"Brother Yang, that woman is missing!" Yuquan said in surprise.
I sighed and said, "I saw it."
Qi Chen, who was standing on the side, spoke tremblingly: "Two masters, what should we do next? ... ... Otherwise, we should call the police directly. Now we have recorded the recording of Guan Xinrui killing someone, and she has admitted it. We can ask the police to arrest her. She killed someone and should be punished. This is also to give Xintong justice."
I thought about it and said to Yuquan and Qi Chen, "There is something strange about Guan Xinrui, and it involves a Taoist ghost catcher. We have to be careful. Don't call the police for now. Wait until we find the Taiyin Pearl."
"Let's go to Guan Xinrui's home. Maybe the ghost of Guan Xintong in the bronze mirror knows who rescued Guan Xinrui."
Neither of them had any objections, and we left the water park.
I hailed a taxi at the entrance of the water park and drove straight to Guan Xinrui's home.
Half an hour later, the three of us stood at the door of Room 501, Unit 3, Qing'an Apartment.
"The door is locked. We don't have the key. I'm afraid we can't get in."
Qi Chen whispered, looking left and right like a thief.
I reached out and opened the soul collecting bucket at my waist, and told Duoduo, "Duoduo, come out. Big brother needs to open the door. See if you can do it."
Duoduo had hidden her soul before, so Qi Chen didn't see her, he just heard her voice.
After hearing what I said, Qi Chen's face changed and he quickly stepped back.
I glanced at him and comforted him, "Don't worry, he's my friend. Even though he's a ghost, he won't hurt you."
But Qi Chen's face was still full of worry.
Soon, Duoduo's soul appeared and hovered at the door of Room 501.
"Big brother, what do you want me to do?" Duoduo asked in a crisp voice.
I pointed to the door of Room 501 and said, "See if you can open this door."
Duoduo put a finger in her mouth, thought for a moment and said to me, "Sure. I can use the will-o'-the-wisp to melt the lock on this door."
I thought it was okay, so I said, "Let's do it."
Afterwards, Yuquan and I stepped back like Qi Chen did.
Qi Chen's body was already against the wall. He lowered his head and secretly glanced at the troublemaker Duoduo from time to time.
Duoduo's soul approached the iron gate, and then a cluster of green will-o'-the-wisp appeared in her palm. The will-o'-the-wisp flickered faintly, like a living thing.
Then, Duoduo pointed her finger at the door lock, and the ghost fire, as if it had received an order, followed Duoduo's finger and went into the door lock.
Then, the area near the door handle began to turn red and emit a smell of rust, and then a fist-sized hole appeared where the door lock was.
Silently! On the door, a red liquid flowed down along the door panel.
In less than two minutes, Duoduo turned around, looked at me with a smile, and said softly, "Big brother, it's okay, the door can be opened."
I nodded, walked forward, stretched out my hand and tried, and the door was opened immediately.
After I opened the door, the ghost fire flew out of the hole and entered Duoduo's soul.
Seeing the door open, Qi Chen showed an incredible expression on his face.
Yuquan looked at him and said, "Don't worry. For a ghost-catching Taoist like my brother Yang, this method is a piece of cake."
I glared at Yuquan and said, "You are the only one who talks too much. You don't act like a monk at all."
Yuquan chanted the Buddha's name and said seriously, "Amitabha! Brother Yang, I am indeed a monk.
I am a monk, and I am quite different from the monks in the temples. They cultivate the way of self-cultivation and saving others, while I cultivate the way of freedom and transcendence. Different, different!"
This guy, he's out of breath when he's called fat.
Then the three of us went into Guan Xinrui's home.
Guan Xinrui's house had curtains drawn in the daytime, and the room was very dark. The floor tiles were white, but for some reason, it looked like the floor had not been cleaned for a long time, and it was a little yellow and black. There were not many furnishings in the room, and the sofa, coffee table, and cabinets all looked a little old, exuding a sense of decay.
"Duoduo, where is the bronze mirror?" I turned around and looked at Duoduo.
Duoduo flew in front of me, raised her hand and pointed in the direction of the bedroom, saying, "It's in the bedroom. There is a cabinet in the bedroom. At the bottom of the cabinet, there is a square mahogany box."
I went straight to the bedroom, Qi Chen followed closely behind me, and Yuquan closed the door casually.
When I entered the bedroom, I saw the cabinet.
After searching at the bottom of the cabinet, I finally found the mahogany box.
Seeing me take out the mahogany box, Qi Chen asked me with some fear: "Master Yang, is Xin...Xintong's soul really in the bronze mirror?"
I nodded and said, "That's right. Last night, my friend Duoduo went into Guan Xinrui's room, and it was Guan Xinrui who took out the bronze mirror from this box."
As I said that, I casually opened the mahogany box.
Sure enough, there was a bronze mirror that looked very old placed in the mahogany box.
"Big brother, it's this mirror." Duoduo said in a low voice.
I nodded and stared at the bronze mirror.
There is a talisman on the bronze mirror. It is a "soul-locking talisman" that can lock the soul or ghost in a certain space. The bronze mirror has spirituality because of its age, so there is space inside it. This also proves the saying that everything has a spirit.
