Top Students Don't Need Superpowers

If it was a ghost, she must have grabbed Asakawa and ran away, but the coughing person was an old lady with a kind face and a kind tone. The fear naturally disappeared without a trace, and she couldn't help asking curiously:

"Grandma, why didn't I see you just now?"

"I squatted in the back to tidy up the Banta Po." The old lady apologized, "I saw you coming, and I was afraid to scare you, so I didn't stand up."

"So that's how it is..."

May breathed a sigh of relief and completely relaxed.

Naoki Asakawa was pulled by May and walked over, and found that the Bantapo here really needs to be cleaned up.

The so-called Bantapo refers to the long wooden plaque standing behind the tombstone, which is mainly used to worship the dead. It looks like the wooden plaque that was inserted behind the head of the death row criminals in ancient China when they beheaded at Caishikou. , these things are generally made of wood, and they are prone to decay and insects in the open air. They really need to be cleaned regularly. It is a funeral ceremony unique to Japan in the world. The reason is very simple——

One word, poor.

When Buddhism was introduced to Japan, the idea of ​​transcending suffering and rebirth in bliss was quickly welcomed by people of all walks of life. Until now, it is still the dream of many people to let go of obsessions and become a Buddha. For example, a certain ghost girl .

In order to become a Buddha, it is often necessary to build a pagoda after death. Unfortunately, ordinary people can't afford to build a pagoda. Someone came up with a trick to cut corners and build a pagoda with five stones. empty', or the 'Miaofa Lotus Sutra'.

The commoners at the bottom couldn't even afford to build a stone pagoda, so they could only use a palm-width wooden sign with a few dents carved on the top to replace the five rounds, and finally became the most common Bantapo today.

"Grandma, shall we help you?" Wu Yue said.

Like Yotsuba, she can't help but lend a helping hand when she encounters difficulties.

"No need." The old lady shook her head, with a kind smile on her face, "I just finished tidying up, you go first, I will stay with the old man for a while."

"That, that's fine." Although I feel that it is inappropriate to leave the old lady here alone, but one of the daily principles of not causing trouble to others, Wu Yue will naturally not force her to help, so she can only say, "Grandma, We walked."

Naoki Asakawa stood quietly by the side and didn't speak until Wuyue turned and left before stepping up to follow.

"It's getting dark." Wu Yue raised her eyes and looked towards the sky.

While talking, most of the red sun in the sky has already sunk below the horizon, and the twilight is getting thicker and darker.

"After all, it's getting late." Naoki Asakawa took out his phone and looked at the time, "Go faster, and go back to review your homework at night."

"Oh."

Wuyue agreed, and looked forward to it, "Student Asakawa, can we dream of our mother at night?"

"I don't know." Asakawa Naoki said honestly, "Without enough data and information, it is not clear how to trigger the dream, let alone control the dream."

"Is that so..."

Wu Yue was a little disappointed. When she was distracted, she suddenly slipped and almost fell.

Naoki Asakawa grabbed May, pulled the hairy girl up, and couldn't help complaining: "Don't be distracted when you go down the mountain, knock off your front teeth and see what you do."

Wuyue didn't take it seriously at first, but upon hearing what Asakawa said, she quickly raised her hand to cover her lips, and said with lingering fear, "It's too much, don't say such scary things suddenly!"

"If you know it's scary, don't be distracted."

"I didn't do it on purpose..." Wu Yue puffed up her bun face, and suddenly stopped, "Wait, wait a minute."

"what happened?"

"It's going to be dark soon. I almost fell down when I was walking. The old lady just now is old and alone. It must be dangerous to go down the mountain, right?"

Asakawa Naoki put his right hand in his pocket: "So?"

Wu Yue said: "So let's go back and go down the mountain with grandma just now."

Asakawa Naoki's tone became subtle: "Are you sure?"

"Of course I'm sure." Wu Yue looked up, "Student Asakawa didn't say anything, but he was actually worried, right?"

"No, I'm not worried."

"Ugh-"

Wuyue puffed up her face, grabbed Asakawa Naoki's right hand, turned around and walked back, "Stop talking so much, let's go back quickly."

Chapter 354

Asakawa Naoki and May returned along the stone steps and returned to the cemetery soon.

"Hey, where's grandma?"

Wu Yue opened her eyes wide and looked around, trying to find the old lady just now, but unfortunately she couldn't see anyone in the twilight: "Could it be that you went down the mountain by another road?"

"No." Asakawa Naoki replied.

May was curious: "How does Asakawa know?"

Naoki Asakawa pointed to the tombstone, "Look for yourself."

"What, what's wrong?"

A nervous premonition welled up in my heart, Wu Yue looked down, there was a black and white photo in the upper right corner of the tombstone, on it was two old people who were buried together, the face of the old man was unfamiliar, as for the old lady... she was the one who coughed just now people.

Wuyue stared blankly at the photo on the tombstone, and after a few seconds, her eyes widened suddenly, and she hugged Asakawa Naoki's arm, her pretty face was pale, and she stammered:

"There are... there are ghosts!"

The old lady who spoke just now appeared on the photo, and it was in the cemetery again, at the time of the devil, what else could it be if it wasn't a ghost!

Although May has always expected that there will be ghosts in the world, so that you can see your mother, but when you meet a stranger’s ghost, you will know what you are afraid of. The essence is nothing more than that.
