Relocation Brigade

"My wife and I have a regular schedule. We go to bed at about 10:30 every night, and it was the same last night."

"Because my wife was frightened in the morning, she was out of her mind and trembling all day long, and didn't dare to turn off the lights when she went to sleep at night." Yuan Yongxiang pinched his fingers, with obvious fear on his face, "It's about eleven o'clock, it's almost ten o'clock. At two o'clock, my wife said she wanted to drink water, and I went downstairs with her to pour a glass of water. When I reached the corridor on the second floor, my wife stopped suddenly, and she said she heard a creaking sound, so Like the sound of the legs of a rocking chair crushing the floor."

"Do you have it at home?" Chen Ling asked.

"Yes." Yuan Yongxiang said, "My mother liked to lie on the remote chair and look at the scenery outside through the floor-to-ceiling windows."

He hung his head, restless, and wanted to smoke again.

Chen Ling noticed it, and said in a low voice, "Smoking, it's okay."

Yuan Yongxiang said thank you politely, lit a cigarette and took a puff. The smell of the cigarette soothed his heart, "I actually heard it at the time, but I didn't think about it so much, thinking it was the sound from outside. Listen It was only after my wife told me that it was confirmed that the voice really seemed to be coming from the first floor."

"Mr. Chen, I'm not afraid of your jokes. I was also a little scared at the time. Let my wife stay where I am, and I will go downstairs to check..."

There are lights around Yuan's villa on weekdays, but that night, Yuan Yongxiang felt that it was very dark outside the window, and the faint moonlight came in, drawing a vague outline of a chair on the ground.

Yuan Yongxiang remembered that as he slowly approached, the creaking sound became louder and louder.

When he walked around the Roman columns in the living room and came to the floor-to-ceiling windows, the rocking chair was shaking violently back and forth, as if someone was sitting on it.

Crunch, crunch, every blow hit his heart.

He even felt that he saw an old man sitting on it, turning his head and smiling kindly at him.

Yuan Yongxiang rubbed his eyes vigorously, and then took a closer look, but there was nothing.

And the shaking range of the rocking chair gradually became smaller, and finally stopped.

Looking at the still rocking chair, Yuan Yongxiang felt chills all over his body. The doors and windows of the house were closed, and there was no nanny. Who made the chair shake?He shivered and walked back quickly.

Just as he stepped on the stairs and was about to go up, his wife suddenly appeared on the railing on the second floor.

She screamed crazily and grabbed the guardrail in horror, as if she didn't realize that she was on the second floor, she raised her foot and stepped on it, and fell directly from the second floor.

Fortunately, the place where the wife fell was facing the sofa, which just acted as a buffer.

After falling, the person rolled from the sofa to the ground, hit his head on the corner of the table, and bled profusely on the spot.

At this moment, the nanny and the driver, who had fallen into a deep sleep, woke up. They hurried out of the maid's room on the inner side of the first floor, and they were startled when they saw the woman paralyzed on the ground. Went to the hospital.

It was a private hospital, and the Yuan family was treated here for all serious and minor illnesses on weekdays.

Because the doctors here have good medical skills and a good environment, the hospital is still overcrowded even though the fees are high.Fortunately, the single ward that Yuan's family used to use was still vacant. After a detailed examination, his wife was sent to the ward.

Yuan Yongxiang asked the driver to help bring toiletries and simple clothes over, planning to keep watch at night.

The night was full of shocks and accidents. He was very tired, and fell asleep on the sofa shortly after crossing his arms.

After an unknown amount of time, he was awakened by a strange noise and opened his eyes suddenly.

The light in the ward was dim, and I couldn't see clearly. I only felt that there was a bent person standing on the head of my wife's bed.Yuan Yongxiang was terrified, his heart was pounding, and he didn't recover until his wife screamed. He sat up and turned on the light in the ward.

The wife was lying on the bed crying, covering her head with her hands, screaming, "Here she comes again! My head hurts so much, she is torturing me on purpose!"

Yuan Yongxiang hurried over to press the call bell, and then took away his wife's hand covering her head, suddenly shocked.

His wife's bandage was still well wrapped around her head, but blood was constantly oozing out, and the snow-white bandage was quickly dyed bright red under his gaze.

