Do not disturb the evil spirits [Unlimited]

After the rain stopped, a layer of dark clouds in the sky was almost wrung dry, and water was no longer dripping wetly.

It was dusk at this time.

The bright orange glow and the clouds stirred together, like a dirty oil painting.

A black car passed two rows of trees along the road, the tires slowly rolled over the dim water on the street, and also crushed a few yellow and green mottled fallen leaves, and then in front of an unknown psychological consultation clinic stopped.

The young nurse in uniform at the front desk heard the movement through the door, took off her earphones and stopped fishing.She raised her head and greeted customers with a gentle smile: "Hi——"

Then, she couldn't help but froze.

The person in front of him looked very young, but his temperament was indescribably graceful. His clear ultramarine eyes, when he raised his eyes, contained the magic power to overturn all living beings.

"You... hello, do you have an appointment?" The little nurse's face was a little hot, and she didn't dare to look directly at the other party's face, so she had to lower her head to communicate with the other party.

"Hello, I'm looking for Lin Chu." The other party replied.

Even the sound is nice.

The little nurse became inexplicably happy, and she quickly checked the appointment records for the other party, and said, "Ah, I'm sorry, Dr. Lin will not be seeing patients in the afternoon. Are you sure you have an appointment with him at this time?"

"I'll call him directly." The other party said so, and then the landline next to the little nurse rang: Dr. Lin asked her to let him in.

The little nurse froze for a moment.The moment she dazzled, the black-haired young man was already walking up the stairs with ease, heading for the second floor.

He pushed open the door, and the first thing he saw was a treatment bed lying horizontally, with windows next to it, and the curtains were drawn tightly; the consultation room was so dark that it was not like daytime, only dim candlelight was burning——desk office On the table was a jar of brown candles.With a little wick, the smoke is lingering, exuding a strong and choking fragrance.

"..."

"Come here? How do you feel recently? The gypsy scented candle I brought you back from Turkey—how does it calm the nerves?"

A young doctor in a white coat came over, with a pair of clear peach blossom eyes under his long eyebrows, which made people shine.

He walked up to give the young man in front of him a hug, but the latter pressed a black long-handled umbrella against his chest.Fortunately, it didn't rain on the way Si Qingxuan came, and the umbrella was dry.

"Don't come here." The black-haired young man frowned and turned his head slightly, his black satin-like hair swaying slightly on his shoulders, "You stink."

Lin Chu was taken aback, and suddenly realized that in order to test the sleep-promoting effect of these aromatherapy, he had lit the incense for several days in a row, and his whole body was almost soaked in the smell, but he himself was completely used to the smell—smell For too long, his nose has almost "failed".

Lin Chu suddenly felt sad.

"Who do you think I am now for? It's because I'm afraid that this thing won't work. I tried it for a whole week before sending it to you-wait, have you never tried the things I sent you? ?”

"..." The black-haired young man looked away a little guilty.

"Si Qingxuan, I said you are too much, right? Do you have a conscience! I am not here to cure your insomnia, look at how much I sacrificed for you! It's good now, you still despise me What are you hiding? Come here for me!"

The two then engaged in a chase around the consulting room.Lin Chu tried his best, but he didn't even touch the corner of Si Qingxuan's clothes.The two stalemate for a few minutes across the diagnostic bed, and in the end it was Lin Chu who first compromised.

He snorted softly, walked to the wall and opened the curtains - the whole consultation room was instantly lit up.Si Qingxuan raised his eyebrows, hung the umbrella by the door, and cut off the aromatherapy with the scissors on the table, only then secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

"Finally I can breathe normally." Si Qingxuan said.

Lin Chu snorted softly: "It seems that aromatherapy is not suitable for you either."

Si Qingxuan's insomnia is very serious.

How serious is it?His sleep time is as little as an hour a day, and no more than five hours.It stands to reason that he should have died suddenly - Lin Chu also respected him as a man of God for being able to live safely until now.

But Lin Chu still wanted to cure his illness.

For this, Lin Chu can be said to have worked hard.He has learned both traditional Chinese medicine and western medicine, and he even went abroad to learn hypnotism from a master who performed hypnotic magic for two months. Even the master praised him for his extraordinary talent—it is a pity that these methods are completely different from Si Qingxuan. doesn't work.

In desperation, Lin Chu focused on some folk remedies that he had never tried before, including metaphysical props such as dream catchers and herbal incense.

