01 Supernatural·Urban|Yin'er

Finale: Where there are ghosts, there will be grievances, and where there are grievances, there will be grievances.

Act One

"The moon bends, the moon bends, the moon bends and shines on the window; there is a big tabby cat by the window, the baby sees it and laughs haha."

Mo Yuhan's memory echoed the sound of nursery rhymes, as well as the intermittent crisp sound of wind chimes.

A baby boy named Xiaoxianmai was lying in the hospital's baby room, and Yuhan's mother was holding her and coaxing Xiaoxianmai outside the babyroom through the glass window.

Nurse: "Xiao Mo, you have come to the nursery again."

Yuhan's mother: "Sorry, I brought her here."

Nurse: "It's okay, Xiao Mo and Xiao Xian Mai hit it off very well. Why don't you two have a baby kiss!"

Yuhan's mother: "Don't tease me, Xiao Mo is only three years old."

Nurse: "Three years old is just right! Female junior, hold a golden brick!"

Xiaoyuhan interjected: "Mom, what is baby kiss?"

"Baby dear, you want to treat Xiaoxian Mai like a younger brother, take care of him, protect him, okay?"

"it is good!"

***

At that time, I was only three years old, and I got sick and was admitted to the hospital. I often went outside the nursery to see the newborn baby. My favorite was Xiaoxian Mai.

However, the most guilty thing I have ever done in my life is that I failed to save him.

***

One night, Xiao Yuhan heard a voice in his sleep.

"Sister..." It was a young man, but his voice was as soft as a gust of wind.

"Big brother, who are you?" The sleeping Xiao Yuhan was drawn by the voice, slowly got up, walked out of the ward in the direction of the voice, and walked in the corridor with her eyes closed.

She is sleepwalking.

"Sister, come quickly!"

"Big brother, why do you call me sister?"

"Sister, come quickly! Come and save me!"

Suddenly, Mo Yuhan felt someone sprinting towards her, and she was knocked down while she was still sleepwalking. After waking up, she saw a woman passing by with a baby in her arms.

Xiao Yuhan, who was only three years old, was frightened for a moment, and her mind went blank.

The next day, the hospital confirmed that Xiaoxian Mai was stolen by a cleaning staff last night.

Second act

Reminiscing so far, Mo Yuhan sighed quietly, looking at Si Jingxuan sitting opposite her, with a guilty and sad expression on his face.

It's been 20 years since the incident, but she still can't let it go.

At the moment she is sitting in the dining room, telling her boyfriend Si Jingxuan about this incident.

Si Jingxuan's expression was a little dazed. Seeing his girlfriend's depression, he comforted him: "A three-year-old child is still sleepwalking. It's normal that he didn't call the police or call for help. Besides, it's been so long, don't take it too seriously. .”

Mo Yuhan didn't speak, but sighed again.

Seeing that his persuasion didn't work, Si Jingxuan was awkwardly silent for a while, but couldn't help bringing up the strange details of the incident: "Did you remember the cry for help in the dream you mentioned? If it was Xiaoxian Mai , why is it the voice of a young man? Or, is it just a coincidence?"

Mo Yuhan was taken aback by this question, but immediately showed an expression of indifference, obviously she didn't care to study these details.

She shook her head, and said melancholy: "If Xiaoxian Mai is alive, she should be about the same age as you."

Si Jingxuan blinked, and then burst out laughing: "Miss, if I follow the routine of the dog-blood TV series, I should be Xiaoxian Mai, right? But you know, I was born in the hospital, and I have been taken by the nanny all the time. Da, you have seen that woman before, she is my Wu Ma."

Mo Yuhan nodded: "I know, Xiaoxian Mai is not as lucky as you."

Their dining seats were close to the floor-to-ceiling windows of the restaurant, and the glass facing Si Jingxuan turned into a mirror that could reflect their back against the backdrop of the night outside the window.

Si Jingxuan was still chatting and laughing, but Mo Yuhan saw that Si Jingxuan's back in the glass turned into a man with bangs blocking his eyes and an extremely pale complexion. This man's lips were also pale, so it looked like he had no lips. , mouth open like a black hole.

