Book House Strange Talk

Tai Yi put his wrists on the handlebars and yawned, shivering uncontrollably when a gust of cool wind blew.The highest temperature in today's weather forecast is 18°, and now it's at most ten degrees, and even the sun doesn't look that warm.Even though he was wearing a jacket over his school uniform and a fleece sweater, he still felt cold, Tai Yi regretted it a little - when he was about to leave the house, his father asked him if he wanted another pair of thick trousers, and he refused.

The paper and copper coins on the ground were blown up by the wind, Tai Yi turned the front of the car to the side to avoid it, and several students around him also moved like him.

There are many ways to go to school, but each of them will pass through the tree-lined road in front of the school.Less than 50 meters away from the school is the People's Hospital, and behind the hospital is a funeral street, which may have something to do with this boulevard, where yellow and white paper and copper coins are scattered on the ground every day.

Tai Yi heard from the elders that you should not touch the paper money on the ground, if the ghost does not leave, it will think that you are going to grab money from it, and will follow you.Tai Yi would think of this sentence whenever he saw someone burning paper on the side of the road, and he felt a little nervous.

When I got to the class, I just put down my schoolbag when I saw my deskmate Liu Hua enter the class in a hurry and threw his schoolbag on the stool, which caused the surrounding students to turn their heads to see what was wrong with him.

"I'm so fucking convinced, who the hell is burning a ghost every day!"

Tai Yi thought to himself, maybe it was burnt to the ghosts, but he still asked, "What's wrong?"

The girl at the front desk of Liu Huaguan borrowed a wet towel and wiped her face vigorously: "Just the one burning paper at the intersection! Such a big piece of paper money was slapped on my face, it made me sick, damn it, I won't lose money today Mold! Who do you think is sick with fever every day!"

Tai Yi shrugged and ignored him. Liu Hua's eyes rolled, and the pen in his hand followed suit. He leaned his head towards him and asked, "Brother Tai? Are you interested? Let's see who burns the paper tonight?"

Tai Yi glanced at him and warned, "No, don't make trouble for yourself."

Eyes through yin and yang can see ghosts.

Tai Yi has yin and yang eyes, and can see things that normal people cannot see. At the intersection of the school boulevard, there is a little girl covered in blood. She looks about seven or eight years old in stature, with a fierce look on her face.Even though Tai Yi has seen countless ghosts with this kind of aura, he is still not sure whether the paper money floating every day is related to this girl, whether people are people, and for these things that should not be seen It is better to hide far away.

After speaking, Tai Yi glanced at the morning self-study task written on the blackboard, took out the exercise book and obediently wrote the questions, and his thoughts flew away as he wrote, remembering what his father had told him.

He was not born at full term, but also had a dystocia. His mother lost his breath the moment he cried out to the world for the first time. The doctors and nurses also panicked when they saw this black and blue baby. Grandma saw her daughter's body crying and wanted to strangle him, a mortal ghost, but it was his father and his aunt who stopped him.

Later, there were too many gossips among relatives, so Tai Yi's father carried him to this city to live, and raised him as a father and mother.

In the first month after birth, the bruises on Tai Yi's body faded away. I thought the child would grow up safely, but what I didn't expect was that Tai Yi was very weak, crying or falling ill all the time. Cry to death.

Tai's father went to all the hospitals he could run, but it didn't get better. In the end, the older colleagues in the unit gave him a solution and asked him to find the kind of god who did the job to show the child.

Firstly, Tai's father didn't really believe in ghosts and gods, and secondly, he didn't know where to find such a person, so he went to the temple with the child to ask for two peace charms and was invited out.

On the day of Tai Yi's second birthday, he met an old man who insisted on smearing incense ash on Tai Yi's eyelids. on his eyelids.

But Tai Yi got better after that, and the old man in the unit said after hearing this: "Little Tai, you have to thank him if you meet him in the future! Children with weak yang energy may see unclean things." Yes, this is an expert who saved Xiao Yi's life!"

Unfortunately, the old man was never seen again.

