My father is indeed famous in our county, but his reputation is not good. He has been carrying the reputation of a liar for more than ten years!
Therefore, when Wu Shun bragged about my father, I was afraid that Old Master Li would think that we were liars because he knew my father well!
Our northwestern countryside is relatively backward. There are many people who believe in ghosts and gods. The identity of Mister Yin Yang is very respected in the countryside.
However, Wu Shun and I came from the county town. Moreover, Wu Shun boasted about my father so much that Old Master Li looked at me in a new light!
However, at this moment, Li Shunlai's wife, Wang Fengxi, placed the bowl of noodles on the table with obvious hostility on her face. She said to the old man of the Li family,"Big, I don't think these two people are good people! Don't come here to swindle money after hearing that something happened to our family!”
When Wang Fengxi said this, Old Master Li looked at the two of us with a hint of suspicion.
At this moment, I pretended to be at a loss and said to Wang Fengxi,"Sister-in-law, aren't we just going to your house to drink some water and eat something? Moreover, we even gave you money. How come in your mouth, we're here to swindle money?”Seeing my confused look and the money that we gave Wang Fengxi, the Li family's old man's suspicion towards Wu Shun and me immediately lessened. He even scolded his daughter-in-law in front of the two of us.
"You just came to our house to drink some water and eat something, and you're asking for money! When will you change your petty greed?”Old Master Li glared at Wang Fengxi.
Wang Fengxi lowered her head and whispered," They forced it on me. I didn't ask them for it!"”
Hearing Wang Fengxi's words, Wu Shun said in a strange tone,""Swindlers cheat people of their money, and we two swindlers force money into people's hands. If there were more swindlers like us in this world, how good would it be!”
"Who knows if you're trying to swindle us out of a lot of money?" Wang Feng said happily.”Hearing Wang Fengxi's words, I said to Wu Shun,"In that case, we don't have to disturb them here!”
When Wu Shun heard this, he also catered to my words." That's right. A person has a face, and a tree has bark. We can't bear the reputation of a liar!”
The two of us talked as we pretended to get off the brick bed and put on our shoes to leave.
At this moment, Old Master Li grabbed me and said anxiously,"Young man, if you can really see ghosts, then you must help me!”
Actually, I had already expected to be pulled back by the Li family's old master. This is because the nightmares that the old couple have every night have almost tortured them to madness!
At this moment, in order to prove my innocence, I pretended to be angry and said to Old Master Li,"I really don't know what happened to your family, but based on what this sister-in-law said, no matter what you want me to help you with, I will definitely help you to the end.”Wang Fengxi didn't say anything else after I said that. She silently placed a few bowls of noodles on the Kang table, arranged the chopsticks, side dishes, and chili oil, and then walked out with a plate.
More importantly, if Li Shunlai really met with an accident, why would he only appear in his parents 'dreams and not in his wife's dream?
Was there something wrong with Wang Fengxi? Just as I was thinking about it, Wu Shun had already started chatting with Old Master Li. After a short conversation, Old Master Li took the initiative to tell us about the nightmare that the two of them had!
Old Master Li even told me and Wu Shun that they were basically certain that their son, Li Shunlai, might have met with an accident.
However, whether he was dead or alive, they had to find out the truth. Even if they died, they had to find out how Li Shunlai died.
Was it an accident? Or was he murdered? It was also because of this reason that the old couple went to the county and even the prefectural government to cause trouble again and again!
So I said to Old Master Li,"In that case, I'll summon your son's soul tonight. If I can't summon it, it means that he's still alive. Your dream is purely psychological.”
At this moment, Wu Shun and I are sitting on the brick bed and talking to Old Master Li. Old Madam Li is also on the brick bed. Only Li Shunlai's wife, Wang Fengxi, is standing on the ground. When she heard that I was going to summon Li Shunlai's soul and that I seemed to be able to talk to Li Shunlai's ghost, Wang Fengxi's face revealed a trace of panic.
I already had some doubts about Wang Fengxi. Now that I saw the expression on her face, I was even more suspicious of her!
At this moment, Old Master Li was very excited. He held my hand and asked,"You, you really know how to summon souls? Can you really see ghosts? You can even talk to ghosts?"
I nodded and said,"I need some things to summon the soul. Old man, you have to help me prepare them!"”
"What do you need to prepare?" Old Master Li asked.”
I said,"I want divine incense, a soul-guiding lamp, rooster blood, your son's birth characters, a piece of white paper, and a white porcelain bowl!”The last time he used the blood of a pregnant woman to summon Zhang Lingfeng's soul, it was because the blood of a pregnant woman was also known as the human fetus. This kind of blood could communicate with the Yin and Yang worlds. It was very useful when summoning the soul of a living person's physical body. However, Li Shunlai's physical body was unknown, so the blood of a pregnant woman could not be used!
When the Li family's old man saw that I was telling the truth, he believed me even more. However, he didn't know what the incense and soul-guiding lamp I wanted were.
Seeing this, I explained to him.
"Actually, inviting the god incense is the kind of incense we use when we go to the temple to offer incense. The soul-guiding lamp is a round lantern made of white paper.”I said.
"Shunlai's mother, go and cook two more dishes. We can't neglect Mr. Little Jiang! Mr. Little Jiang, you guys eat first. I'll go prepare the things you need now!”
Li Shunlai's mother was in a similar mood as Old Master Li. After hearing Old Master Li's words, she hurriedly went to cook for Wu Shun and me!
However, Wang Fengxi didn't help her mother-in-law. Instead, she told her mother-in-law that she had something to do and left in a hurry.
I originally planned to let Wu Shun secretly follow Wang Fengxi to see where she was going. However, I realized that doing so might alert the enemy, and it would be more convenient to ask Li Shunlai's ghost directly. I stared at Wu Shun for a while but didn't voice this idea.
At this moment, Wu Shun noticed that I was staring at him, so he came to my side and asked me in a low voice,"Boss, you said you can see ghosts. Is that true?”
I said,"Of course it's true! Would I lie to your dad?"
Wu Shun didn't say anything else, but I could tell from his expression that he didn't really trust me.
So I smiled at Wu Shun." Do you want to see ghosts too?”
