A Guest In A Ghost House

Witch Yan handed me the cyan stone that had been condensed in the bowl, and I took it with my hands . It still keeps original shape as it was in the bowl, but it was hardening . I secretly scratched with my fingernails . It felt like scratching on a hard stone, and what was weirder was that I couldn"t feel any weight .

Witch Yan didn"t explain what it was but just took me back home . On the way home, she asked me to pack up the cyan stone, put it on Xueer and couldn"t lost it .

Witch Yan straightly backed to her room and slept . It seemed that my mother knew something, she asked a relative for a bag to pack the cyan stone, and then hung it on Xueer"s chest .

Xueer was curious and wanted to take it away . She was scolded severely by my mother, she ran into my arms just like a spoiled child .

Child forgot things quickly, Xueer played happily with her friends soon, I also walk to Aunt Li who was basking there, asked curiously .

I noticed that Aunt Li was very concerned about the cyan stone, after hearing my question, she said with great emotion, "I couldn"t image there is such a brilliant person in this small rural village . That"s a stone of the ancestor so that the dead ancestors can protect their descendants . "

My heart trembled, I asked, "Both you and Witch Yan are so powerful . But who is more powerful?"

Aunt Li looked at me, her eyes were glaring, paused then said: "if she had only these skills, we would be in about the same . "

I nodded, Witch Yan had been exhausted by getting the ancestral stone, it showed that she had reached her limit, there may be some other skills hidden, but I estimated that it would not exceed too much, so if there was a battle between Aunt Li and Witch Yan the result should be even . But didn"t forget, there was a Phoenix, ghost house would win definitely .

It made my heart relax a lot, I did not know why I always feel a bit of vigilance and resistance to Witch Yan, although I understood that my thought seemed to be wrong according to her behaviors .

Xueer was forbidden to go to the village, because it was where she had an accident in the photo, but I couldn"t understand why I was not allowed to go either . And according to my observation, it seemed no one could go there, whether it was my mother, Witch Yan or Aunt Li, it made me have a feeling as if everyone knew the situation, It also made my heart feel like I scratching by cat, itching inside .

The life in the village was very boring, although had electricity and the television, but could only receive several channels, and did not have any internet connection, even couldn"t receive 4G signal . Although I had met so many weird things I had never seen before, I still felt bored .

And when I was thinking whether or not I should go to the old locust tree at the entrance of the village, things changed .

I usually got up very late, when I got up, I found everyone sitting in the hall room, and xueer was aggrieved in my mother"s arms, the ancestral stone which was placed on Xueer"s chest these days was placed directly on the table, it became smaller than before .

I realized that there was something wrong even without other people told me, but everyone was talking, I dared not to ask rashly, I merely sat next to my mother and listened quietly .

Witch Yan said: "Xueer, you must obey, you can"t run around anymore, understand? And where have you been this morning? "

Xueer pouted, with an aggrieved face: "The stone just became smaller by itself . "

Witch Yan smiled as if there was a chrysanthemum on her old face: "I know, but where were you playing with your little friends?"

Xueer said, "I don"t know . You didn"t get up . Brother Xiao Hu came to see Xueer . Then he took Xueer to a big tree, where there were many children, but I had no idea of how to play the games they were playing, moreover they were not willing to told me . " Then great-grandfather came and scared away the children . Then I came back . Sorry, I was wrong . "

Xueer said, "I don"t know . You didn"t get up . Brother Xiao Hu came to see Xueer . Then he took Xueer to a big tree, where there were many children, but I had no idea of how to play the games they were playing, moreover they were not willing to told me . " Then great-grandfather came and scared away the children . Then I came back . Sorry, I was wrong . "

Witch Yan touched Xueer"s head, put the ancestral stone back to Xueer and let Xueer go out to play, when Xueer got up, Phoenix who had no sense of existence stood up, following Xueer and went out .

My mother was very worried, but after Witch Yan looked at Phoenix, she comforted my mother and said it was fine, my mother was very convinced of Witch Yan, and it seemed that the ident.i.ty of Phoenix and Aunt Li had been known by Witch Yan for a long time .

It wasn"t until Xueer walked away that the conversation began again, and the first person started to say was Witch Yan, "Oh, we can"t avoid it . I must go to Xiaohu"s house to take a look at him,he is a good boy, hopefully there is nothing wrong . When I come back, let"s go to the old locust tree together . "

Witch Yangot up and went to Xiaohu" house, I did not know why my heart had a kind of inexplicable excitement and long-lost feeling when I heard that we could go to the entrance to the village, the feeling was just liked a game you had been longing to play for a long time, and suddenly you could play it one day .

Witch Yan came back quickly, after breakfast, we planned to leave, my mother still don"t join in us this time . She wanted to go . After all it was about her granddaughter, but after Witch Yan said that she had to take care of Xueer, my mother stopped talking for a moment and staring at me, her eyes with a ferocious reminder, I quickly made promise to her, I must find it out and don"t be hurt, my mother just told me to be careful then she went to take care of Xueer .

Since my mother have known what happened to me, she had been very strict to me, if not because of Xueer, it seemed that mom would definitely not let me partic.i.p.ate, mom wanted to protect me and Xueer, I also wanted to protect them .

Phoenix stayed with Xue`er all the time, after hearing Jiao Jiao"s story, Xiao Lingdang went with Jiao Jiao to find her body, they haven"t been seen for a long time, so only I, Witch Yan and Aunt Li went to the village entrance .

The village entrance still had a vague impression in my mind . As we got closer, there were more things recalled, most of them were the pictures that I played with my friends at the village entrance when I was a child .

Unfortunately, since the road has been repaired, the path of village entrance has been abandoned, basically no one go through it, it was very desolate, I was very familiar with everything on the road, however, I had a very strange feeling when I reach entrance of the village .

The ancient well was still there, but there was a slate on it, which firmly covered the well, the old locust tree was bigger, covering the whole entrance of village, even though the sun was s.h.i.+ning, I could still feel the coolness when I was at the entrance of village .

The ground was covered by fine loess without any weeds, it was almost an impossible phenomenon, I couldn"t help recalling of the locust tree that I saw in my dream .

Witch Yan was leading us, we did not approach the old tree, instead, stopped at a place where the sun was still s.h.i.+ning . She sat down on a stone chair which was almost covered by weeds as if she knew this place very well .

I did not know why, I could only imitate as she did, I thought that Witch Yan was trying to observe something, but she did nothing, she was just chatting with Aunt Li as if they were sitting in courtyard .. Witch Yan handed me the cyan stone that had been condensed in the bowl, and I took it with my hands . It still keeps original shape as it was in the bowl, but it was hardening .
