Chapter 6: Master Ma

Master Ma ... ... why don't you speak up ... ... who have I offended? What must I do to escape this calamity

Master Ma remained silent for a long time after hearing about my bizarre encounter, his face tense and motionless. I felt anxious and uneasy, unsure if I had committed an unforgivable mistake

According to Master Ma's instructions, the first thing I need to do now is to find the birth date and time of that female ghost

Master Ma slowly shook his head and explained: "I have said it long ago, to untie the bell, one must find the person who tied it. This ghost was summoned by you, so it must be sent away by you personally. No one else can replace you in this matter. Moreover, on the day of sending off the ghost, there must not be anyone else present; otherwise, all your efforts will be in vain. The trouble you have caused must be dealt with by yourself..."

Master ... ... is it not you who helped me deliver the ghost

Who would have thought that seven days later, Shanshan actually floated up... She emerged from the river in front of our house. I will never forget the sight of her death; her body was severely decomposed, and her face was swollen from being submerged. If it weren't for the clothes she was wearing, I wouldn't have recognized her at all... Wuwuwuwu...

Shanshan was murdered. A year ago, I was working in another city, and Shanshan's mother divorced me. Only her grandmother was at home. That night, her grandmother suddenly called me to say that Shanshan had not returned all night. I immediately came back from the construction site, and together with others, we searched all over Shanghai but found no news of Shanshan. At that time, our family was on the verge of collapse. Her classmates and friends had no idea where she had gone. A colleague even saw her walking on her way home, but... but Shanshan just disappeared like that, as if she had evaporated from the world!

So how did Shanshan actually die? And who is the murderer

You can only say that you are lucky, for at this critical moment, you have encountered me, Master Ma. No matter how formidable the ghost may be, I, Master Ma, have ways to deal with it. Seeking help from others would be futile. If you had waited two more days, you would have likely met your demise and exhausted your lifespan.

When I was about to leave, Master Ma gave me a piece of red paper, in the center of which was a double happiness character. It was meant to wrap the birth date and time of the female ghost. I voluntarily took out 500 yuan to give to him, but Master Ma firmly refused, saying that money was not important and that being able to help me was the best thing.

Uncle... please don't cry. How did Jin Shanshan die?

Shan Shan drowned in the river

Master Ma then comforted me a few more times, saying that as long as I strictly followed the steps he outlined, there would be no accidents, because hearing the ghost's wail would indicate that the ghost had already been sent away

I am sorry for Shan Shan. I was only focused on making money and neglected to care for her, which led to her accident. I deserve to die a terrible death! As Jin Weide spoke, he began to slap his own face repeatedly.

I am immensely grateful to Master Ma; I have given him at least over 2,000 yuan in cash, yet he only accepted 100 yuan. This clearly shows that Master Ma is not a greedy person; he genuinely wants to help me. It is truly rare to encounter such a kind-hearted individual with an ancient sense of integrity in this world.

Little brother, you absolutely should not have sold that phone. Selling that phone is akin to selling something belonging to a ghost; which ghost would let you off the hook? You have truly landed yourself in a great disaster this time

But then again, even if she was truly murdered, what does that have to do with me, Zheng Yan? Damn it, I wasn't the one who killed her or pushed her into the lake, so why the hell am I being blamed for this? It's really bizarre!

I have always been puzzled in my heart as to why Jin Shanshan inexplicably found me. Could it be that there exists some minuscule connection between us? It is important to note that we have never met before.

The ghost you encountered has already committed murder, which is sufficient proof that she is a vengeful spirit. As the saying goes, when a vengeful spirit attaches itself to someone, they are destined to accompany it to the underworld. This means that once a person has provoked a vengeful spirit, they must inevitably go to the underworld with it; otherwise, the spirit will relentlessly haunt them. The fact that this ghost has disturbed you for two consecutive nights indicates that she has already latched onto you, and she will surely drag you along to the underworld.