Tai Yi grew up to the age of 12 in this way, but his body was still much weaker than children of the same age. On his 12th birthday, a car accident almost killed him. Not to mention, he returned the pair of yin and yang eyes he.

Tai Yi could see some blurry shadows at first, and then these shadows became clearer and clearer. He could hear these ghost shadows in his ear, bewitching him, and Tai Yi's father told him about the fairy grandfather when he was a child. story, and seriously asked him: "No one can tell this matter, okay? Dad will find a way for you."

Little Tai Yi nodded, watching more and more peace talisman tools to drive away ghosts were placed on his bedside, although it was useless, he still comforted his father with a smile: "It's very useful, I can take anything with me." out of sight."

After a long time, Tai Yi can also distinguish what kind of ghosts still have a conscience, what kind of ghosts should not be approached, and he can also do not look at them or care about them. Occasionally, when he encounters a beggar and rolls around all over the place, he must be asked to help him do something. The ghost can only sigh and see if he can help.But the most is to bring some things, burn some paper money, and send a message to the living, no matter how many things Tai Yi doesn't have the ability to help, he doesn't dare to help.Fortunately, there are a few kind-hearted "elders" who have been protecting him.

Tai Yi just stepped on the boundary between Yin and Yang to live on. After a long time, in Tai Yi's eyes, the difference between the world of ghosts and the world of humans will not be very big. Occasionally, he will be in a trance, saying what the hell is he.

His thoughts were pulled back by the sound of the teacher knocking on the blackboard. It was not a few months before the college entrance examination, and it was already April. He had to spend this period safely.

After staying up all day in the afternoon, the weather forecast in the morning said that there will be heavy rain today, and a red warning was issued, but it doesn’t look like it will rain on this sunny day. From time to time, people in the class are whispering and discussing whether it will be early today. After school, the principal also waited and watched for a day to see if he would give the students an early study leave.Just as Tai Yi was thinking about it, he saw a large black cloud pouring out from the east at some point, as if the mountain rain was about to come, within a few minutes the whole sky was covered by dark clouds.

"Om-"

The phone vibrated, and Tai Yi took it out secretly and found that the school had issued a holiday notice. Since he was in the third year of high school, he could count on heavy rain and snow for a holiday.

During the recess, Tai Yi called his father to ask if he could pick him up today. Unfortunately, Tai Yi's father had an important meeting, and he would be unable to leave for a while.

"Son, you should go out and take a taxi earlier."

Tai Yi glanced out at the black clouds and said, "Okay, then come back early today."

After hanging up the phone, Tai Yi fumbled in his schoolbag before realizing that the umbrella had been left on the shoe cabinet, and after asking around, there was no one with an extra umbrella.

Liu Hua reminded him: "Why don't you go to the doorman and ask, the last time I didn't take an umbrella, I borrowed it from Uncle Xing at the door, he has too many umbrellas."

Tai Yi said yes, but he was still thinking about asking someone he knew in the outside class, if it wasn't for the fact that he couldn't borrow an umbrella, he really didn't want to deal with this Uncle Xing.

He can't tell the specific reason, but every time he passes by this uncle, he will smell a faint fragrance, which is not unpleasant, but this fragrance will be as greasy in the nasal cavity as if the nose is covered with Vaseline, and it will last for a long time , making him uncomfortable.

It just so happened that none of the few students from other classes that Tai Yi knew had extra umbrellas, so he sighed, forget it, let Mr. Guan borrow one.

In less than half an hour, it was four o'clock and it was already dark like seven o'clock in the evening. The willow trees outside the window were constantly beating against the glass by the wind. The students sitting by the bed looked outside and closed the curtains. stand up.

Staring at this black cloud, Tai Yi always felt uncomfortable. As soon as the bell rang for the end of the last class, he grabbed his schoolbag and rushed out. As soon as his feet were out of the gate of the teaching building, the rain poured down with a "shua" , was completely poured.

"I'm too upright about this." Tai Yi thought to himself, rushed to the guard room and opened the door and asked, "Master, that... I want to borrow an umbrella, and I will return it to you when I come tomorrow."

In the guard room was the strong smell of tobacco and that aroma, Tai Yi couldn't help holding his breath.

