Onmyo Ghost Hunter

It was the first time in my life that I saw a real dead person, and it was my mother.

I had never seen a funeral when I was a child. Grandpa forbade it, and there were dead bodies in the river. People from the village went to watch the fun. Grandpa also guarded me and refused to let me go.

The mother's mouth was open, and her face was full of horror, her eyeballs were protruding, as if she had seen something extremely terrifying, and she was very unwilling to die.

I fell to the ground, and the cry had already caught Master Man's attention. After a while, he seemed to be ten years older, turned his head with a gloomy face, looked at me, and said:

"Whoever asked you to come in, hurry to school!"

Seeing my mother's terrifying expression, her eyes staring at me, I felt dizzy in my head, and my whole body was in a state of confusion. Man Ye's voice was very loud, but it became very small when it reached my ears. He didn't move on the ground, Man Ye came down, stretched out his hand and tapped on my head, and I suddenly woke up.

"I... my father."

My head was buzzing, and the tears in my eyes had already fallen silently. I glanced at the bedroom, only to find that it was very messy inside, with chairs scattered all over the place, and there were some yellow talismans on the ground. I wiped my tears, feeling unwilling He ran out and looked around, but he still didn't find his father. Where did he go after such a big thing happened!

Only at this time did I think of my father, the man who carried the whole family. Perhaps, he is my only pillar now.

When I walked back into the bedroom, apart from the silence, there was also a choking smell of smoke. Man Ye stood up, holding a cigarette in his hand, and pulled me to wipe away the tears from the corners of my eyes. Opened the mouth and said:

"I'm afraid your father is more than auspicious."

"Why, it was fine last night, why did something happen?"

My voice is a little choked, I don't understand why this happened, my father told me to be careful last night, how could something happen, and last night was obviously a family dinner, my mother made me How could my favorite potato die?I glanced to the side again and saw my mother's body, and my head was shocked again and I became dizzy. This is real!

"Did you take something out last night?"

Man Ye flicked the cigarette ash in his hand, looked at me with a livid face, a gleam shot out of his eyes, looking into his eyes, I suddenly felt a little timid, a feeling of embarrassment, I thought about it carefully, touched Touching my chest, the warm jade inside reminded me, is it because of the jade pendant?

Seeing my actions, Man Ye dispersed the people in the bedroom, closed the door, and directly pulled off my military jacket. The ancestral jade pendant dangled on my chest. When he saw the jade pendant, Man Ye's expression became unbelievable, and he finally fell down. Beside my grandpa's bed, looking at me very strangely.

"My father said that he wanted me to take good care of this jade pendant."

I tried my best to calm down and said in a deep voice.

"Your mother, your grandfather, and even your missing father died because of this jade pendant."

Man Ye was dejected and sighed, as if he was talking to himself.

"Jade pendant? Could it be that someone wanted to steal this jade pendant and kill my family? Impossible, I have seen my mother, she was not injured, could it be poisoned? My grandfather..."

I suddenly thought of my grandpa, and immediately walked to the bed, I pulled the sheet, grandpa’s eyes were tightly closed, his face was dark, but I saw a dark palm print on his neck, which happened to be on his throat The position where the handprint is already embedded in the flesh, could it be that my grandfather was strangled to death?

I was very angry. Grandpa was sick in bed. Who would be so cruel to attack a helpless old man?

"Yuan'er, you are also in the third year of high school, and now you are alone, so I have to tell you some things."

Just when I was guessing, Man Ye suddenly spoke, the cigarette in his hand had burned out, he took out another one, held it in his mouth, lit the match, and started to smoke, his face was complicated looking at me.

I didn't say anything, I touched the jade pendant in my arms, if it was really caused by this jade pendant, I would rather not have it.

"Your father and your grandfather are both ghost hunters, and the jade pendant in your hand is also from your ancestors. At the beginning, my elder brother, your grandfather, and I were taught by our father. Unfortunately, I don't have this talent. I don't want to do this job, and later the jade pendant was passed on to my eldest brother. When the elder brother was young, he was very famous, but he also provoked many enemies. He has always relied on the jade pendant to suppress them, so the enemies dare not come to the door, but yesterday Tonight you took this piece of ancestral jade and left, and the enemies came to the door, and the eldest brother fought with them last night, but his lifespan was over, and it turned out..."

As he spoke, Man Ye's voice choked up, and at the same time he pointed to the side.

I looked at the yellow talismans on the ground, some of them were half burnt, and some were completely intact. I suddenly understood something in my heart. They really all died because of me. I... I killed my family!

It was obviously hard, but I couldn't cry.

"Is it all because of this guy? I'm going to drop it!"

I tore off the jade pendant on my chest and stood up, but unexpectedly, I was held back by Man Ye. He wiped away his tears and said:

"Even if it wasn't for it, your grandpa won't live long. His lifespan is over and he is no longer able to deal with his enemies. I don't know where they are evil spirits. After finishing the funeral, go to the big city and find your uncle."

"Master Man, are you really kidding me? Do you really think that the evil spirit killed my grandfather?"

I stared at Man Ye, there was such a dark handprint on my grandfather's throat, it was obviously strangled to death, and I had heard of the ghost hunter he said before, could it be that grandfather is really such a person?Isn't the knowledge he told me when I was a child just to coax me to play?

Man Ye sighed, knocked on my head again, and said:

"A ghost strangled him to death."
