CHAPTER 1 - THAT I'VE BEEN THROUGH
A house where someone was violently killed was called the Evil House. Because a house where someone was violently killed was called the Evil House, a house where someone was violently killed was called the Evil House. If they were to live in such a house, their entire family would be in trouble, and most importantly, there would be a bloody disaster.
Here are the real news stories:
Report 1: A murder case occurred in our city. The newlywed couple moved into their new home and was found dead in their home the next day. The bride chopped the groom to death with a kitchen knife and then committed suicide.
Why did the two people who loved each other raise their swords against each other?
Report 2: A development company in my city has encountered a difficult situation. The newly developed building has an old house with no owner in the middle. When the machine approaches the old house, the fire goes out inexplicably.
Since the developers are making a lot of money, do you still dare to touch this old mansion?
Report 3: The real estate agent hires the operator at a high price, has no academic qualifications, no history of heart disease, no sexual experience.
Was this agency really recruiting people who sold their houses?
My name is Song Ran and the next thing I'm going to say is about the haunted house.
If I think about it carefully, when I first came into contact with the haunted house, I was only eight years old. The old house belonged to my father's unit, and I heard that there were quite a few students living here before.
This was originally a good thing, but unfortunately, something happened on the first night they stayed in the city.
I was very happy that day. I came and went to help carry my things. Because I was tired, I slept very early. In the middle of the night, I woke up in a daze.
I was hardly in the habit of waking up that night. I woke up strangely, perhaps for a few drinks at night, and went out of the room by myself, shuffling my slippers in the direction of the bathroom.
The building was very dilapidated, and the toilet and kitchen were both public. There weren't even any lights in the corridor, only a faint light that penetrated through the glass on the side of the building.
Cha cha-cha …
As I walked along the dark corridor, I heard a strange noise ahead of me. I couldn't help but slow down and wonder what it was.
I took a few more steps forward and caught a glimpse of a shadow in the communal kitchen.
He went back to sleep after going to the toilet. After sleeping for a while, he suddenly felt his whole body heating up, and after rolling a few times, he kicked the blanket away. He still couldn't do it, it got hotter and hotter, and it felt like he was surrounded by a ball of fire.
Father, mother.
I opened my eyes. At that time, my throat was really dry. I wanted to go out and drink some water, but the worn-out wooden door was actually unable to open. I shouted as much as I could, knocking my body against it but the door wouldn't open.
At that time, he was especially afraid. Through the gap in the door, he could actually hear the scream of a woman.
What should I do, what should I do? What happened? Why did I let out such a terrible cry? I was afraid, so I went under the bed and put my hands over my ears. The sound disappeared, and I looked out from under the bed and saw that it was very dark and there was nothing in the room.
Suddenly, a hand grabbed me from behind. I was desperately trying to crawl out. My body couldn't move at all. I couldn't make a sound even if I wanted to shout out loud.
At that time, I thought that I was doomed this time, so that thing grabbed me and pulled me backwards with all its might.
The next day when I woke up, I was actually on the bed, jumping off the bed. The door suddenly opened, last night's experience was just a nightmare, I didn't mention this matter, I simply ate a little breakfast and carried my school bag.
Because it was a junior high school, we had to go back to the back of the building where we lived. As we went upstairs, the fragrance of food drifted over.
A few women were enthusiastically cooking in the room, but there was no one at the innermost area. I stood at the side and looked in, and that was where the person I saw last night was standing. Although it was very dark at that time and I couldn't see that person's face, I still remember him very clearly.
When I was eating, I was absent-minded. When I was doing homework, I heard Mom and Dad tell me that the gas in the kitchen had broken down. It would be best if I told the unit about it, since there weren't enough people.
That night, I woke up for no apparent reason. I pushed open the door and walked out, and then I heard that strange scraping sound again. It was clearly the sound of a spoon rubbing against an iron pot.
The gas outlet was broken, so I peeked in. The kitchen was completely dark without any light.
