Chapter 081
I wondered why Ding Ding suddenly lowered his voice when he was talking so well, but as soon as he finished speaking, the door of the ward was pushed open. I turned around and saw that it was the little ghost who came back. He was holding a paper bag in his hand, which was bulging with something.
Seeing that I was not asleep yet, the little ghost smiled evilly and said that it was rare, as I usually slept like a pig, so why were I so energetic today?
After saying that, he waved the paper bag in his hand towards me and said, "I guess you must be hungry, so I bought some food."
I nodded and whispered to Ding Ding, how do you know the little ghost is back?
Ding Ding smiled and said, "I smell the fragrance."
I looked at him speechlessly without saying anything. I took the thing handed to me by the kid and saw that it was from the bun shop downstairs from my rental house.
I was delighted and asked him how he knew I liked to eat this?
The little ghost raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why do you like to eat it too?"
As he said this, he pointed at Ding Ding and said, I thought he was the only guy who liked to eat it. He has been pestering me to buy it for him many times.
Ding Ding's mouth was full and he nodded at me happily.
I put the bun in my mouth and took a bite. I don't know if it was because of the atmosphere of this hospital or because my injuries hadn't healed completely, but it didn't taste the same as before. After filling my stomach casually, I asked Xiaogui, "You have been here all this time, so don't you and Guiche have to work?"
While chewing a bun, the little ghost reached out and stroked his hair on his forehead, saying, "Let's put it aside for now, maybe after a while. I don't dare to run around now. If I'm too far away from you, I might be silenced."
I nodded, took a sip of water to wash down the lump in my throat, and said, "This is strange. Why would they bother you for no reason? Even if we both saw the true form of Painted Skin, it wouldn't have any impact afterwards. Why would they pick on you?"
Just as the kid was about to speak, Ding Ding took the lead and started to imitate him, but his mouth was too full and a lot of food sprayed out when he opened his mouth, making it almost impossible for me to eat anymore.
He quickly took a sip of water and said, "You silly bird, always think positively. You should know that to Painted Skin and the others, having us by your side is a hidden danger no matter how you look at it. The sooner they get rid of us, the more at ease they will be."
In my heart, I do think this idea is a bit far-fetched, but Ding Ding also told me that after he returned home and found his house had been burned down, he originally planned to live in my rental house for a while. Although he couldn't remember the way, he remembered the address and found it without much effort. But when he got there, he found that during his absence he had attracted a house full of ghosts.
He was in a low mood at the time and had no intention of taking care of them. After thinking about it, he decided to find a hotel to stay in, but before he took a few steps, he met the nightmare!
It seemed like this guy had been waiting there, targeting Ding Ding, and had been chasing him.
Ding Ding said that he was going crazy during those days, and he almost didn't dare to sleep at night, for fear that he would be possessed by the nightmare as soon as he closed his eyes. He almost had to hang his head on the beam and prick his bones to keep himself alert. He finally got rid of the nightmare and was going to get some ghost tombs from my rental house so that he would be prepared. Unexpectedly, he saw me when he went there.
He wanted to come up and say hello to me, but then he noticed Lu Yao beside me. Although she pretended very well at that time and Ding Ding didn't realize her identity, he didn't know the relationship between Lu Yao and me. He hesitated for a moment and ran to the roof of the opposite building to observe first.
It suddenly dawned on me that this must be referring to the time when he saved me by shooting an arrow at the devil.
But Ding Ding said, "No, I was on the opposite building at that time. I didn't expect that Meng Mo and Erkounu would come. They were like two mad dogs. They bit me and wouldn't let go. Before I could say anything, they started fighting. As a result, the rooftop was small. I couldn't run away or fight. I was forced into a corner. How could I have time to care about you?"
I patted him on the shoulder, smiled and said, "You are being too modest . If it weren't for your arrow at that time, I don't know what would have happened to me. Maybe in the end, Lu Yao would have been exposed."
Ding Ding scratched his head and said to me very seriously, "You think too much. I was forced to no end by the two-mouthed woman and the nightmare at that time. I was almost falling down when I was at the edge of the building. Fortunately, I was quick-witted and threatened them with your life. In the end, neither of them believed me. I saw the opportunity and shot an arrow at you, but my hand shook at that time , and I missed you and shot the arrow at the wall. Fortunately, the two-mouthed woman hesitated for a moment, giving me a chance to escape."
Tintin said this with a satisfied laugh, very satisfied with his wit and decisiveness at the time. I was the only one who was stunned when I heard it. I looked at the little ghost and saw that he was also smiling like a flower. It seemed to be telling me that Tintin was just like this.
I was so angry at that time that I kicked Ding Ding off the bed and cursed, "Damn it, you wanted to kill me at that time!"
