I don't believe in ghosts today

"The child has to be found from Qin Yan's side, Xiao Zou certainly can't just go back like this, let Xiao Li go back and look for it by himself." Mistress Duan said.

"Then, why am I waiting here?" When Zou Hao thought of the picture of himself sitting in the hot pot restaurant every day, waiting for Li Yifan to come back, he felt like a resentful woman. "And, if he goes alone, what if he is in danger?"

"What you said is not unreasonable." Duan Duan's eyes fell on Zou Hao's face. "Then next, I have to let you learn about 'spirit out of body'."

"I don't need to learn, I will! Let me do it!" Zhou Yunling, who was cleaning at the side, dropped the rag and ran over with her hands raised.

"That's not acceptable. We agreed that you must work here for a month." Mistress Duan resolutely refused.

Zhou Yunling pursed her lips and walked away resentfully.

"I'll go by myself." Li Yifan said. "Ah Cheng has a deep injustice, and Rao Qingtong is unpredictable. It would be too dangerous for Zou Hao to go."

"But—" Zou Hao still wanted to fight, but the invisible hand patted the top of his head lightly.

"Okay, this matter is decided. I will come back before dark. Eat well and wait for me obediently."

After Li Yifan finished speaking, the air became quiet.

"Li Yifan? Li Yifan?" Zou Hao tentatively called him.

Goddess Duan shook her head. "He's gone. You're idle too. Why don't you help me wash the dishes?"

Zou Hao hurried upstairs. "I'm busy!"

He took out his mobile phone and played the game all morning, but he was absent-minded. He lost more than a dozen games in a row, and was reported by his teammates that he could no longer play ranked.When it was time for lunch, Li Yifan hadn't come back yet, and Zou Hao had no appetite at all, so he put down his chopsticks after taking two mouthfuls of rice.

"Eat quickly!" Goddess Duan tapped his bowl with her chopsticks. "It's because you don't work that you can't even eat. Go and help Blind Xu wash the vegetables in the afternoon."

"Mrs. Duan, why hasn't he come back yet?" Zou Hao rested his cheeks and was full of thoughts.

"Didn't you agree to come back at night? He is the apprentice of the old god Zhu, so why worry about it." Duan Duan gave him a white look.

"That's right," Uncle Xu stroked his beard, "Even my old bone, I have to call him Master Li."

Zhou Yunling put several pieces of meat into Zou Hao's bowl. "Hurry up and eat. When Master comes back and finds you hungry, we can't afford to blame us for not taking good care of you."

Zou Hao took one mouthful and stuffed the dish into his mouth, but he couldn't taste any of it.

After lunch, Goddess Duan will take a nap, so Uncle Xu and Zhou Yunling can also be lazy and sit on the side of the street basking in the sun for a while.

Zou Hao thought, if he asked Zhou Yunling for help, she would be afraid that if something happened, Li Yifan would come back and blame him.In contrast, Uncle Xu should be easier to buy.

"Uncle Xu, count your fortune for me." Zou Hao walked to Uncle Xu.

"Okay," Uncle Xu stretched out his right hand unceremoniously, "two hundred times."

Zou Hao glanced at Zhou Yunling who was beside Uncle Xu. "How about we go under the tree across the street and count?"

"Who cares to know?" Zhou Yunling snorted coldly, stood up and patted the ashes on her buttocks. "I'm going to take a nap too. Blind Xu, you must treat him as a lonely person, and die alone forever."

"Bah, bah, bah!" Zou Hao hurriedly babbled off the unlucky words.

When Zhou Yunling went upstairs, Zou Hao quietly asked Uncle Xu: "Can you teach me, the soul out of the body that Goddess Duan said? I want to find Li Yifan."

"Didn't you tell me everything? He must be fine." Uncle Xu waved his hand. "Don't worry about it."

"I'll give you the money to pay the tuition, okay?" Zou Hao stared at the black glasses on Uncle Xu's face, determined to win.

Uncle Xu really let go: "Then...it's not impossible at all."

"How much do you want?" Zou Hao asked hurriedly.

Uncle Xu stroked his beard and slowly stretched out two fingers.

"Two thousand?" Zou Hao asked tentatively.

Uncle Xu shook his head.

"Twenty thousand?" Zou Hao covered his chest.

Uncle Xu still shook his head.

"I won't study anymore." Zou Hao stood up with a groan. "He loves to come back or not!"

Just as he turned around and took two steps, Zou Hao suddenly regretted it again.Li Yifan is not worth even 20 to him?If Li Yifan really can't come back, what's the use of the money for him?

Zou Hao went back and sat in front of Uncle Xu, his heart skipped a beat. "20 is 20!"

Uncle Xu laughed: "Since you want to learn so much, I won't take your money. But when Master Li blames it, you can't say that I taught it."

Zou Hao nodded again and again, and then remembered that Uncle Xu couldn't see it, so he quickly agreed: "Okay!"

"Once your soul leaves your body, the world you perceive will be very different from the real world. Time and space will be disrupted, rearranged according to your own inner logic, and become like a maze. In this maze , there will be many hidden forks that will lead you to the underworld on purpose. Once that happens, your soul will be reincarnated, and your body will become a vegetative state, and you will never be able to wake up again. Have you figured it out clearly?"

"Think clearly." Before Zou Hao pulled out his wisdom teeth, the dentist also told him that the operation might damage the nerves and cause facial paralysis, but he is not well yet.

"You are not familiar with that world yet, so you must remember that you must never take a path you don't know."

Uncle Xu finished giving his final instructions, and gently placed a hand on top of Zou Hao's head. "You empty your consciousness, don't think about anything, and focus on the sky cap."

Zou Hao complied one by one.

"The star on the stage is constantly responding. Exorcising evil spirits, protecting life and body. Wisdom is clear and peaceful, and the mind is peaceful. The three souls are eternal, and the soul is never lost." Uncle Xu recited in a low voice.This spell sounds very familiar, it seems that Li Yifan has also recited it.

"Now, stand up slowly."

Zou Hao stood up refreshed and did not notice anything unusual.

"What are you two doing!" Witch Duan scolded suddenly from behind.

When Zou Hao turned around, he realized that he was still sitting motionless on the small bench in front of Uncle Xu.

"Wait, then who am I..."

When he looked down, his body turned out to be translucent, floating in the air.

Uncle Xu pursed his lips and smiled. "As expected of the person selected by Master Li, he really has some roots of wisdom."

"Stop messing around, go back quickly!" Mistress Duan rushed over holding a feather duster.

Zou Hao dodged backward subconsciously, but the path under his feet suddenly changed.After leaving the hot pot restaurant, it is the road leading to the Baishi Building.Li Yifan should be there.

"Little Zou! Stop!" Mistress Duan shouted behind him.

Zou Hao took a deep breath, turned his head and ran towards Baishi Building.
