So I asked Ms. Du to find me a pair of iron scissors. I tied a red rope on the handle of the scissors, wrapped it around ten times, and then tied it into a knot. Then I used nails on the back of Ms. Du’s daughter’s room door near the top.

I hammered a nail into the corner, hammered the nail into an upward corner, and then hung the scissors on it with the tip facing downwards. The place where the nail was hung was the handle where I tied the red rope. The scissors were opened as much as possible.

Let one of the points point straight to the ground.

This is a move I learned from one of my master's books when I was studying art in the early years. It is specially used in a small and closed range and corresponds to all evil methods. The red rope on the handle of the scissors is not something I often use.

The rope used for binding spirits or forming formations can have the same effect if it is ordinary. To be precise, it only needs the color red. The scissors themselves are a very common and necessary tool for every household.

But it also has a certain degree of aggression and is a dangerous item that is generally not allowed to be touched by children. Hanging the scissors in this way can basically ensure that the ghosts in the room do not dare to enter or exit the room. It is especially suitable for families with children who are

I am a family who sleeps alone in a room, but I hung the scissors higher on purpose just to prevent Sisi from touching them. The corner on the nail is to prevent the scissors from shaking even under the influence of external force.

Falling due to relationships is also for the safety of the children. After all, children don’t understand anything.

After doing all this, I still opened the door of Ms. Du's daughter's room, and then exited to the living room. During this period, I briefly told Hu Zongren the cause and effect of the matter, so as to save him from questioning Ms. Du. After all, Ms. Du told me

Many of her words contained her own guesses, which may be information of no reference value to me. Then I found a few toys among the pile of toys in the toy box that had obvious supernatural reactions. One was an electric

The little trains are an electric puppy that can bark to annoy you with batteries, and there is also a small colorful thread-shaped ball.

Hu Zongren ran to the door of the security door. According to the position where Ms. Du opened the door to catch the ghost that night, he affixed a charm to the same position on the inside of the door, plus the rope head nails I put on the ground. In this way, unless the ghost enters

The exits are the windows of the kitchen and balcony, otherwise it must be in our confined space.

Considering that Ms. Du said she saw a child under the fire hydrant at the end of the corridor before, although she couldn't be sure whether it was a hallucination or reality, it was only a few steps away, so Hu Zongren and I still planned to check it out.

So I temporarily took off one end of the rope nail, then opened the door and walked towards the fire hydrant at the end with Hu Zongren. Except for explaining the case to Hu Zongren, the two of us never said a word, and we were unhappy with each other. Although my

My intention is still to help Hu Zongren deal with this matter, but I can forcefully say that I am also involved in it and there is nothing I can do about it. If Hu Zongren does not apologize to me, I have made up my mind not to take the initiative to show kindness to him.

of.

On both sides of the fire hydrant are two other houses facing each other. Ms. Du told us that one of them was a house that had been empty for a long time and no one lived in it. She had just moved here not long ago, and she had never met the neighbors of this house.

I looked at the dust on the door handle. No one had touched the house for at least a year. I squatted down and searched with a compass near the fire hydrant. The location of this fire hydrant was relatively unscientific.

If either of the two houses opened the door, they could cover half of the opening of the fire hydrant. Near the corner of the house that had been unoccupied for a long time, where Ms. Du saw the child earlier, I found

There was an obvious supernatural reaction.

This place is a vertical pipe, painted vermilion, I don’t know if it is a water pipe or something else. This is also an old community, and there is no facility like property management. It is estimated that even the water and electricity bills are paid by the residents themselves or by others.

The street staff collect it on their behalf. And every few inches on the pipe, there will be a relatively strong reaction. This proves that after Ms. Du stomped her feet to turn on the porch light, she saw the child in the corner with his back to her.

It was really a ghost. So I calculated the approximate height of the child and the height after squatting, and came to the conclusion that the relatively strong reaction on the tube happened to be based on the height of the child.

Wherever the hand can reach it.

In other words, it is as if a child is squatting or standing and grabbing the pipe with both hands.

For a moment, I couldn't understand the reason why this kid made such a gesture, but Hu Zongren began to throw some rice grains towards the pipe. This is a commonly used technique among all walks of life. Throwing rice is the same as burning incense.

The meaning of the ghost offering food is to show his own position, which means that we have no ill intentions and just want to help. If you eat my food, you must listen to my words. Then Hu Zongren took out a hand bell from his pocket.

