The paper figure has no facial features, simple limbs, and no finger joints or other decorations.
Chen Ling opened it and found nothing inside.
Wu Weiwei: "Brother Chen, do you remember what you said before, that Huang Fu ghost can change his form at will..."
Chen Ling tightened his grip on the paper man, pinching his head with one hand and his body with the other, and with a "hissing" sound, the paper man broke into two pieces.
Wu Weiwei: “…”
Breaking it in two was not enough, Chen Ling continued to tear it until it became snow-like fragments. Then he took out a piece of torn talisman paper, ignited it, and burned the paper into slag.
Wu Weiwei saw that those pieces of paper were just like ordinary paper. The white paper was burned by the flames, and the fire at the edges gradually devoured the inside, burning everything to ashes.
Chen Ling turned on the faucet and flushed the paper ashes into the sewer.
"It didn't react after being burned by the talisman paper. It is indeed ordinary paper." Chen Ling was puzzled. "But who put it in there?"
Wu Weiwei said: "Could it be that someone is playing a prank?"
"Maybe." To be on the safe side, Chen Ling pasted two yellow talismans in the bathroom before leaving.
Wu Weiwei looked at them eagerly, feeling itchy inside, and said shamelessly: "Brother Chen, can you give me two too? I'm always a little nervous, afraid that thing will come back to find me."
Chen Ling was very generous and took out a handful of them directly, "Take them all, I just need to draw a talisman."
Wu Weiwei put the yellow talisman in his pocket like a treasure: "Then I'll help you!"
Chen Ling narrowed his eyes, and suddenly asked with a smile: "Are you scared and afraid to sleep alone?"
"No, no, how is that possible?" Wu Weiwei waved his hands repeatedly and refused to admit that he had a psychological trauma caused by Huang Fugui.
Chen Ling raised his eyebrows at him, turned and walked to the bed, picked up his backpack and went to the desk by the window.
There is a forest outside the window, with a white stone path running through the forest. Under the warm light, a girl with a camera hanging on her chest is walking and taking pictures.
Wu Weiwei took a look and tapped the glass with his fingertips, "The girl I helped was her."
Chen Ling frowned, and suddenly said in a deep voice: "She looks wrong."
"Ah?" Wu Weiwei was a little at a loss and almost pressed his face against the glass. Unfortunately, the girl went up a few stone steps and her figure disappeared into the dense woods.
Chen Ling didn't bother to draw the talisman, and pulled Wu Weiwei away, bumping into Jiang Yu, who had unexpectedly been sitting in the living room.
The man looked up and asked, "Where are you going?"
Chen Ling explained everything in one go, emphasizing that it was the girl Wu Weiwei had saved.
Jiang Yu glanced at Wu Weiwei and took the coat on the armrest: "Let's go."
Chen Ling immediately abandoned Wu Weiwei and ran to stand shoulder to shoulder with the old ancestor.
Wu Weiwei curled his lips and complained in his mind: I always thought Brother Chen was a gentleman, but I didn't expect he was also a man who forgets his friends for the sake of a beautiful woman. Why are single guys so miserable
Chen Ling felt a little headache from the resentful look behind him, so he turned around and said, "Hurry up, if the girl is fine, let's go get a midnight snack."
Wu Weiwei quickly lowered his head and touched his belly.
No one had time to eat after being so busy before. The empty city plan had already made them hungry. Now that this was brought up, the hunger came back with a vengeance, and it was threatening to get worse.
Chen Ling was also very hungry. His stomach had been rumbling for a long time, and he swallowed instinctively.
Jiang Yu glanced at him, and like a magician, he took out a candy from his trouser pocket, peeled it open, and stuffed it directly into the young man's mouth.
The candy is strawberry flavored, with a sweet and sour taste and a strong fruity aroma.
The tip of his tongue pushed the candy to the side, and Chen Ling turned his head to look at him, "Where did it come from?"
"I brought this for you before I left." Jiang Yu stared at the road ahead, "Master said you'd get dizzy if you were in a car for too long, so he asked me to bring this for you."
Chen Ling was getting harder and harder to fool. He took two steps forward, turned his back, raised his head slightly, and stared straight into the man's eyes: "My family hasn't bought candy for a long time."
Jiang Yu avoided the young man's gaze, pursed his thin lips, reached out and pressed the young man's shoulder, turned him around and pushed him forward.
Making sure that he couldn't see his expression, the man curled his lips and said, "I drove to the city to buy it before you came back."
