"It's a place that won't be disturbed. Close the door and you can completely separate them temporarily!”
Li Changtian held the steering wheel with one hand and rested his chin on the other. He thought hard and replied," Brother, I know a KTV. There is a big room. Most people don't know about that place. It should be very secretive."”
KTV？
I immediately thought of that noisy environment. A place where people sing and dance must be very noisy. It doesn't seem to meet my requirements at all!
He saw my doubt and continued to explain," Actually, I'm talking about the casino under the KTV. Only regular customers can use it, but no one goes there now, so it's abandoned. However, the room is still there.”
"Alright then, let's go there now!”I think it's not bad. The underground room is isolated from the outside world.
"Go now? What about the hospital?"
"We'll bring them to the hospital after this matter is over. Our mission isn't to treat them. Besides, the hospital probably can't treat their illness.”I'm telling the truth. At the hospital, the doctors would only know that they had mental problems, but they probably wouldn't be able to treat them.
With Li Changtian as a familiar person, it was indeed very convenient to do things. When we arrived at the place, the boss had already arranged everything. Changtian told him not to mention it to anyone, and the boss agreed readily. He personally took us to the abandoned underground casino.
I asked those lads to tie the fat director and Old Hong to the sofa for the time being. Then, I ordered everyone to leave, leaving only Changtian and me here. I also locked the casino door from the inside to prevent the outside world from disturbing.
The reason why I have to be so mysterious is because I need to perform the last chapter of Book of Luban, the Soul-urging Curse, on the director and Old Hong.
When I get a book, I like to flip to the front first and then directly to the end. The preface of Lu Ban's book was ordinary. Of course, I now knew that I was holding the second volume, so I didn't see the real preface. However, its last chapter was very interesting and aroused my interest.
The Soul-prompting Curse was to guide the target person or ghost into a situation that he had set up and make them voluntarily confess everything they knew. In this state, the words spoken must be true and could not be lied. However, to cast this spell, one had to be in a very quiet environment and not be disturbed by the outside world. Otherwise, if the spell was interrupted halfway, the target of the soul-summoning might completely fall into the illusion created and could not wake up again. In addition, there was a prerequisite for the execution of the Soul-prompting Curse, which was that the practitioner's cultivation had to exceed, or at least not lower than the other party's. If the other party's cultivation exceeded his, it was very likely that he would accidentally suffer a backlash, and then the gains would not make up for the losses.
As for the fat director and Old Hong, I've basically confirmed that they're only mortals, so their cultivation is definitely inferior to mine. Naturally, I can use them. The current environment wasn't a problem. It was just that it was my first time doing it, so it was inevitable that I would be unfamiliar with it. I was still relatively cautious.
After I was done with my preparations, I hung the two huge bells that Chang Tian had bought for me on both sides. I sat in the middle and rang them separately. After chanting the incantation, I began to execute it…
Next, I had a deep conversation with the two families who were tied up.
"Are you alive or dead?"
"A living person." The fat curator and Mr. Hong finally opened their mouths and answered in unison.
"Why are you chasing me?"
After a pause, they did not seem to understand the answer. After a while, the fat director said," A woman ordered me to chase after you.”
A woman?
This answer surprised me a little. I thought that the person who wanted to kill me so badly should be an evil ghost.
"Then the night before yesterday, were you the one who closed the morgue's iron door from the outside?”I was hinting at Old Hong.
"It's me." He immediately admitted.
"It was also ordered by a woman?"
"Yes." Mr. Hong continued to answer affirmatively.
The matter of the attack on me had been clarified, but there was still no clue about the funeral parlor. Thus, I asked," What secrets are hidden in the funeral parlor in the west of the city? It has clearly been abandoned for a long time. Why are you still working inside?”
Perhaps it was because they had asked too many questions or the answer was complicated, but the two of them snorted and did not answer. However, their eyes were still fixed on the bell in front of them. They should still be under the control of the Soul-prompting Curse.
I rang the bell again to deepen my control over them. I asked again before the director told me everything.
It turned out that a woman had indeed found them and forced them to guard the mortuary. She had also provided the dead bodies stored inside to something unknown. That thing would come in the middle of the night to absorb the remaining Yang qi from the dead. Because he was afraid that the matter would be exposed, he instructed the people in this funeral parlor to guard the body and keep this secret. Therefore, the entire funeral parlor in the west of the city was under his control.
As for the identity of the woman and that thing, they had no idea.
