Chapter 30 - Wardrobe

When I heard Qin Yi Heng spoke, I didn't really pay attention but I was happy when he said that it will not be difficult to handle. In this manner, the two of us returned to that house and after opening the door and preparing our sleeping bed, we sat there while eating.


After eating some food, it's already around 8 pm. Qin Yi Heng said that he is afraid that we should stay up the whole night, and told me to sleep first if I am sleepy, and to wake up on the latter part of the night. I saw that I couldn't be of much help, so I simply closed my eyes and tried to sleep.


It is no surprise that it is hard to sleep in this current situation, but knowing that Qin Yi Heng will be watching over me, I am not particularly afraid and started to really sleep. Inside my dream, I heard two people conversing, but I can't really hear what they are saying, but can only discern that there are two people speaking in that conversation. Whenever I tried to hear what they're saying, their conversations became more unclear and once I panicked, I woke up immediately. After waking up and finding out Qin Yi Heng is still beside me smoking, I was unable to discern whether that event earlier was real or merely a dream of mine, but judging from his expression, it's likely to be a dream.


After opening my eyes, I saw that it's already 4 am, and the sun will soon appear. So, I asked Qin Yi Heng whether anything happened during the night.


Qin Yi Heng shook his head and he told me that given the current situation, he could only resort to opening that wardrobe.


After I heard this I thought, that person had mysteriously led us here, he would've planned something. I'm afraid that things wouldn't end this easily. But not that nothing has happened, would that person come to help us?


During the period when I was thinking, Qin Yi Heng suddenly gave me two chicken eggs, and told me to smash each of them in each hand of mine, and he used something on the floor to sprinkle a circle and told me to stand inside the circle, and I am not go out that circle no matter what happened, if I happen to feel a spirit touch me, I should shout and use both my hands to break the eggs and that I should not the egg fall from my hands. Now, he is going to open the wardrobe.


After saying this, Qin Yi Heng walked towards the wardrobe and opened it. His actions was so sudden and I wasn't quite prepared yet, I can only call him a bastard, and stayed in the circle looking at him.


At first, he opened it very carefully and peeked into it, and after taking a deep breath, he opened the wardrobe wide open.


In the meantime, I wasn't able to open my eyes as I was afraid that there might be a corpse or something like that inside it. But, after opening the wardrobe, we were both surprised because nothing actually happened.


Qin Yi Heng turned on the flashlight towards the wardrobe and inspected it. When I looked at it, it turns out to be a fur coat but we don't know whether the fur coat is that so-called fox fur coat. This turn of events can make people very nervous and Qin Yi Heng didn't dare to touch the fur coat for a while, but he used the flashlight to see whether there is anything else inside the wardrobe and after seeing that there is nothing else except this fur coat, he then courageously attempted to touch the fur coat and had wanted to take it out.


In this short period of time, there is a sudden movement from inside the wardrobe, like a human voice and the voice is very low, however, as there are no other voices in the house we can clearly hear it. After hearing the voice, I begin to panic; this voice is the one that I heard inside my dream! Turns out I wasn't dreaming? So the story that the fur coat can speak is real?


Qin Yi Heng also heard this sound, so he retreated back a few steps. He ducked his head as if to wait for the spirit inside to appear, yet no sound was heard anymore.


I informed Qin Yi Heng immediately, this sound is what I heard when I was asleep, but at that time I heard two people speaking, but I wasn't able to hear it clearly! I am very nervous, and didn't know how to convey this fact clearly. After hearing my words, Qin Yi Heng immediately shouted, damn, you can hear two people talking? So more than one spirit is locked inside?


After hearing him shout, I become very afraid, and cannot even run and stay still, even though my heart is very frightened, I can still remember that I am not allowed to let the chicken eggs fall down.