The doctor and nurse on duty arrived soon. The doctor took off the bandage and looked at it with a surprised expression.

"What's wrong with this wound..." The well-sutured wound opened again, and the suture was also removed.

The weirdest thing was that, if he remembered correctly, the patient's wound was not that big when he first entered the hospital.

Yuan Yongxiang never left the ward, so he naturally saw this strange scene. He picked the person up from the ground, and he knew the size of the wound. Right now, the wound on his wife's forehead is obviously twice as big as before. It looks like it was torn apart alive!

There was no way, at four o'clock in the morning, the wife was sent to the operating room again, and the wound was debrided and sutured again.

After the matter was over, it was already dawn when he was admitted to the ward again. Yuan Yongxiang was not in the mood to go back to sleep, so he called the company, canceled all meetings today, and planned to stay in the hospital.

……

"Fortunately, nothing happened afterwards, but my wife refused to go home or stay in the hospital. Now she has moved to live in the old house left by her natal family." Yuan Yongxiang cried out after telling the story. He took a deep breath and spit out all the suppressed things in his heart, feeling extremely relieved.

On the other side, the fat boss rubbed his hands anxiously. He didn't know what the two of them were talking about, and he was afraid they were talking bad about their cemetery.

He glanced at the water in the staff's hand, grabbed it, and brought it to the two of them: "Both, drink some water."

Yuan Yongxiang glanced at him, shook his head and refused.

Thinking of Chen Ling's dissuasion about moving the grave, he said to the fat boss: "I will not move the grave today, and go back and choose a suitable day before moving."

"This..." The fat boss knew that he might really annoy people if he tried to keep him, so he had to back down, "Okay, since you insist on this, let me arrange the dojo for you when you move the grave."

"No need." Yuan Yongxiang glanced at Chen Ling and said, "I have my own arrangements, so I don't need to bother the boss. As for the money, you don't have to refund, but you have to erase the name on the tombstone. No one uses two tombstones." reason."

"Yes, yes, everything will be done according to what you said, Mr. Yuan." The fat boss was so happy that he didn't need to refund the money, as long as he didn't offend people completely.

Yuan Yongxiang didn't intend to stay any longer, he just wanted to ask Chen Ling to visit his house as soon as possible.

He called back the two standing in front of his mother's tomb, smiled politely at Chen Ling and said, "Mr. Chen, I wonder if it's convenient for Fang to visit my house together now?"

Chen Ling had no choice but to nod and sent another message to his ancestor, saying that he was going to a new client's house and would not be able to return for a while.

The phone screen went off quickly, and he turned it on again. After the screen went off again, he still didn't get a reply.

Chen Ling put away his mobile phone and said to Yuan Yongxiang, "That's fine, let's go."

Talking on the way, I learned that Mrs. Yuan's parents are gone except for a younger brother in her natal family.Her parents are both ordinary working class, and they have no extra money left, only an old house left for the siblings to share.

Mrs. Yuan was rich and didn't need the house, so she gave it to her brother directly.

With Mr. Yuan's help, Mrs. Yuan's younger brother, Shen Mingliang, found a job in Yuan's family. His life got better and better, and he bought a house in Xinjian Community long ago.

So this old house was completely vacant.

When Mr. Yuan arrived with Chen Ling, Mrs. Yuan was huddled in the room, the nanny and the driver were there, one was cooking in the kitchen, and the other was watching TV in the crowded living room.

Seeing the boss came back, the driver hurried forward to report: "Sir, the wife has not come out of the room, and she has not heard the sound, she may still be sleeping."

Yuan Yongxiang turned around and said to Chen Ling: "She has been lying in bed and sleeping since she came back from the hospital early yesterday morning. Mr. Chen, wait a minute, I'll call her out."

"Okay." Chen Ling nodded and began to look around.

The room was very cloudy, and almost all of them came from the direction of Mrs. Yuan's room. He frowned and followed quickly, "Mr. Yuan, do you mind if I go in and have a look?"

"This..." Yuan Yongxiang hesitated, would it be bad to let his wife see a foreigner with disheveled clothes?

Chen Ling said coldly: "Your wife's room is very dark."

