Cultivation of Evil Spirits (3)
The reality is worse than they expected.
After arriving at Zhangjiajie, they realized that there were no buses today. Because the terrain was steep, all buses departed in the morning, and the last bus was 11:30. The terrain along the way was steep. In order to avoid the danger of driving at night, buses returned in the afternoon.
In this way, Xu Yuanfang and He Lingyu will stay in Zhangjiajie for one night and take the bus tomorrow morning.
Fortunately, they were not lonely either. Because they had just settled in a hotel near the airport, the two of them received a voice message from Si Kai, allowing them to enter the temporary WeChat group.
Si Kai shared a photo with sloppy handwriting and a handwritten English document.
Si Kai explained: "Unfortunately, Anna's ex-husband, Mr. Hall, had a stroke and could only speak intermittently. This document was written by him before the stroke and handed over to his lawyer for custody, and signed a letter of authorization. If someone comes to him to investigate his ex-wife after he dies of illness or loses his ability to do so, the lawyer will ask the lawyer to hand over the document to the person after finding out the identity of the person. The lawyer I brought to have checked it. These are all in line with the legal procedures and were written by Mr. Hall with a clear mind."
Mr. Hall wrote at the beginning of the document: I have been keeping this secret for more than half a century, and I don't know if anyone will remember it, but I hope that one day, all this will be revealed to the world.
He Lingyu and Xu Yuanfang looked at each other, and both of them saw excitement in each other's eyes.
Unfortunately, Mr. Hall's handwriting was too sloppy, and the photos were not very clear due to light. Xu Yuanfang felt his eyes sore after only looking at a few lines. He had to say to Si Kai: "Tell us directly what Mr. Hall said."
"No, it's not safe." Si Kai said.
"We are very safe... Are you worried that your phone will be eavesdropped?" Xu Yuanfang asked.
"It's not a cell phone, I'm worried that the ghost will hear it." Si Kai said.
He Lingyu laughed loudly, and she shook her wrist and said proudly: "I can guarantee that there are no ghosts within five hundred meters."
"I mean, I often don't live at home. What if there are ghosts staying in the house like when I was in an inn?" Si Kai said in a low voice.
He Lingyu and Xu Yuanfang stared at each other with big eyes, and they were completely speechless.
I have to say that Master Si’s learning from one example and another has entered the realm of transformation.
The two had to bite the bullet and translate the document. It turned out that Mr. Hall worked for Anna's father's company when he was young. The company was very small, with only a dozen people. Shortly after he joined the company, Mr. Hall discovered that Anna's father was a very terrifying person.
He and other employees in the company are members of an evil local organization, which advocates dedication and sharing everything, including property and husband and wife. Anna's mother divorced because she did not want to join the organization. When she left, she wanted to take Anna away, but was rejected by Anna's father and family, and she humiliated and abused Anna's mother. Anna's mother was a Chinese born in the UK. Her parents died and were lonely and helpless. She was worried that she would continue to be persecuted, so she returned to China.
After Mr. Hall found out that there was something wrong with the company, he wanted to resign. However, he realized that Anna's father had tampered with the contract. If Mr. Hall resigned, he would have to pay huge compensation.
Helplessly, he had to continue working in this company according to the contract, because according to cooperation, he had to work for five years, otherwise it would be considered a breach of contract.
In his second year of work, Anna's father found him and told him that he could terminate the contract early on, on the condition that he had to marry his daughter.
Mr. Hall has met Anna several times, and he has a good impression of Anna, so Anna's father came to him.
Mr. Hall first wanted to terminate the contract as soon as possible, and secondly, he also liked Anna, so the two got married soon.
On the night of the marriage, Anna told him: "I am pregnant, but my father betrayed me for the sake of money, but I can't tell him the news of my pregnancy, otherwise he will kill me. That's why I want to marry you, and my father is willing to marry me out in order to reassure the Si family."
Mr. Hall was shocked and asked, "Then are you going to give birth to the baby?"
Anna smiled and said, "Yes, but I don't know whether this is a man or a woman. If it is a boy, then you should be his father. If it is a girl, we will divorce."
At that time, Mr. Hall didn't know why she made such a decision, and he didn't understand what it had to do with the child's gender.
Later, Anna gave birth to a girl who was very beautiful, unlike Anna's mixed-race face. This girl had a standard oriental face.
Mr. Hall was reluctant to let it go. He regretted agreeing to divorce, but at this time, Anna's father suddenly came over and he wanted the child.
"This child should be dedicated to the organization, not to fall into the hands of non-organizers like Hall."
At this time, Mr. Hall had left Anna's father's company. He was no longer afraid. He called the police and hired a lawyer.
Then, Anna told him: "It's useless. My father must snatch the child. Because the letter my mother sent me was taken away by him, he knew the purpose of this child, so he would snatch the child."
"The use of a child? She is just a baby, how can it be useful?" Mr. Hall was puzzled.
"My mother is an Oriental. Although she was born in England, her mother, that is, my grandmother, comes from a mysterious Oriental family. When I was pregnant, my mother told me that if I gave birth to a girl, I could send it back. After I gave birth to the child, my mother told me that the child must be sent to her as soon as possible, otherwise it would be known by those who are interested that the child would be in danger. But this letter was taken away by my father. Although he didn't know what was going on, he wanted to use the child to help me and my mother."
After Anna told Mr. Hall about these things, she filed for divorce.
And on the day of the divorce, Anna and her children disappeared.
At the beginning, Mr. Hall thought Anna was taking her children to China, but soon after, he found that Anna's father was gone, so he suspected that Anna's father had kidnapped Anna and her daughter.
He contacted the local police but found nothing, and Mr. Hall was disturbed by the organization, who set fire to his house and lost his job, and Mr. Hall had to leave the city.
Mr. Hall has always been very concerned about Anna's mother and daughter. He invited a friend who was still living in that city to help pay attention to Anna's father's whereabouts.
But it was not until a few years later that he received news about Anna's father.
Anna's father died in a train station in a small town and was killed.
Mr. Hall never returned to that city. It was not until decades later that he knew that he had little life, so he decided to write down what he knew. Now that technology is well developed, he hopes that someone will find him when this matter is brought up.
The end of this document is a birthday, the girl's birthday.
He Lingyu frowned. She opened a perpetual calendar app from her mobile phone and checked the girl's birthday. After a moment, she smiled: "As I guess, it was born in Yin year, Yin month, Yin day, Yin day, Yin. It is pure Yin life, suitable for being a ghost."
Suitable for being a ghost?
Xu Yuanfang was dumbfounded. Is this ghost also a profession? Is it suitable or not?
Seeing his face full of disbelief, He Lingyu asked, "Tell me your birthday."
Xu Yuanfang had to say a string of numbers. He Lingyu opened the perpetual calendar and compared it for a while, saying, "You are not suitable. Even if you become a ghost, it is the most useless kind. Well, you can rest assured that no one will snatch your body after you die."