After getting a satisfactory answer, Chen Ling felt very happy. The corners of his mouth could not help but curl up. He took the man's arm, took a step forward and kissed his chin.
"Thanks."
Jiang Yu was stunned for a moment, a hint of unnaturalness flashed across his face. He reached out and hooked his hand around the young man's shoulder, then continued walking forward with his companions.
Chen Ling knew that the man was shy, so he smiled and turned to look over, but was blinded by a big hand.
The palm of that hand was very hot, and it was pressed tightly in front of his eyes. After a moment, it moved away a little, and stopped directly on top of his head, forcing his head to turn around.
Jiang Yu's voice was very serious: "Walk carefully and don't look around."
Chen Ling held back his laughter and deliberately dragged out the sound, saying "Oh" in a teasing manner.
Wu Weiwei discovered that the two of them were determined to show their affection regardless of whether there were people around or not.
He thought to himself, okay, it’s just that you have a new relationship, I’ll just watch you show off, and after a long time, when the new relationship becomes an old couple, I don’t believe you can still be as clingy as you are now!
The mountain path was very cold at night. Chen Ling and Wu Weiwei were both wearing short-sleeved shirts and shorts. When the cool breeze blew, they shivered with cold.
Jiang Yu sighed and put the coat he had been wearing on Chen Ling.
Chen Ling: "Thank you, Brother Jiang."
Jiang Yu hummed lightly, and his heart felt so soothed by the call of "Brother Jiang", as if he was wrapped in warm water.
Wu Weiwei: “…”
He felt that he should not have gone out, so he stamped his feet, exhaled a breath of cold air, quickened his pace and walked straight past the two people.
After quickening his pace, he soon found the girl in a forest.
The girl was not afraid of the cold at night, wearing a long skirt and a white knitted long shirt. When she heard footsteps, she turned around and found that it was someone she knew.
Wu Weiwei stood on the mountain trail and looked at the woman who ignored the sign and went into the vegetation protection area: "What are you doing in there?"
The woman was instantly upset by his tone. She stepped on a wild flower that was blocking her way and replied impatiently, "I'm going in to take pictures. What's wrong?"
Wu Weiwei put his hand on the sign: "Don't you see this is a wild plant protection area?"
The woman's eyes slid down and stopped at the words "Violators will be fined". Her face was burning: "I, I came in directly from the back, there is no such sign there."
Wu Weiwei didn't care whether she was telling the truth or not, "Now that you've seen it, shouldn't you come out?"
After saying this, I was stunned for a moment.
In the past, he would not mind his own business if he wanted to step on someone or not, or punish someone or not. But now he has started to meddle in other people's business.
The woman felt very embarrassed, snorted coldly, and said coquettishly: "Why are you so fierce? I'm out now!"
She lifted up the hem of her skirt and walked unsteadily. She didn't know what she was stepping on. Her foot twisted and her body fell uncontrollably to the right.
Wu Weiwei watched helplessly as the girl, who had just sprained her ankle in the afternoon, fell to the ground in the same posture he had seen in the women's shower room.
The woman clearly heard a snap and her whole body trembled in pain. Without caring about her image, she cursed, "Fuck! It's really him! This time my ankle is really sprained!"
She supported herself on the ground with both hands and turned to look at the culprit who caused her to fall.
It was a pair of ragged pants, revealing a thigh with rotten flesh and blackened bones!
"Ah!" She screamed and stood up from the ground, rushing towards the only other person in the field like crazy.
Wu Weiwei instinctively stretched out his hand to block the body that was rushing towards him, frowned and shouted: "What are you doing!"
"There's something! No, there's a leg! A leg!" the woman screamed, every word sounding broken.
At this moment, she no longer cared about whether she understood the situation or not. She avoided the young man's arm that was blocking her, went behind him, huddled up into a ball, and looked at the opposite side with fear.
Chen Ling was still far behind when he heard the screams in front of him. He quickly pulled Jiang Yu over and asked, "What happened?"
Wu Weiwei slapped away the woman's hand that was tightly grasping his shoulder and clothes, and walked forward, "Brother Chen, she said there was something in the bushes."
"What is that?" Chen Ling asked subconsciously, but without waiting for anyone to answer, he walked towards the bushes.
When the woman saw the two new people, her eyes lit up for a moment. She stood on tiptoe on her injured foot and looked at Chen Ling with lustful eyes.
Unexpectedly, the young man seemed to have his eyes on his head, and walked straight past her without even moving his eyes.
The woman was so angry that she subconsciously turned her gaze to the third man present.
