I cried after fighting with the villain [Quick Transmigration]
Chapter 216 I Became the Night Supervisor 24
Things like paper figurines are too unlucky, and no car is willing to carry them. Li Yu thought about finding a shared bicycle before starting when it was getting late.
He returned to the living room with a cheeky face, licked his mouth a few times, "Grandma, can I stay with you for a while, can I leave in the evening, I can help you cook, what do you like to eat, I will buy it."
The old lady raised her gray eyes and glanced at him, "It's up to you."
After receiving the temporary residence permit, Li Yu rolled up his sleeves and began to help the old lady clean.
He moved quickly, and after an hour and a half, the whole house was clean and transparent from the inside to the outside, especially the windows, which were so bright that people could be seen.
The old lady was quite satisfied, she hooked her lips, and beckoned to the young man who was wiping his sweat, "Come here and have a rest."
Li Yu sat beside her, resting his cheeks to watch her nimbly making paper flowers, white, yellow, and pink, each of which was the size of a palm, and then tied it to a small bamboo stick.
The old lady put the paper flowers into a bag, and carried them to the wreath skeleton that had already been tied with straw, and took out one by one, and inserted them on the straw.
Making wreaths is meticulous work, and Li Yu didn't dare to help blindly, but just reached out and stacked the colored papers neatly by color.
The old lady came out with an empty bag, sat down staggeringly, "If you have any questions, ask quickly."
Li Yu, "You saw it."
The old lady snorted coldly, "You've been sitting here for a long time, hesitant to speak, and your eyes are wandering. My old lady is only blind in one eye, not completely blind."
"Grandma, I just want to ask, besides ghosts, is there anything more powerful than ghosts in the world?"
The old lady paused as she picked up the patterned paper and smiled, "Of course."
Li Yu suddenly came alive, "What is it?"
"Yin qi, evil qi, without these two, ghosts are ordinary souls. If they don't go to reincarnation, they will disappear after seven to 49 days."
Li Yu didn't know anything about it, and asked, "What are Yin Qi and evil Qi?"
"The five elements of yin and yang are opposite and complement each other. This point can also be extended to all things, including people and Fengshui. When it falls on people, if the yang energy is strong, the spirit will be full, the body will be healthy, the personality will be cheerful, and it will not be prone to bad luck; Weak and easy to get sick, dreamy at night, easy to provoke dirty things."
When speaking the second half of the sentence, the old lady gave the young man a sideways look.
Li Yu's heart tightened, and he thought, could it be seen that he is not himself again?
Fortunately, the old lady did not stop her gaze, and continued to explain, "If it falls on Fengshui, Yangdi is a place with strong yang energy, which will make people feel happy and cheerful; on the contrary, a place with strong yin energy will make people feel happy." People feel oppressed, and if they stay for a long time, they may even be infected with diseases."
Li Yu didn't expect that the old lady knew so much, she was definitely a hermit.
He hurriedly asked, "What about the evil spirit?"
"That's complicated. The resentment and anger after death, and the blood energy after a murder can form evil spirits." The old lady combed the newly folded paper flower petals with lowered eyes, and sighed, "But, this evil spirit It sounds complicated, but it's not a big deal, if there is no yin energy to nourish the soul, those newly dead ghosts will be scattered when touched by the yang energy, naturally there will be no resentment, and the evil energy will naturally not be able to arise."
After hearing this, Li Yu was thoughtful, and asked after a while, "Can the yin and evil qi turn into a human being?"
The old lady was taken aback, then shook her head, "I haven't heard of it, but there are so many wonders in this world, who can say for sure."
Li Yu had a direction in his heart.
Didn't the two cases in the community mean that people turned into ghosts after death and killed the murderer?
Ghosts need yin energy to nourish them, and their anger turns into evil energy, which fuels their killing intent.
Therefore, the goal of the task is not Yin Qi, or evil Qi
Choose one of the two, the success rate is only 50.00%, so don't do multiple-choice questions, just check it out.
The old lady tied another red paper flower, tied it to a bamboo stick with a very thin wire, and threw it into a plastic bag, "Why do you ask these?"
"It's nothing." Li Yu stretched his clothes and stood up, "What do you want to eat, I'm going to the vegetable market now."
The old lady was also polite, "Braised trotters, braised pork, boiled cabbage heart, loofah soup."
Li Yu, "..."
I didn't realize that the old lady had such a good appetite.
He stuffed his hands into his trouser pockets, felt with his hands whether the money was enough, and went out.
I went to the vegetable market and bought a lot of bags. Except for dinner, I put all the ingredients in the refrigerator to save the old lady from having to go out because of her legs and feet.
Both of them were full after dinner, and sat on the sofa together while watching TV while digesting.
It was exactly [-]:[-] in the evening, and the news had just started. After a few domestic news, there was international news.
The raging fire engulfed the primeval forest of a certain continent, and tens of thousands of animals and plants were persecuted. At the same time, the primitive tribes around the forest were also affected.
Looking at the thick black smoke, Li Yu frowned and suddenly remembered something.
In the fire five years ago, would Sheng Yiming be burned to death like Ah Xiang?The fire brought by the explosion made the people trapped in it despair. At the same time, they were also angry and unwilling, looking forward to the arrival of rescue so that they could escape the sea of suffering.
But until the end, they didn't wait to be rescued, and their fresh lives were taken away by the fire.
The smell he had smelled from the vinegar ghost before, and the "base note" hidden under the perfume on Sheng Yiming's body, were actually the burnt smell produced by the burning of house materials.
1551, "If he was human from the beginning, then by what chance did he come back to life?"
Li Yu opened his mouth, unable to answer.
1551, "If he really died in the fire, why didn't he have a little wound on his body."
Li Yu didn't know about the other places, but there was indeed none on his back. The skin was better than his at 01:30. The explosion caused by the gas should not be underestimated.
Li Yu once again fell into a difficult situation.
The old lady looked at the young man strangely, but said nothing, and continued to do her own thing.
Li Yu stayed at the old lady's house until eleven o'clock. After confirming that there was no activity outside, he left with the paper man on his shoulders and found a shared bicycle on the street.
This bicycle should have been rescued from some selfish ghost. There is a seat welded to the rear tire, which just happens to stand the paper man on it.
