The blank face didn't move closer. He just stood in the distance, watching us silently. His black hair was flying in the wind, and his school uniform seemed pale in the dark.
Hu Guyue held my hand tighter and opened his mouth, but in the end, he didn't say anything.
Director Ding came out from the inside and looked at us who were standing motionlessly at the door, as well as followed our gazes.
I don't know if he saw the face, but he knew for sure what we saw.
So he patted me on the shoulder and said softly, "Every day in this world, a lot of people die. Those who die from old age, those who die from illness, those who die accidentally, those who die accidentally, those who get killed, those who commit suicide. Maybe this is just a number for us, but if you know people around you, or if you've seen people die, you will feel regret and feel that you should do something, that they are no longer numbers or just names. "
I didn't say anything, just listened.
The first time I met the Director Ding, I knew that he was not a simple person. He did not care about fixed things, nor did he look down on me or look down on me just because I was able to handle some supernatural things. He always treated us as ordinary people.
"When I get home for dinner, I'll go to the police station and look for you." I pulled at Hu Guyue who had a blank face, and walked away without even turning my head back.
When we passed by the blank face, we suddenly heard the rustling sound. The long hair floating in the air automatically avoided us, making way for us. I knew that she had heard my words and was thanking me.
Sitting in the back seat of the van, Hu Guyue held my hand tightly, staring at the outside of the window.
That bus stop had already been cordoned off, the corpse had been dragged away, and that little kid had also disappeared. However, Hu Guyue and I still had our hearts clenched tightly.
I pulled him into my embrace and patted his shoulder lightly. He called out softly, "Last sister Chen, I'm in so much pain."
"Just get used to it." I suddenly understood why Liu Kunsheng brought Hu Guyue back after admitting that he killed my mother the moment he opened his mouth.
He was naturally different from others. This special ability would cause his mind to become twisted or numb to life and death if no one was able to relax it.
Covering his eyes with his hand, he knew that the pain he was talking about was not a physical pain, but a heartache, the kind of pain that finally decided to do something, but that had already begun before it had even begun to happen that you could foresee but did not want to see.
When he got home, his father was sitting in front of the door with a plate of vegetables and was sipping his wine and eating a duck foot. At his feet was a bamboo stick that he had given away.
I brought Hu Guyue to the entrance. He coldly snorted, put down the wine cup in his hand, and picked up the bamboo slip. It's fine if you don't come back for dinner, but you just hung up. "
After saying that, he grabbed the bamboo stick and shook it, causing the dust on the ground to fly about. He raised his eyebrows and looked at me seriously. "Do you know where your mother has gone to?"
"Where did he go?" I looked at his crimson face and asked carefully.
"The town is dead. Your mother went to see it. She was afraid that the one who died was you! " The old man let out a long sigh, then shook off the bamboo stick in his hand and carried the plate into the house. As he walked, he said in a low voice, "It doesn't matter if I'm old now, but you've grown up too. It's fine if I don't cause you trouble. "
Those words were filled with sorrow, causing my eyes to ache. I shouted towards his back, "Father!"
He turned around and waved the wine cup in his hand towards me as he chuckled, "I know you have your own will, so I'm relieved."
"Then don't cause trouble." I glared at my father, at the long shadow behind him, and suddenly felt a little flustered.
He waved at me and went into the house, chuckling.
"Dad is fine." Hu Guyue looked at his father carefully a few times, and comforted me with absolute certainty.
I touched his head and went to the stove to remove the lid.
When I was young, I often missed out on meals with classmates. When I found her, she scolded me for starving to death, but when I removed the lid of the pot, there must be some hot dishes left for me, and they were all the best ones.
It was the same this time. The duck wings had been preserved, and even the piece of meat was kept at the best place. The blood dung had been soaked in the soup, being both soft and juicy.
I carried the dishes out and filled up Hu Guyue's bowl with food. Seeing my father sitting at the side drinking wine, I fawningly picked up a duck leg and gave it to him, "Have you eaten well?"
"Can you do it? "Both of you aren't here. You just need to pick up a few more chopsticks before your mom scolds me. She says it's for Sanhe, so when I came back, I just took a sip or two." His father unrestrainedly grabbed the duck leg and took a bite. He glanced at Hu Guyue who was at the side and said, "Sanhe, you can't be as crazy as your sister. She's been spoiled by us.