Because some of them are outrageous, Si Qingxuan refuses to cooperate, and the two will quarrel like today.Lin Chu felt that he shy away from medical treatment, while Si Qingxuan despised him for not being scientific enough.

"If you can't, then you can't." Lin Chu sat on his office chair and breathed a sigh of relief, "Actually, I recently heard about a kind of electric shock therapy. It uses micro-current to stimulate nerves, relieve psychological pressure, and improve insomnia symptoms. I heard that There are many patients who were stimulated by it and cried bitterly after trying it, but their condition has improved significantly. Maybe I can buy a device and put it in the clinic—do you want to try it?"

Si Qingxuan: "You save yourself. I don't want to do electrotherapy. But if you are willing to show that you have been electrotherapy, I can buy a machine for you."

Lin Chu coughed lightly twice: "Forget it then."

Si Qingxuan's life experience is very strange.

He was born without parents and was raised by his grandfather alone.His grandfather also passed away when he was 14 years old, but he left him a legacy that could be squandered all his life.

Before his death, his grandfather took care of everything about Si Qingxuan, and prepared birthday gifts for him for many years in advance.Every year on his birthday, Si Qingxuan always receives a "surprise".

The old man had given serious birthday presents, but he had also given unscrupulous ones.

Serious ones such as corporate shares, real estate in various places, and some priceless art collections.

There are also a few less serious ones.

For example, he received a coffin sent back from South America by the old man.When I opened it, I found a dried arm lying inside.There was also a heavy weapon box attached to the coffin, in which lay a western-style long sword with a gold handle.The bottom of the sword body was engraved with patterns similar to bird feathers, so complicated and gorgeous that the light of the sword almost dazzled Si Qingxuan's eyes.

Si Qingxuan: "..."

It's outrageous.It turns out that controlled knives can also be checked in openly?

But Si Qingxuan still cautiously sealed the coffin in the basement, decorated the weapon box in the entrance, and hung a portrait of Zhong Kui beside it to guard the house.

Another example is when Si Qingxuan was 19 years old.The old man's assistant sent him an astronomical telescope.

Si Qingxuan, who was still a teenager at the time, was actually very happy. He rubbed the binoculars for a while, but the person who came to give him the gift never left. Instead, he seemed to be in a bit of a dilemma, rubbing his fists on the spot, as if he wanted to say something.

Si Qingxuan: "The gift has been delivered, you can go back."

"No, I think you may have misunderstood." It was a man with a mountain cap and an unshaven beard. I don't know if it was an illusion. Si Qingxuan felt that this man's eyes seemed to be brighter than ordinary people's, "This The telescope is mine—I paid a fortune for it."

Si Qingxuan: "."

"Your birthday present is not here." The man pointed towards the sky with some emotion, "It's over there."

The man came over to help Si Qingxuan adjust the telescope to find a suitable viewing angle, and then motioned him to take another look.

Si Qingxuan looked at it with some doubts—it was still a dark starry sky, nothing special.

"Hey, take a closer look. In the upper right corner, there is a glowing star." The man said proudly, "This is the planet I discovered, and it was named 'Qingxuan Star' by the International Astronomical Union."

"In other words, this is actually a star that belongs to you."

Si Qingxuan: "..."

"Ahem, I am an astronomer and a planet hunter who is keen on finding new stars. I observed this planet ten years ago. After your grandpa heard about it, he came to me, hoping to give you this planet. Named after him." The man's expression suddenly turned subtle, "I didn't want to, but he gave too much! It's also my fault that I was too young at that time. If I were replaced by the current me... I would definitely not Will be corrupted by the evil money!"

"One thing to say, planet naming is not something that can be bought with money. At that time, I also wondered if your grandfather was talking nonsense, but he actually did it in the end." The man shook with emotion. Shaking his head, he looked up at the starry sky with Si Qingxuan for a while, then took the telescope away and said goodbye, leaving Si Qingxuan alone on the spot without a word.

……

Lin Chu grew up with Si Qingxuan.He had heard all these stories.

——Today is Si Qingxuan's birthday again.

After his grandfather passed away, Lin Chu never missed Si Qingxuan's every birthday.It's the same this year.

Lin Chu asked curiously: "Have you received this year's gift? What surprise did the old man prepare for you?"

"..."

