirit? You scared us into letting go, and if anything happens to us in the future, how will you take responsibility?"

Yan Hao asked: "Who are you talking to?"

I see flickering candlelight not far away, and a few people squatting there. They seem to be children from the village, but they are around sixteen or seventeen years old. Their school bags are placed aside, and they are gathered in a circle, but I don't know what they are doing.

Feng Li said: "He didn't want to play the game of Ouija board at first, but we forced him to come." Speaking of this, she cried again, "It's all our fault that he died!"

San Niang smiled charmingly and said, "You are truly humorous." Then she turned and entered the house

Water ghost! Water ghost! Ahhh! Water ghost!

I wanted to ask further, but I was interrupted by Yan Hao: "I don't believe that feelings can be accurate. Besides this, do you have any other evidence to prove that the ghost from last night was not an evil spirit?"

Have you all watched "Liao Zhai" before? Currently, I haven't encountered many ghosts, and it's hard to say. I can only talk nonsense with a straight face. "Good ghosts, they can learn from Lei Feng to do good deeds, help the ghost grandma cross the road, and return lost money to its rightful owner. These kinds of ghosts are definitely worth praising, especially outstanding figures like Nie Xiaoqian and Gong Sunjiu, heroic women who sacrifice themselves for justice, solving the love and marriage problems of older single men, and making outstanding contributions to easing social conflicts!"

This sentence left me momentarily speechless

"What are you thanking for?" San Niang smiled charmingly at the two boys and said, "The sun is so strong outside, what if it gets ruined?" She licked her lips and whispered, "If it gets burnt, it won't taste good."

"It's nothing, it's nothing." If someone were to find out that I have a vixen in my house, my reputation for chastity that I have maintained for half my life would be ruined! I coughed and said, "The death of your classmate has nothing to do with you letting go yesterday!"

The meaning of Xiaomage is that the difference between ordinary ghosts and evil ghosts is that evil ghosts have the obsession of harming people. San Niang continued, "And if the obsession is too deep, it will affect people. Simply put, the yin energy of ordinary ghosts only makes people feel cold, but when malicious spirits approach, people's feelings are not just as simple as being cold." She smiled slightly, "What did you feel last night?" Simply put, the yin energy of ordinary ghosts only makes people feel cold, but when malicious spirits approach, people's feelings are not just as simple as being cold." She smiled slightly, "What did you feel last night?"

The hint of spring in my heart has quickly cooled down

I was taken aback, is someone dead

Just as I was letting my guard down, I suddenly heard someone whisper ominously: "You will die..."

The Pixiu spends more than half of the day sleeping, occasionally waking up to say a word, and when it does, the accuracy is certainly one hundred percent

Following the most recent route those students had previously taken me, halfway through, I turned left off the road.

At this moment, the sky has darkened, and a parent is shouting outside: "Yan Hao, come home for dinner"

This place was originally a graveyard

I said: "You do not understand, highly skilled individuals tend to be a bit neurotic"

You will never hear what they say down there in your lifetime

Who would have thought that by midnight, my body began to feel cold, as if a wave of chill had come from nowhere, growing heavier and heavier, ultimately waking me up from the cold

Zhang Jiayan shot me a fierce glance and said, "You are insane!" before walking away quickly

I felt a jolt in my body and slowly turned my head, only to see a person standing under the blazing midday sun

I turned my head to take a look, and immediately developed a dislike for this ghost; he was actually wearing a Rolex!

Indeed, as soon as I spoke those words, everyone fell silent. The two men no longer even glanced at San Niang, turning in unison to look at me.

I can no longer laugh: "Hahaha, this is not funny at all!" Then I said to them: "People like you are the good youth, Xiaopang will definitely like you."

There is a woman's head standing in the refrigerator

"It is just in the village, you just need to turn around."

I stared at the woman's bare head, with her skull exposed, almost on the verge of tears. What kind of twisted aesthetic would lead one to find her beautiful

Then he turned his head and shouted at those playing with the Ouija board: "What are you doing!"

"We all grew up eating human flesh, so naturally we have strength," she smiled at me and said, "Do you know why I don't live anywhere else and insist on coming to this sparsely populated countryside? It's precisely because this is a place of extreme yin, which is very beneficial for cultivation, especially your house, with its yin winds and waters, and..." She glanced at me, pursed her lips, "Forget it, if I say it, I won't scare you. It's rare to see someone as delicious as you; it would be unfortunate if you were frightened away."

I made this reasoning very seriously, but I did not discuss it with the three of them. If I were to tell those children who do not believe in handling household registration, they would surely mock me, undermining the trust I have worked hard to establish. The atmosphere would undoubtedly become unserious immediately.

San Niang shrugged her shoulders and said with a mysterious smile, "If you haven't discovered it, then forget it."

As we began to speak, a few people felt a bit more at ease, but upon passing by Zhao Yijia's mourning hall, they fell silent again

I have heard that ancient people used water as a substitute for mirrors, and it actually looks quite good. As I thought this, I couldn't help but take another glance at the reflection of San Niang.

I thought to myself, if Hu Yating hears this, she would definitely cry: "Does she really look that plain?"

This silence is but a moment; ten seconds later, everyone revealed expressions of disdain, collectively exhaling through their noses in a huff.

Just because of this, I was subjected to the merciless ridicule of Qiangzi and the others. Later, when they came over to drink in winter, they complained that the beer was too cold, so they all threw it in my refrigerator to warm it up

Zhao Yi's death is suspicious, but it may not necessarily be related to Hu Ya Ting's breakup yesterday.

Comrade. A ghost approached from the side, asking, "Can you see us?"

After walking for more than five minutes, I saw a dim light ahead, with small round dots floating in the air. At first, I thought they were fireflies, but as I got closer, I realized that the lights were fist-sized and had a color between green and yellow.

San Niang was clearly startled by the old lady as well: "Who is this?"

The third sister stomped her foot and said, "She's attacking me, you should stop her. Why are you hugging me?"

Ah Huang!" Feng Li went up to appease it and touched its fur as if comforting it, but the dog jumped away and started barking wildly around us.

I peered around, looking in all directions.

"Then you definitely don't know..." he said halfway, then stopped, "Forget it, you will know in a couple of days anyway"

Feng Li asked, "What is wrong with you? Why don't you say we can stay at your place? You have a small second floor there!"

That ghost pouted in grievance and moved.

She actually followed me home!

After hearing her words, I bent down and looked at the surface of the river.

What should we do? I said.

"I'm really sorry!" the man said to us, "My mother is getting old and her mind isn't working very well."

In the morning, it was raining outside with the sound of pitter-patter. I stretched my body and felt fine. The blanket was warm and cozy.

I said: "Death is predetermined, it has nothing to do with you."

It was probably because I didn't turn back when I heard a strange voice shouting, "Little Ma Brother?"

As a social elite who has traveled extensively and seen the world, I also feel uneasy about being scrutinized.

