Chapter 288 Don’t Believe What Your Mom Says! (1/2)



What?

The ghost her father saw was her mother?!

She didn't believe it at first, but seeing her father like this, he was so scared that he almost lost his soul. It didn't seem like he was lying.

But wasn't her mother already at peace? Why did she suddenly appear in the form of a "ghost"?

Besides, her mother had a good relationship with her father before her death. It’s not like she would deliberately scare her father after her death, right?

No, maybe she didn’t want to scare her father, but she couldn’t bear to leave him, so she came to find him!

If you think about it this way, it does make sense.

How could her father be so frightened by this reaction?

Even though her mother has turned into a ghost now, she was still his former wife.

But Zeng Yun thought about it and realized that he had never seen a ghost in person. Maybe ghosts after death are really scary, but they have nothing to do with the living?

No matter what, her father was so scared now and kept asking her to find someone to solve the problem, so she couldn't just ignore it.

So Zeng Yun asked around and finally found Lin Xi.

After recounting the whole story, Zeng Yun continued, "Master, I'm still not sure whether my dad saw a ghost or not, so I'd like you to come to my house and take a look."

"If there really is a ghost, and that ghost is my mother, then can you let me have a few words with her..."

At the end of his speech, Zeng Yun couldn't help but choke up with sobs.

For her, her mother's passing was so sudden that she didn't even have the chance to say her last words to her mother. This became a permanent regret in her heart.

If she could really see her mother again and talk to her, she would have no regrets.

Lin Xi couldn't promise her anything at the moment, so he could only say, "If the situation allows, I can."

But if the situation does not allow it, for example, the ghost Zeng Yun's father saw was not her mother's ghost, or he did not see a ghost at all, then the matter would have to be left unresolved.

After all, it was impossible for Lin Xi to summon Zeng Yun's mother's ghost just to talk to her.

Maybe he has already gone to the underworld and is waiting in line to be reincarnated.

Zeng Yun also expressed her complete understanding, but in her heart she was still looking forward to the opportunity to meet her mother He Qiuhong's ghost.

An hour later, the car arrived at Zeng Yun’s hometown village.

The conditions in their hometown are pretty good. There is a cement road extending from the main road to the doorstep of each household.

Zeng Yun's home is at the back of the village. Behind it, there are two families and a low hill.

Lin Xi's gaze was slightly dulled at the house closest to the mountain for a moment, then he asked Zeng Yun.

"Are there people living there?"

Zeng Yun looked in the direction of Lin Xi's finger and immediately recognized whose house it was.

She nodded hesitantly.

"Someone's."

He only said there was someone and nothing else.

Lin Xi was not surprised by these things, but he asked casually because he accidentally noticed that the room had a strong evil spirit.

Retracting his gaze, Lin Xi followed Zeng Yun into her home.

Although it was broad daylight, Zeng Yun's father didn't dare stay in the house alone, so he sat in the yard and asked a villager to chat with him and keep him company.

When the villager saw Zeng Yun coming back, he stood up suddenly.

"You're back, Xiaoyun. Since you're back, I'll go home first."

It's already noon, and he has to go home for lunch.

Zeng Yun hurriedly said, "Thank you, uncle. I'll thank you in person when I'm done."

"Hey, girl, what are you talking about? We're just from the same village, so why bother saying these things? I was just chatting with your dad, I didn't do anything else!"

The villager smiled, said a few words and left.

Zeng Yun quickly sent the villager out the door, while Lin Xi began to check on Zeng Yun's father and the situation in the entire yard.

There is indeed negative energy and evil energy in the yard.

It can be seen that there really were ghosts before, and it is even possible that ghosts with heavy resentment appeared.

But it had been a few days since the ghost last appeared, and the aura in the yard was fainter.

Then look at Zeng Yun’s father sitting on the chair.

After just one look, Lin Xi frowned.

Zeng Yun's father had messy and diagonal lines on his forehead, cloudy eyes, obvious crow's feet, thick eyes, thick lips, and a thick nose and head. These were all facial features of a person who indulged in alcohol and sex, had an unstable mind, and was prone to infidelity.

And looking at Zeng Yun's father's behavior, it's obvious that he has cheated on his wife.

Lin Xi himself had no disposition towards such people.

Behind him, Zeng Yun came back quickly.

Seeing Lin Xi and her father looking at each other, Zeng Yun quickly introduced her: "Master, this is my father Zeng Mingjie."

After that, she went on to introduce Lin Xi to her father.

"Dad, this is the master I specially invited back from my hometown. She's amazing. She saw right away that something was wrong with my parents!"

