Chapter 21 The Legend of the Ghost Forest, Classification of Table Lamps
The ghost forest is the small forest that Wu Ming walked through when I came to Tiandao University on the first day I came to Tiandao University.
On the west side of this grove is the boulevard, and further west of the boulevard is the campus of the general college. To the east of the woods is the dormitory building for the students of the Special College, and further east is the nine-story Special College teaching building.
This grove occupies an area the size of nearly two football fields from south to north, completely separating the two faculties of Tiandao University.
The name "Ghost Forest" was given by the students of the Ordinary College of Tiandao University, and it is said that the ghost forest first came to Tiandao University, and the designers of Tiandao University took a fancy to the location of this forest in the first place, so they built the school like this.
There are many legends about the Ghost Grove, the most popular being that this grove was used to separate students from the two colleges.
If an ordinary student violates the rules and wants to enter the territory of a special college, he must pass through this forest. However, if you enter it and walk less than 10 meters, you will be entangled in branches and vines that have jumped out of nowhere. When the special students walked in, they were calm as usual.
Of course, if the students of the special academy bring something out that they shouldn't bring, the birds and beasts that inhabit the woods will attack them in groups. I heard that there was once a student who did not believe in evil and came out with a bag of unjust ghosts, but he was pecked alive by dozens of birds in the ghost forest and died, and all the flesh on his body was gnawed up, leaving only a skeleton in the forest.
There is also a legend that the trees in the ghost grove are all crooked-necked trees, and each one of them has been hanged. It is not known who transplanted these trees here. Even the ghosts that they brought on the trees also lived together.
In short, the ghost forest is evil in the eyes of all students, and only those school leaders regard it as a treasure, and they regularly send people in to clean it up and apply medicine.
Lin Na told me that the locust I was looking for was planted in the ghost forest.
The reason why she knows is actually related to Wu Ming.
Lin Na knew that after Su Qian became a ghost and stayed in the special academy, she wanted to sneak to the special academy to meet Su Qian, but she was thrown back. After that, she often wandered around the edge of the woods, and Wu Ming would sometimes come to accompany her, and then tell some stories about the ghost forest and the tree species inside.
Dragon Claw Huai Wu Ming once mentioned. The reason why Lin Na remembers it so clearly. It was because Wu Ming specifically mentioned at that time that there was only this dragon claw locust in the entire ghost village.
The news brought by Lin Na was just confirmed by what Hu Hai said.
It stands to reason that I should be happy to know the whereabouts of the dragon's claw. I don't know why. I always felt that things were not that simple.
Think about it too. Breaking a branch from a tree that has hanged many people is an easy thing to do, but it can be a recipe for endless trouble.
But. Anyway, the task given by Mr. Li finally has an eyebrow.
I thanked Lin Na and turned to leave, but who knew that she stopped me again, and hesitated for a long time before asking softly: "Yan is right or wrong, when can you return those small table lamps to me?"
"Well, I'm not sure about that, but at the very least, I have to disperse the spirits above. It's just that I don't know if those little lamps will be left after dispelling the spirits. You know, it's always a scourge for some things to stay. ”
"Well, I understand that. However, I still hope that you can help. You gave me a total of more than 30 small table lamps, five of which I bought for Su Qian, and I could keep the best. The others were made by Wu Ming himself, I haven't seen them, so it doesn't matter if I keep them or not. ”
"Okay, I remember, I'll ...... when the time comes" I subconsciously agreed to Lin Na's request, but halfway through the words, I suddenly thought of a possibility, and quickly asked: "Lin Na, you said that you bought those small table lamps, and Wu Ming also got them, is it that since December last year, Wu Ming has never asked you to buy a small table lamp for Su Qian?"
"Huh......? It seems to be true. It seems that after Wu Ming brought back a small table lamp with a missing corner, he never asked me to buy anything for Su Qian, and he didn't ask for it. What's wrong, what's wrong?"
"Uh, it's okay, it's okay, I'm just asking. Okay, you're just fine, let's go back and get some rest. I'm done with it here, and I'll let the fat man send you what you want. ”
Hurriedly saying goodbye to Lin Na and the fat man, I turned around and ran briskly towards the teaching building.
Lin Na's last sentence reminded me just now, so I urgently need to verify a guess now, and if the facts prove that I guessed correctly, then I can find another person who knows the identity of the thief on the robot cat's small desk lamp.
Running all the way back to the Spirit Academy office, pushing the door in, I almost thought I had gone to the wrong door.
Today's Spirit Academy office was very lively, Liang Tianyu, Jing Han and Li Su were all there, and several people were having a good time with the other living creatures in the office, which made people feel like they had a party with no species difference at all.
I had something to do in my heart, and I didn't have time to greet them, and after I came to my senses, I rushed directly to the sofa and took out all the small table lamps that Liang Tianyu and they sent over and put them on the coffee table.
