Midnight Restaurant

Chapter 83 Ghost Tree
I was taken aback when I saw that black air, is this person abnormal?

Suddenly a burst of fragrance drilled into my nose, and then a soft hand fell on my shoulder.I turned my head, and the proprietress was already standing beside me: "Go, chat with them."

After finishing speaking, the proprietress smiled at me, turned around, and walked into the back kitchen with the bottle of dragonfly grass.

This time I don't need to be reminded by the proprietress, I'm going there too, Qiao Man is my acquaintance, and that girl has always been very close to Qiao Man, probably because of a close relationship, I have to see what's going on.

As soon as I walked over, Qiao Man smiled and waved to me: "Ye Yan! Hehe, did you notice me? Just now I saw you chatting with the proprietress sister, so I didn't call you."

"Yeah, I just saw... Hey, what's going on with you guys, you stay up late at night and come out to eat? Is there anything good to celebrate?" While chatting, she sat down beside Yin Guoer.

Qiao Man glanced at Yin Guoer, and then looked at me curiously: "Didn't Guoer tell you? Today is the weekend, next week the school is on holiday, it's summer vacation."

summer vacation?I'm going, is it already this time?Sure enough, it's better to study, and there is still a winter and summer vacation.and I?Well, the longest vacation in my life is estimated to be no more than seven days.If others deduct wages during vacation, I will die if I go on vacation.

I nodded without tears: "No wonder, so you guys came out to play."

"Yeah, I thought you and Guo'er were living together, so you'd know." Qiao Man suddenly smiled and winked at me.

Looking at Qiao Man's weird eyes, my face was full of black lines, and Yin Guoer went too far. As a girl, she didn't even explain it. Not only that, she even deliberately approached me with her little butt.I wiped off my sweat and smiled dryly: "Don't make trouble, sisters, those who don't know think I'm abducting and selling underage girls... Oh, right, who is this?"

I quickly brought the topic of chat to the real thing.

"Oh, this is Han Le, my best friend, we were neighbors when I was young, and now I am a freshman in Ning University... Oh yes, recently because Guoer is often not at home, I am afraid of being alone, occasionally I will go to live with her, she and a friend are renting a house near Ningda University, but something happened last month... Now she lives by herself."

When talking about what happened last month, Qiao Man hesitated to speak, I knew it was not a good thing.

At this time, Han Le also smiled at me and stretched out his hand: "Hello..."

I also stretched out my hand, and my fingers touched the girl's fingers, which was regarded as a handshake, but the moment my fingers touched, I suddenly felt a chill enter my palm.At that time, I was taken aback, thinking that this was too obvious, this girl must have been entangled by ghosts for a long time, that's why she behaved like this!Because I am born with a special physique, it is easier to attract Yin Qi. If a ghost, or a person with heavy Yin Qi is removed from my limbs, I will feel this way.

And people with a lot of Yin Qi are either born with it, or they are entangled by ghosts the day after tomorrow.

Seeing that this girl can live peacefully to the age of 20, she must not be born with a natural physique.

So I squinted at her and asked, "Girl, is there something wrong with you recently? I don't think you're doing well. Are there any strange things happening around you recently?"

Hearing this, Han Leqiang's smile froze immediately, and the next moment, the smile disappeared, and he looked at me with trembling eyes: "You...you can really see it?"

I was taken aback, why did you ask me back?

At this time, Qiao Man's face also changed slightly. She first comforted Han Le and said it was fine, then looked at me, smiled a little embarrassedly, and said, "Actually, Ye Yan, I brought her here this time because I wanted to trouble you. your……"

I understood Qiao Man's words in an instant. It seems that this girl seems to be bewitched recently, and Qiao Man wants to ask me to exorcise evil spirits.

I didn't rush to agree, so I asked first: "What's going on? What's the strange thing, please tell me."

Han Le's complexion was very ugly. I felt that there was something wrong with her mental state. It seemed that she couldn't explain clearly, so Qiao Man took her place and told me what happened before...

Qiao Man said before that last month, something happened to the girl who rented with Han Le. It was actually a house robbery.The robbers are habitual criminals who have recently been active in the southern Ning area, robbing and killing people.The girl who rented with Han Le ended up tragically. She was the only one in the apartment that night, and was brutally murdered by criminals who broke into the house.

I was taken aback at the time, the girl we rented together was killed at home, could it be that the ghost of that girl was lingering, and Han Le was haunted by his roommate?

But in fact, it seems to be a little bit different from what I thought.

Although the roommate died, nothing strange happened in the family at first.However, Han Le was very sad at that time, because she had a very good relationship with the dead girl. They were also classmates in high school, and they got along with each other for more than four years, and they had a deep relationship.The police couldn't find the girl's body for a long time, and the murderer couldn't catch it, which made Han Le very angry.

So Han Le thought of some special methods.