When Zeng Mingjie heard this, he immediately greeted Lin Xi enthusiastically.

"Master, thank you for your hard work. If it weren't for this incident, you wouldn't have had to make such a special trip."

As he spoke, Zeng Mingjie looked quite guilty.

Seeing his hypocritical expression, Lin Xi narrowed her eyes suddenly.

"Do you really feel guilty?"

Zeng Mingjie was stunned, and the expression on his face froze.

But he quickly reacted, sighed and nodded.

"Master, how can this guilt be false? You've been traveling for so long, why don't you take a rest first?"

He felt that the master in front of him was a little strange.

Especially the way she looked at him, which was clearly a smile, but it made him shudder.

Zeng Mingjie didn't dare to look her in the eye anymore.

Zeng Yun, who was standing by, was also surprised by Lin Xi's question.

On the way back by car, Lin Xi's attitude and tone of voice towards her were quite polite.

How could she forget to say such a thing to her father?

Zeng Yun suddenly felt something was wrong.

Lin Xi didn't waste time on this question, but turned to Zeng Yun and asked, "Have you been staying at home these days?"

Zeng Yun came back to his senses from his previous thoughts and nodded subconsciously.

"Yes, I've taken a few days off to stay home with my dad."

After her father fainted from fright a few days ago, Zeng Yun didn't dare to be careless anymore. She asked for half a month's leave from the company, intending to use this half month to deal with the matter of her father seeing a "ghost".

Moreover, her father kept saying that he was afraid to be alone now, no matter whether it was day or night, he didn't dare to be alone, so she had no choice but to stay at home for the time being.

She and her father never closed the bedroom door when they slept at night. If anything happened over there, she would be able to hear it as soon as he made a sound.

In fact, when she came back to stay there on the first night, Zeng Yun was a little scared. After all, what her father said was so true, and she was worried about what she would see at night.

But after returning home and staying there for a few days, she didn't see anything and slept very soundly at night.

Her father hasn't shown any signs of trouble in the past few days, but he still wants Zeng Yun to find a master to take a look.

After receiving Zeng Yun's affirmative response, Lin Xi's guesses gradually became clear.

She said to Zeng Yunyu.

"If you want to completely resolve this, it's very simple. Let your father sleep alone at home tonight. You and I will leave first, especially you. That ghost will come out only after we leave."

What's especially her?

Zeng Yun didn't quite understand why Lin Xi specifically pointed out that she had to leave.

Could it be that it also has the function of preventing ghosts from entering the house?

Out of doubt, Zeng Yun asked this question.

But Lin Xi looked at her meaningfully.

"You'll know when you see the ghost."

Zeng Mingjie, who was standing next to him, became anxious after hearing this and quickly spoke up.

He said, "Master, you guys don't stay here at night? What should I do if the ghost comes at night?"

"Also, can you hide in the dark and watch, and let Zeng Yun stay with me?"

He made the request hesitantly.

Lin Xi looked at him expressionlessly.

"Do you want to resolve this matter once and for all?"

Zeng Mingjie was speechless for a moment.

He thought about it!

But couldn't Lin Xi simply find the ghost and solve the problem directly? Why did he have to let him see the ghost again?

What if the "ghost" comes and attacks you? What should you do?

When Zeng Yun heard this, his wavering heart instantly became firm.

"Master, I'll listen to you!"

After saying that, she comforted her father Zeng Mingjie.

"Dad, be careful tonight. Just bear with it for one more night, and this matter will be completely resolved. Once it's resolved, you won't have to worry anymore."

And she believed that since Lin Xi said so, he must have a reasonable plan and would not let her father get into trouble.

Zeng Mingjie had no choice. His daughter had already made up her mind, so he had no choice but to agree.

It was only noon and the sun was still very strong. The ghosts and monsters would not come out until night. Zeng Yun knew that he could not let Lin Xi stand here, so he asked her to sit down and rest first, while Zeng Yun went to the kitchen to cook.

As for her father, he hurried to the kitchen to help her light the fire.

He didn't dare to be alone with Lin Xi.

Zeng Yun was a little surprised to see her father come in to help.

She thought her father was not actually very hardworking, at least not as hardworking as her mother.

It’s just that her father had more education than her mother. In their generation, they only finished high school, but they were unlucky and didn’t get into college.

Later, he taught in a primary school in the village of Dan, and was considered a cultured person.

Unfortunately, the village primary school collapsed and was merged into the town's. Her father was not a formal teacher and he himself lost his job, so he had to return home and farm with her mother.