When I was hesitating, Qin Yi Heng has retreated to my side and told me, this place is very dangerous and we should go out. After he said that, the two of us didn't have any time to pack our belongings, but we can only run hurriedly towards the entrance. The house's power system has been turned off so without any kind of lightning, and because we were in a panic, the flashlights in our hands are not much help. We went out from that bedroom, and we rushed without looking back. When I exited the house, Qin Yi Heng didn't come out with me. When I was in the entrance, I turned my head and found out he is not there, I am so worried that I immediately shouted his name twice, but there was no reply. I thought, we are screwed; Qin Yi Heng must have been attacked while he was inside.


Right now I am in a dilemma, no matter what spirit is inside the house, I cannot run away to just save myself. I also peered into the bedroom again, and I saw that Qin Yi Heng's flashlight is still turned on, but from the light's direction, it appears that his flashlight has fallen to the floor. This is not a good sign because Qin Yi Heng wouldn't have thrown his flashlight for any reason, even though the bedroom is not big, he is still holding it and wouldn't let go of it. When I thought about it this way, I grew even more terrified. My legs became weak, and I wanted to return home immediately. After thinking about it, regardless its distance, I should check the room out. After all, Qin Yi Heng has said that my lifeforce is strong.


Even though making the decision is easy, but my heart is very reluctant to return to that room. I soon stopped after walking for a while, and tried to step as lightly as possible, and after a few steps, I finally reached that bedroom.


When I entered the room, I saw Qin Yi Heng lying on the floor, and he looked unconscious. I immediately put the chicken eggs on my hand into my pocket, and I slapped his face to wake him up, but he didn't show any response. I also didn't dare to delay anything, so I took his flashlight and carried him outside. Qin Yi Heng didn't look heavy, but I never thought he would be so hard to carry. After opening the door, I laid Qin Yi Heng down and I started to see his condition.


I used the flashlight to properly examine him and I used my finger to check whether he is breathing, and I let out a sigh of relief when I found out that he is still breathing. Under the flashlight, I can see that there is a big abscess on his head that has turned purple.


I was very worried, how did he get this wound in his head? Could it be that after I went out of the house, a spirit in the house has attacked him? Thinking about it this way, the time we took to escape is quite different, but I was unable to hear any sounds of someone hitting him from the behind. But, when I went inside, no one else has went out, and all the windows in the house has been locked shut and there is only one floor, so there is no possibility of someone else escaping from the house.


However, this is not the time to be worried about those things, I tried to give artificial respiration to Qin Yi Heng several times, and wanted to see if it will help him regain his consciousness. While this might seem as if I am taking my revenge to him, in actually I did it simply because I had no other options. After receiving the artificial respiration, Qin Yi Heng woke up for a while and he opened his eyes to look at me but didn't say anything.


I assume that he must have had a concussion, and if the concussion isn't bad it would probably only take two days to recover, but if it is serious, it might cause internal damage, and might endanger his life. So, I told him not to speak and took my phone to call an ambulance. However, Qin Yi Heng unexpectedly became energetic when he saw me took my phone and tried to signal something my pointing my phone, but before saying anything, he fainted again.


The situation right now is very laughable, because to tell the truth, it is more likely for me to be injured instead of him. Fortunately, this residence is not remote, and after dialing 120, an ambulance soon arrived to take us. I brought Qin Yi Heng to the hospital. After waiting for a period of time, the doctor held the X-Ray results and told me that Qin Yi Heng only had a minor condition, and the concussion didn't affect his brain, and it was only a scrape on the skin, but he will possibly vomit. However, the doctors are unsure why he wouldn't regain his consciousness.


This time I clenched my eyes, and carefully think about it for a while, if a normal doctor can't diagnose his illness, is it because he's not able to detect it? After going through so much together, I can already understand his thought processes. However, I was unable to understand why he reacted when I used my phone to call.


I smoked a lot of cigarettes in front of the hospital room, and I seem to understand it a little. A relevant thing that might be related is the text message sent to me back in the train, could it be that was what he was trying to point to me? Did he intend to tell me to find Yuan Zhen or to be more careful when it comes to Yuan Zhen?


