Mystery Leaks

Chapter 18 It's Back
"I see it, it's back...I see it, it's back..."

He Lao Yao lay on the ground curled up into a ball, repeating these words non-stop, trembling all over, and fell into a boundless nightmare.

"What's back?" I asked aloud.

He Laoyao was shocked, and suddenly got up from the ground and grabbed me, screaming in horror: "Ghost! Ghost! It's a ghost!! It's back!! It's back!"

After yelling, he went to grab others and pushed them away, "Run, run, run for your life!!"

Everyone was frightened by his crazy appearance and backed away. Old He grabbed a few times but failed to catch anyone, so he ran away yelling like crazy.

Everyone looked at his retreating back and looked at each other for a moment.

"Is this...crazy?" Some people were frightened. The village has not been peaceful recently, and superstitious people murmured in their hearts.

"The brain meridian is wrong, why bother?" Some people didn't believe it.

"Let his family be sent to a mental hospital. What if something happens to this madman?" Someone said kindly.

As soon as the words fell, as if to confirm his words, someone in the distance suddenly shouted: "Come and save people, He Laojiao fell into the river!"

With a "Hula", the crowd rushed towards the river again.

……

It is true that He Lao Yao fell into the river, but he found it quickly and did not drown. Afterwards, his family sent him to the hospital and gave him a tranquilizer injection before he calmed down.

I felt uneasy. If it was before, I would think he was crazy like others, but I have come into contact with more and more things, and I am not sure.

He Lao Yao was indeed a bit nervous, but he was always quiet, and suddenly he was so hysterical, he must have been stimulated by something.

He said it was a ghost!

I have never seen a ghost, and I am more afraid of ghosts instinctively. At least the fake corpse can still see the appearance, but ghosts are too mysterious, and unknown things are always frightening.

I talked about this issue with Huang Mao before, and he didn't care about cheating corpses, but when he mentioned ghosts, his face became more serious.

Obviously, the two do not seem to be on the same level.

I immediately called Huang Mao and told about He Laojiao's affairs. Huang Mao's tone really became solemn, and said: "It's better to believe it than to believe it. Don't go out at night."

I responded, and then asked suspiciously, "Can ghosts show up in broad daylight?"

The youngest He just suddenly went into hysteria in the afternoon, he must have been stimulated just now, it doesn't make sense that he was stimulated last night, and he didn't go crazy until the afternoon.

"Ghosts don't show up during the day. What they see may be ghosts or something else. They can't say a few words clearly. In short, be careful." Huang Mao said, and after finishing speaking, he gave a few more words and hung up.

Putting down the phone, I felt uneasy, He Lao Yao was so frightened, the matter must not be simple, and what he said was "it came back", which means that he has seen it before, and something happened that made him extremely afraid.

He was nagging, maybe it was the root cause of his illness caused by being frightened.And Feng Deliang, I have always had a strong intuition that he did not commit suicide.

I couldn't figure it out, so I tried to call Chen Laogen again, but I still couldn't get through, which also made me depressed. I had a good call and sent me a text message a few days ago, why couldn't I get through?No matter how troublesome things are, it's okay to keep a phone call, right?

All afternoon, my heart was up and down, and I always felt that something was going to happen, something big was going to happen! !

……

The story of Mr. He spread quickly in the village, saying everything. Although many people didn't believe it, they all acted in the same way. When it got dark, everyone consciously closed their doors and closed their homes and never went out again. .

Rumors and fears continued to spread in the village, to the point where children stopped crying.I also prepared early, closed the doors and windows while the sky was still bright, and prepared to spend the night.

But at this moment, my mobile phone vibrated suddenly, and I was surprised when I picked it up, Chen Laogen!

Your sister, I couldn't get through just now, but now I'm calling by myself.

Pressing the answer button, Chen Laogen couldn't wait to ask: "Did He Laoyou go crazy today?"

I originally had a lot of questions, but I was blocked for a while, so I answered him first, and Chen Laogen said: "You must save him!"

"What... what?" I was stunned, and said, "Is he in danger?"

"He saw something he shouldn't have seen, and he will die tonight!" Chen Laogen said anxiously, "Listen, go to your grandfather's cemetery immediately, pick up some peach pits with red threads, and go to He Laoyao's place at night , tie it up with a red thread and hang it behind the doors and windows, and watch him until the rooster wakes up in the morning.”

As soon as I heard it, I was in chaos.Chen Laogen was so sure that He Laomao had seen something he shouldn't have seen, that he was the ghost of He Laomao's hysteria?

Moreover, that ghost will go to harm He Laomao tonight?

My whole body is cold, there is no time to hide from this kind of thing, Chen Laogen actually wants me to go, it cost the Qing family's life! !

"I...can I do it?" I instinctively wanted to back down, what a joke, to deal with those ghosts and evil spirits, it would be nice if I didn't get scared to death first.