Li Yu held the front of the bike with one hand, and grabbed the paper man's legs with the other hand, so as not to fall halfway through the ride.
The moon was dark and the wind was high, and in the wilderness, except for the street lights on both sides of the road, there were only two burning fires and two middle-aged strangers.
The strangers were guarding a fire, holding thick paper money in their hands, chattering and burning the paper.
Hearing the movement, the two looked up one after another, their eyes were also bloodshot.
Li Yu took a step back from being watched by those two pairs of eyes, his heart tightened, and he felt a bad feeling.
"1551, what day is it today, why is there someone burning paper outside at this hour?"
Generally speaking, when you meet a deceased relative on a memorial day, you will go to the cemetery to pay homage. If the distance is too far, find a crossroad.Of course, some people who don't pay attention to it just set up a fire on the side of the road.
Like today, bumping into two of them at once is not considered good luck no matter how you think about it.
1551 said, "The day after tomorrow is the July [-]th Ghost Festival, but according to this world, the gate of ghosts has been opened since the fourteenth, and it is not closed until the sixteenth."
In other words, in more than half an hour, the ghost gate will open.
Li Yu was silent for a while, counting with his fingers how long his 49 [-] days were left, the more he broke, the more frustrated he became.
He had to make a quick decision, and if the next swarm of ghosts rushed out, he might not be able to get away.
But it was not until twelve o'clock, and he didn't dare to burn it blindly, so he could only push the shared bicycle to the side of the road and park it, and carried the paper man and the paper money and ingots he bought from the old lady before he left and put them on the ground , Holding the mobile phone and playing Xiaoxiaole.
The cheerful music did not improve the atmosphere, but instead attracted the dissatisfaction of the two people in the distance.
The two stood up together and yelled at this side, saying that he was disrespectful to the dead and had to be shut down immediately.
Li Yu had no choice but to turn off the background music that adjusted his mood aggrievedly, and put all his attention on the screen of the phone.
I don't know why, but the time passed very slowly. After playing two rounds, I glanced at the time at the top of the screen, and it was only 23:[-].
The two paper burners stopped burning halfway through the fire, and each squatted on the curb on one side to smoke.
Li Yu heard one of them on the phone, and the person on the other end of the phone should be blaming him for burning too early, and his relatives couldn't get the money.
The man stubbed out the cigarette impatiently, "Why are you so particular about it, can't it be enough if you want it?"
Upon hearing this, Li Yu knew that this person did not believe in ghosts and gods so much, otherwise he would not have a casual attitude of completing the task.
The other person was much more strange. He sat with his back to the road, facing the trees in the roadside green belt, muttering something in his mouth.
Li Yu asked the system to amplify the voice, and the chirping voice instantly amplified in his ears, "Dad, didn't you dream that it was cold down there last night? I wrote my birthday on one of the paper money. There is no mistake. You will definitely receive it. After you get the money, go and buy two thick clothes first, and when the gate of hell opens, you can wear new clothes to see us..."
Li Yu, "..."
The old man really helped him choose a good place.
The weather in summer is hot, and the nights are slightly cooler, especially the hours from midnight to four or five in the morning.
Feeling the slight cool breeze, Li Yu shrank his shoulders and put his legs together.
Behind them, several big trees were rustling by the wind, and even swayed a little, as if something passed through them.
Li Yu cheered up, stood up from the ground with his arms folded, and walked directly to a street lamp without even caring about the paper figurine.
The light fell from above, forming a ball of his shadow and sticking to the edge of the shoe, but soon, the shadow mutated.
There seemed to be a monster wrapped in his own shadow, it was struggling, stretched out a sharp claw, scratched the things blocking him, and then got out, getting bigger and bigger.
Li Yu felt that his feet were filled with lead again, and he couldn't move an inch.
The monster crawled out of the silhouetted shadow, like a mass of flowing pitch, black and emitting a pungent stench.
Li Yu was frightened and stupid. He found that the recent ghosts are really diverse, and they are less and less image-oriented.
He opened his mouth to call for help, but no sound could be squeezed out of his throat, and even breathing became difficult. He could only watch helplessly as the thing gradually stood up from the ground and stretched out its black claws.
Strange things happened.
When the claw was about to touch the young man's body, there was a sudden scream of pain, and he retreated several meters at once.
Li Yu froze for a moment, his eyes lit up, and he pressed his right shoulder with his backhand.
The place that Sheng Yiming pressed suddenly started to hurt again. He frowned slightly, his fingers penetrated into his collar, and he felt a deep tooth mark. There was no blood, but there were blood scabs.
After being bitten by the jealous ghost, he actually confirmed it, and there was nothing on his shoulder.
The boss is worthy of being a boss, he can create a dog gnawing picture with just one touch.
Thinking so in his heart, Li Yu was still very grateful in his heart, and at the same time silently admired that the goal this time was really as he said himself, all evils do not invade, it is completely a walking coward.
Just a residual breath can drive the ugly ghost back.
As long as he is there, my mother no longer has to worry about me being afraid of ghosts.
The little episode gave Li Yu great courage, and he glanced in the direction of Shadow Ghost.
It was staring at itself, but it didn't dare to approach it rashly, but lay down on the ground, waiting for the opportunity to move.
Li Yu disliked its ugly appearance and didn't want to look at it any more. He was about to lower his head and continue playing with his phone, but he didn't know if it was a coincidence when a call came in suddenly, it was a string of numbers.
He has typed this string of numbers twice, and the 4444 at the end is very eye-catching. Few bosses use such an unlucky number.
Li Yu squinted his eyes as he stared at the screen. Why didn't he find out earlier that the target was not a human being? He had read so many times in the previous few worlds, but he didn't have a long memory.
"Hello." He deliberately pretended not to know him, "Who are you looking for?"
The breathing on the other end of the receiver was obviously heavy. After a long time, Sheng Yiming said, "Mr. Ding, it's me."
"Oh, it's Mr. Sheng." Li Yu suddenly realized, and asked instead, "How did Mr. Sheng know my phone number?"
"Ask Mr. Tang." Sheng Yiming's voice was not friendly and gentle, and he gritted his teeth against the young man's alienated attitude. "Mr. Ding forgot something with me."
