I went to Liu Shougui and he said that he would not care about our business anymore and would no longer care about it. No matter what happened to us, it had nothing to do with him. He said that he was moving away, going back to his home in Chixian, and would not stay here anymore, or going back to the columbarium.
Liu Shougui really moved away, and Liu Yang got angry at me, saying that I drove him away. I don't know what evil thing happened to Liu Yang, he behaved out of character.
I don't want to argue with Liu Yang, maybe things will be fine after a while.
I went home less often, and Li Xiaohuan didn't come to my office often. Every day I watched her put on makeup, and sometimes she would ask the restaurant to send me food and wine.
That night, I couldn't sleep and stood in front of the office window. I kept feeling uneasy about what was going to happen in the refining furnace.
I saw flames rising and burning the white cloth, but I didn't move. The security guard rushed out and wanted to save us, but I called him and told him not to worry.
The white cloth covering the furnace burned away, and the light from the refining furnace came out again, shining under the moonlight.
The refining furnace was actually glowing and there was fire inside. It seemed that the ghost had surrendered and was refining itself, and then a curse would appear.
I was sweating and there was no way I could stop it. It was really strange that this happened.
Three hours later, the light disappeared and I shook my head. It seemed that something was really about to happen.
In the morning, Li Xiaohuan brought breakfast.
"Go home and have a look if you are okay."
Li Xiaohuan didn't say anything extra.
After I had breakfast, Gao Hua and Zhang Wen came in.
"What's up with the stove?"
I told him about it, Gao Hua said.
"Be careful. I'm afraid there will be a curse. This kind of thing is very troublesome. It seems that Liu Shougui knows something. I think you should ask him."
I didn't say anything. Liu Shougui was already angry at the moment. Of course he would listen to Liu Yang's words. He would not believe what other people said.
Everyone knows that Liu Shougui has a strange temper.
The curse appeared. When I went to the bathroom, I saw a few words in the mirror.
"No one is dead in or out."
I don't know what it refers to. When the words disappeared, I was still staring at the mirror. What does it mean? Who does it refer to? Who will be cursed? I don't know.
I know it will happen.
I didn't leave the office that day. When I got home in the evening, Liu Yang actually took the child back to Liu Shougui's place. I was not angry. I guess that's how women are.
I sat at home for a while and then went out. Zhang Wen called me at the restaurant, so I went over and while we were chatting, I told him about the curse.
"Mingzhe, this won't work. The curse will always appear, which will cause trouble. How about this, you take me to He Dana's place, maybe I can find something."
I was stunned for a moment. Zhang Wen actually asked me to take him to He Dana's place. What did that mean? Zhang Wen was showing more and more strange things, which sometimes made me confused.
"Okay."
This matter has to be resolved. Since you asked me to take you, I'll go. After drinking, it was past eight o'clock when we arrived at He Dana's place. I turned on the lights and he sat in the yard and said.
"I want to go into that room."
He pointed to a room, which was room 18.
"No, you can't go into room 18. It's very dangerous."
"Maybe I can."
Zhang Wen stared at me. I didn’t know how the person who believed him could agree to it for some unknown reason, as if Zhang Wen had cast a spell on him.
Zhang Wen was standing in front of a house and I didn't go over.
He actually opened the door, looking very relaxed. I don't know what's in the room. It's not the two rooms I entered, but the sixth room. Why did he go into the sixth room? It seems that he knows what's in these rooms and specifically wants the sixth room.
Zhang Wen went in and didn't come out for a long time, so I went over to see what was going on.
I walked slowly and reached the door. Just as I was about to reach it, the door was closed and I couldn't see anything. The curtains in the room were drawn tightly and I couldn't see anything.
I screamed.
"Teacher Zhang, Teacher Zhang..."
"I'm fine, wait outside."
I went back and sat waiting, and it was midnight before Zhang Wen came out.
"you… "
"I'm reading a book, a diary, left by He Dana. It's something about Yin studies, about curses."
I stared at Zhang Wen in a daze.
"Some things you find strange are not actually strange. You will understand them in the future. You don't have to think too much. I understand that the ghost curse can be broken, but this is impossible. When the refining furnace is refining, put blood into the furnace, the blood of the dead. Just a little is enough, and the curse will be broken, and everything will be fine."
I don't know how Zhang Wen got into that room and how he saw the diary. When He Dana died, he said that no one except me could enter the Eighteenth Room. And your father Ke Zuo could have entered the room if he was alive. I didn't ask. Maybe it was a coincidence? Zhang Wen had never met He Dana.
Now it's time to continue with this curse.
The next day at work, I felt something strange in dressing room No. 3. The surveillance screen kept flashing, as if something was wrong. I asked the monitoring room and they said the same thing. They thought it was a machine malfunction. The inspector also checked and said everything was normal and there was no problem with the machinery.