On TV or in books, there are often people who hold important information. Before they die, they will be held by their companions and chat for half an hour about their daily lives, saying "I'm sorry, I'm dying, but I'm sorry for my country! Sorry for the people! Sorry for the party! Sorry for my second uncle's seventh niece!" I remember when I was young, you loved to talk and I loved to laugh. Our yellow dog was named Erhua. Then they would spit out a mouthful of blood and say with difficulty, "That's all trivial matters. What I really want to tell you is that this time, I bravely went forward regardless of difficulties and obtained the information that... I remember when I was young, you loved to talk and I loved to laugh. Our yellow dog was named Erhua. Then they would spit out a mouthful of blood and say with difficulty, "That's all trivial matters. What I really want to tell you is that this time, I bravely went forward regardless of difficulties and obtained the information that... cough cough... their secret is... yes... it is..."

These few children obviously have something else hidden from me.

This is a convention. When students encounter ghosts, this profession becomes very dangerous.

Feeling puzzled, I heard someone behind me exclaim in surprise, "Oh!" Then, San Niang's voice rang out: "Xiao Ma Ge, you are still alive?"

Those classmates shook their heads in unison.

This is indeed advanced; it is the automatic simultaneous translation that humanity has longed for.

Upon seeing her close the door, I quickly rushed to the door of my own room and opened it to go in. As I was rushing in, I felt a chill behind me. I turned my head and saw that the door to the storage room was half open. The child was standing behind the door, with his head down, expressionless, eyes rolled up, and staring at me ominously.

Zhang Jiayan continued to stare at me with a gaze akin to that of an enemy

Don't be polite, please don't be polite with me. "The ghost said," You will need it sooner or later. "

The faces of those few people were ashen, as if they had suffered a great shock. Upon seeing me open the door, they immediately shouted, "Did you not say there was nothing wrong?"

Feng Li said, "I will stay with Yan Yan for the next few days"

I said: "I heard that cemetery prices have increased again recently, and wandering spirits are coming out to protest against the real estate company's monopoly."

My grandmother used to tell me ghost stories. Like the story of the red high heels and the ancient tomb skull. If my grandmother had nurtured me since I was young, maybe I could have quickly integrated into this field. But my grandmother started a bit late, and when she told me, I was going through a rebellious phase. Every day, listening to ghost stories, I became an atheist with a rebellious heart.

I can't stand seeing women cry. After comforting her for a few words, I left.

Oh no, Xiaoma, your zipper is open.

I saw them looking skeptical and sighed, saying, "Ah, you're all just kids, you don't know how difficult it is to register for a household now!"

I said, "You all came, why not go in to see him for the last time?"

No problem. With a wave of my hand, "Serve the people."

I said, "You kids are too superstitious." I said, "Don't blame everything on ghosts. This might just be an accident. Don't keep talking about ghosts and monsters all day long. Keep a positive attitude, okay?"

She seems to be doing it for my own good, but why does it make me feel so uncomfortable? "Does this have anything to do with appearance?!"

With his movement, the plate also began to move.

A few days without opening the refrigerator, it has become moldy.

Hehe...

San Niang asked: "What is the name of the girl you brought back yesterday?"

Yan Hao looked at me and said, "The phone number she left is invalid."

This old lady has quite a strong grip, my back is burning with pain.

Who else could it be if not San Niang?

I keep my eyes straight ahead and walk forward.

San Niang walked to the door in small high heels, glanced over, tears welled up in her eyes as she ran to me, and earnestly said, "Xiao Ma Ge, I misunderstood you. You've been so good to me!"

Never seen such bad luck! I quickly pushed the paper money back: "Don't play these tricks!"

In Feng Li's eyes, there were still tears. Seeing its appearance, she laughed and scolded, "You still have a conscience!" Then she went to get a rope and tied up Ah Huang.

While happily playing, San Niang asked another question.

Kick his ass, even if he's dead, drag him out and whip his corpse!

I found it easy to distinguish between the good and evil of ghosts. Some of them make you feel uneasy as soon as they approach you, while others don't have much of an impact. Although this ghost that is talking to me is chubby, with a big belly like a general, and even laughs without eyes, it seems quite amiable and without any malicious intent.

At this moment, even if I am optimistic, I can't say "you guys are fine" anymore.

San Niang asked: "What are you looking for?"

The person next to her was also stunned by her.

This probability is clearly not as simple as a coincidence.

I stared at them: "What?"

I used to firmly believe that generals and thin people are not evil spirits, but now I am wavering.

"You..." I hurriedly asked San Niang. "Did you see it just now?"

What our ancestors said is indeed reasonable, when men and women work together, the work is not tiring.

San Niang broke free from my embrace, and seeing that the old lady was about to strike again, she grabbed the old lady's wrist with one hand and scolded, "You lunatic!"

Feng Li pressed her lips together and said, "It's nothing."

In such a romantic setting, if I still don't know how to seize the opportunity to adjust the atmosphere, then I would be quite clueless. I said, "Listen, how lively the toad's croaking is!"

Lu Lin said: "There is nothing going on."

What a beautiful girl, but unfortunately she was born into the wrong circumstances. If she were human, we could engage in business together and become cultured individuals. I would spread glue on the wall for her to post advertisements, and as a couple working together, how wonderful that would be

San Niang glanced at me with a meaningful smile and then went into the house.

I was taken aback and turned to look. The two men and two women had all extended a finger to press on the plate, but at that moment, one little girl withdrew her hand, clasping it in front of her chest, looking at me in terror

After Pixiu finished that sentence, it refused to speak again no matter what.

I breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "What brings you here?"

Feng Li said, "I feel distressed."

Zhao Yi has died. Yan Hao asked, How do you explain this

I said: "What does this have to do with me? I am not the one who drowned him."

"Do not call me Brother Ma, it is too polite, I cannot bear it." I shook my calf, my body pressed against the wall, inching my way towards my room, "Just call me Little Brother Ma."

Today's high school students are truly remarkable and precocious

However, I stopped after only a few steps

These children are quite troublesome; on one hand, they are clamoring for me to take responsibility, while on the other hand, they cannot come up with a solution.

I do not blame them; I do not understand it myself

He was an old Taoist, dressed in a blue robe, with his hair styled in a round bun. The whisk draped over his left arm fluttered in the wind, and his smooth black beard hung down to his chest, forming a perfect inverted triangle, truly embodying the ethereal demeanor of a celestial being.

I am secretly wondering if it can smell the scent of a vixen on me, when the Pixiu suddenly interjects: "You only know how to make a fuss, how can you protect your master!"

The arrangement of the mourning hall strictly follows the customs of the countryside, with white cloth drapes hanging on both sides. On the spirit table is a photograph of Zhao Yi, and in front of the photograph is a wooden urn. On the octagonal table are an incense burner, white candles, and a plate of fruit

I shook my head and sincerely said, "You resemble a pyramid scheme."

Then he shrugged and left

At first, I did not understand what she intended to do; it was only when I saw her enter the water that I was taken aback and ran over to pull her back.

