Just as we were anxiously waiting for the result of Lou Xiaoman's soul-calling, Ma Qiang ran over from the second-floor corridor, panting.
As he ran, he muttered, "Brother Yang, I returned as fast as I could. Luckily there was no traffic jam on the road, but I was so tired! You hid these two things very well. If you hadn't told me where they were, I wouldn't have been able to find them."
I took the two packages from Ma Qiang's hands and looked at him, signaling him not to talk too much.
Ma Qiang understood what was going on, so he immediately stopped talking!
But his eyes were fixed on Sister Xilan, just like a bee seeing a flower bud.
Then Ma Qiang came up to Zhao Xilan with a smile and said, "Beautiful lady, it's our first meeting. Please take care of me!"
This guy actually reached out to shake hands with Zhao Xilan.
Damn it, this guy already has He Man, but he’s still thinking about other women.
Zhao Xilan didn't care. After shaking hands with Ma Qiang, she replied cheerfully, "Hello, buddy!"
The word "brother" stunned Ma Qiang.
Ma Qiang looked at me, then at Zhao Xilan, rubbed the back of his head, and smiled awkwardly: "Hello!"
Soon Ma Qiang came close to me again and whispered to me, "Brother Yang, who is this girl? Why is she so straightforward and keeps calling me 'brother'? It gives me goose bumps!"
I rolled my eyes at Ma Qiang and warned him, "Her name is Zhao Xilan, but she already has a boyfriend. And she's also a Taoist priest who catches ghosts. You'd better not have any bad ideas, or else she'll punish you, and I won't care."
"And the middle-aged woman in the ward is her master. She is even more powerful and is not someone you can mess with!"
After hearing what I said, Ma Qiang secretly glanced at Zhao Xilan.
Then he shook his head and said, "She is really a Taoist priest. I think I should stay away from her to avoid getting into trouble."
After that, Ma Qiang stood back.
Sister Xilan saw the two of us whispering to each other and asked, "Brother Tianyi, are you two okay?"
I said awkwardly: "It's okay... nothing happened!"
At this time, the door of the ward was opened from the inside.
Lou Xiaoman frowned, with sweat on her forehead, and walked out of the ward with a gloomy expression.
Seeing Lou Xiaoman coming out, Aunt Huang went up to her and asked anxiously, "Master Lou, has my daughter's soul been summoned back? Do you know how she died? If she has been summoned back, I want to see my daughter!"
Our eyes all turned to Lou Xiaoman.
But what I didn't expect was that Lou Xiaoman sighed, shook her head and said, "I didn't summon Huang Susu's soul back. I failed!"
I saw that Lou Xiaoman was listless and looked a little depressed, so I hurried over and asked, "Master Lou, you didn't call back Su Su's ghost? How... how could this happen?"
Lou Xiaoman didn't say it directly, but turned to me and said: "Yang Tianyi, come with me, I have something to tell you!"
Something happened? It seems that it is probably because Su Su's soul has not been summoned back.
I hurriedly followed.
In a corner near the ward, Lou Xiaoman tidied her hair and stopped.
I stopped beside her, leaning sideways towards her cheek.
I asked anxiously, "Master Lou, is there something wrong?"
Lou Xiaoman said to me in a sullen manner: "Yang Tianyi, I think you should not think about saving your girlfriend, and don't investigate the cause of her death!
”
"Why?"
Judging from Lou Xiaoman’s expression, she must have discovered something!
As expected, Lou Xiaoman sighed and said, "It's like this, Yang Tianyi, when I was summoning your girlfriend's soul just now, I found something very troublesome. I suspect that your girlfriend's soul has been imprisoned. I used the "paper cutting soul summoning method" and the "soul flag soul summoning method", but your girlfriend's soul didn't react at all."
"That's why I suspect her soul has been imprisoned by someone. And the connection between her soul, body and birth chart has also been cut off by someone or something!"
The situation Lou Xiaoman encountered was similar to what I encountered before.
Earlier I thought it was because of my lack of skills and skills, but now it seems that it is not my problem. Just like Lou Xiaoman said, Su Su's soul was imprisoned by something.
For a moment, a feeling of uneasiness spread in my heart.
I asked Lou Xiaoman directly, "Master Lou, do you have any way to help me find Huang Susu's soul?"
What was disappointing was that Lou Xiaoman shook her head and said with regret: "I can't help you with this! Your girlfriend might have offended someone or some evil creature, so her heart was taken away and her soul was imprisoned!"
Now I am also very confused. I don't know whether Su Su's death was caused by human beings or evil beings. If it was caused by human beings, then that person must be extraordinary. If it was caused by evil beings, then it would be even more terrifying!
I stood there with my head filled with paste and couldn't think clearly at all.
What is the problem here?
I asked Aunt Huang before whether Lou Xiaoman had offended anyone or anything else, but Aunt Huang denied it outright, saying that Huang Susu had been hospitalized ever since she was diagnosed with cancer and would never offend anyone.