Qi Chen might be anxious to see Guan Xintong's ghost, so he moved a little closer to me.
There were tears in his eyes, and he stared at the bronze mirror in my hand with burning eyes, as if he was about to cry.
The mirror was shining, reflecting my face.
Without thinking too much, I tore off the soul-locking talisman on the bronze mirror.
As the soul-locking talisman was torn off, a "woooo" cry suddenly came from the bronze mirror. The cry was not loud, but it was very long and sad, and it could be heard clearly.
Afterwards, an illusory human figure emerged on the smooth surface of the bronze mirror.
When I saw the figure, I was stunned.
In the bronze mirror, what I saw was a bloody face, including the scarlet flesh and earthworm-like blood vessels on the face.
"ah!"
Qi Chen screamed in fear and quickly took a few steps back.
He leaned against the wall, holding his chest, breathing heavily, his eyes a little dazed, and muttered: "No, no, no... No, Xintong, she is not Xintong! She has no face, no face..."
The ghost in the bronze mirror stopped crying immediately after hearing Qi Chen's voice and asked in surprise: "Qi Chen, Qi Chen... is that you? I am Guan Xintong, I am Xintong!..."
In fact, Guan Xintong has no shame, and this is just the side of her soul that is revealed.
As the bronze mirror shone, another face appeared on Guan Xintong's bloody face. It was Guan Xintong's own face, an illusion.
"Master Qi, it's Guan Xintong, it's really your girlfriend Guan Xintong!" Yuquan said.
Qi Chen's gaze moved to the bronze mirror again.
When I saw Guan Xintong transformed again
When he saw his face coming out, he couldn't hold it in any longer, and Qi Chen's tears burst out of his eyes and flowed out.
Qi Chen threw himself on the bed and slowly took the bronze mirror from my hands with both hands.
Guan Xintong in the bronze mirror was excited. She looked at Qi Chen, sobbing and speaking, "Qi Chen, it's really you. I really see you again. This is my wish, and I didn't expect it to come true today. It's so good to see you. I want to tell you that although I'm dead, I will always love you."
Qi Chen hugged the bronze mirror, as if he was holding a person instead of a bronze mirror.
"I know you love me. I know everything... If it weren't for Guan Xinrui, we would have already started a family. Maybe you would have given birth to a child for me. We would definitely be very happy together."
Afterwards, Qi Chen took the bronze mirror away from his chest and held it in his hands.
He just sat on the bedside table in the bedroom, facing Guan Xintong in the bronze mirror. One person and one ghost, talking to each other, as if there were endless things to say.
At the end of the conversation, Guan Xintong seemed to have thought of something and asked Qi Chen: "Qi Chen, but why are you here? Where is Guan Xinrui? Did she ask you to come here? Where is she? ... She is not a good person. You should stay away from her, otherwise she will kill you sooner or later. Guan Xinrui is no longer my sister, she is a psychopath."
Qi Chen shook his head and said, "Guan Xinrui is not here. We are looking for her now too."
Having found something to talk about, I leaned over, looked at Guan Xintong in the bronze mirror, and asked, "Guan Xintong, why are you trapped in the bronze mirror? Is it the work of the ghost-catching Taoist priest? Can you tell me where the ghost-catching Taoist priest is?"
Guan Xintong stared at me in surprise and asked, "Who are you?"
I replied, "I am also a ghost hunter."
Unexpectedly, when Guan Xintong heard me say that I was a ghost-catching Taoist priest, her face suddenly became gloomy. Her eyes turned black, without any white in them.
Her mouth was open, and her white teeth covered with mucus were exposed.
"You are a ghost-catching Taoist priest, not a good person. I will kill you! Ghost-catching Taoist priests are not good people. I am already dead, but you still trapped my soul in the bronze mirror. Now, I have become a ghost. Are you satisfied?"
As he spoke, the bronze mirror shook violently, and Guan Xintong's soul was about to come out of the bronze mirror.
A dry hand suddenly stretched out from the bronze mirror.
This was beyond my expectations.
I was caught off guard and the hand grabbed my neck directly.
The ghost hand was so powerful that I felt like the larynx in my neck was about to break. My breathing became rapid.
"Ghost, stop! If you hurt anyone, I will kill you!"
Yuquan shouted and was about to take action.
The troublemaker Duoduo, who was floating on the side, showed an anxious look on his face.
Qi Chen was also very nervous and said quickly: "No, don't hurt him, he is my friend and he is here to help you, Xintong, don't hurt him, he is a good person. If it weren't for him, I wouldn't be able to see you, Xintong..."
Qi Chen's words were very effective. With a "whoosh", Guan Xintong's ghost hand retracted into the bronze mirror.
"Cough, cough, cough!" I covered my throat and started coughing violently.
Guan Xintong's ghost looked at Qi Chen and asked, "Can you tell me what happened? Why is there a ghost-catching Taoist priest around you?"
Afterwards, Qi Chen told Guan Xintong about our affairs.
Guan Xintong's eyes have returned to normal color.
Seeing me return to the bronze mirror, she said with a guilty look, "I'm sorry, Master, I misunderstood you. Don't worry, I know where the ghost-catching Taoist priest is, and I can help you find him."
