The hearse drove into the town. Zhou Cheng, who got into the hearse on the way, told Wang Qi how Li Xiaocui was possessed by the evil spirit.
Just telling Wang Qi these things made him break out in a cold sweat.
Wang Qi nodded from time to time, thoughtfully.
The comb used to comb my hair was a token of my original marriage.
The token given by the man is a comb, and the token given by the woman is a jade pendant.
However, Li Xiaocui's family had long forgotten about this baby marriage.
After Zhu Zihao died, the comb was not disposed of and was thrown away somewhere.
But last night, it appeared in Li Xiaocui's hands inexplicably.
"What did Li Xiaocui say?" Wang Qi asked.
"She doesn't know anything. She doesn't know where the comb came from. She has no memory of what happened last night." Zhou Cheng said, "I asked her personally in the morning."
"Wang Qi, you, you said...Did Zhu Zihao really come to see Li Xiaocui?"
Finally Zhou Cheng asked Wang Qi.
Although Wang Qi is doing live broadcasts to popularize science and refute rumors about feudal superstition.
But Zhou Cheng always felt that Wang Qi must have some ability.
The past two days have scared him quite a lot.
Li Xiaocui is his fiancée. Looking back...Zhu Zihao won't cause trouble for him, right?
Can I still want my unmarried daughter-in-law?
"Don't worry, I'll stay with Li Xiaocui today and watch the live broadcast to see what's going on." Wang Qi comforted Zhou Cheng, but he felt a little unconcerned.
What is evil is all feudal superstition!
Li Xiaocui sat in front of the mirror dressing up at night, maybe she was just sleepwalking.
Hasn't she been having nightmares these past two days?
When he learned that Wang Qi had received a call from Zhu Zihao, the pressure further increased, and he began to sleepwalk.
From a scientific point of view, nightmares and sleepwalking are just caused by high mental stress.
As for Li Jianguo, when he saw Li Xiaocui turning his head but his reflection in the mirror remained motionless and smiled at him, it might have been an illusion.
He had just woken up in the middle of the night, and the ghost marriage incident had left him in a state of panic and nervousness. It was normal for him to be dazzled.
And that comb...maybe it was always with her.
Of course, these are just speculations and Wang Qi did not say it directly.
Popular science about paranormal science emphasizes seeking truth from facts.
What exactly happened needs to be investigated in detail.
During the conversation, the hearse entered Lushui Town according to Zhou Cheng's instructions and arrived in front of a small courtyard of a bungalow.
This is Li Xiaocui's home.
As soon as he parked the car, Wang Qi saw a big black dog tied up outside his house.
When the big black dog heard the noise, he immediately arched his body and stared eagerly.
"Why did he leave his dog outside the door?" Wang Qi asked curiously after getting out of the car.
Usually, those who keep dogs at home keep them in their yards.
In rural areas, if you leave it outside, you may encounter dog thieves.
"There is no other way. I don't know what's wrong with this dog recently. It often steals food from the house. No matter how hard I beat it, it doesn't work, so I have to tie it outside." Zhou Cheng is quite familiar with the situation in his fiancée's house.
When Xiao Zhan saw the big black dog, he approached it curiously and stretched out his little hand to touch the big black dog's head.
"Don't touch it, be careful it bites you!" Zhou Cheng reminded quickly.
But then I saw that as Xiao Zheng approached, the big black dog's originally tense appearance suddenly subsided and lay on the ground obediently.
Let Xiao Zhan touch its head twice.
"This..." Zhou Cheng was surprised. His wife's dog was so fierce that Li Xiaocui refused to touch it.
It was the first time I saw this girl, and she was so obedient?
"My little Zhan is more popular with small animals." Wang Qi said with a smile.
Xiao Zhan squatted in front of the big black dog, staring into the black dog's eyes with his big eyes.
The eyes seem to say: Believe it or not, I will cut you!
The big black dog was trembling and did not dare to move.
Zhou Cheng went over to open the courtyard door and took Wang Qi inside.
As soon as he walked into this ordinary farmyard, Wang Qi's expression suddenly became startled.
I saw a square table in the center of the small courtyard.
Candles were lit above, offerings were placed, and a strange statue of a god was enshrined.
There are also piles of colorful flags placed around.
An old woman wearing a colorful dress, holding a handful of lit incense, was showing her teeth.
He muttered words: "The heavens are spirited and the earth is spirited. The Jade Emperor will show me Chen Xiangu soon..."
Wang Qi: "..."
"This is Xiaocui's father who invited him to exorcise evil spirits. He is the most famous goddess from all over the country, Chen Xiangu." Zhou Cheng quickly introduced.
After the incident where Li Xiaocui was possessed by evil spirits last night, her father Li Jianjun spent a lot of money early in the morning to invite this goddess over and ask her to help with the disaster.
The red comb has been burned by her, and now she is trying to break off this human-ghost engagement!
Wang Qi felt helpless, it was really feudal superstition.
Li Xiaocui's situation is most likely because she has a psychological problem. She was frightened by the baby's engagement and phone call.
Even if she doesn't see a psychiatrist, she still spends money to find this goddess... The cause of science popularization has a long way to go.
Li Xiaocui's parents were standing nearby and came over to greet them.
Zhou Cheng introduced each other.
"Did you really receive a call from Zhu Zihao?" Li Jianjun, who was dark-skinned and short and fat, asked in an anxious tone.
"That's right." Wang Qi replied.
