"certainly!"

I nodded affirmatively, and there were indeed many questions in my heart that I wanted to ask him. Apart from anything else, Lao Zhangtou's ability to catch ghosts alone made me very curious.

Although I was an unlucky child, I was not stupid.

Lao Zhangtou's identity is by no means as simple as that of an ordinary school janitor. With his abilities, how can he not make a living in the world? No matter how bad he is, he will not be reduced to working as a cleaner here. Every month

Are you a school worker who only earns 800 yuan after working so hard?

Although he is a little hidden in the woods and a big man is hidden in the city, the life of this old Zhangtou is too miserable, right? Before this, I thought he was rejected by his children and was forced to come to school because of his livelihood.

I'm a school janitor! Now it seems that I was too stupid and naive.

"OK!"

Lao Zhangtou was surprisingly cheerful and nodded: "Then just ask. It's best to ask everything you want to ask at once, so as not to waste everyone's time."

"Why did Zhang Yao die?"

Although I am very curious about the identity of Lao Zhangtou, what I am most concerned about now is the real cause of Zhang Yao's death. After all, the matter is now widely spread in the school, and almost most people think that Zhang Yao was killed by me.

Damn it, if this matter doesn't get to the bottom of things, I won't have to stay in this school!

"Um?"

After hearing my first question, Lao Zhangtou couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. In his opinion, maybe I should ask about his identity for this first question. Unexpectedly, I actually held back my curiosity.

, but asked him about the real cause of Zhang Yao’s death?

After giving me a strange look, Lao Zhangtou said, "Do you want to ask about the direct cause or the fundamental cause?"

"Is there any difference?"

I glanced at Lao Zhangtou suspiciously. I was a little confused about what Lao Zhangtou meant by this. It’s not an analysis of the reasons for the victory of the Anti-Japanese War. How can we distinguish between direct causes and fundamental causes?

"The direct reason is that the little girl believed the lies and was bewitched by the shadow girl, so she chose to jump off the building and end her life."

"Nonsense?"

If it were three days ago, I would have thought that what Lao Zhangtou said was pure nonsense. However, since seeing the "shadow girl" with my own eyes, I have no doubts about what Lao Zhangtou said, and at the same time, I have

Reminds me of some folklore about "ghost stories".

According to folklore, the reason why ghosts chirp in the ears of living people is just to find a substitute. It is said that the idiom "a continuous stream of ghosts" comes from this.

Most of these ghosts die in vain, were wronged before death, and are entangled with resentment in their hearts, so they cannot be reincarnated at all. Only on the night of the first seven days can they find someone who died in a similar way to them as their substitute, so that they can be reincarnated.

Otherwise, they will always be a lonely ghost, washed by the wind every day until their souls are gone.

However, it is really not easy to find someone who dies in a similar way to oneself in just one night. Therefore, they will try their best to seduce some interested people on the first seven nights.

A person who has thoughts of committing suicide.

In other words, Zhang Yao had already had the idea of ​​committing suicide long before the shadow girl bewitched her?

"wrong!"

Suddenly, I seemed to have captured something, and quickly asked: "According to what you said before, the shadow girl is definitely not a ghost in the ordinary sense. She doesn't need a substitute, so why do you want to bewitch Zhang Yao and let her die?

"

"Hey! That's good. We've been apart for three days. You should treat me with admiration. You actually know about the idea of ​​a substitute?"

Lao Zhangtou looked at me teasingly and said with a smile: "You are right. Ordinary ghosts bewitch the living to death, just to find a substitute. But this shadow girl is different. The so-called shadow girl, that's a ranking.

The super powerful ghosts of the 'Hundred Ghost List'! This type of ghost has already learned some superficial cultivation methods and tempted Zhang Yao to die, just to devour her ghost and achieve his own goal of improving his Taoism!"

"According to "The Biography of One Hundred Ghosts", once she has swallowed seven or forty-nine ghosts, she will be able to cultivate into a ghost. By then, let alone me, even ten of me may not be

Her opponent!"