The first thing is to identify which ones have someone's soul attached to them, call the big one over and let it sniff it, and quickly sort out seven or eight problematic ones. Then plug in the power supply one by one for detection of those who have no problem, put the ones that can still be used on one side, and put the other side that cannot be used.
In less than ten minutes, three small stacks of lamps were placed in front of me separately.
The first pile is a small table lamp that has no soul attached to it, but can still be used normally, there are five in total. I think these are the five that Lin Na said she bought for Su Qian.
The second pile is a small table lamp that has no soul attached to it, but it is no longer able to be used normally, and there are many of them. If you guessed correctly, these should be used by Wu Ming to nourish Su Qian's earth soul, just because the soul on it dissipated, and even the table lamp was broken.
The third pile was the seven or eight problematic little table lamps, all of which were able to continue to be used. And every time the light is turned on, the big one will show a very obvious hostility to the light of the lamp.
At the end of the verification, it turned out that the situation of the soul attached to the small table lamp was definitely not there early on, and then combined with Old Man Huang's previous analysis and Lin Na's unintentional reminder, I guess what happened is like this.
Wu Ming wanted to turn Su Qian into a ghost raised by himself on a whim, but at that time he was not good at raising ghosts, so he could only use electric light to nourish the earth soul. But this method did not last long, so he was not in a hurry to find a new "nourishment" to raise Su Qian.
At this time, someone must have instructed him to focus on the seven souls of the human soul. Because the seven souls of people are the best items for raising ghosts.
Find out the Seven Souls of Wandering Souls at Heavenly Dao University. It shouldn't be a difficult thing, the difficult thing is how to make these things imperceptibly nourish Su Qian, and not let Su Qian find out.
The answer came out, and a small table lamp with a soul attached to it was born.
Making such a small table lamp requires a stable source of soul. Someone who specializes in cultivating ghosts and knows how to control souls is needed to assist Wu Ming. Other words. There was another person who intervened in these small soul lamps made by Wu Ming.
This person is the key person I'm looking for.
He must know where the thief devourer on the robot cat lamp comes from, because according to time, the robot cat lamp is the first small table lamp with a soul attached to it!
Validated his conjecture. I felt like I had won a battle. Because I clearly know that Wu Ming's ghost raising teacher is Dean Qin of the Ghost Academy, and at this moment, there is a student of the Ghost Academy Li Su in the office, and there is also Liang Tianyu who can contact all the leading teachers of the Special Academy.
Thinking of this, I excitedly turned my head to look for the two men, and suddenly looked up, and there were several pairs of eyes staring directly at me, and I was so frightened that I leaned back sharply.
After the shock, I realized that it was Liang Tianyu and the others who came over to observe everything I was doing.
"Damn, you guys don't make any noise, it's easy to scare people to death by staring at people like this!"
"Haha, Yan is wrong, you kid has been stunned for so long, we thought you were ghosted. How's it going, have you got any results?"
"Pretty much. Liang Tianyu, Li Su, if any of you have time to call the dean of the Ghost Academy, ask him where the Seven Souls used by the students of the Ghost Academy to practice the ghost cultivation technique came from. ”
"Okay, I'll fight. ”
Liang Tianyu was quick to speak, and after agreeing, he immediately called Dean Qin.
We first pretended to discuss academic issues and carefully sought advice, and then knocked on the side, but after never getting a clear answer, we finally had no choice but to ask directly about the small table lamp.
That Dean Qin was not ambiguous, and told us very clearly that the matter of attaching a person's soul to the table lamp was completely Wu Mingqi's head, and no one had thought of attaching the soul to a table lamp before.
These days are during the holidays, and it is impossible for us to invite Dean Qin back to "investigate the case" with us, but his words are enough for me to draw conclusions.
The attachment of the soul to the table lamp started with Wu Ming, and Wu Ming could not have thought of this out of thin air, and he would only do so if he got some kind of prompt.
The hint is that he accidentally got a small table lamp that can attach the soul of a person.
That is to say, the thief spirit on the small table lamp of the robot cat has long been there, and the day Wu Ming helped catch Sister-in-law Zhang, it was the accidental discovery that the table lamp in Sister-in-law Zhang's hand was attached to the soul of the person, so he thought of doing so, so he unknowingly left the small table lamp of the robot cat.
Therefore, the thief swallower is from a place other than the ghost village, and the only person who knows the source of the thief is Sister-in-law Zhang, but Sister-in-law Zhang doesn't want to tell me the facts!

At this time, someone must have instructed him to focus on the Seven Souls of the Human Soul, because the Seven Spirits of the Human Soul are the best items for raising ghosts.
It shouldn't be difficult to find out the seven souls of wandering human souls in Tiandao University, the difficult thing is how to let these things subtly nourish Su Qian, and not let Su Qian find out.
The answer came out, and a small table lamp with a soul attached to it was born.