, a Bagua mirror. He turned to Ms. Du and said, open the door wide, then stand in the kitchen first, block the kitchen door and stop moving, don't block our way back. Ms. Du responded

Went there. Then I knew that Hu Zongren wanted to dare the ghost currently in the corridor to go into the house from the position of the fire hydrant, let it enter the closed space, and then think of a solution.

So I grabbed Hu Zongren and said to him, why are you in a hurry? There is a stair passage here! If this kid jumps up and down, how long will it take you to catch up? Hu Zongren said with a smile,

Oh, it turns out you are not mute. I thought you were not going to talk to me anymore. I rolled my eyes at him and ignored him. I stood up and walked to the stairs, squatted down and started to check carefully. But the result was that

I was a little surprised. There was a supernatural reaction at the top of the stairs, but it just stopped there. There were no traces of going upstairs or downstairs. Since there was one at the top of the stairs, it means that the kid's choice of action was still the same as us living people.

Instead of just floating wherever you want. This means that the little devil is on this floor at the moment. Judging from the scope and frequency of supernatural reactions and the degree of age, it is right where Hu Zongren is standing on the fire department.

The location of the bolt is all the way to Ms. Du's living room.

It couldn't be wrong, so I tied a rope-head nail on the stairway to ensure that Hu Zongren would not slip away from the corridor while driving him away. I also stood on the other side of the rope-head nail on the stairway.

Holding the red string in my hand and holding the compass, I wouldn't be too late to prepare if something went wrong. I still didn't speak to Hu Zongren, but just nodded to him, indicating that he could start, so Hu Zongren raised his hands to his shoulders.

He was in a position where he was mumbling words, shaking the bell every few seconds with one hand, and using the reflection of the Bagua mirror with the other hand to shine up and down the stretch of road starting from the fire hydrant.

The Bagua Mirror is a magical instrument often used by Taoists. It is not only used to catch and expel ghosts, but is sometimes used for daily consecration spells. In the middle is a boiled mirror that can gather light at a certain distance. This

According to them, this kind of light combines the power of yin and yang of the Eight Diagrams, which can burn ghosts and make them manifest. Hu Zongren is a Taoist who has a regular apprenticeship, so compared to many pretentious guys, he can be regarded as a real person. In the corridor

The only light source is the voice-activated gallery light that lights up when you stamp your feet. The light is reflected by the mirror of the Bagua mirror, thus focusing the light on one point. The principle is probably similar to the homemade "solar stove" we made when we were children. And in Hu

When Zongren moved the light beam, I could see something similar to the dust raised by a blackboard eraser. To be precise, it was a kind of smoke. This shows that Hu Zongren's light beam was harmful to the kid here.

Those smokes are ironclad evidence.

I don’t think I need to remind Hu Zongren to be measured in his actions, because the intensity of the burn depends on how loudly Hu Zongren rings the bell and the content of the incantation in his mouth. He slowly moved towards Ms. Du’s room step by step.

When Hu Zongren walked past me, I also stepped over the rope-tack and followed him, trying to prevent that kid from sneaking up behind us at any time.

Fortunately, the little guy seemed to be quite cooperative. We didn't know whether he was scared or unable to struggle. In short, it didn't take long for us to bring him back to Ms. Du's house and trapped him in the small living room.

In the range.

Hu Zongren began to arrange questions. He poured out almost all the rice in the rice bucket at Ms. Du's house and arranged the rice into a curse word. Although I don't know if he learned this curse word from Fu Yunni privately.

Because as far as I know, this thing doesn't seem to have much to do with his sect. He lit candles at the four corners and in the middle of the mantra, and then placed the Bagua mirror face up on the top of the mantra, and also pressed it.

On the rice, after Hu Zongren recited a spell, he pointed at the shapeless reflection of the Bagua Mirror and said to Ms. Du and me, look, you can see the child in the mirror now.

This is a Taoist method. If it were me, the Bagua Mirror would be used by me to pretend to be a ghost. Ms. Du looked in the direction of Hu Zongren’s finger, and sure enough, in the reflection of the concave mirror, she saw an inverted little

Although the figure of the child is not very clear, it can indeed be distinguished. This child is exactly as Ms. Du described him. He is thin, with a dirty face and a mushroom head like a watermelon taro. It is difficult to see the face.

His expression was a bit panicked, but he stayed there obediently.
