The days when I was forced to be a magic stick

The boy in the photo is about two or three years old, wearing overalls, with fair skin and naturally curly hair.Because of fear, he held the steel pipe on the wooden horse tightly with both hands, and looked at the camera blankly.

He had seen this face in the evening, it was the little boy in the car.

"Have you seen it? Where is Lele? Where is my son!" The woman grabbed Yan An's arm excitedly when she heard this, with such strength that even a man like Yan An felt a little pain.

Yan An was considerate of the mother's feelings and told her what he knew.

"He was still in the car when I got off, so I don't know where he got off later." It seems that he has nothing to do with the little girl. If he wants to know where Lele got off, Still have to ask the driver.

"Then what to do?" the woman asked.Mr. An also quietly pricked up his ears, wanting to know how Yan An would solve it.

"Look for the police." Yan An's answer was both natural and inexplicable. A child would know to call the police.

However, considering that this woman believed in feudal superstition, for the safety of the child, he still explained, "It is not easy for us to find that driver, and they have already left work now, so it will be much more convenient to hand over to the police." After all, he has privileges.

"Old brother, aren't you that or something?" Grandpa Yan said with gestures.

Mr. An glanced at Yan An and shook his head. Grandpa Yan remembered that he had said that something was wrong with his health, and fell silent again.

The woman also saw this scene, and her freshly dried eyes began to turn red.

"Did you call the police?"

"My name is Jiang Wenwen," the woman said. "I called the police when I found out that Lele was missing, but it has been five days now and there is no news from the police."

"Sister Jiang, don't worry, don't you have a clue now, you should inform the police quickly, I believe Lele will be found soon."

Yan An was relieved to see Sister Jiang on the phone. Fortunately, she was still willing to trust the police.

The police took action immediately after receiving the news, and began to contact the bus company to ask who were going to work today.

Yan An needed to identify today's driver, so he had to take a taxi with Jiang Wenwen to the police station.Because Mr. An and Grandpa Yan were getting old, Yan An asked them to stay at home and rest.

The police acted very quickly. It took more than 20 minutes to take a taxi to the county police station. When Yan An and the others arrived, the police had already sorted out the photos of the drivers who went to work today.Yan An had a good memory and recognized the one on the last train at a glance.

Everyone sat around the conference table, and the policeman surnamed Ma in charge made a phone call, and everyone couldn't help but breathe lightly.

The call was successfully connected. Captain Ma explained the purpose of his visit, and began to ask if the other party had noticed the two- or three-year-old child on the last bus.

However, the other party replied that the last class did not carry children.

This answer made everyone's hearts sink to the bottom of the valley.Captain Ma glanced at Yan An, and Yan An calmly said, "Think about it again, there is a little girl wearing earphones sitting next to him, do you have any impression?"

"The little girl with earphones? I know that. In the end, I paid for a car to send her back when she overtook her."

"What about the kid next to her?"

"There's no one sitting next to her."

Then no matter how much I asked, the other party still gave the same answer. There were no children on the last bus.

Captain Ma's expression darkened immediately, and he looked at Yan An suspiciously.

However, Yan An didn't notice that the man's affirmative answer echoed in his mind, his hands under the table gradually clenched, and he asked in a dry voice, "Do you have the contact information of that little girl?"

"That's true. It's not because I'm afraid that the girl will be unsafe at night, so let her go home to report that she's safe."

After getting the girl's number, Captain Ma made a call immediately without wasting any time.

There was a rhythmic beeping sound from the phone, and Jiang Wenwen squeezed his fingers nervously and apprehensively.

Closing his eyes, Yan An didn't look any further, he had already guessed the little girl's answer later.However, this guess made him panic.

"You mean there's no one sitting next to you, right?" Captain Ma repeated emphatically, staring straight at the person with his head buried.

After hanging up the phone, Captain Ma said to Yan An in a cold voice, "What else do you have to say now."

Yan An opened his mouth, but did not refute.In the eyes of Captain Ma, he was guilty of lying and being exposed. He immediately scolded angrily, "I understand your desire to help Ms. Jiang find the child, but can such clues be fabricated at will? It has something to do with One life!"

"I see." The child.Yan An whispered, looking a little dazed.He was sure he saw it, but the others insisted they hadn't, and they didn't have to lie.

It was already very late when we left the police station. Only a car drove by occasionally on the street. The two stood under the street light waiting for the car. Yan An was rarely silent.

"Please help me!" The woman knelt down in front of Yan An with a plop, her back straightened, and her face was full of reckless determination. "I believe you, you saw Lele!"

"Even if I saw it, what's the use?" Yan An turned his eyes away.He can't find people, let alone ghosts.

"Didn't you see Lele? Tell your fortune!"

Yan An choked, "No." Although Xu Linyuan said that his mouth was like a magic stick, he was not really a magic stick.

