Chapter 554: Crying Goodbye, Quiet Face (II)
The ghost will be phaseless!
He's still here!
Judging from the sound of footsteps outside, the number of ghost soldiers accompanying him this time was also quite large.
"I'm going to lure them away. Xu Yuan resolutely got up, and Jia Luo grabbed him: "Are you crazy? How can you deal with so many of them alone?"
"If you don't do this, everyone will die!" Xu Yuan shook off his hand, "Jia Luo, you and Brother Ye's soul power haven't recovered yet, Zhiqi and Jingyan are girls again, I don't want to be the one who drags you back forever." I...... I just want you to show you, I'm actually pretty reliable!"
At the last moment, Ye Shuo and Gongsun Zhiqi also surrounded them. They know that this may be the only way, but they just can't stand by and watch a companion sacrifice for themselves!
Just when everyone was in a mess, Ye Jingyan suddenly walked straight past them, and when Ye Shuo noticed it, it was too late, and several people could only watch her step out of the alley and meet the search team led by the ghost general Wuxiang.
Inside and outside the alley, it was so quiet that it was audible for a while.
The woman who took the initiative to appear in front of her obviously surprised Wuxiang. He looked her up and down suspiciously, and frowned, "You were the only one just now?"
Ye Jingyan nodded slightly, and the dead qi around her body slowly rippled like ripples, this move naturally showed her identity as a ghost.
Wuxiang was also stunned at first: "Are you a ghost of the new death?" After the soul power was carefully scanned in her body, she said categorically: "No, it should have been more than ten years since she died, why didn't you come to the ghost world to report until now?"
Ye Jingyan replied respectfully: "Back to the adult's words, the little woman's soul was used by the Yang Warlock before this, and she was only able to get out today. ”
In the low alley, there is a hidden space composed of two adjacent walls, Ye Shuo and the others are curled up in it, the sound of the outside world is clear in the ears, Jia Luo is anxious, and he wants to rush out of the alley several times, but he is held down by several people on his side.
"Let me ask you again, you were really the only one over there just now?" Wuxiang said, glancing at his subordinates on his side, and immediately several ghost soldiers rushed into the alley, searching inside and out. During this time, Wuxiang always stared at Ye Jingyan, trying to find a flaw in her expression, but unfortunately, he was disappointed.
The searching ghost soldiers quickly rushed out again, bowed their heads and said, "My lord, I didn't find it." ”
"There's already a barrier in this area, and if anyone else is around, you won't be able to get out. ”
Wuxiang's eyes were indifferent, and he couldn't tell whether he was satisfied or disappointed by the result. After a long time, his wandering gaze condensed into a line on Ye Jingyan's body, and said coldly: "Very good, a large number of dead souls are missing today, and I suspect that it has nothing to do with you." Come with us. ”
Ye Jingyan's eyes were blank, and she raised her hands obediently, letting a pair of pitch-black shackles be heavily clasped on her wrists. Even though she was escorted away by many ghost soldiers, her face was still so light. It wasn't until she was about to turn the corner that she hesitated to turn her head and cast a glance toward the desolate corner. It was a sad glimpse that only her companions could understand.
"Jing Yan!" The team of ghost soldiers was already far away, and Garo almost crawled out of the narrow passage. His legs were weak, and he knelt at the entrance of the alley.
At the glance of Jing Yan just now, her eyes seemed to say: Jia Luo, you have to take care.
Jing Yan, who has always regarded herself as a trouble and always wants to get rid of it as soon as possible, has made such a big sacrifice for them at a critical moment! This is all her own fault, and she has hurt her. If it weren't for the fact that they wanted to fill their souls, they wouldn't have come to the ghost world, and they wouldn't be ...... now
"Garo, don't do this yet, let's go and see the interrogation process. Ye Shuo squatted down beside him, "Even in the ghost world, you must always pay attention to real evidence when handling cases." As long as they can't find conclusive evidence of Jing Yan's crime, maybe she will be acquitted?"
Although Ye Shuo tried his best to pretend to be full of confidence, everyone could hear the emptiness in this comfort. Now all the unfavorable factors point to Ye Jingyan, and she has a "criminal record", even if it is just to make a difference to the top, it is absolutely impossible for the other party to let go of the only suspect casually.
"Jing Yan, I must get you out!" Jia Luo slammed his head on the ground, and his fists slammed out blood in front of him.
