Dreaming back to the Tang Dynasty, I was working as a detective in Chang'an

Fortunately it's summer, otherwise I would be frozen to death if I squatted here in the middle of the night.

The three of us came to a small alley not far from the gatehouse and hid ourselves under the shade of a tree. We stayed there for seven days without any results, let alone a female ghost, not even a ghost hair.

Everyone was inevitably a little disappointed. Only Laifu felt lucky that his nervous mood finally calmed down.

On the 11th day of guarding, the female ghost finally appeared!

Just at midnight, when we thought our wait was in vain, suddenly from a small alley opposite, a female ghost with white body and disheveled hair floated out slowly.

Yes, that’s right, it floated out! Her skirt was very long and trailed to the floor. I couldn't tell whether she had long legs or not. She came to the bottom of the gatehouse so lightly.

I was also a little nervous, because her long hair blocked her face, and her thin figure looked more like an evil ghost in hell. At this time, a gust of wind blew by, and it seemed like a gentle hand touched me gently, but it made me feel cold and a little creepy on the back of my neck.

I tried to stay calm because I didn’t want Laifu to look down on me. At this time, Laifu's little face turned pale, and he was trembling all over. He held the knife tightly with one hand, and grabbed my arm with the other hand. This can't be said to be grabbing, but pinching, it hurt. , this guy is really a coward.

I turned around and looked at the fat man, and found that his expression was very calm, and his left eye had not turned golden, so the female ghost in front of me was not a ghost, but just pretending to be a ghost.

Now I was so angry that I wanted to rush up immediately to see what the hell this woman was pretending to be.

As soon as I was about to stand up, I was pulled by the fat man. He shook his head at me and signaled not to act rashly and see what this female ghost was going to do.

I squatted down again.

At this time, I saw the female ghost sitting down on a stone pier under the gate tower. She stretched out her thin and pointed hands like ghost claws, gently touched the relief on the gate tower, and sang in a low voice. A sad song.

This song is intermittent, lingering and pathos. If it were sung in Zuichun Pavilion, people would definitely find it nice and emotional. But when it came out of the mouth of a female ghost in white clothes and floating around in the middle of the night, it became even more weird and terrifying. It was like a spiritual song in the Temple of Hell. The next second, she would be dragged into hell by her singing.

Then, she got up from the stone pier and began to float again. The skirts of her long skirt swayed lightly in the wind, and the white belt was like a soul-calling flag in hell. It was poignant and terrifying.

When Laifu heard this song, he was so scared that he collapsed on the ground. He covered his ears with his hands, with a look of pain on his face, as if he had been recited a curse, and his whole body started to tremble.

I was afraid that his behavior would alert him, so I pressed hard on his shoulder to signal him not to be so cowardly. The fat man also whispered in his ear that she was not a ghost at all, but a human being, so there was nothing to be afraid of!

After listening to the fat man's words, Laifu's face gradually became more humane.

The three of them calmed down again and wanted to see what new tricks this female ghost would play.

I saw her singing for a while, and then started mumbling to herself, as if she was talking to someone, and gesticulating with her hands from time to time, as if she was quarreling with someone. We were a little far away, so we couldn't hear her clearly. say what.

One moment she was crying, the next she was laughing like a lunatic.

We were sure that she was a human being, so we planned to catch her and ask her what she was trying to do with her pretense. Just as I was about to get up, the fat man stopped me again and said:

"Don't arrest someone so blatantly. I suspect she might have a hidden weapon or poisonous smoke on her. Didn't you hear that several nursing homes tried to catch her before, but they were all knocked unconscious by her?"

Fatty is still careful, and I also remembered those rumors. So we planned for three people to outflank her from different places, which was called surprise.

I gestured to Fatty and Laifu, and they understood. The fat man stayed where he was, while Laifu slipped out quietly from the upper alley. I went out from behind the alley, went around several alleys, and came to the place where the white ghost came out just now.

At this time we formed a triangular encirclement. When we were ready, I raised my right hand high and waved it down. This was the signal, and the three of us rushed towards the female ghost together.

All this happened so suddenly that the female ghost didn't react at all. We threw her to the ground and pinned her to the ground.

In fact, she is not a female ghost at all, but a very beautiful woman, but very thin.

We pulled her up from the ground. She was in a trance. She was a little confused about the sudden thing. Her long hair was dark, but her face was extremely white. It was the kind of unhealthy bluish white that gave people the feeling of being in a ghost world. A ghostly feeling.

Her arms were held behind our backs, and she couldn't get free no matter what. She kept saying, "Who are you, and why are you arresting me?"

"What are you doing? You are pretending to be a ghost here. One person was frightened to death by you, and the other one was frightened crazy. I want to ask you, what do you want to do?"

As I said that, I showed my badge. She took a look and knew our identities. She actually breathed out and said:

"I'm just a weak woman. I'm in a bad mood at night. Can't I come out and get some fresh air?"

"Don't you know the curfew? Some serious woman comes here to sing in the middle of the night and dresses like a ghost. You say you just came out to get some air. I'm afraid even a ghost wouldn't believe it, right?"

Now I know how she floated out. It turned out that there were two pulleys tied to the shoes under her feet, and she slipped out.

"You are Nezha. You came out on Hot Wheels. You are really a complete ghost in this suit."

The woman had calmed down by this time. She actually smiled and said:

"Young master, you are laughing. Since you have seen through my little trick, you don't have to hold me like this anymore. My arm hurts so much. Let me go. I am a weak woman and I have no strength." With such strength, he will definitely not run away.”

I think so. How could a weak woman turn against nature? So I let go of my hand, and then the fat man suddenly grabbed the woman's arm again, making her unable to move. He said:

"Brother Guo, why do you always have this bad habit of cherishing fragrance and pitying jade? What do you think she has up her sleeve?"

After hearing what the fat man said, I hurriedly turned over the woman's sleeves and found a small bamboo blowpipe inside.

I asked the fat man: "What is this thing for?"

The fat man said: "There is a sweat medicine hidden in it. As long as we blow out the medicine powder inside, we will be fascinated."

"Then why isn't she smitten?"

"She took the antidote in advance."

This can explain why others suddenly fell unconscious a few times when they were hunting ghosts. It turned out that they were all because of her.