I went to makeup room No. 3, and there was a male makeup artist who worked at another crematorium.
I went in and nothing happened, but there was a wave.
He Dana once told me that everyone has waves. The waves of the soul and the ghost are different. They will affect some signals. I didn’t feel it before, but today I felt it. The existence of that kind of wave means the existence of a great soul.
"Director Ke, is there anything wrong?"
"It's okay, come and take a look. If you need any help, stop and leave the dressing room immediately."
I said that and left, and the makeup artist looked at me blankly.
I told the monitoring room to keep an eye on dressing room No. 3, and then I went to dressing room No. 13 where Li Xiaohuan was putting on makeup.
"Master, don't come here if you have nothing to do. Someone is gossiping."
"I'm really sorry that Liu Yang hit you last time."
"I'm not angry, it's because she has lost confidence. If she hits me again, I will snatch you away."
After saying this, Li Xiaohuan covered her mouth and laughed.
"Okay, put on your makeup properly. If something happens later, don't get involved."
"oh."
I came out of dressing room No. 13 and started walking around.
By noon, the work in the dressing room was almost finished. Li Xiaohuan came out first. Ever since she learned how to do ghost makeup, she always finished it the fastest. She saw me standing in the yard, hesitated for a moment, and came over.
"master."
"Okay, clean up and go to the cafeteria to eat."
I didn't go to the cafeteria because I didn't want to eat.
Unexpectedly, when I was sitting in the garden behind the crematorium, screams broke out in the cafeteria and people ran out.
The director's voice changed when he called me.
I got up and walked towards the cafeteria. Maybe the curse had come out.
I entered the cafeteria and was stunned. The makeup artist from makeup room number three was lying on the ground, with his arms, legs, ears, and all body parts falling off one by one from the door to the inside. There was blood all over the floor. The director was standing on the table, his legs shaking.
I called 10, someone came, took a look, and said the person was dead.
This way of death just proves the curse that there is no such thing as death with an intact body.
So, there must be something wrong with this makeup artist. The ghost refined himself and did not reincarnate, so he disappeared. He wanted to create this curse, which is more severe than revenge with one's own life. If one's life is gone in this life, there can be another life, but if the soul is gone, it is the end. From now on, there will be no such person or soul.
It seems that this offense is not a light one.
The family members came, gathered the bodies together, put them in the freezer, and washed out the canteen.
These matters were handed over to the director. I asked the monitoring room to pull up all the videos from dressing room No. 3 for me. I sat there and watched. It was dark and Li Xiaohuan came in.
"Master, don't work all the time, take a break!"
Li Xiaohuan and I had dinner and I drank.
"Master, what happened today was so scary. I was so scared. That makeup artist was falling while walking..."
"Stop it, it's disgusting."
I finished the wine, took a look at the computer, stood up, stopped, and replayed.
"Xiao Huan, come and take a look."
That was the dead makeup artist in makeup room number three.
"See? His back is turned and he's holding a makeup knife."
"Yes, hold it in your left hand. Look behind you. Your hand is moving. It moves very quickly. It only takes a second."
"What was cut off?"
I watched it carefully and replayed it. If you look at the position and the action, it should be that position, that position of a man. What's the point of cutting that thing
I don’t know, and I don’t want to know. That thing is the most important thing for a man, and he is too brave.
I turned off my computer.
"Xiao Huan, be careful when you put on makeup next time. It won't be a good thing if you offend the dead by being careless."
Xiao Huan nodded, and Liu Yang came in and stood at the door. It took Li Xiaohuan and I a long time to realize what was going on.
"You're enjoying your drink?"
Li Xiaohuan was so frightened that he jumped up, hid behind me, and covered his face.
"Sister-in-law, we are really fine. I saw that the manager worked overtime too late and didn't eat, so I brought it up. He is the master, it is normal for him to serve tea and water, don't think too much."
"Besides serving tea and water, you also warm the bed, right?"
That's harsh.
"Liu Yang, please don't be unreasonable. What are you going to say?"
That day Liu Yang scolded us and left.
"Master, I'm sorry. It's all my fault."
"It's okay, I'm sick."
After I sent Li Xiaohuan home that day, I went to He Dana's place. After Liu Shougui moved out, I moved in. I sat there, looking at the moon outside. It seemed that something was wrong with all this, but I couldn't tell what it was.
At night, the light in a room came on and I was startled. It was the last room of eighteen rooms, Room eighteen.
The light suddenly came on, which means there is someone, or something else. What does this mean
I walked over slowly. To be honest, I was really scared. Who knows what it could be? Sometimes you can't imagine the weirdness of He Dana's Yin studies.
I slowly approached and looked through the window. I could smell a smell coming out. When I smelled it, I panicked and tried to hide, but it was too late. It was bone incense, something made from bone powder. I slowly fell down, with no strength in my body, and slowly lost consciousness. (To be continued)
