Sheng Tian, Jiang Zhai.
In the bedroom, Yang Qing was lying on the bed, his limbs were tightly bound with ropes. She was still in a coma, but in order to prevent waking up and hurting others, she had to come up with this bad strategy.
Jiang's father, Jiang's mother, and second uncle Qiqi stood by the bed, looking worried.
They didn't have the idea of sending Yang Qing to the doctor, and it seemed like an evil way, not to mention that as the Jiang family, they already knew what they should know and what they shouldn't know.
"When did you find out?" Dad Jiang asked.
"When I called her, I felt something was wrong. But from what she said, she had been eating for a day and a night. I think it should be yesterday morning..."
Uncle Jiang looked at his wife with sorrow in his eyes. The two have been married for decades, and their family has a big business. Although he has wandered outside, after all, he is a wife, so he still has feelings.
"Have you encountered any strange things before?"
"We had a quarrel, and she just went out to live. I haven't contacted her in the past few days. I really don't know."
"Oh, don't worry, wait until the children come."
Father Jiang had no choice but to pat his brother on the shoulder, repeatedly comforting him.
The news from Phoenix Mountain was received in the afternoon, and it would take more than three hours at the fastest. A few people sat in the bedroom, unconsciously, they saw Yang Qing move, and then slowly opened his eyes.
"Qingqing, how are you?" Uncle Jiang hurried forward.
"Are you okay? Do you remember what happened?" Jiang Ma also asked.
"Well… "
Yang Qing looked at his family, first in a daze for two seconds, and then, his eyes, which were still clear, began to loosen, and his facial muscles twisted into a ball again.
"I'm so hungry, let me go!"
"I want to eat! I'm so hungry!"
"Let go of me! Ah!"
She was like a fish struggling at the bottom of a dry river bed, desperately trying to break free, screaming like crazy. The three of them stared at the bed in dead silence, with horror on their faces.
After a while, it was still Jiang Ma who was decisive, found a towel and stuffed it into Yang Qing's mouth. Although the sound insulation of this building is good, it can't stand such a toss.
"..."
Seeing this, Uncle Jiang became even more sad, even a little sad.
"Boom!"
At this moment, the downstairs door was suddenly knocked open, and with the sound of chaotic footsteps, Xiao Jin's voice also came up: "How is my mother? Dad? Dad?"
As soon as the words fell, the girl rushed into the room, and when she saw her mother's state, she froze instantly.
"..."
She didn't rush over to cry, nor did she curse violently, she just stood there, then narrowed her eyes, revealing a faint coldness and murderous aura.
Even a bar of soap will have reverse scales!
And behind, those three people followed closely, Father Jiang was overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "Xiao Gu, I'm sorry to trouble you!"
"It should be!"
There was no time to exchange pleasantries, so Gu Yu and Xiao Zhai sat on the left and right respectively, each took one of Yang Qing's hands, and checked one after another. He carefully sent a stream of fresh air, and slowly walked through the opponent's body.
And as the clear air gradually deepened, he also felt more and more strange:
First of all, her body functions are fine, even after eating so much food, she doesn't feel any discomfort.
Second, her mental state...well, not bad, just too intense and confused, and very tired.
In the end, there is the biggest problem. Ordinary people couldn't see it, but he scanned it with his spiritual sense, only to find that Yang Qing's face was covered with a black-gray air mass.
This air mass seems to be alive, it has been integrated with the host, constantly consuming her vitality. There was no flaw in this fusion, and it went straight to the soul, so much so that he didn't dare to expel it easily, for fear of endangering Yang Qing.
"..."
After a while, he let go of his hand and looked at his girlfriend. Xiao Zhai nodded, apparently also found something unusual, and said, "Try the Quxie Pill?"
"good!"
After finishing speaking, Xiao Zhai took out the gourd, poured out a pill, and fed it to her. Gu Yu didn't stop, and quickly drained the water to help the medicine evaporate.
"ah… "
For a moment, Yang Qing's cheeks were flushed, his forehead was sweating, and he wanted to struggle instinctively, but Xiao Zhai held him down and couldn't move. Even as soon as she uttered half a syllable, her tongue was sealed and she just opened her mouth dryly.
After about twenty minutes, the air mass became stagnant and sluggish, and her state gradually stabilized, and finally fell into a deep sleep.
"Xiao, Xiao Gu, Xiao Zhai, what happened to her?"
Uncle Jiang had never met Gu Yu before, and he was still a little unfamiliar, so he stammered and asked.
"It's okay for now, let's go down and talk."
Ever since, a group of people rushed to the living room and took their seats.
The three elders looked at someone in unison. He organized his words and said, "Actually, it's not difficult to understand. To put it bluntly, Auntie may have evil in her body."
"Evil?"
Father Jiang was very surprised, and said: "But according to the current information, I haven't found such a thing yet!"
"Not finding it doesn't mean it didn't exist. You know, many of the changes brought about by the recovery of spiritual energy were brewed for a long time and then broke out suddenly. This is no exception." Gu Yu said.
