Chapter 19 The Three Female Ghosts
"Freak?" Ruan Zhan frowned, "He makes you nervous?"
"I don't know, I feel uncomfortable when I hear such a person." Xiao Xia was a little uneasy for no reason. "You know that a woman has a keen sixth sense. I'm afraid that he is the Taoist priests, monks, and Onmyoji invited by Zhang Xue's father. This will expose you. Be careful!"
"Do you think he came to catch me?"
"Isn't this very obvious? Apart from the police, only Zhang Xue's father is working hard to investigate the "evil warlock". I don't want you to be discovered. I heard that Zhang Xue's father is eager to take revenge and issued a "Jianghuhu hunting order". If you are caught, don't try to go through judicial procedures. I don't have the chance to defend you. Your life will definitely be over!"
"You also said that you have watched too many Hong Kong and Taiwan police and gangster dramas in Ni Yang!" Ruan Zhan laughed and felt a little strange in his heart, "Are you afraid something happened to me?"
"Of course, otherwise I won't have a free 'magistrate' to use!"
"I know you're snob!"
Xiao Xia laughed, "Just kidding, you take it seriously. I have many girlfriends, you and Wanli, male friends. If something happens to you, I will lose 50% for no reason. I can't afford such a high proportion. I feel unlucky even if I think about it! So, we must be careful. Haven't you heard anyone say that - Zhuge is cautious in his life and is careful to walk for ten thousand years. There is nothing wrong with being careful. Are you smarter than Zhuge Kongming?"
"Okay, I didn't show anyway before. If you act on your own in the future, you don't have to worry about my business."
"I think beautifully. If you say that you will help me to the end." Xiao Xia knew that Ruan Zhan was just talking, but she still reminded her very seriously, "I am worried about your safety, but you want me to face the evil evil spirits alone, without any awareness among friends!"
"What do you think you want to do?"
"Of course there is a solution. You think, I am the legal representative of the school now. No one will doubt me when I walk around the school. Then I said that this case is too terrible. I want my 'boyfriend' to accompany me, and who can say anything else."
"I'm very honored."
"Everyone is working." Xiaoxia said seriously: "At least it's enough to calm down."
She glanced at the women not far away. They seemed to be drinking and chatting, but were actually paying attention to her and Ruan Zhan. They were standing on the stairs and talking, and they could see each other with the people in the bar. She knew that this situation was a bit sneaky, but she didn't dare to call Ruan Zhan upstairs for a secret conversation, as it would provide many people with colorful rich imaginations.
After all, humans are social animals, so we must consider the influence. The so-called human words are terrifying!
"You said let's go and have a look now. Doesn't it seem a bit weird? And now it should be the time when it has the strongest ability, right?"
"Tomorrow! You should find Tao Xiaochun's - the entity is better. And you need to make some foreshadowing in advance. Isn't it strange to go to an old garage instead of legal affairs?" Ruan Zhan thought for a while, "In this way, everyone knows that you are very familiar with Liu Tie, so he said that he gave you his motorcycle to you. As your 'boyfriend', of course I went together."
"It's not good." Xiao Xia opposed, "First of all, I don't want to get Liu Tie into this matter. I just asked him to promise not to go to the garage these few days. In addition, the most important thing is that Liu Tie and I have something to do with you. On the surface, it seems just a coincidence, but I'm afraid that those who are interested must find out some omissions from here, which will be detrimental to you."
"If someone with a heart wants to find out our connection, there are too many clues that can be involved, so don't care about this." Ruan Zhan said, her heart was warm because of her concern for him. At least she was stronger than the friend who had been with him for more than 20 years. "It's a blessing, not a disaster, but it's a disaster, and we don't have any handles to fall into the hands of others. Be careful, it's right, but - I'm here, don't be afraid!"
"Do you want me to talk to Liu Tie?"
"I'll go and say, you go upstairs first."
Xiaoxia nodded and returned to Ruan Zhan's upstairs alone, but now her bedroom belongs to her.
Ruan Zhan’s store is located in a very good location, where bars and office buildings gather. After nightfall, the front of the door is very lively, but the back is very secluded. Moreover, his bar is not the very noisy type. In addition, he made the sound insulation on the second floor very well, so the bedroom basically seemed to be isolated, very quiet and comfortable. After changing clothes, Xiao Xia lay comfortably on the bed, turned off the light and let himself fall into the darkness, thinking about the weird thing in his mind vaguely, until his consciousness became more and more drowsy and gradually entered a state of sleep.
Dangdangdang!
A crisp sound of knocking on the window suddenly came from the quiet night.
Xiao Xia woke up in an instant and stared at the dark roof. Someone knocked on the window? But this was the second floor of the bar, and because the weather was a little hot, the windows were wide open.
She held her breath and did not move for a while, without sound.
It must be a dream, she thought, and relaxed her whole body. But just as she was about to turn over and continue to sleep, a woman's trembling laughter sounded again, as clear as if she was lying in her ears.
whee--
"Who is it?" she screamed in shock.
"Yue-Xiao-Xia, Yue-Xiao-Xia, Yue-Xiao-Xia!"
Subconsciously, Xiao Xia almost responded, but for some reason, suddenly remembered the story of Wanli’s house, and hurriedly fell silent, jumped out of bed and turned on the bedside lamp.
There were only her and her shadow in the room, and intermittent strange sounds came from the window.
Without the wind, the curtains did not move. Xiao Xia tiptoed over and stopped by the window, wondering whether to open the curtains and take a look. Maybe it was the hallucination caused by his recent neurasthenia? Or the illusion of half-dream and half-awake? If you don’t figure it out, go to Ruan Zhan, aren’t you relying too much on others?
