Ji Ran saw the person who texted him.

"It's you?" Ji Ran looked at the familiar girl in front of him, a polite smile appeared on her face, and then nodded to Ji Ran: "I'm sorry to trouble you."

She was one of Qiao Hui's best friends, probably got Ji Ran's contact information from Qiao Hui, and sent him a text message.

"Master, I just want to ask you to help my aunt. Money is not a problem, the main reason is that my aunt has not listened to persuasion or let us intervene recently. She is completely bewildered..."

The girl looked up at Gu Yunhuan, then looked at Ji Ran with confusion.

The girl didn't want Gu Yunhuan to get involved, it was her own private matter after all.

However, Gu Yunhuan quickly saw what the girl was thinking, but he took Gu Yunhuan's arm and said seriously: "He has to stay with me." Otherwise, Ji Ran was afraid that he would get lost.

Naturally, Ji Ran would not tell the girl his weakness, and the girl could only nod her head in agreement, and then sighed helplessly: "You two are really good couples."

"Huh?" Gu Yunhuan raised an eyebrow.

Ji Ran almost forgot about this.

When the girl in front of him spoke, Ji Ran was taken aback for a moment, and then almost buried his head in shame.

——It’s true which pot is not opened and which pot is lifted.

"How do you know we're a couple?" Gu Yunhuan looked into the girl's eyes.

The girl didn't hide anything. "The master told us, it doesn't matter, we are all college students, and we won't have any prejudice against you."

"Let's talk about your aunt's family first. I don't want to talk about my personal affairs."

Ji Ran immediately interrupted the girl's next words and brought the topic back to the point.

But Ji Ran can always feel that there are two interested eyes on him beside him, which makes Ji Ran feel like a light on his back.

He had never regretted it so much as now.

The situation of the girl's aunt can be summed up very simply. A few years ago, after her only son died, she fell ill and woke up in a daze.After she went to the temple to pray to the Buddha, she came back and murmured about trying to summon ghosts. During the Spring Festival, she even set up countless incense burners at home, and was very excited to tell relatives around that the ghosts were really called back at home.

"She said she heard noises in the bathroom at night. When she passed by, there was no one there, but the bottle of shower gel fell out of thin air. And there was that gurgling sound, which was very weird."

The girl is worried.

But Ji Ran suddenly asked another question: "Is your aunt and husband on good terms?"

"Is it okay? My aunt is married twice, and the new uncle looks taciturn."

Ji Ran shook his head.

He guessed something, but still hoped to go to the girl's aunt's house to see the situation for himself.

The girl's aunt lives in a very nice flat in the center of the city.

As soon as they opened the door, they could smell the faint scent of incense ash. There were thick curtains drawn everywhere in the house, and three burnt incense burners were placed on the table, and wisps of smoke drifted from the ashes.

The woman's slightly tired eyes fell on Ji Ran's face, but she still welcomed the three of them into the house relaxedly.

"Why are you here? Who are these two?"

"I invited you here to help Auntie exorcise ghosts." The girl patted Auntie's knee.

Auntie grabbed her clothes in an instant, she shook her head fiercely: "I don't need you to help me exorcise ghosts."

She looked very nervous, and Ji Ran looked at the tall figure behind the woman, and for a moment doubted his conclusion just now.

"We just want to see if there is anything that can help you." Ji Ran persuaded the woman in a warm voice.

However, the attitude of the woman opposite was very firm: "I don't need others to help me exorcise ghosts. There are no ghosts in my room anymore, so I don't need your help."

After she finished speaking, she stood up: "I'll help you get the fruit, don't move the incense burner on the table."

Ji Ran looked at the boy standing behind the sofa and said nothing.

"Master, why don't you look around. There are really unclean things in the room, I really felt it that night..." The girl rubbed her arms, feeling that the atmosphere in the room was extraordinarily cold and terrifying.The smell of incense from the tip of the nose was strong and pungent, and there was only a small opening in the dark room, making the room gloomy.

Gu Yunhuan looked at Ji Ran suspiciously.

"Like, really not."

He felt nothing.

Gu Yunhuan's perception of shady creatures is even more sensitive than some masters. Although the room is gloomy, it's just that the air is stuffy.

He couldn't feel it, how could the ordinary couple living in the house feel it.

"Yes, there are not ghosts in the house." Ji Ran's eyes fell on the boy opposite, he suddenly turned around and asked the girl, "Can I go to their son's room to see?"

"Yes, it's over there." The girl pointed to a room.

Ji Ran nodded.

He pushed the door open and entered the room, then closed the door behind his back.

A wisp of black floated into the door, the boy looked at Ji Ran, and after a moment of silence he said: "You can see me."