"Ah! Jingxuan, behind you..."

"Behind me?" Si Jingxuan turned his head to look, then turned back in a daze, "What?"

"Didn't you see it?!"

"There is only glass behind me, and I only see my shadow in the glass."

"But I didn't see your shadow, but...he, he..."

The moment Mo Yuhan was about to scream, the man floated out of the mirror, turned into a gust of dark wind, and entered Mo Yuhan's body.

Mo Yuhan swallowed the cloudy wind, as if choking on him, unable to speak.

"Ah... cough, cough..."

"What's wrong with you? Are you choking?"

"I-I don't know either..."

"You're so weird today."

Act Three

In the homesick villa, Mo Yuhan, who was wearing a white dress and a neat ponytail, was politely and cautiously greeting Si Jingxuan's parents.

She was visiting Sijia as a future daughter-in-law. When her parents didn't notice, Si Jingxuan whispered in her ear, "Don't worry, my parents like you very much."

At this time, the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground came from above the head, and the three of them were a little embarrassed.

Mo Yuhan asked, "Is there anyone else upstairs?"

Sifu: "Ah... this..."

Simu: "His father, I don't think you should hide it from Xiao Mo, and explain our family's situation clearly!"

Si Jingxuan: "Yes! Make it clear! I believe Xiao Mo won't dislike grandma!"

Mo Yuhan: "Grandma?"

Si Jingxuan: "Xiao Mo, it's like this, I also have a grandma, and my grandma is crazy."

Sifu immediately became angry: "How are you talking! Who are you calling crazy?"

Si Jingxuan lowered his head resentfully.

Simu took Yuhan's hand and said softly, "Xiao Mo, Xiaoxuan's grandma has always been in good health, but she suddenly lost her mind half a year ago. Hey, no matter how healthy she is, she will be a burden to the children in the future. Xiao Mo, you won't dislike him, will you?"

Si Jingxuan rushed to talk: "Xiao Mo can't!"

Mo Yuhan smiled lightly: "Uncle and aunt, don't worry, I love Jingxuan, if I decide to marry him, I will accept everything from him."

Si Jingxuan nodded in satisfaction.

Mo Yuhan: "I want to go see grandma."

"No...you don't need it." Si Jingxuan looked at his parents in embarrassment while talking, and the two old people also helped to talk.

Simu: "Xiao Mo, she is very crazy..."

"It's okay, Jingxuan, you can go with me."

Act Four

Walking to the door of grandma's room, Si Jingxuan called to stop Yuhan: "My grandma will say some strange things, and her behavior will be very scary."

"Okay, you know I'm not a timid girl, besides, you're still here."

"Okay, then let's go in."

As soon as they opened the door, Grandma Si groaned in pain.

Mo Yuhan found that the threshold was covered with a layer of red sand, and Si Jingxuan told her not to worry about it, just step over it.And just as Mo Yuhan was about to take a step, Grandma Si yelled.

"Get out! You are not allowed to come in! Get out!"

"Grandma, don't be like this, she is your future granddaughter-in-law." Jing Xuan persuaded like a child.

There was no light in the room, only a circle of white candles on the floor cast a dim candlelight.

And Grandma Si was sitting in the middle of the circle made of candles, and there were strange spells drawn on the floor in the circle.

Grandma Si had loose silver hair and looked at Mo Yuhan ferociously, as if looking at a monster. She kept saying, "Here we come! Brought by you! Brought by you..." Her expression was terrified Desperate again.

"Grandma, it's okay. She is my girlfriend, your future granddaughter-in-law! Can you come out of the candle array? Your hair is all messed up. I'll comb it for you."

Grandma Si was still trembling, but she never left the center of the circle.

She stared at Mo Yuhan and begged for mercy: "Don't come here, it's none of my business, I don't know, you were already dead at that time..."

Mo Yuhan didn't understand what Grandma Si said, and leaned towards Jingxuan in embarrassment. At this time, a gust of wind blew in from the window, blowing out several candles, and Grandma Si screamed: "Ah——the town is broken! The soul array was broken by him!"