……
Outside the interrogation room, the light of the soul bead flickered quietly, and several guards didn't know what was happening, and they had already received a palm on the back of their necks, and their bodies hung down softly.
Ye Shuo and Jia Luo looked at each other and smiled, stepped forward and stripped off the guards' clothes, and went to a secluded place to fully arm, and then came out of the four heroic ghost soldiers.
With this dress, the four of them traveled unimpeded all the way through the wide interrogation hall. Still, the ornate hall, with its rows of similar rooms, dazzled them for a while.
"Don't you think this operation is a little too smooth?" Turning the corner of another corridor, Xu Yuan lowered his voice, "Could the ghost general Wuxiang already know that we would come to save Jing Yan, so he specially laid a trap and waited for us to throw ourselves into the net?"
"As long as I can save Jingyan, even if it is Longtan Tiger's Den, I will break in!" Jia Luo, who has always been the calmest, has become the most impulsive of several people at this time.
In order to ease the atmosphere, Gongsun Zhiqi tentatively changed the topic: "Ye Shuo, did you cover our aura before?" Seeing that everyone looked inexplicable, he took the initiative to explain: "Those ghost soldiers broke in to search before, but they didn't notice us, I thought it was you ......"
Ye Shuo thought for a while, and quickly understood: "It should be Jingyan." She is a member of the ghost world, and should know more methods that we don't know. No wonder I sensed that her breath had weakened so much at once. ”
Garo's face became even more gloomy. And then, everyone also tacitly agreed not to speak. Silence, like a thick cloud, quietly permeated the four rooms.
"You guys!" I don't know how long they walked, and a ghost soldier standing guard shouted at them, "There is an interrogation site ahead, and outsiders are not allowed to enter!"
Everyone looked at each other, and a trace of joy quickly crossed their eyes. The destination was close at hand, which seemed to inject a shot in the arm for several people, and Ye Shuo immediately sacrificed the soul bead, which was radiant. After a series of lightning-like soul power collisions, on the bright red carpet, a ghost soldier had already fallen to the ground.
The four of them were quick with their hands and feet, and after hiding these ghost soldiers in the corner of the hall, they took their place. Deliberately leaning close to the interrogation room, looking in through the crack in the door.
On the opposite side is also a magnificent hall. The ghost will be in the main position, and the case is in front of the shocking wood, which is somewhat similar to the county government in the world. But the fact that his face was grim enough to fall off the ice ballast at this time was enough to terrify most prisoners.
"Ye Jingyan, according to the investigation, you are simply a fugitive from the ghost realm seventeen years ago! Everything you have done in the Yang Realm has already been clearly investigated, are you still unwilling to explain honestly?"
In the corner of the hall, Ye Jingyan's body was set up on a strange-looking torture instrument, her long hair was scattered over her shoulders, her white clothes were stained with blood, and her face was gloomy.
"Now that the adults have already found out, what else do you want me to explain?" Ye Jingyan smiled hard, "If you can explain, the little woman has already explained." Other than that, no comment!"
Wuxiang was not provoked by her, and said lightly: "As long as you explain the whereabouts of all the missing dead souls, as well as the purpose of you stealing a large number of dead souls, there can be an accomplice." As long as you cooperate, Ben will still be able to open the net. ”
Ye Jingyan's face showed her usual cunning again, which was the most common expression she had when she was about to make a fool of herself.
"In order to arrange a huge conspiracy to subvert the ghost world......" Ye Jingyan's eyes were mysterious, and she took turns sweeping over the faces of each of the ghost soldiers standing on both sides, and when everyone was nervously holding their breath, she giggled again: "Isn't this what adults want to hear?" ”
Wuxiang snorted coldly: "Stubborn." With a slight wave of his hand, the ghost soldiers in front of the torture rack turned the winch, and electric light entered from all directions, all of which converged into Ye Jingyan's body.
The electric snake flowed, sparks flew everywhere, forming a vortex of energy. Ye Jingyan screamed, her soul body weakened rapidly, and her body changed violently between virtual and real, and several times even turned into distorted ripples, as if she would be completely wiped out at any time.
It seems that it is a torture instrument specifically for souls. If the soul is a body of energy, then it will decompose the energy contained in it, giving the ghost the most extreme pain.
Ye Jingyan has never liked to show weakness easily, if it weren't for the fact that this torture really exceeded the limit of what she could bear, she would never have screamed so miserably in front of so many people.
