The wind blew in from outside the short courtyard wall. I stood in the yard and cleaned up the fallen leaves. Master Ye sat on the chair and lit a cigarette. I knew this was his habit.
"How long has this happened?"
I put down the broom in my hand and walked in front of him.
"Aren't you an expert? Can you help me see if I'm entangled by that thing?”
I felt a chill run down my spine when I thought of the strange things that had happened recently. I don't usually provoke anyone, so why am I entangled by dirty things?
Master Ye threw the cigarette butt on the ground and extinguished it. He raised his head to look at me and suddenly revealed a strange smile. That smile was like an old cat in a deep alley.
I slapped his face and immediately left five clear fingerprints.
Master Ye covered his face in pain. "If you ask me, even ghosts would be wary of you, let alone humans…"
"Can't you say something nice?”I sat down on the steps, feeling a little tired.
Master Ye looked around. It was a small courtyard house. Looking up, he saw the square sky. Because it had been a long time, the entire house was filled with vicissitudes.
"If you ask me, you should move out of here. The position and direction of this house are taboo. You were born during the lunar calendar, so it's easy for you to attract things…"
Hearing Master Ye speak so logically, I got goosebumps all over my body. However, this courtyard house is the only thing my parents left me.
Just a month ago, we were on a road trip together. On the way back, the car had an accident. Fortunately, I survived…
"No! I can't buy this house no matter what!”
I'm famous for my stubbornness. Master Ye and I have known each other since we were young. Their family's job is to deal with ghosts. I don't really believe in ghosts and gods. But now, this kind of thing actually happened to me…
Master Ye sighed. He took out a talisman from his bag and handed it to me.
"Take it. If that thing's cultivation isn't high, this can protect you.”
"Thank you."
Master Ye just shook his head. He was like a paralyzed person. I had never seen any extra expression on his face. I even suspect that there's something wrong with his facial nerves.
"Then I'll go back. I still have a business deal.”
Master Ye's eyes always sparkled when he talked about money. He's a money-grubber, but I'm used to it after so many years.
I sent Master Ye to the entrance of the alley. The autumn wind blew. A black cat seemed to have been frightened and ran away from the roof.
I looked around. The entire alley was empty. I was alone. He closed the door and entered the house. Because of my parents, I applied for leave from school. I can rest for a while.
It was night, a quiet night.
I held Master Ye's talisman tightly in my hand and prayed over and over again in my heart, hoping that man would never come again.
Although she was extremely nervous, she still couldn't resist the urge to sleep. Soon, I fell asleep in a daze.
In a dream, perhaps in a dream, I'm not too sure. He only vaguely felt that the door was pushed open by something, and a gust of cold air quickly spread through the room.
I flipped over and lay flat. No, to be precise, I was flipped over by someone. I wanted to move, but I found that my body and limbs were stiff. My consciousness began to slowly wake up. I wanted to open my eyes, but I found that my body was no longer under my control.
A cold chill entered my warm bed, and I immediately had goosebumps all over my body. His hands brushed across my body, cold and gentle.
His body was pressed against mine, as if my warmth could comfort his dead soul. His lips came close to my ear and he spoke.
"Zijin."
I was stunned. What kind of person is this? Uh, no, what the hell is this? It hasn't been long since he gave her a nickname. "Paper towels?" Why didn't he just call me " rag "…
"Are you afraid of me?" His hand touched my eyes, nose, cheeks, and finally stopped on my lips.
"Don't be afraid. I will be very gentle. Just like a hundred years ago…"
What the hell! It was the same as a hundred years ago. How long had he been dead? It was fine if he didn't go to reincarnate, but he was still harming innocent women here. Was there a ghost? Could he be controlled? No wonder the talisman Master Ye gave me was useless.
Soon, everything about me was exposed to him. I could only be manipulated by him. I had no chance to resist. I could only let the endless cold envelop me.
He pulled my hand and the talisman came into his sight. His hand stopped, and his amber eyes stared straight at me in the darkness.
