This red rope symbolizes the wheel of life. She has dipped it in cinnabar and infused it with her own spiritual power. Once it breaks, it means that something has happened to the person she cares about.
Just then, the cell phone rang and the caller ID showed that the number was an unfamiliar number.
"Excuse me, is this Miss Qiao?" A man's shrill voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Are you Alan?" Qiao Ruoxi recognized the voice.
The other party paused noticeably.
"I didn't expect Miss Qiao to still remember me. Yan Bing left a suicide note before the accident. It has something to do with you, Miss Qiao. If you are free, can you come to the hospital?"
Something happened?
Qiao Ruoxi stood up suddenly: "Send me the address, I'll come right over."
When Mrs. Shen heard that someone had an accident, she immediately asked Uncle Liao to take Qiao Ruoxi to the hospital, which only took about twenty minutes.
Alan was very surprised when he saw Qiao Ruoxi appear at the door of the ward.
He didn't expect Qiao Ruoxi to come so quickly. He thought that given the friendship between Qiao Ruoxi and Yan Bing, she wouldn't even come in person.
"What's going on with Yan Bing?" Qiao Ruoxi asked.
Alan sighed, "He committed suicide by swallowing sleeping pills. Although he was discovered early and had his stomach washed urgently, and everything that should be done was done, he just wouldn't wake up, and the doctors were powerless to help."
Qiao Ruoxi frowned.
Although she had not driven the vengeful spirit away from Yan Bing before, she had secretly created a barrier, so that at least the vengeful spirit would no longer affect Yan Bing.
Unless something unexpected happens.
"Things shouldn't be as simple as you said, right?" Qiao Ruoxi looked at Allen.
Alan was stunned for a moment, but finally nodded.
"This matter concerns Yan Bing's reputation, but Miss Qiao, you are a trustworthy person. I believe you will keep this secret for her."
Upon hearing this, Qiao Ruoxi had a bad feeling.
"The doctor said that Yan Bing had multiple scratches, bruises, and lacerations on her body. The preliminary diagnosis was rape, but this silly girl took a shower before the incident and left no evidence, so there is no way to determine who committed the crime." Alan said gritting his teeth.
"Why didn't you call the police?" Qiao Ruoxi's eyes were cold.
Allen's expression was complicated: "Since this girl took a bath before the accident, it is obvious that she didn't want this matter to be known. She is a girl, and I don't want her to be pointed at after her death."
"Ridiculous!" Qiao Ruoxi suddenly shouted.
Alan was suddenly startled and looked at Qiao Ruoxi in surprise.
"Is it fair that the perpetrators, not the victims, are guilty, yet the victims have to endure the harshest criticism and humiliation?"
Allen's cheeks flushed red. "But, but that's how real life is. If this gets out, people will just say flies don't bite seamless eggs. In the end, even if Yan Bing dies, I'll still be in trouble."
"Flies not only bite cracked eggs, they also bite stinky toilets, fragrant meals, and even tables and chairs. Toilets can solve your three urgent needs, meals can keep you warm and full, and tables and chairs can provide rest. Are they also wrong? The fault is clearly the flies!"
Alan opened his mouth, but couldn't say a word.
"Tolerance will only make the abuser more rampant. If you really want to do good for Yan Bing, call the police immediately. There may be clues where Yan Bing lives. Let the police give her a fair explanation!" Qiao Ruoxi said and turned to leave.
Allen gritted his teeth and chased after her: “Miss Qiao, wait a minute!”
Qiao Ruoxi stopped.
"Yan Bing's suicide note mentioned you. Would you like to take a look?"
Qiao Ruoxi took the suicide note, the handwriting was very delicate.
It said that her mother had bought her an insurance policy and she would receive a sum of money after her death, of which 5,000 yuan would be used to pay the remaining rent, 3 million yuan would be returned to Qiao Ruoxi, and the rest would be used for her mother's follow-up treatment.
"I was a master and disciple of that girl. She entrusted me to help her handle the money. Miss Qiao, please send me your bank account. If Yan Bing is really... gone, I will transfer the money to you when it arrives." Alan suppressed his voice.
Qiao Ruoxi returned the suicide note to Allen and glanced at Yan Bing lying on the hospital bed. "She's just lost her soul, she's not dead yet. If the medical expenses are not enough, I will advance them to save her life."
After saying that, he strode away.
Alan was stunned for a long while.
Lost your soul? What does that mean!
He looked in the direction Qiao Ruoxi left, then looked at Yan Bing, and finally gritted his teeth, took out his cell phone, and dialed the police.
Miss Qiao is right, the perpetrator must be punished, and he must bring that beast to justice!
Qiao Ruoxi left the hospital and called Taoist Wuya directly: "Please prepare a few things for me. I'll send you an address later and we'll meet there."
Taoist Wuya immediately responded: "Understood!"
Two hours later, Taoist Wu Ya came over panting, holding a huge pile of things.
"Master, we have finally collected everything you requested. What are you going to do?"
Qiao Ruoxi's eyes were cold as she uttered two words: "Summon the spirit."
Taoist Wu Ya's breathing stagnated, and he stopped breathing. His eyes widened. "Summon, summon spirits? Are we going to see ghosts again?"
"If you're scared, you can leave first. I'll be alone here." As he said that, Qiao Ruoxi squatted down and began to search for those things.
"I won't leave. With the master here, I'm not afraid of anything!" Taoist Wu Ya patted his chest. This was a once-in-a-lifetime learning opportunity. How could he miss it!
Taoist Wu Ya's eyes widened as he watched Qiao Ruoxi making the soul-calling banner. He had only seen it on TV, and this was the first time he saw it with his own eyes.
Next is the formation.
Qiao Ruoxi looked up at the third floor. That was where Yan Bing lived. She had written it down since she had mentioned him in the suicide note. With the exact address, it would be easier to summon the soul.
She tied red ropes soaked in cinnabar to the surrounding trees, and then sealed it with peach wood on all sides. This was used to lock the soul to prevent the soul from not recognizing people and escaping after being attracted.
Then, Qiao Ruoxi began to chant the spell to summon the soul.
When he was halfway through reciting the mantra, the surrounding trees began to move without wind. Qiao Ruoxi held the spirit-calling banner horizontally in her hand and shouted, "Go!"
Then I saw that the white copper coin paper that was originally hanging on the soul-calling banner suddenly stood up!
Taoist Wu Ya covered his mouth in surprise: "Goodness, Newton's coffin lid can't hold it down anymore!"
"Collect!" Qiao Ruoxi shouted again.
The spirit-calling banner cast a shadow so transparent that it was almost invisible, floating aimlessly in the barrier encircled by the red rope.
"Wow, this ghost is quiet and peaceful, much more gentle than that greasy brother from last time!" Taoist Wu Ya couldn't help but sigh when he recalled the scene of capturing Pei Yaori that day.
"Because there is only one of her souls and one spirit here, and two souls and six spirits are missing."
Qiao Ruoxi looked at the barrier and frowned even more tightly.