Li Yu was taken aback, "What?" subconsciously touched his pocket.
Fuck, left the key behind.
"The key." Sheng Yiming paused, and said inexplicably, "It seems that Mr. Ding hasn't returned home, so he doesn't know yet."
Ever since he knew the target's identity, Li Yu's trust in him had dropped to zero, and he now suspects that the key he left behind was the other party's tricks.
After all, the bunch of keys is in the trouser pocket, so it is not so easy to fall out.
Probably because he was silent for too long, the man spoke again, "Mr. Ding?"
Li Yu came back to his senses and said directly, "Yeah, I was delayed by something in the afternoon, and I have been outside all the time, and I haven't been able to go home until now."
"It's so late, what is Mr. Ding doing outside?" Sheng Yiming paused, "What trouble did you encounter?"
Li Yu rolled his eyes, and said yes, yes, big trouble, he is about to burn paper for a double-faced pie man, he is not happy or unexpected.
"It's a little trouble."
"Is there anything I can do for you?"
"Is it convenient for Mr. Sheng? If it's convenient, I'll send you the coordinates." Li Yu looked down at his toes and sighed, "I'm quite scared now. If you have time, can you come and accompany me?"
After a few more words, the two parties hung up the phone together as if they had rehearsed in advance.
1551 worried, "Why did you recruit him? Aren't you afraid of going crazy and killing you?"
"I'm afraid, I'm afraid of death." Li Yu teased, raising his eyes to look into the distance.
Like the neighborhood where Sheng Yiming lived, the road was foggy, rising layers upon layers, and at the same time brought an indescribable coldness.
He had a hunch that as twelve o'clock got closer, the fog would get thicker.
It reminded him of the chills on his body every time he bumped into a ghost, and the dim lights that were inexplicably blurred.
Are those things the same as these fogs?
So what exactly are these fogs?
The old lady said that Yang Qi makes people feel warm, while Yin Qi is just the opposite.
So these do not know where to come from, the overwhelming mist is Yin Qi, a tonic that allows the soul to walk in the world. His existence is to ghosts and ghosts, just like oxygen to human beings.
Seeing that the host did not respond for a long time, 1551 asked, "What's wrong with you?"
"Brother Yi, I now know what the target is." Li Yu said, "He is Yin Qi, but now I still don't know the reason for his generation, nor why he turned into Sheng Yiming."
1551, "You want to submit the answer?"
Li Yu thought for a while, then nodded, "Well, submit it."
He is confident in this answer.
This time the result came down very quickly, and in the blink of an eye, Li Yu had an extra light screen in front of his eyes.
In the [Target Secret] column, all the small golden chrysanthemums were lit up.
Halfway through the task, Li Yu was both happy and melancholy, because he knew nothing about the past of the task target.
1551 asked, "I know that when you called the target, you actually wanted to observe and test it in person. But now that the target's secret has been revealed, can you tell him to go back?"
"No." The system is only half right, the other half is that he is really a little scared and needs to hang up to give him courage.
The mist on the road was misty, and as time passed, it began to spread around.
Not only Li Yu, but even the two strangers who were waiting for the ghost door to open began to feel weak and moved closer to the young man.
Li Yu stood still, pretending to be calm, and took out the phone again, adding Sheng Yiming's number to contacts, but he was still unwilling to put down the phone.
After struggling for a few seconds, he turned his back and called the audience.
The old man actually didn't sleep, he was very energetic when he heard the voice, and he didn't feel sleepy.
Li Yu cut to the chase, "Old man, do you know that today is the 25th of July, and in [-] minutes it will be the [-]th of July?"
The old man was sitting on the rocking chair looking at the stars, biting his golden nanmu pipe, and said frankly, "I know, that's why I let you go, in case your paper figurine can really calm him down, he Wouldn't it be nice to be able to leave directly from the ghost gate?"
What a fart, before the gate of ghosts opened, Li Yu could already feel the shadows of ghosts.
He tightened his grip on the phone and said, "Mr., I'm so scared by myself. I called Mr. Sheng to accompany me."
The temple master thought that his ears were out of order, and his voice was so loud that it split, "What?!"
Li Yu repeated it, and then he heard a creak on the other end of the phone. The old man seemed to get up from his chair and was pacing back and forth impatiently.
"You said that Mr. has a special constitution. As long as he is around, I won't be afraid."
The voice on the other end of the phone was so clear that it was almost naive, no, he was an idiot, and what troubled him the most was that Sheng Yiming agreed to the young man's request and accompanied him to burn paper figurines for himself.
Isn't this what's wrong?
The more the temple master thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong, and the speed of pacing became faster and faster. After walking a few times, he suddenly stopped, "Ding Lian, let Sheng Yiming go back, don't let him come over."
Li Yu didn't seem to understand the worry in the other party's tone, so he asked, "Why? Mr. Sheng will be here soon."
Guan advocated opening his mouth, finally let out a hi, and yelled loudly, "I'm afraid he will harm you, he is not a good thing."
At the same time as the voice fell, there was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone.
When the voice came again, the temple master froze, and he raised the corners of his mouth in an embarrassing way, "Mr. Sheng."
Sheng Yiming's voice was light and ethereal, but cold as ice, "The Lord said, why am I not a good person?"
The Lord of the Temple, "..."
Li Yu, "..."
In fact, he was just chatting with an expert, raising his courage, and asking other questions by the way.
He stared at the back of the man's head sadly, and said to the system, "It's over, the temple master will definitely be warned, and it will be difficult to ask again."
1551 was puzzled, "Didn't you already know the secret? What else do you want to ask?"
Li Yu's face turned red, and he hesitated to say two words.
system,"……"
It pretended to cough a few times, "It's the same if you ask again later, after all, it will take time to develop to that point."
"I don't think so." Li Yu said, "Whether people and ghosts understand different ways, I'm afraid I will be sucked tonight."
1551, "Then you want to open some."
Li Yu, "..."
He has long seen that Brother Yi has a low EQ even if he installs an emotional module, and he is so patterned in comforting others, he doesn't care about it.
After chattering on the other end of the phone for a while, Sheng Yiming finally said, "Mr. Ding and I will come to see you on Saturday."
