Chapter 29: Haunted Dormitory (Part 2)

May 9, 2023Ai Hrist

After Xi Haihong finished speaking, the short-haired girl widened her eyes and nodded repeatedly: “That’s true. Sister is very accurate, I saw a ghost with my own eyes! I, I told my roommates and family members at first, but they didn’t believe me.”

She spoke tremblingly in the live broadcast room about her experience.

Nine nights ago, around 1 or 2 in the morning, she vaguely heard footsteps in her sleep, but she always thought she was dreaming.

Half awake and half asleep, due to physiological reasons, she woke up in a daze and wanted to get out of bed to go to the bathroom.

“At that time, I felt…the temperature in the room was very low. Even under the quilt, it was cold, so I opened the bed curtain to see how low the air conditioner was, but as soon as the curtain was opened, I saw, I saw a person standing in the aisle of the dormitory!”

“I woke up straight away in fright.”

Recalling what happened that night, the short-haired girl still feels horrified.

“She was standing with her back to me. She was standing on the bed near the door of the dormitory. My bed was in the innermost part of the dormitory. It was dark in the room and I couldn’t see clearly. I thought she was the girl in that bed. I once……”

Xi Haihong understood: “You called her.”

“Yes.” The short-haired girl gritted her teeth, regretting it even now.

She had just woken up that night and was in a hurry to get out of bed, and she made the decision when her mind froze.

“I thought it was too weird, but I didn’t dare to get out of bed, so I said xxx, what are you doing standing there and scaring people when you’re not sleeping? But when she turned her head, I saw her, her face was covered with blood, and her red eyes were staring at me horribly!”

Speaking of which, she couldn’t help but burst into tears in front of the live broadcast camera.

“Two days ago my mother took me to a psychic and asked me to take a talisman with me, but I really can’t forget that face and eyes at night. I couldn’t help being afraid at night. I keep remembering it when I close my eye.”

[Oh my gosh, just by thinking about it, without anyone else noticing it, my soul will be scared away.]

[Exciting, this kind of supernatural event of hitting ghosts is much more interesting than fortune-telling.]

[When you saw someone standing in the dormitory in the middle of the night, you dared to yell out loud? Is this brave or cowardly… If it were me, I will curl up in bed and recite the Protection Sutra!]

On the other side of the camera, other girls gathered around to comfort the short-haired girl.

One of the long-haired girls said with a pale face: “She saw that…the one standing beside my bed.”

“We were all asleep in the middle of the night, and we were woken up by her screams. Everyone was shocked. After asking what happened, we didn’t believe it.”

Not only did they not believe it, but the other girls were also a little angry.

After all, whoever sleeps soundly in the middle of the night will feel better when woken up by the screams.

What’s more, after turning on the lights, there was nothing in the dormitory, and the temperature was not as cold as the short-haired girl said. They all thought that the short-haired girl had a nightmare, and mistakenly took the dream for reality.

However, what happened next made them realize that it was not that simple at all.

Host Liu held up the microphone and said: “Contestant No. 10 saw the supernatural event that the first person who asked for help encountered. Is it a person or a phantom that appeared strangely at night in the dormitory? Can contestant Xi Haihong answer for everyone?”

Xi Haihong showed distress, and said bluntly:

“My greatest ability is to communicate directly with the dead souls, but looking at them now, there is only the yin energy left after they hit the evil spirits around them. There is no shadow of ghosts, so I am sorry, I am not sure why the ghost appeared beside them.”

“But I can tell everyone that this ghost is very powerful, and even the residual Yin energy is also very powerful.”

Host Liu asked: “Since Contestant No. #10 can see that the first person who asked for help is physically ill and her soul is not stable, is there any way to help her?”

Xi Haihong smiled wryly and shook her head: “I can fix her soul, but I have to touch her soul face to face, not in the air.”

As she spoke, she suddenly thought of something, and said in a hesitant tone: “Maybe there is someone who can.”

Host Liu asked: “Who?”

Xi Haihong replied: “Contestant No. #7, Gu Zhisang.”

Gu Zhisang: “???”

Gu Zhisang, who was eating fish and melons, did not expect that she would be called out suddenly, and before she could react, Host Liu asked her.

“Is there a way for Sangsang?”

“…I do know a little about the method of fixing the soul.”

She said slowly: “The simplest soul-fixing technique mentioned in the metaphysical ‘medical’ school, one is to take requiem soup, and the other is to massage the soul gate acupoint to lock the soul.”

Hearing this, Xi Haihong showed a complex look of “As expected”.

