As soon as the elder finished explaining, a disciple couldn't help but muttered, "No wonder this place has become a haunted house."
Others were also talking about it.
"I heard that the buildings were built first and then the streets. No wonder it became a sickle-shaped evil. There must be something wrong with the construction of this road."
"But why do I remember there was a street around the building? It's called a jade belt around the waist. Getting promoted and getting rich is not a dream, right? Aren't many retail buildings built near roads?"
"That's why you say you're not very good at Feng Shui. A slight mistake can lead to a huge error. For example, if you put peach wood in your home, a peach wood axe or peach wood branch will bring you good fortune, but if you put a peach wood sword, it will bring bad luck. Do you understand?"
"Okay, you know what I mean. I'm a Taoist priest, not a Feng Shui master."
Someone raised a question: "Is it a demon? If it is a demon, there will be bloodshed, but I haven't heard of any major incidents here. If there were deaths such as jumping off a building, there should be news circulating."
"Yes, normally, a place that is filled with evil spirits should have constant accidents and bloody disasters. This building has been abandoned for several years, right? There should be a lot of resentment here, but even though the yin energy here is heavy, it doesn't make people feel uncomfortable."
"Hey, now that you mention it, I also find it strange. What is the reason?"
Everyone fell silent. The hall was so quiet that one could hear their breathing.
...
...
"Of course it's because our boss is here~"
The ethereal voice sounded again, very abruptly, and this time everyone noticed it.
Everyone was slightly surprised: "Who is it?"
Zhang Jinhuai took a few steps back, clenched the peach wood sword in his hand, raised his head and shouted: "Stop playing tricks there, come out!"
"I'm not pretending. I'm a ghost~"
The light and floating sound seemed to be closer to them. At the same time, Zhang Baodou felt a chill on his back and someone suddenly pinched his butt hard. He shivered in pain.
"Fuck, who is that?!" he blurted out, but as soon as he finished speaking, he found that there was no one around him. Everyone was standing at least three or four steps away from him.
"!!!"
After realizing who was pinching him, Zhang Baodou was struck by lightning. He let out a scream and jumped up from where he was standing in an instant as if his hair stood on end.
In such a tense moment, who would be so bored as to run over just to pinch his butt? It must be a ghost!
Everyone was startled by his sudden shout and looked back.
Zhang Jinhuai looked unhappy: "What are you doing? You are so startled."
Zhang Baodou's mind went blank, and he said with trembling lips: "Ghost, ghost, ghost... Ghost, there is a ghost!!"
Zhang Jinhuai: “…”
Everyone else: "..."
You are a Taoist priest, but you are afraid of ghosts. Aren’t you afraid that others will laugh at you if this gets out? !
There were several giggling sounds in the dark. Without asking, they knew it must be those little ghosts laughing at them.
It's bad enough that I'm teased by ghosts, but I'm also laughed at by them!
It's so embarrassing.
Zhang Jinhuai pinched his brows, deeply believing that it was a wrong decision to follow the arrangements of his senior master and let Zhang Baodou follow him out to see the world.
…
After Jing Cheng arrived at the coordinates Qin Yan sent him, he wanted to call the other party to ask about the situation, but his cell phone lost signal as soon as he entered the lobby on the first floor.
The only remaining function of this mobile phone that costs tens of thousands of dollars is "lighting".
The night did not affect his vision, so he put his phone back into his trouser pocket.
He glanced around the hall and found nothing unusual.
After thinking for a while, he took out a talisman from his pocket, unfolded it vertically, and flicked it lightly with his fingers.
Immediately, an invisible ripple spread out from the seal characters on the talisman paper.
This is a talisman that Jing Cheng adapted from the talismans used by their Jing family to seal demons. It can be considered a self-created talisman, specifically used to seal ghosts.
Its function is similar to that of dead jade.
However, the runes of the talisman can only suppress ghosts and have no function of harming them.
The little devil caught by Jing Cheng is in this talisman.
The talisman floated in the air, emitting a faint light. A wisp of green smoke floated out from the characters, and it slowly circled in the air before reluctantly transforming into a vague figure.
"You don't come here for no reason. Why do you ask me to come out?" The little ghost looked at Jing Cheng and said in a resentful tone.
The last time he helped Jing Cheng to gather information, Jing Cheng sealed him in a talisman after listening to it and never let him out again. Although it was only less than two days, he still had a feeling that the other party treated him as a slave.
Come when called and go when dismissed.