Since this land is referred to as the place of extreme darkness, there must be a reason for it. San Niang glanced at me and said with a smile, "You should focus on the matters at hand first."

At least we have a house now, right

Zhao Yi's mother has been crying excessively these past two days, leaving her completely numb. When she sees people come to pay their respects, she cannot utter a word and simply sheds tears.

I felt quite uncomfortable in my heart. When I looked up, I saw Zhang Jiayan, Feng Li, and Yan Hao standing outside the door, the boy with red-rimmed eyes and the girl wiping her tears

I tell you, do not talk to me about money. Once the topic of money comes up, I will enter my atheist mode.

I chuckled modestly and said, "Talent, talent."

As I reached out, I failed to catch her; San Niang darted out like a wild rabbit that had broken free, running swiftly to the door and waving to those high school students, saying: "Come in and have a seat, come in and have a seat"

This sleep was not restful; I still felt a chilling wind blowing intermittently. By midnight, I even felt as if my hands and feet were immersed in ice water

San Niang walked up to me and smiled, saying: "Little Brother Ma, have you finally decided to look back?"

"Oh dear," San Niang elongated her voice, smiling sweetly, "Isn't it just bringing back a late-night snack? Why are you so shy to admit it!" Then, with her delicate finger, she poked my forehead and said, "But I do like your shy personality."

It does not seem like something a normal person could accomplish

I said: "Since it's late at night, there might be ghosts nearby who saw what happened yesterday. I'll find a ghost to ask."

I want to figure out the truth, but it's outrageous that this group of middle school students got involved.

I was just thinking when I suddenly heard someone banging on my door.

I will never forget it, this is the one from the Wang family.

I took a look and realized that if this vixen gets angry, how can an old lady without any strength survive? I quickly reached out and hugged San Niang, shouting, "San Niang, don't be impulsive, don't be impulsive."

Perhaps he wants to take a walk. I can hardly believe this myself, but those two little ghosts, one chubby and the other thin, certainly do not resemble evil spirits. Perhaps there is something else going on.

Zhang Jiayan walked past me and gave me a fierce glare.

"Your school surely wouldn't be without the phone numbers of its students' families, right?!" I said, "Just call and ask!"

Otherwise, let me tell you something that will make you happy!

Ah! Those few people were so engrossed in playing, I didn't expect that I would start shouting and screaming here. Even a few people squatting on the outer circle were so scared that they sat down on the ground.

After I shouted like that, it really had an effect. The children started to slowly tidy up their things.

Just at this moment, the feeling of being stared at just now reappeared. I turned my head and saw a man's head standing next to the shoe cabinet. His hair was slick and shiny, and blood was still oozing from his two nostrils.

I can tell at a glance that those children are alive because there is a semi-transparent "dirty stuff" floating around them, creating a contrast. Those dirty things still maintain the state they were in when they died, with missing arms and broken legs, standing bloodily behind them. Not only that, but there are also many more coming from afar as if they were attracted, continuously floating towards them.

I was startled: "Dead?"

So I don't think it's a big deal. The little girl has been low-key all along, and now that she's almost graduating from high school, she wants to build good relationships with her classmates and participate in collective activities, which is understandable.

Although the sound was not loud, it was clear and distinct to the listener.

So many creatures gathering together is no longer just a problem of severely reduced per capita residential area.

It's strange to say, San Niang said that this place used to be a graveyard, but apart from those scattered ghost fires, I can't see a single formed ghost.

It was only her who was kinder to me, while the rest of the children looked at me with hostility.

Fortunately, there were no injuries, but I have a fractured leg," Feng Li said, "I am currently hospitalized

I don't know if it's a common reaction for certain creatures to respond to the word "ghost". Just as I said that, a hanging ghost appeared at the top of the stairs, and the refrigerator door opened slightly. A woman's head emerged from inside, staring at me with a sinister expression.

What did she feel, or was she just casually saying?

Another firm statement: "My father said the nerves of the people living in this house are a bit abnormal."

The general finally left with the skinny boy, and the ghost who was summoned from the side also went back to where it came from.

Then why do people die

Then, with a "bang" sound, the refrigerator door closed by itself.

Ouija board, Ouija board. The four people said in unison, "Tell me, what will the weather be like tomorrow."

It is said that animals can communicate with spirits. Dogs, in particular, are creatures with strong positive energy that can ward off evil. After giving it some thought, I realized that I spend all day in a haunted house, so the dog's positive energy might be stronger than mine. Therefore, I agreed and asked, "Where is your home?"

I said, "I cannot see."

When I was young, I heard my grandmother say that there is a legend in the countryside, which states that there are three lights on a person's body. If you are walking alone in the countryside and someone calls your name, it is a ghost in disguise, and you must not look back. If you do look back, one of the lights on your body will go out, and if all three lights go out, it will be the end for you. Since my grandfather's second uncle's elder's great-grandson is a renowned Taoist priest, my grandmother's words must be true

After they left, I had a bowl of egg noodles, and when it got dark, I took a flashlight and went out.

Everyone was looking at my hands, and I remained unfazed as I rubbed my fingers together and gave a thumbs up: "The fact that I can stay in the haunted house speaks for itself"

"This time, the idea of summoning the spirit of the plate was proposed by Zhang Jiayan," Yan Hao said hesitantly. "Originally, Zhao Yi was not supposed to be here, but he has had a crush on Zhang Jiayan for a long time, so he came along. Moreover..." He hesitated for a moment before continuing, "Zhang Jiayan really enjoys summoning the spirit of the pen and the plate. Zhao Yi initially wanted to please her, but unexpectedly, it turned out like this. I think Zhang Jiayan feels quite guilty about it now."

Even if I lack common sense, I can still see that they are engaging in a Ouija board séance.

I was stunned, he was not wrong in what he said

This village is not large, and every household knows each other. By the time I arrived, the Zhao family had already gathered a crowd of villagers.

I was facing a crowd, speaking while reaching into my half bag of noodles. To my surprise, as I reached in, I touched something that felt like a handful of grass.

As Feng Li just opened the door, a mixed-breed dog with a consistently yellowish-brown coat pounced over, standing beside Feng Li and barking at us with its mouth bared

The old lady seemed to have seen something terrifying, her eyes widened suddenly, and she screamed, "Ghost, a ghost!" Then she struggled to break free from San Niang's grasp, kicking and hitting. As soon as San Niang let go, the old lady immediately ran to the side of the grass, hugged a branch, and curled up in a ball, crying and trembling.

A sudden shock ran through my heart as I wondered, could this be the legendary will-o'-the-wisp? As I approached to take a closer look, I saw that the lines within the flames were peculiar. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a distorted human face, continuously twisting with the flickering of the fire, its expression one of immense suffering, as if it had endured great torment

The door slowly closed

Feng Li's lips had not yet curled up, and they soon drooped down again

Hu Yating kept covering her mouth, her pretty face flushed from holding back. When she noticed me looking at her, she shyly smiled and said, "I am most afraid of these things."

