Chapter 4: Ghosts

"Brother Tian!" Yu Xiaoxue trembled violently, and I could feel the coldness all over her body.

However, the girl's body temperature and the bulging feelings on her chest made me embarrassed and just about to comfort me, but the door suddenly seemed to be pushed open again, and it was opened!

My wife and sister hurriedly pulled the corner of my clothes, and I stood up immediately, and even pulled Yu Xiaoxue back two steps.

Outside the door, there was a group of people standing there, all of whom were dressed in a dish and had a pale face. Did they not have dinner for two days? I thought to myself.

But I know these people, they are all uncles and aunts in the village, and many of them are even children.

Most young people go out to work, most of them are middle-aged and elderly people and children.

They all come to burn incense together?

Soon, my expression, which was a little warm on my face, slowly became stiff because these people had no intention of taking another step forward.

"Uncle Li, Aunt Li, are you here to burn incense?" I calmed down my fear and asked a middle-aged couple standing in the middle of the crowd from a distance.

What made me feel the chill in my heart suddenly was that Uncle Li and Aunt Li seemed to have not heard me speak, staring at the incense in the basin.

Several children were sucking their fingers, looking like they were eating candy, and giggling. In my opinion, their smiles were gloomy and cunning.

Could it be...

My heart was beating wildly, and the chill rushed towards me as if it was venting everywhere. I found that my calves were trembling, because these things that I never believed were now washing my nerves.

"Tian... Brother Tian... They... They won't come in to burn incense, because when I burn incense, they stood at the door and watched me burn it. Once the incense was destroyed, they left. I told them not to agree..." Yu Xiaoxue stammered and said to me, her face had already scared to pieces.

After hearing this, my mind was like a bang and burst into pieces: I said Yu Xiaoxue, Yu Xiaoxue, should I say you are innocent and innocent, or should I say you are too crazy? You didn’t even notice anything wrong with the fragrance burning so quickly? It was the group of 'things' in front of you who were eating!

I was in a dilemma, and the incense was too strong to end, but once I burned the incense, it would attract these "dirty things". I had never seen ghosts before, but now, I saw a group of them all at once!

"Can you see them?"

Yu Xiaoxue nodded like a chicken pecking at rice: "Yes!"

"Don't you know what they are?" I stared at Yu Xiaoxue in confusion, unable to speak. What a big brain nerve this girl has!

Yu Xiaoxue shook her head first, then seemed to understand, covered her mouth with her hands and couldn't say a word.

Not to mention that Yu Xiaoxue is like this, even I have seen such a ghost.

My wife and sister pulled the corner of my clothes, and this time there was no sign of letting go. I couldn't step forward. Of course, I didn't dare to get close to them, so I could only watch them enjoy the incense here.

My grandmother said that people who come into contact with ghosts are seriously ill, and those who are severe are lost. I used to have too many ghosts, so I often get seriously ill.

As the three incense burned the fastest, a few of them began to slowly turn their heads and look at Yu Xiaoxue and me, as if they wanted to walk in, but something seemed to block them at the door.

"Brother Tian, ​​my dad's soul is also outside, but no matter how I told him to ignore me these two days, I left as soon as I approached him... It was the same as when I got home. He obviously saw him standing at the door, and he hid from me when he ran home..." Yu Xiaoxue's eyes were red and she said at a loss.

Uncle Yu Gen's ghost was indeed standing outside, sank into the crowd, and was relatively far away.

I saw that Yu Xiaoxue had signs of mental breakdown and was shocked. It seemed that she was not completely innocent and innocent, but something that she had encountered before that was difficult to care about, which led to an important memory staggering, which made her cognitive deviation.

I began to think of Zhang Yidan, so I opened the question and asked her: "Where is your brother Yidan? Have you seen him?"

When Yu Xiaoxue heard me ask, she came to her senses: "On the day my mother-in-law passed away, Brother Dan and her sister-in-law left the village and didn't come back."

I was relieved when I heard this, but I was lost again: Yidan took his wife? Then why did I see him alone on the way to the village? This is two days before he left the village!

Could it be...

Is Zhang Yidan dead?

I was a little sad. My friend was dead. I and Yu Xiaoxue were now like clowns on the stage, being observed by the group of "things" outside. Maybe they would be reimbursed here later.

I almost wanted to close the door, but I couldn't leave the place at all. My wife and sister held me tightly and refused to let me go. This was a direct restriction on my movements.

Just as I was thinking of other ways, the two doors began to ring. I suddenly looked outside. Uncle and Aunt Li and a group of people in the village all showed smiles, and there was an indescribable strangeness on their blue-gray faces.

"Burn incense!" Seeing that the last incense in the ashes were burned, I quickly asked Yu Xiaoxue to let the incense continue to burn, at least until dawn tomorrow.

After I arrived, Yu Xiaoxue seemed to have woken up a lot and noticed that the situation was wrong. Her little body was trembling, and she took a few incense sticks and lit it.

The fragrance this time is the same as what I burned it, and it is strangely different in length, and it is still the "evil fragrance". It seems that both of us can't be good tonight.

After the incense burned, the surrounding wind slowed down, and the group of ghosts outside the door was no longer restless. What’s important is that my wife and sister’s letting go made me feel relieved for a while.

