Chapter 20 Xiaobai

The landlord looked at me strangely: "Don't tell me, I actually met a little boy recently!"

"Is he four or five years old?" I asked.

The landlord looked surprised and asked, "How do you know?"

I sighed and said, "That little boy is lying on your neck!"

The landlord's face immediately changed: "How could this happen?"

"What's going on? Can you tell me something?" I asked.

The landlord sighed, then pointed to the empty hospital bed next to him and said: "The little boy's name was Lele. He used to live in this hospital bed. He died a few days ago. He had leukemia. He was a very smart child.

, I used to tease him because he was cute and give him good food to eat. Lele has no family and is an orphan. During this time, Lele has been calling me grandma. I also regard him as my grandson, but I didn’t expect Lele to grow up so quickly.

Let’s go!”

As the landlord spoke, his eyes began to moisten. It was obvious that the landlord still liked the boy named Lele.

I sighed and said, "Maybe Lele is reluctant to let you go, that's why her soul is still lying on your neck after death! People cannot be resurrected, so don't be too sad, auntie."

Lele, who was lying on the landlord's neck, suddenly became clear. I saw a sad expression on Lele's face. He just knew that he was dead!

I said to Lele: "Lele, you are dead, you can't stay here anymore! Go where you should go, and be reincarnated into a good family in your next life!"

But Lele still didn't respond. She lay on the landlord's neck, a fierce look suddenly appeared on her face, and she bared her fangs at me.

I was shocked. It stands to reason that Lele died of an incurable disease. Although it is regrettable, she was not wronged during her lifetime. But why does the soul become so cruel after death? Does Lele still have any unfulfilled wishes?

Is that why you don’t want to leave?

I sighed, and the landlord looked at me with an ugly face and asked, "What's wrong, Xiao Du?"

I shook my head and said, "Lele refuses to leave! I'm afraid there are some unfulfilled wishes!"

When the landlord heard this, he immediately became anxious. He held my hand tightly and asked, "Is there any way to drive him away, or ask a Taoist priest to take him in?"

My heart tightened slightly. The landlord’s reaction was a bit strange. The landlord said before that Lele always called her grandma before her death, and she also regarded Lele as her grandson. Although Lele’s soul is attached to the landlord, it is obvious that Lele did not harm the landlord.

, why is the landlord so anxious to kill everyone? It seems that the relationship between Lele and the landlord is not as simple as she said.

But I still nodded and promised the landlord to ask the old blind man to come over and think of a solution.

When the landlord saw that I agreed, the solemn expression on his face relaxed slightly.

Song Ying also frowned, but didn't say anything. Song Ying's origin has always been mysterious. I can't forget what happened in the elevator before, but I'm not sure whether Song Ying really has a problem.

I don’t know why. My eyes seem to be able to see some unclean things these days, such as Lele’s soul. This sudden change makes me a little worried. I don’t know whether this is a blessing or a curse for me.

.

The next day, Song Ying and I prepared to discharge the landlord's class. I consulted the landlord's attending doctor. The doctor said that the landlord's leg injury was not completely healed and it was best not to leave the hospital. However, the landlord was very firm and insisted on discharge.

After being discharged from the hospital, Song Ying also agreed. Although I felt something was wrong, I was an outsider after all, so I still respected their opinions.

After I was discharged from the hospital, I started trying to contact the old blind man, but I couldn't get in touch. I called Lu Jianhui, and Lu Jianhui also said that he didn't know where the old blind man had gone.

Just when I was at a loss what to do, I suddenly received a message from netizen Xiaobai. The message Xiaobai sent me was a limerick: The soul of the dead cries at night, it is difficult to redress grievances, it is pitiful, and you don’t know you are in danger.

On the ninth day of July, the soul returns to the west.

I immediately replied to Xiaobai with three questions, asking him what the hell he was doing?

A few minutes later, Xiaobai sent me an electronic location and asked me to meet him. I clicked on it and saw that Xiaobai's location was at a bathing center in the city.

I have some doubts. Although Xiaobai and I have known each other for a long time, we have only known each other online. I have no idea what this person does specifically. I didn’t expect that he would suddenly want to see me and send me such a strange thing.

, I hesitated whether to see him or not. Xiaobai sent me a message that said: If you want to die, come see me immediately!

No matter how I contacted him later, he never responded to my message. Xiaobai sent me a limerick. I thought about it for a long time, but I still didn’t quite understand it. However, it said that the soul will return to the west on the ninth day of July. Today is the seventh day of July, and there are three days left.

, depending on what Xiaobai means, the person he is talking about should be me.

After hesitating for a while, I decided to go see Xiaobai. According to the address Xiaobai sent me, I took a taxi and quickly arrived at the place. This was a relatively large bathing center in the city. I was wondering.

Why did Xiaobai choose this place to meet? Suddenly, two men in black suits and sunglasses walked over.