The temple master almost cried after hearing this, and said with a forced smile, "Okay, okay, warm welcome."
Sheng Yiming hung up the phone, put the mobile phone in the young man's hand, and glanced at the two middle-aged men standing behind the young man.
He pursed his lower lip, glanced at the paper figurine standing against the tree trunk, his eyes rested on its face, and his tone was inexplicably tinged with joy, "Why didn't you draw the facial features?"
Li Yu suddenly felt guilty, "Isn't this very good, after receiving it, you can knead your facial features at will."
Sheng Yiming took a deep look at the young man and smiled, "Good idea."
The two elder brothers who hid there chuckled and joked, "This idea is quite fresh, next time I burn paper figurines for my father, I will order them like this."
Another person also thought it was feasible and echoed.
The four of them stood silently on the side of the road for a few minutes, and saw cars coming from four directions at the intersection one after another, also coming to burn paper.
Li Yu took a step back, raised his head slightly and put his head close to the man's ear, and said, "It seems that what the temple master said is right, this place is really a good place to pay homage to burning paper."
"These two roads are in the right direction." After Sheng Yiming finished speaking, he suddenly pressed the young man's right shoulder and stepped back, while clasping his five fingers calmly.
Li Yu clearly felt that the man's nails pierced the fabric and sank into his shoulder.
But when he turned his head and looked over, his hands had slender fingers, round nails, and were as beautiful and white as plaster sculptures.
Looking back a little, there was no abnormality on the shoulder, but it began to hurt slightly, sharply, as if something was drilling in, and at the same time, an inexplicable coldness rushed into the body.
Li Yu shivered, and just about to hug his arms tightly, a hot coat was put on him.
The coat was stained with the man's body temperature and the light sandalwood fragrance.
Li Yu turned his back, took a deep breath where the man couldn't see, and tasted with his eyes closed, the faint smell of burnt wood penetrated into his nostrils.
His brain was out of control, and he began to worry about what happened to Sheng Yiming. Did he become "Sheng Yiming" from the beginning, or was he possessed by a newly dead person just like himself.
I remember Tang and Song said that Sheng Yiming went abroad for treatment for a full year because of illness.
Could it be that "Sheng Yiming" was dead at that time, and the mission goal was to go abroad for treatment so that he could better integrate himself with his body?
"It's twelve o'clock." Sheng Yiming's voice suddenly sounded.
Li Yu came back to his senses, took out his phone and took a look, sure enough, it was exactly [-]:[-]:[-].
The next second after putting away the mobile phone, there was movement on the asphalt road under the night, the leaves moved automatically without wind, and very faint shadows passed under the street lights, fleeting.
Li Yu looked at the two strange men standing not far from him. They just shivered when the sound of the leaves sounded, and they didn't react because they didn't see anything.
The two returned to where they were before, and then took out the paper money and paper ingots to be burned from the car, and quickly started a fire again.
Sheng Yiming stood quietly behind the young man, with both hands in his trouser pockets, looking at the young man's black hair indifferently.
Li Yu shivered, and looked back subconsciously, just in time to meet the man's gaze.
Only then did Sheng Yiming speak, "What do you need my help for?"
Li Yu pursed his lips, "It's actually a small thing, accompany me to burn something for a friend."
"The paper man?"
"Yeah." Li Yu responded, turned around and walked under the tree, and fell back again, "Forget it, today is not a good day, so don't burn it."
Sheng Yiming walked towards him, grabbed the young man by the shoulder, and turned him in a different direction.
"It's all here, let's go after burning."
"..." Li Yu never knew that the panacea of "everything is coming" can still be used in this situation.
He had no choice but to bite the bullet and walk towards the paper figurine.
I have to say that the faceless paper man is in good condition in every aspect except for his face. His narrow waist and long legs, and his clothes fit the modern trend. It can be seen that the old lady put her heart into making it.
Li Yu picked up the paper man in one go and walked to the crossroads.
Besides him, there were already a dozen people squatting on the ground and starting to burn things. Black smoke rose up, dimming the lights on both sides of the road.
Li Yu glanced at the man standing behind him who had already walked over, "Mr. Sheng, do you have a lighter?"
Sheng Yiming smiled strangely, his eyes were deep, "Are you asking me?"
Li Yu, "No? Then I'll go find someone else."
Sheng Zhiming pressed the young man's shoulder and fixed him in place, "I have."
With slender fingers, he took the lighter out of his trouser pocket and handed it to the young man. When he was done, he patted the back of the other's neck, and the corners of his lips twitched, "Go."
Li Yu was stunned, can he bear it like this?
He gripped the lighter tightly and burned it as soon as he said it. At the same time, he burned it together, as well as the paper money he bought from the old lady, all of which were tens of billions of super-huge bills.
Looking at the burnt paper money, Sheng Yiming raised his eyebrows slightly, "Mr. Ding has a good relationship with that friend?"
"No, he always scares me." Li Yu complained, and then changed the topic, "But he also saved me, so I am very grateful to him."
Sheng Yiming, "How grateful are you?"
Li Yu, "Unspeakable degree."
Sheng Yiming, "It's better to promise each other with your body."
With a ding, a new prop dropped.
Li Yu didn't have time to check, so he frowned and stared at the man in front of him, "Mr. Sheng is joking?"
"It's not a joke." Sheng Yiming walked around behind the young man, pressed both hands on the other's shoulders at the same time, and pressed his chin against the depression of the other's shoulder and neck.
That place seemed tailor-made for him, he could kiss his collarbone when he lowered his head, and he could smell the fragrance of youth shampoo when he tilted his head.
Li Yu couldn't move, and his whole body tensed up.
Sheng Yiming smiled close to his ear, "Look, if you don't believe me."
Following the direction of the man's finger, Li Yu saw facial features showing on the unobstructed white face of the paper man.
Black hair, eyebrows, eyes, eyelashes, a straight nose bridge and a small red mouth, the chin is also slightly sharpened, as if an invisible hand is rubbing it little by little.
And what made his hair stand on end the most was that that face was exactly the same as his current one.
The head on his shoulders tilted slightly, and the breath sprayed on the skin of his side neck.
