Chapter 10: Nonsense
After class, I immediately called Wang Yinyang. When Wang Yinyang heard about it, he immediately asked me what task the gatekeeper of the underworld had given me. When I told him, he immediately told me seriously.
Burning money in front of the classroom is a very particular act. This behavior is called burning ghost money. It can increase the power of ghosts. This made me suddenly realize it is no wonder that the gatekeeper of the underworld gave us such a task, and a person died.
"By the way, I saw the true form of the gatekeeper of the underworld. It was that female ghost." I said.
"Really? That's easy. I need you to do a few things." Wang Yinyang said.
"Can't you come to the school? With your ability, you should be able to deal with the female ghost, right?" I couldn't help but ask.
Who knows Wang Yinyang told me that ghosts are not so easy to deal with. We must find out how strong the female ghost in our classroom is. If it is an ordinary ghost, he can deal with it, but if it is a powerful ghost, even he can't deal with it.
Hearing him say that, I was disappointed. I didn't expect that even Wang Yinyang couldn't deal with ghosts. Does that mean we still have to endure the domination of the gatekeeper of the underworld?
But Wang Yinyang's words reminded me. He told me to put a bowl of rice in the classroom and look at the color of the rice. If it turns a little black, it means the female ghost is not strong. If it turns completely black, it means the ghost is extremely strong. He can't deal with it at all.
Hearing this, I nodded hurriedly. Then during the fourth class in the afternoon, I found a way to get a bowl of rice and placed it in the middle of the classroom.
I looked at the rice in front of me, feeling nervous. After a while, the white rice in my bowl gradually turned black, and then spread rapidly. Soon, half of the rice in front of me turned black.
When I put down the bowl, I was stunned. Half of the rice in the bowl had turned black. What on earth was going on? Was Han Ziyu really that powerful?
With this thought in mind, I called Wang Yinyang.
Wang Yinyang then told me that half of the rice changed color, which meant that although Han Ziyu was a fierce ghost, her resentment was not deep. It should be possible to deal with him. Hearing this, I finally breathed a sigh of relief. Now I can only put my hope on him.
After all, I had no idea how to deal with ghosts, and I knew nothing about the supernatural.
I began to ask Wang Yangming how to get rid of Han Ziyu, but Wang Yinyang told me that it is not so easy to get rid of the evil spirit. It takes a very troublesome process to deal with her.
However, in order to live a normal life, I am willing to agree to Wang Yangming's terms no matter what.
Wang Yangming told me that if I wanted to get rid of Han Ziyu, I first needed to cut my finger, lead Han Ziyu to a place, and then lock her in this place. But doing so is extremely dangerous. He advised me not to try.
But I didn't care at all at this moment, I decided to use his method. At this time, Wang Yinyang told me that Han Ziyu was a fierce ghost, and the usual methods were ineffective against her. She had to be led to a haunted place.
When I heard him say that, I was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly I remembered. Isn't there a haunted place in the school? It is the abandoned warehouse of the school. A big thing happened there.
At that time, several students got into a fight and beat a boy to death. After that, several other students also died suddenly. Since then, people often say that the ghost of that boy lives in the abandoned warehouse of the school.
Therefore, that place became a forbidden area in the school. The school repeatedly ordered everyone not to enter this place, otherwise they would be expelled.
Now it seems that that place is the best haunted place. But Wang Yinyang's words made me very confused. Why should we find another haunted place to deal with Han Ziyu?
When I asked about my doubts, Wang Yinyang answered me like this: "Generally speaking, ghosts have their own territories. Ghosts will wander around in the territories. This is why there are dead people in haunted places."
"If you lead Han Ziyu to that place, you can let the two ghosts fight each other, and then Han Ziyu's power will be weakened. It will be much easier for me to deal with it."
After hearing this, I suddenly realized that Wang Yinyang's plan was actually like this. But this is also a good thing.
Thinking of this, I stopped hesitating and quickly separated my fingers. When blood appeared on my fingers, I clearly felt a chill on my back. It seemed that something was watching me.
At this moment, I suddenly realized that Han Ziyu was behind me. My body was shaking with fear, but I didn't dare to look back. At this moment, I put down my phone, but I didn't know what to do.
Just lure Han Ziyu out like this? But will she kill me?
Just as I was thinking about this, I suddenly heard a hoarse voice behind me: "You have been deceived. I am not the gatekeeper of the underworld at all."
When I heard this voice, I was stunned. Although the voice was cold and hoarse, I knew it was Han Ziyu as soon as I heard it.