Humph, you stinky scumbag!
“…”
Jing Cheng doesn't understand why this little brat is so arrogant. Doesn't he understand the principle that others are the butchers and I am the meat?
He has everything in his hands, and you still dare to confront him.
Do you really think he won't be angry?
"There is something wrong with this building. Go help me find Qin Yan's whereabouts. It would be best if you could bring him here." Jing Cheng paused, then looked at it and said, "After you solve this problem, I'll go back and light a good incense candle for you."
He has been so generous, he should be calm now.
"I know." The little ghost floated in the air and answered angrily.
But I laughed in my heart: That’s pretty good.
After accepting the task, the little ghost was about to turn around to look for someone, but he found that the place Jing Cheng brought him to was extremely familiar. A thought flashed through his mind quickly, and he was dumbfounded.
Jing Cheng waited for a long time but it didn't move, so he raised his eyebrows: "What? One incense stick is not enough?" This little ghost is quite greedy.
"No!" The little ghost shook his head violently, looked at him nervously and said, "What are you doing here? Are you going to collect all the ghosts hiding here?"
Jing Cheng was not surprised that it knew there were many ghosts here. The yin energy was strong here, and this little ghost must be able to sense the existence of its own kind better than him, but he was surprised by the word it used - "ghosts hiding here".
Jing Cheng realized something, glanced at it, and said calmly: "This is where your 'boss' and you guys are, right?"
The little ghost was suddenly speechless and opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but when he saw Jing Cheng's expression, he didn't dare to speak.
He didn’t want to know what would happen if he angered the Heavenly Master.
When Jing Cheng saw that it didn't answer, he knew that he had guessed wrong.
This little kid was very cunning. He asked about the whereabouts of the "boss" several times, but the boss refused to tell him. Unexpectedly, he found their base camp by accident.
Jing Cheng deliberately said: "Tsk, you look guilty, did you hide here and do something bad before?"
"No, absolutely not!" The little devil shook his head so hard that he almost turned into a rattle, and said anxiously, "We never do bad things! You saw it before. The last time I was summoned as a spirit writing, I didn't take over a human body!"
“…”
Jing Cheng was shocked to see its excited expression and the surging Yin energy around it.
Logically speaking, when a person turns into a ghost after death, the three souls leave the body first, and then the seven spirits will gradually dissipate, and the remaining souls and spirits will definitely be incomplete.
The three souls and seven spirits control a person's seven emotions and six desires. An incomplete soul will lack emotions when it becomes a ghost.
But as he watched, he found that although the little ghost's soul was incomplete, his emotions were exactly the same as those of a normal person.
She would throw tantrums at him, think, get angry, giggle, get excited... and even think about others.
You know, even the most evil ghost among all ghosts is completely irrational.
Because the only reason to become a ghost is obsession.
Therefore, after becoming ghosts, their every word and action will be consistent with their own obsessions.
But this little brat said he didn't know what his obsession was...
He even completely forgot his memories of his previous life and didn't even remember his name.
For the first time, Jing Cheng took a serious look at the little ghost in front of him. Although they had only been together for a few days, Jing Cheng knew it relatively well.
From the first time he saw the little ghost, he directly classified it as a "ghost". Is it possible that the other party is not dead, but the soul has left the body?
The little ghost was stared at by him so hard that he froze and dared not move: "You...you...what are you looking at me for? I'm not lying."
Jing Cheng looked at it and said without thinking: "You don't remember how you died at all?"
He had asked this question once before, but he was not sure whether the other party had lied to him at that time.
"I... don't remember." Although he didn't know why Jing Cheng suddenly asked him this question, he was now afraid of offending Jing Cheng, so he could only answer the question honestly.
Jing Cheng stared at it for a while, and seeing that it didn't seem to be lying, he thought for a while, and suddenly said, "When you remember, remember to tell me."
This little ghost stayed with ghosts every day and was almost assimilated into them. Even he couldn't tell whether it was a living soul or a ghost.
If the soul has been away from the body for two or three years, even if the person is still alive, he will probably be a vegetable.
But as long as you don't completely turn into a ghost, there is still hope of resurrection.
The little ghost trembled when he looked at him, and nodded immediately after hearing his words: "I'll go find someone for you right away."
As soon as the words came out, it turned into a wisp of smoke and floated away.
I was afraid that Jing Cheng would suddenly say: I'm going to wipe out your entire nest.
This violent Master Jing Tian might be able to do anything!