When Yuan Yongxiang heard that it was okay, he pushed open the door and saw everything inside. His eyes and mouth were wide open in horror, and his chest heaved violently.

Chen Ling passed him and went straight to the bed. A large piece of skin was missing from Mrs. Yuan's forehead, and the scarlet flesh was just exposed.

He raised his hand to touch the unconscious woman, and his fingertips touched the artery on the side of the neck. It was warm and pulsating clearly, "He's still alive, call an ambulance!"

Yuan Yongxiang shuddered, and hurriedly took out his mobile phone.

Accidentally, the phone fell to the ground.

In the end, the driver helped him pick up the phone and successfully contacted the emergency center.

The driver was curious, and looked inside with his feet on his feet. He was so frightened that he almost lost his breath. There was so much blood that the pillow was stained red.

His heart was pounding, and he became more and more frightened. The wife suddenly lost such a big piece of skin, why didn't she even make a sound?

The more I thought about it, the more frightened I became, so I hurried to find the nanny and told the story.

The nanny paused when she heard the words, and shifted her gaze to the red meat being chopped on the cutting board, feeling disgusted in her heart.She threw away the kitchen knife and hurried to the sink to wash her hands, chanting Amitabha, "It's really a crime, how could such a thing happen."

"Excuse me." Chen Ling walked in suddenly, startling the two of them.

The nanny patted her chest, knowing that this was brought back by her husband, she had a very good attitude: "Little brother, what's the matter?"

Chen Ling said bluntly: "I want to ask, have you been in this house all this time and never went out?"

"I went out to buy groceries, and I came back at about 10:30 in the morning. The driver is always there." The nanny looked at the driver after she finished speaking.

The driver was terrified just now, but now he was questioned suddenly, and immediately felt that Yuan Yongxiang was suspecting that he did it, so he specially sent someone to investigate, and hurriedly denied: "It has nothing to do with me, I never went into that house at all!"

"Relax, I don't doubt what you mean." Chen Ling comforted, "I just want to know if you have heard any sounds."

With such a large piece of skin torn off Mrs. Yuan's face, how could she not make a sound, even if she couldn't make a sound, she must at least struggle.

It was so strange, so quietly.

Knowing that he was not doubting himself, the driver was relieved.

He recalled carefully with a sullen face, and shook his head after a while and said, "No, there is no sound at all."

Chen Ling: "Really?"

Being asked such a question, the driver also wondered if he might not remember clearly and fell into memory again.

After a while, he suddenly "hissed" and his eyes became a little complicated: "I seem to have heard a little sound, rustling, as if my wife was walking on the ground with slippers. At that time, the TV was on in the living room, and I heard It's not real."

Chen Ling: "And then?"

Driver: "No more."

Chen Ling rubbed the center of his brows, said that he didn't say anything, he returned to the room, Mr. Yuan stood on the ground in a daze, he wanted to get close but didn't dare, fearing that moving at will would affect his wife's body.

Hearing footsteps, he turned his head, his voice was hoarse: "Mr. Chen, what's going on... You just said that the room is very dark, yes, did my mother come?"

Chen Ling glanced at the woman on the bed: "It should be."

Mrs. Yuan's face was tilted inward, and the area between her brows was slightly gloomy. In addition, the whites of the eyes exposed at the corners of her eyes were coiled with bloodshot eyes.

Chen Ling: "Mrs. Yuan is being stalked by your mother, other than that..."

He leaned closer, and Mr. Yuan reflexively grabbed him: "Mr. Chen, what are you going to do?"

Why would a ghost haunt another person for no reason? Chen Ling just wanted to learn from his ancestors, to hear if there was a bloody aura on the other person. If there was, then Mrs. Yuan might be inseparable from Yuan Yongxiang's mother's death.

"I seem to see a little unhappiness on Mrs. Yuan's brow, and I want to get closer and take a closer look." After saying this, Chen Ling felt his hand loosen.

He was able to get closer again.

Unfortunately, there was nothing to smell, except Mrs. Yuan's own bloody smell.

Suddenly there was a knock on the door in the living room, and the medical staff from the emergency center ran in immediately after opening the door, carefully put Mrs. Yuan on a stretcher, and carried her down the narrow corridor.

