The Haunted

It was only after Chi Yan sat in the car that he felt the cold seep out, and was slowly dispelled by the high temperature in July.

He covered his face with his hands, and let out a long breath. After a long while, he calmed down, put down his hands, and took out a very ordinary white business card from his pocket.

I just put it in my pocket yesterday, and I didn’t look carefully later, only to find that there is only a simple name "Tang Guangyuan" printed on it. In the eastern suburbs of Sumin City, there is no subway, but there are two buses to get there. He also has a vague impression.

Chi Yan put the business card back into his pocket, entered the address into the phone and started driving according to the route planned by the navigation.

In the past few years, Sumin City also engaged in urban construction, and the urban area has expanded a lot. Although it is not as good as the neighboring Shiming City, it is not what it used to be.When Chi Yan was a child, he lived with his grandparents in the old city, and he was not familiar with the new area. After driving for an hour and a half, he found the address on his business card—it was a newly built villa area in the past two years.

After Chi Yan registered at the gate, he drove around the complex for another 10 minutes before finding the building that was written on his business card. He stepped forward to ring the doorbell with some anxiety, but the person who opened the door was not the old man he met yesterday, but A woman in her 40s.

Chi Yan took out his business card and showed it to the other party: "I'm looking for Mr. Tang Guangyuan, the business card he gave me yesterday."

The woman nodded, let Chi Yan in, and said to the inside: "Mr. Tang, I'm your guest."

When Chi Yan entered the door, he saw the old man from yesterday sitting on the sofa, still wearing the same style of clothes, reading a newspaper with reading glasses on.After seeing Chi Yan coming in, he put down the newspaper and glasses, stood up and said with a smile, "I guessed you would come."

The two sat down, and when the woman made tea and served it, Mr. Tang turned his head and said to her, "Sister Gui, there's nothing else to do today, you should go back first. You don't need to come over tomorrow and Sunday."

Sister Gui responded, quickly packed her things and left.

Chi Yan looked around at the layout: "Do you live here?" He was very surprised that there was such an expert hidden in Su Min City, and he had never heard of it.

Tang Guangyuan waved his hand: "I was also entrusted to deal with a matter this time. My friend's house is not occupied all year round. He happened to lend me two days to live in. I didn't expect to meet you."

Chi Yan recalled the anxious look of the old man and the phrase "save people" yesterday, and asked, "Have you finished your work?"

Tang Guangyuan nodded: "I would also like to thank you, little brother, for your help. There is no danger."

It's fine if it's resolved, after all, it's nothing to do with him, so Chi Yan doesn't want to ask too much.He was full of thoughts, didn't know how to speak for a while, picked up the tea and took a sip silently, only then did he feel his throat dry and hot - just now he drove all the way here in a hurry, and couldn't even remember to take a sip of water when he had no time.

Tang Guangyuan took the initiative to ask: "I guessed right, little brother got my pure heart talisman yesterday, he should have seen through it before coming to me."

Chi Yan nodded, although he guessed that yesterday's sudden recovery of sanity must be due to this old gentleman, but now he realized that he had stuffed Zhang Qingxin Talisman into himself when he didn't know it.

Mr. Tang stretched out his hand and tapped the small porcelain vase on his chest: "Is that the ashes in this vase?"

Chi Yan nodded, and took off the porcelain bottle according to the other party's instructions.Tang Guangyuan took out two more talisman papers, wrapped the porcelain bottle inside and outside, and put it aside.

Taking advantage of this time, Chi Yan explained in detail how he had been physically weak since he was a child, Zhang Daochang suggested that he wear Ye Yingzhi's ashes on his body, and keep a memorial tablet at home.He is not stupid. No one noticed that he was obsessed with ghosts for so long before. Only the old man in front of him saw the clue. Based on years of experience, he can also see that this old Mr. Tang is a person with real skills, and now he can save himself. I am afraid it is only him.

Tang Guangyuan slapped his thigh heartbroken after hearing this: "Stupid! How can he teach someone such a method! He has only learned superficially, and he only knows one thing and doesn't know the other! If you want to know, he is born like a ghost. Prime Minister, if you wear his ashes by your side after death, and enshrine the tablet day and night, how can it not cause bad consequences?"

Daoist Liu of Xiqingshan also said similar things back then, but Chi Yan didn't believe it, and now it's too late to regret it.

Tang Guangyuan asked him: "What do you think now? What are you going to do?"

"What do you think..." Chi Yan smiled wryly, "Of course I want to send this one away, but I don't know what you can do about it."

Tang Guangyuan nodded, expressing his understanding.

Chi Yan hesitated for a moment, then added: "One more thing... I was the one who disturbed Mr. Ye's peace for my own selfishness. In the final analysis, it was my fault. Please don't hurt him, so I have to send him away. That's it."

Although he was entangled by ghosts and ghosts since he was a child, he didn't actually study the gods and ghosts in depth. Even the monks and priests he met since he was a child have different calibers.He didn't know what Ye Yingzhi was like, whether there was a soul after death, and whether there was reincarnation.It would be great if Ye Yingzhi could be saved from his death like the one shown on TV, and let him go back to where he should go, and return to his original track.

Tang Guangyuan didn't respond, but took out a talisman and a box of matches and handed them to Chi Yan: "After you go back, burn this talisman and dissolve it in water, and then try to lure that thing to drink."

People in the world are stupid, always fantasize about unrealistic things, and have self-righteous kindness in their hearts.Such evil spirits that can already be seen by ordinary people, and even take the initiative to confuse people, are beyond measure, and the only way is to let them completely disappear.It's just that there is no need to tell the young man in front of him about this point, it will only increase his annoyance, on the contrary, he may miss the matter, and harm himself by being soft for a while.

But Chi Yan was startled: "You mean... you want me to go back alone?"

Tang Guangyuan nodded: "If a stranger appears rashly, especially a person like me who is obviously different from ordinary people, it will arouse the vigilance of that thing. At that time, it will not be easy to convert the other party without thinking about it. "He has lived for most of his life and is well versed in the way of communication. At this time, he deliberately used misleading words to make the young man in front of him mistakenly think that if he feeds the other party to drink the talisman water, he can calm the thing down, otherwise he can only Use force to destroy the opponent.But I don't know that the result will be the same no matter what, and that thing will no longer exist.

As expected, Chi Yan's heart was shaken, and even his fear of going back to face Ye Yingzhi alone faded a little bit. Just as he gritted his teeth and was about to nod, Tang Guangyuan handed him two more talismans: "If things change, you You can also use these two talismans to escape."

Tang Guangyuan could see from the black air yesterday that the thing the young man provoked was not easy to deal with, and he didn't want to cause more trouble if he could.And the water of the "Suppressing Evil Talisman" will definitely not be able to bear it no matter what evil spirits and ghosts swallow it directly.

He took the small porcelain vase pendant out of the talisman paper package and handed it to Chi Yan: "It may be suspicious, so you should put it on first, and return it to his grave after the matter is resolved."

Chi Yan tightly squeezed the three talismans and the matches, put them in his pockets respectively, reluctantly thanked Mr. Tang with a smile, and then left.
