Chapter 9 Possession
  I was suddenly startled and immediately let go of the other person's hand.

But the beautiful woman's expression became more and more confused. There was only doubt in her eyes, but no dodge:
  "What the hell are you doing?!"

"If you don't say anything, I'll call someone!"

The beautiful woman seemed to suddenly remember something, and she reached into her pocket. When she found something empty, she suddenly became anxious:
  "Did you take my money?!"

"I know, you must know that I went back to my parents' house today and squatted here just to steal money!"

"Help, help!"

The woman's scream suddenly spread far away, echoing throughout the mountain road.

The second uncle looked a little anxious, but suddenly, as if he suddenly realized:
  "I understand, our brains were restricted by Wu Laosan's previous soul leaving the body."

"The body is stiff and cold. This situation is not just caused by the soul leaving the body. It can also be caused by ghost possession!"

Possessed by a ghost? !

The wet chill coming from my clothes made me shiver for no reason.

The second uncle raised his voice, quickly stopped the woman who was still calling for help, and asked:

"Did you hear someone calling your name when you were passing by a mass grave, and then you turned your head several times, and then you didn't know anything?!"

The woman was originally very excited. When her second uncle said this, she suddenly seemed to be mute. After stopping, she thought about it carefully and said after a long time:

".It seems like something like this happened."

"I came home today. I was supposed to go with my man, but we had a quarrel in the morning. I was so angry that I took the red envelope and walked out."

"When I was walking on the mountain trail, I heard someone calling me 'Xiaohong', 'Xiaohong'. I thought it must be my man, but when I heard it carefully, it sounded like a woman. I was a little surprised who called me, so I turned around. And found out there wasn’t any.”

"I walked further and heard the sound again. When I looked back, there was still nothing."

Xiaohong shuddered, and I was a little curious:
  "Then why are you lying here and looking back three times in a row?"

Only when he turned his head three times in a row and all three Yang Fires on his shoulders were extinguished could he be so easily invaded by evil spirits.

After hearing this, Xiaohong had some doubts in her eyes:
  "How did you know?"

My second uncle and I looked at each other and told my guess exactly, but Xiaohong had a look of disbelief:
  "How is that possible? What age is it? Are you still haunted?"

"Did you go to college? Have you received higher education?"

"I have read books, don't try to lie to me!"

"And what about the money I have on me? Don't tell me that someone is actually haunting me. Why are you going to all this trouble just for the thousands of dollars I have?!"

Of course it can't be for thousands of dollars, but the other party is for an ugly little paper man.

But when I say it, let alone the other person who doesn’t believe it, even I don’t believe it.

The two of us were arguing, but there was rustling noise not far away. Several people shouted Xiaohong's name all the way along the mountain road.

These people were obviously Xiaohong's natal brothers and husband. After hearing the shouting, Xiaohong quickly got up from the ground, threw herself into the arms of a young man and cried loudly.

After just saying a few words, the young man became excited and raised his fists to attack his second uncle.

The second uncle's negotiations were fruitless, so he could only apologize and pay all the money lost to the woman to others. This matter would be considered over.

I originally wanted to reason, but my second uncle dragged me all the way home.

I was a little dissatisfied. As soon as I entered the house, I started scolding my second uncle:
  "Second uncle! She originally spent this money, and if we hadn't burned the money and asked the paper man to lead us to find someone, she would have been reincarnated by now."

"How can you still pay her out of your own pocket?!"

I originally thought that my second uncle would say something like taking a step back to open up the world and endure the calm for a while. I never imagined that my second uncle curled his lips and said:
  "Look at the seven people on the other side, six strong young men, one old and one young. Who can we beat?"

After saying that, we both fell into deep thought.

After a long time, the second uncle said:
  "Forget it. If you are wandering around in the world, there will be gains and losses. Just treat it as if you were robbed today."

"It's better to worry about that paper man now, that's the more urgent thing."

"God bless you, don't let that ghost possess the paper man and do evil now, otherwise, it will really harm you!"

My second uncle's words made my heart skip a beat. At this moment, I had a flash of inspiration and thought of something:
  "That sister named Xiaohong, what happened at the mass grave, snatched my paper figurine, and returned to the mass grave. That ghost must be someone from the mass grave. No, a ghost. Plus Xiao The voice that Sister Hong told her to turn around sounded like a female ghost."

"How about we go into the mass graves and look through the tombstones. Maybe we can find the graves and the paper figures?"

After hearing my words, the second uncle shook his head and sighed:

"How can it be so easy! This mass grave is at least hundreds of years old. The number of new and old tombs combined is at least several thousand. In the past, during the war, there were so many tombstones that they could just find a hole and bury them casually. If it were so easy, it would be If you find it, it’s no longer called a mass grave.”

"And that thing has a paper figurine. If you want to put it away, put it in the coffin!"

"Can we still dig up all the graves?"

The second uncle’s words made my skin crawl all over the floor. I was confused and confused for a moment, but the second uncle said:
  "It's okay. Second uncle will find a way for you."

This idea lasted two days. During these two days, the second uncle often walked through the mass graves carrying various tools, leaving early and returning late.

But before the second uncle could gain anything, the ghost who bought my paper figurine showed up first.

That day I was sitting in the shop chopping bamboo again, and not long after my second uncle left, I heard a sharp, thin voice coming from outside the house:

"Abai.Abai"

Almost instantly, I recognized the owner of the voice. He was the one who came to the store that day to look at the dirty stuff wrapped in paper.

I immediately stood up with my bamboo splitting knife and rushed out of the house without looking back.

The first thing I saw was the little paper figure lying outside the courtyard fence, floating in the wind.

It’s the ugly paper man made by me!

I held the knife and wanted to step forward and chop the paper man into pieces, but the paper man was extremely agile and jumped directly to the roof of the shop, holding on to the thatch tightly and not letting go.

This obviously exceeded the IQ that the paper man should have, and I blurted out almost instantly:

"Female ghost!"

"Are you possessed by my paper figurine?!"

A smile appeared on the paper man's colorless face.

That smile appeared on the crooked paper face I drew, and it seemed a bit permeable inexplicably:
  "Yes"

"Although this paper man is not good-looking, it is really much more comfortable than before."

The paper man's head swayed from side to side and seemed to be looking at me with interest:
  "Your dear second uncle, you are still looking for me in the mass graves these days."

"You two idiots don't know that now that I have a paper man, I don't need to stay in the mass grave. I can appear in the clear sky in the daytime, hahahaha."

The second uncle's voice came coldly from outside the courtyard:
  "You idiot, who are you scolding?"

The paper man's laughter stopped abruptly.