Hu Guyue nodded his head inexplicably, then watched in shock as his father put the bitten duck leg into his bowl. He went to wash his hands while humming a dissonant song, saying that he was a little drunk when we were all drinking.
"Give it to Lil 'White." I looked at Hu Guyue who was staring blankly at the half-eaten duck leg, and gave him a very pertinent suggestion.
When Little White heard him, it immediately came out. Without even needing Hu Guyue to give it to it, it opened its mouth, bit into the duck leg and swallowed it.
I gave a piece of Blood Dung to Hu Guyue, and while I ate, I thought about recent things. Since I was clueless about it, I asked the Fourth Young Master to just bring the Grey Immortal back, since Liu Kunsheng said that he would accompany me, he must have definitely said hello. Isn't there any good dishes, I can also curry favor with him.
Just as I released Fourth Young Master, before I finished eating a piece of Blood Dung, he had returned with a giggle. Grey Immortal was still drooling.
I guess this guy must have been waiting around my house all this time. Otherwise, if I didn't get such a piece, he might not have eaten it. With his nose that's even sharper than a dog's, I don't know how he scolded me.
Grey Immortal was not courteous at all. His two front paws held onto his chopsticks, he did not need to greet them at all.
Little White did not show any sign of weakness. With a flick of its tongue, it started to eat its fill, looking for a place to eat. It firmly refused to leave any food for the Grey Immortal.
In the end, Hu Guyue and I ended up with some soup for our meal. Xiao Bai saw that we poured soup and directly jumped into the bowl, relying on our small size, he even licked the bowl with his Snake Trust.
After we finished eating, I poured water for Hu Guyue and Grey Immortal and told them about the matter of the white face and asked if he had any ideas.
After all, he was a mouse spirit and didn't have any other abilities. He had so many children and grandchildren and was hiding everywhere. It would be the best if he could gather information.
Grey Immortal was full, he drank two mouthfuls of water and held his stomach as he said to me, "I already told the little ones to go and find out, this is really strange, and it has something to do with us."
What does that have to do with us? Shouldn't we dig up the body in the glass vat and let the white face bring down the whole town?
Seeing me in a daze, Grey Immortal immediately started to act cool again. Being knocked on the head with chopsticks by me, he pointed at Hu Guyue, telling him that we had great abilities too.
When Liu Kunsheng taught him to look at the black energy underground, she had said that something was moving underground. At that time, we all thought that it was the mountain god, but the Grey Immortal said that what was flowing was the River of Forgetfulness.
I almost sprayed water at that time, didn't you say that it was hard to forget water?
The last time I washed that sandalwood, Liu Kunsheng and Little White had to chant some kind of incantation and borrow Li Xiaoyan's corpse to draw their attention to it. Now Grey Immortal is telling me that there was a river that flowed in the town, do I take the river as groundwater?
"The Forgotten River water is invisible, penetrating to the bottom. When it flows, it becomes invisible. If not for a single drop of Forgotten River water, your entire town would have been flooded." Grey Immortal couldn't stand my ignorance towards basic knowledge the most, so he helplessly explained.
The so-called flow was actually just a little vapor that seeped in. However, the Forgotten River Water was after all, different from the others, flowing straight to the Yellow Spring Yin Division, dissolving grievances and communicating with spirits.
Being able to come here is because Li Xiaoyan's bones are stained with the River Forgetfulness Water, and because of that, we've also cast our spell before, which is why we've attracted so much River Forgetfulness Water. After all, water is water, fire is dry, this is nature.
The moment the water flowed, the things with the heavy air of grievance underneath the town were first detected. The face of the white board in the glass vat had always been buried by the pipes, so it was the first to come out when the water came in contact with the water vapor.
Or else, when her corpse was sealed in a glass container, let alone herself, even if someone broke the jar and released her, the moment they saw the light, they would be scared out of their wits and would even turn her into a corpse.
When Grey Immortal finished speaking, he suddenly looked at me and said, "This is considered a good thing. There is something bad that I have to tell you and it has to do with you.
