The Taoist priest hesitated for a second and asked, "Is it the sound of hitting the ball late at night?"
"This is the beginning!" The woman wrinkled her nose and slapped her thigh, "It doesn't matter if there is just a sound. There are many people who heard the ball slapping, but it doesn't have any impact on their lives."
When women communicate with them, they try their best to use Mandarin.
"Sister, what do you mean..."
"Just call me Sister Fang. My son's name is Han Jixiu. You can call him Axiu..." Sister Fang put her arms on her knees and looked very handsome. "I'm not in a hurry about the ball. I'm in a hurry."
It’s another one…”
Xiaolan turned on the voice recorder and prepared to record the clues provided by Sister Xia.
The Taoist priest nodded approvingly, then turned to Sister Fang and said, "You start speaking, Sister Fang."
"I don't know when the sound of the ball started. I only know that since the ball incident, there have been more and more strange things in the community. The ball incident is scary at most, but other things are not so
It’s easy.”
"So you want us to help you resolve the source of these strange things?" the Taoist priest asked.
"I don't understand these things, but I think those things are not that easy to deal with. It will definitely not be easy to get rid of those things, so I just hope that the two masters can... can you tell my Axiu that the problem has been solved?
Tell him to stop being suspicious?"
After hearing this, Xiaolan suddenly became enlightened.
No wonder Sister Fang looked like she was hesitant to speak just now.
Seeing the tall and strong woman in front of her looking at her with tears in her eyes, Xiaolan's sympathy popped out again.
"Auntie, do you want us to act out a show in front of Axiu?"
Sister Fang nodded excitedly.
"But if the strange thing is not solved, sooner or later someone will come to you to complain." The Taoist priest asked sharply.
"Leave those to me. I'll catch the gangsters myself," Sister Fang patted her chest. "It's just my son who believes in this. He won't give up until I give him a play. Axiu will take the college entrance examination next year, but he can't
Delay him..."
"So..." the Taoist priest sneered slightly, "you don't believe that the appearance of these things is supernatural."
Sister Fang glanced at the two of them strangely, "We are not children anymore and we are not super-supernatural. Didn't I briefly tell you about this situation when I contacted you? You also said that you are most familiar with going through the motions..."
Seeing that this was going to be exposed, Xiaolan quickly changed the subject.
"Sister, why don't you tell us what happened in the community after the ball shooting," Xiaolan sat up straight and said, "No matter how we deal with it, we have to do an on-site inspection first."
Sister Fang felt it made sense and nodded.
"Not long after the football incident happened, something new happened," Sister Fang said solemnly. "Although the football incident was a bit scary, it didn't have a bad impact on people, but what happened after that was not
For sure!”
"First, a resident came over and said that the water pipe in his house was broken. There was a creaking sound at night. The strange sound gradually disappeared after a while, but the sound was the same the next night, and the sound was heard several times.
Damn it, I don’t know what is making the noise.
"I asked the water pipe repairman to come over and take a look. The water pipes were fine, but a little old. Later, when I inquired about it, not only the residents in that house could hear it, but all the residents nearby would hear the sound in the middle of the night. This was no longer possible.
There is only a problem in his house. It is probably because of something wrong with the drainage of his house. But if there is a problem in the whole building, it may be that the pipes are all aging. I encourage the people in that building to change the water pipes together. Group buying can still help.
It's cheaper, everyone agreed, and nothing happened during the days when the water pipes were replaced. The construction team was pretty good, and the residents were quite satisfied with it anyway. But the day after all the pipes were replaced, the house that came to me in the first place
The resident came again, and I wondered if the noise was still there, but they said that there was no sound from the water pipe. This time, the sound was in his living room..."
Sister Fang lowered her head and took a sip of tea, then quickly continued.
"That family was a young couple. They stayed awake in the middle of the night because they had to change the water pipes. They were afraid that the water pipes would make noise again. When the time came when the water pipes usually made noise, they pricked up their ears and listened. The water pipes were really loud.
There was no sound. They were just about to fall asleep when they heard something moving in the living room - it wasn't loud, but it was quiet at night. They heard a very soft sound coming from the living room, like a puppy walking on the ground...
…”
"Does the puppy make any noise when it walks?" Xiaolan asked curiously.
"It seems like you have never raised a puppy before," Sister Fang said, imitating it with her hands. "The puppy walks on the floor and makes that clicking sound..."
"What happens next, Sister Fang?"
Sister Fang retracted her hand and vividly acted out the scene at that time, "They were afraid that a thief had broken in, so they ran to the living room to see what happened. As a result, the two of them searched around, let alone people, puppies and kittens.
They didn't see it either. They didn't believe in evil and spent the whole night searching. They searched the house and found nothing. Then the little girl suggested that they should be quiet first and see if they could hear the noise again.
Standing still and listening, I actually heard it - the movement was right behind them!"
Sister Fang spoke excitedly, and Xiaolan couldn't help but wonder, is this really a person who doesn't believe in the theory of strange powers and gods?
"The two of them were frightened at the time. When they looked back, they saw nothing, but the movement was definitely there. They packed their luggage overnight, ran over to me, told me about the situation, and went to live outside.
"
"Auntie," Xiaolan asked helplessly, "do you still think this situation was caused by gangsters?"
"There are bad people who are forcing us to demolish!" Sister Fang stared angrily, "That group of people came to see us several times. The compensation for the demolition is not enough to buy a toilet in another community. I don't know what they use.
No matter what method, I will catch them sooner or later... But I can't do anything about Axiu, Axiu thought it must be haunted, didn't I just invite you here..."
"Okay, Sister Fang," the Taoist priest stood up, "you can take us to that house to have a look first. What if we can help you solve the problem?"
Sister Fang looked at the two of them hesitantly.
"Let's just take a look," Xiaolan grabbed Sister Fang's hand and smiled innocently, "Even if we can't solve it, there's no loss, Auntie."
Sister Fang nodded, rubbed Xiaolan's head, then turned around and ran upstairs.
"Then I'll get his house key."
Xiaolan and Taoist Master took this opportunity to look at each other and confirm their eyes.
There does seem to be a problem in this neighborhood.
Maybe what happened at Master Tie's house is related to the strange things in the community.
You have to deal with it piece by piece and slowly.
