Chapter 141 Fell to Death
To better house Shangguan Yue, who had just been freed from the Gu ghost, they moved to the house next door. Qin Qinsen rearranged the talismans on the doors and windows, and without Tao Huali by his side, he moved much faster.
After he finished pasting the last talisman, Yun Yao also came out of the room.
"She's asleep. She's sweating and feeling cold. I've turned up the air conditioner. Sister Taotao is inside with her."
Yun Yao gently closed the door and said to Qin Qinsen who was standing by the window.
"How did she become Sister Taotao?" Qin Qinsen muttered softly, "She just got some poison from the Gu ghost. It's not serious. She just needs a good sleep."
Fang Nanxing screamed, "It's not serious? She's twisted like that, so weak she can't even stand up. How can this not be serious?"
"Gu ghosts eat everything, and the refining method is complex and sinister. If they feed on ghost messengers for a long time, they will become the nemesis of many ghost controllers and ghosts. They can also make their bodies poisonous, and ordinary people will die if they come into contact with them." Qin Qinsen explained in a low voice, "Luo Nanchen must have been marked by the Gu ghost recently, and the Gu ghost provides him with protection."
"That's not right. If he carries the mark of a Gu ghost, then whoever he touches should die, right? Then why is Brother Han okay?" Fang Nanxing was puzzled.
As a driver, Han Guangxiu follows Luo Nanchen every day, so it is inevitable that there will be some physical contact, but he is fine and nothing happened.
Yun Yao had some ideas, "Because it's just a mark, not the Gu ghost itself."
Glancing at Yun Yao with admiration, Qin Qinsen continued, "That's right, it's the Gu ghost itself that's so powerful. The mark it made on Luo Nanchen was for protection. Anyone who has ill will or is aggressive towards Luo Nanchen will be targeted by the Gu ghost."
Therefore, Shangguan Yue's location was exposed, and the bait Tao Huali placed in his talisman accelerated the arrival of ghosts and evil spirits.
"So what do we do next?"
Fang Nanxing was a little worried. He heard that a ghost had come to their door just now. Not only did they not move out, but they even stayed next door. Wasn't it a bit too disrespectful of Luo Nanchen and the ghost?
"Eat and drink, go to bed early, we're here for you."
Glancing at Teng Su who had been waiting at the door for a long time, Qin Qinsen smiled and said, "Wear the talismans I gave you. Don't open the doors or windows unless I come. Besides, Tao Huali is not there to eat for nothing. If there is really something, let her delay until I arrive."
Having said that, before leaving, Qin Qinsen took out two palm-sized paper figures and threw them to the door.
Muttering a few words, the little paper figures instantly stretched their bodies, stood with their hands on their hips, one on the left and one on the right, just like two knife-wielding guards.
After instructing the people in the house not to open the doors or windows, Qin Qinsen and Teng Su left.
The Teng family villa was not far ahead. The two of them took a leisurely walk, without any tension of catching ghosts or removing the remaining poison from the evil spirits, nor any sense of urgency of facing the enemy.
"The Luo family won't last long."
Teng Su spoke first.
He couldn't tell fortunes or catch ghosts, but he knew the ways of the business world. This afternoon's news report was just the tip of the iceberg. Teng had been preparing for this day for a long time.
"Not only has the situation been going downhill, but it has also refused to take the right path. Naturally, there is no way to turn things around." Qin Qinsen lagged behind Teng Su by two steps. His pace was slow, and his eyelids were drooping.
"Tired?"
Giving the person who was talking nonsense a look, Qin Qinsen said listlessly, "My luggage is left at Siyun Hall. Can you help me get it back?"
Not only did Teng Su not agree, he even paused for two steps, walked side by side with him, and held his hand.
"Hey." He tried to shake off Teng Su's hand, but it only made him hold it tighter.
"Where do you want to go?"
Qin Qinsen was helpless. "I'm not going anywhere. I really forgot something in Siyun Hall. There are magic tools in it. You..."
"You want to go to the Luo family."
Teng Su's face was full of certainty, "Do you know where the Luo family is? I'll take you there."
"If you can fight, then take me with you and stop making trouble." Qin Qinsen wanted to say something when he saw Teng Su answer the phone.
In just two sentences, Teng Su's expression became extremely strange.
"What's wrong?" Qin Qinsen stopped and was very confused when he saw the person staring at him after hanging up the phone.
"Luo Nanchen just...died."
Qin Qinsen didn't believe it. "You must be kidding. It's just a scratch. I just used his blood as an inducement to make him unlucky. How could he die?"
Teng Su's expression was so strange that Qin Qinsen became cautious. "Is he really dead?"
Still unable to believe it, I opened my phone and saw that the headlines on all the major apps were all about the news that "President Luo has passed away."
The accompanying picture was the photo of him falling in front of the car, which made Qin Qinsen's eyes widen and he was amazed.
"No, I haven't done anything yet."
wrong.
Qin Qinsen tried hard to recall the scene he saw in the mirror - the faint silver mark on the back of Luo Nanchen's neck was obviously caused by swallowing ghosts such as ghost messengers that were related to the Xuanmen sect. Otherwise, the marks left by ordinary ghosts would be black and gray in color and hideous in shape.
But there is another possibility...
Turning to Teng Su, Qin Qinsen smiled dryly and said, "That Gu ghost might not be protecting him, but treating him as its last feast."
Considering Luo Nanchen's seemingly promiscuous behavior, and the fact that he absorbed Yin Qi through intercourse under Xiao Wang's guidance, it's likely that he was not only replenishing the so-called formation, but also retaining some Yin Qi within his body to feed the Gu ghost.
Normally, a Gu ghost is fed and refined by a sorcerer, and obeys the sorcerer's orders. In order to make the Gu ghost obedient, the sorcerer needs to constantly feed it with ghosts and spirits to strengthen and tame it.
There is one advantage of Gu ghosts: whatever you feed them will become something else.
If you feed it starving ghosts, the Gu ghost will have a huge appetite and eat everything. It is said that in ancient times, there was a Gu ghost that could swallow the heaven and earth. It was the transformation of the Gu ghost that ate the entire hungry ghost realm.
They can also eat food, rainwater, nectar, birds and beasts, and some even feed on the spirits of plants and trees. However, plant and tree spirits are hard to find, and these ghosts will eventually starve to death.
The poisonous ghost of the Luo family clearly feeds on ghost messengers like green bamboo, but now Luo Nanchen died while carrying the mark of the poisonous ghost's protection. Qin Qinsen didn't believe that he died from the fall he made.
In order to confirm his guess, Qin Qinsen ran quickly towards the Teng family villa.
"W-What happened?"
Teng An was wearing his precious dinosaur fleece pajamas and going downstairs to drink water. Just as he raised the cup, he saw Qin Qinsen stumbling in, dragging his brother with him.
"spiritualism."
Teng An was startled, stopped drinking the water, put down the cup and followed him happily.
"What spirit? Whose spirit? What happened?"
The three questions earned Teng Su's loving lecture. He skillfully rubbed his forehead which was red from a bang on his head. Teng An followed behind the two of them like a big tail, peeking in.
Qin Qinsen first went upstairs to take down the cinnabar and other things that were placed in the guest room, then tentatively pointed at the bed sheet and cut it into the appropriate size with Teng Su's agreeing expression.
Finally, I came to the open space in the backyard quietly.
