"How to use it?" Chen Dasheng looked up at Chen Xiaoli.

Chen Xiaoli took the compass and pointed to the one in the middle of the compass, "Do you see if there is a spirit around? If there is a spirit around, the needle will rotate by itself and point to the direction of the spirit."

"and then?"

Chen Dasheng looked at the quiet magnetic needle. What Chen Xiaoli said, Chen Dasheng had seen it in many TV dramas, so he didn't find it strange, just purely curious.

Chen Xiaoli shrugged, and put the compass away, "Then? Then there is no more. The third uncle passed this thing to me. It has been so many years, and I haven't seen it moved. It can be used as a compass at most."

"Let me just say, there are no ghosts in this world at all. If there really are such things, I'm afraid there will be a lot of ghosts!" Chen Dasheng said with some disappointment.

"You can't say that? We haven't seen it, so it doesn't mean there must be!" Chen Xiaoli patted Chen Dasheng on the shoulder, "I remember my third uncle told me that after death, everything is settled, but there are some very special ones who are blessed by nature. , can become a Yin spirit, but there are very few of those things, and not one person can be lucky enough to see them. Moreover, all of those things are powerful existences, and some of them are no less powerful than human monks. let."

Chen Dasheng was taken aback, "You mean, all we can discover are powerful Yin spirits?"

Chen Xiaoli nodded, "That's right, Yin Ling can be regarded as a different kind. You can think of it as the thoughts after Chengren's death. Once these things are formed, they can be cultivated very quickly without the constraints of the physical body. There is nothing surprising, but in our age, in such a harsh environment, it must be much more difficult to produce ghosts than in ancient times."

"It's so mysterious, but you just heard it, and you haven't seen it before." Chen Dasheng pouted.

Chen Xiaoli smiled, "I haven't seen it, but someone has seen it!"

"Who?" Chen Dasheng was taken aback, his brows were full of doubts.

"Third Uncle!" Chen Xiaoli said.

"Third Uncle has seen a ghost?" Chen Dasheng raised his voice by a decibel, "Could it be Third Uncle who fooled you?"

"What are you talking about?" Chen Xiaoli rolled his eyes and said to Chen Dasheng, "Third Uncle told me that he once encountered a ghost with the strength of a seven or eighth-level martial artist, but the specific circumstances are different. Didn't tell me the details."

"Isn't that the same as not saying it? Who knows if it's true or not?" Chen Dasheng was very interested in listening, but unfortunately there was no story.

Hearing this, Chen Xiaoli couldn't help cursing with a smile, "It's troublesome if those things get on them, and it's too late for others to hide. You still want to find one to take a look, so don't mess with it in the future."

"Aren't I curious?" Who knew there was such a way, even if he learned the spirit detection technique, he couldn't figure out whether there are ghosts in this world. Chen Dasheng shrugged helplessly, with a faint smile on his face. disappointment.

"Play by yourself, I was woken up by you early in the morning, I'll go back to sleep!" Chen Xiaoli yawned, ignored Chen Dasheng, raised the notebook in his hand, and walked to his room, "This thing first Where did you put it, I’ll take a look when I’m free.”

"Old sister, please cut your hair. I almost scared me to death just now. I thought I encountered a ghost." Chen Dasheng said to Chen Xiaoli. He had already recorded the things in the notebook. It's useless to use it in your mind, so why not let Chen Xiaoli study it.

Rongcheng, Liu's villa.

A big round table, the whole family gathered around to have lunch, sitting next to Liu Rongfa was an old man in a military overcoat. The old man was about 70 or [-] years old, with gray temples, but his figure was very straight, his eyes were hale and hearty, and he was kind. There is a three-point majesty in it.

The old man's eyes scanned the table, and finally fell on Liu Xiaomin who was chewing slowly, "Xiaomin girl, why are you laughing after eating?"

The eyes of the people at the table were all focused on Liu Xiaomin, and Liu Xiaomin could only see a smile on the corner of his mouth from time to time, his eyes were blurred, obviously distracted, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

The old man's words did not bring Liu Xiaomin back to his senses. Yu Shuang, who was sitting next to Liu Xiaomin, quickly touched Liu Xiaomin's elbow, and said in a low voice, "Xiao Min, grandpa is asking you something!"