The doorman took a puff of the tobacco he rolled without making a sound, and reached out his hand to touch a row of umbrellas in the corner.

Tai Yi followed the direction of his finger, bent over and walked lightly, picked up an umbrella and tried to open it. At this moment, he heard the uncle suddenly ask him: "Young man, do you want to go home and cross the bridge?"

"bridge?"

Tai Yi was taken aback for a moment before realizing that the bridge the uncle said was a small stone bridge directly facing the school gate, and the tree-lined road outside the school gate was two narrow one-way streets, separated by a branch of the moat in the middle.The school gate is a one-way street from east to west, and it goes in the opposite direction after crossing the stone bridge.

Tai Yi is used to taking a taxi at the intersection of the boulevard on the side of the door. It is cheaper to take a taxi in this direction. If you cross the bridge and take a taxi from that road, you have to go a long way, and the price will be half as expensive.However, the west intersection on the side of the school is facing the hospital, and these students are always embarrassed to fight with the patients on weekdays.

Tai Yi said: "Not necessarily, let's see if you can get a taxi. If you can get a taxi, you will not cross the bridge."

But there must be a lot of patients going home from the hospital that day, Tai Yi said in his heart.

The uncle took another drag on his cigarette before slowly saying the next sentence: "It's not good to cross the bridge today."

Tai Yi didn't understand the meaning of this sentence and didn't want to ask more, so he just smiled in agreement, thinking about it, it probably means that the bridge will be slippery when it rains.

He stayed in the guard room for a few more minutes and waited for the rain to lighten up before going out. After waiting for a while, the rain did not lighten but became heavier. Tai Yi sighed silently and resigned himself to his fate. It would be even worse if the rain got heavier I took a taxi.

Exiting the school gate, Tai Yi looked to the west side, and as expected, not only were there many students coming out of the hospital, but also a large group of students and parents who rode electric scooters and wanted to take a taxi. Tai Yi lifted his foot and walked eastward for a few steps when he saw the person in front turning back.

"Student! What happened in front?" Tai Yi asked loudly.

The classmate waved his hand to him to signal that he couldn't get through: "Don't take a detour! The intersection has collapsed again, and there is too much water to see where it collapsed! It's too dangerous!"

Tai Yi took a few steps forward and took a closer look. The intersection really collapsed again. Looking at the small stone bridge in front of him, he remembered what Uncle Xing said just now. Although he was a little flustered, he still walked in the direction of the stone bridge. go.

When this stone bridge was built, I don’t know what proportion it was. The steps are flat and many. It is too wide to walk one step and two squares. After so many years of pedestrian walking, the stone steps are very smooth. The stone steps are rainy and snowy It's really slippery during the day.

Today, the rain came quickly and heavily, and the steps of the small bridge were like small waterfalls. Tai Yi rolled up his trouser legs, held an umbrella in one hand and supported the bridge in one hand, and stepped on the stone steps carefully.

After getting off the bridge and walking towards the intersection, I suddenly saw a little girl squatting under a tree, she looked like she was in the second or third grade, with her hands raised to block the rain, even in such a heavy rain, it was useless to block the rain. The child's whole body was soaked by the rain.

Tai Yi hurried over to take an umbrella to help her block the rain. That year too, there was a heavy rain at the end of spring. He didn't bring an umbrella and squatted under a tree waiting for his father. It was also that day that a speeding car knocked him down as he was running towards his father.

"Little friend, where are your parents?"

The little girl stood up and looked up at him: "I didn't come to pick me up, I was waiting for my mother."

"Why don't you go to the school gatekeeper and wait?" Tai Yi guessed that the child belonged to the nearby elementary school, "Do you remember your parents' phone number? I'll make a call for you and ask when they will come."

The little girl shook her head and said, "The teacher called and said he would be there soon, so I came out and waited."

Tai Yi thought for a while, took off his school uniform and put it on the little girl, and said, "Then I'll wait with you."

The little girl thanked him and asked him: "Brother, I want to wait for my mother a little ahead. She is coming from that direction, and I dare not go there. Can you send me there?"