My impression of Yuan Zhen is not bad, and even though he looked a bit like a profiteer, but after going through several transactions, there seemed to be nothing wrong with him. To put it simply, I don't really believe what is inferred in that text message, but after Qin Yi Heng pointed that text message out I begin to have my doubts. But, I am currently in a foreign place and have no friends to contact at the moment, it might be a good idea to contact Yuan Zhen. If he happens to be near the vicinity, he would surely help us out.


After thinking about it for a while, I thought that I shouldn't leave Qin Yi Heng in this condition and that I needed to do something. At last, I gave Yuan Zhen a call. This call is more like a gamble, but it's not like I have any other choice.


I then explained our situation to Yuan Zhen. Of course, I did not mention specific matters, but only told him that Qin Yi Heng saw something supernatural when we were surveying a house, and has lost his consciousness and I asked Yuan Zhen whether he knows anything that might help cure Qin Yi Heng or happen to know someone that can help us. Yuan Zhen later told me that he is currently in a city nearby, and will come to our place in a day. He sounded friendly and didn't sound suspicious at all, so I was quite comforted, because at least there's someone to help me think a way.


The next morning, Yuan Zhen had come to the hotel to find me and I was surprised that he arrived so quickly. After asking him, I then learn that he was surveying a house in the city nearby as there was a problem in that house, he then had come there to survey the house and once he's done, he then received my call, so he come to our place right away.


I brought Yuan Zhen to the hospital to look at Qin Yi Heng's condition. After inspecting Qin Yi Heng, and he saw that his face is suspicious and he later told me, right now he can't assess what has happened to Qin Yi Heng, however, he said that we should check Qin Yi Heng out of the hospital as the yin energy in the hospital is too strong, and it would be dangerous if he is possessed by a demon there.


I agreed with him, and we both checked Qin Yi Heng out of the hospital and let him rest in a hotel room. After discussing the situation with Yuan Zhen, I waited for him to explain me the particulars regarding the house. However, he had heard nothing about the house and had advised us not to return to that house. We should try looking for other solutions first and returning to that house should be our last resort.


Three days had passed but the two of us were unable to do anything. At last, Yuan Zhen told me that he had heard of a way, Qin Yi Heng is likely to have been suffused by a lot of yin energy, and in order to disperse this energy, we need to find the red lamp lighted during a wedding and with some sunflower leaves. This method is just hearsay but at least it sounds worth trying. So, I made a special trip to check people who was about to get married. Most of the weddings nowadays are conducted in western style, so the red candles are not easy to find. Finally, I finally found a family and gave someone a red envelope of 500 yuan to get the candle. As for sunflower leaves, it wasn't as hard to obtain, but we were able to get it.


Without further ado, I lit a red candle at night, and then roasted the sunflower leaves one by one. The leaves contain a lot of moisture so it is very hard to burn. When the leaf has been burned, the candle has burned a lot, but there is no smell in the house.


I was a little disappointed but I still refuse to give up. I burn all the leaves but Qin Yi Heng still refuse to wake up. Both Yuan Zhen and I are disappointed, it seemed that the only option is to ask wise person to see this. But, Yuan Zhen and I did not know anyone, so this option is also out of question.


Seeing that Qin Yi Heng wouldn't wake up, Yuan Zhen shook his head and went back to the room to sleep first, and said that we should discuss again tomorrow morning. For convenience, I had booked a three person suite with two beds outside and one bed inside. Yuan Zhen slept on that one bed. When Yuan Zhen went inside his room, I checked on Qin Yi Heng who is still asleep. Unexpectedly, as soon as I was walking to my bed, he suddenly reached out and grabbed my arm to surprise me. He gestured for me to keep quiet and pointed to the room that Yuan Zhen was staying in.