A few days ago, she ran into Gu Zhisang during the ecstasy, and she has always been very concerned about this matter. She asked her acquaintances in the underworld to find out a lot about Gu Zhisang’s deeds from Peng Qiaoyuan and other ghosts.

At that time, she felt that this mysterious master who appeared suddenly was not a simple role.

Gu Zhisang searched for the dragon vein by ‘watching Qi’, and found the hidden emperor’s tomb, which even aroused the attention of Xuanmen.

Looking at her today, not only can she communicate with the underworld, she was proficient in wind and water, and she even has a good understanding of the second mysterious “medicine” school among the five schools of Taoism.

It was enough for ordinary people to boast about one thing, not to mention that Gu Zhisang was still so young. It can be said that he has just passed the double tenth, where did she cultivate to reach this far?

Xun Yiqing, who also belonged to the people of the Taoist sect, also showed surprise at this time, a little unbelievable.

But thinking of Gu Zhisang’s last time he got rid of Gu worms for himself, he swallowed back his questioning again and dryly said:

“‘Medicine’ is profound, ordinary people shouldn’t try it lightly.”

Gu Zhisang glanced at the sullen Taoist Priest from the screen, a little surprised that Xun Yiqing didn’t hate her today, she nodded in agreement and said:

“Master Xun is right. I mainly talk about acupuncture points outside the body. Ge Hong said in “Baopuzi”: People without virtue or foolish, still know that they have souls. If the souls are separated, people will be sick or die.’ To strengthen your soul and nourish your mind, you must first calm down your heart. Once your heart is calm, your soul will naturally recover.”

She raised her white wrist to demonstrate: “The first point is Shenmen point, which can be found on the inner side of the transverse carpal ligament; the second point is two inches up, and here is Neiguan point. These two points They are all important positions for stabilizing the soul and calming the nerves, if you are restless, you better massage it before going to bed, and you will slowly fall asleep.”

“In addition, the Baihui point in the center of the head and the Fengchi point in the occipital region are also good places to calm the mind and calm the soul.”

The short-haired girl on the other end of the live broadcast, and her three other roommates all leaned in front of the camera, looked at it seriously, and followed suit.

Who knows if it was a psychological effect, but after pressing it for about two minutes, the short-haired girl’s anxiety became much calmer, and her tears stopped.

Gu Zhisang looked calm and continued: “In addition, Mr. Zhang Zhongjing also said: ‘Crying makes the soul restless when the soul behaves recklessly, the person with the decline of yin energy will be insane, and the person with the decline of yang energy will become mad. In addition to calming the mind and consolidating the soul, you also need to stop the leakage of yang qi and soul. Whenever you have time, you should pick up the valley path.”

[Students of traditional Chinese medicine said that the acupoints mentioned by Gu Zhisang have a certain scientific basis and are very practical.]

[What does the anchor mean by what she said at the end? I didn’t understand it.]

[It means doing more outlining exercises…]

Gu Zhisang said: “In terms of pharmacology, you students can eat more longan, and other medicinal materials such as Fushen, Ligustrum lucidum, dragon tooth, pig iron fall, etc., which are not limited in dosage, can be prepared at the pharmacy, and a small amount of tea can be brewed. Water has the effect of calming the soul and nourishing the soul.”

After speaking, Host Liu took over the topic:

“Contestant No. #10 successfully saw what happened to the first help-seeker. Next, please Contestant No. #6, Daisy, to see for us what supernatural events happened to the second help-seeker.”

Behind the camera window of the help-seeker was a different person, a girl with a round face in the dormitory.

Compared with her last roommate, she was more lively, with a cute and fleshy face. She smiled and waved to the people in the live broadcast room to say hello:

“Hello everyone, I am the second unlucky seed in the dormitory. My favorite contestant is Sister Daisy. Because I think the black witch is very mysterious and super cool! Of course, other contestants are also very good, and I also like them.”

Daisy, with blond hair and red lips, wore an improved cheongsam with butterfly sleeves, and smiled when she heard the words:

“Thank you for your likes. Since you are my little fan, I have to take a good look at you.”

She took out a black candle from the table next to her and placed a flat mirror on the ground. Because it needed to be done, a staff member entered her lounge to help hold the lens.

Several help-seekers privately sent their recent photos to the program group in advance, and the program group printed them out.

Daisy took out a solo photo of the round-faced girl, her palms were suspended on the photo, and she raised her eyes to the camera for a while and asked:

“Can I burn this picture? I need to sense the energy in the picture, which may be a bit offensive.”