Si Qingxuan was silent for a while, then lowered his head to turn on the phone, and swipe the screen with his white fingertips to call up a few photos.

Lin Chu leaned over curiously, and found that those photos were all of gloomy deserted houses.

Withered and shriveled leaves piled up here and there, and dusty windows were set into blackened brick walls.Outside the window is the black woods—"skinny" as if burned by fire, but with lush branches, it looks like a group of ghosts with claws and claws from a distance.In the depths of the woods lay a small artificial lake, and a small boat was tied to the pier, shaking silently with the dark water waves.

"What is this? A new haunted house?" Lin Chu asked.

In his opinion, the European-style villa in the photo, or an ancient castle, is especially suitable for shooting horror movies or as a venue for haunted house games.

Si Qingxuan shook his head.

"This is the gift I received this year," he said, "an old castle in disrepair."

Lin Chu: "The old man is too unreliable. How did this house break down like this?"

"It doesn't matter if it's just broken." Si Qingxuan raised his eyebrows, "I just received the assessment report from over there, the beams of the castle need to be installed, some of the aging stonework needs to be rebuilt, the bricks and floors of the roof The wood of the doors and windows has also been updated—but this is only to maintain the stability of its external structure, and the inside is still dilapidated and uninhabitable—these alone are worth the money to buy this old castle.”

Si Qingxuan reckoned that to make this ancient castle bright and beautiful, it would cost at least twice the market price of the castle itself.

"This is too outrageous." Lin Chu said, "Then why don't you fix it? Or sell it?"

Si Qingxuan: "That old castle has never been repaired since it was bought by my grandfather. It's too dilapidated, so I'm afraid it won't be easy to sell."

It means that Si Qingxuan must be repaired.If it is not repaired, the castle will fall into his hands.

"Actually, the old castle can also be put into commercial use after it is repaired. For example, as a hotel, collecting tickets for scenic spots and so on." Si Qingxuan was thoughtful, "You have provided me with a new idea."

It can be transformed into a haunted house.

Haunted house, dilapidated is the norm.This can save a lot of decoration costs, why not do it.

"By the way, that haunted house... bah, where is that old castle?"

"In Spain, in a village called Samuelman." Si Qingxuan sighed, "Anyway, I'm just thinking about it. The castle must be repaired, and I can't figure it out for a while. Slowly bring it on."

"It seems that your grandfather really gave you a hot potato." Lin Chu's expression was frivolous and joyful, "Compared with him, the gift I want to give you is much more simple—my mother asked you to come today We have dinner at home. She will make you a delicious celebration table, and she also made your favorite crispy roast duck."

The production process of roast duck is complicated, and it is a real "hard dish" in Lin's family. Lin Chu's mother would not make it even during the holidays.

"Thank you, Auntie, for me." Si Qingxuan said.

"Thank you, you can tell her these words in person. Alright, let's go, it's time to get off work." Lin Chu glanced at the clock on the wall, and was about to take off his white coat when he heard A rush of high-heeled shoes sounded in the corridor.

very strange.Even though there was a distance, and there were not only a few of them in the clinic, the sound of high heels fell clearly in their ears.

"Doctor Lin, are you there?"

It was the voice of a strange woman.Careful tone, but with a hoarse cry.

"Doctor Lin, please help me. No one can help me except you—"

Lin Chu hesitated, and just about to go to the door to have a look, but the woman began to knock on the door vigorously.

The silent setting sun painted their vision red like blood.

Through the door, Lin Chu vaguely saw a long-haired woman wearing a mask.She was wearing a black dress, with slender wrists, and the force with which she knocked on the door was somewhat extraordinary.

"Open the door... open the door!"

The woman's voice suddenly turned cold.

"Doctor Lin, it's me. Why didn't you see me? Am I not your patient?"

"Ha, I see, did you not believe what I said at all?"

"Why, why...you are a doctor, you have to help me..."

There was a moment of silence outside the door.

Her voice dropped again, with some pathetic begging and coaxing: "Doctor, can you let me in?"

Lin Chu hesitated a little, and glanced at the dark door——

But the woman in the black skirt pressed her face tightly against the door, her eyes widened, the whites of her eyes were strangely blue and white, but the corners of her eyes were hanging up, revealing a smile pretending to be crazy.

And there was something hidden behind her.The long brown handle, and above it is bright red-it seems to be a fire ax that used to hang in the utility room next door.