"I see……"

Old Zhangtou's explanation finally made me realize. It turned out that Zhang Yao jumped off the building because of listening to the lies. Let me just say, how could this thing that is impossible to deal with have anything to do with me?

I'm a little unlucky, but I'm not unlucky enough to kill even my classmates, right?

After confirming that Zhang Yao's death had nothing to do with me, I couldn't help but feel a lot more relaxed. I felt like I had been wronged. Then I asked, "Then what was the root cause of Zhang Yao's jumping off the building?"

?”

"I'm not sure about this..."

Lao Zhangtou shook his head and said: "Only the person involved knows about this. However, based on my many years of experience, a young woman like Zhang Yao is most likely to be trapped by love! Either

The body has been violated by others..."

"Yeah! I think so too!"

Lao Zhangtou's words seemed to have reached my heart. I nodded in agreement, and I quickly added: "I heard her scold me before, saying that men are not good at all!"

"now it's right!"

After hearing what I added, Lao Zhangtou, who was still unsure at first, couldn't help but nodded in affirmation, and then told me: "Well, if you have time, you might as well go out and inquire about this little girl's life before she was alive.

Who is her sweetheart? Or who bullied her..."

"Um?"

When I heard this, I couldn't help but be stunned on the spot, and subconsciously asked: "Why are you looking for this heartless man? Do you still want to avenge Zhang Yao?"

"of course not!"

Lao Zhangtou rolled his eyes at me with a speechless expression, and then explained: "If I want to destroy an ordinary resentful ghost like Zhang Yao, it will only take a matter of minutes! But isn't she your classmate? God will bring good luck.

De, since the little girl’s ghost has left Shadow Girl, I can’t just make her go away, right?”

"That's true!"

After hearing this, I couldn't help but nodded quickly. Even though Zhang Yao's ghost wanted to kill me, she was my classmate after all, and I couldn't bear to really kill her.

"So, to untie the bell, you must tie the bell. If you can find the man who failed her, all causes and effects will be solved. As long as I can resolve the resentment in her heart, I will be sure to save her and let her enter reincarnation again.

"

"Okay! That's it!"

Lao Zhangtou's method can be said to be the best of both worlds. It can not only prevent Zhang Yao from continuing to do evil, but also preserve her soul and reincarnate again. As Zhang Yao's classmate, I will naturally not object and will quickly find the "heart-breaking"

"Han" has been taken care of.

"last question!"

After asking about Zhang Yao, I carefully looked at the old man in front of me, and said with a serious face: "Who are you? What is the purpose of lurking in the school?"

"cut!"

Seeing the serious look on my face, Lao Zhangtou couldn't help but curled his lips in disdain and said with a teasing smile: "It seems like I have some ulterior conspiracy!"

"To tell you the truth, I came here just for you!"

"I?"

As soon as I heard this, I almost instinctively took two steps back, thinking to myself, the old guy looks so wretched, could he be an old glass?

"piss off!"

As if he was aware of what I was thinking, Lao Zhang hit me on the head with a bang, ignoring my alert gaze. He then sat down on my bedside and asked with interest.

: "If my guess is correct, you should be the grandson of Lao Wang next door, right?"

"Lao Wang next door?"

Who is Lao Wang next door? Is this old guy scolding me?

"Hmph! Why are you pretending to be stupid?"

Seeing my confused look, Lao Zhangtou couldn't help but snorted coldly on the spot: "You dare to say that old bastard Wang Lingfeng is not your grandfather?"

"Um?"

When I heard the words "Wang Lingfeng", my expression finally changed, and I subconsciously exclaimed, "How do you know my grandfather's name!"

That’s right!

My grandfather's name is Wang Lingfeng! But how did Lao Zhangtou know it? You know, I have never mentioned my grandfather's name in front of him?

"Hey……"

Seeing that I admitted the matter, a knowing smile appeared on Lao Zhangtou's face, and then he said with a proud face: "The evil star has changed his fate against the will of heaven, and he has dragon energy to protect his body. Putian