"You got someone to draw talismans to guard against me?"
I heard his cold laugh. Then, he threw the talisman into the air and burned it into ashes in an instant.
His actions were no longer gentle like before, and were even a little rough. I was in so much pain because of his repeated demands that tears rolled down my pillow.
In the end, I fainted under his deep and rapid breathing…This was also the first time I knew that ghosts could breathe.
When I woke up the next day, it was already afternoon. The setting sun fell into my courtyard and entered the house through the window.
I moved a little. How could this be? I felt my entire body aching. I struggled to get up and the blanket slipped down. I lowered my head. Oh my god! What were these marks?
He turned around and saw the clothes on the ground and the ashes that had been blown by the wind.
I fell down weakly. I was raped by a ghost. So, is that what you mean? What the hell? Is there still any law? No, I have to find Master Ye.
I packed everything up in a hurry. I didn't even have time to eat before I rushed to Master Ye's residence.
I was waiting for a taxi at the intersection when a taxi stopped in front of me. The driver was a man of medium build. His hair was starting to fall out, probably because he was working the night shift.
"Miss, where are you going?"
I was a little puzzled. There was clearly a person sitting in his car, so why did he pull me along? Is the taxi industry so popular now? However, due to time constraints, I'm afraid that Master Ye won't be at home if I'm late. He has a lot of business arranged at night. As for the reason, we all understand.
After getting in the car, I sized up the man in the passenger seat. He must be an actor. He was wearing black clothes with exquisite patterns on them. There was a jade pendant on his waist. It was green in color and looked very good under the light. It was probably expensive. Looking at the person's appearance again, under his thick eyebrows was a pair of peach blossom eyes that flickered with coldness. The lips under his high nose bridge were tightly shut.
I don't have the mood to think about anything else now. I just want to get to Master Ye's house as soon as possible. I can't stand this kind of life anymore.
"Master, how much is it?"
"Twenty."
He paid the fare and got out of the car. In the blink of an eye, I realized that the man in the car had disappeared.
I suddenly felt a chill down my spine. The autumn wind blew over from afar, blowing my hair on my shoulders in a mess.
I'm a person who cares a lot about my appearance. To put it simply, I love to show off. I stood at the intersection and tidied my hair. When I looked up, I saw the man who was sitting in the car just now standing opposite me.
I couldn't see his expression clearly. My cold palms were already sweating. I seemed to have realized something.
Now that the sky was getting dark, my pace was getting faster. I knocked on Master Ye's door.
"What's wrong?"
Ye San opened the door and saw me standing at the door haggard.
"Let's talk inside."
I entered the house. Looking at the table full of things, he knew that Master Ye must have earned a lot today.
"What? Can you be more reliable? That talisman of yours is useless!”
As soon as I sat down, I kept complaining to Master Ye. Seriously, how could he cheat his good friend like this…
"Alright, my great aunt. How would I know that he clearly came with ill intentions…"
Master Ye poured me a cup of tea to comfort me. There was a totem-like image printed on the white cup.
"Then tell me, is there any way? Let me tell you, you can't leave me in the lurch. We've been good sisters for many years.”
Master Ye rolled his eyes at me." Hey, don't twist my gender!" I'm straight! Straight man!"
"Master Ye. On the way here today, I saw a man. He doesn't seem human…He's wearing ancient clothes and has an indescribable evil aura…"
Master Ye didn't seem surprised at all. He continued to wipe his tools with the tattered rag.
"Hey, are you listening to me?”
"I know. I read your fortune yesterday. However, this thing is quite powerful, and I'm scared…"
There was actually a ghost that even Master Ye was afraid of! God, I'm already pitiful enough. You don't have to treat me like this.
"Xiao Bai, do you still remember what happened when you were young?”
When he was young? I seemed to have lost all memories of my childhood, and my parents never mentioned it to me.
Master Ye asked about me, and I was surprised, but I could only shake my head.