Li Yu heard the man ask in a hoarse voice, "Did you see that, he doesn't want paper figurines, he wants you."
He returned to the living room with a cheeky face, licked his mouth a few times, "Grandma, can I stay with you for a while, can I leave in the evening, I can help you cook, what do you like to eat, I will buy it."
The old lady raised her gray eyes and glanced at him, "It's up to you."
After receiving the temporary residence permit, Li Yu rolled up his sleeves and began to help the old lady clean.
He moved quickly, and after an hour and a half, the whole house was clean and transparent from the inside to the outside, especially the windows, which were so bright that people could be seen.
The old lady was quite satisfied, she hooked her lips, and beckoned to the young man who was wiping his sweat, "Come here and have a rest."
Li Yu sat beside her, resting his cheeks to watch her nimbly making paper flowers, white, yellow, and pink, each of which was the size of a palm, and then tied it to a small bamboo stick.
The old lady put the paper flowers into a bag, and carried them to the wreath skeleton that had already been tied with straw, and took out one by one, and inserted them on the straw.
Making wreaths is meticulous work, and Li Yu didn't dare to help blindly, but just reached out and stacked the colored papers neatly by color.
The old lady came out with an empty bag, sat down staggeringly, "If you have any questions, ask quickly."
Li Yu, "You saw it."
The old lady snorted coldly, "You've been sitting here for a long time, hesitant to speak, and your eyes are wandering. My old lady is only blind in one eye, not completely blind."
"Grandma, I just want to ask, besides ghosts, is there anything more powerful than ghosts in the world?"
The old lady paused as she picked up the patterned paper and smiled, "Of course."
Li Yu suddenly came alive, "What is it?"
"Yin qi, evil qi, without these two, ghosts are ordinary souls. If they don't go to reincarnation, they will disappear after seven to 49 days."
Li Yu didn't know anything about it, and asked, "What are Yin Qi and evil Qi?"
"The five elements of yin and yang are opposite and complement each other. This point can also be extended to all things, including people and Fengshui. When it falls on people, if the yang energy is strong, the spirit will be full, the body will be healthy, the personality will be cheerful, and it will not be prone to bad luck; Weak and easy to get sick, dreamy at night, easy to provoke dirty things."
When speaking the second half of the sentence, the old lady gave the young man a sideways look.
Li Yu's heart tightened, and he thought, could it be seen that he is not himself again?
Fortunately, the old lady did not stop her gaze, and continued to explain, "If it falls on Fengshui, Yangdi is a place with strong yang energy, which will make people feel happy and cheerful; on the contrary, a place with strong yin energy will make people feel happy." People feel oppressed, and if they stay for a long time, they may even be infected with diseases."
Li Yu didn't expect that the old lady knew so much, she was definitely a hermit.
He hurriedly asked, "What about the evil spirit?"
"That's complicated. The resentment and anger after death, and the blood energy after a murder can form evil spirits." The old lady combed the newly folded paper flower petals with lowered eyes, and sighed, "But, this evil spirit It sounds complicated, but it's not a big deal, if there is no yin energy to nourish the soul, those newly dead ghosts will be scattered when touched by the yang energy, naturally there will be no resentment, and the evil energy will naturally not be able to arise."
After hearing this, Li Yu was thoughtful, and asked after a while, "Can the yin and evil qi turn into a human being?"
The old lady was taken aback, then shook her head, "I haven't heard of it, but there are so many wonders in this world, who can say for sure."
Li Yu had a direction in his heart.
Didn't the two cases in the community mean that people turned into ghosts after death and killed the murderer?
Ghosts need yin energy to nourish them, and their anger turns into evil energy, which fuels their killing intent.
Therefore, the goal of the task is not Yin Qi, or evil Qi
Choose one of the two, the success rate is only 50.00%, so don't do multiple-choice questions, just check it out.
The old lady tied another red paper flower, tied it to a bamboo stick with a very thin wire, and threw it into a plastic bag, "Why do you ask these?"
"It's nothing." Li Yu stretched his clothes and stood up, "What do you want to eat, I'm going to the vegetable market now."
The old lady was also polite, "Braised trotters, braised pork, boiled cabbage heart, loofah soup."
Li Yu, "..."
I didn't realize that the old lady had such a good appetite.
He stuffed his hands into his trouser pockets, felt with his hands whether the money was enough, and went out.
I went to the vegetable market and bought a lot of bags. Except for dinner, I put all the ingredients in the refrigerator to save the old lady from having to go out because of her legs and feet.
Both of them were full after dinner, and sat on the sofa together while watching TV while digesting.
It was exactly [-]:[-] in the evening, and the news had just started. After a few domestic news, there was international news.
The raging fire engulfed the primeval forest of a certain continent, and tens of thousands of animals and plants were persecuted. At the same time, the primitive tribes around the forest were also affected.
Looking at the thick black smoke, Li Yu frowned and suddenly remembered something.
In the fire five years ago, would Sheng Yiming be burned to death like Ah Xiang?The fire brought by the explosion made the people trapped in it despair. At the same time, they were also angry and unwilling, looking forward to the arrival of rescue so that they could escape the sea of suffering.
But until the end, they didn't wait to be rescued, and their fresh lives were taken away by the fire.
The smell he had smelled from the vinegar ghost before, and the "base note" hidden under the perfume on Sheng Yiming's body, were actually the burnt smell produced by the burning of house materials.
1551, "If he was human from the beginning, then by what chance did he come back to life?"
Li Yu opened his mouth, unable to answer.
1551, "If he really died in the fire, why didn't he have a little wound on his body."
Li Yu didn't know about the other places, but there was indeed none on his back. The skin was better than his at 01:30. The explosion caused by the gas should not be underestimated.
Li Yu once again fell into a difficult situation.
The old lady looked at the young man strangely, but said nothing, and continued to do her own thing.
Li Yu stayed at the old lady's house until eleven o'clock. After confirming that there was no activity outside, he left with the paper man on his shoulders and found a shared bicycle on the street.
This bicycle should have been rescued from some selfish ghost. There is a seat welded to the rear tire, which just happens to stand the paper man on it.
