Chapter 32 Evil Ghost
"clang…!"
"Clang...!Clang...!"
The sound of the bells was getting closer and closer, and the room was silent. Yu Xu and his parents were afraid to let out, and they kept trembling. Chen Jiangtao, Miao Li and Zhang Min looked at each other, looking at each other. He originally thought that the sound of the bell was only part of the rumors about evil ghosts in Zhangjia Village, but he didn't expect that it would actually appear now.
"It's really... there's really an evil ghost..." Zhang Min was so scared that her face was pale and her whole body trembled. If Miao Li hadn't been supporting her, she might have been spread on the ground.
Chen Jiangtao listened to the sound of the bell outside intently, and he was a little confused. The sound of the bell sounded dull and long, not a normal bell sound. After careful identification, he determined that this should be the sound of the bell.
The bell is usually used by Taoist priests, Yin and Yang people. The bell used by ordinary people is a round or square hammer inside, and the sound made after shaking is relatively crisp. The inside of the bell is a tongue-shaped body that penetrates from the top. By tying the tongue-shaped body at the top of the bell, you can make a sound, and make a dull tone.
The bell was already very close. Chen Jiangtao stood up and walked quietly towards the yard. The people in the house were shocked and scared when they saw his actions.
Yu Xu's parents were even more scared, but they could not stop talking, because the sound of the bell had reached the doorstep. If they shouted Chen Jiangtao now, if the evil ghost heard it, the sound of the bell stopped at the doorstep, it would be a big disaster.
Chen Jiangtao walked into the yard, leaned against the base of the wall beside the gate, and his right ear was attached to the wall and listened carefully to the movement outside.

Dang~~Dang~~~
The sound of the bell was close at hand. Chen Jiangtao listened hard, but except for the sound of the bell, he could only hear a slight clicking and a slight sound. It was obviously not the sound of footsteps. Could it be that the one outside was really an evil ghost?
The sound of bells from far to near is like floating in the air.
Chen Jiangtao leaned to the door more carefully and looked out through the gap. The situation outside shocked him. He saw a bloated and fat black shadow floating in the air, two thumb-thick things stretched out from left and right and fell to the ground. The sound of the bell was the sound of the black shadow.
What is this? Even Chen Jiangtao was stunned now. He felt his feet tremble. However, as a Feng Shui master, even when Chen Jiangtao saw this abnormal situation, he was just guessing.
After the bell passed, Chen Jiangtao took a deep breath and opened the door with courage. The black shadow was supported by two thin things and had already floated to the corner of the alley.
Chen Jiangtao quickly looked at the surrounding situation, reached out to find a gossip mirror, threw it up quickly, and hung it on the eaves of Yu Xu's house.
Then Chen Jiangtao touched a small stone from the ground, counted silently in his heart three times, and threw it out in the direction of the black shadow.
"Pu!" The stone made a crisp sound. Chen Jiangtao shrank behind the door and immediately looked up at the Bagua Mirror. In the Bagua Mirror, the black shadow turned around. Chen Jiangtao saw it clearly, and it was clearly a human face.
However, the situation in the mirror was a bit strange. It was a middle-aged man with a bloated figure like a ball. He was almost hanging in the air, supported by two thin things protruding from his body.
When the middle-aged man saw that there was no one behind him, he showed a look of panic on his face, his body swung rapidly, and the bell made a muffled sound, and he disappeared from the corner of the street.
Chen Jiangtao closed the door quietly and returned to the house. He glanced at the people who were still panicked in the room and smiled slightly: "You are all fooled. The sound of the bell is not the sound of some evil ghosts, but someone pretended to be a ghost in your village. I just saw it clearly. He was a middle-aged man in his forties."
"Mid-aged man?" Yu Xu's father shook his head: "Impossible. Some brave ones have peeked at it before, saying that the evil ghost is floating in the air, and it is definitely impossible for a human being. There are still several dirt roads in the village. If a person passes there, it is impossible for him to leave his footprints."
"Indeed, I saw that man floating in the air, only supported by two very thin things." Chen Jiangtao was still recalling the middle-aged man's face just now. He felt a little familiar and seemed to have seen it there. So he said with certainty: "Although I don't know how that man did it, I'm sure that he must be a person."
Chen Jiangtao's words made Miao Li and Zhang Min relax a little. Although Yu Xu and his parents were confused, his father vigilantly opened the corner of the curtain and peeked out for a while. He found that nothing was abnormal. Then he breathed a sigh of relief: "Huh, no matter whether it is a human or a ghost, just pass by my doorstep, that's fine."
As the crisis passed, the atmosphere in the room eased.
Yu Xu's parents looked at Chen Jiangtao and thought that this young man was very brave. When the bell rang, the people in Zhangjia Village were frightened and did not dare to show off. Chen Jiangtao was fine. Not only did he touch it, but he also threw stones at the "evil ghost".
"I had seen the man's face clearly just now. I was very familiar with him. I must have seen it there." Chen Jiangtao added.
"What, you are not only sure that the evil ghost is a human, but you also feel familiar..." Yu Xu's parents looked at each other, and they didn't believe Chen Jiangtao's words.
Yu Xu asked: "Chen Jiangtao, are you saying that someone deliberately pretending to be a ghost in our village to scare us, so what is his purpose? Even if it is a prank, it is impossible for him to last for so many years, right? Besides, who is so bored doing these things to a village? "
"And." Yu Xu said with lingering fear: "The sound of this bell stopped at the door of that house, and that house would die on May 5th. It has happened several times in this village. It is not a rumor, but I have seen it with my own eyes."
Chen Jiangtao shook his head: "What I can be sure of now is that the sound of the bell is indeed artificial; as for the dead, I need to go to the cemetery to see the situation before I can express my opinion."
"Grave, this..." The three of the Yu Xu family looked at each other, with fear on their faces.
After a while, Yu Xu gritted his teeth and said, "My parents, Shen Jiangtao and I went to Dapo cemetery. Because of the rumors about our village, I was regarded as a monster in school. Most people were unwilling to talk to me. They usually hide when they see me. It is rare that these three classmates dare to come to our house. I also want to take this opportunity to figure out what is going on."
With the reputation of the ghost village, Yu Xu has experienced a miserable experience in school in recent years. He can only be alone in any event and is also pointed at by others at any time.
