"It's not my family, it's me. Something happened to me." Meng Fan said emotionally: "I want to invite you out for a meal and let you know the cause of the disease. Please help me treat it, master."
I wondered: "Can't we say it on the phone?"
Meng Fan said anxiously: "I can't explain clearly. My language organization ability is limited and I can't explain the existence of this thing at all."
"What the hell, this thing? Did you hit a ghost?" I said in surprise.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu labor is worse than being hit by a ghost." Meng Fan wailed, "Do you know how I've been doing for the past half month?"
"I visited all the hospitals in Kyoto, and I received injections, medicine, and CT scans every day."
"My dad invited a bunch of Taoist monks to kill evil spirits for me, and the goddesses and magic sticks came to my house every day."
"One moment I was tied up and made to drink talisman water, and the next moment I was beaten with a peach tree branch, all over my head and face."
"It's a pity that I've lost more than 30 pounds in less than ten days. I'm covered in injuries and I would rather die than live."
Meng Fan complained to me: "The most painful thing is not these, but the thing on the back of my neck."
"No one can feel it or see it except me."
"But I swear to God, I swear to my happiness for the rest of my life, it really does exist."
I asked: "What is it? Be specific."
Meng Fan hesitated and said, "Do you believe what I say?"
I laughed, and then said with a serious face: "You believe the evil spirit in me, why don't I believe you?"
Meng Fan sighed and said: "The two are different and not the same concept."
"When the evil spirit in you is sick, others can see and feel its presence."
"No one can see that thing on the back of my neck. Except for my parents, no one believes what I say."
After a moment of pause, Meng Fan confessed: "It's a hand."
"What hand?" I asked confusedly: "You only have one hand left? Where is the other one?"
Meng Fan said sadly: "I mean there is a hand behind my neck."
"I'm going..." I took a deep breath, and my spirit became tense in an instant.
It was a clear day and the sun was shining outside. I was so shocked by Meng Fan's words that my hands and feet were cold.
A chill emanated from the bottom of my heart, my pores stood up, and I shivered uncontrollably.
"Do you believe it?" Meng Fan said solemnly: "At first, the back of my neck was itchy and there was a very small scar. I thought it was a mosquito bite and didn't take it seriously at all."
"But after three days, the scar disappeared, and the area became hot, as hot as fire, and it kept me awake at night."
"Early on the fourth day, I went to the hospital anxiously and had a full-body examination."
"The doctor told me that I am healthy and have nothing wrong with me."
"Especially on the neck, there is no foreign matter."
"Coincidentally, the burning sensation is indeed gone."
Meng Fan smiled bitterly and said, "But on the night I returned home, the burning sensation appeared again."
"This time, there was a lot of blood on the back of my neck, black blood."
"My parents were so scared that they sent me to the hospital crying."
"After that, I returned to Kyoto. After all, Jiangxia City is a bit small, the medical facilities there are too poor, and the level of doctors is limited."
I nodded while listening: "Then when did you discover that hand?"
"Five days ago." Meng Fan responded: "About one o'clock in the morning, I was sleeping soundly, and suddenly I felt something touching my face."
