A passerby in a horror movie

The room was rather messy, and it looked like it hadn't been lived in for a long time, but the furniture was mostly still in good condition.

As soon as Li Haotian stepped inside, he sensed a faint yin energy. This yin energy was somewhat different from the yin energy of the vengeful ghosts he had encountered before, but Li Haotian still needed to investigate it carefully to find out the specifics.

Li Haotian quickly channeled his magic to the corner of the living room, and sure enough, he saw a faint ghostly figure dressed in white walking in from outside the living room, as if it had just returned.

"Hey Li, how did you know I was going to film a place?"

Photographer James Cornman was curious when he saw Li Haotian walk straight to the corner of the living room.

His employer, Yoshiharu Hashimoto, had him film in this corner.

Before he could even set up the camera, Li Haotian had already pinpointed the location. He couldn't help but wonder if Li Haotian knew something.

"It's simple, because this place is haunted."

Li Haotian turned around and grinned at him, a very sinister smile.

James was startled by Li Haotian and quickly backed away.

"Li, don't scare me. There's no ghost here. It's impossible."

James felt that Li Haotian was trying to scare him, so he quickly shouted.

"Hehehe, you don't believe me? I have a way to let you see me."

Li Haotian spoke to the photographer, James.

This guy knows Yoshiharu Hashimoto, and Li Haotian also wants to get to know Yoshiharu Hashimoto through him, so it's necessary to use some means to convince him.

The most direct method was to let James see the little boy's ghost.

After saying that, Li Haotian took out a whisk from his backpack, channeled his magic power, and flicked it towards the photographer's eyes.

Instantly, a thin film of magic formed in James's eyes.

James felt a little itchy from the whisk and was puzzled. He was about to ask Li Haotian why he did this.

Suddenly he turned his head and saw the ghost of the little boy squatting in the room.

"Oh, shit!"

James was startled and quickly backed away.

Seeing a ghost so realistically and directly for the first time, even James, who is usually quite brave, was terrified.

After all, even if he didn't believe it before, he had at least watched horror movies and heard ghost stories, and knew how scary this thing was.

James quickly retreated to Li Haotian's side, which calmed him down.

"Li, how did you do that? Are you an exorcist? My God, I actually saw a ghost."

James only realized what was happening after seeing Li Haotian.

Li Haotian must have some special ability to make him see ghosts. His excitement overcame his fear, and he quickly asked Li Haotian for details.

"Hehe, I'm not an exorcist, but a Taoist priest, though in essence we're pretty much the same."

Li Haotian said with a smile.

"Taoist priest, you're a Taoist priest, I know, I know, you're the one who doesn't eat beef, right!"

Upon hearing Li Haotian's answer, James quickly nodded in reply.

He had spent a considerable amount of time on Taiwan and had some understanding of its customs and traditions. He had met people from Buddhism, Taoism, and even other religions, but only had a superficial understanding of them.

"What are you going to do now? Are you going to destroy this ghost?"

Knowing Li Haotian's abilities, James became bolder and stood beside him, speaking in a somewhat obsequious manner.

"I don't plan to do that for now; I need to look into it first."

Li Haotian shook his head; the ghost of this little boy gave him a very different feeling.

As they were talking, the little boy suddenly looked up.

A thread emanated from between his eyebrows and instantly connected with James's eyebrows. He then stood up and was about to reach out to attack James.

"Li, Li, he moved."

Seeing this, James was startled again and quickly hid behind Li Haotian.

If Li Haotian hadn't given him a bit of courage, he would have already fled in panic.

"Is this the Mysterious Silk?"

Li Haotian composed himself and looked at the long, thin, eerie thread with great curiosity.

In the movie, the little boy ghost kills people in a certain pattern: if you make eye contact with him, a ghostly thread will appear, and then you will be killed by the little boy.

Of course, even without eye contact, if he holds a grudge, you could still be killed.

Li Haotian naturally couldn't just stand by and watch James be killed by the little boy.

So he used his magic to take the whisk and wave it at the little boy, Li Yaoxi.

"Om."

Instantly, a faint golden light shot towards Li Yaoxi, slamming him directly into the wall.

The mysterious thread connecting James was also severed.

Strangely, the little boy's soul was not badly damaged and did not make any sound.

After standing up again, it remained squatting by the bedside, motionless, unlike ordinary ghosts.

"What a weak ghost! It has such a solid soul, but it has no offensive power and can hardly even make a sound."

Li Haotian noticed that Li Yaoxi's soul was very weak.

It was completely different from the vengeful ghosts he encountered in other worlds.

Aside from using the silkworm silk and personally strangling people, Li Yaoxi has no other attack methods.

It can't even mobilize a large amount of yin energy to create a ghost wall effect, which shows it's really very weak.

So Li Haotian became bolder.

He amplified his magic and used his whisk to bind Li Yaoxi.

Li Yaoxi was bound by the whisk. He struggled incessantly, but could not break free and could only stare at Li Haotian.

However, his staring was useless. Before Li Yaoxi's strange threads could connect with Li Haotian, they were melted by the magic power on the whisk.

"Hmm? Just an ordinary wandering spirit?"

Li Haotian carefully examined Li Yaoxi's soul and found that Li Yaoxi was just an ordinary wandering soul and had not transformed into a vengeful ghost.

However, there was a power within his body no less than that of a vengeful ghost, residing inside his soul, a situation that completely baffled Li Haotian.

It's not that Li Haotian lacks skill.

This was truly the first time he had ever seen such a situation.

Let alone him, even if Uncle Nine came over, he would have to study it for a long time to figure out why.

Helpless, Li Haotian had no choice but to give up for the time being and turned to James instead.

"Li, what's wrong? Is there anything I can help you with?"

After witnessing Li Haotian's abilities, James became even more respectful towards Li Yaotian.

Seeing Li Haotian staring at him, James quickly asked,

"Heh, James, you were just cursed by a ghost."

I need to examine your soul. Of course, you can disagree, but if anything happens afterward, don't blame me for not helping.

Li Haotian told a lie and threatened James.

He did want to examine James's soul and body, but he couldn't tell him directly that his face was dark.

Even if I explained, James wouldn't understand. It's better to say something he's familiar with, like a curse, to scare the guy into obeying.