Li Yu held the front of the bike with one hand, and grabbed the paper man's legs with the other hand, so as not to fall halfway through the ride.
The moon was dark and the wind was high, and in the wilderness, except for the street lights on both sides of the road, there were only two burning fires and two middle-aged strangers.
The strangers were guarding a fire, holding thick paper money in their hands, chattering and burning the paper.
Hearing the movement, the two looked up one after another, their eyes were also bloodshot.
Li Yu took a step back from being watched by those two pairs of eyes, his heart tightened, and he felt a bad feeling.
"1551, what day is it today, why is there someone burning paper outside at this hour?"
Generally speaking, when you meet a deceased relative on a memorial day, you will go to the cemetery to pay homage. If the distance is too far, find a crossroad.Of course, some people who don't pay attention to it just set up a fire on the side of the road.
Like today, bumping into two of them at once is not considered good luck no matter how you think about it.
1551 said, "The day after tomorrow is the July [-]th Ghost Festival, but according to this world, the gate of ghosts has been opened since the fourteenth, and it is not closed until the sixteenth."
In other words, in more than half an hour, the ghost gate will open.
Li Yu was silent for a while, counting with his fingers how long his 49 [-] days were left, the more he broke, the more frustrated he became.
He had to make a quick decision, and if the next swarm of ghosts rushed out, he might not be able to get away.
But it was not until twelve o'clock, and he didn't dare to burn it blindly, so he could only push the shared bicycle to the side of the road and park it, and carried the paper man and the paper money and ingots he bought from the old lady before he left and put them on the ground , Holding the mobile phone and playing Xiaoxiaole.
The cheerful music did not improve the atmosphere, but instead attracted the dissatisfaction of the two people in the distance.
The two stood up together and yelled at this side, saying that he was disrespectful to the dead and had to be shut down immediately.
Li Yu had no choice but to turn off the background music that adjusted his mood aggrievedly, and put all his attention on the screen of the phone.
I don't know why, but the time passed very slowly. After playing two rounds, I glanced at the time at the top of the screen, and it was only 23:[-].
The two paper burners stopped burning halfway through the fire, and each squatted on the curb on one side to smoke.
Li Yu heard one of them on the phone, and the person on the other end of the phone should be blaming him for burning too early, and his relatives couldn't get the money.
The man stubbed out the cigarette impatiently, "Why are you so particular about it, can't it be enough if you want it?"
Upon hearing this, Li Yu knew that this person did not believe in ghosts and gods so much, otherwise he would not have a casual attitude of completing the task.
The other person was much more strange. He sat with his back to the road, facing the trees in the roadside green belt, muttering something in his mouth.
Li Yu asked the system to amplify the voice, and the chirping voice instantly amplified in his ears, "Dad, didn't you dream that it was cold down there last night? I wrote my birthday on one of the paper money. There is no mistake. You will definitely receive it. After you get the money, go and buy two thick clothes first, and when the gate of hell opens, you can wear new clothes to see us..."
Li Yu, "..."
The old man really helped him choose a good place.
The weather in summer is hot, and the nights are slightly cooler, especially the hours from midnight to four or five in the morning.
Feeling the slight cool breeze, Li Yu shrank his shoulders and put his legs together.
Behind them, several big trees were rustling by the wind, and even swayed a little, as if something passed through them.
Li Yu cheered up, stood up from the ground with his arms folded, and walked directly to a street lamp without even caring about the paper figurine.
The light fell from above, forming a ball of his shadow and sticking to the edge of the shoe, but soon, the shadow mutated.
There seemed to be a monster wrapped in his own shadow, it was struggling, stretched out a sharp claw, scratched the things blocking him, and then got out, getting bigger and bigger.
Li Yu felt that his feet were filled with lead again, and he couldn't move an inch.
The monster crawled out of the silhouetted shadow, like a mass of flowing pitch, black and emitting a pungent stench.
Li Yu was frightened and stupid. He found that the recent ghosts are really diverse, and they are less and less image-oriented.
He opened his mouth to call for help, but no sound could be squeezed out of his throat, and even breathing became difficult. He could only watch helplessly as the thing gradually stood up from the ground and stretched out its black claws.
Strange things happened.
When the claw was about to touch the young man's body, there was a sudden scream of pain, and he retreated several meters at once.
Li Yu froze for a moment, his eyes lit up, and he pressed his right shoulder with his backhand.
The place that Sheng Yiming pressed suddenly started to hurt again. He frowned slightly, his fingers penetrated into his collar, and he felt a deep tooth mark. There was no blood, but there were blood scabs.
After being bitten by the jealous ghost, he actually confirmed it, and there was nothing on his shoulder.
The boss is worthy of being a boss, he can create a dog gnawing picture with just one touch.
Thinking so in his heart, Li Yu was still very grateful in his heart, and at the same time silently admired that the goal this time was really as he said himself, all evils do not invade, it is completely a walking coward.
Just a residual breath can drive the ugly ghost back.
As long as he is there, my mother no longer has to worry about me being afraid of ghosts.
The little episode gave Li Yu great courage, and he glanced in the direction of Shadow Ghost.
It was staring at itself, but it didn't dare to approach it rashly, but lay down on the ground, waiting for the opportunity to move.
Li Yu disliked its ugly appearance and didn't want to look at it any more. He was about to lower his head and continue playing with his phone, but he didn't know if it was a coincidence when a call came in suddenly, it was a string of numbers.
He has typed this string of numbers twice, and the 4444 at the end is very eye-catching. Few bosses use such an unlucky number.
Li Yu squinted his eyes as he stared at the screen. Why didn't he find out earlier that the target was not a human being? He had read so many times in the previous few worlds, but he didn't have a long memory.
"Hello." He deliberately pretended not to know him, "Who are you looking for?"
The breathing on the other end of the receiver was obviously heavy. After a long time, Sheng Yiming said, "Mr. Ding, it's me."
"Oh, it's Mr. Sheng." Li Yu suddenly realized, and asked instead, "How did Mr. Sheng know my phone number?"
"Ask Mr. Tang." Sheng Yiming's voice was not friendly and gentle, and he gritted his teeth against the young man's alienated attitude. "Mr. Ding forgot something with me."
Li Yu was taken aback, "What?" subconsciously touched his pocket.