"Second Aunt's spirit is very chaotic, as if there is another force interfering, we can't detect it. She is covered with a cloud of black energy, which is constantly consuming her vitality. We can only temporarily suppress it with pills." Fast way.
"Even you can't detect it?"
Father Jiang frowned slightly, and asked, "Is this evil thing very powerful? Is there anything you can do?"
"It's not great, but it's too unfamiliar, and we don't know how to start."
Gu Yu turned to Uncle Jiang again, and said: "Don't worry, usually this thing will not attach to a person for no reason, and the right medicine can only be prescribed after finding out the reason. Think about it carefully, has Auntie encountered any strange things before?"
"I really don't know... Huh?"
Uncle Jiang slapped his thigh violently, and said, "Whenever she's in a bad mood, she'll find her friends for a beauty treatment. I'll ask them first!"
Everyone was looking into the situation, and Long Qiu would interject from time to time, but the most silent one was Xiao Zao Zao. She sat next to her sister, not saying a word.
…
Late at night, near Lilac Lake.
It was past ten o'clock now, the street was empty, and the construction sites on both sides were surrounded by partitions, as quiet as a dead city. And suddenly, the sound of the car's engine came from a distance, followed by a flash of light.
When the car arrived here, it stopped at the side of the road for no reason, and a man and a woman got off, it was Gu Yu and Xiao Zhai.
"Is it here?"
"Well, the location is about the same."
The two of them didn't talk nonsense, each occupied one side of the road, and began to plow and search.
By the way, Uncle Jiang made several phone calls in circles, and finally got some clues: Yang Qing had a flat tire on this street two nights ago, and it took a lot of effort to drag him away.
Originally, Xiao Jin also wanted to come, but she was forced to stay at home, and Long Qiu was also there. She has a high skill and can cope with some accidents.
"Where was this place before?" Gu Yu asked casually.
"It used to be a piece of farmland, surrounded by villages. This place is too remote, and it was only included in the planning in the past two years, ready to be built and developed." Xiaozhai responded.
"No wonder, the most popular place won't appear again...Huh?"
He was fully enlightened, he was able to control every plant and tree, and soon felt abnormal. He took two steps forward to the left, bent down to pick up a particularly small fragment, and looked at it carefully.
It's an old stoneware material, which looks ordinary, but for some reason, it always feels unnatural. Immediately, he searched nearby and found a lot of fragments.
"Hey, look at this!"
He called his girlfriend, and Xiao Zhai came over to take a look, with a delicate expression, "I've seen this thing when I was a child."
"Where?"
"Songjianghe, there is a beggar in the town who holds this all day long."
Xiao Zhai took the fragments, put them together again, barely formed the shape of half a bowl, and said, "That's right, it's a rough clay bowl."
"There's a, uh, indescribable smell to it."
Gu Yu thought for a while, and said, "It seems to be related to its owner, maybe I can call it obsession?"
"Exactly! That makes sense." Xiao Zhai nodded.
In fact, the two of them had suspected for a long time that Yang Qing was a ghost, but they vaguely said something evil because of lack of evidence. But at this moment, in connection with the history and environment of Dingxiang Lake, a context was quickly sorted out.
The area around Lilac Lake has been a remote village since the late Qing Dynasty. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, there was no development, mainly arable land, supporting several villages.
Just one word, poor!
Lack of clothing and food, plague and disease, let alone. When a person dies and lies on the side of the road, he may not even have a relative to dig a grave. And decades later, when the real estate was newly built and the construction site was digging, the broken bowl might have been thrown out, and it happened to be hit by Yang Qing.
Of course, the origin is not important, what is important is that it is really a ghost!
Ghost, never seen before.
However, through previous investigations, this thing should belong to the soul energy, invisible, undetectable, and untouchable, and can only be felt with divine sense.
There are many folklore about the upper body of ghosts, but according to their observations, it is not ghosts attached to the body, but ghosts attached to human souls. Those who are possessed will often have their thinking disturbed, their energy will be exhausted very quickly, and they will show some kind of resentment of the deceased.
For example, hungry!
This thing is very tricky, and I dare not expel it by relying on the violent lightning and aura. If something happens, my aunt's soul will be damaged.
The two searched for a long time, but found nothing else, so they got into the car with the broken bowl, but didn't start.
"..."
There was inexplicable silence for a while, and Gu Yu suddenly smiled: "Oh, I always said before, why are there no ghosts? Now that ghosts really appear, I feel a little strange. Hey, it will be the Ghost Festival in a few days, could it be true? Want to go on a night tour of the Hundred Ghosts?"
"I was just thinking, since there are ghosts, is there an underworld? Is there reincarnation?" Xiao Zhai answered irrelevantly, also very strangely.
"..."
Then there was silence again.
Ghosts, for some people, do not represent fear, but a kind of hope. When you miss someone dearly, you don't pass up any chance to see them again.
"Okay, we will know how the situation is in due course, let's get this matter resolved first."
After a while, Gu Yu finally said: "With our means, I'm afraid we can't handle it properly, so we need to consult professionals."
"Agreed! When it comes to catching ghosts, Maoshan is the number one."