I didn't dare to make a sound. I walked back to the toilet as if nothing had happened. That creepy sound was still there, Cha cha-cha, cha-cha, every time the sound transmitted came out, it sounded almost identical.
Back in my room, I curled up on my bed and trembled non-stop. I could smell a weird smell, and I thought that something had been burnt by the fire. There was a series of crackling sounds, and even the screams of men and women.
On the third day after we entered the building, I began to have a fever, which did not go back to forty degrees Celsius. The doctor also shook his head, saying that he would stay in the hospital for a few days to observe the situation, and if that really did not work out, he would transfer to another hospital.
I don't know what San Niu and mom said that day, but the next day, we moved to another house, and the fever mysteriously went back.
The fire had been started by a child about my age, a man who had secretly lit a cardboard box in the hallway with a lighter in the middle of the night. Luckily, he had discovered it early and had only burned some things.
As everyone was pointing their spears at the family of the children who had set the fire, the child said something, and the angry adults immediately ran away screaming as if they had seen a ghost.
The child said that he had been told to light the fire by a big brother with eyes and a long-haired sister, and that if he didn't, he would burn everyone here.
I went back with my mother to see if there was anything I could help her with. I was standing next to the child, so I clearly heard what he said.
I couldn't help but think of that shadow in the kitchen every night, and the most amazing thing was that the child turned and looked at me with that strange look in his eyes, and his mouth made a crackling sound, and I trembled with fear and pulled my mother back, because the sound was exactly the same as the one I had heard in my nightmares.
The news spread quickly. Before the rest of us came to live, the fire in the building had burned two students, a man and a woman. Coincidentally, the boy who had been burned had glasses, and the girl had long hair.
The second experience was renting a house.
After meeting Third Aunt, my mother took me to stay with my grandma for a while.
After a few months, my uncle came back with my pregnant aunt, and the room began to close up. My mother took me around looking for a house, one to make it easier for us to go to school, and two to make it cheap. There was a nearby room to rent, which was more suitable for me to look at, so I rented it.
This was an old house with a north and south layout. Although it was a bit shabby, it was already much bigger than the one they used to live in. The landlord said that the old couple who lived here had bought a house for their child, so they moved out.
The new house had furniture and appliances, almost all of them carrying their bags. My parents had something to do that night, so they told me not to open the door.
After finishing my homework, I went to the house to watch cartoons. As I looked at them, I suddenly felt that something was wrong. It was summer, and the room was exceptionally cold.
The doors and windows were all closed. I pulled a sheet over me, but it still wasn't working. When I was about to go out for a drink of hot water and push open the door to walk out, there was actually a light on in the other room.
The lights were on. Could it be that my parents had returned? I walked over and faintly heard voices coming from inside.
The voice was low and inaudible.
When I pushed the door open, the lights went out. There was no one in the room, just the old rocking chair that had been placed by the side. It was rocking back and forth in the darkness, creaking and creaking.
There was a knock on the door, and she went to open it. There were two strangers standing outside.
They were the people who used to live here, but they didn't think much of it when they said that they dropped something here. The two of them came in, walked around, and kept mumbling, Where did they put it? It's weird, weird, and then they left.
For several days in a row, every night was the same situation. When I told my mother about this, she began to doubt me and warned me not to lie to children.
The next night, my mother stayed at home. That knock on the door appeared again, and I ran over happily. When I said that, my mother thought I was lying. The door opened, but there was no one outside.
My parents were busy, and I was alone most of the time. That old couple came by almost every day, but I was used to it. I just didn't know what they were looking for until one day, I found a black-and-white photo in the cabinet.
I picked it up. It was the picture of the two people who came to look for things every night.
That night they came again, and I took out the picture, and they said it was this, and from the look on their faces it must have been important to them, but I was going to burn it to them.
At that time, they were too young to understand so much, so they burned the photos at the door. Since then, the two of them never appeared again.
This could be counted once, and the third time was even more bizarre.
Just like that, she stayed in that rented house for five years. At that time, she was going to middle school, and her mother started to buy a house again. At that time, the house wasn't considered expensive, so she bought it very quickly.