Under the starry sky, I walked on the lush grass with a woman who was impeccable in both appearance and figure. In the quiet night, the occasional sounds of insects chirping, frogs croaking, and wolves howling could be heard, while the river flowed in the distance and will-o'-the-wisps danced around us

"Being too normal is not normal," Yan Hao said. "As long as one is an emotional being, there will inevitably be preferences and biases. Under the influence of emotional hues, a person will have admirers, but there will certainly be those who dislike them as well. In any case, they will at least leave an impression. However, Hu Yating is quite peculiar."

I got goosebumps all over my body.

As noon approached, I prepared to go to the kitchen to cook some noodles. The moment I stepped out of my room, I felt a gaze fixed upon me.

I find her voice familiar, resembling that of San Niang, yet I do not dare to turn around

Therefore, they cannot be involved

Indeed, it turns out that the deceased were all placed in that old house. Now that new residents have moved in, they certainly would not allow that anymore

I want a return, but you also need to provide me with something reliable

I let out a sigh and said, "Perhaps that is also..." Before the word 'unexpected' could leave my lips, I suddenly had a thought and asked, "What about Hu Yating?"

In the end, although I believed that I could sacrifice myself to live with them, Zhang Jiayan and Feng Li did not agree

The students were filled with confusion, yet remained silent, so I continued: "There is another type of ghost, which is the evil ghost. The hallmark of an evil ghost is committing murder and engaging in wicked deeds, represented by characters like Sadako from Japan's 'The Ring' and 'Ju-on'. They are particularly malevolent, committing indiscriminate murder, killing anyone they catch. Especially in 'Ju-on', that family engages in organized and premeditated murder, luring people in with children, while the mother frightens them. If the person lured has strong psychological resilience and is not scared to death, the father goes out to strangle them. In short, they are determined to make you die!" I paused for a moment and asked, "So, do you understand?" Especially in 'Ju-on', that family engages in organized and premeditated murder, luring people in with children, while the mother frightens them. If the person lured has strong psychological resilience and is not scared to death, the father goes out to strangle them. In short, they are determined to make you die!" I paused for a moment and asked, "So, do you understand?"

Summoning ghosts? The moment I heard that, I became anxious. With the house in this state, how can we still summon!

Zhao Yi is a member of the school's martial arts team, and ordinary people cannot defeat him. There are no external injuries on his body. Lu Lin said, "Moreover, his expression after death was one of extreme terror..." He paused and added, "It was as if he had encountered something horrifying."

San Niang was originally squinting her eyes, staring at someone, but upon hearing my words, she turned her face towards me and smiled sweetly.

As soon as she said this, several students were taken aback, looking at each other in confusion

As a member of a disadvantaged group, being more attractive than most of them, living alongside these things is bound to result in suffering and abuse

The girl named Zhang Jiayan suddenly turned her head, staring at the boy with a gaze that was chilling.

Yesterday, I must have been trapped in a dream, I was thinking this when I suddenly heard the Pixiu say: "Those high school students from yesterday were not quite right"

San Niang seemed not to have heard my words, staring at the old lady. She took a few steps forward and cautiously asked: "Cui Ping?"

I said: "Hmm"

I have been exhausted these past few days, so I slept very soundly this time.

Those few individuals fell silent

"There are ghosts... there are ghosts..." the old lady repeated in a murmuring tone, as if in a dream.

At such a young age, engaging in feudal superstition! I put my hands on my hips and scolded, "How are your parents educating you? Which school do you attend? I will report this to your teacher."

Just as it was about to erupt, San Niang continued, "Looking at the ominous energy from last night, I thought you wouldn't be able to withstand it. It seems that the Pixiu is indeed somewhat useful to you, able to protect you well."

Then, with a tilt of the head, it died

Indeed, it is the voice of San Niang, which can be so sweet that it penetrates the heart. It is said that this ghostly voice is particularly skilled at mimicking the voices of your acquaintances

"Take a walk." San Niang glanced at me, licked her lips, and said, "Let's have a late-night snack while we're at it."

Can you guarantee that? Her lips curled into a strange arc as she ominously threw out a remark

Ah Huang no longer barked, as gentle as a rabbit

The woman who followed me home yesterday is indeed her, as San Niang said

I broke out in a cold sweat, closed my eyes, shook my head, and looked again; before me was still that shimmering, clear little river.

For the first time in my life, someone looked at me with such eyes, but I am not happy at all because he is male.

At this time, the sky is completely dark, and it seems that it should be midnight

I am a Taoist. I looked at her and said seriously, "I have been a Taoist for more than a week!"

We followed Feng Li to a household, and as soon as we reached the door, we heard the dog inside barking furiously, the sound was extremely fierce

His words may seem inconsequential at first, but upon closer reflection, they are truly alarming

I shivered and turned to look. It was another curly-haired girl who had just played the Ouija board, standing still while others were packing up, merely lowering her head and casting a resentful glance over.

In the distance, there were waves of things drifting this way. I ran over to take a look, and in the center, four people formed a circle. On the ground, there was a piece of paper, and on the paper, there was a plate.

This obsession and perseverance regarding death is simply chilling

After she finished speaking, she smiled sweetly at me and turned her body to leave

I sent those few students home, and while walking back, I thought about what Yan Hao said. Yan Hao mentioned that they had spoken to Hu Yating less than ten times in three years, and they had not mentioned to anyone that they were coming to invite the spirit of the plate. Hu Yating, who had no connection with them, somehow heard about it and insisted on getting involved, which was unusual for her.

The cold air was coming from the window, and I carefully lifted the curtain to look outside

According to incomplete statistics, as of now, there is one ghost hanging, one fox spirit, one little ghost, and one head of a dead person in the Xiao Er Lou.

I am so tired that I could die, and I am too lazy to care about what she really means. I went back to my room and went to sleep.

Missing

I am currently a thriving businessman, and it would be too regrettable to die like this

Before she finished speaking, she was interrupted by Lu Lin, who said, "Impossible."

I assure you with confidence: "If I say there is nothing, then there is nothing. If there is anything, I will take responsibility for it. Hurry back home."

These two seem to know each other. I touched the wound on my back and said, "You should have mentioned that you know her."

Several villagers nearby were whispering: "Why was the cremation done so quickly"

After a while, the girl had already run neatly to the other side of the river, waved at us, and ran back.

I said, "Isn't this quite normal?"

Yan Hao said to me: "Don't take it to heart, Zhao Yi's death affected her the most, which is why her attitude towards you is not good"

However... considering the current housing prices and my piece of land, I feel that it wouldn't be a big deal to die in this house.

The river flows gently, and the water is clear enough to see the bottom; where is the dead river

That person had a look of hesitation, glancing at me a few times before shifting their gaze to the refrigerator beside me

This is considered good. Not to mention anything else, just the currently popular Korean dramas, although the male protagonists all have small eyes, their faces vary in size, and I can distinguish them clearly. However, the female protagonists are something else entirely; the curvature of each person's chin differs by less than two degrees, and their eye shapes are all remarkably similar, clearly produced from the same template and assembly line. Their standards are almost capable of passing the international IS9000 certification, and I simply cannot recognize who is who among them.