"He Laojiao can't die, hurry up, it will be too late!" Chen Laogen was impatient.

I was all hairy, and to tell the truth, Chen Laogen left me in a dangerous scene twice, and he had already developed a certain degree of guard against him. I don't know if it will happen again this time.

After thinking for a while, I immediately asked, "Why did you place my grandfather's grave in Peach Grove?"

This question is very important. If Chen Laogen really wants to harm my grandpa and me, he can't go there tonight. If not, then contact Huang Mao.

Now Huang Mao is more trustworthy than Chen Laogen.

Chen Laogen obviously paused, and said: "I didn't order that acupuncture point, it was requested by your grandfather during his lifetime."

"What, how could this be?" I was taken aback.

"Your grandpa is knowledgeable!" Chen Laogen said, and immediately hung up the phone, obviously avoiding this topic.

Listening to the blind tone on the phone, I stood there in a daze.

Grandpa knows what to do?He can do legal affairs?Why do I never know?Also no one ever told me?

In my impression, my grandfather is a retired teacher who knows how to do the handicrafts of a bamboo craftsman.

This is completely incompatible with Chen Laogen, Magu and other people who practice legal affairs.

Instinctively, I thought of what Feng Jiantou said at the cemetery. He said that the bad luck in the village was caused by my grandfather.

Could it be... Grandpa really has a side that I don't know about?
In the 20 years since he left the village, he never talked about those years. Now that he thinks about it, it seems that he can vaguely match it.

If Chen Laogen is not lying, then what is my grandpa planning?Knowing that under the peach blossom tree is a very dangerous place, but you want to bury yourself under the peach blossom tree?
Most importantly, those peach blossom trees were planted by him.Huang Mao also said that the arrangement of those peach trees faintly formed a gossip, which was arranged by people who know how to do it.

I was in a state of confusion for a moment, if only Chen Laogen said this, I would think he was lying to excuse himself, but with Huang Mao and Feng Jiantou added, my heart was shaken.

After thinking about it, I immediately called Huang Mao, but the phone rang, but no one answered, I don't know what he was doing.

I was in a hurry. Seeing that the sky was getting dark, I couldn’t take care of so much anymore. I immediately rode on a motorcycle and rushed to the old house. Huang Mao gave me two peach pits with red silk, but they were definitely not enough. There are two doors at the front and back of the hospital ward. Two windows, at least four.

The motorcycle drove all the way, and soon arrived at the peach forest. Grandpa’s cemetery was still the same as it had been rested before. I paused, and immediately went to the haystack under the peach tree to look for peach pits.

This peach grove has not been taken care of since the grandfather passed away. There are many peach pits left after the fruit rotted, but there are very few peach pits with red silk.

I searched for a long time and only managed to get three. Seeing that I was running out of time, I went back immediately. When I got home, I took the two that Huangmao had given me with me, grabbed a handful of red threads, and hurried to the township health center.

When we arrived at the health center, the last rosy clouds in the sky also darkened, and night fell.

I rushed in to look for it, and soon found He Laoyao. The country people basically prescribe some medicine for minor illnesses and take it at home. They are rarely hospitalized. If it is really serious, they will be transferred to the big hospital in the county.

So the only ward with lights on in the hospital is where He Lao Yao lives.

The youngest He was lying on the hospital bed, as if he had fallen asleep. His son was sitting on the edge of the hospital bed with a sad face watching over him. Seeing that I was a little surprised, he asked, "Boss Meng, who is this?"

I instinctively made up a reason and said, "Well, I feel uncomfortable these days, and I dare not sleep at home."

It's better not to talk to him about gods and ghosts, I need help, if I scare him away, I will be even more alone.

The youngest son of He nodded and said, "That's right. You live alone now. If something happens and you don't even have a caretaker, it's better to go to the health center. There is a doctor on duty at night, and we have company at night."

I smiled, handed him a cigarette, lit it, and said, "It's good, it's just that the village is not peaceful recently, and the health center is empty, and it looks a little panicked."

Among all public places, hospitals and crematoriums are the most bleak, because they are the places where the dead are gathered or the corpses are burned.

I said this for a purpose, to put walnuts, otherwise I would not be able to explain my behavior later.

Sure enough, He Laoyao's son's face immediately changed, he looked out the door and window with a little nervousness, and said, "Yes, that...Feng Daniu's wife was killed."

"It's okay, I have gadgets, whether they are useful or not, there is no harm in hanging them up." Seeing that the goal was achieved, I took out the walnuts and the red thread, wrapped the walnuts with the red thread, and hung them behind the front and rear doors and windows. Keep it in your pocket just in case.

The youngest He's son opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't say anything, acquiescing to my behavior.

By this time, the sky was completely dark.

Glancing at the dark night outside, my back felt a little chilly, and I checked the doors and windows carefully again, praying secretly in my heart, don't make too much noise tonight.
