Raising Ghosts Records

Chapter 144

Tongtong yelled that Brother Jumping River doesn't want to wear it, but I have already put it on my middle finger.

As soon as I put on this blood-red ring, I immediately felt that my whole body was soaked in a bucket of ice water. A biting cold seemed to penetrate into my soul, freezing all my souls and seven souls.

The flashlight fell into the ditch and went out, Tongtong's voice was never heard again, the whole world seemed to become extremely silent in an instant, the vast darkness, even the stars and the moon in the sky were gone.

After an unknown amount of time, a red light shot out from the ground less than ten meters away in front of me, and a red lantern emerged from there three seconds later.After the red lantern came out of the ground, it rose slowly, and finally reached the height of a floor and stopped, maintaining a suspended state without moving.

I squatted by the ditch in a daze, thinking very clearly, isn't this the red lantern in the old blue brick house that night, why did it appear again.I looked at the blood-red ring on my right middle finger, and knew that it was probably because I wore it that this red lantern appeared.

Looking at the red lantern, I was inexplicably terrified, and hurriedly called Tongtong out, but Tongtong didn't respond, as if she had been isolated in another time and space.As soon as I touched the pocket, my scalp felt numb. The bronze knife and the beads that Tongtong lived in were all gone, and the pocket was so flat that there was nothing left.

I hurried to pick off the blood-red ring on my middle finger, but I couldn't take it off no matter what, as if it grew together with the flesh, and it hurt my heart when I pulled it, just like the golden hoop of Monkey King.

I couldn't get the blood-red ring, so I saw a stick on the ground, so I quickly picked it up and held it in my hand, trying to rush under the lantern and beat it down.However, at this time, the red lantern suddenly became very bright, illuminating several paddy fields around it. It became redder and brighter, and then the whole village, and the surrounding mountains were illuminated blood-red.

In the end, I didn't know how bright the red lantern became, because I couldn't open my eyes anymore, and the saying I often say is "blind."

I don't know how long it took, but I felt that the red lanterns were getting darker, so I opened my eyes and saw the surrounding scenery constantly changing again.Every time the red lantern dimmed, everything around me seemed to go backwards for a year, and the moment the red lantern was finally extinguished, I went back to the end of the Qing Dynasty.

Because I know it is the end of the Qing Dynasty?Because the old blue brick house reappeared not far away, and it was a new house, and a person was playing with a birdcage in front of the house.

OMG!Is this the rhythm of time travel? It's unlikely. It's probably because I put on the blood-red ring, and what I see now is just a hallucination.

Is this ring telling me some secret?If yes why did you tell me, if no why did you let me see this, this should be a complete replay of what happened that year.

It was night when I put on the blood-red ring, but it is daytime now, and it is the summer season, and the rice fields around me are ripe.There are many small houses in the village, some are made of stone and brick, some are made of wood and bamboo, which are similar to those we saw in some ancient towns, but the houses are smaller.

Although I can see everything around me, I can't hear the sound, as if the whole world is silent, and even those people only move their mouths when they speak, and there is no sound coming out.

The mountains are still those mountains, and the mountains have not changed for more than a hundred years, but the trees have changed a lot.Curiously, I turned my head and looked around, and suddenly a man in a gray gown came out of the old blue brick house, followed by a man in a three-color coarse cloth, who should be the bodyguard of the family.I took a closer look and saw that the one in the gray gown was the hanged ghost, but at the moment he didn't look like a hanged ghost, but a scholar.

The hanged ghost walked straight towards me after he came out of the blue brick house. I couldn't help wondering, did he know me?But I obviously don't know him!
The hanged ghost was getting closer and closer to me, and finally he and the bodyguard passed through my body and walked straight ahead.

God!Now I was even more sure that what I saw was an illusion, and my anxiety was a little lighter, so I immediately followed.The hanged ghost and the bonded worker couldn't see me, so I followed behind them to the mouth of the Majiang River, where there were many boats and bamboo rafts.

The hanged ghost summoned a small boat, and after he boarded the boat, the bonded worker went home, and then the boat rowed to the opposite bank.I knew that I was in an illusion at this moment, and I walked directly to the surface of the river. I didn't sink, and walked on the water with the boat that the hanged ghost was sitting on.

A few minutes later the boat docked, and the hanged ghost came to Majiang Town after landing, and finally met a young girl. It turned out that this guy was here for a date.

The hanged ghost and the girl bought some food in the town, walked directly to the mountain beside the town, and finally sat down in front of a smooth big rock halfway up the mountain.They were eating and chatting, I could only see their mouths moving, but couldn't hear their voices, and they didn't come down until evening.After coming down from the mountain, the hanged ghost bought a lot of things and gave them to the girl to take home, and the hanged ghost also started to go home.