Without him saying it, I also feel it is wrong. At such a young age, idly doing nothing and catching ghosts for fun is clearly a sign of being blinded by feudal superstitions.

I said: "You two women have a heavy aura; how about I stay with you?"

I said, "If there is anything else, let's speak up; perhaps we might find a clue"

Later, I used it as a thermal insulation cabinet, and looked forward to the day when its advantages could be maximized, so that I could use it to roast chicken.

Her words were in imperative sentences, spoken word by word, with a sense of urgency.

I took a step back and said, "Then, you go first."

I just casually shouted, but I didn't expect their reaction to be so significant, and I was also stunned.

Seeing that I did not respond, the general took out a stack of paper money from his pocket and said, "Do me a favor, let's be friends"

As a result, he has now become a Taoist.

With your level of cultivation, at best, you can only see ghosts without malice and ghosts who do not want to hide their whereabouts, as well as new ghosts without cultivation. As for those who intend to harm others, unless they deliberately manifest themselves, you will not be able to see them.

At this moment, the Pixiu around the neck slowly opened its mouth: "This person has died under unusual circumstances"

Lulin pointed at me and said, "You are lying!"

Strangely enough, with the company of San Niang, the journey ahead has become exceptionally easy

Then I opened the refrigerator door and proudly said, "Let me show you something, this thing can keep things warm. You didn't have this in your time, did you?"

"Yan Yan, don't walk alone." Feng Li quickly grabbed the dog and chased after her

A total of six people were recruited for the casting, and the other five all showed up, except for Zhang Jiayan and Hu Yating, whose names were mentioned before. The rest included a girl named Feng Li, and two men, Yan Hao and Lu Lin. They also knew that this matter should not be publicized and pulled me aside.

I am feeling a sense of excitement in my heart. Just as I turned my head, I encountered the eager gaze of a hanged ghost and a woman's head. I solemnly said, "Let's forget about the hanged ghost and the severed head. There must be better tasks waiting for you."

I am a Taoist, capable of seeing things that you cannot see. Last night when you were summoning ghosts, you actually summoned a skinny one. I recounted everything that happened last night in detail and then said, "Neither the general's belly nor the skinny one's entire body, except for the Rolex, seemed like that of a bad person. Moreover, I firmly believe that nothing can stop the ghosts who are in a hurry to register their household."

"Is this house yours?" The old Taoist glanced at me, and upon seeing me nod, he stepped forward with small, measured steps, surveying the small two-story building. "I saw the demonic aura rising from this place from a hundred miles away." He waved his whisk and pointed to the roof, "Look, there is a swirling black mist around the roof."

I never thought my masculine charm was so remarkable that even girls of this age could be attracted to me, only to take a step back and say: "The age difference is too great, it's not appropriate"

I was lost in thought, my imagination running wild, while gazing at the reflection of San Niang.

That sparse scalp, hair full of artistic sense, and the half-peeled skull, all deeply stimulate my memory.

It is evident that the speaker does not understand the male psyche. I glanced at the old lady's face and held San Niang even tighter.

I watched them leave, and the last girl walked while frequently looking back at me. After taking a few steps, she suddenly ran back, stood in front of me, and shyly smiled, saying: "Thank you"

I am particularly in awe of those individuals who weep in anguish while holding the bodies; their character is truly admirable, and they are indeed models of humanity! If it were me, I certainly would not be able to do as well.

At that time, I naturally thought that this matter should be over, but I did not expect it to be just the beginning

The old man had a look of astonishment on his face: "Could it be that you think I resemble a fraud?"

He said it is not simple, so Zhao Yi's death must be very complex

Among them, it was still Hu Yating who understood manners, being the first to speak: "Thank you"

I opened the door and ran outside to stop them

These students had never seen such a captivating woman before; as they followed San Niang in, their eyes seemed glued to her, not even blinking.

This statement evidently had a certain effect, as the expressions of those high school students showed signs of wavering, waiting for me to continue speaking

The old priest smiled with satisfaction and then said: "Exorcising demons and dispelling evil is the duty of Taoism. Today, our meeting is fated, and I cannot stand by and watch you suffer. However, I have just subdued a thousand-year-old fox spirit, expending seventy percent of my spiritual power. If I were to forcefully cast spells to capture ghosts and dispel the yin, it could cause significant harm to my body. While it would not endanger my life, I would need to rest for forty-nine days afterward, consuming bird's nest and shark fin to restore my inner strength. But rest assured, as a practitioner of the way, I will not charge you excessively; my fees are fair and honest. " He then shifted his tone, saying, "This small sacrifice is nothing. After I cleanse the spirits, the yang energy in this house will rise, bringing you great benefits: good fortune, promotions, wealth, the alleviation of all ailments, longevity, and blooming romance. Additionally, I will provide feng shui services as a bonus.

The girl looked at the Pixiu on my chest, her eyes curved into a smile as she said, "Your necklace is really beautiful." Then, blushing, she took small, quick steps and ran away

However, one must speak based on factual evidence. Both Xiao Shou and Xiao Pang went hand in hand to register their household, and even if you want someone to cling to you, they might not be willing.

A few weeks ago, I was a thoroughgoing atheist

Upon opening the door, I saw the same high school students who were summoning ghosts outside my room yesterday

I ask: "Why?"

However, the enhancement of the spiritual civilization construction of the budding flowers of the motherland is not my responsibility; I am only in charge of the publicity office, particularly in the area of posting small advertisements.

The Pixiu said: "What you hear is human language, but what the dog hears is dog language"

The trapped ghost finally flew out, running this way with tears, exclaiming with a face full of grievance: "Oh my heavens, I was suffocating to death."

In the blink of an eye, I arrived at the riverbank, where the corpse had already been removed during the day, leaving only the flowing river water shimmering with phosphorescence, creating a scene of quietude and tranquility

"It is not that I want to trouble you, but we are in a hurry. Could you please do me a favor?" The ghost, with a protruding belly like a general, extended his wrist for me to see, "If they bind my friend again, we will miss the last bus to reincarnation"

What else is there to doubt? I nodded repeatedly

"What nonsense are you talking about?" The man glanced at us and said, "Those standing are all people"

I believe this is something that other ghosts and monsters should learn from. I glanced at the graceful and stunning San Niang standing beside me and sincerely said, "Especially those who are beautiful."

The few individuals exchanged glances, Yan Hao nodded at Feng Li, and the petite girl turned around and ran towards the riverbank

I stared at the refrigerator in astonishment

A female voice shouted: "Xiao Ma Ge."

I was taken aback and asked, "What girl?"

I asked: "So how do you plan to protect yourselves?"

A thin, forlorn male ghost stood on the plate, looking as miserable as a scapegoat

I had anticipated that they would not believe, and asked: "Why have you come here to summon ghosts?"