She actually spoke, and she spoke to me.
I was stunned for a moment, and strange thoughts emerged in my mind. Is what she said true? She is not the gatekeeper of the underworld at all? Is Wang Yinyang lying to me? But he has no reason to lie to me.
What good would this do for him? I was puzzled. After thinking for a while, I said without turning my head, "Since you said you are not the gatekeeper of the underworld, then who is the gatekeeper of the underworld?"
Who knew that after I said this, there was no echo around me, and the cold feeling behind me seemed to disappear. I turned my head carefully, and sure enough, I didn't see Han Ziyu.
At this time I breathed a sigh of relief. Zhao Pengyu came over and looked at me strangely, then said, "What's wrong with you? You look scared."
"Nothing." I shook my head, and then blurted out: "Maybe Han Ziyu is not the gatekeeper of the underworld at all?"
"That's impossible." Who knew that Zhao Pengyu looked at me and said suspiciously: "Everyone has basically determined that she is the gatekeeper of the underworld. After all, she is in our class now."
"But..." I hesitated for a moment, then shook my head, my heart full of doubts.
I don't know why, but I always feel that what Han Ziyu said might be true. She is not the gatekeeper of the underworld at all. There is no need for her to harm us.
But if what she said was true, then it would prove that Wang Yin Yang was lying to me. But why would Wang Yin Yang lie to me? He had no reason at all, and I had never given him a penny?
I was thinking about this in my head, and suddenly I thought of something, so I asked hurriedly: "Zhao Pengyu, do you know where the old man invited by the squad leader lives?"
"I actually know this. I know this person and he is very famous in our local area." Zhao Pengyu said.
"Oh, this is it. Tell me his address. I have something to discuss with him," I said.
"Yes." Zhao Pengyu nodded and told me the address.
Soon I left school and even stopped attending evening self-study classes.
Now I really want to figure out who deceived me? Was it Han Ziyu or Wang Yinyang?
Following the address Zhao Pengyu told me, I came to the old man's home. But when I got here, I saw that a mourning tent had been set up. From time to time, there were bursts of mourning music.
When I walked over, I saw several people in mourning clothes, sitting on chairs and talking.
I walked over and my eyes inadvertently swept across the mourning shed, but I was suddenly stunned.
The portrait in the mourning shed was the old man that the squad leader had invited. Who would have thought that he was dead now!
I walked forward and looked at the middle-aged men. After a moment's hesitation, I asked, "When and how did the old man die?"
A middle-aged man looked at me and said gently, "He died the day before yesterday."
The day before yesterday? Wasn't that the day the squad leader invited him? Could it be that he died when he came back? My face changed and I felt cold all over. I turned around and asked in surprise, "How did he die?"
Seeing my expression, the middle-aged man continued, "When he came back the day before yesterday, he said something about the secrets of heaven that cannot be revealed. Then he suddenly became seriously ill and passed away."
“I see.”
I said this and then turned my head away with a dull expression. At this moment, I felt confused. What happened in such a short period of time was so unbelievable that I could not cope with it.
Han Ziyu, Wang Yinyang. Who is lying to me?
Why did this old man die? Did he discover the secret of our classroom? And was he killed by the mastermind?
For a moment, my mind was overwhelmed and I didn’t know what to do.
When I got home, I sat on the bed alone, my mind was blank. What happened today was really too strange. Maybe it was really like Han Ziyu said, Wang Yangming was lying to me.
With this thought in mind, I quickly fell asleep .
The next day was Sunday. On this day, the gatekeeper of the underworld surprisingly did not issue any tasks. It was as if he disappeared out of thin air. And I also got a rare opportunity.
On this day, I decided to go to Wang Yinyang to ask him about it. Maybe he really could be lying to me.
With this idea in mind, I found Zhao Pengyu and went to Wang Yinyang's house together.
Wang Yinyang's home is in the suburbs, it is quaint and antique. When I came here, Wang Yinyang was practicing writing.
Seeing me coming, he put down his pen and said calmly, "You came to see me, I'm afraid there's something wrong."
When I saw him, I hesitated for a moment and didn't know what to say.
Wang Yinyang was quite carefree. He glanced at me and said calmly, "Are you doubting me?"
His words shocked me so much that I didn't know how to respond for a moment.
Who knew that he took a sip of tea, and then said slowly: "As the saying goes, ghosts tell lies. I'm afraid you believe what the ghost said?"
