I curled my lips and said nothing more.
But the dream just now still left me with lingering fears. Most importantly, I didn't know why the little boy appeared in the sewer, and what the black iron chain that imprisoned the boy's body and soul was.
I don't understand any of this.
Another thing is that the little boy actually said his name was Junjun. And Junjun was the son that the ghost girl Tongxue was looking for. Although I was shocked, I didn't dare to say anything.
The cell phone ringtone of "Men are just tired" is still ringing, it has been ringing more than three times, and I can sense a sense of urgency in the ringtone.
Then I answered the phone. A familiar male voice came from the other end of the phone, it was Ma Qiang.
"Brother Yang, please come and save me, I'm in trouble!"
Ma Qiang lowered his voice.
I couldn't help but frowned and comforted him on the phone: "Don't worry, just tell me slowly, what happened?"
Ma Qiang said in a low voice.
It turned out that he had not been looking for a job these two days, but had gone out to pick up girls. Picking up girls is fine, but Ma Qiang, that bastard, was blind and slept with someone else's wife, and was discovered by her. Now he was locked up, and the other party said that if Ma Qiang didn't pay one million, he would not be able to leave.
But Ma Qiang didn't have one million dollars, so the man detained Ma Qiang.
What scared Ma Qiang the most was that the woman’s husband hired a Taoist priest to torture Ma Qiang to death.
I cursed on the phone.
"Damn it, Ma Qiang, can't you let me be more careful? You're causing trouble for me. Do you know that I'm very busy recently!?"
"Yes, yes, yes... Brother Yang, I know I was wrong. But you can't just ignore me! Hurry up and save me. I heard from He Man that the Taoist priest is very strange, and he even raised a snake spirit that can speak human language! You have to come and save me!"
Ma Qiang's attitude of admitting his mistake was sincere.
I asked puzzledly, "Who is He Man you are talking about?"
Ma Qiang lowered his voice and explained: "It was that man's wife! She was the one who secretly sent the phone in, so I called you. I forgot my phone at home. Brother Yang, you have to come and save me quickly..."
Ma Qiang's nagging makes me feel irritated.
"Okay, I'll go save you! Now tell me, where are you?"
"Okay, okay, Brother Yang, please come here quickly. I'm scared to death!"
"Damn it, could you please stop talking so much? I asked you where you are."
"I'm in Villa No. 25 in Qinyuan New City!"
Ma Qiang lowered his voice and said, "Brother Yang, I'm going to hang up first. Someone is coming over here! Come and save me quickly!"
Having said this, Ma Qiang hung up the phone.
"No. 25 Qinyuan New City!"
I muttered to myself, thinking, that bastard Ma Qiang actually managed to marry a wealthy woman, he's really a pervert.
Seeing my stern expression, the ghost girl Tong Xue asked, "What's wrong?"
I sighed and said to Tong Xue, "My brother is in trouble, and he asked me to go and rescue him. Damn it, he is really looking for trouble! ... ... By the way, Sister Tong, come with me! There is something I want to tell you on the way!"
“I’m in a hurry now!”
"Something's going on? What's the matter?" the female ghost asked.
As I was getting dressed, I said, "It's about your son Junjun! Let's go, we'll talk on the way!"
Then I put the female ghost Tong Xue into the soul collecting bucket and left the apartment.
It was already past one in the morning, and there were not many cars on the street. Most households were asleep at this time.
Except for the street lights, everything was dark.
However, since it is in the city, Xiyuan Community is relatively close to the railway station, so there are still many drivers who drive at night.
Soon I got into a light green taxi.
The taxi driver was a long-haired young man who looked quite fashionable. He had a tattoo on his arm that looked like a snake or a dragon.
"Brother, where are you going?"
He turned around and looked at me with a smile and asked.
I said, "Please take me to Qinyuan New City. I have something urgent to do!"
The young man said cheerfully, "Okay!"
The taxi then drove towards Qinyuan New City.
However, Qinyuan New City is not close to my apartment and it may take more than an hour to drive there.
On the way, I secretly burned a silence charm on the back seat of the car, and the young driver didn't notice it. The silence charm was for the voices of me and the ghost girl, so the young driver couldn't hear us talking.
In this way, I started communicating with the female ghost Tong Xue.
"Tell me quickly, what do you know about my son Junjun?"
The female ghost Tong Xue asked me impatiently.
I told her everything I had dreamed about.
When she heard me say that her son Junjun's body and soul were bound by black iron chains, the ghost energy of Tong Xue in the soul-collecting bucket increased greatly, causing the soul-collecting bucket on my waist to vibrate "cracking".
The guy driving in front of me had actually noticed me when I was just talking without making any sound.
Now the soul-collecting bucket on my waist is shaking constantly, which makes it even more noticeable.
"Brother, what is that tube around your waist? Why is it moving by itself?"
The young man asked softly, his voice trembling.