They remain silent

The scene suddenly quieted down, and I could only hear the cold wind blowing through my still-unlocked door, creaking and groaning.

Just standing there, I could feel the immense brilliance radiating from him

However, there was something that caught my attention that day, which was that Hu Yating noticed the Pixiu I was wearing

The others responded one after another

No wonder that girl is always so eerie! I said, "How can a good girl like such things? Isn't that too strange?"

Yan Hao and his companions traveled with ease, suggesting that they had traversed this path multiple times. If Zhao Yiruo were to reach the riverbank, it is highly likely that she would follow the same route out of habit

The reason I previously did not believe in ghosts is related to my grandmother

I clearly remember that I returned only after watching that group of ghost summoners leave yesterday. When I came back at night, there was no one beside me, and I felt a vague sense of unease in my heart. I asked again: "Thief?"

This is the beauty! The man's interest was piqued, "Can you introduce me?"

These few people walked out reluctantly, and halfway through, Yan Hao suddenly turned and asked me, "You just moved in, right?"

This completely caught me by surprise. The day I met them, Hu Yating left the best impression on me. How did she suddenly become the most peculiar one?

It is truly a waste that this guy has not joined the ranks of the pyramid scheme; with his eloquence, if he were to exchange a few words with Master Li of the wheel-spinning technique, he would undoubtedly raise the banner of Marxism and never waver from it thereafter

Strange

The Pixiu replied: "They are summoning ghosts"

The feng shui of this place is perilous, and the阴气 is quite heavy, which is ominous indeed

In the midst of their conversation, the two had already exchanged glances, and they could see each other clearly. San Niang paused her movements, gazing at the old woman, her eyes filled with confusion, and asked: "Cui Ping?"

After I finished speaking, Feng Li and Yan Hao both looked at Zhang Jiayan. Yan Hao said, "Zhang Jiayan's parents work out of town for long periods, and there is no one at home"

"I might as well live with her!" Feng Li said, "I will also bring my dog along."

No wonder the atmosphere in my room is so heavy; it turns out you all used it as a mortuary!

The dog clearly exhibits strong hostility towards us

I lowered my head to look at the Pixiu on my chest, feeling a warmth in my heart. This thing is indeed useful, truly confirming that saying: seeking help from others or oneself is not as good as seeking Pikachu.

I looked in the direction he pointed, where the blue sky was bathed in sunlight

I am also astonished; just yesterday, he was full of life, yet after one night, he has passed away

The reflection gently swayed with the ripples of the water, swaying and swaying, when I suddenly noticed that the face had undergone a slight change. First, the outline became blurred; although it was still a woman, she no longer resembled San Niang. I was astonished and gazed intently, only to see that with a movement of the water, a man's face was reflected. The face appeared as if it had been soaked in water, already distorted, with skin bruised and bleeding from all seven orifices

"I said it is related, so it is related." San Niang glanced at me with a charming and enchanting look, and playfully said, "Why aren't you leaving quickly!"

The person playing the Ouija board exclaimed: "It will rain tomorrow"

Therefore, the increased occurrence of consanguineous marriages has its advantages; in a country where people look similar, it enhances recognizability and makes identification easier

"No, no, no, you keep it for yourself," I said, shaking my hand. "I have no use for it."

The more I think about it, the more I feel that this possibility is very high. Many people can get into a fierce conflict over trivial matters, let alone something as significant as handling household registration

In order to facilitate their understanding, I first laid the groundwork: "Ghosts, you see, can be categorized into good and bad, virtuous and evil."

Later, one of my friends fell in love with Korean dramas and criticized me for being old-fashioned. So, I figured out a pattern: whenever I saw an international IS9000 certified chin, I would feign familiarity and exclaim, "Isn't this little Jin?" I could basically guess correctly nine out of ten times.

"Of course not," said San Niang slowly. "That girl looks quite young; she probably hasn't been dead for long."

It turns out to be madness

The man supported the old lady as they walked outside. After taking a few steps, the old lady suddenly let out a chilling laugh, turned her head, pointed at the river, looked at me with clear eyes, and said word by word: "This river is a dead river"

The uncomfortable feeling vanished in an instant, and those few individuals appeared to be as usual.

Hasn't she already merged with her body? How has she returned to me again? I have long told her that this thing is very important and must be secured properly; it cannot be lost. This clearly shows that she did not listen to my advice

I am picking at my ears with no interest whatsoever

I was shocked by the title "uncle," which has no basis in reality. Just as I was about to teach this kid a lesson, I suddenly heard someone nearby scream: "Hand! The hand has let go!"

These high school students are convinced that it was because of my disturbance, and that someone died because I did not send the spirit away, so they stubbornly sit outside my second-floor window.

I saw the person's eyes filled with curiosity, and I thought to myself that this house had not been lived in for many years. Trapped in this house, he might not have encountered such high technology. He proudly patted the refrigerator door and asked, "Have you seen this? This is called a refrigerator, high technology."

"Look at what you are saying." I said seriously: "Helping others, no, helping ghosts is the essence of happiness, I will help you!"

I instinctively looked in the direction she pointed, but my mind was filled with a loud bang.

The old man shouted from behind: "Why are you leaving? Don't you trust me?"

The one who drowned is named Zhao Yi, one of those who invited the spirit yesterday. He died in a river three kilometers away. When I arrived, the body had just been lifted. The bearers of the stretcher passed by me, and a hand, swollen from being soaked in water, hung down from the white cloth covering the body, pale and ghastly.

I was watching in shock when suddenly I heard a woman's voice behind me, which startled me and made me shiver

Hey, where did these people develop such bad habits? They only speak halfway!

Was it murder or was he harmed by some "dirty thing"? He spoke half a sentence and then never spoke again

At this moment, the full moon shines brightly, and the river water is so clear that the bottom is visible. I can even see the charming face of San Niang behind me reflected in the water

Yan Hao continued, "Moreover, the individuals originally designated for this session of inviting the spirit of the plate were myself, Zhang Jiayan, Feng Li, and Lu Lin; she was not among them."

However, these doubts are strange yet not strange; I originally knew three friends, all of whom had long faces and styled their hair in a three-seven parting, and I could never distinguish between their appearances.

Of course it matters! Zhang Jiayan glared at me fiercely, "It is your fault! You have caused us all to die!"

The boy, startled and sitting on the ground, dusted off his clothes and stood up: "Uncle, please don't scare people like that, it's dangerous!"

Then, with a bang, the door was closed

At this moment, this person was looking at me with an eager, almost obsequious gaze, making me feel a chill run down my spine

The answer is singular—he submerged his head in the water and drowned himself.

Feng Li blurted out: "Could it be ... ... "

I continue to laugh: "Hahahahahaha"

The river, which just moments ago shimmered with glimmers of light, has unexpectedly transformed into a dark red color resembling human blood, with faint white bones floating on its surface

Such a tragic death

It seemed as if he could read my thoughts, Yan Hao explained: "This was discovered when I was looking into her information after her disappearance. During her three years in high school, her grades were consistently average, never exceptionally good nor particularly poor. She never had any disputes with others, nor did she have any close friends."