"Excuse me, is this Mr. Du Yu?"

I nodded in confusion: "Who are you?"

"Someone has been waiting for you for a long time, come with us!"

Two men in sunglasses led me into the bathing center, took the elevator and entered a private room, and then the two men in sunglasses left.

This is a private room in the bathing center. The fog is rising at the moment. In the middle of the room is a two-meter-square wooden pool. I see a man with his upper body naked, standing by the pool where the fog is rising. He is holding something like powder in his hand and pouring it into the pool.

Pour, as soon as the powder enters the pool water, the pool water seems to boil immediately.

Looking at his figure, I definitely don’t recognize this man.

I called out tentatively: "Are you Xiaobai?"

The guy said without looking back: 'Take off all your clothes quickly! I can't wait any longer!'

"Take off your clothes? Can't wait?" I was shocked.

"Let's go, I'm not the kind of person you think, okay? You're telling me that you're not my type either..." Xiaobai turned around and gave me an embarrassed look.

Only then did I see Xiaobai's appearance clearly. As expected, he was as fair and handsome as his name.

"What does the limerick you sent me mean?" I asked directly.

Xiaobai poured brown powder into the pool, tested the temperature of the water in the pool with his hands, and said, "I am also entrusted by others!"

"Who asked you to post it?" I asked in confusion.

Xiaobai smiled, then put down the box in his hand and walked towards me: "You know this person, Taoist Master Qingyun from Maoshan!"

"Taoist Master Qingyun?" I thought for a while to make sure I had never heard of this name.

"I don't know who Taoist Priest Qingyun is!"

"Why don't you recognize me? My master saved your life a few days ago, and you have forgotten my master so quickly?" Xiaobai frowned.

"Are you a master or an old blind man?" I asked in surprise.

"Although my master is blind, he can see clearly better than those of us with sound eyes. From now on, please call me Master Qingyun, and you cannot be disrespectful to my master." Xiaobai said.

I nodded, the old blind man saved my life, I still respect him in my heart.

Xiaobai continued: "My master has some things to deal with, so he asked me to come here for him. My master asked me to tell you that limerick. To be honest, I don't know what it means. To be honest, I don't know much about it, but I

Master said that your situation is very dangerous. If you don’t handle it well, your death will be on the ninth day of July!"

After Xiaobai finished speaking, he pointed to the pool and said, "Take off your clothes quickly and come in!"

"What are you going to do?" I still don't understand why Xiaobai asked me to take a shower?

Seeing my refusal, Xiaobai shook his head, picked up a bronze mirror from the table nearby, handed it to me, glanced at me indifferently and said, 'See for yourself!'

This bronze mirror is surrounded by Bagua patterns, which makes it look like a Taoist magic weapon.

I looked in the mirror. It didn't matter what I saw. The person in the mirror shocked me. The person in the mirror had a lifeless face and a dark complexion. He looked particularly scary.

I quickly pushed the mirror aside.

"Is this me?"

I can't believe how I became like this!

Xiaobai put away the mirror, looked as white as me, and then said: "It's not you, is it me? You are already haunted by evil spirits. I have poured hundreds of years of peach wood ash into the pool here. You can get rid of it by soaking in it for a while."

The death energy in you!"

"This is all the old blind man, isn't it? This is all arranged by Taoist Master Qingyun?" I asked. The old blind man actually knew that I had ghost energy without even meeting me. It seemed to be really powerful.

Xiaobai nodded and said: "Now you know how powerful my master is!"

I looked at the churning water in the pool and asked worriedly: "Is everything going to be okay if this continues?"

Xiaobai explained: 'Don't worry, don't look at the boiling water in the pool. In fact, the water temperature is not high. It's just that peach wood ash was added to lower the boiling point of the pool water!'

I nodded and took off my clothes. It was about my own life, so naturally I didn't dare to be careless, but I jumped out as soon as I got in.

I saw Xiaobai covering his mouth and laughing secretly.

I pointed angrily at Xiaobai and said angrily: 'Fuck you, you want to burn me to death!'

Xiaobai laughed for a while and then said: "Don't be so excited. The effect is best if the water temperature is high. I ask you, which is more important, your life or being burned?"

"Of course life is important!" I said.

"Then what are you waiting for? Come down quickly!" Xiaobai said.

Although what Xiaobai said makes sense, I still feel that I was deceived.

I gritted my teeth in the pool and felt that the water temperature here was definitely over 60 degrees. Although I couldn't get burned, my skin still hurt a lot.

The water in the pool kept churning, and after half an hour, the water in the pool had completely turned black.

Xiaobai stood in the pool and looked at the water in the pool, nodded, and then said: "It's almost done, you can come out!"

I crawled out of the pool, put on my clothes, picked up the bronze mirror and looked at myself. I was relieved when I saw that I was back to my original state in the mirror.
