Chapter 10, something has arrived in the village
The black tiger also began to roar, constantly turning around, appearing restless and agitated
And now it just so happens that we need to use the urine of a young boy
As the glutinous rice swelled after soaking, the sky had already darkened. I hurriedly opened the door and scattered the soaked glutinous rice in a circle around the shop. The ghostly number indicated that it was sufficient to scatter it in front of the doors and windows, but I was not at ease, so I scattered it in circle after circle, layer upon layer.
Moreover, on that day in the bamboo forest, it cannot be ruled out that he saved me from the side, perhaps he had already discovered that someone was impersonating him
Not only the two of them, but all the dogs in the village began to bark in unison
I did not expect that the message was actually sent, and it indicated that the recipient has received it.
As time gradually passed, after 1 o'clock, the barking of the dogs in the village diminished. The black tiger also stopped barking and ran over to rub against my leg, as if to comfort me. The large rooster, too, fell silent, crouching on the straw and looking around.
The large speckled rooster called out to me twice, its pair of pitch-black eyes fixed intently on me
Time gradually passes, and the night deepens
A chilling howl echoed from a distance. Then came a second, a third, all emanating from the north, the sound resembling that of a wolf, yet not entirely so
My heart suddenly leaped to my throat. To the north of the village, isn't that precisely the direction of Hong Qingsheng's home? How could there be a wolf's howl? Could it be that wolves have entered the village?
The fortune teller took out his backpack and began to pack his things. Seeing that I did not understand, he explained, saying: "I am going on a long journey to find my senior apprentice."
Goo goo goo goo ... ...
I was greatly astonished that there was a fire at Hong Qingsheng's home
After finishing, I returned to the shop, securely closing all the doors and windows. I added two locks to the door and nailed the windows shut with wooden strips. Then, I took good care of the black tiger and that large rooster, quietly waiting for the thing that would harm me to appear
twelve o'clock
You can hate, and it's fine to become a ghost, but you must not be blind
Suddenly, the phone emitted a piercing ringing sound. I was already highly tense, and I was so startled that the phone fell under the bed.
You have benefactors to assist you, and I must also seek out my own benefactor
I was so scared that I almost threw my phone away; it had saved me once that night in the bamboo forest, so it wouldn't deceive me. The certainty in the words was too obvious.
It is said that the soul of a deceased person will return home on the seventh day after death to take a look. If the soul harbors too much resentment, it will abandon reincarnation and transform into a ghost
Making excuses to disappear, and then secretly watching me
ten fifty-three
I feel a lingering reluctance for him to leave, not for any other reason, but because he said we are both in the same predicament, sharing the same suffering. Having him around is always better than me pondering aimlessly alone
How long until you return
The seventh night, also known as the night of returning souls
I perked up my ears to listen carefully to the outside; I do not know whether tonight is destined to be different or if it is merely my illusion, but it feels as though the village is too quiet this evening, to the point of being deathly silent
I had no choice but to set aside the Wong Tai Sin and refocus my attention on the ghost number. After some thought, I decided to be straightforward and sent a text message: Who are you, and why should I listen to you?
After the Wong Tai Sin finished speaking, he began rummaging through the boxes and cabinets in search of something
After the howling sound echoed two or three times, it fell silent, but the dogs in the village did not quiet down at all; instead, they barked even more fiercely. In the midst of this, a faint sound of a dog’s wail could even be heard, which was particularly chilling
I placed the clock of my phone on the table, watching the time pass by second by second.
Do not make fun of me, try it yourself. If you can't urinate, it would be a serious matter. This is a life-threatening issue and must not be taken lightly.
In any case, with more rice, there will be more urine, so there is no fear of waste
I took out my phone again to check, and I was almost scared to the point of losing control. There was no call at all. Not even a call log; Ma Jialiang didn't call me at all just now, it was purely an illusion
What are you doing
As soon as I pressed the answer button, I heard Ma Jialiang's loud voice, "Chun Ge, it's not good, Hong Qingsheng's house is on fire, go put it out!"
As I reflect on it, the figure of the Wong Tai Sin becomes clearer, yet it also starts to blur again
ten fifty-four
I felt a mix of anxiety and unease, and my mind began to wander aimlessly, lacking any clear direction, as I redirected my attention back to this ghost message
... ...
What is it
I did not dare to close my eyes the entire night, not even after the rooster crowed, keeping my eyes wide open until dawn.
I hurriedly took out a piece of white paper and wrote a few words on it with a pencil: "Absolutely do not go out." I then blacked it out and placed it in front of me as a warning, reminding myself to never act impulsively and make foolish decisions.
The ghost of sending text messages is the Great Immortal Wong Tai Sin
Hong Qingsheng's wife died unjustly, and with the addition of a child, how heavy is this resentment
The attitude of the Wong Tai Sin was very resolute; he insisted on leaving. I accompanied him to the bus station, and just before he left, he said to me in a serious whisper: "Remember, just stay in Hong Village and do not go anywhere. The more you run when danger comes, the faster you will die!"
The large rooster rose, its pair of eagle-like eyes fixed intently on the northern direction of the village, the feathers on its neck standing on end
Moreover, I played a trick in the text message, implying that I would not act as he suggested. If he truly does not wish for me to encounter any trouble, he will certainly take some other action, at the very least, he will provide an explanation
As soon as I heard it, a chill ran through my mind, and I immediately calmed down. What was I thinking just now? I clearly knew that something happened tonight that could harm me, yet I was still heading outside? No, my reaction just now was very inappropriate.