After we moved into the new house, Mom and Dad started arguing. At first, they were carrying me on their backs, but they just left it at that. They were arguing almost every day.
In my mind, my parents have always been very good, why living in the new house all changed.
Father learned how to drink, and when he had nothing to do, he went out to play mahjong with others. In the end, he developed into a gambler, and his family life became more and more difficult.
Because the unit was in a bad mood, father chose to get off work and buy everything out. The money I spent to buy everything out was still not enough to pay my debts.
I had a deep impression of her. Especially that especially terrifying sarcoma on her forehead, it was as if she had grown an extra eye. After listening to my mother explain what had happened at home, San Nu felt that something was wrong. She would not change her personality for no reason.
Third Grandma went back with us. The moment we entered the door, she took out an old rice bowl. This kind of rice bowl was very hard to find now. The rice bowl was filled with rice.
Third Aunt asked us to go out, what happened inside was not clear, my mother and I waited outside, and in the past hour, Third Aunt opened the door and let us in, and then rummaged under the bed for a lot of cards and mahjong, and told us to immediately find a copper pot and burn these things, and finally burn the paper money, and that was the end of it.
I remember when the third lady left, she said that someone had died in this house. He was a gambler, and he must have been forced into debt.
After that incident, dad stopped gambling, but his health was not as good as before, and his family owed me hundreds of thousands of dollars in debt. After graduating from high school, I went out to work, but
CHAPTER 2 - THE HOUSE IN QUESTION
Every time it was deep into the night, there would always be a person standing in front of the window in a daze, looking at the houses in the distance. There were lights on, dark on, and sometimes dark on and off, have you ever thought about the possibility that this house was not occupied by a person?
After leaving home, due to his lack of education, he had been a waiter and a security guard. Back then, he had wanted to earn more money and quickly repay the gambling debts that his father owed, so that no one would stop him during the new year. He didn't want to see his mother cry over this matter.
Due to greed, I was pulled into a distribution organization. Fortunately, I was reminded by a kind elder brother that I had a chance to jump out of the window of the restaurant's second-floor toilet and run away.
I remembered two names. The elder brother who helped me jump out of the fire pit is Zhang Bo, also from the northeast. I sincerely thank him from the bottom of my heart.
As for the guy who pulled me in, Li Erzhu, I met when I was a security guard. Our relationship was pretty good in private, we drank together and secretly watched a woman bathe.
After escaping, because I was afraid of being caught, I wandered around the train station for two days. There were a lot of people there, and there were also cops. After a few days of this, I only had a few dozen yuan left in my pocket.
Back then, he had thought about going back, but after coming out for a year, he hadn't been able to earn any money. Now that he had turned into such a state, it would be a joke if he went back.
When I was about to starve, I picked up a few newspapers from the trash can and accidentally found the recruitment information on them.
Recruitment: high salary, no qualifications, gender, good looks, no history of heart disease, no sexual experience.
The work was so meticulously prepared for me that I looked it up in the address above.
Hello, my name is Xiao Ran. I'm here to apply for the job.
I pushed the door open. There was only one person inside, and that was He Wei, the first person I knew in the company.
As I pushed the door open, he looked up at me with obvious panic in his eyes, and quickly tucked the papers he'd placed on the table into a blue leather wallet.
I stood there and didn't know what to say. He raised his head and smiled at me, He Wei, just call me Little Wei.
He Wei saw that the person was not bad, and at that moment, most of the nervousness in his heart vanished.
Brother Wei.
I politely greeted him.
Are you satisfied with all of the above conditions?
I'm not particularly handsome, at least not as handsome as I am, but as for the others, they fit me perfectly.
I nodded. He Wei opened the drawer and took out a piece of paper. There was an employment contract written on it. He couldn't believe it at all. This good thing happened way too quickly.
I took the pen and sat down to fill in the form. I could vaguely feel that He Wei had been sneaking glances at me. His eyes had a peculiar expression when I handed him the form.