Both Jingxuan and Yuhan walked over, trying to help her up from the ground.Grandma Si wailed even more painfully, and kept scratching Si Jingxuan who wanted to help her.

Just as Mo Yuhan was about to go over to help, suddenly a gust of wind rose from her body, and she felt that her whole body was empty, and she subconsciously froze.

At this moment, Grandma Si suddenly suffocated, her eyes widened, and her whole body tensed up, looking like a disturbed zombie. A powerful airflow rose around him.

Si Jingxuan was at a loss, and at this moment Mo Yuhan saw from the mirror beside him that the ghost figure that appeared in the glass of the restaurant was tightly choking Grandma Si's neck.

"Ah—mirror, mirror..." Yuhan screamed.

"Xiao Mo, quickly call an ambulance for me, grandma seems to be unable to breathe!"

"You still can't see? It's him! It's him!" Yuhan was so frightened that he couldn't move.

But Si Jingxuan couldn't see anything. In the chaos, Grandma Si stopped breathing.

Act Five

When Mo Yuhan woke up, he found himself lying on the hospital bed.

"You...are you awake?"

It was Jingxuan's voice, always a sunny and open-minded voice, but at this moment it was trembling visibly because of confusion and sadness.

He was sitting by his bed, but he didn't hold her hand tightly, and even kept a distance from her deliberately.

"How is your grandma?"

"She passed away."

"Ah? How?"

"The doctor said that she was overly frightened and had a heart attack."

After Si Jingxuan finished speaking, he raised his head and looked at Mo Yuhan, his eyes were a little dull, with suspicion and fear.

Mo Yuhan was so shocked that he almost cried out, "Why are you looking at me like that?"

Si Jingxuan's face twisted in pain, he hesitated to speak, and finally he only said perfunctorily: "It's nothing."

Mo Yuhan looked at Si Jingxuan who deliberately turned his face away, and suddenly understood: "You are blaming me!"

Si Jingxuan gritted his teeth, endured it for a while, and finally broke out: "Yes, I blame you! Why did you go crazy with my grandma? Why did you provoke her?"

"I'm not crazy, I really see..."

"Is there a man in the mirror?"

"Yes, a man! He followed me while we ate!"

"Stop talking! I know, you were scared by my grandma!"

"No! I actually saw that man choke..."

"Enough! The hospital said my grandma died of a heart attack!"

"Why do not you believe me?"

"What do you believe? Believe that you brought a ghost to my house and strangled my grandma?"

Mo Yuhan opened her mouth to continue arguing, but suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness. She frowned painfully, and finally chose to remain silent.

After a long time, Si Jingxuan said: "Xiao Mo, I, I miss us..."

Mo Yuhan looked at him and already had a premonition of what he was going to say.

"I don't think we're suited...to be together."

Mo Yuhan smiled bitterly: "Are you blaming me, or are you afraid of me?"

Si Jingxuan suddenly got angry: "No matter why, I don't want to see the person who killed my grandma again!"

"You..." Mo Yuhan's lips trembled with grief and anger, "You just said that your grandma died of a heart attack!"

Si Jingxuan felt a little guilty, but stubbornly lowered his head, not looking at Mo Yuhan's questioning eyes.

"That's it... is it over?"

"I'm sorry, when I see you, I think of my grandma's death."

"Okay, let's leave it at that, we met strangely, and it will end strangely." Yuhan couldn't help sobbing, "Jingxuan, do you still remember how we met?"

***

That year, Mo Yuhan was 13 years old.

She and her family went camping in the mountains in the suburbs, and when she woke up late at night, she found herself in a wasteland.

"Why... I was sleeping in a tent... Ah! I'm sleepwalking again?!"

She sobbed in panic and ran around: "Where is this? Dad! Mom! I'm so scared! Is there anyone? Is there... Ah! Wait for me!"

Mo Yuhan saw a boy with his back to her in front of him, and turned around as she shouted, his overly pale face looked even darker against the backdrop of the night, the boy's bangs blocked his eyes, revealing only his thin cheeks and Jaw, and lips as pale as the complexion.

Mo Yuhan was very scared and wanted to run away, but the boy kept his face. He turned around and walked deep into the mountains. He stopped and stopped, obviously wanting Yuhan to follow him.