"Mr. An." Jiang Wenwen finally remembered Mr. An's words, "Yes, Mr. An must have a way!"

After personally experiencing things that cannot be explained by science, Yan An has no position to persuade women not to be superstitious, so the two returned to Yan's house again.Grandpa Yan didn't even sleep with Mr. An, and was waiting for them in the living room.

"What's the matter?" Hearing the movement, Grandpa Yan immediately stood up from the sofa. He was kind-hearted, especially since he was getting old, he was the last to see anything happen to the baby.

Yan An was still thinking about how to speak, but Jiang Wenwen had no scruples. He told Mr. An everything that happened at the police station just now, and emphasized what Yan An saw Lele, and then asked expectantly, "Can he help you?" Is it mine?" She still remembered what Mr. An said about her health.

Yan An who was mentioned was a little confused. Although he seems to be able to see things that others can't see, it doesn't mean he can use it!This kind of thing still needs to find a professional!

He looked at Mr. An tangled, hoping that it would not be so easy for him to tell Sister Jiang such mysterious things.But who would have thought that the other party would nod and admit it!

Admit it!

No, what about your dignity as a celestial master?Shouldn't you sneer at a layman like him who doesn't even know how to superficial. "Mr. An, I'm just a college student who is obsessed with studying, so I'm afraid I can't help you."

Mr. An did not answer directly, but said, "Metaphysics has existed since ancient times, and its content is all-encompassing, but it can be roughly divided into three categories, Feng Shui, Physiognomy, and Ghost Hunting, which are basically well-known. But from ancient times to the present, relying on these There are very few people who leave their names in history, do you know why?"

Yan An had a bad premonition in his heart.

"This industry relies on talent to make a living. People without talent can only learn superficially even if they are taught by famous teachers." Mr. An looked at Yan An after saying this, with gentle eyes, "You haven't touched these things but you can see Lele's soul , this situation is not common."

Yan An still wanted to save himself, "As you said, I have never been exposed to these before, so what if I have talent?"

Mr. An took a sip of tea, smiled and said nothing.

Instead, Jiang Wenwen was the first to react, "You won't, Mr. An will." She doesn't care about talent or not, she just wants to find her son.

"This..." Yan An frowned, hesitating, but seeing Sister Jiang's pleading eyes, he had no choice but to say, "I'll try." The magic stick is the magic stick, the most important thing is to save people.

Besides, what if it doesn't work.

The first thing Mr. An asked Yan An to do was summon the soul.

Mr. An's Taoist temple was chosen as the venue for the evocation of spirits. According to the instructions, tables and god statues were placed in five directions: east, south, west, north, and middle. The black cloth with talisman paper is used as the bridge of returning to the soul.

It was already midnight at this time, and the already quiet Taoist temple was even quieter.Mr. An, Grandpa Yan and Jiang Wenwen stood outside the venue, looking at Yan An, who looked cold in the center, with worry or expectation.

As for Yan An, standing behind the altar and looking at the things he had arranged with his own hands, his heart was complicated.However, at such a time, it was impossible for him to retreat, so he took a deep breath, lit incense, and worshiped the five gods.

After finishing this, he picked up another talisman paper and lit it, and said in his mouth, "I follow the official order to receive and guide the souls of the dead. It is about self-opening, there is a lock to release itself, and if you don't open it, you can't take it off. The divine rod will be cut off. "

The dim light of fire on the talisman shone on Yan An's face, and fell into the eyes of the three people, there was a shocking sense of solemnity.

Finally, the child's fetal hair is lit and stuffed into a bowl filled with rice, and the whole set of rituals is completed.

It was the first time Yan An did this kind of thing, so it was impossible not to be nervous. After the ceremony was completed, he carefully observed the changes in the venue.The surroundings were quiet, and after a while, a gust of wind suddenly blew up in the yard, and the black cloth used for Guihun Bridge was blown up and rolled like waves.

"Yes... Is my family Lele back?" Jiang Wenwen asked with a trembling voice.

Mr. An pressed the excited Jiang Wenwen, "An An, what did you see?"

Yan An looked at Hei Bu who had calmed down and remained unchanged, and shook his head.In this set of rituals, he should actually draw the burning talisman himself, but time is tight, and drawing talismans cannot be learned in a short time, so I used Mr. An's drawing in the past, maybe it is because of this that the evocation of the soul failed.

"I didn't see anything."

Jiang Wenwen almost collapsed and fainted when he heard the words, but Mr. An comforted him and said, "This is a good thing, it means that the child is still alive. You can see his soul, probably because he was overly frightened and suffered from the disease of leaving the soul."

Jiang Wenwen immediately said pleasantly, "Then what should we do now?"

"Find his body first, and then attract his soul." He walked over and patted Yan An's shoulder reassuringly, "Don't worry, it's much simpler."

Yan An: ...I'm afraid I'm on the road of no return.
