Chapter 405: Money is Enchanting 2
Someone had died in the room where the first body was found before. Because it was a haunted house, the landlord himself did not dare to live there.
But the house couldn't be sold and no one wanted to rent it, so it remained empty.
But now this kind of thing has happened again, and the house is even more difficult to sell, which makes the landlord very anxious.
"You said this was originally a haunted house?"
Qing Yanrou took a look and found that there was no evil aura in the room, so how could it be a haunted house?
"Indeed, when we came here earlier, there was still a trace of evil spirit, but it was very weak. Now it is completely gone."
After hearing this, Qing Yanrou fell into deep thought again.
"Try to summon the spirit again."
Chu Tingbai looked at her pensive little face and whispered.
"I asked the Taoist priest at Baiyun Temple to help me summon the spirit, but to no avail."
"The deceased's name."
"The deceased, Zhao Wenyi, was from Province T and was born on September 11, *****."
Qing Yanrou took out a talisman to summon souls. She was about to bite her finger and write relevant information about Zhao Wenyi on it with blood, but was stopped by Chu Tingbai who was standing beside her.
"I'll do it."
He blocked the finger she was about to put to her lips, took the talisman from her hand, and then bit his finger and drew on it.
After a while, they were all written down.
He chanted the spell and mobilized the spiritual power in his hands to make the talisman have the greatest effect.
In an instant, gusts of cold wind raged in the room where the three people were.
Lin Yaoyao was stunned for a moment. This was just an ordinary soul summoning, why was there such a big fuss?
If you don’t know, you might think it’s the appearance of the Ghost King!
Besides, isn't this Qing Yanrou's apprentice? When did he become so strong?!
It's only been a little over a year since I joined Yantai Temple...
For a moment, she didn't know whether she should lament that Chu Tingbai's talent was too extraordinary, or that Qing Yanrou had a unique way of teaching her disciples.
However, she also didn't know that although Chu Tingbai was originally gifted, his biggest reason now was because he had recovered his memory.
But despite such a big commotion, it didn't really attract the soul of the dead.
"It's useless. The Taoist priest from Baiyun Temple tried several times but failed..."
Before Lin Yaoyao could finish her words, a soul floated in from the door.
Isn't that the face of the first corpse in the morgue? !
"He really managed to attract this! You're indeed someone from Yantai Temple..."
Looking at the confused and bewildered ghost, Lin Yaoyao muttered to herself.
"Are you Zhao Wenyi?"
Seeing that neither of them wanted to ask questions, Lin Yaoyao gathered her thoughts and began to ask.
Qing Yanrou pulled Chu Tingbai's hand and gently rubbed his bitten fingertips with her fingers. Then spiritual power was transferred from her fingers to his fingertips.
Chu Tingbai's fingertips were slightly itchy and his heart was numb because of her action, just as his mind began to waver.
The spiritual power alleviated the originally negligible stinging pain, and the slight itchiness also disappeared.
"It doesn't hurt."
He didn't care about such a small wound, but she cared about it so carefully.
He just felt like he had eaten honey, which was extremely sweet.
"Um."
Although Qing Yanrou agreed verbally, her hands did not stop moving at all, and she continued to treat the wound that was not visible at all.
"Master Qing, he is Zhao Wenyi."
"This person looks exactly like Zhao Wenyi, and was summoned here through spirit summoning. Who else could it be but Zhao Wenyi?"
Qing Yanrou looked at Lin Yaoyao strangely, as if she didn't understand why she would say such nonsense, after all, she was a core member of the special department.
Lin Yaoyao: “…”
She saw that her attention was not on this at all, so she just picked up a topic to get her attention back!
"Where has your soul been these days?"
Qing Yanrou and Chu Tingbai still held hands, but her attention was now back on the case.
"Are you a Taoist priest? Then can you please save us?"
When Zhao Wenyi heard Lin Yaoyao calling her "Taoist Master", he was immediately excited.
"Answer my question first, otherwise how can I save you?"
"Okay, okay."
Zhao Wenyi said "OK" three times in a row before he calmed down his overly excited emotions and started talking to them.
"For the past few days, I and five other ghosts have been locked in a room. The room is full of talismans, and we can't escape."
"Five? Including you, there are six of us?"
"Yes."
Zhao Wenyi didn't know why she asked this, but he still said it honestly and affirmatively.
The six ghosts have been together for almost a week, so he still knows exactly how many there are.
When Qing Yanrou heard the affirmative answer, she looked at Lin Yaoyao.
"Are Wang Xiaojuan, **, Meng Jun, Li Xin and the other four people inside?"
"some."
"Who is the other person? What's his name?"
There have been no new reports received in the past two days. Could it be that a murder has occurred but no one knows about it?
Lin Yaoyao was so confused.
The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and something like this is really enough to make me want to pull out all my hair.
"And Zhang Wenwen, she died earlier than all of us, she died in this room.
Her soul has been trapped in here ever since, and was later taken back by that person and imprisoned with us."
Zhao Wenyi's words made Lin Yaoyao feel relieved.
Fortunately, it’s not a recent case, but why did that person still want to arrest Zhang Wenwen?
"Of course I'm afraid she'll give you clues."
Lin Yaoyao didn't pay attention. She expressed her doubts while thinking about it. Now, after hearing Qing Yanrou's answer, she felt that it made sense.
"Do you know who killed you? Who brought your souls back? Did they do anything to you?"
Seeing that she was tired of standing and asking questions, Chu Tingbai used a cleaning talisman to clean the leather sofa next to her and pulled her to sit down with him.
Lin Yaoyao also took advantage of the situation, sat down, and took out a recorder.
Although their special department doesn't have to pay attention to too many rules when handling cases, she still recorded it to prevent any omissions.
"I don't know, I just went out to the convenience store downstairs to buy a pack of cigarettes, and I don't know how I lost consciousness.
When I regained consciousness, I was already trapped in a room covered in talismans as a ghost."
Zhao Wenyi himself was also confused. He didn't know why he died. He hadn't been home for the Chinese New Year for two years. This year he planned to take his girlfriend home to meet his parents for the New Year.
But, he died inexplicably.
"Then do you know where the room you are being held in is?"
"I don't know. That room is always dim. But we can hear a loud noise in the room. It sounds like a heavy truck."
Zhao Wenyi didn't even remember how he died, which made Lin Yaoyao give up all hope of further questioning.
But I didn't expect there would be such a sudden turn of events. Although there are still few clues, it is much better than having no clues at all.
