Quick Travel: Passing Through the Bloody World
Chapter 243 Becoming a Ghost in a Supernatural Story 26
Pei Yu and Cen Shenyi pieced together some general information about the person behind the scenes based on what the weasel said.
The weasel originally wanted to be worshipped so that it could become an immortal. After the person who invited it set up an tablet and set up a hall, it realized that the person who invited it was not a good person.
The man was a ghost catcher, but he had evil intentions and was studying the method of immortality. So he set up a magic circle to attract wild ghosts.
After inviting them, she used threats and bribes to make these wild spirits help her absorb the life span of others so that she could achieve immortality.
But not all of the wild monsters she invited cooperated with her, and there were always some who would fight to the death with her.
This weasel is one of the wild monsters that has reached a mutually beneficial cooperation with the ghost hunter.
The ghost hunter wants the fate of the person, and it wants the luck to help it become an immortal. With the cooperation of the two parties, they will not bear the consequences of karma, and can get what they want.
In just these few short years of cooperation, the weasel, who had only practiced for a few decades, had already reached the level of a hundred years of cultivation.
Gradually, this kind of cooperation could no longer satisfy its desire to attain enlightenment and become an immortal.
So it begins to look for other believers, who give offerings and it gives back in return.
This mutually beneficial approach can eliminate the law of cause and effect.
Cen Shenyi raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and thought to himself that this weasel had learned the right thing from that ghost catcher.
Ghost hunters will charge a certain amount of money no matter who asks for help, and the reward can be big or small. In local dialect, it is called "incense money".
With this reward, the ghost hunter is helping others instead of actively solving the mystery. It can also be regarded as a way to eliminate karma and prevent harm to himself.
The amount of the reward depends on the size of the request.
This ghost catcher who uses formations to summon wild spirits is an inner sect disciple. He understands this reason, so naturally he learns quickly by summoning wild spirits.
The last time the weasel possessed the middle-aged man was by accident.
When it was about to look for its next target, it happened to meet a woman. The woman's soul exuded the aura of death, and it wanted to use this to seduce the woman to offer her luck to it.
However, he never imagined that the woman was a ghost hunter who had just been seriously injured by an evil ghost. He crashed into the ghost hunter and fought a life-and-death battle with her. The soul had just possessed the woman, and before it could be controlled well, the taxi driver somehow took advantage of the opportunity and entered this illusion.
The ghost hunter desperately crashed into the taxi, and the weasel's soul was unstable and could only drill into the middle-aged man's body.
Unexpectedly, this middle-aged man was discovered by He Qin from the Investigation Bureau and brought back to the bureau.
By chance, he met Pei Yu and Cen Shenyi.
This incident seems too much of a coincidence, so I don't know whether the theory of cause and effect has been eliminated or not.
Unfortunately, the ghost hunter was very cautious. The weasel only knew that the place where he was worshipped was a dark little room, but he didn't know where that place was.
After Pei Yu and Cen Shenyi understood the matter of the weasel, Cen Shenyi handed over all the people who were involved in the murder mentioned by the weasel to the ghost hunters of the Investigation Bureau for handling. Then he handed over the soul that the weasel and Pei Yu brought back to the senior management of the Investigation Bureau to assess how to deal with it.
Pei Yu left behind a piece of soul fragment that he had previously extracted from the weasel's soul body to help find the location of the mastermind behind the scenes more easily.
The yellow talisman in Cen Shenyi's hand was almost ready, and Jiang Heyun and Xie Zeyu were also fully prepared.
After the two parties met, Pei Yu threw the weasel's soul fragment in his hand to Xie Zeyu.
After Xie Zeyu took it, his face was full of confusion.
Pei Yu said: "You are a descendant of the royal family. You have blood suppression and the soul fragments to activate this thing. You are the most suitable."
Xie Zeyu: “…”
No wonder Pei Yu asked him to go to the imperial mausoleum with him last time. It turned out that he wanted him to help with the hard work after taking out the things.
Jiang Heyun pushed the frame of his glasses, pinched Xie Zeyu's shoulder, and comforted the angry Millennium Ghost King.
Only then did Xie Zeyu retract his grinning expression and honestly used his ghost energy to feel the energy fluctuations in the soul fragments.
The faint fluctuations spread quietly from near to far. Xie Zeyu's ghost energy that was originally activating the soul fragments was relatively stable, but soon, his black ghost energy began to fluctuate violently.
Immediately, a look of pain emerged on Xie Zeyu's face as he closed his eyes. Crack-like blood marks appeared on his originally handsome face, and blood dripped down.
Jiang Heyun frowned and there was a hint of worry in his eyes.
Before he could take a step forward, a figure in red brocade clothes came into his sight.
In the empty meeting room of the Investigation Bureau, the red brocade clothes were as dazzling as the sunset.
The moment the red ghostly energy appeared, it soothed the indescribable feeling of oppression in the air.
The black energy surrounding Xie Zeyu gradually calmed down, and then he suddenly coughed up a mouthful of black blood, and his figure swayed and fell to the ground.
Jiang Heyun took a step forward and caught Xie Zeyu's body. Xie Zeyu leaned on Jiang Heyun's shoulder for a while, looked at Pei Yu and said, "Thank you."
Pei Yu said: "What did you see?"
Xie Zeyu fell silent, with a more ferocious look in his eyes and black energy swirling around him.
"New hatred and old grudges." Xie Zeyu said gritting his teeth.
After a while, Xie Zeyu threw the soul fragment to Pei Yu and stood up with the help of Jiang Heyun.
Xie Zeyu said coldly: "Pei Yu, do you still remember the Taoist priest who suggested to seal your soul beside Emperor Mingde?"
Pei Yu searched through his original body's memory for a long time before he remembered such a person.
But, that was a man.
"You remember?" Xie Zeyu wiped the black blood from the corner of his mouth and said, "And the witch who set me on fire, cast witchcraft, and imprisoned my soul was also him. I saw it."
At the end of his speech, Xie Zeyu's voice was suppressed and full of pain.
After thousands of years of torture, he finally found his enemy. His eyes seemed to be filled with raging rage, but he tried his best to suppress it.
"My soul is with him."
“I want it back.”
After Xie Zeyu finished saying this, he spat out another mouthful of black blood. It was obvious that the action just now had caused him harm.
Jiang Heyun nodded to Pei Yu and Cen Shenyi, and helped Xie Zeyu to the inner room of the conference room to rest.
Cen Shenyi glanced in that direction and held Pei Yu's hand.
Pei Yu turned his head and saw Cen Shenyi's slightly red eyes.
"Why are you crying?" Pei Yu pinched Cen Shenyi's cheek with his fingertips.
Cen Shenyi held Pei Yu's hand with his other hand and said, "Pei Yu, does it hurt?"
It turns out that he is not just a lonely soul for a thousand years.
It turns out that he is the obsession itself.
He endured that broken, incomplete soul and the pain like being skinned and having his tendons pulled out for thousands of years.
Pei Yu felt the slight tremor transmitted from Cen Shenyi's fingertips, lowered his eyes and looked at him and said, "It doesn't hurt."
"lie."
Pei Yu chuckled: "Then Ah Yi will coax me?"
Cen Shenyi answered him with action.
He held Pei Yu's cheek, turned his affection into a gentle breeze, kissed his cheek, and expressed it between his lips and teeth.