"Yeah." Ji Ran laughed. "You've been following her to make trouble?"

"I... It's me. I just want to see them again, don't touch me, I want to see them again."

Ji Ran didn't say anything, just shook his head helplessly.

When he went out, the aunt had already returned to the sofa.

When she saw Ji Ran going out, she was not angry, but told: "Don't rummage through my son's things, he will be angry if he sees it."

The girl just wanted to remind the bewildered aunt, but was stopped by Ji Ran, who instead asked many things in a gentle voice.

For example, what happened at home, and when it happened.

"My house, there will be some strange noises at night, but that's nothing, it's all over." The woman clutched the hem of her clothes tightly, and her tone of voice seemed slow. "He would come at night, purr in his room, in my son's room, and sometimes sweep his favorite toys on the floor...and also secretly go to the bathroom to fill up the water and take a shower."

"Did you discover it all?"

"I'm sure I can't help the boy while he's in the shower, but I've bumped into him a couple of times when he was holding the shower gel."

"A man?"

"No, ghosts just sweep things to the ground when they take things."

Auntie had a happy smile on her face.

"He stayed with me for the last time, and now he's gone..."

"The master said that he wanted to spend the Spring Festival with me, and he would leave completely after the Spring Festival."

"Auntie!" The girl couldn't listen anymore: "He has already left, you should be more open, my brother doesn't want you to be like this."

"He came back to see me! He didn't leave at all!"

The aunt retorted hoarsely, and when she finished speaking, her eyes were already red.

Before the girl could say anything more, Ji Ran interrupted the girl's conversation.

He just looked at his aunt quietly and asked a simple question: "Is your husband at home every time there are ghosts?"

"He was at home, he said he was afraid that I would be afraid, so he stayed with me all the time..."

Ji Ran nodded.

The girl next to her had a suspicious look on her face, but Ji Ran just smiled and said, "I just found a note in the corner of that room."

"Ok?"

Aunt immediately sat up.

"You can go and have a look."

Ji Ran crossed his fingers, his eyes were gentle.

Gu Yunhuan immediately sensed something was wrong from Ji Ran's expression.

He watched the emaciated woman return to the room, and then there was an exclamation in the room.

All the voices behind were reduced to silence, and the rustling of crying and talking sounded out. Although the voice didn't sound real, it could be heard who she was talking to.

"She..." The girl stood up and wanted to go in to persuade her, but was stopped by Ji Ran.

"She needs to vent."

"Don't you really care?"

"There are no ghosts in the house, and she will figure it out on her own later. Outsiders can't keep intervening in other people's housework." Gu Yunhuan patted the girl on the shoulder, and the girl bit her lip, but in the end she didn't break into the door.

"It's not a ghost thing. We don't need to stay for so long. I'll go back first."

Ji Ran grabbed Gu Yunhuan's wrist, the girl had something to say, but Ji Ran had already walked to the door first.

"That's right." Ji Ran turned around: "Your aunt and her husband and wife have a very good relationship, so you don't have to think so much."

After going out, Gu Yunhuan tilted his head and asked, "Is there no ghost in their house?"

"There are indeed ghosts in their house, but all this is not caused by ghosts."

Ji Ran looked back at the house hidden in the thick curtain, and for a moment he just wanted to feel that life is impermanent.

"Her son ran away from home after a quarrel with her, and died on the way to save people. Her son has been with her all the time, trying to tell her that his death should be something to be proud of, and let her not feel guilty... But her son is fine Resentment, so there is no way to do anything with the real world.”

"So I asked her to meet her son."

Gu Yunhuan thought of the sound coming from her aunt after she entered the door just now, and immediately understood.

"That noise?"

"Like I said, human beings are the most capable creatures." When Ji Ran said this, he felt inexplicably warm in his heart: "Her son can't do it, but her husband can."

"Her husband is up to something?"

"Because she wanted her to spend the Spring Festival with peace of mind, the master of the United Temple said that her son's soul would accompany her through the whole Spring Festival. The trick of pretending to be a ghost is just to make her feel at ease."

While talking, the two passed by a man carrying ribs.

The man smiled at the two of them, and then went home with the ribs.

Ji Ran looked back and saw the door opened, the aunt threw herself into the man's arms and said something, and the man hugged her tenderly, bowed his head and said something.

"You see, the relationship between their family is very good."

"People will pretend to be gods and ghosts, but not necessarily for gaining benefits, it may also be to reassure the living."

Gu Yunhuan nodded.

He suddenly said: "Then their matter is settled, you can tell me, how did you tell others that we are a couple?"

Ji Ran turned around in embarrassment.

"You...how do you still remember this?"

- It's been a day!How is his memory so good!
