60. Chapter 60: Hundred Ghosts Surrounding the House(1/2)
"The time when the ghosts enter the Yang Festival is the hour of the yang, that is, the twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, and the time to return is the hour of the middle, that is, the hour at morning. If you can't hold on for this hour, everything will be fine. If you can't hold on, you will leave it to fate." Yan Yang Ling came to his senses and told me solemnly: "I blocked the outside of the house with Taoist talisman, but the house of the hundred ghosts is not small. Taoist talisman can only be blocked for a while. I'm going outside now to guard it in case of ghosts coming in. Stay honestly inside the house, remember not to agree no matter what sound you hear, and don't walk around no matter what picture you see!"
After Yan Yangling repeatedly warned me, he walked out of the house alone.
Looking at Yan Yangling's back, a hint of gratitude rose in my heart. Before Yan Yangling opened the door and walked out of the house, I whispered: Wood, be careful.
Hearing my voice, Yan Yangling paused slightly, and then walked out without looking back.
The moment he opened the door, I obviously felt a cold feeling coming from outside the room.
I don't know what's outside, and I don't want to know, so I can only stay in the room fidgetingly.
The room was particularly quiet, and you could only hear the bells ticking, as if there was a different world in the room and outside the room.
But for some reason, I always feel something is wrong.
I can't tell what's wrong.
I didn't dare to move around, nor did I dare to speak, and stared at the clock hanging on the wall.
The guy Mutou said that after twelve o'clock, a hundred ghosts will still be dark, and everything will be fine. As long as I survive this hour, I will be safe.
But the fucking question just happened here.
Just now, I felt like time was like water. More than ten minutes passed at a glance, but what about now?
This clock seemed to be cast by someone, and it was walking very slowly.
In fact, this cannot be blamed on Zhong, it is just a psychological effect.
Time passed by bit by bit, and I watched the minute hand go from one finger to three with my own eyes. Gradually, I also discovered what was wrong just now.
Quiet!
It's so quiet!
I can't hear any sound, I can only hear the sound of the bell!
Taking a deep breath, I sat on the stool alertly, my eyes constantly tilting around.
But I couldn't see anything, and I was the only one in the room.
It was at this moment that a sudden ringtone of the cell phone broke the tranquility in the house.
I was startled when I heard the ringtone of my phone. I took out my phone from my pocket in panic. The caller ID on the phone was Fang Xiang.
I suddenly thought that I hadn't told Fang Yao for so long. He must have seen me never come back, so I called me to ask about the situation.
While I pressed to answer, I looked around carefully.
Not long after the phone was answered, Fang Xiang's voice was heard: Damn, Ning Lang, where are you? Come back quickly.
I glanced at the clock on the wall and found that it was only twelve to twenty. I pondered for a moment and said: I can't go back now, I will go back later.
"Do you know that today is Ghost Festival? You don't have a soul in your body now and it's easy to be overwhelmed by ghosts. Come back quickly and I can guarantee you're safe!" Fang Xiang said anxiously on the phone.
I frowned and hesitated. I believed Fang Xiang 100% but what should I do now?
It’s obvious that it’s a feeling that it’s hard to get off the tiger.
"Ninglang, you listen to me right. Come back quickly. I left a talisman on you. There must be no ghosts on the way back." Fang Xiang's voice was a little anxious. I knew he must be worried about me now.
But his words puzzled me.
Taoist talisman?
I have the Taoist talisman he left behind? Why don’t I know?
"Don't look for it, you can't find it. Ninglang, you're right to listen to me. It's still time to come back now, and it may be too late in a while!"
After a while of worries, I gritted my teeth and stood up, and walked towards the door.
As soon as I walked to the door, I suddenly remembered something.
Thinking of this, I quickly picked up my phone and looked at it and found that it was still on the phone. But I didn't continue to move forward, but stopped there.
After stopping, I said coldly to my phone: "You are not Fang Xiang!"
After saying this, I didn't give the other party a chance to speak and hung up the phone directly.
