"No, no, no." Xie Quan shook his head quickly. "This isn't science at all. They say it's feudal superstition! Young people in the new era shouldn't believe this. We should eliminate feudal superstition."
Thinking about the series of events that happened today, Xie Quan said, "Before today, I always thought it was feudal superstition, ahahaha..."
【I think I've heard of this before.】
[I haven't heard this statement for a long time. After all, our science is now fully developed.]
[So most ghosts haunt the night... Ahhh, I don't dare turn off the lights! Will turning on the lights bring in more yang energy?]
【No?】
Is there any good way to boost one's yang energy?
My grandmother knew a little about this. She told me that to maintain a healthy body, one must have sufficient Qi, blood, and Yang.
[Okay, everyone. Starting tomorrow, we won’t stay up late.]
I don't believe it.
After listening to Xie Quan's explanation, Qiao Yan found it a little magical, what with the yang and yin energy... She wanted to ask more, but the glass door of the bakery suddenly opened a little by itself, and the bell on it jingled.
The two of them became alert instantly.
Now they have to pay close attention to any slight movement.
There was indeed no one entering the store, but the opening and closing of the door could not deceive anyone. Qiao Yan got down from the chair and stood back to back with Xie Quan to observe the surroundings.
The invisible enemy is often the most terrifying.
The lights were not turned off, but the fear brought by this strange situation happening in a bright environment was no less than that in the dark.
"careful!"
The box next to the cash register was suddenly overturned, and the plastic forks inside, used to distribute cakes to customers, flew out. Xie Quan pulled Qiao Yan down and ducked to avoid them. The forks flew out at a rapid speed, hitting the bakery window and then clattering to the ground.
The fork was just a small beginning. All the big and small things in the bakery began to vibrate slightly for unknown reasons, and then flew towards them.
Xie Quan and Qiao Yan were forced to separate and dodge under this wave of attacks, and a very clear scene was formed on the field. All those things passed by Qiao Yan and only hit Xie Quan.
Seeing this, Qiao Yan was stunned. What was going on? Why didn't he attack her?
Xie Quan used the cash register and cabinets to block many of these things. Although he was not injured, he was always in a passive position, which made him very upset.
Looking at the chandelier above her head, Qiao Yan suddenly understood something and quietly sneaked into the kitchen along the wall.
Xie Quan went into the back kitchen and turned on the lights. Now that there were lights in the bakery, the ghost didn't show up, and they were very passive, so Qiao Yan thought, maybe if they turned off the lights, it would appear.
The switch was behind the iron door to the back kitchen. Qiao Yan found it easily and then raised her hand to flick down a few small levers. Suddenly, the light in the bakery went out.
Inside the store, after it fell into darkness, Xie Quan immediately saw the "person" hanging on the ceiling.
The black skirt swayed in the air, and a pair of bare bluish-white feet also swayed gently. The red rope in the middle of the skirt moved to the neck, and the long black hair fell down, covering the entire face tightly.
Finally able to see, Qiao Yan covered her mouth and looked at the "person" hanging from the ceiling. They now knew her identity.
"Hiss!" They were stunned by the appearance of the female ghost, but the ghost did not stop. A piece of bread was thrown over, and the sharp corner of the packaging bag scratched Xie Quan's cheek, leaving him with a thin and shallow wound, and a few drops of blood oozed out.
Qiao Yan glanced at the clock on the wall. It was almost five o'clock. Thinking of Xie Quan's remarks about yang and yin, she knew that day would soon come. When the day came, the yang energy would be sufficient, and she would no longer be able to be so aggressive!
Thinking of this, she ran forward and pulled Xie Quan: "Hurry, let's get out!"
"Okay!" Xie Quan nodded, and dodged the falling chair by leaning sideways. The boss would probably burst into tears if he saw this...
"Keep some distance from me." He said. It was obvious that this female ghost only wanted his life and had no intention of taking Qiao Yan's life, so if Qiao Yan stayed away from him, she would not be affected.
Qiao Yan didn't say anything about sharing the responsibility, and quickly distanced herself from Xie Quan.
After they left the bakery, the female ghost naturally had no way to continue hanging on the ceiling. The red rope broke by itself, and she fell to the ground and then disappeared, leaving only a pool of dark red blood on the ground.
Qiao Yan was in front and Xie Quan was behind. They ran past Master Yu's house and this was the way back to the community.
Seeing that there was no female ghost chasing after her, Qiao Yan breathed a sigh of relief, slowly stopped, and looked back to see if Xie Quan was running towards her.
"She didn't chase him." Xie Quan panted, his eyes full of disbelief. How could she not chase him?
"Maybe it's dawn, and it's not easy for her to show up." Qiao Yan looked at the sky which was gradually getting brighter. The process of change from endless darkness to a little bit of blue-gray was really magical.
The alternation of day and night is the law of nature.
The laws of human life, from birth to death and all the experiences in between, are called destiny.
Often, inspiration only lasts a split second. Qiao Yan realized she had grasped something crucial, and immediately turned around excitedly, "I know!"
But there was no one around.
"Xie Quan?" Qiao Yan was stunned. She turned around and looked around, but couldn't find Xie Quan. "Xie Quan?"
No one responded to her.
A breeze blew from the alley entrance, and when she turned around, a missing person notice was blown in, almost sticking to her face.