Fuck, left the key behind.
"The key." Sheng Yiming paused, and said inexplicably, "It seems that Mr. Ding hasn't returned home, so he doesn't know yet."
Ever since he knew the target's identity, Li Yu's trust in him had dropped to zero, and he now suspects that the key he left behind was the other party's tricks.
After all, the bunch of keys is in the trouser pocket, so it is not so easy to fall out.
Probably because he was silent for too long, the man spoke again, "Mr. Ding?"
Li Yu came back to his senses and said directly, "Yeah, I was delayed by something in the afternoon, and I have been outside all the time, and I haven't been able to go home until now."
"It's so late, what is Mr. Ding doing outside?" Sheng Yiming paused, "What trouble did you encounter?"
Li Yu rolled his eyes, and said yes, yes, big trouble, he is about to burn paper for a double-faced pie man, he is not happy or unexpected.
"It's a little trouble."
"Is there anything I can do for you?"
"Is it convenient for Mr. Sheng? If it's convenient, I'll send you the coordinates." Li Yu looked down at his toes and sighed, "I'm quite scared now. If you have time, can you come and accompany me?"
After a few more words, the two parties hung up the phone together as if they had rehearsed in advance.
1551 worried, "Why did you recruit him? Aren't you afraid of going crazy and killing you?"
"I'm afraid, I'm afraid of death." Li Yu teased, raising his eyes to look into the distance.
Like the neighborhood where Sheng Yiming lived, the road was foggy, rising layers upon layers, and at the same time brought an indescribable coldness.
He had a hunch that as twelve o'clock got closer, the fog would get thicker.
It reminded him of the chills on his body every time he bumped into a ghost, and the dim lights that were inexplicably blurred.
Are those things the same as these fogs?
So what exactly are these fogs?
The old lady said that Yang Qi makes people feel warm, while Yin Qi is just the opposite.
So these do not know where to come from, the overwhelming mist is Yin Qi, a tonic that allows the soul to walk in the world. His existence is to ghosts and ghosts, just like oxygen to human beings.
Seeing that the host did not respond for a long time, 1551 asked, "What's wrong with you?"
"Brother Yi, I now know what the target is." Li Yu said, "He is Yin Qi, but now I still don't know the reason for his generation, nor why he turned into Sheng Yiming."
1551, "You want to submit the answer?"
Li Yu thought for a while, then nodded, "Well, submit it."
He is confident in this answer.
This time the result came down very quickly, and in the blink of an eye, Li Yu had an extra light screen in front of his eyes.
In the [Target Secret] column, all the small golden chrysanthemums were lit up.
Halfway through the task, Li Yu was both happy and melancholy, because he knew nothing about the past of the task target.
1551 asked, "I know that when you called the target, you actually wanted to observe and test it in person. But now that the target's secret has been revealed, can you tell him to go back?"
"No." The system is only half right, the other half is that he is really a little scared and needs to hang up to give him courage.
The mist on the road was misty, and as time passed, it began to spread around.
Not only Li Yu, but even the two strangers who were waiting for the ghost door to open began to feel weak and moved closer to the young man.
Li Yu stood still, pretending to be calm, and took out the phone again, adding Sheng Yiming's number to contacts, but he was still unwilling to put down the phone.
After struggling for a few seconds, he turned his back and called the audience.
The old man actually didn't sleep, he was very energetic when he heard the voice, and he didn't feel sleepy.
Li Yu cut to the chase, "Old man, do you know that today is the 25th of July, and in [-] minutes it will be the [-]th of July?"
The old man was sitting on the rocking chair looking at the stars, biting his golden nanmu pipe, and said frankly, "I know, that's why I let you go, in case your paper figurine can really calm him down, he Wouldn't it be nice to be able to leave directly from the ghost gate?"
What a fart, before the gate of ghosts opened, Li Yu could already feel the shadows of ghosts.
He tightened his grip on the phone and said, "Mr., I'm so scared by myself. I called Mr. Sheng to accompany me."
The temple master thought that his ears were out of order, and his voice was so loud that it split, "What?!"
Li Yu repeated it, and then he heard a creak on the other end of the phone. The old man seemed to get up from his chair and was pacing back and forth impatiently.
"You said that Mr. has a special constitution. As long as he is around, I won't be afraid."
The voice on the other end of the phone was so clear that it was almost naive, no, he was an idiot, and what troubled him the most was that Sheng Yiming agreed to the young man's request and accompanied him to burn paper figurines for himself.
Isn't this what's wrong?
The more the temple master thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong, and the speed of pacing became faster and faster. After walking a few times, he suddenly stopped, "Ding Lian, let Sheng Yiming go back, don't let him come over."
Li Yu didn't seem to understand the worry in the other party's tone, so he asked, "Why? Mr. Sheng will be here soon."
Guan advocated opening his mouth, finally let out a hi, and yelled loudly, "I'm afraid he will harm you, he is not a good thing."
At the same time as the voice fell, there was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone.
When the voice came again, the temple master froze, and he raised the corners of his mouth in an embarrassing way, "Mr. Sheng."
Sheng Yiming's voice was light and ethereal, but cold as ice, "The Lord said, why am I not a good person?"
The Lord of the Temple, "..."
Li Yu, "..."
In fact, he was just chatting with an expert, raising his courage, and asking other questions by the way.
He stared at the back of the man's head sadly, and said to the system, "It's over, the temple master will definitely be warned, and it will be difficult to ask again."
1551 was puzzled, "Didn't you already know the secret? What else do you want to ask?"
Li Yu's face turned red, and he hesitated to say two words.
system,"……"
It pretended to cough a few times, "It's the same if you ask again later, after all, it will take time to develop to that point."
"I don't think so." Li Yu said, "Whether people and ghosts understand different ways, I'm afraid I will be sucked tonight."
1551, "Then you want to open some."
Li Yu, "..."
He has long seen that Brother Yi has a low EQ even if he installs an emotional module, and he is so patterned in comforting others, he doesn't care about it.
After chattering on the other end of the phone for a while, Sheng Yiming finally said, "Mr. Ding and I will come to see you on Saturday."
The temple master almost cried after hearing this, and said with a forced smile, "Okay, okay, warm welcome."
