Chapter 31: Sideline Schemer
Qing Yanrou took the ghost tears. She only knew about ghost tears from the description of her ancestor. This was the first time she saw a real ghost tear, so she couldn't help but be curious.
However, the most important thing at the moment was to resolve Wen Yu's issue. He put away the Ghost Tears and motioned for her to continue.
"Not long after, the day of my delivery arrived. My personal doctor was delivering the baby. At the critical moment, that bastard suddenly rushed into the room with the old Taoist priest and drove the personal doctor away despite my pleas."
At this point, she paused with hatred, her breath becoming a little disordered. She took a deep breath to calm herself and continued:
"Then, he came over and forcibly stuffed the baby, whose head had already emerged, back into my stomach! In the end, I died of pain, and my child was suffocated to death. That was his own flesh and blood! He just forced it back into my stomach like that and suffocated it to death!"
After saying this, the Yin energy in Wen Yu was obviously showing signs of becoming violent. Qing Yanrou walked up to her, reached out and touched her brow to help her calm down.
"When I regained consciousness, I was already trapped inside that token. I was tortured daily, and gradually lost my composure. Later, the old Taoist priest used my child to force me to kill."
After hearing what Wen Yu said, Qing Yanrou frowned and asked in a cold tone, "What's his name?"
"Li Zhibin."
She gritted her teeth when she said the name, and she wished she could eat him alive right now.
But perhaps the man was feeling guilty, so he set up all kinds of evil-repelling measures in the place where he lived, fearing that she would come back one day and drag him to hell with her.
"I understand. You can go down with peace of mind."
Wen Yu held the child and bowed deeply to her again, then turned and entered the ghost gate.
No one spoke for a long time. Seeing that she was in a bad mood, Chu Tingbai walked to her and wanted to reach out and pat her, but finally put his hand down and stayed with her silently.
The other three were stunned. Bai Yi had not expected that she could open such a big ghost door so easily!
You know, it takes a lot of energy and effort for his master to open the Ghost Gate, and he can only open one and a half meters high at most. This is enough for him to show off. If his master knew that Qing Yanrou could open such a large Ghost Gate so easily, what a blow he would be!
But there were so many things that Lin Yaoyao and Tang Lin didn’t expect!
First of all, they didn't even notice that there was a ghost child, and they were just about to use magic weapons to destroy the female ghost. Secondly, they didn't expect that the little girl they looked down upon at the beginning was so powerful, more powerful than anyone they had ever seen.
Both of them felt a little awkward, but in the end, it was Lin Yaoyao who took the initiative to speak, "Then let's take this old Taoist priest back first."
As she said this, she walked over and kicked the person lying motionless on the ground. As she moved, the old Taoist priest became stiff and motionless.
She frowned and half-knelt down, turned the old Taoist priest over with her hand, and found that he had his eyes closed. She thought something was wrong and reached out to feel his breath, and sure enough, he was dead.
"Come and take a look."
Everyone went over after hearing this. Qing Yanrou squatted down to check and her demeanor dropped even lower. She said expressionlessly, "The soul escaped."
The other three people asked in unison, puzzled: "Soul escape?"
"I've seen this kind of situation in my sect's ancient texts. This person separated his soul beforehand and placed it in a place he considered safe. When his life felt threatened, he would leave his body and reunite with the other half of his soul."
Qing Yanrou was very confused just now. It stands to reason that if someone could create that dream on such a grand scale, his strength must not be underestimated.
So she had been on guard against him having other tricks up his sleeve, but she never expected that his soul was incomplete, and he knew he couldn't beat her, so he finally took this risky move.
There is no way he could do this alone. His strength is not enough to separate his soul, which means there is someone behind him. Qing Yanrou looked at Chu Tingbai again.
There's nothing special about this guy except that he's a bit good-looking and fair-skinned. Why do those people keep chasing after him?
"What will happen to him after he leaves his body?" Bai Yi couldn't help but wonder.
"Looking for a new host."
"Does that mean he wants to take over someone else's body?" Tang Lin said coldly.
Everyone's faces looked unhappy, and one crisis after another arose.
It was finally decided that a special department would take the body back for disposal.
"Little sister, um, I don't know your name yet?" Before Qing Yanrou was about to leave, Lin Yaoyao called her.
"Qing Yanrou."
"Hello Yanrou, my name is Lin Yaoyao, and I'm a key member of the special department. His name is Tang Lin, and he's our captain. I'd like to invite you to join the special department."
Lin Yaoyao didn't know that she had overheard them looking down on Qing Yanrou last time, so even though they were perfunctory and cold to her before, she still felt that no one could refuse the invitation from the special department.
"I'm sorry, but I still have to focus on my studies. My side job is just a charade. I'm afraid I can't get into this special department."
Qing Yanrou couldn't help but chuckle when she saw Lin Yaoyao's arrogant and alms-giving attitude.
When Chu Tingbai saw Lin Yaoyao's look, he pulled Qing Yanrou's wrist unhappily and took her away.
Lin Yaoyao frowned slightly when she heard the word "charlatan". It seemed that she had heard everything they said that day.
When Bai Yi saw Qing Yanrou leaving, he also planned to find a reason to withdraw, but was stopped by Tang Lin.
"You know her?"
Tang Lin looked at him with indifference, as if he would not let him go unless he told him.
"Yes, she is a freshman in our school, my junior."
"You know what I want to ask."
Bai Yi, who wanted to get away with it, felt a lump in his heart. He had just noticed that there seemed to be some unpleasantness between them and Qing Yanrou.
Qing Yanrou, who was usually such a well-behaved and warm-hearted girl, had just confronted them directly, and then she remembered that she had asked which was bigger, the special department or the Taoist sect last time, and it turned out to be here!
It seemed that the special department had done something to make her unhappy. Although he didn't want to offend Tang Lin, he didn't want to do anything that would make Qing Yanrou uncomfortable. After all, he was the real boss and he wanted to curry favor with him.
"She and I are just a simple senior and junior friend. If you insist on saying something, it's that I helped her get her Taoist certificate, that's all."
After saying this half-truth, he quickly slipped away.
