英语灵异故事-Don't listen (切勿聆听) 03

I was a little nervous none-the-less because the fact that the horse was there every night meant that no scary specters were hanging about. (My house has a history of ghosts and I tend to ignore anything I find suspicious) I depend very heavily on animal's sixth sense because they are so much more in tune¹ than I am. In fact, I couldn't even find my cat that night either, another reason to be paranoid. But of course I ignored it not wanting to provoke² the spirits or anything.

但我还是有点紧张，因为马每天都在那，这说明周围没有吓人的幽灵在四处游荡。（我家的房子曾闹过鬼，所以每当我发现什么可疑之物时，就会刻意忽略。）我非常相信动物的第六感，因为那要比我自己的要灵敏得多。实际上当晚我怎么也找不到我的猫，这又是一个足以让我胡思乱想的理由。但我可不想把鬼魂之类的东西引出来，便故意忽视它。