The hanged ghost was also very angry. He immediately stood up and started gesticulating and scolding Tintin. Tintin was also very unconvinced. He got up from the ground and cursed, "My life is about to be lost, so why should I care whether you live or die?"
The hanged ghost got even angrier when he heard this, and he raised his head and slashed Tintin on the head. This slash destroyed the feelings that Tintin had built up from the story. Tintin was stunned for a moment, then he rolled up his sleeves and started fighting with the hanged ghost.
Xiao Gui and I were both stunned for a moment, but the two of them were in such a tacit understanding that no one paid any attention to them and no one even said a word to stop the fight.
We both pretended not to see them. The little ghost cleared his throat, laughed, and asked me, "Tan Xi, you see I can only follow you for a while. Do you have any plans so that I can be prepared? But let me tell you first, except for being able to leave my soul, I have no other abilities, so don't count on me."
I nodded and said I knew that.
The kid didn't respond immediately. He thought for a while and said, "Why don't you first sort out for me which people are trustworthy and which are not, so I can be prepared."
I thought this was right, and I should analyze the current situation carefully. I picked up a piece of white paper and a pen from the cabinet beside me and started writing and drawing on it.
The above is basically my side, with my name, Ding Ding, Xiao Gui, and Gui Che. I wanted to add Lin Tian, but then I thought about it and decided not to.
Next is Lu Yao's group. Now we know that there are Xie Ning, Mo Meng, the water ghost, and my uncle. Of course, the scattered ghosts controlled by my uncle are not included.
The ones mentioned above are probably the two hostile forces now, but because I cannot die, the relationship between them is a little subtle.
I handed this to the kid, he looked at me helplessly and said that you made it too simple.
As he said this, he took the pen from my hand, added something on it, and asked me, "And this, how do you classify it?"
I saw that he wrote a corpse doll, with a line behind it and a question mark at the end, which means the person who made the corpse doll. Then I remembered that this corpse doll came out of nowhere and was merciless when it attacked. It was not like Xie Ning and the others who knew to leave me a breath. So it seems that the person who made the corpse doll is not in the same group as Lu Yao and the others.
In other words, there is a third-party force behind the scenes that I don't know about. According to what I know, the deaths of Brother Wang and the headless female corpse happened before I left, and then a few more people died, and only then was a complete corpse doll pieced together.
The person who made the corpse doll probably didn't know what happened to me in my hometown, so he was only focused on snatching the blood amber and didn't care about my life.
I was just thinking about this when Tintin came over again. It seemed that he and the hanged man had finished their fight.
Ding Ding's hair was messy, but he had a smug smile on his face. He slowly put down his rolled-up sleeves and said with a smile, "This little guy, if I don't teach him a lesson, he won't know why I'm so awesome."
When I heard this, I guessed that he had won the fight. I turned around to look at the hanged man and found that he was very depressed. He ran to the corner again, swung the rope, and hanged himself on the southeast branch.
I sighed. If I didn't have a good heart, I wouldn't be able to stand them.
Ding Ding glanced at the paper in my hand and immediately realized what Xiao Gui and I were doing. He looked at it for a while and said, "No, it's not right. It's just that little bit short."
After saying that, he picked up the pen and wrote a lot of words on the paper, just like Xiao Gui did before, and then put it in front of us. Ding Ding wrote and drew at the same time, and there was a very abstract picture next to his name, making the paper a mess.
I saw that he added the Lin Tian family as one of the names, and he didn't put it in my column, but between us and Lu Yao's group. I was a little puzzled. I haven't told him about Lin Tian's father yet, but why do I feel like he already knows about it?
Ding Ding explained that he always felt that everyone in the photo was related. There was something wrong with their previous generation, and that caused us to suffer as well.
I didn't say anything, but I thought what he said was right.
After thinking about it, I added the names of people like Mrs. Jiu and put them in the middle of the paper. I also drew a big question mark around the man who looked like Tintin's father. The same went for the mysterious man that Tintin guessed that Mrs. Jiu was hiding from.
Now it is clear at a glance that the key points we need to focus on are the three big question marks in this picture, namely the maker of the corpse doll, the man who is similar to Tintin's father, and the mysterious man who forced Mrs. Nine to hide.
I don't know if there is any relationship between these three people, or maybe they are actually the same person. But now we need to distinguish them and check them one by one, which may be a problem of starting with the easy and then moving on to the difficult.
After listening to my explanation, Ding Ding and Xiao Gui nodded repeatedly, but Ding Ding suddenly pointed to a name on the picture and asked me, who is this person with the surname Tan?
When I saw that his place was in the middle, I actually just added that name when I wrote down Mrs. Jiu and her group, but I didn't think these things had anything to do with him.
The place where Ding Ding pointed was written with my father's name.
