"Master, wait a minute..."
It was a woman's voice.
When I turned around, I saw the two women and one man running towards Yuquan and me.
Yuquan looked at me and whispered, "Brother Yang, there is black air between the eyebrows of the two girls, which is obviously a sign of encountering a ghost. The fake Taoist priest Ma Chun they invited just now was exposed by you. I'm afraid that now they come to you to ask for your help."
I shrugged my shoulders helplessly and said, "Alas! I am a ghost-catching Taoist priest. Since they found me, I have to help them. Anyway, I need to accumulate good karma quickly."
The passages in the ghost market were still a bit narrow, and there were many people on the road. When the two women and one man squeezed through the crowd to come to me and the little monk Yuquan, they were already sweating profusely.
Seeing that we did not leave but stood there waiting for them, the girl with the little mouth showed a look of gratitude on her face.
The girl with the small mouth ran over and said with a smile: "Master, it's a good thing you heard my voice, otherwise, we really would have missed you. Thank you for what happened just now, otherwise, the three of us would have been deceived by that fake Taoist priest."
Although the timid girl on the side didn't say anything, her eyes were full of respect for Yuquan and me.
When I looked at the timid girl, she lowered her head, her face slightly red, and looked a little shy.
The boyfriend of the girl with a small mouth did not interrupt, but stood aside looking very obedient.
I glanced at the three of them and said, "Okay, no need to thank me. Tell me, is there anything else you need our help with?"
When the girl with the small mouth heard what I said, she quickly said, "Yes, yes, Master, we do need your help... No, it's not help, we will pay you."
Money? I don't lack it now.
I looked at the two girls and said bluntly, "Do you two want us to help you exorcise ghosts?"
The girl with a small mouth and the timid girl nodded at the same time.
Perhaps because she was afraid that I would not agree, the girl with the small mouth said quickly, "Master, don't worry, we will definitely not give you any less in terms of compensation. The previous Ma Chun said that he would charge 10,000 yuan to help us exorcise ghosts. However, he is a liar. And you are a real ghost-catching Taoist priest. We are willing to pay 30,000 yuan, please help us."
"Master, can you help us? The sisters in our dormitory are all scared by the ghost of the 'Ouija boarder'."
The ghost of the Ouija board? I've never heard of it.
I smiled, looked at the two girls, and shook my head.
Seeing me shaking my head, the girl's expression suddenly became unnatural. Tears appeared in her eyes.
She choked up and said, "Master, please help us, I beg you. If you don't help us, maybe everyone in our dormitory will be killed by the ghost of the 'Ouija'. Master..."
Seeing the little girl crying, I couldn't pretend anymore and said quickly, "No, no, no, I promised to help you. Don't cry, I hate to see girls cry."
The girl wiped the tears from her face and continued to sob, "Are you telling the truth? ... But you just shook your head."
I smiled and said, "Of course I have to shake my head. Because I decided to help you without expecting anything in return. I will help you completely for free."
After hearing what I said, the girl with a small mouth finally smiled.
That timid girl stands
He whispered at one side: "Master, thank you."
The young man standing aside thanked me with some joy, and said that after the ghost was driven out, he would definitely treat us to dinner at the biggest restaurant in the city.
Before I could say anything, Yuquan, who was standing next to me, agreed with a smile. He is really a big foodie.
"Okay, it's not convenient to talk here. Let's wait until I finish shopping and then talk outside."
"Okay, okay, Master, we will all listen to you."
Afterwards, Yuquan and I walked in the ghost market for a few minutes and then entered a shop.
In that shop, I bought some yellow paper of fairly good quality and a peach wood sword that had not yet been consecrated. As for the other things, I already had them in my cloth bag, so I didn't buy any.
After buying things, I took Yuquan and others out of the ghost market.
Outside the ghost market, the two women and one man briefly introduced themselves.
The girl with the small mouth is Lin Hongyu. The timid girl is Zhao Ping. They are both students of Fanghua Women's University, majoring in media, and are freshmen this year.
As for the young man, his name is Huo Ziyang. He is Lin Hongyu's boyfriend and also studies at a famous university in the city.
After they finished introducing themselves, I called the girl with the small mouth, Lin Hongyu, to my side.
"Miss Lin, can you please tell me what happened first? Since we want to catch ghosts, I have to first understand what happened to you!"
"Okay, okay! Brother Yang, I'll tell you everything about us."
Then Lin Hongyu began to speak.
Here’s what’s going on:
Lin Hongyu and Zhao Ping were roommates in the same dormitory. There were six students in their dormitory, all from the same class of the Media Department. They were all close friends.