But then I suddenly thought of Yu Xiaoxue as the only living person in the village, why can she be safe and sound in Xiaoyitun?

"Xue, think about it carefully, what were my grandmother doing before she passed away? What were the people in the village doing? When did these... ghosts appear?" I asked her without saying a word.

After hearing me say the word "Ghost", Yu Xiaoxue's face disappeared in an instant, and she sat beside me with her knees in her arms.

"Two days before my mother-in-law passed away, I asked everyone in Xiaoyitun to pack up and leave. I didn't know what happened at that time, and the adults were in a mess. There were elderly people at home and left one after another, but some of the elderly people didn't leave after noticing."

Yu Xiaoxue recalled it with lingering fear and looked at Uncle Li and Aunt Li at the door.

Uncle Li is called Li Changkun, who is the head of the village. It would be normal for him not to leave, and if he does not leave, it will greatly affect most people.

As for the elderly at home, they were the ones who lived in Xiaoyitun when grandma first came. They all knew their grandma’s abilities, and young people may not have experienced any evil things, so they no longer trust their grandma.

"My mother-in-law advised them for a long time but it was useless. Then she asked me to persuade her father and asked him to discuss with Uncle Li, but my father didn't listen to me when I went there. After my mother-in-law passed away, there was a heavy fog in Xiaoyi Village, and everyone started to catch a cold and fever, and then coughed up blood."

Yu Xiaoxue's chest began to fluctuate significantly, and then she looked at Uncle Yu Gen who was staring at the door in fear, and said in confusion: "I remember I also had a cold and a fever, but later, I slept for two days and two nights and woke up. My father seemed to be getting better, but he always avoided me..."

According to Yu Xiaoxue, the death of my grandmother made the road in Xiaoyi Village foggy, which was also the cause of death for everyone. But in this era, even if you have a cold or a fever, it would be a bit absurd.

I don’t know why Yu Xiaoxue didn’t die, but I quickly blamed her grandmother. Maybe she gave Yu Xiaoxue some powerful evil-proof items.

It was like the Yin Tong Talisman on my body. When I thought of the paper Talisman, I immediately took it out and pinched it in my hand. I tried to shake it a few times. The next moment, Yu Xiaoxue and I saw that the ghost soul bodies outside were a little unstable at the same time. It seemed that the reason why they dared not approach us was largely due to this talisman paper.

Tongyin Talisman is a thing drawn by pure yang essence and blood, which can help ghosts and gods and avoid demons and evil spirits.

However, I also clearly felt that the paper talisman was much dimmer than before. It seemed that although this thing was good, it was not very useful. When it failed, it would probably be the death of Yu Xiaoxue and I.

"Then have you seen this thing?" Yu Xiaoxue has been safe these days. The only explanation is that she also has this talisman paper.

"It's my mother-in-law's Yin Tong Talisman!" Yu Xiaoxue answered me, but her eyes widened and she covered her mouth.

She probably saw the unstable appearance of the ghosts at the door. If she still thinks it is human, she will be crazy.

"It seems you know this thing." I nodded.

"My mother-in-law burned it into talisman water a few days ago... I drank it for me, it was so disgusting." Yu Xiaoxue's face was terrible pale. She was trying to digest the fact that the group of things outside were indeed ghosts.

But I slapped my head: Yes! Why did I forget this? The Yin Tong Talisman can be burned and flushed, and the timeliness is doubled! Now I hold it in my hand like this, and although it is majestic, its effectiveness is greatly reduced.

I picked up a disposable cup casually and was about to ignite the Yin Talisman, but when I reached out to ignite it, my wife and sister grabbed me.

I suddenly looked outside. Uncle and Aunt Li were already round and convex at this moment, and her face was ferocious. It seemed that they were planning to pounce on me in the gap when I burned the talisman paper. At that time, no matter how powerful the door god my grandmother painted was, a group of ghosts would be able to kill me if they tried to kill me.

I quickly put the Tongyin Talisman back to my wallet. I thought it was so dangerous that I almost did something stupid.

Yu Xiaoxue was confused and asked me why she was not like her. I had to say that I couldn't get used to this food.

"The fragrance is about to be finished again." I asked Yu Xiaoxue to continue burning the incense, and I began to think about what will happen next in my heart.

According to the time when the characters of Tongyin Talis disappear, I can last for up to two or three days. As for how long Yu Xiaoxue can last, I don’t know, but her current face will definitely not be too long. After all, I have been alone in Xiaoyitun, which is full of dirty things, and I guess I won’t be much better if I don’t die.

Once the yin energy overwhelms her yang energy, the death period will come immediately. This time you won’t catch a cold, and you will cough up blood and then your life will be over.

I couldn't figure out a solution because I had never encountered such a thing before. After thinking about it, I decided to go to my grandmother's bedroom to see it. It would be best if I could find the extra Tongyin Talisman. If I didn't help, I might be able to find clues about this matter left by my grandmother.

So in order to save Yu Xiaoxue, I stood up and walked towards my grandmother's bedroom despite my wife and sister's obstruction, but in just a blink of an eye, I grabbed the corner of my clothes.