Can you work today?
Yes, yes.
I quickly replied, then coughed and asked in a small voice, Can the company provide lodging and food?
Yes, of course. It just so happens that Uncle Zhang, who is on duty tonight, can't take care of his work. As for the food …
No problem, I'll settle it myself.
He Wei chuckled. Let's go. I'll bring you to get familiar with the company's business and see the world.
Sigh.
I got in the car and ran, and it stopped in front of a paper shop.
He Wei got off the car. I followed him inside and saw him skillfully stuffing something into the black bag. At that time, I was a little puzzled. A real estate agent must be here to help people buy and sell houses.
Brother Wei, shall we go to the grave?
After exiting the shop, I couldn't help but ask.
Don't ask, you'll know in a while.
When the car started, I slowly entered a small district. I sat in the car and looked outside, and felt that something was wrong.
We're here.
He Wei got out of the car with the black bag in his hand. I followed behind him, and when we went upstairs, my legs were a little unruly, so I could only brace myself and walk up.
Walking up to the fourth floor, there were two people standing by the door. They looked to be in their forties, a couple. They looked somewhat haggard. When the woman saw He Wei, she kept talking.
This was He Wei's customer, who had just bought this house. However, he had committed evil on the first day he had moved in.
Evil!
The woman nodded. Her dark circles were particularly deep and her hair was disheveled, making her look a little scary. The woman gave me a look before she started talking about the house.
At first, they thought it was left behind by the owner of the previous house, but they also didn't pay attention to it. They picked up the trash cans that had been thrown downstairs, bought some vegetables, opened the door, and something unbelievable happened. The things that had already been lost were left in the same place for several times, and when they got up the next day, they would put them in the same place, which was not the most frightening thing. On the second night after they threw their things out, strange footsteps started to appear in the house.
A toy that couldn't be thrown away! Strange footsteps in the middle of the night! As I stood there listening to the woman's story, I couldn't help but feel a chill run down my spine.
At that time, He Wei had patted his chest and promised that he would leave this matter to him. After this was done, he would call them and notify them. The couple was naturally happy.
Brother Wei, is it a ghost?
I looked at He Wei and whispered.
You think this house is full of people, kid?
It's good for you to get used to it. This is how we rely on for our meals, because good and evil are divided among people, and good and bad are among the good and bad."
At that moment, I stood at the door, my whole body feeling cold. My mind was filled with questions, I had just escaped from the distribution organization, why did it feel like I had entered a company that was even scarier than that one.
Come in.
Hearing He Wei's shout, I took a deep breath and walked in.
It was very tense, and just as I was walking in, there was a sudden gust of wind and the door slammed behind me.
Ah!
I cried out in fear. He Wei turned his head around while squatting on the ground and raised his finger, indicating me to be quiet.
I nodded my head and slowly walked forward. I watched as He Wei opened the black bag and arranged the items inside one by one.
Candle, tribute, paper money …
After a while, I finally understood why he chose to go to the shop that sold dead people on the way here. It turned out that he had already noticed that there was something strange about this house.
After setting everything in order, He Wei lit a candle and tied a red string around a stick. The three sticks of incense were wrapped in a circle and the end of the red string was pressed down with paper money.
After finishing all this, He Wei pointed at the copper basin placed in front of me. I understood what he meant. He wanted me to squat here and burn paper money.
He told me some rules. First, one must respect and respect ghosts, and one must never go to the grave to burn the newspapers, and one must not be disrespectful to ghosts, and sooner or later one must be unlucky. Second, one must not directly touch the burnt things, because they are used for burning in the underworld.
I just nodded symbolically and didn't fully understand what He Wei's intentions were. He put in the paper money one by one and was quickly engulfed in flames. Following the sound of footsteps, He Wei walked in.
I squatted there and waited, not knowing what He Wei was going in for.
There were no lights in the house, only dim light coming in through the windows. I looked up and saw the curtains shake a few times, which scared me so much that I closed my eyes and kept reading in my mind, Fellow ancestors, take the money and don't mess with me.