This method has something to do with a strange legend circulating in Ningnan. It is said that in the small forest behind Ningnan Elementary School, there is an old locust tree called the Human Face Tree.Legend has it that the tree is psychic and can summon the souls of the dead to possess the tree. At that time, the bumpy marks on the trunk of the old locust tree will turn into faces of the dead and can communicate with people.The summoner can ask questions, and the deceased will answer the questions posed by the deceased if he wishes.

Hearing this, I laughed dryly, isn't this just a psychic game?Sure enough, it was another game of death, and the result was that the rhythm of death was about to succeed...

I guessed it right this time. The second half of the incident was like this. In order to summon the soul of my best friend, Han Le took some items that her best friend used to use during her lifetime, such as the hair on the comb, the aunt’s towel in the wastebasket, etc., in the tree. Then, according to the legend, walk three times counterclockwise, repeating the name of the deceased three times for each circle.

"...and then?" I interrupted and asked, but kept silent, my mouth felt uncomfortable.

Before Qiao Man could say anything, Han Le took over the conversation: "But I don't know what I did wrong... I, I didn't see Xin Qianyu in the end, I saw something else..."

Xin Qianyu was the name of the dead girl.

But at this moment, I am more concerned about what else does she mean?
"What else?" I wondered.

"The faces full of trees...have all kinds of shapes...it's very scary, I...I don't dare to think about it, it's so scary..." Han Le trembled more and more, Qiao Man took her hand, Looking at me, he continued: "Let me tell you, Han Le was haunted by those figures later on, saying that he was with her every day, whether it was eating, sleeping, going to the toilet, or class. Repeatedly in her ear While asking, why did you call them out, and what do you want to ask them about?"

"Ah? What about now?" I looked at Han Le wonderingly.

Han Le shook his head at me: "It's nothing now... It's actually very strange, as long as there are people around me, they won't come out, I'm very scared now, I'm going crazy with this feeling, especially when I'm sleeping, sometimes I can feel them getting into my bed, and their cold hands are on my body... Ye, Master Ye, I heard Qiao Man say that you are very powerful, can you help me, please, I can pay money."

pay?I was having fun at the time, and that’s okay, that’s okay, it just so happened that I was tricked by the lady boss today, and it’s not bad to earn a few hundred dollars.And it shouldn't be difficult to judge visually, anyway, the other party is just a tree, if you really can't handle it, just run away.Even if there really are dead souls haunting the girl, after so many days, they just whispered in my ear, they seem to be little innocent souls with no ability to kill, and my half-ghost body can even fight them head-on.

So I smiled at that time: "That's so embarrassing, but if you insist..."

"If you have to give it, you can't take it. After all, you are all friends, right?" The voice of the proprietress came to my ears faintly. I'm behind, not only cut off my money, but also gave me a false advertisement: "My waiter brother has done a lot of things like catching ghosts and exorcising evil spirits. I found him to be the right person. How about it, I think this little sister With such an ugly face, I must have been troubled for a long time, Ye Yan, I have a holiday tonight, you go with them to see that tree now... Oh yes, bring everything you can, I haven't opened for a long time."

The second half of the sentence was spoken to me in such a small voice that only I could hear it.

At that time, my face was full of black lines, this lady boss definitely had a grudge against me.

"I'm going too, I'm going too!" Yin Guoer stood up at this time, expressing that she would go with me, and the proprietress finally did a good deed, saying that no one would serve the plate after Yin Guoer left.In the end, Yin Guoer could only stay angrily, watching me get off work early... In other words, it feels pretty good, doesn't it?I'm really twisted.

Back to the topic, in general I am still unhappy.But the proprietress said it out, and I can't ask for money back, so I can only volunteer with the two girls in the middle of the night for free.

In other words, this Ningnan Primary School is quite close to Qiao Man’s best friend’s residence. We first went to Qiao Man’s best friend’s residence. I think it must be related to the recent incident of Han Le being haunted by ghosts.After I checked with ghost eyes in the house, we went downstairs. There is a plantation path behind the community where Han Le lives. It was very dangerous in the middle of the night without lights. We walked along this path. , about 10 minutes, arrived at the grove behind Ningnan Elementary School.

In the darkness, Han Le stretched out his hand beside me, pointing forward: "The tree... the tree is in the middle, let's go there together..."

As she spoke, she subconsciously approached me.

"Okay, at that moment, follow the previous method, summon the soul again, and lure those things out. I'll talk to them. If the discussion doesn't work out..." Saying this, I pulled out the proprietress' knife!

With a buzzing sound, Han Le hurriedly took a step back, and I almost scratched her.

"Ahem, I'm sorry... If you don't talk properly, do it!" I raised my eyebrows. Anyway, they were a group of cowards who didn't dare to kill people after following him for half a month. I was very confident at the time, and I thought I would be able to fight Let them call daddy.

It's a pity that I forgot at the time, God likes to slap my face mercilessly with his little hands...
