my ghost husband

Chapter 56
I don't know if there were too many things yesterday and last night, the sun was already high when I woke up.It should have rained in the morning, and I could smell the earthy aroma from my bed.It is really rare to be able to smell nature in the city.

After taking a shower and changing clothes, when I went down to the first floor, the window of the living room on the first floor was closed, and the small table that was placed in front of the window returned to its original position.And the ghost doll on the table is gone, even the previous incense burner is gone.If it wasn't for the little incense ash on the table, I might have felt that those things were just my dreams.

There was no trace of mess on the sofa, but Zong Sheng was gone.I don't know how he has grown up in the past ten years since he left the village. When he was staying in a hotel, I saw him fold his own towels.Although he can be regarded as a rich second generation, he is different from others.He wasn't the kind of kid who was spoiled.

I packed my things, house keys in hand, and hesitated to return the keys to him.Or put it directly on the desktop.I never thought of the house as my own home.But last night I really slept very deeply here, and I didn't feel like living in a strange place at all.

Holding the key in my hand, I decided after a few minutes that it was just the key anyway and I would not return it.

Walk from the house to the entrance of the community, and then go a little further to the bus station.But this way, it takes 20 minutes to walk.

After getting on the bus, I went directly to the alley near the hotel.It was the alley where Lan Lan and I ate together.

It was the weekend, and the alley was crowded with people.Nearby, students from the two schools also like to come here to buy things.After all, they are all street stalls, and they are not very expensive.And there are many kinds of snacks here, and they are only a few dollars.

Among these small stalls, there are many fortune tellers.Some are old men, some are old ladies, and some look like 40-[-]-year-old aunts.

I walked from the end of the alley to the end of the alley, trying to find the one who gave me the talisman.If it wasn't for Zong Sheng's matter, I would never believe that there are ghosts in this world.If it was before, I would not believe these fortune-telling.But now I often come here to find the old man.

After squeezing in the alley for more than ten minutes, I saw the old man.He was telling the fortune to a couple of young people, and he said all good things, such as heaven and earth, a happy marriage, and the two young people smiled all over their faces.

I was standing right behind them, and I didn't want to urge them. If I didn't urge me, I would have been squeezed away by passers-by.

It was only after struggling to squeeze in front of his stall for more than ten minutes that the two young men left.In the same way, I saw the old man, pointing out two fingers at them, gesturing to charge them 20 yuan.

I also hurriedly prepared 20 yuan, just left a few years ago, and sat in front of the old man.

Before I started talking, the old man said: "I knew you would come to me again. Look, something happened, right? Haha, don't be afraid, you still have help."

"How did you know something happened to me!"

The old man didn't tell me at all, so he handed me a talisman: "You hold this talisman, keep it on your body at all times, put it on your chest when you sleep at night, press it with both hands, I guarantee that those dirty things I can't get close to you."

I froze for a moment, how come this is exactly the same as last time.Moreover, if a living person like Zong Sheng approaches me, this talisman will be useless at all!Besides, I don't intend to guard against Zong Sheng, his kind of strong black-bellied man can't guard against him at all.

"Master, I'm here today to ask you a few questions."

"You don't intend to marry me?"

"This..." I still put away his talisman and gave him 20 yuan at the same time.Only then can he continue to ask: "I have a classmate. She picked up a big bag of money on the side of the road last night and took it home. But after bringing it home, he had a dream. In the dream, a man said that she would die. My classmate Just wake up, look at the money again, only to find that it is paper money. How should we deal with this?"

"Your classmate, isn't he dead?"

I quickly shook my head.If Zong Sheng hadn't gone to Lan Lan's house last night, Lan Lan didn't know what would happen?
"Then there's more." The old man lit a cigarette before saying, "You tell her to pack up those paper money, and then in the middle of the night tonight, she finds a corner and throws the money away. To be honest, it's a whole night." If no one picks up the money, then let her family prepare for the funeral. If the money is picked up by someone, let her go home and make a fuss, and everything will be fine."

"Is this the only way?" I was surprised by what the old man said, and it was exactly the same as what Zong Sheng said.

"It's fine if you can solve the problem. How many ways do you want to go?" The old man didn't understand what I meant, and said to me angrily.

I quickly waved my hand: "No, no, I mean, can you not hurt others? Burn those paper money or something, and return it to others?"

The old man laughed: "You, you are still a child. If you come to chat with me about this kind of thing, then the 20 yuan will be regarded as the fee for me to chat with you. If this is true, then Let her do what I said, and she will be fine. If she is so merciful, then go to die. She is just your classmate, and you can't decide this kind of thing. Go back and talk to her at home, if this is If it's the real thing, let her do what I say. Hey, she's still a child!"

"Is there really no other way?"

"Yes! You invite me to their house, and I will do a ritual for her. Use her horoscope to check carefully, and pay back everything she wants. But let's talk first, if you miss a little bit and don't pay it back That would be equivalent to not repaying all of them. Don’t blame me if she dies. I’ll help her with this kind of thing, and I’ll have to complain myself. If it’s a powerful one, tsk tsk, ask them to see what they can do You can't give me one hundred thousand. You think I won't threaten this kind of thing, if it's not good, just wait for me to die for her."

After the old man finished speaking, my jaw almost dropped to the ground.

"Well, isn't there an easier way? Even if we take the paper money and burn it ourselves, it's considered to be returned to him, and we don't want his. Isn't that okay?"

"Did you come here to play with you? Now it's for your lives. Did you say that it can be done easily? Either let her transfer the money, or it's a big deal. Whoever helps her will be fine." It’s possible to die instead of her, who wants to? Give me [-] and we’ll think about it.” The old man’s words came to this point, and he smiled mischievously, “Forget it, I’m not destined to make a lot of money. I see you It's just telling me to play, go back. But it's strange, you have such a strong Yin Qi, and you are not sick? Do you know your horoscope? Let me do the math for you?"

After hesitating, I just said: "You can count the first horoscope for me, this person is very important to me."

The old man didn't speak, and held out two fingers to me.I understood what he meant, and handed him another 20 yuan, and also told Zong Sheng's date of birth.The time of his birth is no secret in our village, and many people know it.If it was before, I would not be willing to give 40 yuan to the roadside fortune-telling.This is also when I went back to my hometown before, Grandma Zong Sheng gave me a red envelope.She gave it to me quietly, and I didn't tell anyone.

The old man drew on a piece of red paper for a long time: "You remember correctly, sister, if this is a male fetus, it should be dead. He won't live until his first birthday."

I don't even know how I squeezed out of such a crowded alley and onto the bus.As the bus kept shaking on the bus, I kept thinking about what the old man said.

It seems that I misunderstood Zong Sheng last night. It seems reasonable for him to handle Lan Lan's matter like that.He hasn't reached the level of emotion that he is willing to die instead of Lan Lan. Even if he takes the risk, I don't think he will.I have no way to ask him to take such a risk. His life is also valuable. I can't use morality to kidnap him and make him a great hero.

There is also his horoscope, a horoscope that should die at the age of one, but he is not dead, he is still a living person, I can be sure.