I was drenched in sweat; sending off the ghost was one thing, but having to do it alone was another. Just the thought of the woman with the umbrella at midnight made my legs go weak. To have to splash myself with black dog blood in front of her was an utterly impossible task for me

Jin Weide suddenly cried very sadly, and I hurried over to comfort him. Master Ma once said that any vengeful spirit must have a tragic ending, and Jin Shanshan's death is definitely not that simple

This matter is neither particularly difficult nor particularly simple. To resolve the issue, one must involve the person who initiated it. Since it was that woman who approached you, what you need to do now is to send this spirit away. Only in this way can you achieve a permanent solution and completely bid farewell to the disturbances caused by this malevolent spirit.

You must find the birth date and time of this vengeful spirit, stitch it onto a large piece of red paper, and then place it at your doorstep. When the spirit comes to seek you out again, throw a splash of dog blood onto its birth date and time, and you will instantly hear the spirit's wretched scream. From that moment on, it will no longer disturb you. A splash of black dog blood is the crucial key to this process.

Master Ma seemed to sense my concerns and repeatedly reassured me, "Little brother, I know you are under psychological pressure, but for your own safety, you must face this head-on. If you cannot send this ghost away this time, she is very likely to haunt you for the rest of your life, until you depart this world."

Ah? hetushu.com. My heart suddenly tightened, as if something was blocking it: "Master Ma? Do you mean to say that if I have provoked a vengeful spirit, then... there is no hope for me?"

No! Shanshan was definitely murdered. That river is right in front of our house; she couldn't have fallen in for no reason. Moreover, Shanshan knows how to swim; even if she did fall in, it wouldn't be so easy for her to drown!

This is not difficult; I contacted the father of the female ghost by phone. I met Jin Weide, who is Shanshan's father, at a construction site in the city.

Is it money? Money is not a problem, I have money! As long as you can save me, Master, I will give you all the money I have on me! I took out all the money I had in my pockets, and at that moment, I truly realized that in the face of life and death, wealth is nothing but dirt.

It is not a matter of money; I am a person of principles and will not charge a single cent more than what is due. What I need to tell you is that the method to deal with that malevolent spirit is somewhat special, and you may have to take some risks

The police still do not know who the murderer is? Shanshan's body has long been highly decomposed, making it impossible to find any clues. Therefore, they concluded that Shanshan drowned in the lake ... ... Wuwuwu ... ...

I hurriedly lit a stick of incense for her: Shanshan! There are reasons for grievances and debts have their owners, so please do not trouble me any further. Let me accompany you on your final journey tonight! Rest in peace... m.hetushu.com.com...

Master Ma pushed aside the money on the table, carefully took out a hundred-yuan bill, and wrapped it gently in a handkerchief

I made an excuse that I was a friend of Shanshan from school, and Jin Weide did not suspect me. I handed him a cigarette, and before I could light it, I couldn't help but start crying.

Master Ma's demeanor truly made me realize that there are still good people in this world

The old man at the stall next to me occasionally smiled foolishly at me and waved, signaling for me to come over. I had no mind to pay attention to him; that old man, with his sharp features, clearly had his eyes on the money in my pocket

How to send the ghost, Master?

Master Huang! Then you... you must save me! I... I am about to collapse!

Master, you said that as long as I can do it, I will definitely give it my all

Later, Jin Weide took me to see Jin Shanshan's grave. The photo on the tomb was exactly the same as the female ghost I had encountered, especially her pair of watery eyes, which seemed to be staring at me and smiling, sending chills down my spine.

I agreed through gritted teeth, thinking that if I were to be haunted by that ghost for a lifetime, I might as well be dead; death would be preferable. I agreed!

I saw Jin Weide crying sorrowfully, and I also concluded that Jin Shanshan's death must have been a murder; otherwise, she would never have turned into a vengeful spirit to trouble me

Little brother, since you have found me amidst the vast sea of people, it signifies our destined connection. I have no reason to stand by and watch you suffer, but...