After the paper money was burnt, He Wei walked out. I noticed that he had something in his hand that looked similar to an ancient compass, but didn't look like it. It was because there was a mirror on top of it.
It's done burning?
I nodded. He Wei squatted down, touched the red rope wrapped around the incense and smiled. Don't worry, it's fine.
Brother Wei, what does the company actually do?
Mediator, help people sell their houses.
He kept looking into the house. I was scared, it was better when there was a fire in front, but now, I suddenly felt that the house was exceptionally cold.
Is this house really haunted?
Don't ask too much. If you want to earn big money, then stay. If you don't want to do it, then leave now.
I'm squatting there, not moving at all. Not to mention burning paper for someone, even if I had to carry a corpse, I'd still have to do it. Perhaps, He Wei is right, if I want to earn big money, there's definitely a risk. If all the money is blown by the wind, who would be willing to risk their lives for this.
The atmosphere was a little heavy. I coughed and asked, Brother Wei, how long have you been here?
More than a year.
Then, have you met with this sort of thing many times before?
I asked tentatively. I was curious, and I wanted to find out as soon as possible.
He Wei smiled and looked at the time. The sky had just turned dark when he said, Let's go out for a meal and come back in the evening.
After saying that, He Wei opened the door, and I had no choice but to follow him downstairs.
Coming out of the small area, there was a noodle house outside. He Wei asked for a few dishes and a bottle of white wine. He said he wanted to warm me up.
I don't know how to drink.
Drink, it's good for you.
After He Wei said that, he unscrewed the lid. I took a sip and felt a spicy sensation from my throat all the way down. It was quite strange. After drinking a few mouthfuls, my body wasn't cold anymore.
There were only the two of us in the noodle store. I raised my glass and said, Brother Wei, you have to cover me more from now on. I'm new here and don't understand the rules.
Don't worry, I will slowly tell you the rules. When I first came here, I was just like you, not knowing anything. Now, I have learnt everything.
Then how many people are there in our company?
Boss, Qiangzi, Liu Jing, Old Devil, including you, there's a total of six of me.
Old ghost?
I was stunned for a moment, but He Wei chuckled. This guy entered the company the earliest, and I rarely see him, so I gave him this nickname. It's okay, I came here to earn a lot of money. If not, who would come?
I nodded. What are the rules then?
He Wei put down his chopsticks, You saw the incense and paper money burning today, right?
He Wei looked at me and continued, "These are all essential. At the beginning, he was just like you, feeling that something was off, why do you need to prepare these things to sell your house? These are all unwritten rules in this industry, those who sell their houses are basically young people.
What's that?
He Wei chuckled, Actually, what I'm interested in is a young person who's very energetic. He's so old that he's completely unable to do our job. Even so, he definitely has a talisman on him. I'm just afraid that I might get entangled by the things inside.
After He Wei finished speaking, he took out something from his bosom. It was a talisman drawn in yellow paper, folded into a triangular shape. The talisman was wrapped in red silk.
Viagra, where did you get this? Get me one too.
I looked at him.
Don't be in such a hurry. After you finish this, just write the word 'birthday' to me. If there's a chance, find an expert and get one for you.
Thank you, Viagra.
Even if we're selling off the Ghost Hell Region, as long as we can make a lot of money, it's worth it. After eating, the two of us returned to the residential area, opened the door, and turned on the lights.
He Wei went straight to the candle placed at the entrance. I stood at the back and watched him squat on the ground, looking at the three sticks of incense that were almost burnt up. At that moment, I could clearly feel He Wei's sigh of relief.
He Wei coughed and pointed to the incense inside. Remember this. Incense burning is worthy of respect. Incense cannot penetrate the gates of Evil House. In our line of work, you can be greedy, but you can't not die. Life is not worth it.
CHAPTER 3 - GHOST FOOTPRINT
On the surface, this agency was helping people buy and sell houses, but there were too many houses in the market right now. If it was a good house, people wouldn't waste their money looking for help, these days, no one was stupid. According to He Wei, those who came to the agency either had problems with their houses or were in a hurry to make a move.