Sheng Yiming hung up the phone, put the mobile phone in the young man's hand, and glanced at the two middle-aged men standing behind the young man.
He pursed his lower lip, glanced at the paper figurine standing against the tree trunk, his eyes rested on its face, and his tone was inexplicably tinged with joy, "Why didn't you draw the facial features?"
Li Yu suddenly felt guilty, "Isn't this very good, after receiving it, you can knead your facial features at will."
Sheng Yiming took a deep look at the young man and smiled, "Good idea."
The two elder brothers who hid there chuckled and joked, "This idea is quite fresh, next time I burn paper figurines for my father, I will order them like this."
Another person also thought it was feasible and echoed.
The four of them stood silently on the side of the road for a few minutes, and saw cars coming from four directions at the intersection one after another, also coming to burn paper.
Li Yu took a step back, raised his head slightly and put his head close to the man's ear, and said, "It seems that what the temple master said is right, this place is really a good place to pay homage to burning paper."
"These two roads are in the right direction." After Sheng Yiming finished speaking, he suddenly pressed the young man's right shoulder and stepped back, while clasping his five fingers calmly.
Li Yu clearly felt that the man's nails pierced the fabric and sank into his shoulder.
But when he turned his head and looked over, his hands had slender fingers, round nails, and were as beautiful and white as plaster sculptures.
Looking back a little, there was no abnormality on the shoulder, but it began to hurt slightly, sharply, as if something was drilling in, and at the same time, an inexplicable coldness rushed into the body.
Li Yu shivered, and just about to hug his arms tightly, a hot coat was put on him.
The coat was stained with the man's body temperature and the light sandalwood fragrance.
Li Yu turned his back, took a deep breath where the man couldn't see, and tasted with his eyes closed, the faint smell of burnt wood penetrated into his nostrils.
His brain was out of control, and he began to worry about what happened to Sheng Yiming. Did he become "Sheng Yiming" from the beginning, or was he possessed by a newly dead person just like himself.
I remember Tang and Song said that Sheng Yiming went abroad for treatment for a full year because of illness.
Could it be that "Sheng Yiming" was dead at that time, and the mission goal was to go abroad for treatment so that he could better integrate himself with his body?
"It's twelve o'clock." Sheng Yiming's voice suddenly sounded.
Li Yu came back to his senses, took out his phone and took a look, sure enough, it was exactly [-]:[-]:[-].
The next second after putting away the mobile phone, there was movement on the asphalt road under the night, the leaves moved automatically without wind, and very faint shadows passed under the street lights, fleeting.
Li Yu looked at the two strange men standing not far from him. They just shivered when the sound of the leaves sounded, and they didn't react because they didn't see anything.
The two returned to where they were before, and then took out the paper money and paper ingots to be burned from the car, and quickly started a fire again.
Sheng Yiming stood quietly behind the young man, with both hands in his trouser pockets, looking at the young man's black hair indifferently.
Li Yu shivered, and looked back subconsciously, just in time to meet the man's gaze.
Only then did Sheng Yiming speak, "What do you need my help for?"
Li Yu pursed his lips, "It's actually a small thing, accompany me to burn something for a friend."
"The paper man?"
"Yeah." Li Yu responded, turned around and walked under the tree, and fell back again, "Forget it, today is not a good day, so don't burn it."
Sheng Yiming walked towards him, grabbed the young man by the shoulder, and turned him in a different direction.
"It's all here, let's go after burning."
"..." Li Yu never knew that the panacea of "everything is coming" can still be used in this situation.
He had no choice but to bite the bullet and walk towards the paper figurine.
I have to say that the faceless paper man is in good condition in every aspect except for his face. His narrow waist and long legs, and his clothes fit the modern trend. It can be seen that the old lady put her heart into making it.
Li Yu picked up the paper man in one go and walked to the crossroads.
Besides him, there were already a dozen people squatting on the ground and starting to burn things. Black smoke rose up, dimming the lights on both sides of the road.
Li Yu glanced at the man standing behind him who had already walked over, "Mr. Sheng, do you have a lighter?"
Sheng Yiming smiled strangely, his eyes were deep, "Are you asking me?"
Li Yu, "No? Then I'll go find someone else."
Sheng Zhiming pressed the young man's shoulder and fixed him in place, "I have."
With slender fingers, he took the lighter out of his trouser pocket and handed it to the young man. When he was done, he patted the back of the other's neck, and the corners of his lips twitched, "Go."
Li Yu was stunned, can he bear it like this?
He gripped the lighter tightly and burned it as soon as he said it. At the same time, he burned it together, as well as the paper money he bought from the old lady, all of which were tens of billions of super-huge bills.
Looking at the burnt paper money, Sheng Yiming raised his eyebrows slightly, "Mr. Ding has a good relationship with that friend?"
"No, he always scares me." Li Yu complained, and then changed the topic, "But he also saved me, so I am very grateful to him."
Sheng Yiming, "How grateful are you?"
Li Yu, "Unspeakable degree."
Sheng Yiming, "It's better to promise each other with your body."
With a ding, a new prop dropped.
Li Yu didn't have time to check, so he frowned and stared at the man in front of him, "Mr. Sheng is joking?"
"It's not a joke." Sheng Yiming walked around behind the young man, pressed both hands on the other's shoulders at the same time, and pressed his chin against the depression of the other's shoulder and neck.
That place seemed tailor-made for him, he could kiss his collarbone when he lowered his head, and he could smell the fragrance of youth shampoo when he tilted his head.
Li Yu couldn't move, and his whole body tensed up.
Sheng Yiming smiled close to his ear, "Look, if you don't believe me."
Following the direction of the man's finger, Li Yu saw facial features showing on the unobstructed white face of the paper man.
Black hair, eyebrows, eyes, eyelashes, a straight nose bridge and a small red mouth, the chin is also slightly sharpened, as if an invisible hand is rubbing it little by little.
And what made his hair stand on end the most was that that face was exactly the same as his current one.
The head on his shoulders tilted slightly, and the breath sprayed on the skin of his side neck.
Li Yu heard the man ask in a hoarse voice, "Did you see that, he doesn't want paper figurines, he wants you."