He later called the number back and was able to get through, but no one answered.
Seeing Li Jianjun's horrified expression, Wang Qi added: "The person who called said his name was Zhu Zihao, but I haven't seen him for many years, and I don't know if it is him."
The implication is that this may be someone playing a prank.
"This...Mr. Wang." Li Jianjun opened his mouth and hesitated when addressing Wang Qi, "Can you also exorcise evil spirits?"
"Absolutely." Wang Qi replied.
Li Jianjun was stunned: "Absolutely?"
"I'm a popular science anchor." Wang Qi quickly said with a smile, "I can't exorcise evil spirits, but after I popularize science, you won't believe in evil spirits."
"..."
It took Li Jianjun a few seconds to finally understand what this meant, and his expression immediately became anxious.
Aren't you here to cause trouble?
Chen Xiangu, who was doing the practice over there, heard this and looked over sideways, curling her lips.
Hehe, this guy is here to steal business!
"Uncle, Wang Qi is a classmate of Xiao Cui and I. He is really capable." Zhou Cheng quickly tried to persuade him, "It was Wang Qi who settled Liu Si's issue in our town some time ago."
"Didn't Liu Si say he faked his death? My Cuihua was possessed by an evil spirit..."
The work efficiency of the Spiritual Management Bureau is still very high.
Now many people in the town believe Wang Qi’s popular science at that time.
Zhou Cheng was unhappy and interrupted Li Jianjun: "Uncle, I specially invited Wang Qi back."
"Well, that's okay."
Li Jianjun immediately stopped refuting: "Since Chengzi said so, then you should give this live broadcast a try."
As the son of the mayor's family, Zhou Cheng still has a lot of airs in front of his future father-in-law, Li Jianjun.
"Is Wang Qi here?" A girl looked out from the window of the next room.
There was some surprise in the voice, and he was about to go out as he spoke.
"Cuihua, don't come out, Chen Xiangu said, you must stay in the house until this evil is broken." Li Jianjun shouted quickly.
"They all said don't call me Cuihua..."
The girl was Li Xiaocui. She waved to Wang Qi through the window: "Wang Qi, come and sit in the room."
Zhou Cheng's expression is a little twisted, his future wife is a little enthusiastic about Wang Qilu...
"I'll talk to her first and find out the specific situation." Wang Qi said to Zhou Cheng, then took Xiao Zheng into the house.
It's just an ordinary girl's room.
The decoration is simple and plain, the furniture is a bit old, and the dressing table beside the bed looks a bit old.
Li Xiaocui was quite enthusiastic and greeted Wang Qi. Xiao Zhan sat down on his seat and brought tea and water.
He also sat down on the bed next to him.
Wang Qi's memory of Li Xiaocui...the original Li Cuihua is already a little blurry.
At that time, he worked hard every day to get into a good university. He felt that girls would only affect his speed in answering questions and he didn't really care at all.
Now that I really see her, I can vaguely recall some impressions.
"I really didn't expect you to be a host, but I've been following you."
Li Xiaocui felt a little emotional, as if she remembered the scene when she had a crush on Wang Qi.
I dare not say who the school belle of Lushui No. 3 Middle School is, but Li Xiaocui, who is quite pretty, can barely be considered a strong contender.
But when it comes to school president, the right one is Wang Qi!
"I also did this job accidentally." Wang Qi said with a smile.
After a few jokes, the incident of Li Xiaocui being possessed by evil spirits was brought up.
Li Xiaocui herself couldn't explain what was going on.
She was in a daze last night and heard Li Jianjun screaming. When she woke up, she saw herself sitting in front of the dressing table combing her hair.
I didn't feel anything strange either.
"By the way, did Zhu Zihao really call you?" Li Xiaocui asked suddenly. Seeing that Wang Qi was sure, she took a piece of paper from the bedside, "Is it this number? This is the number I left before, Zhu Zihao's mobile phone
's number."
The paper pages are somewhat worn and have many creases.
It seems to have been stored somewhere for some time.
Wang Qi glanced at the number above, then took out his brick phone and looked at the caller ID.
"It's this number. Why do you still have Zhu Zihao's mobile phone number? Zhou Chengdu didn't keep it..."
Having said this, Wang Qi looked at Li Xiaocui and was suddenly startled.
Li Xiaocui sat down on the bedside again.
There was a bit of melancholy on his face, and he picked up a red comb in his hand at some point.
As if unconsciously, he used the comb to comb his hair.
Zhou Cheng finally felt uneasy and pushed the door open and walked in.
Before she spoke, she saw the red comb in Li Xiaocui's hand.
He exclaimed: "The comb! That burned comb..."
"ah!"
Li Xiaocui also woke up with a start, glanced at the comb in her hand, and hurriedly threw it on the ground.
This is the comb that was betrothal to Zhu Zihao!
Originally, Chen Xiangu had already burned the comb...
Why was it back in her hands again?
"Is this the comb?" Wang Qi picked up the comb. It was made of wood, bright red in color, and classical in shape.
Li Xiaocui's parents and Chen Xiangu, who were outside the door, heard what was going on in the house.
"Chen Xiangu is here, the evil spirits will not be rampant!"
I heard Chen Xiangu yell and rushed into the house first.
She glanced at the room, as if she saw something indescribable, turned her body slightly, and jumped there, waving her hands.
"Back! Back! Back!"
His mouth was cadenced and his face was full of seriousness.
