I'm an antique shop owner, so it's reasonable for me to know some magic

Chapter 187: Ghosts are scary, and human hearts are hard to predict
After going out, Anna immediately explained what she had encountered to the young man opposite.

Then, she repeated what the priest had told her about the origin of the ghost.

During the explanation, Anna kept observing the other person's expression.

She was somewhat curious about the young man's expression after hearing such detailed information about the evil spirit's mischief.

He was extremely confident, showing contempt for the so-called evil spirit, or he realized that this was no joke and looked serious.

What Anna didn't expect was that the young man's expression didn't change from beginning to end.

So calm as if listening to trivial neighborhood gossip.

"Mr. Sufan?"

she asked tentatively.

"Did you hear everything I just said?"

Of course I listened.

Su Fan not only listened to it, but also recalled what the Winchester brothers had said to him before.

[During our past exorcism trips, evil spirits with the same name occasionally appeared in different places. But the characteristics were different each time.]

[For example, the popular Bloody Mary, there are more than 50 versions that can be searched online. ]

[This greatly increases the difficulty of our actions. As you know, only by finding the corresponding version of the legend and burning the corpse can we eliminate the evil spirit.]

The Winchester brothers had dealt with the evil spirit of the Weeping Woman in White before.

Both were betrayed by their husbands and both drowned their two children.

The one that the Wen family duo encountered would pretend to hitchhike on the highway at night to seduce male drivers, and then brutally kill them after the other party took the bait.

But the target of the one Anna encountered was the child of a single mother.

Both Patricia and Anna raised their children alone, coincidentally two of them.

This should be the killing rule of Urona.

Judging from Anna's description, the person who appeared this time was much more troublesome than the one they encountered on the highway.

Moreover, there were two details that made Su Fan somewhat concerned.

Father Andrew said that Urona was cursed and that was why she was wandering around the world.

Cursed by whom?

Also, why did Urona choose Anna's child?
Seeing that Su Fan didn't speak for a long time, Anna felt a little uneasy and couldn't help but ask.

"Can it be exorcised?"

"no problem."

Su Fan nodded.

"Take me to your house first, and I'll take a closer look at the situation."

"It's not far ahead. It will be there in five minutes."

Anna and Su Fan walked for a while before they arrived at an ordinary house.

Su Fan's eyes flashed, and he immediately saw the gloomy aura shrouding the house.

I followed the other person into the house, but it was empty.

"April, Chris."

Following Anna's call, footsteps were heard from the right.

Soon the two children ran out.

As the two men approached their mother, they also cast curious glances at Su Fan.

"Mom, this uncle is..."

"It's brother..."

Anna patiently corrected the two children.

"Brother is a guest brought by mom, go and say hello to him."

The two of them immediately did as they were told.

The two children seem to be very obedient and not the kind of naughty kids who yell and scream.

The youngest daughter April took a piece of candy out of her pocket and handed it to Su Fan.

When Su Fan took the candy, he caught a glimpse of the burn on the girl's wrist and narrowed his eyes slightly.

After sending the two children back to their rooms, Su Fan finally spoke.

He looked at Anna and asked, "Before the strange phenomenon appeared, didn't you feel that something was wrong?"

"Something is wrong..."

Su Fan brought Anna to the front yard and pointed at the wilted plants on the ground and in the flower bed.

"The temperature is not too low now, but the plants in your yard are withering much more severely than those in the surrounding homes."

"Didn't you notice anything at all?"

"This……"

When Su Fan asked this, Anna looked unnatural.

"Working in the community is not easy in general, and I didn't have the time to pay attention to these things... It was indeed my fault that I didn't discover this sign sooner."

"There's another one that's more obvious."

Su Fan did not give the other party any way out and continued to speak.

"You are wearing much thicker clothes than a normal person. I guess it's because you feel cold."

"You've lived here with your children for a long time, don't you know the climate of your city?"

After hearing Su Fan's words, Anna finally noticed the sun in the sky.

"Places haunted by ghosts emit a special smell. This smell invades the human body and makes people feel cold, and their physical fitness will gradually decline."

"Lack of energy, headache, fever, general weakness, decreased appetite..."

As Su Fan spoke one sentence after another, Anna's face gradually became panic-stricken.

"Will the breath have any effect on the child?"

“It affects children more than adults.”

Su Fan's answer made Anna's heart skip a beat, and the first thought that came to her mind was to move.

But Su Fan on the opposite side quickly saw through her thoughts.

"There's no point in moving. It's you who attracted Urona, not the house."

"She will follow you anywhere you go according to the curse she left behind. There is no other way except to exorcise her."

curse?

Anna immediately remembered the burns on her and her children's wrists.

"Isn't this just an ordinary burn?!"

scald?

Su Fan twitched the corner of his mouth.

The evil spirit is irrational, but that doesn't mean she is mentally ill.

With only their killing instinct left, everything they did was to kill the target.

This thing is neither a burn nor ordinary.

The curse will accelerate the erosion of people's sanity, exacerbating their negative emotions in certain areas, and eventually causing them to fall into a state of madness.

The negative emotion that Chris and his sister have is obvious, which is fear.

But Anna can't see it yet...

"Can it be lifted?"

"Yes, but it's useless to remove it. She can just print it again anyway, right?"

After listening to Su Fan's words, Anna finally realized her current situation.

"Then now, we should..."

"You should cook a meal for your children first to calm their emotions."

Su Fan pointed to the door of the house.

Anna then noticed that the two children, who were supposed to be playing with toys indoors, had come to the door at some point and were lying on the door frame watching the two people talking, their eyes full of anxiety and fear.

Recalling her previous excited behavior, Anna finally came to her senses and trotted forward.

Su Fan watched Anna enter the house, then turned around and left.

It is still daytime, and Urona will not suddenly appear to persecute Anna's family.

Compared to ghosts, humans are more troublesome.
