Chapter 36 Chapter 2 Losing Your Breath

Ma Bing hurried to look for his grandfather, and said in horror: "My mother... my mother..." Grandpa reached out and patted Ma Bing on the back twice, and Ma Bing came over angrily and said, "My mother has a strange disease. Go and help me." Grandpa said lightly: "If you are sick, go to the doctor. What do you want me to do? I don't know how to treat diseases." The horse soldier stomped anxiously: "My mother has a strange disease, she is not breathing!" "Not breathing? You mean she's dead?" Upon hearing this, Grandpa immediately grabbed the horse soldier by the hem of his clothes and was about to walk to the little mother-in-law's house.

Ma Bing held his grandfather and waved his hands wildly. He didn't know how to explain: "My mother...my mother...she didn't die." "Not dead? Not dead, how do you say she is not breathing? Are you kidding me?" Grandpa shook his hand unhappily, and turned to go back. "How can I explain it to you! Hey!" Ma Bing said anxiously, "She's not dead, she's just not breathing." My grandfather and I looked at the horse soldiers questioningly. Ma Bing sighed: "I don't believe it either. But my mother said that she didn't feel breathing and that she was going to die. But she waited for half an hour, but she still didn't die. She could still eat and drink tea, walk and move. It’s just that the body has no strength and the nose can’t breathe.”

Grandpa hesitated for a long time, pinching his nose, as if he was thinking about something. Ma Bing asked anxiously, "Uncle Ma, what do you think is the matter?" Grandpa walked back and forth a few steps, waved his big hand, and said, "Let's go. Let's go and have a look first." Hearing this strange incident, several people gathered around and went to the short mother-in-law's house together. A group of us came to the house of the short mother-in-law. The short mother-in-law was weakly lying on the bed, looking at us with blank eyes like a seriously ill person.Her eyes were like charcoal that was about to go out, covered with a layer of dust, and might go out at any time.A few hairs hang over the bridge of the nose and pass through the nostrils.But the hair around the nostrils did not move at all, as if the nostrils were blocked.She was literally not breathing!People who are alive have a feeling of being dead, and being dead has a sense of being alive.

Grandpa comforted the short granny, and then said, "Do as I tell you." The little granny nodded. Grandpa put a piece of paper on the table and asked her to blow on it.The short granny opened her mouth and blew, and the paper lay there quietly without moving a bit!We were dumbfounded. Grandpa helped the little granny up, pointed to the window glass and said, "You breathe into the glass." The short mother-in-law opened her mouth and approached the glass. The air outside was already relatively cold. If it was an ordinary person, if she breathed into the glass, a cloud of mist would immediately be left on the glass.The short granny opened and closed her mouth against the glass several times, but there was no mist on the glass!

"Sure enough, I'm not breathing anymore!" Grandpa shook his head and helped the short mother-in-law to lie down again. "She must have encountered a gas-eating ghost." "Air-eating ghost?" The horse soldier asked in surprise. Grandpa nodded, frowning. "What the hell is a gas eater?" I asked.I remembered the picture on TV, a hideous ghost inhaled into a person's nose while he was asleep, and the inhaled person died unconsciously. "This kind of ghost is not a ghost in human form. It is a ghost that cannot directly harm people like the Lost God. But it is different from the Lost God. It feeds on the breath of people. People who are harmed by it will not die immediately. It just feels like you can't breathe, but after a long time, people will be mentally weak, aging rapidly and dying naturally. It is still a rare and righteous ghost, and it will kill people who have done bad things." After the grandfather finished speaking, he looked at the short mother-in-law. The mother-in-law avoided Grandpa's eyes, "Before the short mother-in-law loses her breath for a long time, you and I will cure this breath-eating ghost."