What does that have to do with Fragrance?
I still couldn't figure out the mystery behind this. He Wei looked at the time and then told me a story about what happened to him.
At that time, it was the old ghost who was bringing him, just in time for someone to sell the house. Although he did not understand it, he could tell with a glance that this was definitely a big deal, because the houses in that area were already expensive and the sellers were in a hurry to sell it, so the price was surprisingly low.
At that time, the old geezer had agreed to help contact the buyer for him. Coincidentally, it was the evening of the same day, and the seller had left.
At that time, the old ghost's face was cold, he could be greedy in this business, but he couldn't not be dead, or else he would lose his life if he lived. The old ghost taught He Wei these words, and now he passed them to me.
Why night?
I asked, puzzled.
In the daytime, there are some things you can't see clearly.
After He Wei said that, he signaled me not to interrupt him. I nodded and he continued with his story of coming to the company and the old ghost.
The place was easy to find, so the two of them sneaked in while no one was around. The house was a sunny room on the first or second floor, and the old man walked around the house, but one of the windows was open. There was no one around, so the two of them climbed in through the window.
He Wei was very nervous at the time and was afraid that someone would suddenly come in. Just like now, the old ghost placed his things and recited for a while. One of the incense sticks was broken, and then the old ghost's face changed and he quickly burned a handful of paper money. After the second stick of incense was gone, the old man turned around and ran without another word, jumping out of the window without stopping. That night, the old man returned and kept drinking, muttering, F * ck me, this is bad! If I lose three sticks of incense, then I'm dead!
After the old geezer consumed half a catty of white wine, he finally stopped trembling and spoke the truth.
That person was in a hurry to sell the house, and it was sold at a low price. There must be a problem with the house, so the old ghost wanted to take a look at it at night and see if the things inside were fierce or not, and if not, then he would find a way to resolve it. The incense stick was for the things inside, and one incense stick was broken, indicating that the things inside were fierce.
I secretly rejoiced that nothing had happened this time. Although I was afraid, I had a bit more confidence with He Wei here. In order to make the buyer feel relieved, He Wei meant that I must stay here for the night to see what is inside before thinking of a way to deal with it.
When he thought about staying in this haunted house for the night and how he was extremely unwilling to leave, He Wei did not seem to care at all.
I'll go in. According to He Wei's arrangement, the two of us will sleep in the same room. If we hear any sounds, we can't yell out.
I nodded and asked him what I should do if there were any ghosts. He Wei said that if there were any problems, I would look for him. He had talismans on him and had ways to deal with them. Pushing the door open, he touched the wall and quickly found the switch. With a click, the lights in the room lit up.
I stood in the doorway, and the first thing that caught my eye was not the bed but the toy on the windowsill, a windmill with a red ball that I used to play with as a child.
Although He Wei didn't care and the fragrance in the house was still there, I was still scared. Looking at the furnishings in the house, the toys on the windowsill, the curtains hanging on the window, even the photos on the table, I felt weird in every place and felt that something terrible could happen at any time.
He Wei had told him to lie on the bed and not move as much as he could. Only like this would the things inside come out and what to do when they come out. He didn't say anything.
Due to my nervousness, I didn't dare to take a deep breath. I thought that I definitely wouldn't be able to sleep, so after lying down for a while, my eyelids started to feel heavy. I tried my best to open my eyes a few times but eventually, I fell asleep.
When I fell asleep, I began to feel that something wasn't right. Because I was sleeping very lightly, there was a sound coming from beside my ear. It started to sound small, like the wind, like someone was blowing into my ear.
Slowly, the sounds got louder and louder. At first, it was the sound of the shoes rubbing against the ground, but soon it turned into a very concentrated sound. Dong dong dong dong.
They seemed to have spoken a little less. Other than that strange sound, there was clearly another sound. It sounded like the laughter of a child, mixed with a crisp sound.