"Ah?" After being touched by Yu Shuang, Liu Xiaomin woke up with a start. When she looked up, everyone at the table looked at her with strange eyes, and suddenly said to the old man sitting in the upper seat in a panic and bewilderment, "Grandpa ,What did you say?"

This old man is Liu Xiaomin's grandfather Liu Tong, the old chief of the Rongcheng Military District. The Liu family's current status in Rongcheng is not only due to the efforts of the Liu family brothers, but also thanks to Liu Tong's relationship.

"You kid, you've been distracted while eating, did something good happen to you? Say it, and grandpa will be happy too!" Liu Tong didn't think it was disobedient, but asked Liu Xiaomin curiously.

"Huh? I, that, it's nothing!" Liu Xiaomin's eyes dodged, and he hesitated.

"Grandpa asked you a question, answer it carefully!" Liu Rongfa immediately straightened his face when he heard it.

"It's all right!" Liu Xiaomin lowered her head a little shyly.

"Hey, I know what's going on!" Liu Xiaomin didn't say anything, but Liu Hao smiled shyly.

"Did I ask you?"

As soon as Liu Hao's words came out of his mouth, he was scolded by Liu Xiaomin in a cold voice. Liu Hao turned his face and saw Liu Xiaomin staring at him with murderous eyes.

"At the dinner table, don't be unruly!" The two siblings have never dealt with each other, usually Liu Rongfa doesn't care about them, but now in front of the old man, they can't tolerate their mischief.

As soon as the old man spoke, Liu Xiaomin could only bury his head in resentment, and pouted his mouth to eat his own food.

With the support of his father, Liu Hao immediately became unscrupulous. He grinned proudly at Liu Xiaomin, and then turned to Liu Tongdao in a serious manner, "Grandpa, spring is coming, everything is recovering, and animals are starting to grow." Courtship, according to my experience, this is a sign of spring, old lady!"

"Okay, you are looking for a fight!" As soon as these words came out, Liu Xiaomin became furious, and almost threw the chopsticks at Liu Hao with one stroke.

Liu Hao was startled, shrank his neck back, almost knocked over the bowl, put on a protective posture, and said to Liu Xiaomin, "Don't deny it, I've been watching you for the past two days It's normal, not only often distracted, but also snickering from time to time, a typical little girl thinking about spring, can I still get it wrong?"

"You!" Liu Xiaomin was ashamed and angry. If her mother hadn't been in the way, she would have stepped forward and started beating her.

"Okay, stop messing around!" Liu Tong waved his hand, stopped the fight between the two, and asked Liu Xiaomin with a smile on his face, "Girl Xiaomin, are you in love again?"

"Where is it!" Liu Xiaomin replied coyly, her face was covered with red clouds.

Everyone at the table looked at Liu Xiaomin's appearance, with knowing smiles on their faces, even the blind could tell that this girl was obviously lying.

"Tell grandpa, who is that boy? You're already old, why are you so shy?" Liu Tong asked with a smile.

"No, grandpa, rats are talking nonsense!" Liu Xiaomin felt uncomfortable all over. Although she usually acted intellectually and forcefully, when it came to feelings, she was shy like never before, let alone in front of the big family. .

"I'm talking nonsense? Brother Sheng came back two days ago, don't think that I don't know, you must be thinking about spring." Liu Hao said a little unhappy when he heard Liu Xiaomin say that he was talking nonsense.

"Stinky boy, tell me again, I won't tear your mouth off!" Liu Xiaomin was angry with embarrassment, she had nothing to do with other people, could it be that she had nothing to do with Liu Hao, her eyes widened, her pretty face turned ferocious up.

"Brother Sheng? Who is this Brother Sheng?" Liu Tong asked with some doubts after hearing the words.

Liu Rongfa was sitting next to the old man, and hurriedly whispered a few words in the old man's ear. He didn't know what he said. A trace of surprise flashed in the old man's hale and hearty eyes, and then he became happy again, and couldn't help it. He patted the table, and said to Liu Xiaomin, "This is a good thing, girl Xiaomin, sometime, bring that young man home so that grandpa can take a good look at it."

"Grandpa!" Liu Xiaomin coquettishly and anxiously said, "It's not what you think." (To be continued.)