Mo Yuhan followed the boy to a small valley, and the boy dodged and hid behind a rock.She walked over and saw "he" sitting there.

Mo Yuhan was like sifting through chaff: "Why, why did you bring me here?"

And the little boy looked at her in horror and replied, "Who... I didn't... I didn't! Me, my family and I came here for camping, and we were sleeping in a tent... and suddenly woke up... I don't know Where am I... I found a boy... I was brought here by him..."

This boy is ten-year-old Si Jingxuan.

***

Recalling this point, Mo Yuhan suddenly thought of something, and suddenly sat up from the bed.Jingxuan asked her what was going on, but she didn't answer, but asked Jingxuan to drive her to the valley where they first met.

02

Act [-]

In the middle of the night, the two came to that strange place again. Yuhan asked Jingxuan to dig behind the rock where they met. Jingxuan was hesitant at first, but he did it anyway.

Not long after, Yuhan saw four smoky skeletons floating in the darkness around Jingxuan. They were small, like babies. Yuhan could also hear the babies laughing and crying, and Jingxuan was still in the Digging the ground, he neither heard nor saw the ghosts.

Mo Yuhan tightly covered his mouth, so he didn't scream out.

"You, you..."

"Hahahaha..." The baby spirits let out creepy laughter, Yuhan glanced at Jingxuan who was still digging his head, and his heart beat faster.

Only she can hear these ghostly voices.

"Big brother, come and see, my sister is really here to save us!"

The phantom of the young boy also appeared, most of his face was still covered by bangs, he looked at the trembling Yuhan, his pale lips were slightly raised, he was smiling at Yuhan, although the smile was eerie and weird, but Yuhan But I feel that the meaning of this smile is gratitude.

"Ah!—" Jingxuan exclaimed suddenly, he stopped digging, and stared blankly at the big hole just dug, Yuhan approached, and in that hole, he saw the bones glowing white under the moonlight.

Act [-]

The next day, a team of policemen came to the valley to excavate the area. Jingxuan and Yuhan watched as reporters, surrounded by villagers who watched the scene.

One after another, police officers reported that the bones had been dug up.

At this time, Mo Yuhan noticed a timid woman in the crowd, who was planning to escape after seeing the situation clearly.

Mo Yuhan didn't rely on memory, but relied on an intuition, she decided that the woman was the person she met while sleepwalking when she was three years old.

"She's a murderer!" Mo Yuhan shouted to the crowd.

Act [-]

In the interrogation room of the Public Security Bureau, the policeman asked Li Xiuying, "What's your name?"

"Li Xiuying."

"Do you know why they arrested you?"

"do not know."

"Be honest and be lenient..."

"I just don't know, my man and I stopped doing that thing a long time ago!"

"What's the matter?"

"Baby trafficking! I wasn't caught when I did it. I haven't done it for five or six years, but now you are caught."

Li Xiuying worked as a cleaner in the hospital 20 years ago. Her husband Liu Qiang asked Li Xiuying to steal the baby and sell it to him.

The policeman asked bitterly, "Why did you kill the baby?"

"I didn't kill him!"

"What happened to those baby corpses?"

"Those babies died accidentally during transport!"

"Accident?"

"Yeah! My man and I have stolen too many babies, and we can't take care of them for a while..."

"brute!"

Li Xiuying was shocked for a while.

"But those corpses, why are some of them obviously destroyed?"

"Ah, yes, yes..."

"Say it!"

"It's a pity that those babies died, so we took off their parts and sold them."

"Beast! Desperate!"

Li Xiuying covered her face with her handcuffed hands and huddled in the chair.

"How many babies have you killed?"

Li Xiuying hurriedly argued: "Comrade policeman, we really didn't kill him, it was really an accidental death!"

"Tell me! How many?"

"Well... five, five."

The police took out a photo of Grandma Si and asked Li Xiuying to identify him: "Is there anyone who bought babies or baby organs from you?"

Li Xiuying: "You're making things difficult for me. There are so many buyers, and it's been so many years. I can't remember."