I woke up and opened my eyes. The sound was still there, and I sat up abruptly. The light in my bedroom was on, and as I looked over, the windmill that was placed on the windowsill was slowly turning. There was a bell hanging on one side of the windmill.
The window was closed and there was no wind in the room. Looking at the spinning windmill, my heart tightened. No, I had to find He Wei.
I got out of bed and looked at the door, and my heart skipped a beat. If there was a ghost in the house, it wouldn't let me out.
What should he do? What do we do now?
My back chills. I can clearly feel something approaching. I let out a cry, grabbed it and pushed it down. Then, I rushed out.
Brother Wei.
As I rushed out, I shouted He Wei's name. At this moment, he had forgotten all of his warnings. It's impossible for a person to remain calm in this situation.
There was no response from the other room. I opened the door, and when I pressed the switch, there was no one in the room.
Where did He Wei go!?
This brat couldn't be afraid that he would run away first, right? I took out my cell phone. Luckily, I had asked for his number before, otherwise, it would have been really troublesome.
There was a ring, and I frowned. The sound came from the cabinet at the side, which was closed, so it wasn't too loud.
Could He Wei be hiding in the cabinet?
I fiercely opened the door and found that there was still no one inside. The entire cabinet was still empty except for a black suit hanging from it. When I opened it, the suit was still swinging back and forth.
The clothes were He Wei's. I touched it and the phone was really there. But where did he go?!
He Wei had said that once you entered the haunted house, especially that kind of place, you mustn't touch anything inside. You must bring food, drink, and be especially careful, otherwise it will bring you trouble.
He had been in the agency for so long that he must have known better than I why he hung his clothes in someone's closet.
I stretched out my arm to take off the shirt, then took out He Wei's phone from my pocket. The missed caller ID displayed my number, so there's no mistake, this phone belongs to He Wei.
As I pressed on the button, He Wei's cell phone suddenly opened. I was stunned. His cell phone was full of my photos. I quickly opened them. The background of the photos was unexpectedly this room.
I remember hearing people say that cameras can capture things that people can't see because people's eyes can only recognize a limited number of pixels. Many things are clearly in front of your eyes, but we can't see them.
He had bumped into a ghost! I grabbed He Wei's clothes and ran out. By the time I reached the door, the incense had already been extinguished. He Wei had said that this thing can't be extinguished.
I want to leave this damned house. Because of fear, my nerves were on the verge of collapse and my head was buzzing. If it wasn't for He Wei's reminder to not shout loudly, I would have shouted loudly already.
I reached the door, but the last door wouldn't open, and at that moment a hand fell on my shoulder.
Oh no, I've only heard about wolves hanging on one's shoulders. So it turns out that ghosts also like to play this game. Thinking about me, I haven't even touched the hands of eighteen women, and now I'm about to die inexplicably in this haunted house.
Patriarch Ghost, Grandpa Ghost, let me go, next time I don't dare disturb your rest, so I'll stay here for as long as I can. When I go out, I'll burn more paper money and burn a few beauties for you.
Brat, you're really cowardly.
I was so scared that my entire body was trembling. Cold sweat trickled down my face and my crotch felt moist. At this moment, He Wei's voice came from behind me.
I was stunned for a moment and turned around. It really was He Wei. He signaled me to be quiet before he grabbed two ashes from the basin on the floor. I copied him and grabbed two too.
Brother Wei, what do we do now?
Don't be afraid. Wait for daybreak.
He Wei opened the bedroom I stayed in last night, and I followed behind him. The moment the door opened, both of us were dumbfounded, as long as there was a spot of dust scattered on the ground, we could clearly see the rows of small footprints.
It's a ghost footprint.
He Wei frowned as he looked at the footprints. I've only heard about ghost bed and what kind of things these ghost footprints are.
He Wei told me to open all the windows, but I definitely didn't want to get close to the windows. It was easy for me to get into trouble, so when all the windows opened, there was a sudden gust of wind blowing in from outside.
