I don't believe in ghosts today

Zou Hao watched a movie, played games all night, went home and fell asleep full of sleep, sleeping in the warm bed until he woke up naturally, it was only three o'clock in the afternoon.

Zou Hao stared at the ceiling above his head, and heaved a long sigh.He used to naively think that he would be happy with paid vacation, but now he feels that he is a complete salty fish without a job.Looking at a freshly washed security uniform hanging on the balcony, Zou Hao recalled those happy nights in the past, he and Zheng Cheng sat in the security room and bragged all night, drinking wolfberry tea from a thermos, Baking the little sun, being happy and fulfilling, that is a meaningful life.

"Zheng Cheng, let's go to work tonight." Zou Hao sent a message to his younger brother.

Zheng Cheng replied a voice message, as if he had just woken up, his voice was still sticky: "Brother Hao, what work do you do, isn't today a holiday?"

"You are paid, but you don't go to work. Zheng Cheng, ask yourself, is your conscience okay?" Zou Hao felt that he was the embodiment of justice.

"Of course I'm sorry," Zheng Cheng replied in seconds, "I still want to ask Yunling to have a barbecue tonight."

Zheng Cheng really didn't have any enterprising spirit in his career. Zou Hao dropped his phone and heaved a long sigh.He straightened up like a carp, got out of bed with tenacious willpower, put on the casual clothes for going out, folded the freshly washed uniform and put it in his pocket, and went straight to the Baishi Building.

As soon as he entered the lobby, he saw Zhou Yunling was about to take the elevator with a strange boy.

"Wait a minute," Zou Hao called to the two of them, "What is he here for? Has he registered?" Zou Hao glanced at it, but the door of the security room was tightly closed, and there was probably no one on duty today.

Zhou Yunling was impatient. "Zou Hao, why is it you again? He's here for an interview, okay? Mr. Fan parked his car underneath, and he'll go up immediately."

"No," Zou Hao put his hands on his hips, full of air, "I have to register first for the interview."

Zhou Yunling puffed up her cheeks in anger, like a pressure cooker about to explode.After a while, Zhou Yunling let go of the anger in her mouth, turned her head, and signaled the boy beside her to follow Zou Hao. "Go, follow this security guard to register."

Zou Hao opened the door of the security room, took out the visitor registration book, stared at Liu Shen as he filled it out neatly one by one, and then signed his name in the column of "person on duty".

"Are you satisfied now?" Zhou Yunling's face softened a little, and she threw a small cube over, "For you."

Zou Hao caught it in the air, and took a look in his hand, it was a piece of dark chocolate.He held it in his hand and shook it at Zhou Yunling. "Thanks."

"What are you doing in a daze, eat," Zhou Yunling said, "Are you still afraid that I will be poisoned?"

"Then I'm not afraid." Zou Hao tore open the package and stuffed the chocolate into his mouth, the sweet taste filled his mouth immediately.

Only then did Zhou Yunling call the boy, and turned to leave.

Zou Hao suddenly thought of Zheng Cheng, and shouted at their backs: "Yunling, Zheng Cheng said he wanted to treat you to dinner tonight..." Before he could say the word barbecue, he felt dizzy suddenly, Zou Hao went to Lie down on the table and fell into a deep sleep.

When Zhou Yunling and Liu Shen reached the 18th floor together, Li Yifan was setting up the dojo.It was not yet dark outside, but the windows in the building were closed and the lights were not turned on, so there was an early silence of the night.

"The security guy downstairs is really haunted, and he's even more difficult to deal with than the one upstairs." Zhou Yunling complained.

"Zou Hao?" Li Yifan raised his eyebrows. "What's up with him?"

"I don't know which tendon is wrong. I arranged a paid vacation for him, and he ran over. I stuffed him with a piece of chocolate with a sleeping charm, and watched him eat it." At the mention of Zou Hao, Zhou Yunling puffed up her cheeks again.

Liu Shen was on the side, looking at the pile of props in front of him, a little dumbfounded: "Is this a trick?"

"Don't be afraid," Zhou Yunling comforted, "Although my master is young, he is a famous master of ghost hunting. You only need to sleep later, and we will take care of other matters."

Li Yifan set up a table at the entrance of 1081 as usual, spread a red cloth, put an incense burner and candles on it.A chair was placed a few meters away from the table, and two rows of candles were used to enclose a passage on the ground, connecting the chair to the front of the table, and the middle was covered with paper money.

After lighting the last candle on the ground, Li Yifan pointed to the chair and nodded to Liu Shen. "Come and sit down."

Liu Shen was a little nervous. After sitting down, he put his hands on his knees and clenched his pants tightly.

"Don't be afraid," Li Yifan squeezed his shoulder lightly, "Just sleep and you don't have to worry about anything."

"it is good."

After Liu Shen relaxed a little, Li Yifan raised a finger and put it in front of his eyes. "From now on, keep your eyes on my fingers."

Li Yifan began to shake his fingers slowly, and Liu Shen's eyes also moved left and right.Li Yifan's movements gradually accelerated and stabilized at a specific frequency.

"Now, you feel that your eyelids are getting heavier and heavier, so you gently close your eyes..."

Following Li Yifan's hint, Liu Shen slowly closed his eyelids.

