Chapter 99 The Knocking Sound



Zhang Guangyin frowned, as if he was thinking. After a while, he shook his head and said, "I can't remember. I don't think I ever saw her face. I only remember that her hair was very long and messy, covering her face."

I was startled. It seemed that the woman in red that Zhang Guangyin saw was the same one I had seen before.

Why would Ma Jiabao give her something to eat?

Could it be?

I dared not think any further. It seems I need to find an opportunity to go and see Ma Jiabao and see what he's up to.

If Ma Jiabao really is raising ghosts, or if he's possessed by something evil, I'll see if I can help him.

The Ma family is already pitiful enough. Their daughter passed away not long ago. If something were to happen to Ma Jiabao, how could they bear such a blow?

But I don't have time right now, let's talk about it when I get back.

I stopped thinking about Ma Jiabao and focused on driving towards the county town.

An hour later.

I arrived at the post office in the county town and waited for the workers to unload the packages from the truck. Then, following Zhang Guangyin's directions, I drove into a residential area.

I've never been inside this neighborhood, but I've heard Tong Liu mention that this neighborhood, called Tianxiangyuan, has an average price of 6,000 yuan per square meter or more, which is almost twice as expensive as the neighborhood in Tong Liu's town.

Even a small apartment of a few dozen square meters would cost hundreds of thousands of yuan. Zhang Guangyin is really rich. I don't know if it's his own money or his wife's.

After getting out of the car, Zhang Guangyin's drunkenness had dissipated, but his face turned pale and he appeared highly nervous.

I patted Zhang Guangyin on the shoulder and comforted him, "Relax, I'm here, everything will be alright."

To be honest, since this was my first time performing an exorcism for someone, I was inevitably a little nervous, but I couldn't show it.

Unlike Hu Tudao back then, who was like a newborn calf unafraid of tigers, boasting without any real ability, and ended up being scared out of his wits.

"Changming, you must protect my safety." Zhang Guangyin gritted his teeth and led the way.

"Mmm." I nodded heavily, feeling a bit like how Hu Tudao comforted me back then.

Zhang Guangyin lives on the 7th floor, in room 702.

Zhang Guangyin took out his key, opened the door, hesitated for a moment, then pushed the door open and went in. I changed my shoes and followed him in.

His house was a three-bedroom, one-living-room suite, which was originally beautifully decorated. However, for some reason, all the glass doors and mirrors inside had been removed and were piled up haphazardly, making the whole house look very messy.

"Brother Yin, what's going on?" I asked, puzzled.

“Sigh, every night, I can see that dirty thing in the mirror. When I go to the bathroom, she suddenly appears in the mirror. When I look in the mirror, she smiles at me. She appears in any mirror. I’m scared, so I took all the mirrors in the house down, but it didn’t help. I still feel like something is pressing down on me when I sleep, and I even dream about doing *that* with her.” Zhang Guangyin sighed, then said with a look of lingering fear.

I looked around Zhang Guangyin's house but didn't find anything unusual, so I casually asked, "Do you live alone?"

“My wife said she disliked my talking in my sleep at night, so she took the kids and went back to her parents’ house.” Zhang Guangyin seemed to remember something, and his face became even paler. “Every night around ten o’clock, I would hear someone knocking on the door. I couldn’t see anyone outside through the peephole, but the door was still making noise. Even if I didn’t stay at home and went to a hotel, that unclean thing would follow me.”

"Alright then, I've already checked this place, and there's nothing unusual. Let's check again tonight." I pushed Zhang Guangyin, who was pressed against me, away and plopped down on the soft sofa.

Zhang Guangyin followed, but when he passed by the glass, he closed his eyes and dared not look.

It seems that the female ghost that has been haunting Zhang Guangyin is just an ordinary spirit. She cannot reveal her true form and can only appear in front of Zhang Guangyin through a mirror or in his dreams. What's strange is that this female ghost harms people by doing *that* kind of thing.

Haha, Zhang Guangyin is really a womanizer, he doesn't even spare female ghosts.

"Changming, I don't have much food at home. You haven't had dinner yet, have you? I'll order you some takeout." Zhang Guangyin sat down next to me and handed me a cigarette.

"I haven't eaten. Just order me some fast food." I took the cigarette and nodded. I'd been busy drawing talismans all afternoon and had genuinely forgotten to eat.

After Zhang Guangyin reminded me, I suddenly felt hungry. Since I had helped him with something, I didn't stand on ceremony.

Zhang Guangyin took out his phone, made a call to order takeout, and then poured me a glass of water.

Half an hour later, the takeout arrived.

Zhang Guangyin was really generous; he ordered me a goose leg rice dish.

To be honest, this was my first time eating roast goose. It was sweet, delicious, and tasted amazing.

I don't know if it was because I was too hungry or because it tasted so good, but I ate the whole box of rice.

"Brother Yin, did that female ghost say anything to you?" After finishing my meal, I had nothing to do, so I wanted to ask her about the situation.

“No, every time I see her, she gives me a strange smile,” Zhang Guangyin said slowly, wiping the cold sweat from his forehead.

"So she came to you just to do 'that' with you?" I pressed on.

Zhang Guangyin nodded somewhat awkwardly and said, "Actually, I don't know if it's because of what I did with him, but I felt like something was pressing down on me when I slept at night, and I couldn't feel any pleasure. When I woke up the next day, I felt extremely weak."

My face darkened. He's about to die, and he's still thinking about pleasure. I should have just ignored him. Even if I had helped him this time, this fatso would have died on a woman's belly sooner or later.

"Do you know that woman? Do you know anything about her family?"

“I don’t know, this is his first time doing business with me.” Zhang Guangyin shook his head, then suddenly asked, “Changming, you know so much, does that help you with your ghost-catching?”

"It won't help much. I just want to find out more and see if I can talk to him and get her sent away."

"Changming, why don't you just kill her? What if she comes back after we send her away? If she finds out I hired someone to deal with her, she'll kill me." Zhang Guangyin grabbed my hand in terror.

“Brother Yin, when will this cycle of revenge end? If she wants to leave, just send her away. Why create so much karma?” I shook off Zhang Guangyin’s hand, sighed, and said.

Zhang Guangyin's expression changed slightly, and he said, "Isn't it said that humans and ghosts are irreconcilable enemies?"

"I don't know about others, but when it comes to me, unless they are utterly wicked, I will prioritize sending them away."

"Okay, as long as she stops bothering me, you can do whatever you want."

Zhang Guangyin and I chatted like that, exchanging a few words here and there, and before we knew it, it was already past ten o'clock at night.

Just then.

"Knock knock knock knock!"

There was a knock on the door.
