It was a dark and windy night, with the howling sound of the wind as if someone was crying. Walking among the neatly arranged tombstones, the eerie feeling was particularly obvious.
Holding the amulet he bought at a high price tightly in both hands, Lin Xiaoman followed Xie Ziyu closely.
For some reason, scenes from puppet movies I've seen before kept popping up in my mind, and I couldn't control it at all.
The more I think about it, the more terrifying it becomes.
Fortunately, nothing special happened and the two arrived at Xiao Huai's tomb smoothly.
Xie Ziyu took out a red candle from his tool kit, stuck it on the ground in front of the tombstone, and lit it with a lighter. The green candle flame flickered faintly, creating an atmosphere very much like a horror movie.
As the candle burned, Lin Xiaoman smelled a strange smell, which was pleasant with a hint of fragrance.
"Master, could this be the legendary corpse oil candle?"
"You're overthinking it. This is just an ordinary incense candle used for tomb sweeping, but with a little bit of Yin energy added. The term in the world is: soul-guiding candle, which can guide the puppet..."
Before Xie Ziyun could finish his words, a dark figure slowly appeared in front of the tombstone. "Boss Jiang, are you here to see me?"
Xiao Huai, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, appeared again and gave her a big smile. His pale face and bright red lips made the whole smile look very strange.
Stay calm, don't lose your composure! We can win!
Lin Xiaoman had a wooden face, breathing in and out, I'm not afraid!
Of course, you have to hold the amulet tightly.
"Tsk, do you think I don't exist?" Xie Ziyu sneered, raised his right hand, and the golden thread on his wrist flew out, binding the puppet tightly in an instant.
The battle ended, and the comments were, "Tsk, a scumbag."
"You...ah...let me go...let me go..." Xiao Huai's originally gentle face gradually became ferocious.
"Let me ask you, who was the female puppet who killed you?"
"Ahh, let me go..."
"explain!"
The golden light on the golden thread suddenly became brighter, and there was a crackling sound of corrosion, and black smoke came out of Xiao Huai's body.
"Ahhh! I'll tell you, I'll tell you..." Xiao Huai screamed in pain, his face twisted. "Master, I was killed by a puppet... Her name is Zhang Yang... She killed me. Please avenge me, Master!"
"Why would she want to kill you? What's your relationship with her?"
"I don't know. We were classmates in junior high school. Later she got married. I heard her husband was abusive and she died later. I don't know either!"
"Tell the truth!"
"I...we did date, but then we broke up because we were not suitable for each other. I really don't know!" Xiao Huai refused to admit it.
"You must have cheated on her! You scumbag! Master, he must be lying. For such a person, no, such a puppet, a beating will make him behave himself."
"Yeah, that's what I thought."
As the golden thread tightened, the black energy on Xiao Huai's body became more intense, and the whole puppet looked even thinner.
She screamed several times, "I'm telling you, I'm telling you... Zhang Yang and I are from the same village, went to the same junior high school, and have been dating since then. When I graduated, my family was poor and couldn't afford the tuition, so she volunteered to work to support my studies. Then, when I was in college, her family asked for a betrothal gift, but we didn't have the money, so her parents accepted a high betrothal gift and married her off to an old bachelor in the village.
Then in August of this year, my mother told me that Zhang Yang had died. It seemed her parents had taken some money from that old bachelor and built a new house. I suspect Zhang Yang was beaten to death by that old bachelor. This really has nothing to do with me! Master, my death was so unjust.
"Do you think it's credible?" After listening to Xiao Huai's statement, Xie Ziyu looked quite unconvinced.
"It's half true, half false. He probably dumped her after he got into college. Zhang Yang's parents aren't good people either. They used her as a gift."
"Now that the identity is confirmed, it will be much easier." As he said that, Xie Ziyu took out a gold-plated bottle from the toolbox.
As the golden thread was retracted, Xiao Huai turned into a ball of black gas and was taken into the bottle accompanied by a shrill scream.
"Received it?"
"Well, now we have a clue. Let's go back to sleep. When we find out tomorrow, we will use this scumbag ghost puppet to lure her out." As he spoke, Xie Ziyu collected the candle that had not yet burned out and returned alone along the original route.
The distance between the two of them widened, and the cold wind blew, and even Lin Xiaoman, who was wearing a sweater inside and a coat outside, shivered unconsciously.
It feels like the air has turned colder!
"Master, wait for me!"
Lin Xiaoman hurriedly chased after him.
One in front and one behind, they walked and walked... walked and walked... and then something was wrong.
The night was dark and the scenery was hazy. Lin Xiaoman inexplicably sensed something was wrong. When they arrived, it took them 12 to 15 minutes to get from the parking lot to Xiao Huai's tombstone.
But now, she has been walking for at least 20 minutes!
"Master!" Lin Xiaoman shouted hurriedly, but Xie Ziyu in front continued to move forward without noticing anything.
"Wait!" Lin Xiaoman quickened her pace and reached out to grab his coat, but something happened that shocked her.
The person was clearly right in front of her, yet he seemed so far away that she couldn't reach him at all.
Woc! Ruthless!
Something must have happened!
He shouted twice, "Xie Ziyun! Xie Ziyun!" and at the same time, Lin Xiaoman waved the amulet in front of his eyes with his hand.
Well, the scenery hasn't changed at all, but the person in front of me has disappeared.
"Butler Xiaobai, SOS!"