Seeing my serious and uneasy expression, Lou Xiaoman said softly: "Yang Tianyi, you'd better listen to me. Your girlfriend is dead and she has cancer. Even if you really find her soul, she will no longer live in the world of the living."
I didn't respond to Lou Xiaoman's words. I just stood there stupidly.
At this time, Lou Xiaoman spoke again: "It's almost evening. Do you remember the deal just now? Use your life-extending beads to exchange for the snow-condensing beads in my hand... However, I think you'd better think it over carefully. After all, your girlfriend has passed away! And the life-extending beads are still very valuable!"
I slowly raised my head and looked out the window.
I filtered out Lou Xiaoman’s words!
I thought of the good times Huang Susu and I had in college.
She was so beautiful at that time. We agreed to get married after graduating from college and have a bunch of kids... But in reality, she passed away!!
She is only 25 years old. If she hadn't been ill and if things hadn't happened, she would probably still be with me. We would work together, eat together, live together, start a family, get married and have children...
But that's just my fantasy.
Susu is beautiful, but also unfortunate.
I slowly withdrew my gaze and fixed my eyes on Lou Xiaoman in front of me.
Then I took out a small bag wrapped in yellow tape from the cloth bag.
I handed the small bag to Lou Xiaoman and said, "I have decided. I must find out the cause of Su Su's death, and I must find a way to bring her back to life. It is not fair for her to die before her life span ends!"
Lou Xiaoman's brows wrinkled slightly.
she
He looked at me silently.
Then, she actually spoke to me very seriously, "I originally thought you were a greasy boy, but your decision today made me look at you in a new light! It seems that you are still a sentimental person. This is great!"
Although Lou Xiaoman showed me an approving look, she still took the bag containing the "life-extending beads" from my hand.
Then Lou Xiaoman opened the small bag and looked inside.
After confirming that the life-extending bead was inside, she nodded and said, "Okay, since you have made up your mind, let's exchange!"
Lou Xiaoman took out a small wooden box from her body and handed it to me.
When he opened the wooden box, there was a snow bead inside.
The snow beads fell into my hands, and I felt a cool sensation. The beads were transparent, but there were snowflake-like things inside.
Lou Xiaoman explained: "Yang Tianyi, this is the Snow Condensation Pearl. Just like I said before, it can preserve the corpse from decaying, just like the state it was in when it died."
"This bead is a very high-end item. I found it in a tree hole deep in the Great Snow Mountain when I went there. Snowflakes have condensed inside the bead. When the snowflakes inside melt away, the entire snow bead will be ineffective!"
"But I can assure you that it can preserve your girlfriend's body for two years!"
I nodded and said, "Okay, Master Lou, then our deal is done!"
Lou Xiaoman looked at me and said nothing more. Then she raised her leg and walked past me.
When she left, she also told me not to tell anyone that she had obtained the Life-Extending Pearl, and I agreed.
After a while, Lou Xiaoman took Sister Xilan away from the hospital.
I let out a long breath to make myself look more energetic.
Then I turned around and walked towards the ward.
At this time, Ma Qiang and Aunt Huang had already entered the ward.
After pushing open the door of the ward, Aunt Huang and I briefly explained the function of the Snow Condensation Beads. Then I slowly pried open Susu's grayish mouth and stuffed the Snow Condensation Beads into her mouth.
The Snow Beads can only be preserved by being held in the mouth and reacting with saliva!
After doing all this, I opened the paper package containing the Yin-Yang Soul Crossing Notes without any hesitation in front of Aunt Huang and Ma Qiang.
Seeing the Yin-Yang Soul Crossing Notes, Ma Qiang was a little surprised and asked me, "Brother Yang, what is this book of yours?"
I explained simply: "It's a secret book on catching ghosts. It contains some information about catching ghosts."
After that, Ma Qiang didn't ask any more questions. He looked at the notes in my hand with an eager gaze.
And when I opened the notebook and turned to the last page, and compared it with the handprint on Susu's chest, I was already very sure: the bloody handprint on the notebook and the bloody handprint on Susu's body were the same.
"Brother Yang, it's the same. The bloody handprint on your book is the same as the handprint on your girlfriend Huang Susu!"
That’s right, it’s the same, both are bloody handprints!
But who does the bloody handprint belong to? And why did it appear on Su Su's body
These are the questions in my mind.
But now we have a clue after all, and that clue is Jiang Jiuzhen.
This is what I think: The bloody handprint on Huang Susu's body is the same as the bloody handprint on the notebook, and the bloody handprint also appears on the Yin-Yang Soul Crossing Notes left by Jiang Jiuzhen, which means that Jiang Jiuzhen should know what the "bloody handprint" is all about!
The problem facing me now is that Jiang Jiuzhen is already dead!!
What should I do about this
