Almond Hospital Ghost | The Last Exorcist (Part 1)

On a dark, rainy night, paint peels from the walls of the abandoned Almond Hospital. The corridor lights flicker, and the air is thick with the smell of mold, mixed with a faint, almost imperceptible scent of rust. Water drips from the corners, making it hard to tell if it's seepage or blood. The Last Exorcist, Ah Xuan, the final descendant of the Taoist sect, is only half-skilled. His entire set of exorcist tools are bought from Taobao or rented for Halloween: a plastic peach wood sword, printed talismans from a home printer, a pet training bell hanging from his waist, and his Taoist robe has frayed cuffs that he might trip over if not careful. His yellow cloth bag is a mess, stuffed with power banks, mints, wet wipes, and a pile of receipts. Even the back of his protective amulet reads 'Buy 2 Get 1 Free'. The client nervously explains that a white-clothed female ghost haunts the hospital's third-floor ward every night. Her long hair hangs down to her waist, and her mournful cries seep through the walls. Several ghost hunters who entered have fled in terror, scrambling out of the hospital. Ah Xuan calculates the commission fee and reluctantly accepts the job. Entering the hospital, a cold, damp wind seeps into his collar. In the distance, a ward door creaks open slowly, the rusty hinges groaning for a long time. A cloud of cold mist seeps from the gap. A white figure hovers in mid-air, her long hair clinging to her cheeks, strands dripping liquid that forms dark brown stains on the floor. Her sorrowful cries echo through the corridor. "Woooo... So cold..." Ah Xuan takes a deep breath, raises his plastic peach wood sword, and strikes a solemn pose, shouting, "Evil spirit! Cease your haunting! The Last Exorcist is here!" 【Inner monologue: Oh my god, this scene is terrifying. I should have taken more money for this commission. Can I claim taxi fare later?】 He raises his hand to place a talisman, but a cold wind blows.

The printed talisman was stuck directly onto his face. As he frantically tried to pull it off, the pet's copper bell from his waist rolled to the white shadow's feet. The female ghost slowly floated closer, her feet off the ground, an icy chill washing over him. Ah Xuan leaned against the wall, his legs trembling uncontrollably. He quickly took out his phone to search for incantations he'd copied online. Before he could even recite a few lines, a Taobao ad for a "Premium Peachwood Sword" popped up. Shaking, he frantically closed the pop-up window: "Supreme Lord Lao… uh, Hasten like the… that decree!" The female ghost stopped and tilted her head slightly. "Did you come to catch me?" Her voice was eerie and desolate. "That's right! I'm here to help you reincarnate today!" Ah Xuan forced a dignified tone, his plastic sword trembling in his hand. The female ghost slowly raised her hand and swept aside the long hair covering her face. Her face was a ghastly white, her eye sockets empty, devoid of eyeballs. Ah Xuan gasped, nearly fainting on the spot, screaming internally: "It's over, I've encountered a real ghost this time!" The female ghost sighed in a low voice, "I've been trapped here for many years. I died in this very hospital room years ago and haven't been able to leave…" Ah Xuan gritted his teeth, pulled out another talisman, and prepared to rush forward.

The female ghost suddenly frowned, reached into her hollow eye sockets, and pulled out two plastic eyeballs, placing them in her palm. "Hold on, the prop is crooked." Ah Xuan froze on the spot. The female ghost casually wiped off the thick white makeup from her face. It turned out she was a part-time actress. The white robe she was wearing was a Halloween costume bought online, and the dripping water on her hair was mineral water pre-mixed with food coloring. Her white robe pockets were bulging with mosquito repellent and gum. "I'm an actress hired by the Ghost Hunting Team. I get three thousand a night to dress up as a ghost and scare tourists. The crying sound just now was a sound effect from my phone. My eyes got really sore from wearing the fake eyeballs for too long, and there are so many mosquitoes in this hospital, my calves got bitten all over. Yesterday, the boss complained that my crying wasn't pathetic enough and made me re-record it three times." Ah Xuan let out a huge sigh of relief and slumped to the ground, shouting angrily: "You wasted half my life! It was all an act!" Footsteps echoed from the stairs, and the Ghost Hunting Team rushed out with their cameras. Their first words weren't to check on the situation, but they urgently stared at their phone screens, exclaiming: "Did we capture that footage? How many viewers did we get?" They were preparing to livestream this 'ghost-catching' highlight. The leader walked up and whispered to the actress: "Good job. This part is almost done. Soon we'll play the sound effect for the second ghost to startle the exorcist, and the traffic will double." Upon hearing this, Ah Xuan let down all his guard and even leaned in to chat: "Oh? There's a second prop ghost? You should have said so earlier. I could have played along. Want to add a scene where I throw talismans?" The actress blinked awkwardly, offering no response.