The incident happened one night a week ago. Six girls who had just returned to the dormitory building after self-study were bored after returning to the dormitory. Then, at the suggestion of one of the girls named Chen Xiaozhi, the six people gathered around a small table and played the game of summoning the "Ouija board".
The game of "inviting the spirit" is very popular in colleges and universities. Many people have played it. Some say it works, while others say it doesn't. In short, this game itself carries a mysterious color.
The plates and drawings used to summon the "Ouija board" were all sold online. The plates are white and need to be turned upside down when summoning the "Ouija board". The drawings are filled with dense, tiny characters arranged in a circle.
When it was almost midnight, they locked the door of the dormitory, turned off the lights, and sat around a small round table, ready to start summoning the "Ouija board".
There were candles placed next to the table, with dim light.
It was the first time for several people to play this game, so they all seemed a little excited and nervous. The timid girl Zhao Ping was not going to play this game with them, but after being urged by the other girls, she joined in.
When it was midnight, several people put their hands on the white porcelain plate with a red arrow. Then they all closed their eyes and silently chanted "Ouija, Ouija, please come out..."
Lin Hongyu didn’t know how the other five people felt, but she was very clear about her own feelings.
When the six girls in their dormitory chanted "Ouija board, Ouija board, please come out" for the tenth time, Lin Hongyu clearly felt the porcelain plate upside down on the drawing move.
Although it was just a slight movement, Lin Hongyu's heart still skipped a beat. Then the excitement in her heart surged from the bottom of her heart to the top of her head, making her feel excited all over and her blood boiling.
The others also felt the movement of the porcelain plate, so they all stopped talking at the same time.
Slowly, the six of them opened their eyes, and each had a different expression on their face.
Finally, it was the bold girl named Chen Xiaozhi who spoke first, whispering to the others: "Master Ouija, he may have arrived, so let's ask questions. Remember, when asking questions, everyone must close their eyes, and after asking a question, you need to wait three seconds before you can open your eyes."
Everyone listened to Chen Xiaozhi's words and nodded.
Afterwards, after arranging the order of asking questions, several people closed their eyes.
The person who asked the first question was Chen Xiaozhi. She asked, "Master Diexian, are you here?"
Everyone with their eyes closed could feel the disc moving, but it was very slow, and they could also hear the sound of the disc rubbing against the paper. That sound was a "sizzling" sound.
Lin Hongyu was extremely nervous, as she knew that the Ouija board was most likely really invited.
Three seconds later, several girls opened their eyes.
They were surprised to find that the red arrow on the small disk actually pointed to a word, "yes". When they saw the word "yes", they looked at each other for a long time, and finally the girl named Ma Ying said: "The Ouija board fairy is really here. She answered Xiaozhi's question!"
Several girls nodded, their excitement evident on their faces.
Later, at the urging of Chen Xiaozhi, several people closed their eyes again and began the second questioning.
What needs to be noted here is that from the beginning to the end of inviting the "Ouija Board", your fingers cannot be removed from the white porcelain plate.
The person who asked the second question was Yao Nana.
Yao Nana asked a very direct question. She asked the Ouija board, "Master Ouija board, can you tell me what my future boyfriend's last name is?"
After a moment, the porcelain plate moved again, and the "sizzling" sound seemed to become much duller.
Three seconds later, several people opened their eyes.
Yao Nana, somewhat anxious, hurriedly looked at the location indicated by the porcelain plate. There was a word written on it, "Li".
Yao Nana said excitedly, "See? The Ouija board told me that my future boyfriend's surname is Li."
The other girls nodded, their faces full of anticipation.
Next came the third, fourth, fifth, and sixth.
The third one was Zhang Dinglan, and the question she asked was: Master Ouija, will I become rich in the future
The answer given to her by the Ouija board was: No.
This made Zhang Dinglan very angry.
The fourth one was Lin Hongyu, and the question she asked was: Can you tell me whether my boyfriend Huo Ziyang loves me
The answer given to her by the Ouija board was: No.
Lin Hongyu was a little bit unconvinced when she learned the answer. But she didn't say anything. She was going to ask the Ouija board questions again in the next round.
The fifth one was Zhao Ping, and the question she asked was: My mother is sick, Master Ouija, will she get better
The answer given to her by the Ouija board was: No.
It means "No."
After getting this answer, Zhao Ping felt a little depressed.
The sixth and last person was Ma Ying. She asked a very bold question. She asked the Ouija board: Master Ouija board, if I fall in love with someone I shouldn’t love, can you tell me, will there be a future between us