Tai Yi said: "Okay, I want to go there too, let me lead you, the road is too slippery."

The little girl grabbed Tai Yi's hand obediently. At that moment, Tai Yi felt a piercing coolness creeping up his arm from the veins. After walking a few steps, he saw a black car approaching. The yellow headlights were shining in the rain. , the little girl let go of her hands and ran over there, shouting back as she ran, "Thank you brother! My name is Dodo!"

Tai Yi waved goodbye to her, and told her loudly: "You run slowly! Watch the road!"

"boom--!"

As soon as the words fell, the black car suddenly increased its speed and rushed towards Dodo. Tai Yi still raised his hand and looked at the car in a daze. He was only a few meters away from Dodo. If... .. If he held Dodo and prevented her from running, she wouldn't...wouldn't...huh?There is no car ahead.

No car, no flowers, nothing.

A chill crept up Tai Yi's back. He swallowed and was still a little dazed. He shivered unconsciously. After calming down for a few seconds, he took a closer look at the scene in front of him. Indeed, there were only He stood here alone with an umbrella, all those classmates and pedestrians disappeared, there were no cars or children, only the pouring rain.

"I...yes, pulling Dodo to me, my..."

Tai Yi raised the hand that had just held Duo Duo, his five fingers were gently clenched and opened, but what caught his eye was blood, the blood dripped down his fingers, and turned into strands of red threads in the stagnant water spread.

Tai Yi looked down, the stagnant water did not know when it had risen up to the ankles, and it was no longer cloudy, but a dark red with a fishy smell, and the eyes were yellow, like a piece of foggy glass. The dark red blood mixed a kind of reddish brown in this yellow.Tai Yi didn't know if it was blood or what, but he felt like he was frozen, unable to take a step forward no matter how trembling his legs were.

Like a blow to the head, Tai Yi suddenly remembered that Duo Duo was clearly the bloody child at the intersection!It's just why I couldn't see that she was a ghost just now?The paper money floating from nowhere slowly floated to Tai Yi's feet, spun a few times and sank to the bottom of the water, and then a steady stream of paper money floated around his feet.

"Brother, why don't you look at me?"

"Brother, why are you ignoring me?"

"Brother, why didn't you hold me back just now?"

"Brother! I'm in so much pain! That car hurt me so much——!"

Duo Duo suddenly appeared behind Tai Yi and held his hand. The girl's childish voice was sharp and piercing. Tai Yi didn't dare to turn his head. He threw away his hand and ran home with an umbrella. A wave of blood gushed out from the tall buildings and rushed towards him.

I don't know how long it took to get home, but I just remember that there was no one on the way, and the whole street was blood red, and I couldn't hear Duo Duo's screams until I entered the house.

Tai Yi didn't have time to change clothes or go back to the room, the sense of security when he entered the house made him feel relieved, and the ensuing feeling of exhaustion surged up and overwhelmed him, Tai Yi just felt that his eyes were blank and he fell directly to the living room floor He passed out, and half of the rain-soaked paper money still stuck to the bottom of his feet.

Tai's father carried the cake into the house, and when he looked down, he saw Tai Yi, whose face was burning white, and rushed him to the hospital. Tai Yi's fever persisted for several days, and the high fever did not subside until the fifth night People who go down are also transferred to general wards.

It was already the sixth night when the fever subsided completely. Tai Yi woke up sometimes and fell asleep. The time of waking up was very short every day. Not long after he opened his eyes, he felt that his eyelids were heavy and he fell into a drowsiness. The scene of Duoduo's car accident was repeated in front of her eyes.

It was already the morning of the eighth day when he fully woke up, and Tai Yi saw Sister Xiaohan sitting beside his bed and staring at him.

"Sister Xiaohan, why are you here? Am I in the hospital?" Tai Yi tried to sit up with his arms propped up. Sister Xiaohan is one of the "elders" who protect him, but she doesn't often appear in front of him, but Compared with the others, it can be regarded as being with him very frequently.

Xiaohan touched Tai Yi's forehead and said: "Don't get up and lie down, thank God you are awake, you ring the bed bell to call the nurse over, what happened to you, you are going to scare me to death, drink first Moisturize your throat."