There is a reason why the person on the phone was not Fang Xiang.
First, when I came to the purple bamboo forest, my phone was silent, and I could only vibrate but not make a sound, but I just made a sound.
Second, from yesterday, Fang Xiang changed his name to me. He no longer called me directly, but called me stupidly.
Although I admit that I am stupid, who can be happy that others call you stupid?
And now it seems that this name really made me awaken.
After seeing through the tricks of the phone, I suddenly realized an important problem.
Mutou said that ghosts are different from humans. Ghosts can create many hallucinations. My phone has clearly been adjusted to vibrate, but it makes a sound. Can that prove that I am already in hallucinations?
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but tremble. If this is the case, it would probably be troublesome.
However, before I could think of what to do, I heard a sound coming from outside.
I waited for me to listen carefully and I heard someone calling me.
"Lang'er!Lang'er!"
The sound comes from outside, and the sound is particularly vicissitudes, with a local accent. Although it sounds a bit awkward, I can hear that this is my father's voice.
No one in this world calls me a man except my father and my mother.
I knew it was an hallucination, so I gritted my teeth and ignored it.
"Lang'er, why don't you talk? Come out quickly, your mother and I have come to see you, and I have brought you your favorite dumplings with celery and pork, so hurry up and eat them while they are hot."
I'll go fucking!
This damn ghost is too capable, right? I even know what I like to eat.
If I hadn't known in advance, I would have believed it now.
"Lang'er, come out soon. Your mother misses you and see you."
The sound was still ringing in my ears intermittently. I gritted my teeth and didn't think so much, pretending that I didn't hear it.
The sound was screaming for several times and seeing that I was not moving, I might have felt annoyed, and the sound disappeared without a trace.
Not long after I breathed a sigh of relief, another sound came from outside.
"Ninglang, I am Wu Niang, I'm here to find you!"
Wu Niang!
I moved my steps and stopped just as I was about to stand up.
Hallucination! This must be an hallucination!
"Alang, why don't you come out to see me? Don't you want to know what is hidden behind the Purple Bamboo Forest?"
Purple bamboo forest.
I gritted my teeth and still didn't move.
"Alang, I am really Wu Niang. I can't stay in the world for more time and I'm forced to return to the underworld. Now it's the Ghost Festival. I can come out once and come to you specifically. Come out quickly and I'll tell you all the secrets behind you."
I have no problem with my ears, and I can clearly tell that the sound is Wu Niang's.
When I thought of Wu Niang being a ghost and the words she left before leaving, "I don't have much time anymore." In addition to what I heard just now, I couldn't help it.
Could it be Wu Niang outside?
Wu Niang is a ghost, and now the gate of ghosts is wide open. Will she really come out to find me?
"Alang, I don't have much time left. Come out soon and I'll return your soul to you!"
Hearing this, I can no longer sit still.
My soul was taken away by Wu Niang. Only Fang Xiang, Wu Niang and I know about this matter, even Jiang Bo and Yan Yang Ling don’t know about it.
The one outside may be the real Wu Niang!
Thinking of this, I gritted my teeth and stood up and walked to the door.
Standing in front of the door, I hesitated again, not knowing whether to go out or continue to treat it as unheard of.
If going out is an hallucination, then I'm probably completely finished.
If all this is not an illusion, I may have lost a chance to know the truth.
After weighing the pros and cons, I made a fuss and thought to get rid of his mother's hallucinations. I went out. If I fell into trouble, I would accept it!
I put my hand on the door handle and pulled the door open directly as soon as I tried my best.
The door was opened by me, and I felt the cold wind blowing around me. In front of me was a woman in white. Her hair was very long and she was hanging in front of me.
Seeing that the woman who opened the door slowly raised her head, her long hair scattered to both sides as she looked up, I saw a strange cheek as pale as paper.
The person in front of him was not Wu Niang at all!
I was shocked. Before I could recover from my senses, I wanted to retreat, the woman standing in front of me showed me a strange smile.