Chen Ling accompanied Yuan Yongxiang and followed closely. As soon as he got down to the ground floor, he saw many people surrounded by the ambulance, all of whom were watching the excitement.

Someone saw the unconscious Mrs. Yuan, and ouched, "Isn't this Shen Mingyue of the Shen family? Tsk tsk tsk, what's wrong with this face, half of the skin is missing."

"Keep your voice down!" Someone scolded the person who spoke.

"I didn't say anything about their family's scandal, so what are you doing in such a low voice."

The voice was very loud, especially the word "ugly thing", it was impossible for Yuan Yongxiang not to hear it.

After getting in the car, he said to Chen Ling embarrassingly: "They should be talking about Shen Mingliang, that is, my wife and her younger brother. He used to be a gambler, drank heavily, and owed a lot of debt. The last time he I was caught by the creditor and almost had my hands chopped off, but I paid off the debt for him."

"Then what happened later, does he still gamble?" Chen Ling asked.

"No more gambling, no more drinking." Yuan Yongxiang was a little relieved when he thought of his brother-in-law, "That kid used to be confused for a while, but now he has changed his ways and is going to work honestly every day."

Anything once addicted is very difficult to quit, it takes a lot of willpower to do it.

Chen Ling was somewhat unexpected: "It seems that he has a strong willpower."

"Indeed, when he first came to our company, he knew nothing and studied hard every day. Sometimes the whole company left, and he was still working overtime."

From the expression and tone of Yuan Yongxiang's speech, it can be felt that he has a very good relationship with his brother-in-law.

The driver in front interjected: "Mingliang is serious about his work, and he is also righteous. He even did me a little favor."

Chen Ling nodded: "He is a good man."

Yuan Yongxiang probably thought of his wife, and sighed: "Mingyue, oh, it's my wife. She treats my mother really well. Why don't you say that my mother doesn't pester anyone, but insists on pestering her?" .”

Chen Ling didn't have any evidence in his hand, so it's hard to say that there is something wrong with Mrs. Yuan, "Probably because mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have deep affection."

Yuan Yongxiang smiled wryly, propped his forehead wearily, and stopped talking.

After Mrs. Yuan arrived at the hospital, she was pushed into the ward again and placed temporarily.

As soon as the bed was stopped, the nurse was bending over to fix the wheels underneath, when the person lying on the bed suddenly screamed and sat up.

"I'm going to skin her! I'm going to skin her!"

"Let go of me, that wicked woman, that devil! I'm going to tear her face apart!"

"Get out of here, all of you! I'm going to kill that old bastard!"

Mrs. Yuan exerted great strength. She broke away from the doctors who were trying to push her back to the bed, and shouted like crazy, got off the bed, opened the door of the ward and rushed out.

Mr. Yuan, who had just walked to the door of the ward, was bumped into his arms by the rushing people. He lowered his head and saw his wife's face with half of his skin missing, and he let out a cry of fright.

He took two steps back, and didn't realize that it was his wife until the figure in nightgown was thrown away, so he quickly chased after her with the doctors and nurses.

Mrs. Yuan stumbled and ran into the elevator, her crazy appearance scared all the people who were in the elevator to run out.

She kept pressing the door close button with her fingers until the two metal doors were completely closed, then she retreated and leaned against the cold elevator wall as if discouraged.

Mrs. Yuan squatted down slowly, holding herself with both hands, her eyes were wide open, as if she could clearly see the potential invisible dangers around her.

There was dead silence in the elevator, and the narrow enclosed space magnified the suffocating silence a lot, making the sound of breathing inside very clear.

Mrs. Yuan stood up in panic, covering her mouth and nose with force.

The breathing sound was not from her, it was from another person!

She shrank to the corner, and the entire elevator was included in her vision.

The sound of breathing came again, and the cold breath brushed her cheek.

At this time, Mrs. Yuan finally felt the pain on her face, but she didn't have time to take care of it at all. The breaths and breaths coming from the other side were very hard, as if she couldn't hold her breath.

She was so familiar with this voice that she heard it just five days ago, and it was a voice that she could always hear whenever she passed by Yuan Yongxiang's mother.

There was always the strange smell unique to the old man in that breath, which made her sick, and she couldn't help but want to stay away.