"You're here!" a woman suddenly said behind the curtain.
Xiao Xia was so scared that she took a step back. At this moment, the night wind blew up the curtains, and three bloody faces that were motionless and smiled were faintly emerging in front of Xiao Xia's eyes, hanging upside down in the air one meter outside the window!
They seemed unable to surpass the window frame, but they were stubbornly staying outside the window. No matter from any angle, Xiao Xia could see their gloomy existence through the gaps of the floating curtains.
She jumped up and ran downstairs like running away.
"Ruan Zhan! Ruan Zhan! There is a ghost! There is --"
Her scream made everyone in the bar look up at the stairs, and everyone's attention also made her screams stop suddenly. She stood there in a daze, and she looked at Ruan Zhan with help.
"Miss Yue, are you watching ghost movies online again? If you are timid, don't watch that!" Ruan Zhan looked at her scared face and calmly resolved the accident. "Don't dare to turn off the computer? Okay, I'll help you."
Xiao Xia agreed vaguely and pulled her pajamas uneasy. Fortunately, the style is conservative.
"Sister Xiaoxia, what kind of a ghost movie? I'm not afraid of sending it to me one day." Ni Yang said heartlessly.
Ruan Zhan, who had just walked to Xiaoxia, turned around and Ni Yang suddenly fell silent. Xiaoxia discovered Ruan Zhan's invisible majesty for the first time.
"Where are ghosts in this world?" He lied calmly, "Even if there is, have you never heard of 'Zi Buyu's strange powers and gods'? Boy, I've scared so many cute ladies, I'm the only one asking!"
Ni Yang waved his hand in a hurry, "How dare I! These sisters are my parents of food and clothing, and I don't have time to support me!" He made a face, and his lively and playful expression immediately relaxed the atmosphere on the scene, and restored Xiao Xia's situation of shouting that there was a ghost. But his face made Xiao Xia, who was frightened, tremble. Ruan Zhan tightly held her cold little hand and passed on the warmth and stability to her.
"You don't have to go up."
"No, I'll go. It seems like those three female ghosts. If possible, I want to communicate with them. It's not a solution for them to keep staring at me like this." Xiao Xia gritted her teeth and came a little 'anger than fear'.
"It's up to you." He pulled her upstairs, "I doubt it would be useful."
"What I'm afraid of is that they will run away when they see you, maybe they have already run away now."
Sure enough, Xiao Xia guessed it right again.
Ruan Zhan walked to the window and felt a little ghostly spirit that had not yet dissipated. It was obvious that there were indeed three female ghosts here and they had not left for a long time. It was not Xiao Xia's suspicion. He frowned and knew that it would be troublesome. Because his house was "specially handled". Not only did ghosts not enter, but they had to pay a price to connect to each other, but they took the risk to entangle Xiao Xia, which shows how deep the hatred was. In other words, even if the bloody Mary ended perfectly, they would never give up because Xiao Xia rescued Tao Xiaochun's soul from the evil spirit. As long as Xiao Xia left his protection area, he might be invaded or even die.
If this problem is not completely solved, Xiao Xia will always follow her because of uncertainty and fear, and then the decision to keep a distance from her cannot be made, so her original affairs once again "necessarily" became his affairs!
Seeing that he was silent, Xiaoxia hurriedly asked, "You won't ignore me, right!"
"This is thanks to Tao Xiaochun's grandparents, you shouldn't get into this mess."
"What you see is not that I want to get in. There are always various factors that push me into this dead corner without realizing it. Is this considered the will of heaven in the dark?"
"I don't know, it depends on whether you accept or endure."
"I am forced to accept it and am patient." Xiao Xia was extremely distressed, "I have to find a way to solve it."
"There are only two ways. One is to resolve their resentment, but it is difficult to believe me; the other is to cut them to ashes with the Blood Wood Sword."
"There is no need to be that ruthless! After all, they are also victims."
"There is no third way." Ruan Zhan said coldly.
Xiao Xia's speech ends.
Every time when it comes to solving problems, Ruan Zhan is always like a person without feelings. In fact, since they met, she has found that he treats her frequently and coldly, close and distantly, making people unable to touch her. Just like in this matter, he gently held her hand to comfort her, and in a blink of an eye, forcing her to make a choice, completely disregarding her fearful and unbearable mentality.
"I'll choose the first one." She couldn't bear to let the three female ghosts who went astray ended up even more miserable. She had to try whether they could resolve their resentment. Moreover, this decision also contained the willful meaning of being angry with Ruan Zhan.
Ruan Zhan was not surprised by this.
He walked to the bookshelf, took the pony among the three cartoon candles from above, crushed the sealing wax outside, and a metal flag with red rust and small black dots was revealed.
"What kind of treasure is this?" Xiao Xia, who had seen the blood wood sword in the candle rabbit, came over curiously.
"The Remnant Break Banner." He said briefly, using the sharp edge of the flag to cut his fingers, and then silently recited the already deserted spell, and shot a drop of blood beads into the air, watching the blood beads disappear out of thin air.
"So what great Taoist technique is this?"
Ruan Zhan did not answer.
Taoism? Wicked art? He couldn't tell the difference. He didn't understand why his father forced him to learn these things back then, even though his father also knew that those secret techniques were taboos should not be passed down! Is it just because he was born with powerful power and the power he hated, or is it a deeper meaning?
This is also a mystery to him.
