C7 Burning rope

I was so scared that I curled up on the bed and didn't dare to move. The paper talisman in my hand was almost drenched in sweat. What should I do now? The rooster fled at the critical moment. The rope was so close to my neck that I could almost feel the hemp rope touching my skin.

With a static brake? Or fight back? These thoughts were racing through my mind, but what would I do if I resisted?

The ghost girl behind me came closer, her foot of tongue almost hanging over my shoulder, and before I could decide whether to resist or not, the noose tightened around my neck.

I struggled with all my might, trying to struggle free. My body twisted violently, but the rope around my neck didn't show any signs of loosening. Instead, it tightened and tightened, causing my tongue to uncontrollably stretch outwards little by little.

I struggled to breathe, my hands struggling, and then I remembered the paper charm.

Just as he was about to activate it, he suddenly lost control of his body and was suspended in midair. The paper talisman also fell to the ground.

"Isn't it fun? Look at me, I'm playing with you." The woman's voice rang out again, and this time I did not find it very pleasant, because I had been unable to breathe for a long time, and felt not the slightest bit of happiness but immense pain. My heart was filled with resentment, and I did not expect that such a small piece of hemp rope could bring such pain to a person.

I didn't have any chance to resist anymore. I couldn't even control my swaying body, so I closed my eyes and waited for death.

But things were always so dramatic, and just as I was about to despair, the rooster outside the door, for some reason, came back and jumped on the table with his head held high and his chest held high.

It was, I promise, the most beautiful crowing I've ever heard in my life.

After the crowing, I suddenly felt the noose around my neck loosen up, and my entire body fell down from midair, landing heavily on the ground. I felt that my internal organs were about to change places, but I could be described as having hot tears in my eyes.

I quickly picked up the paper talisman from the ground and looked behind me with the mirror in my hand. That Hanged Ghost had his tongue hanging down as he swung it in the air.

The rooster was a pure Yang item, and had the ability to repel evil spirits and counter evil spirits. With this cry, it could temporarily suppress ghosts and wild ghosts, and then it was time to take the rope.

I slowly stood on the table and turned my head away from her because I was afraid to see her in such a state. I stretched out my hand and groped in the air, just in time to touch the swaying hemp rope and untie it with my eyes closed. Then I didn't hear a sound like someone falling from the air.

Waiting until the hemp rope was rolled into a ball, he stuck the paper charm on it. His intention was to temporarily suppress the evil being inside so that she wouldn't be able to come out and do anything.

I carefully placed the hemp rope on the ground. I hadn't finished doing all of this. Mr Li said that he would come back tomorrow and would make a detailed arrangement then.

Although it was still dark, I was not sleepy at all. I believed that no matter who it was, they would never be able to sleep after such a thing.

I carried the big rooster outside the door. A refreshing breeze blew past, and immediately made me feel much more clear-headed. The big rooster in my embrace stretched out his head as if he was in a victorious posture.

But then again, this rooster was really weird, because I almost lost my life, and because of him, I had to survive. I really didn't know what to say.

He stood outside the door for a while with the rooster in his arms. When he saw the white color of fish belly up in the sky and the rooster in his arms crowing along with him, he realized that it was already early in the morning.

I sat in my room with my eyes closed for a rest. Just as the sky began to brighten, I saw my grandparents and A-Cong arriving together. I felt a surge of warmth when I saw how concerned they were with me.

Afraid of any more trouble, the four of us stayed in the house until ten o'clock. Outside, the sun shone brightly, and we saw a kind old man walk into the house.

This old man was none other than the neighboring Feng Shui Mr.. My grandparents all respected him as Mister Li, and I'm afraid it's not appropriate for juniors to call him that, so A-Cong and I called him Master Li.

In addition to what happened to my grandfather, this Grandpa Li has already resolved two evils in our family, and I really don't know how to thank him. In fact, I really want to ask him how he resolved the strange situation in the village and why he took my grandfather away for a month.

In front of so many people, I didn't ask him in the end. I could only ask him when there was a chance, because there were still matters that I had to take care of.

"The paper talisman on the rope has become useless. You can take it down and throw it away now." Grandpa Li pointed to the rope and said.

Following his instructions, I took off the paper talisman and asked, "Elder, what should we do next? There won't be any more dangers. "

"Don't worry. First, take this rope outside the house and dry it in the sun for two hours. Then, bring it to the open area outside the village and burn it. Remember, it's best to stay as far away from the village as possible." Uncle Li's last sentence was very serious.

I was a little doubtful, so I asked again, "Uncle, why is it better to stay as far away from the village as possible?"

"You'll know when the time comes. You should go outside and bask in the sun as well. The yang energy in your body is obviously not enough these days." After Grandpa Li finished, he chatted happily with my grandparents.

After about two hours, I decided to let A-Cong and me go out of the village and burn the rope. We were walking along the road out of the village with the rope when we saw an old man driving past us with a donkey cart.

"Great sir, if there's nothing urgent, then help us out." I stopped the old man in the donkey cart.

"Come up, come up." The old man gestured for us to get in.

A-Cong and I jumped into the donkey cart and casually hung the rope on the seat, but strangely, since we got on the cart with the rope, the donkey pulling the cart in front of us had fallen to the ground, and no matter how the old man pulled it, it wouldn't leave.

In the end, he had no choice but to whip the donkey, which was why the donkey walked forward unwillingly. The old man told us that the donkey was the most obedient, and it was common for it to pull three to five people at once very quickly.

Although the donkey was willing to pull us forward, he chose a place that was not easy to walk in. There was no pit or slope, he had to walk towards that place.

It puzzled us both, but then we thought it might be the problem with the rope, so we thanked him and got out of the car. We walked three or four miles until we found a clearing, and it was still relatively far from the village.

The two of us went to the middle of the clearing, threw the rope there, lit the fire, and began to burn.

However, the moment the rope began to burn, it released a strong stench. This smell was not like burning hemp rope at all, but rather like burning a corpse.

"Wow!" Both A-Cong and I couldn't stand the stench, so we ran to the side and vomited. This vomit seemed to be able to spit out all of our internal organs.

His stomach felt empty until he spat out the sour water. Only then did he feel much better.

As the rope burned to the end, I thought I heard a woman scream. It was so low that at first I thought I had misheard, but then I asked A-Cong, and he heard me too.

I finally understood why Mr. Li wanted us to stay as far away from the village as possible. If we burned this rope in the village, then the whole village would be filled with the stench, and then it wouldn't be just me and Ah Cong who vomited.

After burning the rope, everything was done. Just when I was about to go back to the village and ask Mr. Li where he took my grandfather that month, I suddenly saw a few large poplar trees nearby. There were some large poplar trees, so it wasn't strange that there wasn't a single leaf on one of the poplar trees.