Finally, with the help of the Soul Urging Curse, I finally understood some things about the funeral parlor. The one who attacked us was indeed not the living person in front of us, but the woman who controlled their souls from behind. The woman's goal was to let that thing absorb the Yang qi and keep this secret.
If that was the case, then the woman behind the scenes was not a ghost, but someone from the Wicked Heavens. As for absorbing Yang Qi, it must be something that had too much Yin Qi, causing it to be unable to produce Yang Qi. For example, a Corpse King?
This kind of speculation made my head swell. I didn't expect that the legendary evil Corpse King and his Evil Sky organization were already so close to us in this place. Before this, we actually didn't know anything and almost lost Zi Yan and Li Xiangling.
That was about all I could learn from the fat curator and Old Hong. However, it could be considered as opening a hole in the chaos for me. I continued to use the Soul Summoning Spell to erase their memories of today, including their consciousness being controlled by the enemy. I hoped that they could return to their normal lives.
After doing all this, I ordered," Changtian, send them to the hospital for a checkup. If there's no problem, send them home!”
"Aren't you afraid that they will attack you again?”Li Changtian asked worriedly.
"It's fine. They're just ordinary people. They're also victims. Forget it!”
I walked out of the casino. The sunlight outside was still very bright and dazzling. What was more dazzling than the sun was the eyes of the woman who seemed to be spying on me behind the funeral parlor incident.
I didn't know where she was hiding. The enemy was in the dark, and we were in the light. It was indeed very disadvantageous. She could control the souls of others at any time, while I could only passively wait and accept. This outcome would probably be very difficult to achieve.
"Big Brother Su Li, I've already arranged everything. My men will settle the director and Old Hong. Shall we go to the hospital too?”He asked me.
"I won't go to the hospital. Just watch them settle it and take care of Xiangling. She's alone here, and her legs are inconvenient. In this place, she only knows the two of us. I'll entrust her to you to take care of!”
"Okay, but brother, why don't you go and see her? You know, Xiangling likes you very much!”Li Changtian said bluntly.
I patted his shoulder. I couldn't answer this question. It wasn't that I didn't want to see Xiangling, but I had more important things to do. Moreover, because I promised Zi Yan, I was already deliberately keeping a distance from Xiang Ling. However, I couldn't let Li Xiangling know about this. Otherwise, her misunderstanding of Zi Yan would be even deeper. Fortunately, Li Changtian was here. He accidentally took the compass and opened the ghost gate, but he followed me by accident. He listened to me and helped us with his connections and wealth. I was very grateful to him.
I took Li Changtian's car keys and got into the car alone. I had a driver's license, but I didn't drive much. I didn't have the money to buy a car, so my skills were rusty. However, this car is indeed not bad. The base is quite high and it's very stable to sit in. As long as I don't bump into it, it's quite comfortable.
On the streets of the city, I stepped on the accelerator and sped at the edge of the maximum speed limit. I was driving alone with the little ghost Jessica, who had no memories. I needed to clear my mind and calm down completely.
City H was indeed very small. After a while, I drove from the place I was at to the hospital and unknowingly came here again. I thought about it and decided to forget it. There was nothing much to say when I saw Xiangling. It was still a little awkward, so I started the car again and drove directly to the funeral parlor in the west of the city.
That woman controlled everyone in the funeral parlor to help that thing absorb Yang qi. It could be seen that Yang qi was very important to them. Those pitiful corpses had just died not long ago, yet they were once again ruined and turned into the shriveled appearance that I saw. Just thinking about it made me feel sorry.
Thus, I decided that no matter what, I had to first destroy the other party's plan to absorb Yang qi. I had to let the dead receive the respect they deserved!
So, I went back to the empty funeral parlor and used the key I got from the fat director to open the door of the mortuary. Then, I went in myself and covered the iron coffin from above, blocking the entrance to the tunnel.
Sitting on it, I kept asking myself, who was the woman who instructed the director and Old Hong? Did he really come from the Wicked Heavens? Was that thing that absorbed Yang Qi a Corpse King?
Also, since I've interfered with this matter, why didn't they show up to find trouble with me? Instead, they sent those two living people to use their flesh and blood to attack me in such a strange and useless way?
It seemed like I knew many secrets, but in reality, even more questions popped up and lingered in my mind.
But now, the most urgent thing is to help Zi Yan recover her memories. I can't accept the fact that a woman who has fused with my flesh and blood doesn't remember me. Now, I thought of a method that Second Uncle taught me. Perhaps I can give it a try.