Compared to those two blind men, this man exudes a mature and steady charm. Even if she doesn't look at his handsome face, her temperament alone is enough to make her yearn for him.
Such a person should have been discovered by her as soon as he appeared, why did she notice him only now
Without thinking too much, she frowned slightly, hissed, and bent down to support her ankle.
Her long hair fell from her shoulders and she tilted her head back. Her black hair covered both sides of her cheeks, making her face look one-third smaller and making her facial features more delicate.
In this position, she slowly moved in front of Jiang Yu and said softly, "Sir, can you help me? My feet hurt and I can't walk."
Jiang Yu stood there, his eyes fixed on Chen Ling. He blinked when the breeze blew past.
The woman's pretended pitiful expression almost failed to maintain, and she shouted again: "Sir, can you help me?"
On the other side, Wu Weiwei couldn't help but sneer, and muttered behind Chen Ling: "You sprained your ankle and still came out in the middle of the night. It seems that the fall was not severe enough."
Chen Ling didn't say anything. He was very confident in Jiang Yu, but he was a little curious about how a person as cold and aloof as his ancestor would refuse.
Noticing the gazes of the two people behind her, the woman bit her lip awkwardly and forced out a few tears.
She opened her red lips and was about to speak, but the man who had been silent suddenly lowered his eyes.
His eyelashes half drooped, his eyes moved around the woman's face, and a faint smile floated on his lips: "A dying person, no one can help you."
The woman's scalp tingled when she saw those eyes without a smile. She subconsciously took a step back and suddenly thought of the laughter she heard in the afternoon.
Her tearful face gradually stiffened, and then gradually cracked with fear. As if she had grasped a life-saving straw, she excitedly stepped forward and wanted to grab the man's arm, but her arm was empty.
She couldn't care less about being angry now. She tried to hide her panic and looked at Jiang Yu hesitantly: "Do you know something? Can you see something? Save me, I can give you money."
Jiang Yu: "I'm not short of money."
Woman: "Then, then I, I..."
If she doesn't want the money and has no interest in me, then what else can she offer in exchange
Jiang Yu walked past her and went straight towards Chen Ling.
Although Fengling Hot Spring Resort is located in the mountains, it has not caused any damage to the surrounding ecological environment. Except for the necessary facilities, all the vegetation here remains intact without any damage.
Therefore, the weeds on both sides of the mountain path grew so lush and dense that when people stood in it, the grass would reach their calves.
Chen Ling asked Wu Weiwei: "Where did she find it?"
Wu Weiwei was only concerned with blocking people at the time and didn't pay attention to the details. He glanced at the wooden sign behind him and said, "It should be nearby."
"Walk six steps east." Jiang Yu's voice suddenly sounded.
Chen Ling glanced at him and did as he was told. Sure enough, after the sixth step, he saw a leg that was almost invisible because of the dense grass.
The leg seemed to have been torn off from the body, and no other parts were found.
Chen Ling was a little hesitant and didn't push the bushes aside immediately. Wu Weiwei was even more so. He took three steps back as soon as he saw the tiptoes, and his sight happened to fall on the woman.
The woman was pale and trembling all over, as if the world was about to collapse.
He was curious and asked, "Brother Jiang, what happened to her?"
It's just a rejection, why do you look so depressed
Jiang Yu looked at him calmly, "I told her that he was dying."
Wu Weiwei: “…”
Chen Ling: “…” Few people can handle this kind of rejection.
But on second thought, how could our ancestor, such a steady person, deliberately scare people just to reject them? What he said was probably true.
Thinking of the black smoke-like death energy he saw on the woman's forehead, Chen Ling hurriedly asked, "You said that because you also saw that her forehead was black?"
Jiang Yu: "Yes and no."
He squatted down, pushed aside the grass with his slender fingertips, and remained calm when his eyes fell on the rotten thigh that had been mostly eaten by maggots.
"She has karma tied to her body." Jiang Yu said, "If she doesn't die, she will lose half her life."
Chen Ling squatted down, trying not to look at the heavy-flavored legs, "What cause and effect? Can you see it?"
Jiang Yu: “I can get a rough idea.”
Chen Ling was stunned.
In addition to those ghosts who have done great deeds in their lifetime and skip the reincarnation process and stay in the underworld to serve, there are also some ghosts who have behaved well while serving in hell and are left behind after serving their sentences.
The cause and effect that entangles a person is part of the secrets of heaven. Neither the former nor the latter should have the right to view it.
Chen Ling frowned. It seemed that the ancestor was not just an ordinary Yinchai with a high status, but at least a senior management.
