Chapter 66: Had A Nightmare Of Being Pressed Down By A Ghost?

After Second Uncle entered the room, he used the Self-Purification Technique on me. After confirming I was fine, he lay down on the bed and immediately fell asleep without even washing up. It seems Second Uncle was truly exhausted.

I was actually a bit tired too. Although I slept for a while in the car, I didn’t sleep well. No matter how I slept, it wasn’t as good as sleeping in a proper bed, so I was a bit sleepy. However, I was also conflicted: should I sleep or read Daoist books?

I haven’t read Daoist books in a long time, but I have to take care of some business tomorrow. If I don’t sleep tonight, my spirit state tomorrow might not be able to keep up. Although Second Uncle will be the one handling things, there’s still a possibility of an accident. So, after pondering for a bit, I decided to have a good night’s sleep first. I can read Daoist books later. I can’t be careless about the business tomorrow!

I first plugged my mobile phone in to charge. Then, I quietly climbed onto the bed. Second Uncle had casually lain down on the outer side of the bed, not in the inner position. So, I had to climb up from the other side, and I naturally had to be careful not to disturb Second Uncle.

Second Uncle, perhaps because he was too tired, was not awakened by me. If someone’s sleep isn’t too deep, they usually have a hazy consciousness awakened by the slightest movement.

But since Second Uncle was still softly snoring, I could confirm that he was not awakened.

Lying down on the soft bed felt really comfortable.

Tonight, I remember very clearly that before I slept, I placed the Daoist book beside my pillow. After lying down, I started thinking about matters related to the Yin Demon Path.

Before long, I started to feel drowsy. After an unknown amount of time like this, while my consciousness was still hazy, I felt something sit on me, right on my belly.

With such a significant disturbance, I would definitely wake up. But what was strange was that it felt like my consciousness woke up, but my body didn’t. I couldn’t move my body!

No matter how I struggled, no matter how hard I tried, my body simply wouldn’t move, and I couldn’t open my eyes. Yet, I was conscious. What was going on?

I felt a bit panicked inside, but I kept trying hard to get my body up.

Suddenly, the thing sitting on me moved. By touch, I could sense that it seemed to be a person sitting on me?

But this person was very light, not heavy. This wasn’t fun anymore. There’s no need to say it. Even though I couldn’t move my body or open my eyes at this moment, I could clearly figure it out with my brain: what was sitting on me was definitely not a person, but a ghost spirit!

This ghost spirit was still sitting on me. Then I felt it seemed to lean over and brought its head very close to mine. Don’t ask me how I know, its hair touched me!

This is definitely not a dream. This sensation is absolutely real.

It seemed to be observing my face. My heart skipped a beat. What was it trying to do?

But then my heart jumped again. Hair?

Could this be the female ghost from the dormitory building?

But I couldn’t open my eyes at all, so I wasn’t entirely sure about this thought.

But there’s another problem. Second Uncle was sleeping right next to me. Even if Second Uncle slept very soundly, I don’t think he wouldn’t wake up if an evil spirit approached.

Yet, I could still hear Second Uncle snoring at this moment. Second Uncle wasn’t awake and was still asleep. What was going on?

After observing me for a while while sitting on me and leaning over, the ghost spirit moved again. It raised its hand and touched my face. I felt the touch of its nails. There was a chill from these nails; I could feel it!

Was it going to make a move?

I thought to myself.

“Second Uncle! Save me! Wake up! I’m going to die!”

I was shouting desperately in my heart, trying my best to move my body, but I couldn’t.

I felt it seemed to raise its hand with a weird smile, about to strike me, when suddenly my body felt light, and I instantly sat up from the bed. I could move my body!

I immediately put my hands up to my face to shield myself. This was a natural defensive reaction.

After a while, I didn’t feel the pain of an attack. Instead, Second Uncle’s voice reached my ears.

【What’s wrong, Little Child? Why all the commotion? Did you have a nightmare?】

Second Uncle rolled over and squinted, saying this. He was clearly not fully awake. After saying a sentence, Second Uncle rolled back over and went to sleep, ignoring me.

I immediately lowered my hands from my face and looked around. I didn’t see any ghost spirit. Everything seemed as if it had never happened, as if it were just a dream.

But I can be very sure that it was definitely not a dream, because the sensation was a real sensation. A dream cannot be this real. That ghost spirit was definitely real!

If it was real, then where did this ghost spirit go all of a sudden?

Was it on me?

That’s not right. Second Uncle used the Self-Purification Technique when he entered the room. That technique lasts for a day. If it had hidden on me, it would have definitely been detected by the Self-Purification Technique.

I glanced at the water cup on the table. There was no movement. This meant the ghost spirit wasn’t on me. As for whether it was on Second Uncle, I didn’t even need to think about it; would this ghost spirit dare to defy heaven? I don’t believe it.

Then, where did this ghost spirit go?

This…

For a moment, I wasn’t sure if I was dreaming anymore.

But the sensation I felt was just too real.

I slowly climbed out of bed and picked up my mobile phone to check the time. It was almost six in the morning. I hadn’t expected it to be almost dawn.

It felt as if only about thirty minutes had passed since what happened. It’s been almost all night. Could it really have been a dream?

I sat on the stool and thought about it. It should have started around two in the morning. The whole process of this matter probably took about thirty minutes, not exceeding thirty minutes. Because I was too panicked at the time, it was difficult to estimate the specific time.

The time span is a bit too large. Only a dream could do that. Was it really just a dream?

The matters of the Yin Demon Path had indeed brought me too much pressure. Coupled with the incident in the dormitory building, any dream wouldn’t be surprising. The main thing is that I still don’t know where that female ghost went.

【Sigh~】

I sighed powerlessly. I was almost scared to death by my own dream. How pathetic. If I told Second Uncle about this, he would probably laugh himself to death.

I probably shouldn’t think that way. Second Uncle is such a serious person; he would probably comfort me. After all, the things I’ve encountered lately are becoming more and more bizarre. Now, forget about being a firm atheist; if someone told me tomorrow that the moon was brought down by ghosts, I would believe it.

【Could it really be a dream? It’s just too real.】

I said quietly.

Suddenly, I saw the cigarettes Second Uncle left on the table. Second Uncle would have one when he was stressed.

I took one out and lit it. I had never smoked before, but I knew how to inhale and wouldn’t choke. I finally understood why Second Uncle didn’t smoke at the Taoist Temple but smoked often after coming down the mountain. I took a few puffs just now and clearly felt my state stabilizing much more.

In this line of work, newcomers probably face a lot of pressure. It’s not strange that they smoke. Although it’s very harmful to the body, the emotional feedback for the spirit is also significant. It’s like a trade. No wonder so many people smoke. I instantly understood the reason behind it.