Isn't that settled? I snapped my fingers, but there was no sound

After going around in circles with me for half a day without any results, I finally noticed that it was getting late and said: "How about this, since there are people at your home, I will take you back today, and starting tomorrow, I will escort you to and from school every day. Since there are parents at home, you won't be afraid."

Do you dare to say it clearly and directly in one go

I detest speaking with heavy breathing

Indeed, the world is full of uncertainties; in this vast universe, changes are myriad, and the field of study one chooses does not necessarily determine the job one can secure

Ah?

San Niang shot me a glance and scolded, "Fool, although that Pixiu is a divine beast, it is not only lazy but also taciturn and fierce in temperament. Moreover, it is proud and haughty, and it was sent to assist a useless person like you in cultivating. Can't you see its unwillingness? In name, you are its master, but as long as it does not submit to you, it will not sincerely help you. You are clumsy, your spells are weak, and you are both unattractive and useless. What clues can you possibly find here on your own?"

I waved my hand and said, "It's nothing, it's nothing."

Just as I was lost in thought and hesitating, a deep voice suddenly came from behind me

The old lady has already been taken away by that man. San Niang gazes at their departing figures, uncertain of what she is thinking.

That refrigerator was purchased from the second-hand market when I was still living in a high-end small apartment. I was captivated by its splendid appearance and modest price, and without a second thought, I made the purchase

Thus, I decided to reveal the truth of last night

She came from out of town and has been living on campus since the beginning of her first year in high school. She has always been quiet and has never caused any trouble. Her grades are neither good nor bad, and she is quite unremarkable. No one has ever seen her family. However, that day when I returned after our breakup, she did not go back to the dormitory. In the past two days, not even a shadow of her has been seen.

Yan Hao quickly stopped her, then turned to me and said: "Lu Lin was hit by a car yesterday"

At that moment, a sharp voice rang out: "Water ghost! Water ghost! Ahhh! Water ghost!"

I have sorted out my thoughts and, without hesitation, said: "Alright, I will stay at your house and provide close protection 24 hours a day"

Zhang Jiayan glared at me fiercely and said, "If I have to live with you, I would rather be haunted by ghosts!"

I turned around and silently walked into the house

The others could not hear the sound of the Pixiu, but I heard it clearly. As I walked out, I curiously asked, "How can that dog understand human language?"

What? Those people clearly did not hear that sentence.

The little girl simply does not understand the gravity of the situation; this is a river where people have recently drowned

The nosebleed was caused by me picking my nose

"It is to invite the spirit of the plate," Feng Li said, "because this house is a haunted house, filled with heavy yin energy"

This is unfortunate; just hearing it makes me uncomfortable. This person has such a loose tongue! It's only because I can't compete with her rare beauty, like that of a vixen, that I let her have her way. Otherwise, I would definitely go up and kiss her

I hurriedly entered the house and locked the door

As soon as these words were spoken, I felt the air around me suddenly grow heavy, as if it were being maliciously scrutinized by someone. That gaze was coming from the position where that group of students was standing! I was taken aback and turned to look at them.

If the spirit of the plate is not sent away, it will cling to you all, and everyone will die

A sharp and piercing sound broke through the night, sending chills down the spine of those who heard it

The child tidying up next to me looked at me with a strange expression: "Who is he talking to?"

I turned my head in surprise to look, and upon doing so, I was so frightened that I nearly twisted my neck.

I said: "If I could see Zhao Yi's soul, then I could clarify the matter."

Suddenly, a burst of delicate laughter reached my ears. I turned to look, and there stood San Niang at her door, smiling at me. In a sweet voice, she asked, "Ma Ge, are you really not afraid of us"

"Water ghost! Water ghost!" The old lady screamed while picking up a branch from the ground, waving it to strike at San Niang, shouting as she swung, "I'll kill you! You harm others! You harm others! I'll kill you!"

Yan Hao paused for a moment and then said, "She has disappeared."

This path is seldom traveled, and now the sky has turned completely dark, with not a single person around. It is early summer, the wild grass is lush, and the sound of crickets can be heard everywhere, occasionally interrupted by the croaking of frogs

"Zhang Jiayan, what are you saying?" a boy shouted

Zhang Jiayan let out a cold laugh and said, "Who are you? Just because you say it doesn't matter, does it really not matter?"

Although it is a hot day, the elderly lady is wearing a thick cotton coat in dark green

For these children who have been misled by feudal superstitions, one must use poison to counteract poison, and evil to combat evil

I have seen this person before

The atmosphere is too heavy, I said: "A person cannot be brought back to life, so do not be too sad."

I thought about the group of hanging ghostly fox spirits and dead children at home, and said to her very seriously: "You can live in my house; I cannot guarantee anything else, but I can assure you that you will die faster here than outside"

Could the late-night snack she mentioned be me

Mom! A man in his forties or fifties ran over from a distance, went up to support the old lady, and said, "Why did you come here again? Hurry and come back with me."

Quickly pack up and go home, go back, go back

As I spoke, the old lady's branch had already fallen down. I quickly turned around while holding San Niang, and the branch struck my back with a loud crack.

This is a country lane, where the city has not yet developed. The sides of the road are overgrown with weeds, and there are no streetlights installed.

Ah! Zhang Jiayan was startled, hiding behind me. The dog crouched slightly, baring its teeth, and was on guard against us, emitting a low growl from its throat, as if it were ready to pounce at any moment

This misunderstanding has escalated! I hurriedly waved my hands and said, "No, no!"

I turned my head to look, and behind me stood an old lady, her face contorted as she pointed at San Niang and screamed

Perhaps there exists a possibility that the general and the thin man ultimately failed to meet the deadline for registering their household, leading to resentment and hatred, which they directed towards those who invited the spirit medium.

Disc spirit? I looked around at the slowly dissipating entities, and there were no spirits to be found, only wild ghosts.

Logically, I should have been awakened by the cold by now, yet I find that I cannot open my eyes no matter what, and I stubbornly slept until dawn.

I said: "How could you have gone back again? This is impossible!"

I was reminded of those dead children from last night, a wave of nausea washed over me, so I simply climbed into bed to sleep

The chilling wind gradually dissipated, and the surrounding air began to warm up

I am a person with a wide social circle and know many people. I said, "Among them, there is a friend named Xiao Pang, who is a writer. One day, after he posted an article online, someone replied. As a result, he happily went to take a look, and the most common reply was 'The original poster has no JJ', while the second most common reply was 'The original poster is a eunuch'. Xiao Pang felt a lot of pressure, hahahahahahaha.

Ah... that old lady trembled like a frightened rabbit

However, it is indeed strange that although the ominous energy surrounds the roof, it has not infiltrated the interior of the house. There must be something protecting this house. The old Taoist retracted his whisk and asked me, "Do you believe it?"