I knew he might be thinking of something bad.
After all, whether it was my mouth not making any sound, or the soul-collecting bucket on my waist vibrating on its own, it was already very strange.
I hurriedly explained with a smile: "It's okay, it's okay... Just keep driving! It's okay, there's a little lizard I raised in the bamboo tube, and I don't know what's wrong with it recently. When it's free, the little thing always likes to run around in it!"
"Ah?... So that's how it is!"
The young man stammered. But my words did not convince him.
Through the rearview mirror, I noticed that the guy driving the taxi would look at me through the rearview mirror from time to time.
I noticed that his eyes looked strange.
I looked around and found nothing. But when I saw a corner of the peach wood sword sticking out of my bag, I was stunned.
I thought to myself, damn, the cloth bag is too small, this thing is sticking out.
I was wondering why the guy driving the car kept staring at the rearview mirror and looking at me. It turned out that he noticed the peach wood sword on me.
However, the young man driving the car didn't say a word. Instead, the speed of the taxi was obviously much faster than at the beginning.
Since he didn't ask, I didn't bother to explain.
I comforted the female ghost Tong Xue in the soul collecting barrel.
"Sister Tong, don't worry. I know you are eager to find your son Junjun, but it was just a dream after all. Dreams are all fake! Your son Junjun may be staying in a safe place. Don't worry, I will definitely help you find him..."
The ghost aura of the female ghost Tong Xue gradually weakened as I comforted her.
The soul-collecting barrel stopped vibrating.
But inside the soul collecting barrel, the ghost girl Tong Xue continued to cry. I thought the dream was a bit mysterious, and it was about Tong Xue's son, so I told her. I didn't expect her reaction to be so strong.
In that case, I won't tell her.
On the way, the female ghost Tong Xue didn't say anything, but just cried in the soul-collecting barrel, which made me feel a little uneasy.
Fortunately, she didn't fly out of the soul collecting barrel. With the ghost energy in her body, the soul collecting barrel couldn't hold her in. If she hadn't volunteered to enter the soul collecting barrel, I would have really caught her.
Fortunately, she didn't come out, otherwise, she would definitely cause trouble for me.
I don't know what the guy driving in front of me was thinking about, he didn't talk to me during the whole journey. But I found that the speed of the car was getting faster and faster, and I obviously found that his shoulders were shaking.
I subconsciously asked him, "Brother, are you okay?"
The young man tilted his head, his face full of anxiety, gave me an ugly smile, and said, "It's okay, it's okay!"
But I noticed that his lips were trembling when he spoke, and it seemed that he was really thinking about ghosts.
Yes, I was alone in a taxi in the middle of the night, carrying a peach wood sword in my bag and a cylinder hanging on my waist. The cylinder was shaking on its own. When I talked to the ghost girl Tong Xue, my mouth was dry and no sound could be made... ...
Putting these things together, it's easy to think that there's something strange about me.
The car was driving very fast. I originally thought it would take more than an hour, but I didn't expect that the taxi arrived on the streets of Qinyuan New City in just over forty minutes.
I don’t know what the young man driving the car was thinking. The car had already reached Qinyuan New City, but he was still driving forward.
They’ve all been opened!
"Hey! Buddy, I'm here, you can stop the car now!"
I gave a reminder.
The young man screamed "Ah" and stepped on the brakes. The speeding taxi stopped on the road with a "squeak".
Due to inertia, my body fell forward directly, and the peach wood sword, Bagua mirror and talismans in the cloth bag on my body were thrown out.
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry….”
The young man realized that he had parked the car too quickly, so he apologized to me repeatedly. But when he saw the items scattered out of my bag and looked at me, he was completely stunned.
I rubbed my bumped forehead and complained, "Do you know how to drive? You're driving so hard!"
What I didn't expect was that after the guy looked at me, he suddenly opened the car door. He didn't even want the car anymore and just ran away.
"Hello? Where are you going? I haven't given you the fare yet? Don't you want the car anymore?"
I shouted loudly.
But the young man didn't even look back and ran faster than a rabbit.
But when I turned sideways, I found that the ghost girl Tong Xue had already sat next to me. And the soul collecting bucket on my waist also opened automatically due to the inertia just now.
Imagine a taxi driver driving with a passenger in the car, and then suddenly there is another person in the car when he arrives at the destination. The extra person is a woman in a nightgown, covered in blood.
This is really a terrifying thing. I wondered why the guy ran so fast, it seems he was scared.
I said to the ghost in a somewhat annoyed tone, "Sister Tong, what are you doing out here? You are a ghost, not a human, and you just scared away the driver!"
But Tong Xue ignored me.
She pleaded with me eagerly, "Master Yang, Brother Yang, you must help me. I think your dream is not false, it is real! I can feel that my son Junjun is suffering. He needs me. I have to find him as soon as possible!..."
The ghost girl's eyes were filled with tears, and she looked very pitiful.
