Chapter 84 The hardest thing to guess is the human heart
When Gu Yuxin gradually walked away and finally could no longer see her figure, I finally felt relieved.
Just after Gu Yuxin left, the black shadow on the wall also moved quickly and fled into the distance.
I was shocked and thought that I couldn't let it go so easily. It must have something to do with the female ghost in red.
Then I sped up and chased the black shadow.
But the speed of the black shadow was too fast, and it kept changing directions. I was really unable to do what I wanted. Soon all my strength was exhausted and I could no longer run.
I held on to the telephone pole on the side of the road and gasped for air, wondering if the thing I had been chasing was a ghost. I felt more like a monkey!
I really couldn't catch him, and I didn't plan to chase him. I was almost rested, so I walked back.
Taoist Master Sanlong is still at Chen Ya's house, and he was injured, so I have always been worried about him.
But even though I thought so, when I returned to Chen Ya's house and saw Taoist Master Sanlong, I realized that my thoughts were redundant.
"Dongfang, you're back! I bought some late-night snacks, so hurry up and eat some with me!"
After returning to Chen Ya's home, I saw a scene that stunned me. Taoist priest Sanlong was sitting on a chair with his upper body naked, and kept taking food into his mouth.
And his wounds have been bandaged.
"Taoist Priest Sanlong, you..." I looked at Taoist Priest Sanlong and was so shocked that I could hardly speak.
"Well, you went out to look for clues. I was bored alone. Plus, it was late at night and I was also hungry, so I went out to buy some late-night snacks." Taoist Master Sanlong put down what he was holding, a little nervous.
Said sheepishly.
"Is your injury healed?"
"It's okay. I've already washed it with glutinous rice and mugwort. It won't be any serious problem. But I need to take good care of myself for a few days." Taoist Master Sanlong wiped his mouth and said to me.
I looked at Taoist Master Sanlong speechlessly, thinking that both he and Ye Yiming were my grandfather's senior brothers. How could there be such a big difference?
Although Ye Yiming has a baby face, he feels gentle and reserved; as for Taoist Master Sanlong? He is bold and carefree.
"By the way, where is the female ghost in red?" I asked.
"I've already sent him away!" Sanlong put down the food in his hands and looked at me.
"I haven't asked you yet? I suspect there is another ghost nearby. I asked you to go out and chase it. Have you found anything?"
"No." I shook my head helplessly.
Then I told Taoist Master Sanlong everything I had experienced since I went out, including my encounter with Gu Yuxin and chasing the black shadow.
"You mean you met a Yang person and got to know you?" After listening to what I said, Taoist Master Sanlong frowned and asked me suspiciously.
"That's right! We are classmates in junior high school, and we haven't seen each other for several years. I just met her not long ago. I didn't expect to meet her again soon!"
Taoist Master Sanlong nodded silently, thought for a long time, and then asked, "Does this mean that you and your classmate Gu Yuxin are actually not familiar with each other?"
I was stunned, Taoist Master Sanlong's attitude gradually gave me a bad feeling.
"Priest Sanlong, you don't suspect that Gu Yuxin is a ghost, do you?" I asked in surprise.
Taoist Master Sanlong shook his head, "I'm just a little suspicious. After all, you went out to chase the companion of the female ghost in red, but you unexpectedly met your old classmate. Isn't this too much of a coincidence? But that female classmate of yours
I have never met her and know very little about her personality, so this is just my speculation."
"Impossible!" I said firmly, "Gu Yuxin can't be a ghost. I was very close to her before. I couldn't feel any yin energy or death energy from her at all. And I didn't feel it at the time.
It’s not that I really found nothing, I also found that black shadow, shouldn’t you be more suspicious of the black shadow?”
"Dongfang!" Taoist Master Sanlong rubbed his forehead and said helplessly, "I didn't say there must be something wrong with that Gu Yuxin, but I think this matter is a bit strange."
I also know that Master Sanlong is just trying to show his support, but I really can’t accept the fact that Gu Yuxin is a ghost!
Seeing that I was silent, Taoist Master Sanlong patted my shoulder gently, "Dongfang, there is one thing you have to understand and keep in mind at all times, that is, the human heart is sometimes more terrifying than ghosts!
To be honest, do you really know the Gu Yuxin you mentioned? People change. Do you know what Gu Yuxin has experienced in the past few years? Is she still the same as you remember her?
Do you all understand?" Taoist Master Sanlong's tone was calm, but his calm tone revealed an irresistible majesty.
Taoist Master Sanlong's words were like a basin of cold water poured on my head, and all my enthusiasm was extinguished at once.
He is right. Do I really understand Gu Yuxin?
I was a little confused for a while.
Taoist Master Sanlong looked at my disappointed look and sighed softly, "You don't think so much anymore. Maybe I am really paranoid."
Then Taoist Master Sanlong changed the subject, "Forget it! I'm injured now and have to recuperate for a few days. Please take me to your home! Your grandfather and I haven't seen each other for many years."
I opened my eyes wide and looked at Taoist Master Sanlong, "Didn't you say that it is better to miss each other than to meet each other?"
Taoist Master Sanlong rolled his eyes at me, "I'm like this now, and I still miss it so much! I was scratched by the female ghost in red. She is a very powerful ghost, although I have dealt with it briefly.
But if you are not careful, it will still be very dangerous."
Since Taoist Priest Sanlong doesn't mind, I have nothing to say.
But although the decision was made, we did not leave immediately.
On the one hand, it's because it's getting late now, and on the other hand, it's because this is Chen Ya's home, and she asked us to catch ghosts. Now that the ghosts have been taken care of, we have to explain the rest of the matter!"
We stayed at Chen Ya's house until the next morning, when Chen Ya came back with Chen Chen.
Mother and daughter Chen Ya expressed their gratitude to us. They originally wanted to keep us here and treat us to a meal, but Taoist Master Sanlong and I declined.
In addition, in the morning, Gu Yuxin sent me a WeChat message, asking me what happened yesterday?
I definitely couldn't tell her that I was actually hunting ghosts last night. If I scared her, it would be troublesome.
So I just made up a random reason to fool her.
When I first met Gu Yuxin, she gave me a sense of strangeness. After Master Sanlong said those words to me last night, this feeling became even stronger.