The Hanged Ghost returned to the Ma River, and there was a small boat parked on the shore of the small town. He boarded the small boat, and then rowed to the other side.However, when they got to the middle of the river, the bottom of the river was lit up with red light, and the hanged ghost signaled the boatman to stop, as if saying that something had fallen into the river.

The hanged ghost immediately took off his clothes, and I, who was standing on the water beside the boat, immediately got into the water, and saw that the glowing red thing was a ring, that blood-red ring.

Seeing a blood-red ring lying quietly on the sand at the bottom of the river, I immediately stretched out my middle finger to look, only to see that the ring in my hand was gone, and I was suddenly happy.

The hanged ghost jumped into the water, picked up the blood-red ring, and at the same time, the red light of the blood-red ring went out immediately.After returning to the boat, the hanged ghost didn't take it out to look at it, but urged the boatman to speed up the boat, and he reached the opposite bank in a short while.

The hanged ghost returned home with the blood-red ring, and I followed him home. He returned to the room where he hanged himself, took out a delicate wooden box from the cabinet, and put the blood-red ring in it.

Seeing this, I couldn't help but shudder. The dream I had that night was indeed real. In the dream, the animal little brother opened the delicate wooden box, but there was a red light. It turned out that the blood-red ring was in the box.

The hanged ghost put the small wooden box back in the cabinet, and went out to the hall to have dinner. From the expression on the hanged ghost's conversation with his parents, I guessed that he would get married in a few days.

The dishes on the table look delicious. I stand at the table and watch them drool. I can see that I want to grab them and eat them, but my hands go straight through the plates. I have no choice but to sit aside and don’t look at them, so as not to be greedy. uncomfortable.

Not long after the meal, the hanged ghost returned to his room. After closing the door, he took out the small wooden box and lay down on the bed to take out the blood-red ring.

Everything was so natural, as if the blood-red ring was caught by a rich man who fell into the river. Judging by his happy expression, he probably gave it to his daughter-in-law on the wedding night.

Time seemed to be the day when he got married in the blink of an eye. After picking up the bride and paying homage, I followed the bride and groom into the bridal chamber.The hanged ghost carried the bride to the bed. They were talking but I couldn't hear them. I saw the hanged ghost took out a delicate wooden box from the wooden cabinet.He dug out the blood-red ring, the bride was very happy to see it, and stretched out her hand for the hanged ghost to put it on.

But the strange thing was that the blood-red ring couldn't be put on the bride's hand at all, and it always fell off and fell on the bed. The hanged ghost looked depressed and put it on his own hand.

The moment he put on the blood-red ring, a red lantern appeared from the floor of the room, illuminating the whole room red and bright.

Seeing this, I couldn't help but feel terrified. This ring really summoned the red lantern.

What is the origin of this red lantern? As soon as it appeared, the bride passed out on the bed, while the hanged ghost stood there in a daze, looking at the red lantern in front of him with dull eyes.Suddenly I saw him bend down, take out a rope from the bottom of the bed, throw it up on the beam, then tie a loop, stand on the bed and wrap it around his neck.

Then there was an instinctive struggle of the body. Within 3 minutes, the person stopped moving, just swaying inertially, and the face turned into the appearance of a hanged ghost.The tongue sticks out long, the eyeballs protrude like ping pong balls, the seven orifices bleed, and even pee comes out, dripping down the shoes and onto the bed, which is extremely disgusting.

Then the red lantern went out and disappeared, but the blood-red ring was still worn by the groom's hand, and it was because he wore this ring that he hanged himself.

Although I watched this process, I couldn't figure out why I hanged myself after wearing the ring?
The time came to the next day, the bride woke up and saw that her newlywed husband had hanged herself, she yelled and then she went crazy with fright.

The landlord, his wife, and the two private workers rushed to the door of the room immediately. When they saw the groom hanging in mid-air, they immediately collapsed to the ground, and the landlord's wife even fainted.

The landlord collapsed on the ground with a pale face, and asked the two bodyguards to enter the room to untie the hanged groom, put him on the bed and covered him with a quilt.

A bodyguard helped the landlord up, and the landlord asked two bodyguards to send the frightened bride back to her natal home immediately.After the two bonded workers left, the landlord picked up his wife and put her back on the bed in the hall room, and then went to the hanged ghost's new house.

His expression was extremely painful, Lao Tear stretched out his trembling right hand to wipe the hanged ghost's eyes, but the hanged ghost's eyes were bigger than ping pong balls, and he couldn't close them no matter how he covered them.

Suddenly the old landlord noticed something, and his eyes noticed the red ring on the hanged ghost's hand.