He Wei said that the house that ghosts stayed in had a heavy yin aura, so, houses that had not been lived in for a long time, especially those that were very old, it was best not to go.
CHAPTER 4 - MISCHIEF
He Wei walked around inside and then the two of us came out. According to He Wei's intentions, we have to come back tonight and prepare some things. Last night, we were just exploring and wanted to see if the things inside would come to light.
He Wei spoke quite simply. It was actually the same as dealing with other people's belongings. Sometimes, you had to respect it enough to make it burn and dissipate its resentment, so it was fine.
From the looks of it, he couldn't do it at all. He could only use force.
During breakfast, my hands were still shaking. It was obvious that He Wei was calmer than me. I asked He Wei, where did he go last night? Why would you hang your clothes in someone's closet? In the end, they inexplicably came out from behind me?
He was actually testing me last night to see my guts. Because I'm a new person, I have to pass this trial, so I can be considered as not bad. Two candidates that came before me spoke big words, but when I heard that it was a ghost house, I was immediately scared away.
I really wanted to curse and almost died from fright, this fellow was actually testing me.
Brother Wei, what's in that house?
There's only the two of us in this porridge shop, but I still couldn't help but take a few more glances at the surroundings. This business doesn't seem like it will last long.
Like a dead child.
After He Wei said this, my expression changed. After all, a ghost isn't a human.
I asked He Wei how did he figure it out. Although I heard the laughter of the children that night, he had no experience in this aspect. In fact, he didn't want to believe it from the bottom of his heart.
He Wei smiled and told me a few things. The truth is very simple, the couple who moved in also said it, every night they would make a racket like a child running around, they definitely won't lie, to prove it, the most direct evidence that I stayed in that room that night and heard the sounds is that after scattering the ashes, the small footprints left in the room, normally I can't see them, but after sprinkling the ashes, it's different.
I nodded my head. After breakfast, He Wei drove me to another shop. This shop's scale was obviously much larger than the first one, and I could tell that He Wei was a frequent customer here. When we entered, there were many paper men of all sizes on both sides of the door.
He Wei chatted with the person in front for a while before he turned around and left. I was a little curious as to why he left without buying anything.
He Wei smiled. Because he was an old customer here, he was at ease. At that time, he said what he needed and left the address for it. After all, it wasn't convenient for us to bring these things with us.
This time, I didn't go directly to the house. Because it was daytime, I didn't dare to come out even if there was anything inside. When I came out, I opened all the windows, and the sunlight and air blew in, the little ghost definitely wouldn't be able to move at night.
There were a few elderly women sitting in the pavilion with a basket of vegetables on the floor. A few of them were chatting and laughing as they picked the dishes. As we walked over, they simultaneously looked up at us.
This kid had a sweet mouth and said that he was here to buy a house for the wedding. He talked all around and soon talked about the house in the same unit that we stayed in before. He Wei said that he saw some information about a house on the fourth floor that he wanted to sell.
You can't buy that house.
Thus, there is nothing in this world that women do not know. I will remember He Wei's move. I will definitely be able to use it in the future.
Auntie, don't scare me, that house is pretty cheap. I'm really tempted.
Lad, I only told you this when I see that you're not bad. Something happened at that family before.
Ah, what happened?
He Wei purposefully asked. This kid really did have his ways.
People have died before.
Right, someone has died before.
The other woman also added, in a very low voice, It looks very mysterious.
A child?
I couldn't hold it in and asked. When He Wei kicked me, I immediately realized that I had slipped up.
No, not a child.
Fortunately, nothing was exposed, the more talkative aunt looked in the direction of the unit and whispered, "This place used to be inhabited by three people, and they came together later on. That guy just got drunk all day and hit the woman when he came back, beat her up, and saw her a lot of times. Afterwards, when we didn't see him come out for a few days, the neighbors caught a whiff of the stench in the room and called the police.
It was complicated. We had only felt the presence of the child in the house the night before, and if there were two more adults who had died in the house, we wouldn't be able to handle it.
I secretly glanced at