Comrade, the general laughed and added, "If we miss the bus, we will live in your house for the rest of our lives"

"That one, and that one." She pointed at Yan Hao, then at Lu Lin, and Dingtian licked her lips, "Is it you who brought me the late-night snack?"

The old lady seemed to have found a lifeline, clinging to the man's arm without letting go, crying like a child and saying: "There are ghosts, there are ghosts"

At first glance, it seemed a bit unfamiliar, but upon a second look at the nosebleed, I understood.

Those people have already been stunned into silence

A circle of fellow villagers gathered nearby, whispering: "It was discovered by the fishermen in the morning, it seems to be an accident"

The village chief said that the child's death was suspicious, possibly due to a water ghost taking a substitute, and the body cannot be left behind

Feng Li chased for half a day without catching up, so angry that tears were about to fall, she stamped her foot and said: "Forget it, I won't take it with me. I will live with Yan Yan by myself. If I get haunted to death, so be it!" Then she went inside to grab a backpack and said to us: "Let's go."

That gaze was exceptionally vicious, unlike that of a girl in her teens

I am feeling frustrated; previously, they all believed my fabrications one by one, but when I speak the truth, they do not believe me instead

How could such a strong boy drown?

However, given that things have reached this point, facing these pairs of eyes waiting for my explanation, I cannot possibly say that I do not know

Hu Yating is the most eccentric

Ah Huang is still barking

Feng Li's eyes turned red again: "She might have already... already..."

Those fellows looked at me with reluctance

"He drowned in the water; perhaps his soul is also floating in the water"

Yan Hao thought for a moment and said, "In fact, Hu Yating is the most peculiar person."

Zhang Jiayan scolded, "Do you want to shirk responsibility?!" After saying this, she rushed over with red eyes, wanting to hit me

Such a shallow river, even if one is pushed into it, one will quickly rise again

The woman glanced at me and scolded, "Don't you know how to knock? How rude!"

I feel uncomfortable about the death of a person, but to insist that it was because I shouted yesterday that caused the death is simply not credible

The Taoist outside the door persistently shouted: "If you do not exorcise the evil from this house soon, within seven days, there will surely be a disaster involving bloodshed"

I asked: "What is this ... ... doing?"

The Pixiu hanging around the neck let out a disdainful snort

To suffocate oneself when one is fully aware that survival is possible

I recognized that this is the girl who was frightened and let go just now. Now that I see her clearly, she has a very clean appearance and looks quite delicate.

No one is being polite with you! I raise my fist: "If you keep stuffing money into my hands, I will get angry with you. Don't force me to take action."

Upon returning, I discovered that its appearance was indeed consistent; not only were its functions and price equally modest, but it also came with a thermal insulation feature that other refrigerators lacked—after placing cooked instant noodles inside for one hour, they remained hot when taken out

I took two steps back, and I also believe that I am exceptionally handsome and talented, but when a person is staring at me with a flushed face, it is truly unsettling

I secretly let out a sigh of relief

On the third day after Zhao Yi's death, the Zhao family began to arrange the funeral

Within three days, among the six individuals who played the Ouija board, one died, one went missing, and one was involved in a car accident

Why would a tall boy, standing at 1.8 meters, run to the riverbank in the middle of the night

A person who can swim, without any external interference, why would they drown in a river that poses no threat to them?

Several people looked over

"Do you see that?" the general said to the ghosts gathered nearby, "This is what it means to be a true social do-gooder, doing good deeds without expecting anything in return"

San Niang stood at the door looking outside: "Oh, what is happening? It is so lively."

My name is Hu Yating. The girl blushed as she spoke, looking quite shy. I study at No. 2 High School, and I am in my third year of high school this year

I quickly looked down, then turned around and scolded: "You are lying, I am wearing shorts, there is no zipper!"

The man cleared his throat and shyly said, "Good morning." Then his face turned red.

She is the shortest among us," Yan Hao said, "Zhao Yi is nearly 20 centimeters taller than her. Do you really think that someone of his height, who can swim, would drown in this river?

As I turned my head, a vibrant beauty stood under the moonlight, gazing at me with a beaming smile

The general's belly expressed deep gratitude towards me, forcefully stuffing paper money into my arms while repeatedly saying, "Thank you, thank you"

My heart fluttered, girls should be like this, adorable

Sanniang looked at her "midnight snack" with a smile as it walked out the door, showing no intention of stopping it. She simply turned her head and asked me: "Xiao Ma Ge, haven't you felt that something is amiss from just now until now?"

I stand alone here, my back completely chilled

"Mister Ma." The man cleared his throat and said, "I was the steward here in my lifetime, a person who has studied abroad and tasted foreign ink, but I passed away too early and did not get to marry a wife..."

Feng Li, accompanied by her dog Ah Huang, felt her mood brighten and struck up a conversation with me: "How did you become a Taoist priest?"

Such a uniquely individual woman stands out in any refrigerator, as conspicuous as a one-hundred-yuan note dropped on the ground

Yesterday we returned quite late, his home is in the village, in the opposite direction from here. Why did he choose to walk for nearly half an hour to the riverside at such a late hour

Sanniang squinted her eyes and looked at me ambiguously: "It's the one who came in behind you, with long hair."

No one is shy with you

Where is it wrong? I asked

Yan Hao said: "You once claimed to be a Taoist, and this matter has arisen because of you; you should provide us with protection"

"Ah Huang! Ah Huang! What is going on?" Feng Li chased it around the yard, "It has never behaved like this before"

The general patted my shoulder: "It is not easy for us to be ghosts. If we miss the bus and cannot register on the death roll, we will even lose our household registration. You know how difficult it is to obtain a household registration now. At that time, we can only be wandering souls without the chance to reincarnate, and that could last for hundreds of years"

Zhang Jiayan said: "At first glance, he is clearly insane"

She had not attended class for two days, yet the teacher did not notice that someone was missing from the class. She had been living on campus for four years, and her roommate did not even realize she had not returned to the dormitory until we reminded her. Later, when we went to the police station to report her missing, not a single person could describe what she looked like, including me, Zhang Jiayan, and Feng Li, who had seen her just the day before. Yan Hao, seeing my puzzled expression, explained, "It's like you remember her name in your mind, and you can match it to the person when you see them, but if that person is not in front of you, you cannot describe what they look like at all."

Fifty percent of ghost stories are set in schools. In school ghost stories, among those who summon the Pen Fairy or the Plate Fairy, typically three out of four will die. If luck is not on their side, the protagonist may also meet a tragic end.

But what kind of complexity it is, is hard to articulate. If you drown in water in a single posture, that is simple; however, if you drown while simultaneously performing a frog stroke, that is complex

I can even smell the foul odor coming from the river

Lu Lin shouted: "Did you not say that nothing would happen?"

Strangely enough, as soon as he finished speaking, the dog immediately fell silent, let out a low whimper, and then followed Feng Li with its tail between its legs
