"If you insist on intervening in this matter, I will personally send you to the underworld!"
She sneered, then stood up and walked out, but I could guess that this explanation was more than just a simple talk.
After all, she had already taken action last night, but her attitude really made it difficult for me to tell whether it was for the sake of my life or...
At six o'clock in the evening, I took a taxi and returned to Hao's house. Lei Yinsen was standing on the third floor balcony. When he saw me walking into the small courtyard, he asked me condescendingly where I had been.
"What's the catch?"
I didn't respond to him. To be honest, after listening to her words, my heart was inevitably shaken.
"We'll spend the night in this room tonight. We'll discuss the details later."
I nodded, said no more, and walked all the way to the room where Lei Yinsen was on the third floor.
"How's it going? What did you find out?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he sat down on the sofa, picked up the water on the table and took a few gulps.
I was so frightened by being "threatened" just a moment ago that I took a few gulps of cold water and it was as if I was calming down.
"He only asked us to seek an answer, and did not mention anything else."
I nodded and asked him: "Why did you ask him that question?"
"Which one?"
I couldn't help but roll my eyes at him. What I just said before was completely forgotten so quickly.
"You asked him how to take revenge, right?"
Hearing this, Lei Yinsen nodded and said, "I just don't want him to do stupid things. If I can know his plan in advance, I can avoid something that won't happen."
"Aren't you a Taoist priest?"
I joked half-smilingly.
"how?"
He was slightly startled, obviously his interest was aroused by my words, and he motioned to continue.
"Since you are worried that he will do something stupid, otherwise we will not investigate. In this way, even if something happens to him in the future, it will have nothing to do with us."
"You are the one who is being investigated, and you are the one who is not being investigated." He glanced at me, and then asked, "Who did you see when you went out just now?"
I glanced at him and thought, through my words, he got a clue.
I didn't answer this question, and threw out a second option, which was to directly find the dead ghost, then accept him, and pretend that nothing happened.
Pass.
"Collect ghosts?"
My words made him slightly startled, and he glared and said, "Although I am a Taoist priest, I have never collected a soul.
I nodded, and I believed this sentence. After all, judging from the scene last night, I could guess about eight or nine points.
Maybe he doesn't know how to catch ghosts at all.
Of course, this idea was firmly suppressed in my heart. How could he know how powerful he was without taking action?
From then on, I naturally would not be the first to ask about such an uncertain matter.
"Aren't you a disciple of Taoist Pei?"
In my opinion, since he is a disciple of a Taoist priest, catching ghosts should be the most basic skill. Is it possible that this guy deliberately hides his strength, or does it mean that he has no other skills except setting up formations?
"There are people who can catch ghosts. Now I am more suitable for setting up formations."
"who?"
I caught the most crucial part of this sentence, and then asked: "Since you can't catch ghosts, what are we doing here?"
"Didn't you say that you asked me to come here just to communicate with the soul?"
What a joke, if he had the ability to catch ghosts, why would he be beaten so badly by a woman?
It was only then that I seemed to understand that what Du Hunchai said was probably true. If I continued to get involved, I would lose my life sooner or later.
However, after I thought about it carefully, if I leave now, it will not only affect my credibility, but more importantly, I will see that the 50,000 yuan in hand will be wasted.
"Yes, that's what I said."
Following his words, I did not deny that that was indeed what I said to him at that time.
However, his behavior since arriving made me mistakenly believe that he was here to catch ghosts.
"Ever since you came back just now, I have always felt that something is wrong with you. What happened?"
Finally, he discovered something was wrong. Perhaps, I was immersed in the scene of being threatened before. Then, I couldn't help but ask him: "That woman last night, if you fight her, are you sure you can win?"
This question is very important, and at the same time, it is also related to whether we can continue to get involved.
"I just said that I am good at formations."
"In other words..." I thought for a moment and then asked: "If you set up a good formation, you can compete with her?"
"Since you mentioned her, let me ask you, who is she?"
"Is it important?"
I was a little hesitant, wondering whether I should tell him that, in fact, the woman last night was a soul-transferring messenger from the underworld.
Of course, if I knew everything about him, I would naturally tell him about the underworld without reservation.
As of now, nothing is known except his name and who he studied with. Of course, this still needs to be confirmed. Other than that, nothing is known.
Facing such a person, how should I reveal her identity?
"How can I arrange the formation if I don't know the basics?"
He frowned, presumably because he felt a little unhappy about something I had hidden, but he kept it in his heart.
"Then you set up a formation to catch people, and at the same time, set up a formation to catch ghosts."
After much hesitation, I still hid it and came up with a way to get the best of both worlds.
If she was involved as a human being, then the formation to catch people would be effective, and conversely, the formation to catch ghosts would be equally effective.
"Do you know how much energy it takes to set up a formation?"
He looked at me coldly, and I could feel that this was not just a simple look.
"Then use all your energy to arrange two."
She could not truthfully reveal her identity to him, and at the same time, she also had to ensure that this matter went smoothly. In this way, after thinking about it again and again, she decided that this idea was indeed worth a try.
"Do you know what a ghost is?"
He did not refute my proposal, but asked this question.
"Ghosts who do things that are harmful to nature and evil will be called evil ghosts."
"Is that all?"
He glanced at me and couldn't help laughing.
"how?"
I was slightly startled, wondering what his smile was.
In my opinion, all evil ghosts and evil ghosts are called evil ghosts and evil ghosts only because they have committed bad things that are harmful to nature. As for other reasons, I don’t know.
"Evil ghosts and fierce ghosts are not of the same type. The fate of evil ghosts is that they can only have the opportunity to be reincarnated by entering the underworld."
"So, where's the ghost?"
As soon as these words came out, I was quite curious and couldn't help but ask.