Tai Yi recalled what happened that day and was still a little dazed in his head. He talked about it incongruously, and Xiaohan understood what was going on after he stroked it. Xiaohan thought for a while with a serious expression and said:

"It's not right. She has been there for so many years and hasn't done anything. Why did she attack you that day?"

Tai Yi's face turned pale when he heard this: "Miss Xiaohan, can you do anything? When I think about it now, she's still trembling in her heart."

Xiaohan shook her head and said, "That child died a terrible death. If I'm not mistaken, she still has a curse on her body. You should let your father drive you to school. Remember, don't look at her. If you can't do it, just keep shutting her down." Focus."

Seeing that Tai Yi woke up, the nurse quickly contacted the parents. Tai's father rushed to go through the discharge procedures. According to his wishes, he could rest at home for a few more days. After thinking about it, Tai Yi missed hundreds of papers after eight days of class No more rest.

The next morning, Tai's father took the initiative to send him to school. Tai Yi had been sick for more than a week. Yi was weak and was sent to the hospital this time.

"Son, Dad has already thought about it. If something happens to you, Dad will take you to your mother."

Tai Yi choked on the soy milk: "Huh?"

When he arrived at school, Liu Hua whistled at him: "Sister Dai Yi!"

Tai Yi rolled his eyes: "Go and stay on the sidelines, don't call me stupid nicknames."

The table was full of all kinds of papers, Tai Yi rolled them up into a roll and threw them on Liu Hua's head vigorously: "I don't favor you for a week and you are so lawless? You don't know how to clean up the papers! "

Liu Hua didn't avoid the paper that blocked him and grinned: "Hey, let me tell you, you have missed a big event with this serious illness!"

Looking at Tai Yi's curious eyes, Liu Hua lowered his voice slightly and said to him, "The math teacher had a big car accident, and these two days were all replaced by teachers from other classes."

Tai Yi was surprised: "Car accident? Is it serious? Did you go to the hospital?"

Liu Hua curled his lips: "That's for sure. The class committee and the others went. The teacher has spoken. Don't worry about him if you study hard, but...do you want to know something inside?"

Tai Yi looked at the overly vivid features on Liu Hua's face expressionlessly. In his opinion, Liu Hua's current expression was the kind of expression that would appear only for fanatical pyramid schemes. It reminded him that the beauty salon near his home would organize The employees stood at the door and shouted, "Work hard, work hard! Fight hard! Live in a villa today and drive a BMW tomorrow!"

Facing Liu Hua's expectant eyes, Tai Yi had no choice but to say: "I'm so curious, please tell me!"

Liu Hua saw that there was no teacher in front of the back door to check the self-study, pretending to discuss the problem, he leaned over and whispered: "The math teacher was hit on the road where the paper was burned. I heard that the car that caused the accident...is a ghost car, and the surveillance can't see it at all. When I arrived, I could only see a black shadow."

Tai Yi changed his mind and asked him, "What do you mean? What ghost car?"

Liu Hua said: "At the intersection, my mother said that a child was run over to death many years ago, and the death was very tragic, and the driver was very abnormal. A little background, my mother said that no one even reported this incident, but since then, there will be accidents at the intersection at about this time every year, do you think the kid feels that he is dead and seeks the help of the unlucky ghost every year?"

Tai Yi silently memorized what Liu Hua said, and then put on an impossible expression and said: "Where did you hear this from, your authenticity needs to be verified."

Liu Hua poked the table with his finger: "Tsk, don't believe me, the Sports Commission next door, his father is in charge of this case."

The class bell rang and the two stopped communicating. Tai Yi didn't do well throughout the class, and his mind was full of what Liu Hua said.If you are not mistaken, the child hit by this car accident is Dodo. If you recall carefully, Dodo's lower body is bloody and bloody. Although she is usually standing, Dodo followed Tai's father's car at a high speed this morning. Climbing and rolling.

