Urban Tales of Demons and Spirits

It feels weird.Mr. Wen's fingers were very slender and very cold. Although the touch was only once, it made me shiver uncontrollably.

"You said that night you dreamed about the noise in the coffin because there was something terrible coming out of that coffin, but your friend checked the coffin for several nights, but didn't see anything. Yes. A dream is a passage leading to another world. I am afraid that through that dream, you have entered the world on the other side. Of course you can see some weird things in that world. But your friends don’t know the same things. You must have seen it."

"Well, even if what you said is true." I bite the bullet and said, "Then why was everything fine before I came to Yancheng? In the past 18 years, I have neither encountered any ghost nor met What a strange thing to have been there."

"Even ghosts are divided into regions." Mr. Wen said calmly.

"Yes, is it?" I didn't know how to respond to him at all.

"Let's put it this way, the occurrence of supernatural events must have an opportunity that can cause this shore to collide with the other shore. This opportunity is 'belief'." Mr. Wen said leisurely, "'Believe exists', as I just said, Ghosts and gods are all created by human beings, if people do not believe in their existence, it is naturally difficult for them to cross the edge of the two worlds to make troubles."

"But Yancheng is different." Having said that, Mr. Wen showed a smile of unknown meaning, "Yancheng is a wonderful place, and almost everyone has left an organic part in their hearts for the creatures living in the cracks." Gap to take advantage of."

Mr. Wen's words made my heart tremble.This man seems to have a pair of eyes that can see through everything, but he doesn't say anything clearly, leaving me alone at a loss.

"Then...that is, what I saw in my dream yesterday, is it true?"

"It's true." Mr. Wen gave me an affirmative answer, "Seeing is believing, you have to believe your eyes."

"Then... aren't Shi Yitong and his grandfather in danger?" I stood up suddenly and asked anxiously like a cannonball, "Then why did the coffin be knocked in the middle of the night? Inside the coffin What exactly is that thing, could it be that Shi Yitong's grandfather was possessed by that thing?"

"Calm down, young people are easy to get angry." Mr. Wen squinted his eyes and waved his hands, "Since you have entered my shop, I will never let you go back empty-handed."

With that said, Mr. Wen stood up, walked into the back room, and came back not long after.

"When you go back, remember to do these few things. First, ask your friend to drag the coffin that made the strange noise out of the warehouse to the center of the yard, and open the coffin lid. Basking in a sunny place. Second, you and your friends are going to find eight people from the same village. These eight people must all be male, and they must be strong enough to lift heavy objects. Finally, you , take this."

I looked up and saw that Mr. Wen was holding two bells in his hand.It was a very old copper bell, strung together with a red cotton thread, and it would make a crisp sound when shaken a little.

"After the first two things are done, you and your friend will each hold a bell, stand on the highest beam of the house, and shake the bell vigorously. At this time, the body must face the home and the back to the outside. In this way gone."

"Is that all right?" I asked in disbelief.

"Yes, that's all right." Mr. Wen said flatly.

"Then... will this be able to get rid of the ghost in the coffin?"

"You'll know if you try it?" Mr. Wen raised his eyebrows.

"But, but..." I stood up and wanted to ask something more, but he interrupted me.

"Speaking of which, you have wasted a lot of time here." Mr. Wen looked at me calmly, and gestured with his chin to the cat who had been ignored since just now, "The owner of this little guy still doesn't know what? place to wait?"

ah.I suddenly remembered that before I came out to look for the cat, I asked Su Xiaoyun to wait there... It's over!Completely forget about it!I quickly hugged the little beast named Gulu in my arms, and thanked Mr. Wen hastily.

"Sorry, I'm leaving first!"

After finishing speaking, I didn't have time to ask any more questions, so I hurried to the door, if Su Xiaoyun was still waiting there after so long, it would be over.I almost ran out of the old house at a sprint speed of [-] meters, and the little beast obviously didn't like my "vehicle" very much. It kept meowing hostilely in my arms and stretched out its claws. Try to grab me.But I ran out of the old house before it succeeded, and stood in the waist-high weeds again.

I glanced back, and for a split second I thought the building was going to disappear the moment I stepped out, like in all ghost stories.However, this did not happen. When I looked back, the old house was still quietly sitting in place, out of place with the surroundings.

When I returned to the back gate of the school, Su Xiaoyun was no longer there.I can't tell whether it's a sigh of relief or a little bit of a heartache, but at least I don't have to face the girl's angry face.

I don't know what she thinks of me in her heart... she must be very angry now.Gulu let out a dissatisfied meow in my arms, and I rolled my eyes at it, "Yes... I know, I made your master run away in anger, but it's not my fault, right? You're the one running around All at once!"

Gulu jumped up with a "meow", and greeted my face with his paws.I let out a loud cry, picked up the fur on the back of its neck, pulled it up, and treated it like a human being, but the cat deftly avoided my attack and jumped towards me again.

"Gu Yu? What are you doing?"

Suddenly a familiar voice came from behind me. I turned around and saw that it was Shi Yitong, and Su Xiaoyun was still following him.

Wait, how come these two people are walking together after Kung Fu disappears for a while?

"Ah, Gulu!" Su Xiaotong exclaimed in surprise, and Gulu immediately ran towards her, purring contentedly. "You really scared me to death. Really, can you stop running around casually in the future? It's very dangerous."

Compared to this, I seem to be a little more dangerous with it!

"Gu Yu, why are you here?" Shi Yitong was still holding a cup of milk tea in his hand, and he sucked on the straw.

"I'm the one who wants to ask you this question?" I stretched out my hand to tidy up the messy hair scratched by the little beast and said helplessly, "And why are you with Su Xiaoyun?"

As soon as I finished speaking, Shi Yitong's eyes suddenly lit up.
