As the sky gradually darkened, I came to the West Church with the small porcelain bottle containing Red Sister's milk. Zhou Wen had been waiting for me there for a long time and greeted me from a distance.
I carried a bag, which contained the peach wood brass knuckles that my master gave me, the peach wood sword hanging on the wall of the store, and a pile of talisman papers. Jing Tian told me that these were all drawn by my master and thrown into the trash can, and they might be useful.
I followed Zhou Wenye upstairs. No one had been in the building for a long time, and the main door was sealed shut. We finally found a broken window and went inside. He kept trying to persuade me: "Either study hard or go see a doctor. Students are under a lot of pressure these days, and if you're not careful, you'll develop mental problems, just like me and you."
I was already feeling a little cold, but he was still chattering on and on, as if he was trying to use words to make up for the coldness between him and me these days.
But just after reaching the fifth floor, Zhou Wen shut up. He clearly saw a girl in a white shirt and skirt standing in front of the railing.
I saw it too.
Zhou Wen took a deep breath and strode forward: "This is my hallucination. You may not see it, but I have looked up a lot of information recently. This is a phenomenon of schizophrenia..."
I nodded and interrupted him: "I saw it."
Zhou Wen stopped and looked at me in disbelief. "Are you kidding me? How could you possibly see my hallucinations?"
The woman turned her head slowly, twisting her neck at a strange angle that made a crisp sound. I was sure it was more than 180 degrees.
Zhou Wen looked at her.
"Don't look!" I shouted to stop them, but it was too late. My master said that many ghosts do not have the ability to attack people directly, and relying on them is just an illusion. It is obvious that this female ghost is one of them.
I watched a smile gradually appear on Zhou Wen's face, and then he just looked at me, then opened his hands and made a flying gesture. I knew it would be too late if I didn't take action, so I reached out and took out a handful of talisman paper and threw it out. A large handful of talisman paper flew in the wind, and a few of them stuck to Zhou Wen, instantly emitting a red light, and then dimmed. The expression on Zhou Wen's face became extremely ferocious. He reached out to scratch the part of himself that was stuck by the talisman paper, and his whole body was twisted.
I rushed forward and hugged him, pushing him to the ground. Because Zhou Wen was smaller than me, and because the ghost inside him was struggling to remove the talisman paper, I used one free hand to pull out the porcelain bottle containing Sister Hong's talisman and opened the lid. Sister Hong stood beside me with her pretty face, watching me lying on a man. She covered her mouth with her hands and let out a surprised "ah", then smiled: "No wonder you didn't fall for it, it turns out that little brother is not good at this."
"Stop making sarcastic remarks! He's possessed by that ghost!" I tried my best to hold down Zhou Wen who was struggling.
Sister Hong wasn't in a hurry at all. She just said slowly, "I've seen practitioners before, but they don't use talismans like you do. How can you use talismans directly when a ghost is possessed by a human? Wouldn't that be like blocking the ghost's escape route?"
I suddenly realized what was going on and reached out to help Zhou Wen remove a few of the talismans on his body. As soon as he did so, his strength became very strong and with just a push, I was pushed aside. Zhou Wen stood up and looked at me fiercely.
"You all deserve to die!" He opened his mouth but a girl's voice came out.
I hurriedly took out my brass knuckles and peach wood sword, but I didn't know what to do. To be honest, if she hadn't had the tattoo last week, I could have dealt with her. After all, those ghosts in the store had served as my sparring partners a while ago.
But I have never encountered such a situation.
Sister Hong sighed and said slowly, "Little sister, why are you so depressed?"