Act [-]

At Mo Yuhan's house, Si Jingxuan sat on the sofa with her, Si Jingxuan looked at Yuhan with reluctance, he still refused to believe what Yuhan said.

"You mean, the boy who led us to the valley is Xiaoxian Mai?"

Mo Yuhan nodded.

"So, what about the boy who begged you to save him in the dream?"

"I-I don't know..."

"Even if Xiaoxian Mai came to you and begged you to find his body and bury it, what about me?"

Mo Yuhan smiled wryly: "Yeah, why... when he was 13 years old, did he want me to meet you?"

"Also, what about my grandma? Why did he kill my grandma?"

"I-I don't know..."

"If you can't explain it clearly, then can we think that everything is a coincidence, and... and your imagination."

"You say I'm mentally ill?!"

"It's not that serious, maybe it's a mild paranoia."

"You, why don't you believe..."

Si Jingxuan sighed loudly, and hung his head wearily.

Mo Yuhan didn't say any more, looking at Jing Xuan who was haggarded by the whole incident, she was very heartbroken, she reached out her hand to touch Jing Xuan's cheek, but Jing Xuan avoided it.

There's really no way they'll ever be together again.

Both of them were tacitly silent, trying to delay the time for a formal farewell.But Yuhan glanced casually, and saw the ghost figure appeared in the mirror behind Si Jingxuan again.

"Ah—" Yuhan turned pale with fright, "You, why don't you leave?"

"Who are you talking to?" Si Jingxuan followed Mo Yuhan's gaze and looked back. At this moment, he suddenly had a headache, "Ah, my head..."

The ghost of Xiaoxian Mai floated out of the mirror and floated around Si Jingxuan. Jingxuan's groans became more and more miserable. Mo Yuhan stood up and drove Xiaoxian Mai beside Jingxuan, which only she could see.

"Go away! I've already buried you, and I've brought the person who killed you to justice, what else do you want?"

Yuhan picked up the lamp on the table and threw it at Xiaoxian Mai.The ghost disappeared, and Si Jingxuan collapsed on the sofa as if he had collapsed, still groaning in pain.

"Jingxuan, are you alright?"

"My eyes... hurt..."

Yuhan helped Jingxuan up, and when she saw Jingxuan's face, she couldn't help screaming again.

"what--"

"What's wrong... What's wrong with me..."

Si Jingxuan's eyes were filled with blood, and two lines of blood and tears flowed out.

Yuhan was very angry. Although she could no longer see Xiaoxian Mai's ghost, she still stood up and shouted into the air: "Why did you hurt him? Why are you still pestering me?"

Act ten

In the middle of the night, Yuhan came to the col alone, and grabbed a handful of soil at the place where the bones were dug out.

"Xiao Xianmai, come with me."

Act No.11

In the dark living room, there are two tables facing each other, and two mirrors are placed opposite to each other on these two tables, and a handful of soil for burying the bones is placed in front of the mirrors.

Mo Yuhan knelt on the ground between the two tables, lit two white candles, and she placed the two candles on the mound in front of the mirror.

This is the summoning array she found in the book.

She looked into one of the mirrors, and when the clock hit twelve midnight, she began to say the spiritual spell.

"Then Monet Potter..."

A dark wind blew in the room, and four skeleton-shaped baby spirits fluttered above Yuhan's head, laughing and crying continuously.

Yingling 1: "Haha, my sister asked us to come and play!"

Infant Spirit 2: "Woooooo...I want to find my mother...my sister will be my mother..."

Yingling 3: "Sister, brother Xianmai likes you."

Yingling 4: "Why isn't brother Xian Mai coming out yet?"

Yes, why hasn't he come yet?

With a trembling voice, Mo Yuhan began to read the nursery rhyme: "The moon bends, the moon bends, the moon bends and shines on the window; there is a big lazy cat by the window, the baby sees it and laughs haha."

At this time, a young boy's voice came from behind her: "It's not a big 'lazy' cat, it's a big 'flower' cat!"

Hearing this eerie, slender and childish voice, Mo Yuhan's whole body twitched a few times. She stared at the mirror in front of her with trepidation. behind the mirror.

In the mirror that should have reflected her back, a pale face with bangs covering her eyes appeared.