When class was over, Tai Yi went to the office to work out the key points that had fallen in the past few days. He saw a man who seemed to be very young standing next to the grade director, but his back was turned to Tai Yi and he couldn't see his face clearly. He heard the grade director tell him that he would take the math class of the third class.

Tai Yi thought this might be the new math teacher, so he couldn't help but take a few more glances.

After school at noon, Tai Yi said to the doorman with an apologetic face: "I'm really sorry, I got sick that day when I got home from the cold and asked for several days off, the umbrella was broken by me, I will buy a new one of!"

"You don't need to buy it, it's not worth a lot of money, it's all a gift." Before he could finish speaking, Uncle Xing moved his head slightly forward a few times and changed his expression, "Have you crossed the bridge?"

Tai Yi's face turned pale when he heard this, and when Uncle Xing saw him like this, he knew he was right, this kid is disobedient.

"Why didn't you listen to Grandpa?"

"The road collapsed again, and I couldn't make a detour. I had to cross the bridge and take a taxi."

"Oh, so did you touch anything?"

Tai Yi's face turned pale again, and the uncle sighed again.

"God's will, God's will!"

Hearing the meaning of the old man's words, Tai Yi seemed to know that these things would happen, so he hurriedly asked him: "No, old man, do you know what is on the other side of the bridge?"

"That intersection... is very evil, did you bump into something?"

Tai Yi nodded with a pale face. This morning, Tai Yi's father drove him here. Tai Yi has kept his eyes tightly closed since he entered this road, but after all, he couldn't resist his curiosity. Seeing Duo Duo chasing after the car , crawling fast on the ground with twisted limbs, you can vaguely see blood stains behind you, Duo Duo's eyes are very big, black pupils occupy two-thirds of the eyeball area, and there are black and red blood from the corners of the eyes.Tai Yi didn't know why he could see so clearly, his neck was so stiff that he couldn't turn it back even though he was so scared.

Uncle Xing tore off a corner of the newspaper and wrote a string of numbers on it and handed it to him: "This person may be able to help you. You can call him and tell him that Uncle Xing introduced you."

Tai Yi was moved and kept saying thank you, if this matter can't be resolved, it will be a matter of time before Tai Yi feels that he will be driven crazy.

When I got home at night, I saw Miss Xiaohan playing with her mobile phone in his room, so I quickly closed the door of the room and talked quietly to Miss Xiaohan. Xiaohan asked a few ghosts I knew, and the stories I heard were similar to those told by Liu Hua. Probably true.After Xiaohan left, Tai Yi called the number on the note, but after calling three times, he was reminded that it was an empty number.

"I can't...I didn't make a mistake...I'll call again."

"Sorry, the number you dialed is an empty number...."

While making the call, Tai Yi thought: Could it be a typo, how can there be three zeros next to the phone, just as he was thinking, someone answered it over there.

There was no one answering, only the slight sound of breathing, Tai Yi drooled and felt a little nervous.

"Hello, hello?"

"What's the matter?" It sounded like he had just woken up.

"Well, I was introduced by Uncle Xing. I recently encountered something. Uncle Xing said that you can help..."

"No. 48 Yingyang Street, come on Sunday morning."

The person on the phone hung up after saying this.

Tai Yi couldn't help leaning forward: "Hello? Hello? No... I haven't finished yet."

The hanging on the opposite side was very simple, but Tai Yi felt more and more uneasy, the wind blowing in from the window made the safety amulet on the bedside jingle, Tai Yi went over and closed the window.He didn't know who to go to when he encountered this kind of thing, but now it seemed that there was no other solution except this way.

--------------------

The story of paper money was told by an old man in my family. Not only should you not step on it, but you should not look at it when others burn it. It is disrespectful to ghosts. Li unconsciously thinks of it.

The very beginning was also my own experience. Less than 50 meters to the west of my high school is our hospital, and next to it is a funeral street. The street I must pass to go to school is on the east side of the school, but there are people burning paper at the intersection. In 365 days of the year, there are 200 days in the morning when I have to fight paper money.

Another time when I went out to do errands, I rode a bicycle. There was a very large pure white hearse in front, and a white coffin was pulled behind. I blow it, T_T