"These ghosts are the same as the cool officials in the yang world, they can only bend into tricks!" Jia Luo was so angry and anxious, Ye Jingyan's every scream seemed to be tearing his heart, he just wanted to rush to the room immediately and fight to the death with the ghost soldiers in that room!
On the verge of Ye Jingyan's consciousness about to dissipate, Wuxiang waved his hand to stop the torture, and said coldly: "Prisoner Ye Jingyan, are you willing to confess now?"
Ye Jingyan was so weak that she couldn't even breathe, and her messy hair covered her pale face. And the lowered head still shook slowly.
Wuxiang's eyes were cold, and he didn't say anything more, and leaned back in his chair, as if he was about to end this interrogation.
"In this ghost world, there are many hard-mouthed people like you, and there will be time to spend with you one by one. Raising his eyes at the ghost soldier beside him, "Come on, go to hell." ”
Several ghost soldiers untied Ye Jingyan from the torture rack, and at this time her body was so paralyzed that she couldn't stand upright, and the ghosts dragged her almost all the way and escorted her out of the hall.
Jia Luo's eyes were cracked, and he watched Ye Jingyan's dying body float past him, if it weren't for Ye Shuo and Xuyuan holding him down, maybe he would have rushed up desperately.
The ghost is still in the room, the whole building is the enemy's territory, and there is a treaty between the two realms involved, so it is definitely not a wise idea to do it here. Ye Shuo and the others dragged all the way, and finally put Jia Luo out of the interrogation office.
"She's a ghost after all, even if you rescue her, she has no body now, where can she go?" In a remote alleyway, Ye Shuo tried hard to persuade Jia Luo, who was on the verge of collapse.
"Jing Yan didn't have any major faults before her death, as long as it is found out that she has nothing to do with the disappearance of the dead soul, they will naturally let her reincarnate at that time. If you go out now, you're hurting her!"
"By then, Jing Yan would have been tortured to death by them!" Jia Luo's eyes were bloodshot. At the same time, in his heart, he was also asking himself frantically.
She is a fugitive from the ghost realm, and she absorbs the soul of life in the yang world, no matter which realm the law is followed, it is a great sin! But is the initiator of all this really Jingyan? Why can those experimenters who make containers get away with it, but all the sins should be borne by Jingyan as a victim?
"When we return to the yang world, just burn more paper money for Jingyan. Ye Shuo sighed, "I hope those ghosts can also accept bribes like the jailers of the yang world." ”
Galo's movements paused slightly, but soon, he pressed his forehead against the wall in even more pain.
It wasn't until this moment that he realized that he knew very little about Jing Yan. Except that her name is Ye Jingyan, who has the same birth date as herself, where she was originally from, what she likes and what she doesn't like, she doesn't know anything.
There is another point, although no one says it explicitly, but Garo just knows.
The ghost world will thoroughly investigate the disappearance of a large number of dead souls, and this sin must be recognized. If there was no Ye Jingyan, a suspect who voluntarily surrendered, Wuxiang would definitely strictly block the entrances and exits everywhere, and a few of them would not be able to get out at that time. Once twelve hours have passed, they can never return to the flesh. That's why she chose to sacrifice herself so decisively......
Jing Yan, Jing Yan, since more than ten years ago, they just had this wrong bond, and their existence is like her debt. And she is her own salvation.
Even if he and Gongsun Zhiqi get together in the future, in his heart, there will always be a Ye Jingyan, who is his relative. And he believes that Gongsun Zhiqi will also understand.
At this time, she stood beside her and silently held his hand. A kind of warmth gradually flowed from the palm to the body, and the chill that rose from the depths of the soul seemed to be less desperate at this moment.
"Since there is no way to do anything about Jing Yan, we ...... Let's take this opportunity to leave as soon as possible?" Xu Yuan looked at the two people who were with him with some envy, and said after a while.
"No, I still have a place I want to go. Ye Shuo turned his head and showed a chilling smile, "It's a rare opportunity, and now you have this ghost soldier...... Would you like to go on another adventure with me?"
If you want to truly determine a person's life and death, you can only have a chance in the ghost world.
That man...... Luo Dixing, what his life and death were after falling into the Yin Wind Stream has always been a piece of heart disease in Ye Shuo's heart.
Now that you have arrived in the ghost world, how can you miss the ...... that records the time of death of all people?
