In the evening, outside the abandoned iron ore mine on the outskirts of the city, Yanyu drove slowly. There were weeds as tall as one person everywhere. The car drove past with a 'click, click' sound, and there was no one figure in the desolate surroundings. One or two stray cats and dogs ran through the weeds. However, from the scale of the mine and the abandoned buildings around it, we can still see the glory of the year.
He drove the car into the mine and parked in a fairly large open space. Yan Yu got out of the car, and Ling Huaan opened the door and got out of the car. Ling Huaan looked around, and there were silhouettes of human figures floating around. They were all wandering ghosts, unconscious, wandering here all day long. Because there is no cause and resentment, they will not cause any damage to human beings.
Ling Huaan looked around and saw that there was a place to the north of him that was surrounded by resentment. He raised his finger in that direction and asked, "Yanyu, can I go there?"
"Yes, there is a mine. But it's a bit far away, and it's overgrown with weeds, so it's not easy to walk. I'll go and take a look. You stay here and wait."
"No, there is resentment there, and it's too dangerous for you to go by yourself." Ling Huaan took out the cow's tears from his pocket and said, "You put him on your eyelids, and we'll go over together."
Yanyu took the vial containing the cow's tears, dripped a drop, and applied it to his eyelids. When he opened his eyes again, the surroundings changed, and there were ghosts with pale faces everywhere. Even though Yanyu had made psychological preparations, he couldn't help but be taken aback.
Wang Lei on the side greeted with a smile: "Mr. Yan, we finally meet."
Yan Yu knew Wang Lei. After all, Wang Lei's case was solved by him. He curled his lips and nodded.
"Is it okay?" Ling Huaan asked with concern.
"Okay, let's go, I'll help you." Yan Yu took a deep breath and calmed down his fast heartbeat. He held Ling Hua'an's wrist and walked beside him, reminding him of the path under his feet.
About ten minutes later, the two of them came to the entrance of the mine, and they looked inside to see a dark area, like the big mouth of a giant beast, which made people feel uneasy. At the same time, the sky gradually darkened.
Yanyu took out his flashlight, looked inside, picked up a stone on the ground and threw it in, listening to the echo of the stone when it landed, and said, "This mine is very deep."
"Is the paper charm I gave you still there?"
"Yes, hang it around your neck all the time."
Ling Huaan nodded and said, "Don't be afraid no matter what happens later, I'm here."
Looking at Ling Huaan, Yan Yu raised the corner of his mouth and said, "Okay."
The two and one ghost slowly approached the mine. The sound of "woo woo" became louder as they went deeper and deeper, like a woman crying beside her ear, gloomy and terrifying.
Sensing that Yanyu's hand holding his wrist was getting colder and colder, Ling Huaan frowned slightly, paused, took out a piece of warm jade from his arms and handed it to him, saying, "Keep this close to your body."
Yan Yu took Nuan Yu, and the temperature surprised him. He put Nuan Yu back in Ling Hua'an's hands and said, "I'm not cold."
"Just leave it there for the time being, and return it to me after I go out. Don't worry, my physique is special, and it won't hinder me here, but you can't, the cold and the yin will make you sick."
"real?"
Ling Huaan said helplessly, "When did I lie to you?"
"Okay." Yan Yu took the Nuan Yu and put it close to him. He was so cold that he was shivering just now, but he felt much better.
The two walked forward. Ling Huaan urged, "Yanyu, if you feel unwell, don't bear it. You must tell me in time. My eyes can't see. I don't want you to have an accident because of this, understand?"
"Okay." Yanyu felt warm in his heart, and his body also warmed up.
The two of them walked together for almost half an hour. Ling Huaan suddenly stopped and looked straight ahead. There was yin qi lingering there. In the darkness, a woman wearing a gray maternity dress was hanging upside down on the top of the cave, staring coldly. them.
"Tick tock", red blood dripped from the woman's body, quickly gathered on the ground, quickly dyed the entire cave red, the original black became blood red, and the bright red blood was bubbling, like boiling water, the blood bubbles fried Kai, turned into thousands of red snakes, they swallowed the letter, just like the woman on the top of the cave, staring at the three of them coldly.
Wang Lei shrank behind Ling Huaan in fear, and stammered, "Old... Boss, there are so many snakes!"
"This is an illusion, don't be afraid." Ling Huaan kept staring at the female ghost at the top of the cave.
"But... but I... I am most afraid of snakes!" Wang Lei's voice began to tremble.
"Give me the soul bell, you can't see anything when you close your eyes."
Wang Lei handed Ling Huaan the Soul Destroyer Bell, and quickly closed his eyes, still muttering in a low voice, "This is an illusion, this is an illusion..."
A sharp cry suddenly sounded, and the small snakes that were staring at them suddenly stood upright and shot towards Ling Huaan and the three of them. Yan Yu took a step forward subconsciously, blocking Ling Hua'an, but was pulled behind by Ling Hua'an and said, "Stay honest!"