"You are walking through a long tunnel, and there is light coming in at the end of the tunnel, and you are walking towards the light, step by step... Now, above your head is a sky full of dark clouds, and four comrades in arms are carrying a stretcher , and you're lying on a stretcher...they keep running, running...where are they going?"

Liu Shen's eyes were closed tightly, but his eyeballs kept turning.He began to speak, his voice sounded a little distant, and his tone was like another person who was completely different: "I was shot, they wanted to send me to a makeshift hospital, but it was too late, I died on the way..."

"Let's go back, back to an earlier, earlier time... Do you still remember, before you were shot, before you went to the battlefield, you graduated from the military academy and returned to your hometown in Sichuan..." Li Yifan didn't panic Busy, with a calm tone, a little bit brought back memories of Liu Shen.

A smile gradually appeared on Liu Shen's face. "I remember. I took the train home, and Rujuan came to pick me up at the station. She was wearing a blue cheongsam embroidered with bamboo leaves and a crescent white jacket. When she saw me, she shed tears of joy. Say, I must marry her..."

"Then why did you leave her again?" Li Yifan asked.

The smile on Liu Shen's face gradually became bitter. "It's a pity that the country is the word, the country comes first, and the family comes after... I can't bear her, and I can't forget my duty as a Chinese..."

"Do you want to see her?" Li Yifan asked again.

"Think about it, why don't you want to."

"She's here, go and call her."

With his eyes still closed, Liu Shen stood up from the chair and walked to the table step by step along the path paved by candles and paper money. "Rujuan, Rujuan?" He tentatively called out his lover's name.

With the candle light flickering, Du Rujuan walked out slowly from 1801. When he saw Liu Shen, he burst into tears: "Seventh Young Master... Where did you go, why didn't you go home?"

A line of tears flowed from Liu Shen's closed left eye. "Less than two months away from home, I died on the battlefield... Rujuan, I can't go back..."

"Do you know that I have been waiting for you?" Tears washed away layers of rouge and gouache on the woman's face, revealing her true appearance - an old woman over seventy years old, her youth has passed away, leaving only white hair and wrinkles . "I thought it was because I was getting old and ugly that you didn't want me..."

Liu Shen raised a hand and gently stroked the old woman's cheek. "You are not old at all, you are still so beautiful, the same as when I fell in love with you."

"You're talking nonsense," Rujuan cried, "If you love me, why would you abandon me and reincarnate alone?"

"Rujuan, do you know how tragic the war was? Naihe bridge was full of my comrades, shoulder to shoulder, foot to foot, pushing me forward, I couldn't turn back... The Wangchuan River under the Naihe Bridge was dyed red by our blood..." When Liu Shen mentioned that year, the pain and grief that completely didn't match his young and handsome features appeared on Liu Shen's face.

"I found a lot of Mr. Yin and Yang, and learned the magic of summoning souls from them. I thought that if you go to the underworld, you can still meet again. If I knew you would never come back, I would die with you... But I just don't want to die." I'm afraid that if you come back, I will definitely wait for you...why are you so cruel..."

Liu Shen stretched out his hand and hugged Du Rujuan, who was trembling from crying, into his arms. The 21-year-old young man and the seventy-year-old woman embraced each other and cried, but it was a reunion that spanned nearly a century and passed through life and death.Zhou Yunling sniffed, but Li Yifan handed her a piece of toilet paper without saying anything.

"Rujuan, don't wait for me, find a good family and reincarnate." Liu Shen gently patted Du Rujuan's shoulder and said softly. "The world is peaceful today, which is a rare good world. You are so good, there must be someone who loves you and loves you. Just live your life happily and forget about me."

Du Rujuan pushed Liu Shen away, wiped away tears, and showed a satisfied smile. "Seventh Young Master, seeing you this way makes my wish come true. Knowing that you have not let me down, I have not waited in vain all these years." Du Rujuan turned to Li Yifan and Zhou Yunling, bowed his head and said goodbye. "Thank you two masters. Since I agreed to you two, I will go to reincarnation and stop disturbing here. I stole a lot of rouge and gouache from the girls. I am really sorry."

Li Yifan waved his hand. "It's okay, I'll pay it back for you."

"Seventh Young Master, then I'll go." Du Rujuan finally raised his head and looked at Liu Shen, with affectionate eyes.She didn't go back to 1801, and her figure gradually faded away, disappearing into the air.

Liu Shen began to back slowly along the road paved with paper money. Every time he took a step, the candles passing by would be extinguished at the same time, until he retreated to the chair and sat down firmly.

Li Yifan walked to the table and recited the mantra of the past life to save Du Rujuan's ghost: "The Supreme Commander, surpassing your lonely soul, all ghosts and ghosts, all four lives will be blessed..." After chanting the mantra, he burned another handful of paper money to replace him. She manages in the underworld to help her reincarnate smoothly.

"Liu Shen, wake up." When everything was ready, Zhou Yunling gently shook Liu Shen's shoulder.

Liu Shen opened his eyes, tears still hanging on his face. "I had the same dream just now, but this time the woman who was sitting by the window dressing up turned her head, but she was young and beautiful, and said to me with a smile, you are finally back..."

Li Yifan's hand was already in his pocket, after hearing Liu Shen's words, he hesitated for a moment, and put down his hand that had touched the gum box.Let him remember this dream. "Yunling, take Liu Shen home."
