Chapter 64 Our Haunted Dwelling
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56The Seven Ghostly Sisters seemed to love bickering and teasing each other. It was later revealed that Aunt Fen and Xiao Er (literally, Little Two), the second of the Sisters, were dead much earlier than the rest, who died around the same period; hence they looked almost the same age.
Aunt Fen then explained to her ghost siblings of our purpose. All six of them bellowed with such joy and excitement that I could not resist asking Aunt Fen of their sudden outburst. Apparently, having long being cooped up indoors, the six of them were anxious for an opportunity to alleviate their boredom and we had just presented them with the means of doing so. They had longed to roam the open, grassy steppes of Inner Mongolia and to seek fresh adventures upon the vast prairies of the North. We could hardly suppress a weak smile; we would be in for a hell of a trip, I guessed. I began to wonder who ordinary folk would think if anyone were to know that we would be traveling up north with h

We barely slept that night. For the first time, I truly experienced first-hand the agony that Mr. Zhang had endured on a nightly basis. The six Sisters practically threw up an all-nighter party last night at the center, the strong Yin energy in the night fuelling their exuberance and excitement of being able to travel! How could anyone have hoped to even close their eyes when six ghosts, all dead in myriads of ways imaginable, were zipping around wildly in the Center in a celebratory mood! We reached at the Wu Zhong County train station at 11 in the morning, carrying our backpacks on our shoulders. Our destination was the final stop of the train: the Beijing station, and our band, each with our bags and packs clinging to our arms, blended nicely into the crowd of youngsters traveling into the capital for work. We reached Beijing at 1 in the afternoon. It was hardly a long journey, since Wu Zhong was only about a hundred kilometers away from the capital. W

Lin Feng plotted the course to our destination with his GPS. "Oh my! How nice of him to choose such a far location to meet!" He grumbled. "As if we can do anything about it," I snapped, "Just get on with it!" We were halfway into our journey, when my phone rang, and the display on the screen of my phone showed a number that I could not recognize. I tapped on the "Answer" button and answered. A male voice responded at the other end, saying that he was sent by Tao Gang to meet us. Things might have turned urgent, I guessed. We were barely halfway when they were already expecting us. I told the person that we might need some time, since we were still on the way. Hearing this, Lin Feng's foot depressed the pedal and picked up more speed. The accelerating car hastened at Lin Feng's insistent, rendering blurry scenes outside the window that made me felt dizzy and I fell asleep. In my nap, I lost track of time until I was awakened by the ringing of my phone. It

Xiao San and Xiao Qi looked at each other, expressed a tacit smile, and held their guns. After that, I laughed and said to them, "I don't get it. Why do you put your hope on your guns? Are guns useful to you? It's just a concept introduced by foreigners! In their eyes, American weaponry is definitely better than millet plus rifles. But the truth is, what decides the winner is not the weapon but the capability. Like now! If I tell you that your guns will kill you, would you believe that?"

While listening to this woman giving a lively description, doubts came to my mind. Therefore I said, "It's hard for me to buy your story.

After my brother died, I moved to this semi-farmland region and contracted the farm. Over these years, I have recruited many people. In public, they are farmers who have property and farms.

With the help of Xiao Si and Xiao Wu, these mortal women were definitely no match for him! Then he found a chair there, made slide bars, and made the women carry him all the way. What a trick! I bet that was a wicked idea from Xiao Si and Xiao Wu. When they all came back to Wulan's place, they made peace with each other. Wulan finally knew the truth in the old days, apologized for her abruptness, and thanked me for showing them mercy! Only my team didn't take extreme measures to deal with her followers.

Then Deputy Director Zhao sent someone to collect things like fingerprints. However, unexpectedly, there was no trace of the suspect in the whole house! I took up the rice paper, folded it, put it in my pocket, and said to Tao Gang, "Do you know the reason why that man replied to you with weird and short sentences when you questioned him?" Tao Gang said, "I have no idea!" I said, "The reason was that he was the man who called the police. He made a copy of the phonecard of his neighbor from upstairs and called the police. In fear of being recognized by you that he was the caller, he had to control his speech!" I took out the cigarettes, handed one to Tao Gang, lit it, and then said, "This case has been a scheme