I swallowed a mouthful of saliva, hurriedly stepped back, and sat down on the bed, keeping a distance from the door. It was that rooster that saved me; if it weren't for it, I might have really rushed out.
It sent me a text message at midnight: "Tomorrow night, use virgin boy urine and glutinous rice, sprinkle it in front of the doors and windows, for emergency use, remember!"
11 o'clock
I am extremely frightened, so I took an old kitchen knife from under the pillow. This knife has been used in the household for over ten years, having killed countless chickens, ducks, fish, and even dogs. The elders say that such a knife carries a killing aura and can ward off evil spirits. I do not know if this saying is true, but having a knife in hand certainly gives me a bit more courage
Subsequently, I could not help but shake my head; the Wong Tai Sin had no grievances or enmity with me, and he did not even know me before. It did not seem like he was faking it, as he was scared away by that thing in the village. If he were indeed a ghostly figure, he would not have come that day; it makes no sense for him to harm himself.
The next several days were spent in tranquility. I sent a few text messages to the man in black, but for some reason, he did not reply, nor do I know what he is busy with.
What have I done to offend her
... ...
... ...
But I have just opened the first lock
... ...
eleven thirty
Woof woof woof
In a moment of impulse, I instinctively took out the key and went to open the door. There is a portable gasoline pump at home, and next to Hong Qingsheng's house is an ancient well, which is just what I need.
What if I live in a basement, what if I live in a tent
What?
However, I still intend to verify whether Huang Daxian has gone abroad. I took out my phone to call him, only to find that he hadn't left me his number when he left.
As soon as I heard about it, I felt overwhelmed. To go abroad and find someone with whom I have not yet made contact, isn't that like searching for a needle in a haystack? Therefore, I tentatively tried to persuade him to stay.
I let out a deep breath, has it passed?
The Wong Tai Sin left, and Ma Yong said he had to go back to work and also departed. The words of Wong Tai Sin before leaving made me dare not linger for even a moment, so I drove back to Hong Village at full speed.
Sorry, I cannot assist with that request.
Then I called Mayong again to see if he had Huang Daxian's phone number, but he said Huang Daxian seemed not to use the phone. Last time he looked for someone, he went directly to their door.
It seems that it must be constantly monitoring me by my side, otherwise how could it always know so much? Maybe it's someone I know.
After dawn, I cautiously opened the door, and only when I saw the neighbors next door had gotten up to clean did I finally feel at ease
On the glutinous rice that I sprinkled, a clear footprint of a big foot appeared!
Something happened tomorrow night. They want to harm me
I have completely lost my temper
But when I lowered my head, I was startled by what appeared before me, causing my whole body to shiver
These days, as I kept fearing, my courage grew a bit. For several days, nothing abnormal happened, and I could fall asleep at night. My energy during the day has also improved a lot. At the same time, I am silently praying in my heart, hoping that these chaotic days will pass like this and life will return to tranquility.
Moreover, what the Wong Tai Sin says at home may all be false
I unconsciously recall the pair of unblinking eyes she had before her death, filled with endless resentment, that kind of overwhelming hatred, which could never be easily relinquished.
12:15.
I clenched my fist; as long as it is willing to speak, it will surely reveal more clues
But what I don't understand is, why did Hong Qingsheng's wife come to harm me?
I do not know either," said the Wong Tai Sin, shaking his head. "My senior brother is in Thailand, and we have not been in contact for many years; I will have to find him on short notice.
I am speechless. I quickly dismissed the evil thoughts. When I think about it, if it weren't for the leather-clad guest saving my life, I would probably be dead by now. And Chen Jiutong lending me a rooster, he is also a benefactor.
Hearing a certain sound, I took out my phone and saw that it was almost 11 o'clock, and the tension in my heart suddenly tightened
At this moment, even if I am stupid, I can understand what happened. It is trying to lure me out, but I must not fall for its trap.
The next day, in the evening, I returned to the store early, soaked the glutinous rice after relieving myself, and to ensure I had enough urine, I had also drunk quite a bit of water, holding it in for an entire afternoon, nearly bursting my bladder
Could it be that...
Roar!
The black tiger bared its teeth, displaying a fierce expression, while the large cockscomb rooster stood with its feathers all ruffled, embodying the posture of a fighting chicken, instantly transforming the atmosphere into one of horror and tension
From 11:00 PM to 1:00 AM is known as the Zi hour among the twelve traditional Chinese time periods, also referred to as the midnight Zi hour. The elders in the village often say that during this time, the yin energy in the world is at its peak, making it the most likely time to encounter ghosts and malevolent spirits
Yet this fantasy was ruthlessly extinguished once again by a text message
It's that phantom number!
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration struck me; previously, when the Wong Tai Sin left, he specifically instructed me to preserve my status as a young male.
Is it possible that the one who is trying to take my things is not her
Succeeded
At that moment, suddenly...
What disappointed me was that it did not reply to me afterwards. Instead, I lost my composure and sent it another message, but unfortunately, the message failed to send, and when I called, it indicated that the number did not exist
Upon picking it up, I was surprised to find that it was a call from Ma Jialiang.
How does the person sending the message know that my residence has doors and windows
If you want revenge, go find Gao Mingchang. He is the mastermind behind it all. If he's not enough, there's also his wife Chai Jinhua, his helpers, nephews, and a bunch of hired thugs.
I quickly opened my phone and checked the date. My heart skipped a beat when I realized that tomorrow is the seventh day after the death of Hong Qing's wife.