Xiaoxian Mai raised the corner of her pale mouth and smiled sinisterly: "Sister, I miss you so much."

Mo Yuhan trembled again, she dared to talk to Xiaoxian Mai: "You, are you really Xiaoxian Mai?"

"Well, you don't recognize me?"

"When I met you, you were just a baby."

"Yeah, I died unjustly. I was too resentful to reincarnate, so I grew up at the junction of yin and yang."

"I'm sorry... I... I was too young... I couldn't save you."

"Hey, it's all fate." With a resentful sigh, Yuhan felt a gust of wind blowing towards her back, bringing a bone-chilling cold.

"Do you know, when I saw Si Jingxuan dug up my bones, I was so sad, sister, you know, I was so sad!" Xiaoxian Mai suddenly became anxious, feeling that she was about to lose control.

"I know, I know! I understand!" Mo Yuhan hurriedly comforted him like a child.

When Xiaoxian Mai calmed down a little, he continued: "I saw my own bones, and I wanted to try to change what happened, so I entrusted a dream to you, who was three years old, in that night. Saying 'Sister, save me! Sister, save me!'”

"Ah? You...you mean, the night Jingxuan and I dug up your bones, your soul traveled through time and space?"

"I, who grew up at the junction of Yin and Yang, can do it."

Mo Yuhan was terrified. She finally understood why she heard a young man's cry for help that night when she was sleepwalking when she was three years old.

"Oh, I entrusted you with a dream, but I couldn't save myself. I did everything I could, but... sister, this is fate, fate! Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo Make a horrible cry.

When Xiao Xianmai's crying faded, Mo Yuhan asked tremblingly, "Since it's predestined, that means you didn't blame me?"

Xiaoxian Mai let out a sobbing "hmm".

"Then why are you still pestering me?!"

When Xiaoxian Mai heard this, she cried even more sadly, two tears of blood flowed from her thick bangs.

"Sister, I like you. You hugged me and said you wanted to make a baby kiss with me!"

"Then, I was not sensible at that time!"

"If I am still alive, I must be better than Si Jingxuan, and I will marry my sister!"

"So you are jealous of Jingxuan, so you want to hurt him?!"

Being asked such a question, Xiaoxian Mai stopped crying and turned into an angry look. He pursed his lips, paused for a few seconds, and said sharply: "I just take back my own things!"

Mo Yuhan was puzzled, so he wanted to ask. At this time, Xiaoxian Mai showed a sinister smile again. The dark wind in the room was suddenly strong, and the candle was blown out. With the baby crying louder and louder, Yuhan couldn't help covering his ears.

This commotion lasted for a few minutes, and when the wind dissipated, Yu Han seemed to have been drained of all his strength, and sat slumped on the ground.

But she suddenly understood something, and she yelled into the air in horror: "Xiao Xianmai! Let him go! He doesn't know anything!"

Act No.12

A gust of wind blew into Si Jingxuan's bedroom, and he shivered while sleeping soundly, and suddenly woke up.

"Why is it so cold? Well... go pee."

Walking sleepily to the bathroom, when he walked past a mirror, he stopped suddenly.

He stared, pupils turning red.

"My, my eyes..."

Trembling, Jing Xuan walked back to the mirror, and screamed when he saw himself in the mirror.

"Why...it hurts...my eyes..."

His eyes protruded, and blood and tears continued to flow from them.He felt that there were two powerful forces inside the eyeballs impacting outwards, which made him feel miserable.

Suddenly, his eyeballs burst like an over-inflated balloon, and two injections of blood spewed out. Si Jingxuan let out a heart-piercing scream, covered his eyes, fell to the ground and rolled.

But in the mirror, the image of Si Jingxuan did not disappear, but gradually transformed into the evil ghost Xiaoxian Mai. Xiaoxian Mai in the mirror slightly raised the corners of his mouth, showing a sinister smile.

A gust of wind blew the bangs, revealing two black holes, from which blood gushed out continuously.

Act No.13

20 years ago.

"My grandson has a congenital eye disease and needs a cornea replacement."

"As long as you are willing to pay, let me take care of it."