Ling Huaan shook the soul-repelling bell. Between his lips, he chanted the incantation silently. A faint light that was visible to the naked eye lit up. The faster the bell shook, the brighter the light. Covered up. Those blood-red snakes slammed into the mask and made a "呲呲呲" sound. In the blink of an eye, they turned into a puff of blue smoke and disappeared. The surrounding blood red slowly disappeared, and the female ghost on the top of the cave let out bursts of shrill screams. The sharp nails kept scratching the top of the cave, not only leaving deep scratches, but also emitting a 'creaky' horror. sound.
"Who are you, and why are you trying to kill me?" The female ghost's sharp voice seemed to be far away, and those blood-red eyes stared at Ling Huaan with hatred.
Ling Huaan said lightly, "There is no evil on you, it's too late to look back now."
"The injustice of my death... The injustice of death, I want my child... I want my child!" The voice of the female ghost became more and more piercing, piercing the eardrums of the two.
"Your child is dead, and you still have a chance to be reincarnated."
"Dead... dead..." The female ghost's blood-red eyes flashed dazedly, and then she left blood and tears, the light of hatred flickered, and she said grimly: "I want revenge! Revenge! As long as I absorb your yang energy, mine The power will increase greatly, and you can leave this cave and seek revenge for them!"
"What if you get revenge? Your child will not be resurrected, and you will miss the chance to be reincarnated because of the murder."
"I don't care! I died so miserably, my child died so miserably, I must take revenge, I must take revenge!"
"Vengeance is okay, but you don't do it. There are rules in the world, and the rules in the world are laws. I will help you find out the truth, find the murderers, and bring them to justice. This will not only avenge you, but also keep It's your chance to be reincarnated, isn't it?"
The female ghost looked at Ling Huaan vigilantly and asked, "Why do you want to help me, who are you, and what is your purpose?"
"I'm a ghost man. Of course, it's not free to help you. You need to pay me."
"I'm dead, how can I pay you?"
"You are dead, but the things you left in the world are still there. How about it, do you want to cooperate with me, or do you want to go your own way and take revenge?"
A struggling look flashed on the face of the female ghost, and she said, "Can you really help me find the murderer?"
Ling Huaan chanted the spell silently, released Shen Xin, and said, "She was killed like you. The murderer is the same. We have locked this person. As long as we find evidence, we can bring him to justice."
"You... you are the same as me?" The female ghost looked at Shen Xin, and the vigilance on her face relaxed a little.
"Well, besides us, there were also three sisters who were also killed. One of them was named Su Meiqi. Like you, she wanted to take revenge and killed people. In the end, not only did she fail to take revenge, she was also arrested by the police. Hell, so you have to figure it out."
The female ghost looked at Shen Xin silently, as if thinking about the authenticity of her words. After a long while, she sighed faintly and said, "Now I don't seem to have any other choice but to cooperate with you."
Ling Hua'an breathed a sigh of relief, and in order to show his sincerity, he put away the soul bell, and the mask around them also disappeared.
Seeing this, the female ghost floated down from the top of the cave, and in the blink of an eye, she was already in front of several people. The pale complexion, blood-red eyes, bruised lips, sharp fingernails, and the bloody wound on his abdomen, the intestines flowing outside, completely matched the ghost in Yanyu's imagination. Although he was mentally prepared, his stomach Still physiologically churning.
Ling Huaan looked at the female ghost and asked, "Do you still remember your name?"
The female ghost shook her head and said, "I lost all the memories of my life."
"Then where is your body?"
The female ghost turned to look not far away and said, "It's buried under that pile of rocks."
"I will temporarily put you in the bell, and when the case is investigated, your grievances dissipate, and I will let you go to the underworld for reincarnation. If you think of anything during this period, you can tell me directly, I can hear it."
The female ghost nodded and said, "Okay."
Ling Huaan took out a new bell and put the female ghost inside, and Shen Xin returned to the bell. Ling Huaan turned to look at Yanyu and said, "Let's go."
Under the guidance of Yan Yu, the two of them walked out of the mine and came to the front of the car. Ling Huaan took out his mobile phone and called Jiang Chengyan. The call was quickly connected, and Jiang Chengyan's voice came from the receiver, "Hello, Hua An, are you looking for me?"
Ling Huaan said bluntly, "Yanyu and I came to the abandoned iron mine and found the body of a pregnant woman. Bring someone here."
Jiang Chengyan asked nervously, "Then you... are you injured?"
A smile appeared in Ling Hua'an's eyes, and he said, "No, come here, we'll go first, and we have to go to the crematorium later."
"Well, I'll take someone over here."
Ling Huaan thought for a while and said, "Team Jiang, if we leave, how would you explain who found the body? Would it be a little embarrassing?"
Jiang Chengyan said with a wry smile, "This is indeed a bit difficult to explain."
"Then I'll handle this matter. Don't come over yet. Come back after the police call."
Jiang Chengyan asked curiously, "What can you do?"
"We'll discuss in detail when you're done with this case and you come to pay me."
Jiang Chengyan's face became hot, he looked around in a guilty conscience, and whispered, "Didn't I give the reward?"
The smile in Ling Hua'an's eyes gradually deepened, and he said, "I charge a lot. It's just a deposit, and the balance is still charged."
Jiang Chengyan blushed and whispered, "Is it still so clear between us?"
"Brother, let's settle the account."
"Then... all right. What's the final payment?"
"you guess."
The author has something to say:
